(r)Since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Time of Sale Information as of the Time of Sale or in the Prospectus as amended prior to the Time of Delivery, there shall not have been any change in the capital stock or long-term debt of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the general affairs, management, financial position, shareholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Prospectus as amended prior to the Time of Delivery, the effect of which is, in the judgment of the Underwriters, so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or the delivery of the Publicly Offered Certificates on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus as first amended or supplemented;

(s)On or after the date of this Agreement, there shall not have occurred any of the following: (i) a suspension or material limitation in trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange; (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York declared by either Federal or New York State authorities or any material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States; or (iii) the outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving the United States or the declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or the occurrence of any other calamity or crisis or any change in the financial, political or economic conditions in the United States or elsewhere, if the effect of any such event specified in this clause (iii) in the judgment of the Underwriters makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Publicly Offered Certificates on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus;

(t)The Company shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to the Underwriters at the Time of Delivery certificates of its officers satisfactory to the Underwriters as to the accuracy in all material respects of its representations and warranties herein at and as of such Time of Delivery, as to the performance of all of its obligations hereunder to be performed at or prior to such Time of Delivery and as to such other matters as the Underwriters may reasonably request;

(v)The Underwriters shall have received such further opinions, information, certificates and documents as the Underwriters may reasonably have requested, and all proceedings in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all documents incident hereto and thereto shall be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Underwriters and their counsel; and

8.(a)  The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, expenses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several (and will reimburse each Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, for any legal fees and other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action, investigation or proceeding, liability or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred), to which such Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, expenses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement when such part became effective, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or (iii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in (1) the Preliminary Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (2) any other Time of Sale Information, (3) any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or (4) any Issuer Information contained in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus, or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of clause (2) through (4) above, when read in conjunction with the other Time of Sale Information), in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, which untrue statement or omission was not corrected by Corrective Information subsequently supplied by the Company or any Mortgage Loan Seller to such Underwriter at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Time of Sale (or in the case of any Corrective Information correcting information in the Preliminary

-20- 

Prospectus (as amended or supplemented), at least 48 hours (but, in any event, no less than one (1) Business Day) prior to the date of the Time of Sale) and, if such Corrective Information was so delivered, the subject loss, expenses, claim, damage or liability would not have resulted but for the fact that such Underwriter sold Publicly Offered Certificates to the person asserting such loss, expenses, claim, damage or liability without delivering to such person such Corrective Information prior to the Time of Sale; or (iv) any breach of the representation and warranty in Section 1(x) or Section 1(y); provided, however, that, in the case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, expense, claim, damage or liability is caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission with respect to any Underwriter Information or Other Transaction Participant Information.

(b)Each Underwriter shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, expenses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or its affiliates, directors or officers or any person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, but only insofar as such losses, expenses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) untrue statements or alleged untrue statements of a material fact, or omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in the Underwriter Information with respect to such Underwriter; and (ii) untrue statements or alleged untrue statements of a material fact in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter or omission or alleged omission to state in such Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein (when read in conjunction with the Time of Sale Information), in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided that no Underwriter shall be obligated to so indemnify and hold harmless the Company to the extent such losses, expenses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (A) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission with respect to any Issuer Information, or (B) information (other than the Underwriter Information) that is also contained in the Time of Sale Information.

(c)Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such Section, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under such subsection (a) or (b), as the case may be, except to the extent that such omission to notify materially prejudices the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will be relieved of its indemnification obligation only to the extent of any loss caused by the indemnified party’s failure to provide notice) and in no event relieves it of liability it may otherwise have to any indemnified party. Upon request of the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party) to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and

-21- 

shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding as incurred. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 8 for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and other than under the circumstances described in clauses (i) through (iii) of the next sentence. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them or (iii) the indemnifying party shall have failed to designate within a reasonable period of time counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (in which case the fees and expenses shall be paid as incurred by the indemnifying party). In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). However, if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party shall indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing two sentences, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel for which the indemnifying party has agreed under this Section 8(c), the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. If an indemnifying party assumes the defense of any proceeding, it shall be entitled to settle such proceeding with the consent of the indemnified party or, if such settlement (i) provides for an unconditional release of the indemnified party in connection with all matters relating to the proceeding that have been asserted against the indemnified party in such proceeding by the other parties to such settlement and (ii) does not require or contain a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the indemnified party, without the consent of the indemnified party.

(d)If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or Section 8(b) above in respect of any losses, expenses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by

-22- 

such indemnified party as a result of such losses, expenses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Publicly Offered Certificates subject to this Agreement. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under Section 8(c) of this Agreement, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, expenses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the sale of the Publicly Offered Certificates to the Underwriters (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting fees, discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission and any other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purposes) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 8(d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute or deemed to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total fees, purchase discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter in connection with the offering of the Publicly Offered Certificates exceeds the amount of damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligation under this Section 8(d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint. The remedies provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(e)The obligations of the Company under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each affiliate, officer and director of any Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of each Underwriter under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which such Underwriter may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each affiliate, officer and director of the Company and to each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act.

-23- 

(f) The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, expenses, claims, damages or other liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in this Section 8 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim, which expenses the indemnifying party shall pay as and when incurred at the request of the indemnified party. In the event that any expenses so paid by the indemnifying party are subsequently determined to not be required to be borne by the indemnifying party hereunder, the party which received such payment shall promptly refund the amount so paid to the party which made such payment.

(g)The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Underwriters as set forth in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigations (or any statements as to the results thereof) made in connection with the issuance of the Publicly Offered Certificates by or on behalf of the Underwriters or any officer or director or controlling person of an Underwriter, or the Company, or any officer, director or controlling person of the Company and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Publicly Offered Certificates. The provisions of Section 6 of this Agreement and the indemnity and contribution agreements in this Section 8 shall survive the termination and cancellation of this Agreement.

(h)Each Underwriter (the “Indemnifying Underwriter”) will indemnify and hold harmless the other Underwriters, each affiliate, officer and director of any such other Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any such other Underwriter within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (such indemnified parties, individually and collectively, the “Non-Indemnifying Underwriter”) from and against any and all losses, expenses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Non-Indemnifying Underwriter becomes subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, common law or otherwise insofar as such losses, expenses, claims, damages or liabilities, (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission (when read in conjunction with the Time of Sale Information) to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading at the Time of Sale, contained in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus prepared by such Indemnifying Underwriter, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact regarding the Indemnifying Underwriter contained in the Underwriter Information or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein regarding the Indemnifying Underwriter or necessary to make the statements therein regarding the Indemnifying Underwriter, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (iii) the failure of such Indemnifying Underwriter, or any member of its selling group, to comply with any provision of Section 11 of this Agreement, and agrees to reimburse such Non-Indemnifying Underwriter, as incurred for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, except to the extent such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by a misstatement or omission resulting from an error or omission in the Issuer Information which was not corrected by Corrective Information subsequently supplied by the Company or any Mortgage Loan Seller to such Underwriter at least one (1) Business Day prior to the Time of Sale (or in the case of any Corrected Supplement, at least 48 hours (but, in any event, no less than one

-24- 

(1) Business Day) prior to the date of the Time of Sale), or in any Other Transaction Participant Information. This agreement will be in addition to any liability that any Underwriter may otherwise have.

9.(a)  If any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to purchase Publicly Offered Certificates which it has agreed to purchase hereunder, the non-defaulting Underwriters may in their discretion arrange for any of them or another party or other parties to purchase such Certificates on the terms contained herein. If within thirty-six hours after such default by any Underwriter the non-defaulting Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such Certificates, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of thirty-six hours within which to procure another party or other parties satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such Certificates on such terms. In the event that, within the respective prescribed periods, the non-defaulting Underwriters notify the Company that they have so arranged for the purchase of such Certificates, or the Company notifies the non-defaulting Underwriters that it has so arranged for the purchase of such Certificates, the non-defaulting Underwriters or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Time of Delivery for a period of not more than seven days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any other documents or arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendments to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which in the opinion of the non-defaulting Underwriters may thereby be made necessary. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this Section with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Certificates.

(b)If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Publicly Offered Certificates of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company as provided in Section 9(a) of this Agreement, the aggregate principal balance of such Publicly Offered Certificates which remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal balance of all the Publicly Offered Certificates, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the principal balance of Publicly Offered Certificates which such non-defaulting Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder and, in addition, to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase its pro rata share (based on the principal balance of Publicly Offered Certificates which such non-defaulting Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Publicly Offered Certificates of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

(c)If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Publicly Offered Certificates of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the Company as provided in subsection (a) of this Section 9, the aggregate principal balance of such Publicly Offered Certificates which remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal balance of all the Publicly Offered Certificates, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in subsection (b) of this Section 9 to require non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase Publicly Offered Certificates of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, then this Agreement shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except for the expenses to be borne by the Company and the Underwriters as provided in Section 6 of this Agreement and the indemnity and

-25- 

contribution agreements in Section 8 of this Agreement; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

10.If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement, the Company shall not be under any liability to any Underwriter except as provided in Section 6 and Section 8 of this Agreement; but if for any reason the Publicly Offered Certificates are not delivered by or on behalf of the Trustee as provided herein, other than by several Underwriters’ failure to comply with its obligations hereunder, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in making preparations for the purchase, sale and delivery of the Publicly Offered Certificates, but the Company shall be under no further liability to any Underwriter with respect to such Certificates except as provided in Section 6 and Section 8 of this Agreement.

(i)Unless preceded or accompanied by the Prospectus, the Underwriters shall not convey or deliver any written communication to any person in connection with the initial offering of the Publicly Offered Certificates, unless such written communication (1) is made in reliance on Rule 134 under the Securities Act, (2) is made in reliance on Rule 172 under the Securities Act, (3) is the Time of Sale Information or the Prospectus or (4) constitutes a Free Writing Prospectus that does not constitute Time of Sale Information.

(ii)Each Underwriter shall deliver to the Company, no later than two business days prior to the date of first use thereof or such later date as may be agreed to by the Company that allows the Company to satisfy the requirements of Rule 433 under the Securities Act, (a) any Free Writing Prospectus that was prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter (an “Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus”) and that contains any “issuer information,” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act and footnote 271 of the Commission’s Securities Offering Reform Release No. 33-8591 (“Issuer Information”) (which the parties hereto agree includes, without limitation, Mortgage Loan Seller Information), and (b) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter that contains only a description of the final terms of the Publicly Offered Certificates.

(iii)Each Underwriter represents and warrants to the Company that the Free Writing Prospectuses to be furnished to the Company by such Underwriter pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) of this Agreement will constitute all Free Writing Prospectuses of the type described therein that were furnished to prospective investors by such Underwriter in connection with its offer and sale of the Publicly Offered Certificates.

(iv)Each Underwriter represents and warrants to the Company that each Free Writing Prospectus required to be provided by it to the Company pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) of this Agreement did not, as of the Time of Sale, and will not as of the Closing Date, include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit any material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein (when read in conjunction with the Time of Sale Information), in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided however, that such Underwriter makes no representation to the extent such misstatements or omissions were the result of any inaccurate Issuer Information or Other Transaction Participant Information, which information was not corrected by Corrective Information subsequently supplied by the Company or any other party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Seller to such Underwriter within a reasonable period of time prior to the Time of Sale.

(v)The Company agrees to file with the Commission the following:

-27- 

of the later of the date such final terms have been established for all classes of Publicly Offered Certificates and the date of first use;

(B)Any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof required to be filed that contains only ABS Informational and Computational Material shall be filed by the Company with the Commission not later than the later of the due date for filing the Prospectus relating to the Publicly Offered Certificates pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act and two business days after the date of first use of such Free Writing Prospectus; and

(C)Any Free Writing Prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Section 11(a)(v)(C) of this Agreement shall, if no payment has been made or consideration has been given by or on behalf of the Company for such Free Writing Prospectus or its dissemination, be filed by the Company with the Commission not later than four business days after the Company becomes aware of the publication, radio or television broadcast or other dissemination of such Free Writing Prospectus.

(vii)Each Underwriter (with the reasonable cooperation of the Company) shall file with the Commission, or provide to the Company at least 2 Business Days prior to the time such filing is required (and the Company shall file with the Commission), any Free Writing Prospectus (other than a Free Writing Prospectus required to be delivered to the Company pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) of this Agreement) that is neither an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus nor contains Issuer Information and that is used or referred to by it and distributed by or on behalf of such Underwriter in a manner reasonably designed to lead to its broad, unrestricted dissemination not later than the date of the first use of such Free Writing Prospectus.

(viii)Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11(a)(vii) of this Agreement, each Underwriter shall file, or cause to be filed, with the Commission any Free Writing Prospectus for which such Underwriter or any person acting on its behalf provided, authorized or approved information that is prepared and published or disseminated by a person unaffiliated with the Company or any other offering participant that is in the business of publishing, radio or television broadcasting or otherwise disseminating written communications and for which no payment was made or consideration given by or on behalf of the Company or any other offering participant, not later than four business days after such Underwriter becomes aware of the publication, radio or television broadcast or other dissemination of such Free Writing Prospectus.

(ix)Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 11(a)(v) (other than Section 11(a)(v)(C)), 11(a)(vii) and 11(a)(viii) of this Agreement: (A) neither the Company nor any Underwriter shall be required to file (1) any Free Writing Prospectus that does not contain substantive changes from or additions to a Free Writing Prospectus previously filed with the Commission, (2) any Free Writing Prospectus or portion thereof that contains a description of the Publicly Offered Certificates or the offering of the Publicly Offered Certificates which does not reflect the final terms thereof or (3) any Issuer Information contained in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus or Free Writing

The depositor has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the SEC for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and other documents the depositor has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the depositor, the issuing trust, and this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC Web site at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, the depositor, any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request it by calling toll-free 1-866-864-7760.

(xi)In the event that the Company becomes aware that, as of the Time of Sale, the Preliminary Prospectus contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Company shall (i) notify the Underwriters thereof within one business day after discovery, (ii) prepare and deliver to the Underwriters a supplement to the Preliminary Prospectus that corrects the material misstatement or omission in the Preliminary Prospectus and that meets the requirements of Rule 424(h)(2) under the Securities Act (such supplement, a “Corrected Supplement”) and (iii) file such Corrected Supplement with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424(h) under the Securities Act. Upon receipt of such notice from the Company, the Underwriters shall:

(A)Notify each investor in the Publicly Offered Certificates in a prompt fashion that any prior contract of sale with such investor has been terminated, and of such investor’s rights as a result of termination of such agreement;

(B)Upon receipt of a copy of such Corrected Supplement from the Company, deliver, at least 48 hours prior to sending a new confirmation of sale to an investor in the Publicly Offered Certificates in accordance with Rule 15c2-8(b) under the Exchange Act, such Corrected Supplement to such investor;

(C)Provide such investor with an opportunity to enter into a new contract of sale on the terms described in the Time of Sale Information (as updated by such Corrected Supplement); and

(xii)The Company and each Underwriter agree to retain all Free Writing Prospectuses that they have used and that are not required to be filed pursuant to this Section 11 for a period of three years following the initial bona fide offering of the Publicly Offered Certificates.

(xiii)(A) In the event that the Company becomes aware that, as of the Time of Sale, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein (when read in conjunction with the Time of Sale Information), in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (a “Defective Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”), the Company shall notify the Underwriters of such untrue statement or omission within one business day after discovery and the Company shall, if requested by the Underwriters, prepare and deliver to the Underwriters a Free Writing Prospectus that corrects the material misstatement or omission in the Defective Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (such corrected Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, a “Corrected Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”).

(B)In the event that any Underwriter becomes aware that, as of the Time of Sale, any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus delivered to an investor in any Publicly Offered Certificates contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein (when read in conjunction with the Time of Sale Information), in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (together with a Defective Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, a “Defective Free Writing Prospectus”), such Underwriter shall notify the Company of such untrue statement or omission within one business day after discovery.

(C)The Underwriters shall, if requested by the Company:

(1)if the Defective Free Writing Prospectus was an Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus, prepare a Free Writing Prospectus that corrects the material misstatement in or omission from the Defective Free Writing Prospectus (together with a Corrected Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, a “Corrected Free Writing Prospectus”);

(2)either (i) deliver the Corrected Free Writing Prospectus to each investor which received the Defective Free Writing Prospectus prior to entering into a contract of sale with such investor, clearly identifying or highlighting the Corrective Information, or (ii) deliver the Corrected Free Writing Prospectus to each investor that received the Defective Free Writing Prospectus and has entered into a contract of sale, clearly identifying or highlighting the Corrective Information;

-30- 

(3) notify such investor in a prominent fashion that the prior contract of sale with the investor has been terminated, and of the investor’s rights as a result of termination of such agreement;

(4)provide such investor with an opportunity to affirmatively agree to purchase the Publicly Offered Certificates on the terms described in the Corrected Free Writing Prospectus; and

(5)comply with any other requirements for reformation of the original contract of sale with such investor, as described in Section IV.A.2.c of Commission’s Securities Offering Reform Release No. 33-8591.

(D)In the event that the Defective Free Writing Prospectus was an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, and the Underwriters shall in good faith incur any costs to an investor in connection with the reformation of the contract of sale with the investor, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for such costs; provided that, before incurring such costs, the Underwriters first permit the Company access to the applicable investor and an opportunity to attempt to mitigate such costs through direct negotiation with such investor.

(xiv)Each Underwriter covenants with the Company that after the Prospectus is available such Underwriter shall not distribute any written information concerning the Publicly Offered Certificates to a prospective investor unless such information is preceded or accompanied by the Prospectus.

12.(a)  Any Underwriter may terminate its obligations under this Agreement by notice to the Company at any time at or prior to the Time of Delivery if the sale of the Publicly Offered Certificates provided for herein is not consummated because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(b)The obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Publicly Offered Certificates shall be terminable by the Underwriters if at any time on or prior to the Time of Delivery: (i) any change, or any development or event involving a prospective change, in the condition (financial or other), business, properties or results of operations of the Company or the Trust Fund which, in the judgment of the Underwriters, is material and adverse and makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the public offering or the sale of and payment for the Publicly Offered Certificates; (ii) any downgrading in the rating of any of the Publicly Offered Certificates by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as defined under the Exchange Act), or any public announcement that any such organization has under surveillance or review its rating of any of the Publicly Offered Certificates (other than an announcement with positive implications of a possible upgrading, and no implication of a possible downgrading, of such rating); (iii) any change in U.S. or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls as would, in the judgment of the Underwriters, be likely to prejudice materially the success of the proposed issue, sale or distribution of the Publicly Offered Certificates, whether in the primary market or in respect of

-31- 

dealings in the secondary market; (iv) any material suspension or material limitation of trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or any over-the-counter market, or any setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange or market, or any suspension of trading of any Publicly Offered Certificates on any relevant exchange or in the over-the-counter market; (v) any general moratorium on commercial banking activities declared by any Federal or New York State authorities; (vi) any major disruption of settlements of securities or clearance services in the United States; or (vii) any attack on, outbreak or escalation of hostilities or act of terrorism involving the United States, any declaration of war by Congress or any other national or international calamity or emergency if, in the judgment of the Underwriters, the effect of any such attack, outbreak, escalation, act, declaration, calamity or emergency makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the offering or the sale of any payment for the Publicly Offered Certificates.

(c)If any Underwriter terminates its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with Section 12(a) of this Agreement, the Company shall reimburse such Underwriter for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Publicly Offered Certificates.

(d)After a BHC Act Affiliate of the Company has become subject to an Insolvency Proceeding, if an Underwriter seeks to exercise any Default Right with respect to this Agreement or any Covered Affiliate Credit Enhancement, such Underwriter shall have the burden of proof, by clear and convincing evidence, that the exercise of such Default Right is permitted hereunder or thereunder.

Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024, among BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Trustee.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

(Terms used but not defined in this Preliminary
Statement shall have the meanings
specified in Article I hereof)

The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates to be issued hereunder in multiple classes which in the aggregate, together with the Uncertificated Interests, will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund consisting primarily of the Mortgage Loans and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans. As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator will elect that various segregated portions of the Trust Fund (other than any VRR Specific Grantor Trust Assets and any Class S Specific Grantor Trust Assets) be treated for federal income tax purposes as two separate REMICs designated as the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC”, respectively, and a separate REMIC in connection with each Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, if any, each designated as a “Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC”.

In addition, the parties intend that the portion of the Trust Fund consisting of any VRR Specific Grantor Trust Assets and any Class S Specific Grantor Trust Assets will be treated as a grantor trust under subpart E of Part I of subchapter J of the Code. Solely for federal income tax purposes, the Combined VRR Interest shall represent undivided beneficial interests in any VRR Specific Grantor Trust Assets, and the Class S Certificates shall represent undivided beneficial interests in any Class S Specific Grantor Trust Assets. However, because the Trust Fund will not include ARD Mortgage Loans as of the Closing Date, there will not be any VRR Specific Grantor Trust Assets or Class S Specific Grantor Trust Assets, and no Excess Interest Distribution Account will be established. Accordingly, there will not be a Grantor Trust and all references in this Agreement to “Grantor Trust” shall be disregarded.

LOAN REMIC

The Trust Fund will not include any Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan or Loan REMIC as of the Closing Date, and there will be no REMIC Declaration, Loan REMIC, Loan REMIC Regular Interest, Loan REMIC Residual Interest with respect to the Trust. Accordingly, all references in this Agreement to “Loan REMIC”, “Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan”, “Loan REMIC Regular Interest”, “Loan REMIC Residual Interest”, “Loan REMIC Residual Distribution Account” and “REMIC Declaration” shall be disregarded.

TRUST SUBORDINATE COMPANION LOAN REMIC(S)

For the avoidance of doubt, the Trust Fund will not include any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans. Accordingly, no separate REMIC elections will be made as to any Trust

  - 1 -  

 

Subordinate Companion Loan, and no Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMICs, Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Residual Interests shall exist.

LOWER-TIER REMIC

The Lower-Tier REMIC will hold the Loan REMIC Regular Interest (if any) and, except for the Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loans (if any), the Mortgage Loans (exclusive of any Excess Interest) and will issue (i) 11 classes of uncertificated Lower-Tier Regular Interests (designated as the Class LA-1, Class LA-2, Class LA-3, Class LA-S, Class LB, Class LC, Class LD, Class LE, Class LF, Class LG-RR and Class LJ-RR Lower-Tier Regular Interests, respectively), each of which will constitute a class of “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC, (ii) only if the table in the next paragraph indicates that it has an original Lower-Tier Principal Balance greater than zero, an additional class of uncertificated Lower-Tier Regular Interests (designated as the Class LVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest), which (if issued) will constitute a class of “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC, (iii) only if the table in the next paragraph indicates that it has an original Lower-Tier Principal Balance greater than zero, an additional class of uncertificated Lower-Tier Regular Interests (designated as the LUVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest), which (if issued) will constitute a class of “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC, and (iv) the Lower-Tier Residual Interest, which will be the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC and will be evidenced by the Class R Certificates. For the avoidance of doubt, no Class LVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest or LUVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall be issued on the Closing Date, and any references to “Class LVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest” or “LUVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest” in this Agreement shall be disregarded.

The following table sets forth the per annum rate at which interest will accrue on, and the original Lower-Tier Principal Balance of, each Lower-Tier Regular Interest:

The Upper-Tier REMIC will hold the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests and will issue (i) the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates, each class of which evidences a class of “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC, (ii) only if the table in the next paragraph indicates that it has an original Certificate Balance greater than zero, the Class VRR Certificates, which (if issued) will evidence a class of “regular interests” in the Upper Tier REMIC, (iii) only if the table in the next paragraph indicates that it has an original Certificate Balance greater than zero, the Uncertificated VRR Interest, which (if issued) will be a class of “regular interests” in the Upper Tier REMIC, (iv) the Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D and Class X-F Certificates, each class of which evidences one or more classes of “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC, (v) any Loan-Specific Certificates, each class of which evidences a class of “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC, (vi) any Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interests, each of which will be a class of “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC, and (vii) the Upper-Tier Residual Interest, which will be the sole class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC and will also be evidenced by the Class R Certificates. For the avoidance of doubt, no Class VRR Certificates, Uncertificated VRR Interest, Loan-Specific Certificates or Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interests shall be issued on the Closing Date, and any references to “Class VRR Certificates”, “Uncertificated VRR Interest”, “Loan-Specific Certificates”, “Loan-Specific Certificate”, “Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interests” or “Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest” in this Agreement shall be disregarded.

The following table sets forth the approximate initial pass-through rate and the original Certificate Balance or, in the case of each Class of the Interest-Only Trust Certificates, the original Notional Amount, or, in the case of each Uncertificated Interest, the original Uncertificated Interest Balance, as applicable, for each Class of Regular Certificates, each Class of any Loan-Specific Certificates and each Uncertificated Interest:

(1)   The Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D and Class X-F Certificates will not have Certificate Balances; rather, each such Class of Certificates will accrue interest as provided herein on the related Notional Amount.

 

(2)        Other than for tax reporting purposes, the Class VRR Certificates will not have a Pass-Through Rate, but will be entitled to interest on any Distribution Date equal to a pro rata portion of the VRR Interest Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date as set forth in Section 4.01(c). For tax reporting purposes, the Class VRR Certificates will accrue interest at the WAC Rate in effect from time to time.

 

(3)        $0 is also the initial Combined VRR Interest Balance.

 

(4)        Other than for tax reporting purposes, the Uncertificated VRR Interest will not have a Pass-Through Rate, but will be entitled to interest on any Distribution Date equal to a pro rata portion of the VRR Interest Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date as set forth in Section 4.01(c). For tax reporting purposes, the Uncertificated VRR Interest will accrue interest at the WAC Rate in effect from time to time.

The Upper-Tier Residual Interest will not have a Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Aggregate Available Funds remaining in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, after all required distributions under this Agreement have been made with respect to the Regular Certificates, the Loan-Specific Certificates and the Uncertificated Interests, will be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Upper-Tier Residual Interest.

The following table sets forth, with respect to each Class of Principal Balance Certificates, each Class of any Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates and each Uncertificated Interest, the corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest (the “Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest”) or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interest (the “Corresponding Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interest”), as applicable, and any corresponding component of the Interest-Only Trust Certificates (the “Corresponding Component”). Each Class of Principal Balance Certificates constitutes the “Corresponding Certificates” with respect to each of the Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest and the Corresponding Component (if any) for that Class. The Uncertificated VRR Interest is deemed to be the “Corresponding Certificates” with respect to the LUVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest. Each Class of any Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates constitutes the “Corresponding Certificates” with respect to the Corresponding Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interest and the Corresponding Component (if any) for that Class. Each Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest (if any) is deemed to constitute the “Corresponding Certificates” with respect to the Corresponding Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interest for that Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest. For the avoidance of doubt, no Class VRR Certificates, Uncertificated VRR Interest, Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates or Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interests shall be issued on

CREDIT RISK RETENTION

Certificates

AREF2 will be the “retaining sponsor” (as such term is defined in Regulation RR) for the securitization transaction constituted by the securitization of the Mortgage Pool and the issuance of the Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest (if any).

On the Closing Date, Argentic Securities Holdings 2 Cayman Limited (the “Argentic MOA”), a “majority-owned affiliate” (as defined in the Regulation RR) of AREF2, will acquire from the Depositor an “eligible vertical interest” (as such term is defined in Regulation RR) in the form of Certificates representing approximately 2.9505% of the Certificate Balance or the Notional Amount, as applicable, of each Class of Regular Certificates (collectively, the “Argentic VRR Interest Portion” or the “VRR Interest”).

On the Closing Date, the Argentic MOA is purchasing from the Initial Purchasers an “eligible horizontal residual interest” (as such term is defined in Regulation RR) in the form of the Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates (excluding the portion comprising the VRR Interest). The Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates that the Argentic MOA is purchasing are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “HRR Interest”.

Loan-Specific Certificates

For the avoidance of doubt, the Trust Fund will not include any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans, and no Loan-Specific Certificates or Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interests will be issued. Accordingly, there will not be a “retaining sponsor” (as such term is defined in Regulation RR) or any required risk retention for a securitization transaction constituted by the securitization of a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan and the issuance, offer and sale of the related Loan-Specific Certificates.

As of the Cut-Off Date, the Mortgage Loans have an aggregate Stated Principal Balance equal to approximately $862,941,672. As of the Cut-Off Date, there are no Trust Subordinate Companion Loans in the Trust Fund, and therefore the Stated Principal Balance thereof is $0.

Promptly upon knowledge of the occurrence of an Appraisal Reduction Event (or a longer period so long as the Special Servicer is (as certified thereby to the Trustee in writing) diligently and in good faith proceeding to obtain such), if an Appraisal has not been obtained within the immediately preceding nine (9) months (or if the Special Servicer has determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard such Appraisal to be materially inaccurate), the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to obtain an Appraisal, the costs of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Property Advance (or as an expense of the Trust Fund and paid by the Master Servicer out of the Collection Account if such Property Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance), or conduct an internal valuation, as applicable, in accordance with Section 3.10(a) of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall provide (via electronic delivery) the Special Servicer with information in its possession that is reasonably required to calculate or recalculate any Appraisal Reduction Amount pursuant to this definition

  - 17 -  

 

using reasonable efforts to deliver such information within four (4) Business Days of the Special Servicer’s reasonable written request. None of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall calculate or verify Appraisal Reduction Amounts. On the first Determination Date that is at least 10 Business Days following the receipt of such Appraisal or the conducting of an internal valuation, the Special Servicer shall calculate or adjust, as applicable, the Appraisal Reduction Amount to take into account such Appraisal or internal valuation, as applicable, and such information, if any, reasonably requested by the Special Servicer from the Master Servicer reasonably required to calculate or recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Appraisal is required to be obtained in accordance with Section 3.10(a) of this Agreement but is not obtained and, if permitted, an internal valuation has not been conducted, within 120 days following the events described in the applicable clause of the definition “Appraisal Reduction Event” (without regard to the time periods stated therein), then, until such Appraisal is obtained or, if permitted, such internal valuation is conducted and solely for purposes of determining the amounts of P&I Advances, the Appraisal Reduction Amount for or allocable to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan that includes a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, for such Serviced Whole Loan) will be deemed to be an amount equal to 25% of the then current Stated Principal Balance of such related Serviced Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan that includes a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, of such Serviced Whole Loan); provided that, upon receipt of an Appraisal, or, if permitted, completion of an internal valuation, however, the Appraisal Reduction Amount for such Serviced Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan) will be recalculated in accordance with this definition without regard to this sentence. With respect to each Serviced Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred (unless the Serviced Loan has become a Corrected Loan (if a Servicing Transfer Event had occurred with respect to the related Serviced Loan) and has remained current for three consecutive Monthly Payments, and with respect to which no other Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred during the preceding three months), the Special Servicer shall, within 30 days of each anniversary of such Appraisal Reduction Event, order an Appraisal (which may be an update of the prior Appraisal) (the cost of which will be covered by, and reimbursable as, a Property Advance by the Master Servicer or as an expense of the Trust Fund and paid by the Master Servicer out of the Collection Account if such Property Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance) or, if applicable, conduct an internal valuation, provided, however, no new or updated Appraisal or internal valuation will be required if the Serviced Loan or REO Property is under contract to be sold within 90 days of such Appraisal Reduction Event or anniversary thereof and the Special Servicer reasonably believes such sale is likely to close. Based upon such Appraisal or letter updates thereto, or, if applicable, an internal valuation, the Special Servicer shall determine and report to the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator the Appraisal Reduction Amount, if any, with respect to such Serviced Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), and each of those parties shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such determination by the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such Appraisal or internal valuation to the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, which shall be in electronic format. Each Appraisal Reduction Amount shall also be adjusted with respect to the next Distribution Date to take into account any subsequent Appraisal and annual letter updates or, if applicable, any subsequent internal valuation, as of the date of each such subsequent Appraisal or letter update or, if applicable, internal valuation.

Upon payment in full or liquidation of any Serviced Loan for which an Appraisal Reduction Amount has been determined, such Appraisal Reduction Amount will be eliminated.

  - 18 -  

 

In addition, with respect to any Serviced Loan, as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred, such Serviced Loan shall no longer be subject to the Appraisal Reduction Amount if (a) such Serviced Loan has become a Corrected Loan (if a Servicing Transfer Event had occurred with respect to the related Serviced Loan) and such Serviced Loan becomes and remains current for three consecutive Monthly Payments and (b) no other Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Serviced Loan.

Appraisal Reduction Amounts with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan shall be allocated, first, to any related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan(s) (up to the outstanding principal balance(s) thereof), and then, to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) on a pro rata and pari passu basis in accordance with the respective outstanding principal balances of such Serviced Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if so provided in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the holder of a Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan may be permitted to post cash or a letter of credit to offset all or some portion of an Appraisal Reduction Amount.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Appraisal Reduction Amount shall be the portion of any “appraisal reduction amount” relating to such Outside Serviced Whole Loan, that is calculated pursuant to the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement by the related Outside Special Servicer or related Outside Servicer, as applicable, and that is allocable to such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan pursuant to such Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement. The parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on such calculations as reported to them by the related Outside Servicer. The Uncertificated Interest Owners and, by their acceptance of their Trust Certificates, the Trust Certificateholders shall be deemed to have acknowledged that the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement, taken together, provide that any such “appraisal reduction amount” will be calculated under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement by the applicable party thereto.

“Appraisal Reduction Event”: With respect to any Serviced Loan, the earliest of (i) the date on which such Serviced Loan becomes a Modified Asset, (ii) the date on which such Serviced Loan is 60 days or more delinquent in respect of any Monthly Payment, which does not include a Balloon Payment, (iii) solely in the case of a delinquent Balloon Payment, (A) the date occurring 30 days after the date on which such Balloon Payment was due (except as described in the immediately following clause (B)) or (B) if the related Mortgagor has delivered to the Master Servicer (who shall promptly deliver a copy thereof to the Special Servicer) or the Special Servicer (who shall promptly deliver a copy thereof to the Master Servicer) a signed purchase agreement or a refinancing commitment acceptable to the Special Servicer prior to the date 30 days after the Balloon Payment was due, the date occurring 120 days after the date on which the Balloon Payment was due (or such shorter period beyond the date on which that Balloon Payment was due during which the refinancing is scheduled to occur), (iv) the date on which the related Mortgaged Property has become an REO Property, (v) a receiver or similar official is appointed and continues for 60 days in such capacity in respect of the related Mortgaged Property, (vi) 60 days after the related Mortgagor is subject to a bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings, which, in the case of an involuntary bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, is not dismissed within those 60 days, or (vii) the date on which such Serviced Loan remains outstanding five (5) years following any extension of its maturity date pursuant to Section 3.24 of this Agreement. If an

  - 19 -  

 

Appraisal Reduction Event occurs with respect to any Serviced Mortgage Loan that is part of a Serviced Whole Loan, then an Appraisal Reduction Event shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan(s). If an Appraisal Reduction Event occurs with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan that is part of a Serviced Whole Loan, then an Appraisal Reduction Event shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan and any other Serviced Companion Loan(s) included as part of that Serviced Whole Loan. No Appraisal Reduction Event may occur at any time when the aggregate Certificate Balance of all Classes of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates (other than the Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Certificates) and, solely in the case of a Trust Subordinate Whole Loan, the related Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates, have been reduced to zero.

If issued, the Uncertificated VRR Interest will constitute a class of “regular interests”, within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(1), in the Upper-Tier REMIC. If there had been VRR Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Uncertificated VRR Interest would have evidenced an undivided beneficial interest in a portion of such VRR Specific Grantor Trust Assets. For the avoidance of doubt, no Uncertificated VRR Interest will be issued, and all references in this Agreement to “Uncertificated VRR Interest” shall be disregarded.

“Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance”: With respect to the Uncertificated VRR Interest, (a) as of any date of determination on or prior to the first Distribution Date, an amount equal to the initial Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance of the Uncertificated VRR Interest as specified in the Preliminary Statement hereto, and (b) as of any date of determination after the first Distribution Date, an amount equal to the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance of the Uncertificated VRR Interest on the Distribution Date immediately prior to such date of determination, after any actual distributions of principal thereon and allocations of applicable Realized Losses thereto on such prior Distribution Date, and after any increases to the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance on such prior Distribution Date (as and to the extent provided in Section 4.01(g) of this Agreement) in connection with recoveries of Nonrecoverable Advances previously reimbursed out of collections of principal on the Mortgage Loans. For avoidance of doubt, no Uncertificated VRR Interest shall be issued under this Agreement, and accordingly, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance shall at all times equal zero.

“Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner”: Any Person in whose name the Uncertificated VRR Interest is registered on the Certificate Register or other registry of ownership maintained by the Certificate Administrator. For avoidance of doubt, no Uncertificated VRR Interest shall be issued under this Agreement, and accordingly, there will be no

Amounts due on the predecessor Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, including any portion of those amounts payable or reimbursable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, will continue to be “due” in respect of the REO Loan; and amounts received in respect of the related REO Property, net of payments to be made, or reimbursements to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer for payments previously advanced, in connection with the operation and management of that property, generally will be applied by the Master Servicer as if received on the predecessor Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable.

For purposes of this Agreement, each Class of Certificates (other than the Class S and Class R Certificates) shall be deemed to be outstanding only to the extent its respective Certificate Balance or Notional Amount has not been reduced to zero. For purposes of this Agreement, the Class R Certificates shall be deemed to be outstanding so long as the Trust REMICs have not been terminated pursuant to Section 9.01 of this Agreement.

(b)               For purposes of this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires:

(i)                  the terms defined in this Agreement include the plural as well as the singular, and the use of any gender herein shall be deemed to include the other gender;

(iii)              a reference to a Subsection without further reference to a Section is a reference to such Subsection as contained in the same Section in which the reference appears, and this rule shall also apply to Paragraphs and other subdivisions;

(iv)               the words “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder”, “hereto”, “hereby” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision; and

(v)                 the terms “include” or “including” shall mean without limitation by reason of enumeration.

(c)               For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any indemnification provisions in this Agreement providing that the Trust is required to indemnify a party to this Agreement, or a party to this Agreement is required to indemnify the Trust or another party to this Agreement, for costs, fees and expenses, such costs, fees and expenses are intended to include costs (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) of the enforcement of such indemnity.

This subsection (c) shall not apply to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan because the documents referred to herein have been assigned to the related Outside Trustee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan: (A) the instruments of assignment referred to in clauses (4), (5) and (14) in the definition of “Mortgage File” may be in blank and need not be recorded pursuant to this Agreement (to the extent recordation would have otherwise been required) until the earliest of (i) the related Servicing Shift Date, in which case such instruments shall be completed and, if applicable, recorded in accordance with the related Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of photocopies of any such instruments of assignment so completed and recorded to the Custodian, (ii) such Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan prior to the related Servicing Shift Date, in which case such assignments shall be completed and, if applicable, recorded in accordance with this Agreement upon such occurrence, and (iii) the expiration of 180 days following the Closing Date, in which case assignments shall be completed and, if applicable, recordations shall be effected in accordance with this Agreement upon such occurrence; and (B) on or promptly following the related Servicing Shift Date and upon the transfer of servicing of the related Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan to the related Outside Servicing Agreement in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement, the Custodian shall deliver the originals of all documents constituting the related Mortgage File and any other related Loan Documents (if not a part of the related Mortgage File) in its possession (other than the documents described in clause (1) of the definition of “Mortgage File”) to the related Outside Trustee or the Outside Custodian; provided

  - 169 -  

 

that, prior to the delivery of any such original documents to the related Outside Trustee or Outside Custodian, the Custodian shall make and retain photocopies of any and all documents so delivered to the related Outside Trustee or the Outside Custodian; and provided, further, that, to the extent any instruments of assignment that are part of the Mortgage File have been recorded or filed pursuant to this Agreement prior to the related Servicing Shift Date, the Trustee shall execute and deliver assignments to the Outside Trustee.

The Depositor hereby represents and warrants that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has covenanted in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement as to each Mortgage Loan (exclusive of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, that if it cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3) and (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, a copy of the original certified by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording, shall be forwarded to the Custodian. Each assignment referred to in the prior paragraph that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in the previous paragraph shall reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee, in which case the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof.

If the Custodian has received written notice that any of the aforementioned assignments is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Custodian shall direct the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) promptly to prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and to record or file, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Mortgage Loan Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described above, to deliver to such third party the substitute or corrected document.

(d)               In connection with the Depositor’s assignment pursuant to Section 2.01(a) of this Agreement, except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Depositor shall direct the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) to deliver to and deposit with (or cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date: (i) a copy of the Mortgage File; (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, the Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and any other related Serviced Companion Loan(s), (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any asset summaries related to the Mortgage Loans that were delivered to the Rating

The Master Servicer shall hold all such documents, records and funds on behalf of the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Loan-Specific Certificateholders (if applicable) and the Uncertificated Interest Owners (and, insofar as they also relate to a Serviced Companion Loan held outside the Trust, on behalf of and for the benefit of the applicable Serviced Companion Loan Holder). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.01(d) shall not apply to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans. In addition, each Mortgage Loan Seller is required, pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, to provide to the Master Servicer the initial data with respect to its Mortgage Loans (and, if applicable, its Trust Subordinate Companion Loan(s)) for the CREFC^® Financial File and the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File that are required to be prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Agreement.

(e)               In connection with the Depositor’s assignment pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Depositor shall deliver, and hereby represents and warrants that it has delivered, to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, on or before the Closing Date, a fully executed original counterpart of each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, as in full force and effect, without amendment or modification, on the Closing Date.

(f)                With respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the Custodian shall also hold the related Mortgage File for the use and benefit of the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s).

(g)               The parties to this Agreement acknowledge and agree, with respect to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, that the Trust assumes the obligations and rights of the holder of each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan under the respective Co-Lender Agreement and/or Outside Servicing Agreement.

(h)               It is not intended that this Agreement create a partnership or a joint-stock association.

(i)                The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement provides that: (1) within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the related Mortgage Loan Seller is required to deliver or cause to be delivered the Diligence File for each of its Mortgage Loans to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence Files to the Designated Site; and (2) promptly upon completion of such delivery of the Diligence Files (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date), the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is required to provide

to the Depositor (with a copy (which may be sent by email if and to the extent provided for in Section 12.04 of this Agreement) to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) an officer’s certificate signed by such Mortgage Loan Seller certifying that the electronic copies of the documents uploaded to the Designated Site constitute all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor (the “Diligence File Certification”).The Depositor shall have no responsibility for determining whether any Diligence Files delivered to it are complete and shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders, the Loan-Specific Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners for the failure of any Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver a Diligence File (or a complete Diligence File) to the Depositor.

(j)                Within two (2) Business Day after the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deliver to the Master Servicer the Initial Schedule AL File and the Initial Schedule AL Additional File in XML Format and Excel format and Annex A to the Prospectus in Excel format at the following email address: NoticeAdmin@midlandls.com.

(k)              The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement provides that, contemporaneously with the execution of such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement by the Depositor and the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the related Mortgage Loan Seller is required to deliver to the Special Servicer a power of attorney (substantially in the form of Exhibit G to such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) that permits the Special Servicer to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any related Trust Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement actions by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund.

(l)                 Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the parties agree that the trust established under this Agreement will be treated as a bare trust for Canadian federal income tax purposes.

Section 2.02           Acceptance by the Trustee, the Custodian and the Certificate Administrator.

(a)               The Trustee, by its execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby accepts receipt, directly or through the Custodian on its behalf, of (i) the Trust Loans and all documents delivered to it that constitute portions of the related Mortgage Files and (ii) all other assets delivered to it and included in the Trust Fund, in good faith and without notice of any adverse claim, and declares that it or the Custodian on its behalf holds and will hold such documents and any other documents subsequently received by it that constitute portions of the Mortgage Files, and that the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee holds and will hold the Trust Loans and such other assets, together with any other assets subsequently delivered to it that are to be included in the Trust Fund, in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, the Serviced Companion Loan Holders pursuant to Section 2.01(f) of this Agreement. With respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the Custodian shall also hold the portion of such Mortgage File that relates

  - 172 -  

 

to any Serviced Companion Loan in such Whole Loan that is held outside the Trust in trust for the use and benefit of the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder. In connection with the foregoing, the Certificate Administrator, as the initial Custodian, hereby certifies to each of the other parties hereto, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, each Underwriter and each Initial Purchaser that, as to each Trust Loan, (i) all documents specified in clause (1) of the definition of “Mortgage File” are in its possession, and (ii) the original Note (or, if accompanied by a lost note affidavit, the copy of such Note) received by it with respect to such Trust Loan has been reviewed by it and (A) appears regular on its face (handwritten additions, changes or corrections shall not constitute irregularities if initialed by the Mortgagor), (B) appears to have been executed (where appropriate) and (C) purports to relate to such Trust Loan.

(b)               On or about the 60th day following the Closing Date (and, if any exceptions are noted, again on or about the 90th day following the Closing Date and monthly thereafter until the earliest of (i) the second anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) the day on which all exceptions have been removed and (iii) the day on which the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has repurchased or substituted for the last affected Trust Loan), the Custodian shall review the documents delivered to it with respect to each Trust Loan, and the Custodian shall, subject to Sections 2.01(c), 2.02(c) and 2.02(d) of this Agreement and the terms of the respective Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements, certify in writing (substantially in the form of Exhibit N to this Agreement) to each of the other parties hereto, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, each Underwriter and each Initial Purchaser (and upon request, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan that is held outside the Trust, to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder) that, as to each Trust Loan then subject to this Agreement (except as specifically identified in any exception report annexed to such certification, which exception report shall also be available in electronic format (including Excel-compatible format) upon request): (i) all documents specified in clauses (1), (2), (3), (4) (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), (5), (6) (provided that the Custodian has been notified of any related modification), (7), (15) and (20) (for each Trust Loan that is part of a Whole Loan) of the definition of “Mortgage File” are in its possession; (ii) the recordation/filing contemplated by Section 2.01(c) of this Agreement has been completed (based solely on receipt by the Custodian (whether that is the Certificate Administrator or any other Custodian appointed by it) of the particular recorded/filed documents); (iii) all documents received by the Custodian with respect to such Trust Loan have been reviewed by the Custodian and (A) appear regular on their face (handwritten additions, changes or corrections shall not constitute irregularities if initialed by the Mortgagor), (B) appear to have been executed (where appropriate) and (C) purport to relate to such Trust Loan; and (iv) based on the examinations referred to in Section 2.02(a) of this Agreement and this Section 2.02(b) and only as to the foregoing documents (together with any Loan Agreement that has been delivered by the related Mortgage Loan Seller), the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the items specified in clauses (iv) and (v)(B) of the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” accurately reflects the information set forth in the Mortgage File. With respect to the items listed in clauses (2), (3), (4) and (6) of the definition of “Mortgage File” if the original of such document is not in the Custodian’s possession because it has not been returned from the applicable recording office, then the Custodian’s certification prepared pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) should indicate the absence of such original. In addition, as it relates to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, with respect to the items listed in clauses (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (15) and (20) of the definition of “Mortgage File”, the Custodian’s certification prepared pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) should indicate the absence of such document: (i) in the case of the item listed in clause (1) of the definition of “Mortgage File”, unless

  - 173 -  

 

the Custodian is in possession of the original of such document; and (ii) in the case of the items listed in clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (15) and (20) of the definition of “Mortgage File”, unless the Custodian is in possession of a copy of such document. If the Custodian’s obligation to deliver the certifications contemplated in this subsection terminates because two years have elapsed since the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver (or cause any other Custodian appointed by it to deliver) a comparable certification to any party hereto, the Serviced Companion Loan Holder and any Underwriter and any Initial Purchaser on request.

(c)               It is acknowledged that none of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian is under any duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine any of the documents, instruments, certificates or other papers relating to the Trust Loans delivered to it to determine that the same are valid, legal, effective, genuine, binding, enforceable, sufficient or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face. Furthermore, none of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian shall have any responsibility for determining whether the text of any assignment or endorsement is in proper or recordable form, whether the requisite recording of any document is in accordance with the requirements of any applicable jurisdiction, or whether a blanket assignment is permitted in any applicable jurisdiction.

(d)               The parties hereto hereby agree that the scope of the Custodian’s review of the Mortgage Files is limited solely to confirming that the documents specified in clauses (1), (2), (3), (4) (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), (5), (6) (provided that the Custodian has been notified of any related modification), (7), (15) and (20) (for each Trust Loan that is part of a Whole Loan) of the definition of “Mortgage File” have been received, appear regular on their face and such additional information as will be necessary for delivering the certifications required by Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) of this Agreement, and such review is in no way intended to, nor shall it be used to, verify the content of any collateral descriptions included in any data tapes and shall not otherwise directly or indirectly be reflected in any offering document. Any review of the Mortgage Files by the Custodian and any certification with respect thereto is not intended to, and shall not be deemed by the parties to this Agreement to, constitute “due diligence services” or a “third party due diligence report” as such terms are defined in Rule 17g-10 and 15Ga-2, respectively, under the Exchange Act. Any recipient of the Custodian’s certification or a copy thereof by its receipt thereof is deemed to agree, and each party to this Agreement hereby agrees, that it shall not share such certification with any NRSRO or any party not addressed on such certification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 2.02(d) shall relieve any party to this Agreement from its obligation to deliver information to the Rating Agencies as required under and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e)               If, after the Closing Date, the Depositor comes into possession of any documents or records that constitute part of the Mortgage File or Servicing File for any Trust Loan, the Depositor shall promptly deliver such document to the Custodian with a copy to the Master Servicer (if it constitutes part of the Servicing File).

Section 2.03           Mortgage Loan Sellers’ Repurchase, Substitution or Cures of Trust Loans for Document Defects in Mortgage Files and Breaches of Representations and Warranties.

(a)               If (i) any party hereto (other than the Asset Representations Reviewer) (A) discovers or receives notice alleging that any document required to be included in a Mortgage File by (or on behalf of) the related Mortgage Loan Seller has not been properly executed, is missing, contains information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or does not appear to be regular on its face (each, a “Document Defect”) or (B) discovers or receives notice alleging a breach of any representation or warranty of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller made pursuant to Section 6(c) of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to any Trust Loan (a “Breach”) or (ii) the Special Servicer or the Depositor receives a Repurchase Request, then such Person shall give prompt written notice thereof to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), the other parties hereto, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder (if applicable) and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider (to the extent notice has not previously been delivered to such Persons pursuant to this sentence). If any such Document Defect or Breach materially and adversely affects, or any such Document Defect is deemed in accordance with Section 2.03(b) of this Agreement to materially and adversely affect, the value of the related Trust Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or the interests of the Trustee or any Trust Certificateholder or any Uncertificated Interest Owner in the related Trust Loan or the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or causes any Trust Loan to fail to be a Qualified Mortgage, then such Document Defect shall, subject to Section 2.03(b), constitute a “Material Document Defect” or such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach”, as the case may be. The Enforcing Servicer shall determine, with respect to any affected Trust Loan (including any successor REO Trust Loan with respect thereto), whether a Document Defect is a Material Document Defect or a Breach is a Material Breach. If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect, then the Enforcing Servicer shall give prompt written notice to the other parties hereto, the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (a) notifying such parties of the existence of such Material Defect and (b) demanding that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s (x) discovery of, and (y) receipt of notice of, and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to, such Material Defect (or, in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Trust Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days from any party discovering such Material Defect), cure the same in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of losses and any Additional Trust Fund Expenses associated therewith (including, if applicable, the amount of any fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer payable pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan)) or, if such Material Defect cannot be cured within such 90 day period, either (before the end of such 90-day period) (i) repurchase the affected Trust Loan or any related REO Property (or the Trust’s interest therein with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account or (ii) solely in the case of an affected Mortgage Loan, substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur on or after the second anniversary of the Closing Date and in no event shall any substitution be effected with respect to

  - 175 -  

 

a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) and pay the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith, all in conformity with the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement; provided, however, that a Mortgage Loan Seller may not repurchase a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan without repurchasing the related Mortgage Loan (so long as there is a Material Defect with respect to each such Serviced Loan); provided, further, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such 90 day period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Trust Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such 90 day period, then such Mortgage Loan Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase or substitution (it being understood and agreed that, in connection with such Mortgage Loan Seller’s receiving such additional 90 day period, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the initial 90 day period and what actions such Mortgage Loan Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that such Mortgage Loan Seller anticipates that such Material Defect will be cured within such additional 90 day period); and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the initial 90 day period and any such additional 90 day period solely due to the failure of such Mortgage Loan Seller to have received the recorded document, then such Mortgage Loan Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect so long as such Mortgage Loan Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator every 30 days thereafter that the Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that such Mortgage Loan Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date. If the affected Trust Loan is to be repurchased, the Master Servicer shall designate the Collection Account as the account to which funds in the amount of the Purchase Price are to be wired. If the affected Mortgage Loan is to be substituted for, the Master Servicer shall designate the Collection Account as the account to which funds in the amount of the Substitution Shortfall Amount are to be wired. Any such repurchase or substitution of a Trust Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Trust Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-Off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Trust Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and are to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the Mortgage Loan Seller effecting the related repurchase or substitution promptly following receipt. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. No mortgage loan may be substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Section 2.03(a) if the Mortgage Loan to be replaced was itself a Qualified

  - 176 -  

 

Substitute Mortgage Loan that had replaced a prior Mortgage Loan, in which case, absent a cure (including by the making of a Loss of Value Payment pursuant to the following paragraph) of the relevant Material Defect, the affected Mortgage Loan will be required to be repurchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(a), in lieu of the related Mortgage Loan Seller performing its obligations with respect to any Material Defect as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to the extent that such Mortgage Loan Seller and the Enforcing Servicer (in the case of a Mortgage Loan, subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative if and for so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder and, in the case of a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative if and for so long as it is the applicable Directing Holder), are able to agree upon a cash payment payable by such Mortgage Loan Seller to the Trust that would be deemed sufficient to compensate the Trust for such Material Defect (a “Loss of Value Payment”), such Mortgage Loan Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such Loss of Value Payment to the Trust, and the amount of such Loss of Value Payment shall be deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to be applied in accordance with Section 3.06(c) of this Agreement; provided that a Material Defect as a result of a Trust Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment. In connection with the Enforcing Servicer’s reaching an agreement with a Mortgage Loan Seller as to a Loss of Value Payment, the Master Servicer shall, upon the Enforcing Servicer’s request, promptly provide the Enforcing Servicer with a copy of the Servicing File for such Trust Loan and any other information relating to such Trust Loan and reasonably requested by the Enforcing Servicer. Any agreement by the Enforcing Servicer with a Mortgage Loan Seller as to any Loss of Value Payment with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan shall be subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative (if and for so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder) and, in the case of a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative (if and for so long as such Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder). The Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan, the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan. Upon its making a Loss of Value Payment, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have cured the subject Material Defect in all respects. Provided that such Loss of Value Payment is made, this paragraph describes the sole remedy available to the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners or the Trust regarding any such Material Defect in respect of which such Loss of Value Payment is accepted, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase or replace the affected Trust Loan or otherwise cure such Material Defect. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, provided that, prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Enforcing Servicer, as applicable, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and within the time frames set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Section 2.03 (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for such the affected Trust Loan).

In the case of a Material Defect with respect to any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, each related Applicable Co-sponsor shall be responsible for any remedies under this Agreement

  - 177 -  

 

and such Applicable Co-sponsor’s Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement solely in respect of the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) sold by such Applicable Co-sponsor under its Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement as if such promissory note(s) were a separate Mortgage Loan.

If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as described above (a “Defective Mortgage Loan”), (y) such Defective Mortgage Loan is part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and (z) the applicable Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Material Defect as to the other Mortgage Loan(s) that are a part of such Cross-Collateralized Group (the “Other Crossed Loans”) (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Document Defect or Breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to each such Other Crossed Loan for purposes of the above provisions, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such Other Crossed Loan in accordance with the provisions above unless, in the case of such Breach or Document Defect, as applicable:

(A)             the related Mortgage Loan Seller (at its expense) delivers or causes to be delivered to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Mortgage Loan Seller’s repurchase or replacement of only the Mortgage Loan(s) as to which a Material Defect has actually occurred without regard to the provisions of this paragraph (the “Affected Loan(s)”) and the operation of the remaining provisions of this Section 2.03(a) (i) will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Trust Certificate is outstanding and (ii) will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code); and

(B)              each of the following conditions would be satisfied if the related Mortgage Loan Seller were to repurchase or replace only the Affected Loans and not the Other Crossed Loans:

(1)               the debt service coverage ratio for such Other Crossed Loan(s) (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not less than the lesser of (A) 0.10x below the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus and (B) the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) for the four preceding calendar quarters preceding the repurchase or replacement;

(2)               the loan-to-value ratio for the Other Crossed Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the greatest of (A) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus plus 10%, (B) the

  - 178 -  

 

loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) at the time of repurchase or replacement and (C) 75%; and

(3)               either (x) the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group will not impair the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group or (y) the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans have been modified in a manner that complies with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement and that removes any threat of impairment of the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group as a result of the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group.

The determination of the Enforcing Servicer as to whether the conditions set forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error on the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners, the other parties to this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Seller. The Enforcing Servicer will be entitled to cause to be delivered, or direct the related Mortgage Loan Seller to cause to be delivered, to the Enforcing Servicer an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause (B)(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the related Mortgage Loan Seller if the scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the related Mortgage Loan Seller and, so long as a Consultation Termination Event has not occurred and is not continuing, by the Controlling Class Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in each case).

With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan that forms a part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and as to which the conditions described in the second preceding paragraph are satisfied, such that the Trust Fund will continue to hold the Other Crossed Loans, the related Mortgage Loan Seller and the Trustee, as successor to the Depositor, are bound by an agreement (set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) to forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each is permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan(s) still held by the Trust Fund. If the exercise of remedies by one such party would impair the ability of the other such party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan or the Other Crossed Loans, as the case may be, held by the other such party, then both parties have agreed to forbear from exercising such remedies unless and until the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans can be modified in a manner that complies with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to remove the threat of impairment as a result of the exercise of remedies. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing any of the Mortgage Loans that form a Cross-Collateralized Group shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Loan Documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. All other terms of the related Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect, without any modification thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall

be binding on all future holders of each Mortgage Loan that forms part of a Cross-Collateralized Group.

Pursuant to each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, if there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties securing a Trust Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase the affected Trust Loan (or, in the case of any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, with respect to each related Applicable Co-sponsor, the applicable portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan sold by such Applicable Co-sponsor under its Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property(ies) is, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the related Loan Documents and the related Mortgage Loan Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such release would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

To the extent necessary and appropriate, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall execute (pursuant to a limited power of attorney provided by the Trustee that enables the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, to execute) the modification of the Loan Documents that complies with the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to remove the threat of impairment of the ability of the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Trust Fund to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loan(s) held by such party resulting from the exercise of remedies by the other such party; provided that the Trustee shall not be liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any of its agents or subcontractors. The Master Servicer shall advance all costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer with respect to any Cross-Collateralized Group pursuant to this paragraph and the first, second and third preceding paragraphs, and such advances and interest thereon shall (i) constitute and be reimbursable as Property Advances and (ii) be included in the calculation of Purchase Price for the Affected Loan(s) to be repurchased or replaced. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be liable to any Trust Certificateholder, any Uncertificated Interest Owner or any other party hereto if a modification of the Loan Documents described above cannot be effected for any reason beyond the control of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or should not be effected as determined by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor receives a Repurchase Communication of a withdrawal of a Repurchase Request of which notice has been previously received or given and which withdrawal is by the Person making such Repurchase Request (a “Repurchase Request Withdrawal”), such party shall give written notice of such Repurchase Request Withdrawal to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, the other parties hereto, the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), any Serviced Companion Loan Holder (if applicable) and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider (to the extent notice has not previously been delivered to such Persons pursuant to this sentence). If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer receives a

  - 180 -  

 

Repurchase Communication that any Trust Loan that was subject of a Repurchase Request has been repurchased or replaced (a “Repurchase”), or that such Repurchase Request has been rejected (a “Repurchase Request Rejection”), then the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall (in accordance with the following paragraph) give written notice of such Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection to the other such party, the Depositor, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (unless it is the entity that has repurchased or replaced the subject Trust Loan or rejected such Repurchase Request), and the Certificate Administrator (in each case unless the proposed recipient is the party that notified the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, thereof).

Each notice of a Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection required to be given by a party pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) (each, a “Rule 15Ga-1 Notice”) shall be given no later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection, as applicable, and shall include (i) the identity of the related Trust Loan and the Person making the Repurchase Request, (ii) the date that the Repurchase Communication regarding the Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection was received, as applicable, (iii) if known, the basis for the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) and (iv) in the case of Rule 15Ga-1 Notices provided by the Special Servicer with respect to a Repurchase Request, a statement as to whether the Special Servicer currently plans to pursue such Repurchase Request.

If the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request, a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, a Repurchase or a Repurchase Request Rejection, then such party shall promptly forward such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection to the Special Servicer and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative, and include the following statement in the related correspondence: “This is a Repurchase Communication regarding [a “Repurchase Request”] [a “Repurchase Request Withdrawal”] [a “Repurchase”] [a “Repurchase Request Rejection”] under Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to the BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4, requiring action by you as the recipient of such [Repurchase Request] [Repurchase Request Withdrawal] [Repurchase] [Repurchase Request Rejection] thereunder”. Upon receipt of any Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection by the Special Servicer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Special Servicer shall be deemed to be the recipient of such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection, and the Special Servicer shall comply with the notice procedures set forth in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.03(a) with respect to such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection.

No Person that is required to provide a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) (a “Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider”) shall be required to provide any information in

  - 181 -  

 

a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. Each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement will provide that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) is so provided only to assist the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.

On or before the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deliver to the Master Servicer a copy of each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, which the Master Servicer shall provide to each Sub-Servicer.

(b)               Subject to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s right to cure as contemplated in this Section 2.03, and further subject to Section 2.01(b) and Section 2.01(c) of this Agreement, failure of such Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8) and (18) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in accordance with this Agreement and the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement for any Trust Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except a deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Trust Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the related Trust Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the related Trust Loan or any immediate significant servicing obligation.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if a Trust Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Trust Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

(c)               In connection with any repurchase of, or substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for, a Mortgage Loan or, if applicable, a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan pursuant to this Section 2.03, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the applicable repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the applicable repurchasing entity evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File and other documents (including, without limitation, the Servicing File), and all Escrow Payments and reserve funds, pertaining to such Trust Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and

  - 182 -  

 

reconveyance of such Trust Loan and the security thereof to the Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and/or and the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. The Master Servicer shall, and is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee to, prepare, execute and deliver in its own name, on behalf of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and the Trustee or any of them, the endorsements and assignments contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), and such other instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to transfer title to an REO Property (including with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) in connection with the repurchase of, or substitution for, an REO Trust Loan and the Trustee shall execute and deliver any powers of attorney necessary to permit the Master Servicer to do so; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be held liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or any of its agents or subcontractors. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement provides that in the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan by the related Mortgage Loan Seller as contemplated by this Section 2.03, the related Mortgage Loan Seller will be required to deliver to the Custodian the related Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in this Agreement.

The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement provides that if any Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as contemplated by this Section 2.03, the related Mortgage Loan Seller will be required to amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule (as such term is defined in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) to reflect the removal of any deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) and deliver or cause the delivery of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule (as such term is defined in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) to the parties to this Agreement. Upon any substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall become part of the Trust Fund and be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

(d)               The related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement provides the sole remedies available to the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners, or the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners, respecting any Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Trust Loan.

(e)               The parties to this Agreement acknowledge, with respect to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, that the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement provides that if a “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) exists under the related Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Pari Passu Companion Loan that is included in the Outside Securitization Trust established under the related Outside Servicing Agreement, and such Pari Passu Companion Loan is repurchased by or on behalf of the related Mortgage Loan Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) from such Outside Securitization Trust as a result of such “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in such Outside Servicing Agreement), then the related

  - 183 -  

 

Mortgage Loan Seller will be required to repurchase such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) related solely to the promissory note for the subject Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(f)                (i)            In the event a Certificateholder (in the case of a Mortgage Loan) or a Loan-Specific Certificateholder (in the case of a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) delivers a written request to a party to this Agreement that a Trust Loan be repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller alleging the existence of a Material Defect with respect to such Trust Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “Certificateholder Repurchase Request”), such party shall promptly forward that Certificateholder Repurchase Request to the Enforcing Servicer, and the Enforcing Servicer shall promptly forward that Certificateholder Repurchase Request to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and each other party to this Agreement.

(ii)                In the event that any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor (solely in its capacity as operating advisor) determines that a Trust Loan should be repurchased or replaced due to a Material Defect, or has knowledge of a Material Defect with respect to a Trust Loan, then such party shall deliver prompt written notice of such Material Defect to the Enforcing Servicer identifying the applicable Trust Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “PSA Party Repurchase Request”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the first sentence of this clause (ii) or any other provision of this Agreement, the Trustee may, but is not obligated to, make a determination that a Trust Loan should be repurchased or, except in the case of a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, be replaced due to a Material Defect. The Enforcing Servicer shall promptly forward such PSA Party Repurchase Request to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and each other party to this Agreement. Subject to subsections (g), (h), (i), (j) and (k) of this Section 2.03, the Enforcing Servicer shall act as the Enforcing Party and enforce the rights of the Trust against the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to each Repurchase Request. The Enforcing Servicer shall enforce the obligations of the Mortgage Loan Sellers under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements (including, without limitation, obligations resulting from a Material Defect) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, if any, shall be carried out in such form, to such extent and at such time as the Enforcing Servicer would require were it, in its individual capacity, the owner of the affected Trust Loan, and in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Any costs incurred by the Enforcing Servicer with respect to the enforcement of the obligations of a Mortgage Loan Seller under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall be deemed to be Property Advances, to the extent not recovered from the Mortgage Loan Seller or the applicable Requesting Certificateholder and/or Consultation Requesting Certificateholder.

(iii)              In the event a Repurchase Request is not Resolved within 180 days after the Mortgage Loan Seller receives the Repurchase Request (a “Resolution Failure”), then the provisions described in Section 2.03(g) below shall apply. Receipt of the Repurchase Request shall be deemed to occur two (2) Business Days after the Repurchase

  - 184 -  

 

Request is sent to the related Mortgage Loan Seller in a commercially reasonable manner. The fact that a Repurchase Request has been Resolved pursuant to clause (vi) of the definition of “Resolved” shall not preclude the Enforcing Servicer from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and timing otherwise set forth in this Agreement, in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or as provided by law. The provisions of subsections (g), (h) and (i) of this Section 2.03 apply solely to Repurchase Requests with respect to a Mortgage Loan (but not with respect to a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), and any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner rights under such subsections may only be exercised by a Certificateholder or a Certificate Owner of a Certificate.

(g)               (i)            After a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a Repurchase Request regarding a Mortgage Loan (whether the Repurchase Request was initiated by an Initial Requesting Certificateholder or by a party to this Agreement), the Enforcing Servicer shall send a notice (a “Proposed Course of Action Notice”) to the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, to the address specified in the Initial Requesting Certificateholder’s Repurchase Request, and to the Certificate Administrator who shall make such notice available to all other Certificateholders, Certificate Owners of Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website indicating the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request. If (a) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request does not involve pursuing further action to exercise rights against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request, or (b) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action is to pursue further action to exercise rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request but a Requesting Certificateholder does not agree with the course of action selected by the Enforcing Servicer and, in the case of clause (a) or (b), a Requesting Certificateholder wishes to exercise its right to refer the matter to mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration, if any, then a Requesting Certificateholder may deliver to the Enforcing Servicer a written notice (a “Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice”) within 30 days from the date the Proposed Course of Action Notice was posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (the 30th day following the date of posting, the “Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date”) indicating its intent to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration. In addition, any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner of a Certificate may deliver, prior to the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date, a written notice (a “Consultation Election Notice”) requesting the right to participate in any Dispute Resolution Consultation (as defined in clause (iii) below) that is conducted by the Enforcing Servicer following the Enforcing Servicer’s receipt of a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice as provided in clause (iii) below.

(ii)                 If no Requesting Certificateholder delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice prior to the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date, then no Certificateholder, Certificate Owner of a Certificate or Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner shall have the right to refer the Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration, and the Enforcing Servicer shall be the sole party obligated and entitled to determine a course of action, including, but not limited to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller, subject to any consent or consultation rights of the Controlling Class Representative if and for as long as it is the applicable Directing Holder or applicable Consulting Party.

  - 185 -  

 

(iii)               Promptly and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice from a Requesting Certificateholder, the Enforcing Servicer shall consult with each Requesting Certificateholder regarding such Requesting Certificateholder’s intention to elect either mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration as the dispute resolution method with respect to the Repurchase Request, and with any Consultation Requesting Certificateholder (the “Dispute Resolution Consultation”) so that each such Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder may consider the views of the Enforcing Servicer as to the claims underlying the Repurchase Request and possible dispute resolution methods, such discussions to occur and be completed no later than ten (10) Business Days following the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date. The Enforcing Servicer shall be entitled to establish procedures the Enforcing Servicer deems to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard relating to the timing and extent of such consultations. No later than five (5) Business Days after completion of the Dispute Resolution Consultation, a Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder may provide a final notice to the Enforcing Servicer indicating its decision to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation or arbitration (“Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice”).

(iv)                If, following the Dispute Resolution Consultation, no Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then no Certificateholder, Certificate Owner of a Certificate or Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner shall have any further right to refer the Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration, and the Enforcing Servicer shall be the sole party obligated and entitled to determine a course of action including, but not limited to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller, subject to any consent or consultation rights of the applicable Directing Holder.

(v)                  If a Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then such Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder shall become the Enforcing Party and must promptly submit the matter to mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration. If more than one Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice, then such Dispute Resolution Requesting Holders shall collectively become the Enforcing Party, and the holder or holders of a majority of the Voting Rights among such Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder shall be entitled to make all decisions relating to such mediation or arbitration (including whether to refer the matter to mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration). If, however, no Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder commences arbitration or mediation pursuant to the terms of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of its Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then (i) the rights of any Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder to act as the Enforcing Party shall terminate and no Certificateholder, Certificate Owner of a Certificate or Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration, (ii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice indicated that the Enforcing Servicer will take no further action with respect to the Repurchase Request, then the related Material Defect shall be deemed waived for all purposes under this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, provided, however, that such Material Defect will not be deemed waived with respect to

  - 186 -  

 

the Enforcing Servicer to the extent there is a material change from the facts and circumstances known to it at the time when the Proposed Course of Action Notice was delivered by the Enforcing Servicer, and (iii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice had indicated a course of action other than the course of action under clause (ii), then the Enforcing Servicer shall be the sole party obligated and entitled to determine a course of action including, but not limited to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

(vi)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the dispute resolution provisions described above under this Section 2.03(g) shall not apply, and the Enforcing Servicer shall be the sole party entitled to enforce the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller, if the Enforcing Servicer has commenced litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request, or determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that it is in the best interest of Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner to commence litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request to avoid the running of any applicable statute of limitations.

(vii)             In the event a Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder becomes the Enforcing Party, the Enforcing Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, shall remain a party to any proceedings against the related Mortgage Loan Seller as further described herein.

(viii)           For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Depositor, any Mortgage Loan Seller or any of their respective affiliates shall be entitled to be a Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder or otherwise vote Certificates owned by it or such Affiliate(s) with respect to a course of action proposed or undertaken pursuant to the procedures described in this Section 2.03.

(ix)               The Dispute Resolution Requesting Holders are entitled to elect either mediation or arbitration with respect to a Repurchase Request in their sole discretion; provided, however, no Dispute Resolution Requesting Holder shall be entitled to then utilize the alternative method in the event that the initial method is unsuccessful, and no other Certificateholder, Certificate Owner of a Certificate or Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner shall be entitled to elect either arbitration or mediation in the event a mediation or arbitration is undertaken with respect to such Repurchase Request.

(h)               If the Enforcing Party selects mediation (including non-binding arbitration), the following provisions shall apply:

(i)                   The mediation shall be administered by a nationally recognized mediation organization selected by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller within 30 days of receipt of written notice of the Enforcing Party’s selection of mediation (such provider, the “Mediation Services Provider”) in accordance with published mediation procedures (the “Mediation Rules”) promulgated by the Mediation Services Provider.

(ii)                 The mediator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in commercial litigation, and if possible, commercial real estate finance or commercial mortgage-backed

  - 187 -

Upon being supplied a list of at least ten potential qualified mediators by the Mediation Services Provider each party will have the right to exercise two peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential mediators in order of preference. The Mediation Services Provider shall select the mediator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii)              Prior to accepting an appointment, the mediator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the hearings within the prescribed time schedule.

(iv)               The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct an organizational conference to begin the mediation within 10 Business Days of the selection of the mediator and to conclude the mediation within 60 days thereafter.

(v)                 The expenses of any mediation shall be allocated among the parties to the mediation including, if applicable, between the Enforcing Party and the Enforcing Servicer, as mutually agreed by the parties as part of the mediation (any such expenses allocated to the Enforcing Servicer shall be reimbursed as provided in clause (vi) below).

(vi)               Out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Enforcing Servicer for mediation or arbitration, to the extent not agreed to be paid by the Enforcing Party or another party (in the case of mediation) or allocated to the Enforcing Party or another party (in the case of arbitration), shall be reimbursable as expenses of the Trust Fund payable out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement.

(i)                 If the Enforcing Party selects third-party arbitration, the following provisions will apply:

(i)                   The arbitration shall be administered by a nationally recognized arbitration organization selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller within 30 days of receipt of written notice of the Enforcing Party’s selection of third-party arbitration (such provider, the “Arbitration Services Provider”) in accordance with published arbitration procedures (the “Arbitration Rules”) promulgated by the Arbitration Services Provider.

(ii)                The arbitrator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least 15 years of experience in commercial litigation, and if possible, commercial real estate finance or commercial mortgage-backed securitization matters and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Arbitration Services Provider. Upon being supplied a list of at least ten potential arbitrators by the Arbitration Services Provider each party will have the right to exercise two peremptory challenges within 14 days and to rank the remaining potential arbitrators in order of preference. The Arbitration Services Provider will select the arbitrator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii)              Prior to accepting an appointment, the arbitrator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the hearings within the prescribed time schedule.

(iv)               After consulting with the parties at an organizational conference held not later than 10 Business Days after its appointment, the arbitrator shall devise procedures and deadlines for the arbitration, to the extent not already agreed to by the parties, with the goal of expediting the proceeding and completing the arbitration within 120 days. The arbitrator shall have the authority to schedule, hear, and determine any and all motions, including dispositive and discovery motions, in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for non-jury matters (the “Rules”) (including summary judgment and other prehearing and post hearing motions), and will do so by reasoned decision on the motion of any party to the arbitration.

(v)                 Notwithstanding whatever other discovery may be available under the Rules, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, each party to the arbitration will be presumptively limited to the following discovery in the arbitration: (A) the parties shall reasonably and in good faith voluntarily produce to all other parties all documents upon which they intend to rely and all documents they reasonably and in good faith believe to be relevant to the claims or defenses asserted by any of the parties, (B) party witness depositions (excluding Rule 30b-6 witnesses), and (C) expert witness depositions, provided that the arbitrator shall have the ability to grant the parties, or either of them, additional discovery to the extent that the arbitrator determines good cause is shown that such additional discovery is reasonable and necessary.

(vi)               The arbitrator shall make its final determination no later than 30 days after the conclusion of the hearings and submission of any post-hearing submissions. The arbitrator shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, and may not modify or change those agreements in any way or award remedies not consistent with those agreements. The arbitrator will not have the power to award punitive damages or consequential damages in any arbitration conducted by them. Interest on any monetary award shall bear interest from the date of the Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice at the Prime Rate. In its final determination, the arbitrator shall determine and award the costs of the arbitration (including the fees of the arbitrator, cost of any record or transcript of the arbitration, and administrative fees) and shall award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the parties to the arbitration as determined by the arbitrator in its reasonable discretion. The determination of the arbitrator shall be by a reasoned decision in writing and counterpart copies will be promptly delivered to the parties. The final determination of the arbitrator shall be final and non-appealable, except for actions to confirm or vacate the determination permitted under federal or state law, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(vii)            By selecting arbitration, the Enforcing Party is waiving its right to sue in court, including the right to a trial by jury.

As part of its servicing activities hereunder, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer for the benefit of the Trustee, the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, the Serviced Companion Loan Holders, shall (at no expense to the Trustee, the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners, the Serviced Companion Loan Holders or the Trust) monitor the performance and enforce the obligations of each of its Sub-Servicers under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement (except that, to the extent provided in Article X hereof, the Master Servicer shall be required only to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer to comply with the requirements of Article X hereof). Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements in accordance with their respective terms and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as is in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the terms

  - 210 -  

 

of this Agreement. Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have the right to remove a Sub-Servicer retained by it in accordance with the terms of the related Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(d)               If the Trustee or any successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer, as applicable, assumes the obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with Section 7.02, the Trustee or such successor, as applicable, to the extent necessary to permit the Trustee or such successor, as applicable, to carry out the provisions of Section 7.02, shall, without act or deed on the part of the Trustee or such successor, as applicable, succeed to all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under any Sub Servicing Agreement entered into by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.01(c) of this Agreement. In such event, the Trustee or the successor Master Servicer or the successor Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, interest therein (but not any liabilities or obligations in respect of acts or omissions of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, prior to such deemed assumption) and to have replaced the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as a party to such Sub-Servicing Agreement to the same extent as if such Sub Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the Trustee or such successor Master Servicer, as applicable, except that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under such Sub Servicing Agreement that accrued prior to the succession of the Trustee or the successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer, as applicable.

In the event that the Trustee or any successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer, assumes the servicing obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon request of the Trustee or such successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer, as applicable, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall at its own expense deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee or such successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer, as applicable, all documents and records relating to any Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Trust Loans then being serviced thereunder and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it, if any, and will otherwise use its reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of any Sub-Servicing Agreement to the Trustee or the successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer, as applicable.

(e)               The parties hereto acknowledge that each Serviced Whole Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the related Co-Lender Agreement and recognize the respective rights and obligations of the Trust, as holder of the related Mortgage Loan and any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, and of the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) under the related Co-Lender Agreement, including: (i) with respect to the allocation of collections on or in respect of such Serviced Whole Loan, and the making of remittances, to the Trust, as holder of the related Mortgage Loan and any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, and to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s); (ii) with respect to the allocation of expenses and losses relating to such Serviced Whole Loan to the Trust, as holder of the related Mortgage Loan and any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, and to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s); (iii) any consultation, consent and Special Servicer appointment rights of a related Serviced Companion Loan Holder or its Companion Loan Holder Representative, including those specified in this Agreement; (iv) any right of a related Companion Loan Holder to attend

  - 211 -  

 

(in-person or telephonically) annual meetings with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for the purpose of discussing servicing issues related to such Serviced Whole Loan; (v) any right of a related Companion Loan Holder to cure certain defaults under the related Serviced Whole Loan; and (vi) any right of a related Companion Loan Holder to purchase the related Split Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund (together with any other related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans, if applicable). With respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Master Servicer (if such Serviced Whole Loan is a Performing Serviced Loan) or the Special Servicer (if such Serviced Whole Loan has become a Specially Serviced Loan or the related Mortgaged Property has been converted to an REO Property) shall prepare and provide to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (or its Companion Loan Holder Representative), or, if applicable, the master servicer or special servicer for the related Other Securitization Trust, on its behalf, all notices, reports, statements and communications to be delivered by the holder of the related Mortgage Loan under the related Co-Lender Agreement, and shall perform all duties and obligations to be performed by a servicer and perform all servicing-related duties and obligations to be performed by the holder of the related Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement. Furthermore, to the extent not otherwise expressly included herein, any provisions required to be included herein pursuant to any Co-Lender Agreement for a Serviced Whole Loan are deemed incorporated herein by reference, and the parties hereto shall comply with those provisions as if set forth herein in full. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and a Co-Lender Agreement with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, the terms of such Co-Lender Agreement shall control with respect to such Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the related Co-Lender Agreement is not intended to prevent the Master Servicer from receiving Servicing Fees, as and to the extent provided under this Agreement, earned on the related Mortgage Loan (to the extent not otherwise paid in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement) out of collections allocated to and received on such Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement.

With respect to any Serviced Outside Controlled Mortgage Loan (including any Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan prior to the related Servicing Shift Date), subject to the rights of the Controlling Class Representative under this Agreement and any applicable consultation rights of the Operating Advisor (to the extent set forth in Sections 3.29(f) and (g)), the Master Servicer (if such Serviced Outside Controlled Mortgage Loan is a Performing Serviced Loan and the matter does not involve a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision) or the Special Servicer (if such Serviced Outside Controlled Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan or if such Serviced Outside Controlled Mortgage Loan is a Performing Serviced Loan and the matter involves a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision) shall be entitled to exercise the rights and powers granted under the related Co-Lender Agreement to the “Non-Controlling Note Holder” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Co-Lender Agreement).

(f)                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (a) at no time shall the Master Servicer or the Trustee be required to make any P&I Advance on any Companion Loan other than a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan and (b) if the Mortgage Loan and any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan (or the related REO Property) that is part of a Serviced Whole Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund, neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have any obligation to make any Property Advance on such Serviced Whole Loan. If pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the Master Servicer does not intend to make a Property

  - 212 -  

 

Advance with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan that the Master Servicer would have made if the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property were still part of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the holder of the related Serviced Companion Loan of its intention to no longer make such Property Advances and shall additionally promptly notify such holder of any required Property Advance it would have otherwise made upon becoming aware of the need for such Property Advance. Additionally, at the time the Mortgage Loan relating to a Serviced Whole Loan is removed from the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder (or the master servicer of any securitization of the related Serviced Companion Loan) (i) a copy of the most recent inspection report and the inspection report for the prior calendar year, (ii) copies of all financial statements collected from the related Mortgagor for the most recent calendar year and the prior calendar year, (iii) a copy of the most recent Appraisal and any other Appraisal done in the prior year and (iv) a copy of all tax and insurance bills for the current calendar year and the prior calendar year.

(g)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s authority with respect to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan and each Outside Serviced Companion Loan related to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans are limited by and subject to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement and this Agreement and the rights of the related Outside Servicer and the related Outside Special Servicer with respect thereto under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement. The parties further recognize the respective rights and obligations of the related Outside Trustee and/or the Outside Serviced Companion Loan Holders (or the representatives thereof) under each respective Co-Lender Agreement including with respect to the allocation of collections on or in respect of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Certificate Administrator, on behalf of the Trust, in connection with the enforcement of the rights by the Trustee (as holder of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) under each related Co-Lender Agreement and each applicable Outside Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, (under the power of attorney granted by the Trustee) shall take such actions as it shall deem reasonably necessary to facilitate the servicing of each Outside Serviced Companion Loan by the related Outside Servicer and the related Outside Special Servicer, including, but not limited to, delivering appropriate requests for release to the Custodian (if any) in order to deliver any portion of the related Mortgage Files to the related Outside Servicer or related Outside Special Servicer under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement.

To the extent that the Trust, as holder of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners, is entitled to (i) consent to or approve any modification, waiver or amendment of such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan or (ii) exercise any consultation rights with respect to “Major Decisions” or “Material Actions” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement) in connection with such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property or any consultation rights with respect to the implementation of “Asset Status Reports” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement), then the following party or parties (to the extent notified by the appropriate party to the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement of any matter requiring the exercise of consent, approval or consultation rights) shall actually exercise such consent, approval or consultation

  - 213 -  

 

rights, and the respective parties to this Agreement shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary to allow the following party or parties to exercise such consent, approval or consultation rights: (a) the Controlling Class Representative (unless a Control Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consent under the related Co-Lender Agreement) or the Special Servicer (if a Control Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consent under the related Co-Lender Agreement) shall exercise any such consent or approval rights, in each case in accordance with Section 3.01(i); and (b) the Controlling Class Representative (unless a Consultation Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consult under the related Co-Lender Agreement) or the Special Servicer (if a Consultation Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consult under the related Co-Lender Agreement) shall exercise any such consultation rights entitled to be exercised by the holder of such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan in accordance with Section 3.01(i); provided, that after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, any such consultation rights shall be exercised by the Special Servicer or the Controlling Class Representative, as applicable, jointly with the Operating Advisor (but in the case of the Operating Advisor, only with respect to matters similar to Major Decisions). The Master Servicer shall only be obligated to forward any requests received from the Outside Servicer or the Outside Special Servicer, as applicable, for such consent and/or consultation to the Special Servicer (who shall forward any such request to the Controlling Class Representative except if a Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event, as applicable, has occurred and is continuing or if the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consent or consult, as applicable, under the related Co-Lender Agreement and, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, to the Operating Advisor), and the Master Servicer shall have no right or obligation to exercise any such consent or consultation rights.

In addition to such consent, approval or consultation rights, the Controlling Class Representative (if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and the Controlling Class Representative is permitted to exercise the subject right under the related Co-Lender Agreement) and the Special Servicer (if a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to exercise the subject right under the related Co-Lender Agreement), on behalf of the Trust, as holder of each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, will have the right (exercisable in its sole discretion), to the extent provided in the related Co-Lender Agreement and/or the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement, to attend (in-person or telephonically) annual meetings with the related Outside Servicer or Outside Special Servicer, as applicable, upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the related Outside Servicer or Outside Special Servicer, as applicable, for the purpose of discussing servicing issues related to such Outside Serviced Whole Loan.

None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian or the Trustee shall have any obligation or authority to supervise any Outside Servicer, any Outside Special Servicer, any Outside Trustee or any other party to the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement or to make Property Advances with respect to any of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans or a Companion Loan related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan. The obligation of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to provide information to the Trustee or any other Person with respect to the Outside Serviced

  - 214 -  

 

Mortgage Loans and any Outside Serviced Companion Loan related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is dependent on their receipt of the corresponding information from the related Outside Servicer or the related Outside Special Servicer, as applicable.

(h)               The parties hereto acknowledge that each Outside Serviced Whole Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the respective Co-Lender Agreement and further acknowledge that, pursuant to the respective Co-Lender Agreement, (i) the related Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan and the related Outside Serviced Companion Loans are to be serviced and administered by the related Outside Servicer and Outside Special Servicer in accordance with the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement, and (ii) in the event that the applicable Outside Serviced Companion Loan is no longer part of the trust fund created by the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan remains an asset of the Trust Fund, then, as set forth in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the related Outside Serviced Whole Loan shall be serviced in accordance with the applicable provisions of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement as if such agreement was still in full force and effect with respect to the related Outside Serviced Whole Loan, until such time as a new servicing agreement has been agreed to by the parties to the related Co-Lender Agreement in accordance with the provisions of such agreement and confirmation has been obtained from the Rating Agencies that such new servicing agreement would not result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then current ratings of any Class of Certificates then outstanding and any other requirements applicable to the related Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(i)                 The parties hereto acknowledge that each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the related Co-Lender Agreement. With respect to each Outside Serviced Whole Loan, the parties hereto recognize the respective rights and obligations of the related Outside Serviced Whole Loan Noteholders under the related Co-Lender Agreement, including with respect to the allocation of collections and losses on or in respect of the related Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan and the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan(s) and the making of payments to the related Outside Serviced Whole Loan Noteholders in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement and the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement. The parties hereto further acknowledge that, pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement, each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan and the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan(s) are to be serviced and administered by the related Outside Servicer and Outside Special Servicer in accordance with the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement, and that payments allocated to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan and the related Outside Serviced Companion Loans pursuant to the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement are to be made by related Outside Servicer. Although each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is not serviced and administered hereunder, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer hereunder for each such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan shall have certain duties as set forth herein and shall constitute the “Master Servicer” and “Special Servicer” hereunder with respect to each such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

If there are at any time amounts due from the Trust, as holder of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to any party under the related Co-Lender Agreement or the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall pay such amounts out of the Collection Account. If a party to the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan requests the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee, Certificate Administrator or

  - 215 -  

 

Custodian to consent to, or consult with respect to, a modification, waiver or amendment of, or other loan-level action related to, such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan (except a modification, waiver or amendment of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement or the related Co-Lender Agreement which shall not be subject to the operation of this sentence but shall instead be subject to the operation of the provisions below in this paragraph), the party hereto that receives such request shall (but in the case of the Master Servicer subject to the limitation that it shall only be required to deliver any such request to the Special Servicer) promptly deliver a copy of such request to the Controlling Class Representative (if no Control Termination Event (in the case of consent rights) or Consultation Termination Event (in the case of consultation rights) exists and the Controlling Class Representative may consent or consult, as applicable, under the related Co-Lender Agreement) or to the Special Servicer (if a Control Termination Event (in the case of consent rights) or Consultation Termination Event (in the case of consultation rights) exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consent or consult, as applicable, under the related Co-Lender Agreement), as applicable, and, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger, to the Operating Advisor, and (a) any such consent rights shall be exercised by the Controlling Class Representative (unless a Control Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consent under the related Co-Lender Agreement) or by the Special Servicer (if a Control Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consent under the related Co-Lender Agreement) and (b) any such consultation rights shall be exercised by the Controlling Class Representative (unless a Consultation Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consult under the related Co-Lender Agreement) or by the Special Servicer (if a Consultation Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consult under the related Co-Lender Agreement); provided, that after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, any such consultation rights shall be exercised by the Special Servicer or the Controlling Class Representative, as applicable, jointly with the Operating Advisor (but, in the case of the Operating Advisor, only with respect to matters similar to Major Decisions); and provided, further, that, if such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan were serviced hereunder and such action would not be permitted without Rating Agency Confirmation, then the Controlling Class Representative or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not exercise any such right of consent without first having obtained (or having caused the related Outside Servicer or Outside Special Servicer to obtain) or received such Rating Agency Confirmation (payable at the expense of the party making such request for consent or approval if such requesting party is a Certificateholder, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner or a party to this Agreement, and otherwise payable from the Collection Account). If a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, Certificate Administrator or Custodian receives actual notice of a termination event under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement, then the Trustee, Certificate Administrator or Custodian, as applicable, shall notify the Master Servicer (in writing), and the Master Servicer shall act in accordance with the instructions of (prior to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event) the Controlling Class Representative in accordance with the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to such termination event (provided that the Master Servicer shall only be required to comply with such instructions if such instructions are in accordance with the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and not inconsistent with this Agreement); provided that, if such instructions are not provided within a reasonable time period (not to exceed ten (10) Business Days or such lesser response time as is afforded under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement) or if a Control Termination Event exists or if the Master

The reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, or the Trustee in connection with such enforcement shall be paid by the Master Servicer out of the Collection Account. If the Trustee receives a request (and, if the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator receives such request, such party shall promptly forward such request to the Trustee) from any party to the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement for consent to or approval of a modification, waiver or amendment of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and/or the related Co-Lender Agreement, or the adoption of any servicing agreement that is the successor to and/or in replacement of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement in effect as of the Closing Date or a change in servicer under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement, then the Trustee is hereby directed to, and the Trustee shall, grant such consent or approval if (a) the Trustee shall have received a prior Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (payable at the expense of the party making such request for consent or approval to the Trustee, if such requesting party is a Certificateholder, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner or a party to this Agreement, and otherwise payable from the Collection Account) with respect to such consent or approval, and (b) unless a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to exercise the applicable consent rights, the Trustee shall have obtained the consent of the Controlling Class Representative. The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer (each, a “Notifying Party”) shall each promptly forward all material notices or other communications delivered to it in connection with the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement to each other Notifying Party (unless a Notifying Party has actual knowledge that such other Notifying Party (i) was copied on such original notice or communication or (ii) actually received such notice or communication), the Operating Advisor, the Controlling Class Representative (if a Consultation Termination Event does not exist) and the Depositor and, if such notice or communication is in the nature of a notice or communication that would be required to be delivered to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider (for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 12.13) if the related Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan were a Mortgage Loan that is serviced and administered under this Agreement, to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall promptly post such notice to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 12.13); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall have no obligation to forward any such notice or communication under this provision unless (A) the Special Servicer is the only addressee of such notice or communication or (B) there is no addressee on such notice or communication. Any obligation of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as

(l)                 In order to comply with the laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable to banking institutions, including those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering (for the purposes of this clause (l), “Applicable Laws”), the Master Servicer may be required to obtain, verify and record certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship with the Master Servicer. Accordingly, each of the parties hereto agrees to provide to the Master Servicer, upon its reasonable request, from time to time such identifying information and documentation as may be readily available to such party in order to enable the Master Servicer to comply with Applicable Laws; provided that the Master Servicer shall be responsible for all reasonable actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such party in connection therewith.

Section 3.02           Liability of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement or primary servicing agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and any Person acting as Sub-Servicer (or its agents or subcontractors) or any reference to actions taken through any Person acting as Sub-Servicer or otherwise, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and any Serviced Companion Loan Holder for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and the Serviced Companion Loan(s) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Sub-Servicing Agreements, primary servicing agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as Sub-Servicer (or its agents or subcontractors) to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, alone were servicing and

  - 220 -  

 

administering the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and the Serviced Companion Loans. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with any Sub-Servicer providing for indemnification of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, by such Sub-Servicer, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification, but no such agreement for indemnification shall be deemed to limit or modify this Agreement.

Section 3.03           Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments.

(a)               The Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Serviced Loans it is obligated to service hereunder, and shall follow the Servicing Standard with respect to such collection procedures; provided that, with respect to any ARD Mortgage Loan, so long as the related Mortgagor is in compliance with each provision of the related Loan Documents, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not take any enforcement action with respect to the failure of the related Mortgagor to make any payment of Excess Interest, other than requests for collection, until the Maturity Date of any ARD Mortgage Loan or until the outstanding principal balance of such ARD Mortgage Loan (exclusive of any portion representing accrued Excess Interest) has been paid in full); provided, further, that, with respect to any ARD Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take action to enforce the Trust Fund’s right to apply excess cash flow to principal in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. For clarification, no obligation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to use reasonable efforts to collect fees from the related Mortgagor will change the obligation of the Master Servicer to pay such fees from general collections or other proceeds in accordance with Section 3.06(a) and Section 3.06A(a) of this Agreement, whether or not such Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees or Liquidation Fees are collected from or paid by the related Mortgagor. The Master Servicer, with respect to the Performing Serviced Loans, and the Special Servicer, with respect to the Specially Serviced Loans, shall use its reasonable efforts to collect income statements, rent rolls and other reporting information from Mortgagors (as required under the related Loan Documents). Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Serviced Loans) or Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, may in its discretion waive any Penalty Charges in connection with any delinquent Monthly Payment with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Companion Loan. In addition, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to take such actions with respect to the collection of payments on the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and the Serviced Companion Loan as are permitted or required under Section 3.21 of this Agreement. Furthermore, with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the related Loan Documents provide for the annual or quarterly testing of financial conditions of the related Mortgagor and/or Mortgaged Properties (e.g., debt yield tests, debt service coverage ratio tests and/or loan-to-value ratio tests) in connection with cash-management triggers or the commencement of additional required escrow payments, the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable (only to the extent the related information required for such testing is to be delivered to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer, as applicable, pursuant to the related Loan Documents and is actually delivered to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer, as applicable), shall use reasonable efforts to

  - 221 -  

 

conduct such financial testing within the timeframes contemplated by such Loan Documents, if any. Furthermore, in accordance with this Section 3.03(a), with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to collect financial statements from the related Mortgagor for the periods set forth in the related Loan Documents (e.g., and as applicable, for the entire fiscal year where annual reporting is required).

(b)               If the Master Servicer receives Excess Interest directly from the related Mortgagor or through the Special Servicer, which Excess Interest was collected during the Collection Period for any Distribution Date, or receives notice from the related Mortgagor that the Master Servicer will be receiving Excess Interest during the Collection Period for any Distribution Date, then the Master Servicer shall notify the Certificate Administrator no later than two Business Days prior to such Distribution Date by means of a clearly labeled item in the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee shall be responsible for any failure of the related Mortgagor to pay any such Excess Interest. The preceding statements shall not, however, be construed to limit the provisions of Section 3.03(a) of this Agreement.

(c)               With respect to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to the related Outside Trustee, the related Outside Certificate Administrator, the related Outside Special Servicer, the related Outside Servicer and the related Outside Operating Advisor (A) promptly following the Closing Date (or (1) in the case of each Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, promptly upon the related Servicing Shift Date, or (2) in the case of each Outside Serviced Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, promptly upon the related Controlling Pari Passu Companion Loan Securitization Date), written notice in the form of Exhibit FF-1, Exhibit FF-2, Exhibit FF-3, Exhibit FF-4 and Exhibit FF-5 attached hereto, as applicable, stating that, as of the Closing Date (or the related Servicing Shift Date, as applicable), the Trustee is the holder of such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan and directing each such recipient to remit to the Master Servicer all amounts payable to, and to forward, deliver or otherwise make available, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer all reports, statements, documents, communications and other information that are to be forwarded, delivered or otherwise made available to, the holder of such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan under the related Co-Lender Agreement and the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement (which notice shall also provide contact information for the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and each party designated to exercise the rights of the “Non-Controlling Note Holder” under the related Co-Lender Agreement), accompanied by a copy of an executed version of this Agreement, and (B) notice of any subsequent change in the identity of the Master Servicer or any party designated to exercise the rights of the “Non-Controlling Note Holder” under the related Co-Lender Agreement (together with the relevant contact information). Upon request of the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer shall provide its wire instructions for inclusion in the written notices referred to in the previous sentence. The Master Servicer shall, within one (1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified funds, deposit into the Collection Account all amounts received with respect to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property related to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property; provided, however, that to the extent any such amounts are received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time on any given Business Day, the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account

  - 222 -  

 

within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such amounts but, in any event, the Master Servicer shall deposit such amounts into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such amounts.

(d)               With respect to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, if the Master Servicer does not receive from the related Outside Servicer any Monthly Payment or other amounts known by the Master Servicer to be owing on such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and/or the related Co-Lender Agreement, then the Master Servicer shall provide notice of such failure to the related Outside Servicer and the related Outside Trustee.

Section 3.04           Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Escrow Accounts.

(a)               With respect to each Mortgaged Property securing a Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall maintain accurate records with respect to each related Mortgaged Property reflecting the status of taxes, assessments, ground rents and other similar items that are or may become a lien on the related Mortgaged Property and the status of insurance premiums payable with respect thereto. From time to time, to the extent such payments are to be made from escrowed funds, the Master Servicer shall (i) obtain all bills for the payment of such items (including renewal premiums), and (ii) effect payment of all such bills with respect to such Mortgaged Properties prior to the applicable penalty or termination date, in each case employing for such purpose Escrow Payments as allowed under the terms of the related Serviced Loan. With respect to non-escrowed payments, when the Master Servicer becomes aware in accordance with the Servicing Standard that a Mortgagor (other than with respect to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) has failed to make any such payment or, with respect to escrowed loans, collections from the Mortgagor are insufficient to pay any such item before the applicable penalty or termination date, the Master Servicer shall advance the amount of any shortfall as a Property Advance unless the Master Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer may in accordance with the Servicing Standard elect (but is not required) to make (and in the case of a Specially Serviced Loan, at the direction of the Special Servicer will be required to make) a payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account that would otherwise be a Property Advance with respect to a Serviced Trust Loan notwithstanding that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has determined that such a Property Advance would, if advanced, be a Nonrecoverable Property Advance, if making the payment (x) would prevent (i) the related Mortgaged Property from being uninsured or being sold at a tax sale or (ii) any event that would cause a loss of the priority of the lien of the related Mortgage, or the loss of any security for the related Trust Loan, or (y) would remediate any adverse environmental condition or circumstance at the related Mortgaged Property, if, in each instance, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that making the payment is in the best interest of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and such Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender (and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of the related Subordinate Companion Loan(s))). If the Special Servicer makes such a determination, it shall notify the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall make such payment

  - 223 -  

 

from the Collection Account. No costs incurred by the Master Servicer in effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties shall, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners, be added to the amount owing under the related Trust Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of such Trust Loans so permit.

(b)               The Master Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan constituting Escrow Payments separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more segregated custodial accounts (each, an “Escrow Account”) into which all Escrow Payments shall be deposited within two (2) Business Days after receipt of properly identified funds. The Master Servicer shall also deposit into each applicable Escrow Account any amounts representing losses on Permitted Investments to the extent required by Section 3.07(b) of this Agreement and any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds which are required to be applied to the restoration or repair of any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the related Loan Documents. Escrow Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts (except to the extent the related Loan Documents require or permit it to be held in an account that is not an Eligible Account) in accordance with the terms of the related Loan Documents) and (subject to any changes in the identities of the Master Servicer and/or the Trustee) shall be entitled, “Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, on behalf of Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Trustee for the benefit of the registered Holders of BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4, the Uncertificated Interest Owners, the Serviced Companion Loan Holders, and Various Mortgagors.” Withdrawals from an Escrow Account may be made by the Master Servicer only:

(i)                    to effect timely payments of items constituting Escrow Payments for the related Loan Documents and in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable;

(ii)                 to transfer funds to the Collection Account and/or the applicable Whole Loan Custodial Account to reimburse the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, for any Property Advance (with interest thereon at the Advance Rate) relating to Escrow Payments, but only from amounts received with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, which represent late collections of Escrow Payments thereunder;

(iii)               for application to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, and the Servicing Standard;

(iv)                to clear and terminate such Escrow Account upon the termination of this Agreement;

(v)                  to pay from time to time to the related Mortgagor (a) any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Escrow Account if such income is required to be paid to the related Mortgagor under law or by the terms of the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, or otherwise to the Master Servicer and

  - 224 -  

 

(b) any other funds required to be released to the related Mortgagors pursuant to the related Loan Documents; and

(vi)                to remove any funds deposited in an Escrow Account that were not required to be deposited therein.

(c)               In the event any Loan Documents permit the lender, at the discretion of the lender, to use letters of credit and/or cash reserves to prepay the related Trust Loan prior to the Maturity Date and in the absence of an event of default or acceleration of the Trust Loan, then the Master Servicer shall hold such amounts in an Escrow Account for so long as the Loan Documents permit such discretion.

(d)               Unless required by the related Loan Documents, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall apply any earnout escrows or reserves established with respect to any Trust Loan as a prepayment of such Trust Loan if no event of default has occurred under such Trust Loan.

(e)               To the extent that (i) an operations and maintenance plan is required to be established and executed pursuant to the terms of a Serviced Loan, or (ii) any repairs, capital improvements, actions or remediations are required to have been taken or completed pursuant to the terms of the Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall determine in accordance with the Servicing Standard (which determination may be made on the basis of inquiry to the Mortgagor and this sentence shall in no event be construed to require a physical inspection other than inspections described in Section 3.18 of this Agreement; provided that all deliveries required to be made to Master Servicer under the related Loan Documents of supporting documentation have been made; then the Master Servicer shall report the then current status as a failure) whether the related Mortgagor has failed to perform such obligations under the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan as of the date required under the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and report any such failure to the Special Servicer, the Serviced Companion Loan Holders and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative within a reasonable time after the date as of which such actions or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed.

Section 3.05           Collection Account; Distribution Accounts; and Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account; Excess Interest Distribution Account; and Legal Fee Reserve Account.

(a)               The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain the Collection Account in the Master Servicer’s name on behalf of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and the Trustee as the Holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests. The Collection Account shall be established and maintained as an Eligible Account. Amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans (other than the Excess Interest) will be assets of the Lower-Tier REMIC (or the related Loan REMIC, as applicable). As and when required under this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall transfer to the Collection Account any amounts to be transferred thereto from a Whole Loan Custodial Account as contemplated by Section 3.06A(a)(i) of this Agreement, and the Master Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amounts required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.07(b) of this Agreement in connection with net losses realized on Permitted

  - 225 -  

 

Investments with respect to funds held in the Collection Account. In addition, the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Collection Account, within one (1) Business Day following receipt of properly identified funds, (x) all Net Liquidation Proceeds received on or with respect to a Trust Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan in connection with any of the events described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of the first sentence of the definition of “Liquidation Event” in this Agreement, and (y) without duplication, the following payments and collections received or made by it on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan):

(i)                  all payments on account of principal on such Mortgage Loans, including Principal Prepayments and the principal component of Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds;

(ii)                all payments on account of interest on such Mortgage Loans (including Excess Interest);

(iii)              all Yield Maintenance Charges on such Mortgage Loans;

(iv)              all amounts with respect to any related REO Property transferred to the Collection Account, or to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, from an REO Account pursuant to Section 3.16(b) of this Agreement;

(v)                all Net Insurance Proceeds, Net Condemnation and Net Liquidation Proceeds with respect to such Mortgage Loans;

(vi)              any amounts received from Mortgagors under such Mortgage Loans that represent (A) recoveries of Property Protection Expenses, (B) any recovery of Unliquidated Advances with respect to such Mortgage Loans, or (C) any other reimbursements in accordance with the related Loan Documents, in each case to the extent not permitted to be retained by the Master Servicer as provided herein;

(vii)             any Loss of Value Payments, as set forth in Section 3.06(c) of this Agreement; and

(viii)           any other amounts required by the provisions of this Agreement to be deposited into the Collection Account by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, including pursuant to Section 2.03 and Section 3.03(c) of this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent any amounts referred to in clauses (x) or (y) above of this Section 3.05(a) are received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time on any given Business Day, the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account within one (1) Business Day of receipt thereof but, in any event, the Master Servicer shall deposit such amounts into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof.

The foregoing requirements for deposits in the Collection Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent provided herein, Ancillary Fees, Consent Fees, Assumption Fees, assumption application fees, defeasance fees, review fees and other amounts that constitute other Additional

  - 226 -  

 

Servicing Compensation or other Additional Special Servicing Compensation need not be deposited in the Collection Account by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be entitled to retain any such Ancillary Fees, Consent Fees, Assumption Fees, assumption application fees, defeasance fees, review fees and/or amounts that constitute other Additional Servicing Compensation or other Additional Special Servicing Compensation received with respect to such Mortgage Loans in accordance with Section 3.12 of this Agreement; provided that if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives any such Ancillary Fees, Consent Fees, Assumption Fees, assumption application fees, defeasance fees and/or amounts that constitute other Additional Servicing Compensation or other Additional Special Servicing Compensation in excess of the percentage of such fees to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 3.12(a) (in the case of the Master Servicer) or Section 3.12(c) (in the case of the Special Servicer), then it shall remit to the other party (i.e. the Special Servicer (if Master Servicer has received the excess percentage of such fees) or the Master Servicer (if Special Servicer has received the excess percentage of such fees), as applicable) the percentage of such fees to which such other party is entitled pursuant to Section 3.12(a) or Section 3.12(c), as applicable. To the extent that any Penalty Charges or Modification Fees received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to any Mortgage Loan constitute servicing compensation pursuant to Section 3.14(a)(iv) of this Agreement, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not deposit such fees into the Collection Account and shall instead apply such fees in accordance with Section 3.14(a)(iv) of this Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer deposits in the Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Master Servicer shall give written notice to the Certificate Administrator and the Special Servicer of the location and account number of the Collection Account and shall notify the Certificate Administrator and the Special Servicer in writing of any subsequent change thereof.

Upon receipt of any of the amounts described in clauses (i) through (vi) and (viii) of the last sentence of the second preceding paragraph with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than a Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan), the Special Servicer shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after receipt of properly identified funds, remit such amounts to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account in accordance with the second preceding paragraph, unless the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that a particular item should not be deposited because of a restrictive endorsement or other appropriate reason; provided, however, that to the extent any amounts described in clauses (i) through (vi) and (viii) of the last sentence of the second preceding paragraph are received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time on any given Business Day, the Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remit such amounts to the Master Servicer within one (1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified funds but, in any event, the Special Servicer shall remit such amounts to the Master Servicer within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds. With respect to any such amounts paid by check to the order of the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall endorse such check to the order of the Master Servicer, unless the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that a particular item cannot be so endorsed and delivered because of a restrictive endorsement or other appropriate reason. Any such amounts received by the Special Servicer with respect to an REO Property that relates to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan) shall initially be deposited

  - 227 -  

 

by the Special Servicer into the related REO Account (or, at the option of the Special Servicer, remitted by the applicable property manager directly to the Master Servicer) and thereafter remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, all in accordance with Section 3.16 of this Agreement.

(b)               The Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account and the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account in the name of the Certificate Administrator on behalf of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners. The Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain each Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC Distribution Account in the name of the Certificate Administrator on behalf of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the related Loan-Specific Certificates and any Uncertificated Interest Owners. Each of the foregoing accounts shall be non-interest bearing and shall be established and maintained as Eligible Accounts or as sub-accounts of a single Eligible Account. With respect to each Distribution Date, on or before such Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall be deemed to make or shall make the withdrawals from the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC Distribution Accounts as set forth in Section 4.01 of this Agreement, shall be deemed to make the deposits into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC Distribution Accounts as set forth in Section 4.01 hereof, and shall cause the Available Funds (including P&I Advances) and Yield Maintenance Charges to be distributed in respect of the applicable Certificates and Uncertificated VRR Interest, pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof on such date.

Amounts deposited into and withdrawn from the Collection Account in respect of any Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to be distributed in respect of the related Loan REMIC Regular Interest and the related Loan REMIC Residual Interest in accordance with the related REMIC Declaration. Amounts deemed distributed in respect of any Loan REMIC Regular Interest shall be deposited in the Lower-Tier Distribution Account, and amounts deemed distributed in respect of any Loan REMIC Residual Interest shall be deposited into the Loan REMIC Residual Distribution Account to be distributed to the Class R Certificates as set forth in Section 4.01(m) or the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trust Fund will not include any Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan or Loan REMIC as of the Closing Date, and there will be no REMIC Declaration, Loan REMIC Regular Interest or Loan REMIC Residual Interest with respect to the Trust, and no REMIC Residual Distribution Account shall be established. Accordingly, all references in this Agreement to “Loan REMIC”, “Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan”, “Loan REMIC Regular Interest”, “Loan REMIC Residual Interest” and “REMIC Residual Distribution Account “ shall be disregarded.

(c)               The Certificate Administrator shall establish (upon receipt of written notice that an event that generates Excess Liquidation Proceeds has occurred) and maintain the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account in the name of the Certificate Administrator on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner. The Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account shall be non-interest bearing and shall be maintained separate and apart from trust funds for mortgage pass-through certificates of other

  - 228 -  

 

series administered by the Certificate Administrator and other accounts of the Certificate Administrator.

Upon the disposition of any REO Property in accordance with Section 3.17 of this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall calculate the Excess Liquidation Proceeds, if any, realized in connection with such sale. The Special Servicer shall withdraw from each applicable REO Account and remit to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account on a monthly basis prior to the related Master Servicer Remittance Date the Excess Liquidation Proceeds received or collected from each REO Property during the related Collection Period, along with a notation of the amount of such Excess Liquidation Proceeds in the CREFC^® REO Liquidation Report. On the related Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall remit the Excess Liquidation Proceeds received from the Special Servicer pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account. Amounts held in the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account on each Distribution Date that exceed amounts reasonably anticipated to be required to offset possible future Realized Losses and other shortfalls in payments on the Regular Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest, as determined by the Special Servicer, and all amounts held in the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account on the final Distribution Date, in each case after application in accordance with the first two sentences of Section 4.01(e) of this Agreement, shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Lower-Tier Residual Interest.

(d)               The Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain the Loan REMIC Residual Distribution Account in the name of the Certificate Administrator, in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Class R Certificates. The Loan REMIC Residual Distribution Account shall be established and maintained as an Eligible Account (or as a subaccount of an Eligible Account). Prior to the applicable Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and remit to the Certificate Administrator on the applicable Master Servicer Remittance Date for deposit in the Loan REMIC Residual Distribution Account amounts deemed distributed on the Loan REMIC Residual Interest from the Loan REMIC pursuant to the related REMIC Declaration prior to the Determination Date for the applicable Collection Period.

The Certificate Administrator shall, on any Distribution Date, make withdrawals from the Loan REMIC Residual Distribution Account to the extent required to make the distributions in respect of the Loan REMIC Residual Interest required by Section 4.01(m). For the avoidance of doubt, the Trust Fund will not include any Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan or Loan REMIC as of the Closing Date, and there will be no REMIC Declaration, Loan REMIC Regular Interest and Loan REMIC Residual Interest with respect to the Trust, and no REMIC Residual Distribution Account shall be established. Accordingly, all references in this Agreement to “Loan REMIC”, “Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan”, “Loan REMIC Regular Interest”, “Loan REMIC Residual Interest” and “REMIC Residual Distribution Account “ shall be disregarded.

(e)               Prior to the Master Servicer Remittance Date immediately following the end of the first Collection Period during which Excess Interest is received on any ARD Mortgage Loan, and upon notification from the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.03(b) of this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain the Excess Interest Distribution Account in

  - 229 -  

 

the name of the Certificate Administrator on behalf of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Excess Interest Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner. The Excess Interest Distribution Account shall be non-interest bearing and shall be established and maintained as an Eligible Account (or as a subaccount of an Eligible Account). With respect to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and remit to the Certificate Administrator on the applicable Master Servicer Remittance Date for deposit in the Excess Interest Distribution Account an amount equal to the Excess Interest received during the applicable Collection Period.

The Certificate Administrator shall, on any Distribution Date, make withdrawals from the Excess Interest Distribution Account to the extent required to make the distributions of Excess Interest required by Section 4.01(k) of this Agreement.

Following the distribution of Excess Interest to the Holders of the Excess Interest Certificates and the Combined VRR Interest Owner on the first Distribution Date after which there are no longer any ARD Mortgage Loans outstanding, the Certificate Administrator may terminate the Excess Interest Distribution Account.

(f)                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC Distribution Accounts, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and the Interest Reserve Account may all be sub-accounts of a single Eligible Account; provided that each of them shall be treated as a separate account for purposes of deposits and withdrawals under this Agreement.

(g)               If any Loss of Value Payments are received in connection with a Material Document Defect or Material Breach, as the case may be, pursuant to or as contemplated by Section 2.03(a) of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (collectively, the “Loss of Value Reserve Fund”) to be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners, for purposes of holding such Loss of Value Payments. Each account that constitutes the Loss of Value Reserve Fund shall be an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account. The Master Servicer shall, upon receipt, deposit in the Loss of Value Reserve Fund all Loss of Value Payments received by it. The Loss of Value Reserve Fund shall be accounted for as an outside reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h) and not an asset of any Trust REMIC. Furthermore, for all federal tax purposes, the Certificate Administrator shall (i) treat amounts paid out of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund (and any income earned thereon) through the Collection Account to the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners (or, in the case of any income earned on the Loss of Value Reserve Fund and paid to the Master Servicer as additional compensation) as damages paid to and distributed by the Trust REMICs on account of a breach of a representation or warranty by the related Mortgage Loan Seller and (ii) treat any amounts paid out of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund through the Collection Account to a Mortgage Loan Seller as distributions by the Trust Fund to such Mortgage Loan Seller as beneficial owner of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund. The applicable Mortgage Loan Seller will be the beneficial owner of the related account in the Loss of Value Reserve Fund for all federal income tax purposes, and shall be taxable on all income earned thereon.

(h)               For the avoidance of doubt, the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account, and the related portion of the Interest Reserve Account (including interest, if any, earned on the investment of funds in such accounts) will be owned by the Lower-Tier REMIC, the Excess Interest Distribution Account will be owned by the Grantor Trust, the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account (including interest, if any, earned on the investment of funds in such account) will be owned by the Upper-Tier REMIC, and the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC Distribution Account and the related portion of the Interest Reserve Account (including interest, if any, earned on the investment of funds in such accounts) will be owned by each Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC, each for federal income tax purposes.

(i)                 On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deposit $150,000 with the Certificate Administrator, to be credited to the Legal Fee Reserve Account. Funds held in the Legal Fee Reserve Account shall remain uninvested. The Legal Fee Reserve Account shall be accounted for as an outside reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h) and not an asset of any Trust REMIC. On a periodic basis (no more frequently than once every 60 days), commencing on June 1, 2024, upon receipt by the Certificate Administrator from the Depositor or the Depositor’s counsel (with a copy to the Depositor) of a legal invoice related to Commission compliance matters, the Certificate Administrator shall (solely in the case of a legal invoice delivered by the Depositor’s counsel, upon email confirmation by the Depositor) pay such legal invoice from and solely to the extent of funds then on deposit in the Legal Fee Reserve Account. Any such instruction shall be sent by email to CCTCMBSBondAdmin@computershare.com, along with a copy of the invoice, and a subject line reference of “BMO 2024-5C4 - Legal Fee Reserve Account”. The Legal Fee Reserve Account will not be a part of the Trust Fund, any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust. The Depositor will be the beneficial owner of the Legal Fee Reserve Account for all federal income tax purposes, and shall be taxable on all income earned therefrom.

Upon the depletion of the Legal Fee Reserve Account, or if there are insufficient funds to pay any invoice, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Depositor, and thereafter the Depositor shall pay any additional legal invoices from its own funds and the Certificate Administrator shall have no responsibility in connection therewith.

The Certificate Administrator shall have no responsibility for verifying the accuracy, reasonableness, or appropriateness of any invoice received. On the final Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall pay to the Depositor any funds then remaining in the Legal Fee Reserve Account in accordance with directions provided by the Depositor.

(a)               The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan (if any), one or more separate accounts, which may be sub-accounts of a single account (with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the “Whole Loan Custodial Account”) in which the amounts described in clauses (i) through (viii) below shall be deposited and held in the name of the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders, Uncertificated Interest Owners and the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s), as their interests may appear; provided that a Whole

  - 231 -  

 

Loan Custodial Account may be a sub-account of the Collection Account or another Whole Loan Custodial Account (but shall be deemed to be a separate account for purposes of applying the terms of this Agreement). Each of the Whole Loan Custodial Accounts shall be an Eligible Account or a subaccount of an Eligible Account. The Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in each Whole Loan Custodial Account, within one Business Day following receipt of properly identified funds (or, in the case of payments by the Master Servicer, when otherwise required to be so deposited under this Agreement), the following payments and collections received or made by it on or with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan:

(v)                all amounts with respect to any REO Property acquired in respect of the related Serviced Whole Loan transferred to such Whole Loan Custodial Account, or the Master Servicer for deposit in such Whole Loan Custodial Account, from the related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.16(b) of this Agreement;

(vi)              all Net Condemnation Proceeds, Net Insurance Proceeds and Net Liquidation Proceeds with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan (other than any Net Liquidation Proceeds received on or in respect of the related Mortgage Loan in connection with any of the events described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of the first sentence of the definition of “Liquidation Event” in this Agreement);

(vii)            any amounts received from the Mortgagor under the related Serviced Whole Loan that represent (A) recoveries of Property Protection Expenses, or (B) any other reimbursements in accordance with the related Loan Documents, in each case to the extent not permitted to be retained by the Master Servicer as provided herein; and

(viii)           any other amounts required by the provisions of this Agreement to be deposited into such Whole Loan Custodial Account by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, including any recovery of any Unliquidated Advances;

provided, however, that to the extent any such amounts are received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time on any given Business Day, the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deposit such amounts into the related Whole Loan Custodial Account within one (1) Business Day

  - 232 -  

 

of receipt thereof but, in any event, the Master Servicer shall deposit such amounts into the related Whole Loan Custodial Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof.

(b)               The foregoing requirements for deposits in each Whole Loan Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent provided herein, Ancillary Fees, Consent Fees, Assumption Fees, assumption application fees, defeasance fees, review fees and other amounts that constitute other Additional Servicing Compensation or other Additional Special Servicing Compensation need not be deposited in such Whole Loan Custodial Account by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be entitled to retain any such Ancillary Fees, Consent Fees, Assumption Fees, assumption application fees, defeasance fees, review fees and/or other amounts that constitute other Additional Servicing Compensation or other Additional Special Servicing Compensation received with respect to the Serviced Whole Loans in accordance with Section 3.12 of this Agreement; provided that if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives any such Ancillary Fees, Consent Fees, Assumption Fees, assumption application fees, defeasance fees and/or amounts that constitute other Additional Servicing Compensation or other Additional Special Servicing Compensation in excess of the percentage of such fees to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 3.12(a) (in the case of the Master Servicer) or Section 3.12(c) (in the case of the Special Servicer), then it shall remit to the other party (i.e. the Special Servicer (if Master Servicer has received the excess percentage of such fees) or the Master Servicer (if Special Servicer has received the excess percentage of such fees), as applicable) the percentage of such fees to which such other party is entitled pursuant to Section 3.12(a) or Section 3.12(c), as applicable. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not deposit any Modification Fees received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan into the related Whole Loan Custodial Account and shall instead apply such fees (except to the extent not permitted under the related Co-Lender Agreement) in accordance with Section 3.14 of this Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer deposits in a Whole Loan Custodial Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from such Whole Loan Custodial Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Master Servicer shall give written notice to the Certificate Administrator, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holders and the Special Servicer of the location and account number of each Whole Loan Custodial Account and shall notify the Certificate Administrator, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder and the Special Servicer in writing of any subsequent change thereof. Each Whole Loan Custodial Account shall be maintained as a segregated account (or sub-account of such segregated account), separate and apart from trust funds created for mortgage backed securities of other series and the other accounts of the Master Servicer.

(c)               Upon receipt of any of the amounts described in clauses (i) through (viii) of Section 3.05A(a) with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after receipt of properly identified funds, remit such amounts to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Whole Loan Custodial Account in accordance with Section 3.05A(a), unless the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that a particular item should not be deposited because of a restrictive endorsement or other appropriate reason; provided, however, that to the extent any amounts described in clauses (i) through (viii) of the last sentence of the second preceding paragraph are received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time on any given Business Day, the Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable

  - 233 -  

 

efforts to remit such amounts to the Master Servicer within one (1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified funds but, in any event, the Special Servicer shall remit such amounts to the Master Servicer within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds. With respect to any such amounts paid by check to the order of the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall endorse such check to the order of the Master Servicer, unless the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that a particular item cannot be so endorsed and delivered because of a restrictive endorsement or other appropriate reason. Any such amounts received by the Special Servicer with respect to an REO Property that relates to a Serviced Whole Loan shall initially be deposited by the Special Servicer into the related REO Account (or, at the option of the Special Servicer, remitted by the applicable property manager directly to the Master Servicer) and thereafter remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit into the related Whole Loan Custodial Account, all in accordance with Section 3.17 of this Agreement.

Special Servicer (or such third party contractor), the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, is entitled (unless such payment to the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, is clearly required pursuant to this Agreement, in which case a written statement is not required). The Master Servicer may rely conclusively on any such written statement and shall have no duty to recalculate the amounts stated therein. The parties seeking payment pursuant to this Section shall each keep and maintain a separate accounting for the purpose of justifying any request for withdrawal from each Collection Account, on a loan-by-loan basis.

With respect to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall pay to, subject to Section 3.01(j)(i) and (j)(ii), the related Outside Servicer, the related Outside Special Servicer, the related Outside Certificate Administrator or the related Outside Trustee, as applicable, from the Collection Account on the Master Servicer Remittance Date amounts permitted to be paid to the related Outside Servicer, the related Outside Special Servicer, the related Outside Certificate Administrator or the related Outside Trustee, as applicable, therefrom based upon an Officer’s Certificate received from the related Outside Servicer, the related Outside Special Servicer, the related Outside Certificate Administrator or the related Outside Trustee, as applicable, on the first Business Day following the immediately preceding Determination Date, describing the item and amount to which the related Outside Servicer, the related Outside Special Servicer, the related Outside Certificate Administrator or the related Outside Trustee, as applicable, is entitled.

sentence is required to be delivered hereunder, the Master Servicer shall not have delivered to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account and the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account the amounts required to be deposited therein pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 3.06(a)(i) of this Agreement), then the Certificate Administrator shall, to the extent that a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Administrator has such knowledge, provide notice of such failure to the Master Servicer by facsimile transmission sent to telecopy number (866) 706-3565 (or such alternative number provided by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator in writing) and by electronic mail at NoticeAdmin@midlandls.com (or such alternative electronic mail address provided by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator in writing) as soon as possible, but in any event before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on such day; provided, however, that the Master Servicer will pay the Certificate Administrator interest on such late payment at the Prime Rate until such late payment is received by the Certificate Administrator.

(c)               If any Loss of Value Payments are deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund with respect to any Mortgage Loan, any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan or any related REO Property, then upon direction from the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer shall (provided that, (1) with respect to clause (iv) below, the Special Servicer shall have provided notice to the Master Servicer of the occurrence of such Liquidation Event and (2) with respect to clause (v) below, the Certificate Administrator shall have provided the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with five Business Days’ prior notice of such final Distribution Date) transfer such Loss of Value Payments (up to the remaining portion thereof) from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to the Collection Account (or, in the case of clause (v) below, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers), for the following purposes:

(i)                                              to reimburse the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, in accordance with Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement, for any Nonrecoverable Advance made by such party with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, or any related REO Property (together with any related Advance Interest Amounts);

(ii)                                           (A) to pay, in accordance with Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement, or to reimburse the Trust for the prior payment of, any expense relating to such Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, or any related REO Property that constitutes or, if not paid out of such Loss of Value Payments, would constitute an Additional Trust Fund Expense, and (B) to pay, in accordance with Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement, any unpaid Liquidation Fee due and owing to the Special Servicer in connection with the receipt of such Loss of Value Payments;

(iii)                                        to offset any portion of Realized Losses that are attributable to such Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, or related REO Property (as calculated without regard to the application of such Loss of Value Payments), incurred with respect to such Mortgage Loan (or any related successor REO Mortgage Loan with respect thereto) or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan (or any related successor REO Companion Loan with respect thereto);

(iv)                                       following the occurrence of a Liquidation Event with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, or any related REO Property and any related transfers from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund with respect to the items contemplated by the immediately preceding clauses (i) through (iii) above as to such Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, to cover the items contemplated by the immediately preceding clauses (i), (ii)(A) and (iii) in respect of any other Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan; and

(v)                                         on the final Distribution Date after all distributions have been made as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, to each Mortgage Loan Seller, its pro rata share of any remaining funds, based on the amount that it contributed, net of any amount contributed by such Mortgage Loan Seller that was used pursuant to clauses (i) through (iii) above to offset any portion of Realized Losses that are attributable to the Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, or any related REO Property for which the contribution was made, Additional Trust Fund Expenses or any Nonrecoverable Advances incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, or any related REO Property for which the contribution was made.

Any Loss of Value Payments transferred to the Collection Account pursuant to clauses (i) through (iii) of the prior paragraph shall be treated as Liquidation Proceeds received by the Trust in respect of the related Mortgage Loan (or any successor REO Mortgage Loan with respect thereto) or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan (or any related successor REO Companion Loan with respect thereto) for which such Loss of Value Payments were received; and any Loss of Value Payments transferred to the Collection Account pursuant to clause (iv) of the prior paragraph shall be treated as Liquidation Proceeds received by the Trust in respect of the Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan for which such Loss of Value Payments are being transferred to the Collection Account to cover an item contemplated by clauses (i), (ii)(A) and (iii) of the prior paragraph.

Section 3.06A. Permitted Withdrawals From the Whole Loan Custodial Account.

(a)               The Master Servicer may make withdrawals from the Whole Loan Custodial Account for each Serviced Whole Loan only as described below (the order set forth below not constituting an order of priority for such withdrawals), subject to the application of Penalty Charges and Modification Fees in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement and Section 3.14 of this Agreement:

(i)                                             (A) after the Determination Date, and on or prior to the Business Day immediately preceding the Master Servicer Remittance Date, in each calendar month (and also on the Business Day immediately following the receipt of any funds from the REO Account for any REO Property related to such Serviced Whole Loan, if such funds are received after the Determination Date and before the Distribution Date in any calendar month and were not available for any earlier transfer to the Collection Account in such calendar month), to transfer to the Collection Account all properly identified amounts on deposit in the Whole Loan Custodial Account payable to the Trust pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement with respect to the related Mortgage Loan (or any successor REO

  - 241 -  

 

Mortgage Loan), including any applicable Trust Reimbursement Amount, and (B) (1) on or prior to the related Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date in each calendar month, to remit to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder all properly identified amounts on deposit in the Whole Loan Custodial Account that are received as of the Business Day immediately prior to such Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date that are payable to such Serviced Companion Loan Holder pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan (or any successor REO Companion Loan), exclusive of any applicable Trust Reimbursement Amount and (2) on the Business Day immediately following the receipt of any properly identified funds from the REO Account for any REO Property related to such Serviced Whole Loan, if such funds are received on or after the related Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date and before the Distribution Date in any calendar month, to remit to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder all properly identified amounts on deposit in the Whole Loan Custodial Account payable to such Serviced Companion Loan Holder pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan or any successor REO Companion Loan, exclusive of any applicable Trust Reimbursement Amount;

(ii)                                           to pay or reimburse the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, for Advances made thereby with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan and any related Advance Interest Amounts (provided that the Trustee shall have priority with respect to such payment or reimbursement of any such Advances and any related Advance Interest Amounts), the Master Servicer’s right to reimburse any such Person pursuant to this clause (ii) being limited to late collections (including cure payments by related Serviced Companion Loan Holders) of the particular item which was the subject of the related Advance, Penalty Charges, Net Condemnation Proceeds, Net REO Proceeds, Net Insurance Proceeds and Net Liquidation Proceeds on or in respect of the particular Serviced Whole Loan or any related REO Property; provided, however, that if such Advance has become a Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount (but not a Nonrecoverable Advance), then neither such Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount nor any related Advance Interest Amounts shall be reimbursed or paid, as the case may be, out of payments or other collections of interest (other than Penalty Charges) or Yield Maintenance Charges on or in respect of the related Mortgage Loan (or any successor REO Mortgage Loan) or the related Serviced Companion Loan (or any successor REO Companion Loan); and provided, further, that if such Advance is a P&I Advance with respect to the related Mortgage Loan (or a successor REO Mortgage Loan) or a related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan (or a successor REO Companion Loan), then neither such Advance nor any related Advance Interest Amounts shall be reimbursed or paid, as the case may be, out of, or otherwise result in a reduction of, amounts otherwise payable to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan(s) (or any successor REO Companion Loan(s)), except that in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, reimbursements or payments, as the case may be, of Advances or any related Advance Interest Amounts shall be made taking into account the subordinate nature of the related Subordinate Companion Loan(s) to the extent set forth in, and in accordance with, the related Co-Lender Agreement;

(iii)                                        to pay on or before each Master Servicer Remittance Date (A) to the Master Servicer (who shall pay the holder of the Excess Servicing Fee Rights the

  - 242 -  

 

portion of the Servicing Fee that represents Excess Servicing Fees in accordance with Section 3.12 of this Agreement) as compensation, the aggregate unpaid Servicing Fee with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan (to the extent not otherwise required to be applied against Prepayment Interest Shortfalls) in respect of the immediately preceding Interest Accrual Period, to be paid from interest received on the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, and to pay from time to time to the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 3.07(b) any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in such Whole Loan Custodial Account and (B) to the Special Servicer as compensation, any Special Servicing Compensation payable with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan; provided, however, that no Servicing Fees or Special Servicing Compensation earned with respect to the related Mortgage Loan (or a successor REO Mortgage Loan) shall be payable out of, or otherwise result in a reduction of, amounts otherwise payable to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan (or any successor REO Companion Loan) (provided that, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, such payments shall be made taking into account the subordinate nature of the related Subordinate Companion Loan(s) to the extent set forth in, and in accordance with, the related Co-Lender Agreement), and no Servicing Fees or Special Servicing Compensation earned with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan (or any successor REO Companion Loan) not held by the Trust shall be payable out of, or otherwise result in a reduction of, amounts otherwise payable to the Trust with respect to the related Mortgage Loan (or a successor REO Mortgage Loan) (it being acknowledged and agreed that this proviso is in no way intended to limit the rights of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer under the related Co-Lender Agreement to seek payment of any unpaid Servicing Fees or Special Servicing Compensation, as applicable, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan not held by the Trust from the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder);

(iv)                                       to pay for costs and expenses incurred by the Trust Fund solely with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan and related REO Property pursuant to Section 3.10(e) and to pay Liquidation Expenses out of Liquidation Proceeds pursuant to Section 3.11;

(v)                                          to the extent not reimbursed or paid pursuant to any other clause of this Section 3.06A, to reimburse or pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor, as applicable, for unpaid Additional Trust Fund Expenses, Servicing Fees and other unpaid items incurred by or owing to such Person pursuant to the second sentence of Section 3.07(c), Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b), Section 3.10, the second sentence of Section 3.12(a), the third sentence of Section 3.12(c), Section 3.16(a), Section 3.29, Section 6.03, Section 7.04, Section 8.05(a), Section 8.05(b), Section 8.05(d), Section 11.02(a), Section 11.02(b) or Section 12.07, or any other provision of this Agreement pursuant to which such Person is entitled to reimbursement or payment from the Trust Fund, in each case only to the extent expressly reimbursable under such Section and to the extent related to such Serviced Whole Loan and not related to amounts which are solely expenses of the Trust Fund (such as expenses related to administration of the Trust Fund or REMIC taxes, penalties or interest or preservation of the REMIC status of each Trust REMIC), it being acknowledged that this clause (v) shall not be deemed to modify the substance of any such Section , including the provisions of such Section that

  - 243 -  

 

set forth the extent to which one of the foregoing Persons is or is not entitled to payment or reimbursement; provided, however, that no payment or reimbursement to the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Certificate Administrator or payment or reimbursement of costs and expenses associated with obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation, shall be made out of, or otherwise result in a reduction of, amounts otherwise payable to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan (or successor REO Companion Loan) (provided that, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, such payments or reimbursements shall be made taking into account the subordinate nature of the related Subordinate Companion Loan(s) to the extent set forth in, and in accordance with, the related Co-Lender Agreement), no payment of fees or other compensation to the Operating Advisor, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator with respect to a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan or successor REO Companion Loan shall be made out of, or otherwise result in a reduction of, collections on or otherwise allocable to the related Mortgage Loan or a successor REO Mortgage Loan with respect thereto, and no payment or reimbursement of costs and expenses associated with obtaining a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation shall be made out of, or otherwise result in a reduction of, amounts otherwise payable to the Trust with respect to the related Mortgage Loan (or any successor REO Mortgage Loan) or any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan (or any successor REO Companion Loan);

(vi)                                       to make such payments and reimbursements out of Penalty Charges and Modification Fees on deposit in such Whole Loan Custodial Account as are contemplated by the related Co-Lender Agreement and Section 3.14 of this Agreement;

(vii)                                    to withdraw any amount deposited into such Whole Loan Custodial Account that was not required to be deposited therein;

(viii)                                 if the related Serviced Companion Loan (or any successor REO Companion Loan with respect thereto) is part of an Other Securitization Trust, to the extent required by the related Co-Lender Agreement, to reimburse the applicable party to the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any advances of delinquent monthly debt service payments made thereby with respect to such Serviced Companion Loan (or REO Companion Loan), together with interest thereon, provided that such reimbursement, together with interest, shall be made solely out of payments and other collections on such Serviced Companion Loan (or REO Companion Loan); or

(ix)                                         to clear and terminate such Whole Loan Custodial Account pursuant to Section 9.01 of this Agreement.

The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan-by-Mortgage Loan and Companion Loan-by-Companion Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from each Whole Loan Custodial Account pursuant to subclauses (i) through (ix) above. If and to the extent that the Master Servicer has reimbursed or made payment to itself or any other Person pursuant to any clause of the prior paragraph above for any cost, expense, indemnity, or Property Advance or Advance Interest Amount thereon with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan out of monies allocable to the related Mortgage Loan (or any successor REO Mortgage Loan) to an extent that the Trust as holder of the related Mortgage Loan has borne some

  - 244 -  

 

or all of the related Serviced Companion Loan’s allocable share of such cost, expense, indemnity, or Property Advance or Advance Interest Amount thereon (taking into account the subordinate nature of any related Subordinate Companion Loan(s) to the extent set forth in, and in accordance with, the related Co-Lender Agreement), the Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts disproportionately borne by the Trust out of collections on such Serviced Companion Loan (or, if and to the extent permitted under the related Co-Lender Agreement, from the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder) and deposit all such amounts (collectively, with respect to such Serviced Companion Loan, the “Trust Reimbursement Amount No.2” and, together with Trust Reimbursement Amount No.1, the “Trust Reimbursement Amount”) collected from or on behalf of the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder into the Collection Account.

The Master Servicer shall pay to each of the Special Servicer (or to third party contractors at the direction of the Special Servicer), the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and an advancing party under any Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, from the applicable Whole Loan Custodial Account, amounts permitted to be paid thereto from such account promptly upon receipt of a written statement of an officer of the Special Servicer, an officer of the Operating Advisor, a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator or an officer of such advancing party under such Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as the case may be, describing the item and amount to which the Special Servicer (or such third party contractor), the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or such advancing party under such Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as the case may be, is entitled (unless such payment to the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, is clearly required pursuant to this Agreement, in which case a written statement is not required). The Master Servicer may rely conclusively on any such written statement and shall have no duty to re-calculate the amounts stated therein. The parties seeking payment pursuant to this Section shall each keep and maintain separate accounting for the purpose of justifying any request for withdrawal from each Whole Loan Custodial Account, on a loan-by-loan basis.

The Trustee, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer shall in all cases have a right prior to the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners to any funds on deposit in a Whole Loan Custodial Account from time to time for the reimbursement or payment of the Servicing Fees (including investment income), or Special Servicing Compensation, Advances, Advance Interest Amounts and their respective indemnity amounts or expenses hereunder to the extent such fees, indemnity amounts and expenses are to be reimbursed or paid from amounts on deposit in such Whole Loan Custodial Account pursuant to this Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement (and to have such amounts paid directly to third party contractors for any invoices approved by the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable); provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, neither the Trustee/Certificate Administrator Fees nor the Operating Advisor Fee shall be paid from funds on deposit in a Whole Loan Custodial Account.

After the Determination Date, and on or prior to the Business Day immediately preceding the Master Servicer Remittance Date, in each calendar month (and also on the Business Day immediately following the receipt of any funds from the REO Account for any REO Property

  - 245 -  

 

related to the applicable Serviced Whole Loan, if such funds are received after the Determination Date and before the Distribution Date in any calendar month and were not available for any earlier transfer to the Collection Account in such calendar month), the Master Servicer shall remit for deposit in the Collection Account all amounts on deposit in a Whole Loan Custodial Account payable to the Trust pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement with respect to the related Mortgage Loan (or any successor REO Mortgage Loan), including any applicable Trust Reimbursement Amount; and on or prior to the related Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date in each calendar month (and also on the Business Day immediately following the receipt of any funds from the REO Account for any REO Property related to the applicable Serviced Whole Loan, if such funds are received after the Determination Date and before the Distribution Date in any calendar month), the Master Servicer shall remit to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder all amounts on deposit in a Whole Loan Custodial Account payable to such Serviced Companion Loan Holder pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan (or any successor REO Companion Loan), exclusive of any applicable Trust Reimbursement Amount, in each case, prior to the required remittance from the Collection Account to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on such Master Servicer Remittance Date.

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to each Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the related Whole Loan Custodial Account and remit to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, within one (1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified funds, any amounts that represent late collections or Principal Prepayments received by the Master Servicer from the related Mortgagor that are allocable to such Serviced Companion Loan or any successor REO Companion Loan with respect thereto (exclusive of any portion of such amount paid or reimbursed to any third party in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement) unless such amount would otherwise be included in the monthly remittance to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder for such month pursuant to Section 3.06A(a); provided, however, that to the extent any such amounts are received after 3:00 p.m. Eastern time on any given Business Day, the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remit such amounts to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder within one (1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified funds but, in any event, the Master Servicer shall remit such amounts within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds.

Section 3.07           Investment of Funds in the Collection Account, the REO Account, the Mortgagor Accounts, and Other Accounts.

(a)               The Master Servicer or, with respect to any REO Account, the Special Servicer, may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account, any Whole Loan Custodial Account, any Mortgagor Account (subject to the second succeeding sentence), any REO Account or any Loss of Value Reserve Fund (each of the Collection Account, any Whole Loan Custodial Account, any REO Account, any Loss of Value Reserve Fund and any Mortgagor Account, for purposes of this Section 3.07, an “Investment Account”), to invest the funds in such Investment Account in one or more Permitted Investments that bear interest or are sold at a discount, and that mature, unless payable on demand, no later than the Business Day preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such Investment Account pursuant to this Agreement. Any direction by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to invest funds on

  - 246 -  

 

deposit in an Investment Account shall be in writing and shall certify that the requested investment is a Permitted Investment which matures at or prior to the time required hereby or is payable on demand. In the case of any Escrow Account or Lock-Box Account (the “Mortgagor Accounts”), the Master Servicer shall act upon the written request of the related Mortgagor or Manager to the extent the Master Servicer is required to do so under the terms of the respective Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan) or related documents, provided that in the absence of appropriate written instructions from the related Mortgagor or Manager meeting the requirements of this Section 3.07, the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to, but will be entitled to, direct the investment of funds in such accounts in Permitted Investments. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of the Trustee or a nominee of the Trustee (in each case for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners). The Trustee (for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners) shall have sole control (except with respect to investment direction, which shall be in the control of the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account, any Whole Loan Custodial Account, any Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Mortgagor Account) or the Special Servicer (with respect to any REO Accounts), as applicable, as an independent contractor to the Trust Fund) over each such investment and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Trustee or its nominee (which shall initially be the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable), together with any document of transfer, if any, necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trustee or its nominee (for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners). Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall have any responsibility or liability with respect to the investment directions of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, any Mortgagor or Manager or any losses resulting therefrom, whether from Permitted Investments or otherwise. The Master Servicer shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to the investment direction of the Special Servicer, any Mortgagor or Manager or any losses resulting therefrom, whether from Permitted Investments or otherwise. The Special Servicer shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to the investment direction of the Master Servicer, any Mortgagor or any property manager or any losses resulting therefrom, whether from Permitted Investments or otherwise. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer in the case of REO Accounts), shall: (x) consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and (y) demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer in the case of REO Accounts) that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the related Investment Account. Amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and the Interest Reserve Account (each, a “Certificate Administrator Account”) shall remain uninvested.

(b)               All income and gain realized from investment of funds deposited in any Investment Account shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer, except with respect to the investment of funds deposited in (i) any Mortgagor Account to the extent required under the Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan) or applicable law to be for the benefit of the related Mortgagor or (ii) any REO Account, which shall be for the benefit of the Special Servicer, and if

  - 247 -  

 

held in the Collection Account, a Whole Loan Custodial Account, any Loss of Value Reserve Fund or an REO Account, shall be subject to withdrawal by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with Section 3.06, Section 3.06A or Section 3.16(b) of this Agreement, as applicable. The Master Servicer (or with respect to any REO Account, the Special Servicer) shall deposit from its own funds into any applicable Investment Account, the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment immediately upon realization of such loss (except with respect to losses incurred as a result of the related Mortgagor or Manager exercising its power under the related Loan Documents to direct such investment in such Mortgagor Account); provided, however, that the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, may reduce the amount of such payment to the extent it forgoes any investment income in such Investment Account otherwise payable to it. The Master Servicer shall also deposit from its own funds in any Mortgagor Account the amount of any loss incurred in respect of Permitted Investments, except to the extent that amounts are invested for the benefit of the Mortgagor under the terms of the Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan) or applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer (in their respective capacities as Master Servicer and Special Servicer, respectively) shall be required to deposit any loss on an investment of funds in an Investment Account if such loss is incurred solely as a result of the insolvency of the federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company that holds such Investment Account, so long as such depository institution or trust company is not the Person or an Affiliate of the Person maintaining such account hereunder and satisfied the qualifications set forth in the definition of Eligible Account both (1) at the time such investment was made and (2) as of the date that is 30 days prior to the insolvency.

(c)               Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Trustee may, and upon the request of Holders of Trust Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interests of any Class shall, take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings. In the event the Trustee takes any such action, the Trust Fund shall pay or reimburse the Trustee for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in connection therewith. In the event that the Trustee does not take any such action, the Master Servicer may, but is not obligated to, take such action at its own cost and expense.

Section 3.08           Maintenance of Insurance Policies and Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage.

(a)               The Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee, as mortgagee of record, shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor to maintain, to the extent required by each Mortgage Loan (other than an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Serviced Companion Loan (except to the extent that the failure to maintain such insurance coverage is an Acceptable Insurance Default), and if the Mortgagor does not so maintain, shall itself maintain (subject to the provisions of this Agreement concerning Nonrecoverable Advances and to the extent the Trustee as mortgagee of record has an insurable interest and to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates), (i) fire and hazard insurance (and windstorm insurance, if applicable) with extended coverage on the related Mortgaged Property in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (a) one hundred percent (100%) of the then “full replacement

cost” of the improvements and equipment (excluding foundations, footings and excavation costs), without deduction for physical depreciation, and (b) the outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Companion Loan(s) or such greater amount as is necessary to prevent any reduction in such policy by reason of the application of co-insurance provisions and to prevent the Trustee thereunder from being deemed to be a co-insurer and provided such policy shall include a “replacement cost” rider, (ii) insurance providing coverage against 18 months (or such longer period or with such extended period endorsement as provided in the related Mortgage or other Loan Document) of rent interruptions and (iii) such other insurance as is required in the related Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Companion Loan; provided that, if the Loan Documents with respect to any Mortgage Loan permit the related Mortgagor to maintain, with the lender’s consent or agreement, any insurance policy that (A) has coverages, deductibles and/or other related provisions other than those specified in the related Loan Documents or (B) is provided by an insurer that does not meet the credit ratings requirements set forth in the related Loan Documents (any such insurance policy, a “Non-Conforming Policy”), the Master Servicer shall not consent or agree to such Non-Conforming Policy unless the Master Servicer has received a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such Non-Conforming Policy. Subject to Section 3.16 of this Agreement, the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard), shall cause to be maintained for each REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) no less insurance coverage than was previously required of the Mortgagor under the related Loan Documents (except to the extent that the failure to maintain such insurance coverage is an Acceptable Insurance Default); provided that to the extent the Loan Documents require the related Mortgagor to maintain insurance with an insurer rated better than as indicated in the definition of “Qualified Insurer”, the Master Servicer may, without a Rating Agency Confirmation or the approval of the Special Servicer, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, permit the related Mortgagor to maintain insurance with an insurer that does not meet the requirements of the Loan Documents so long as the related Mortgagor maintains insurance with an insurer rated at least as indicated in the definition of “Qualified Insurer”. All insurance for an REO Property shall be from a Qualified Insurer, if available from a Qualified Insurer, and if not available from a Qualified Insurer, from an insurance provider that is rated the next highest available rating who is offering such insurance at commercially reasonable rates. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts required to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the terms of the related Loan Documents) shall be deposited into the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05 of this Agreement or the Whole Loan Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.05A of this Agreement, as applicable, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05, Section 3.05A, Section 3.06 or Section 3.06A of this Agreement. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no other additional insurance other than flood insurance or earthquake insurance subject to the conditions set forth below is to be required of any Mortgagor or to be maintained by the Master Servicer other than pursuant to the terms of the related Loan Documents and pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional

insurance. If the related Mortgaged Property (other than an REO Property and other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) is located in a federally designated special flood hazard area, the Master Servicer will use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor to maintain, to the extent required by each Serviced Loan, and if the related Mortgagor does not so maintain, shall itself obtain (subject to the provisions of this Agreement concerning Nonrecoverable Advances) and maintain flood insurance in respect thereof. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Companion Loan(s) and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance required by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and as is available for the related property under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such property is located is participating in such program). If a Mortgaged Property (other than an REO Property) is related to a Serviced Loan pursuant to which earthquake insurance is required to be maintained pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, the Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor to maintain, and if the related Mortgagor does not so maintain will itself obtain (subject to the provisions of this Agreement concerning Nonrecoverable Advances and for so long as such insurance continues to be available at commercially reasonable rates) and maintain earthquake insurance in respect thereof, in the amount required by the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or, if not specified, in-place at origination. If an REO Property (other than an REO Property related to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) (i) is located in a federally designated special flood hazard area or (ii) is related to a Serviced Loan with respect to which earthquake insurance would be appropriate in accordance with the Servicing Standard and such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates, the Special Servicer will obtain (subject to the provisions of this Agreement concerning Nonrecoverable Advances) and maintain flood insurance and/or earthquake insurance in respect thereof providing the same coverage as described in this Section 3.08(a). Out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer in maintaining insurance policies pursuant to this Section 3.08 shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as a Property Advance and shall be reimbursable to the Master Servicer with interest at the Advance Rate. The Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer, with respect to REO Properties) agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and the Serviced Companion Loan Holders, claims under each related insurance policy maintained by it pursuant to this Section 3.08(a) in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy and to take such reasonable steps as are necessary to receive payment or to permit recovery thereunder. All insurance policies required to be maintained by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer hereunder shall name the Trustee or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee, as loss payee, and shall be issued by Qualified Insurers, if available from a Qualified Insurer, and if not available from a Qualified Insurer, from an insurance provider that is rated the next highest available rating who is offering such insurance at commercially reasonable rates. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (A) the Master Servicer shall not be required to maintain any earthquake or environmental insurance policy on any Mortgaged Property and the Special Servicer shall not be required to maintain any earthquake or environmental insurance policy on any REO Property, in each case unless such insurance is required to be maintained under the related Loan Documents and is available at commercially reasonable rates; provided, however, that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any obligation to maintain such earthquake or environmental insurance policy required under the related Loan Documents if the originator of the Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole

  - 250 -  

 

Loan waived compliance with such insurance requirements (and if the applicable Master Servicer does not cause the Mortgagor to maintain or does not itself maintain such earthquake or environmental insurance policy on any Mortgaged Property, the Special Servicer shall have the right, but not the duty, to obtain, at the Trust’s expense, earthquake or environmental insurance on any Mortgaged Property securing a Specially Serviced Loan or an REO Property so long as such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates); (B) with respect to the Master Servicer’s obligation to cause the related Mortgagor to maintain such insurance, the Master Servicer shall have no obligation beyond using its efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause any Mortgagor to maintain the insurance required to be maintained or that the lender is entitled to reasonably require, subject to applicable law, under the related Loan Documents; and (C) in making determinations as to the availability of insurance at commercially reasonable rates or otherwise, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, be entitled to rely, at its own expense, on insurance consultants in making such determination and any such determinations by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, need not be made more frequently than annually but in any event shall be made at the approximate date on which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives notice of the renewal, replacement or cancellation of coverage.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will not be required to maintain, and shall not cause a Mortgagor to be in default with respect to the failure of the related Mortgagor to obtain, all risk casualty insurance which does not contain any carve out for terrorist or similar acts, if, and only if, the Special Servicer has determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard that the failure to maintain such insurance is an Acceptable Insurance Default; provided that, during the period that the Special Servicer is evaluating such insurance hereunder, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer, provided each party is acting in accordance with the Servicing Standard, shall be liable for any loss related to its failure to require the Mortgagor to maintain terrorism insurance and shall not be in default of its obligations hereunder as a result of such failure. The Special Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer of each determination under this paragraph.

(b)               (i) If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer obtains and maintains a blanket insurance policy insuring against fire and hazard losses on all of the Mortgaged Properties (other than REO Properties and other than Mortgaged Properties that secure the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) as to which the related Mortgagor has not maintained insurance required by the related Mortgage Loan or, if applicable, related Serviced Whole Loan (other than any Mortgagor that is required under the related Loan Documents to maintain insurance with an insurer rated better than as indicated in the definition of “Qualified Insurer” that maintains insurance with an insurer rated at least as indicated in the definition of “Qualified Insurer”) or the Special Servicer obtains and maintains a blanket insurance policy insuring against fire and hazard losses on all of the REO Properties (other than an REO Property acquired in respect of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), as required under this Agreement, as the case may be, then the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its respective obligations concerning the maintenance of insurance coverage set forth in Section 3.08(a) of this Agreement. Any such blanket insurance policy shall be maintained with a Qualified Insurer. A blanket insurance policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall, in the event that (i) there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property a policy otherwise complying with the

  - 251 -  

 

provisions of Section 3.08(a) of this Agreement, and (ii) there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such a policy had it been maintained, immediately deposit into the Collection Account or, if applicable, related Whole Loan Custodial Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or, in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with the Servicing Standard. In connection with its activities as Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder, as applicable, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, respectively, agree to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee, the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, claims under any such blanket policy which it maintains in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy and to take such reasonable steps as are necessary to receive payment or permit recovery thereunder.

(ii)                                           If the Master Servicer causes any Mortgaged Property (other than any REO Property and other than any Mortgaged Property that secures an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) or the Special Servicer causes any REO Property (other than an REO Property acquired in respect of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to be covered by a master force placed insurance policy and such policy shall be issued by a Qualified Insurer and provide no less coverage in scope and amount for such Mortgaged Property or REO Property than the insurance required to be maintained pursuant to Section 3.08(a) of this Agreement, then the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its respective obligations to maintain insurance pursuant to Section 3.08(a) of this Agreement. Such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall, in the event that (i) there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy otherwise complying with the provisions of Section 3.08(a), and (ii) there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such a policy had it been maintained, immediately deposit into the Collection Account or, if applicable, related Whole Loan Custodial Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under such policy because of such deductible to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan(s) related thereto, or, in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with the Servicing Standard.

(iii)                                        In either case, if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, causes any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by such “force-placed” insurance policy, the incremental costs of such insurance applicable to such Mortgaged Property or REO Property (i.e., other than any minimum or standby premium payable for such policy whether or not any Mortgaged Property or REO Property is covered thereby) shall be paid as a Property Advance. Any legal fees or other out-of-pocket costs incurred in accordance with the Servicing Standard in connection with any claim under an insurance policy described above (whether by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer) shall be paid by, and reimbursable to, the Master Servicer as a Property Advance.

(c)               The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each obtain and maintain in effect a fidelity bond or similar form of insurance coverage (which may provide blanket coverage) or a combination of fidelity bond and insurance coverage, in such form as is consistent with the Servicing Standard and in such amounts that are consistent with the Servicing Standard, insuring against loss occasioned by fraud, theft or other intentional misconduct of the officers and employees of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if one of its respective Affiliates has such fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. In addition, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each keep in force during the term of this Agreement a policy or policies of insurance covering loss occasioned by the errors and omissions of its officers and employees in connection with its obligations to service the Mortgage Loans and any Serviced Companion Loans hereunder in such form as is consistent with the Servicing Standard and in such amounts as are consistent with the Servicing Standard. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Master Servicer (or its corporate parent) or the Special Servicer (or its corporate parent), as applicable, has: (i) a long term deposit or unsecured debt rating of at least “A-” by Fitch; and (ii) a long term unsecured debt rating or deposit account rating of at least “A-” by S&P, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may self-insure for the fidelity bond and errors and omissions coverage otherwise required above. The Master Servicer shall cause each and every Sub-Servicer it has engaged to maintain or cause to be maintained by an agent or contractor servicing any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan on behalf of such Sub-Servicer, a fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy which satisfy the requirements for the fidelity bond and the errors and omissions policy to be maintained by the Master Servicer to comply with the foregoing. All fidelity bonds and policies of errors and omissions insurance obtained under this Section 3.08(c) shall be issued by a Qualified Insurer.

(d)               Each of the Operating Advisor and Asset Representations Reviewer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement an “errors and omissions” insurance policy with a Qualified Insurer covering losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer’s or employee’s errors or omissions.

Section 3.09           Enforcement of Due-On-Sale and Due-On-Encumbrance Clauses; Assumption Agreements; Defeasance Provisions.

(a)               Upon receipt of any request of a waiver or consent in respect of a due-on-sale or due-on-encumbrance provision under the Loan Documents of a Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall promptly process and analyze such request, including the preparation of written materials in connection with such analysis, and determine in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard whether to waive any right to accelerate payment the lender may have, or grant its consent, under the due-on-sale or due-on-encumbrance provision of such Serviced Loan. If the Master Servicer receives any such request with respect to Performing Serviced Loans, the Master Servicer shall promptly deliver a copy of such request to the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding the forgoing, with respect to any Performing Serviced Loan as to which the Master Servicer and the Specially Servicer mutually agree, the Master Servicer shall process and analyze any such request, including the preparation of written materials in connection with such analysis, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, and provide its written recommendation and analysis to the Special Servicer as to whether or not to waive any right to accelerate payment the lender may

  - 253 -  

 

have, or grant its consent, under the due-on-sale or due-on-encumbrance provision of such Serviced Loan (with any such recommended course of action to be subject to the Special Servicer’s consent).

Both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer (as applicable in accordance with the first paragraph of this Section 3.09(a)) each in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard and each on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, enforce the restrictions contained in the related Loan Documents on transfers or further encumbrances of the related Mortgaged Property and on transfers or further encumbrances of interests in the related Mortgagor, unless following receipt of a request for a waiver or consent in respect of a due-on-sale or due-on-encumbrance provision the Master Servicer (to the extent that it is processing such request pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 3.09(a), with the written consent of the Special Servicer, which consent shall be deemed given if not denied within 15 Business Days (or, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, such longer period as required by the related Co-Lender Agreement, but in no event less than 5 Business Days after the time period set forth in such Co-Lender Agreement for review by any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder or its Companion Loan Holder Representative) after the Special Servicer’s receipt (unless earlier objected to) of the written recommendation and analysis of the Master Servicer for such action and any additional information reasonably available to the Master Servicer that the Special Servicer may reasonably request for the analysis of such request, which recommendation and information may be delivered in an electronic format reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has determined, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that the waiver of such restrictions or granting of consent would be in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Promptly after the Master Servicer (with the written consent of the Special Servicer to the extent required pursuant to this Section 3.09(a)) or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has made any determination to grant a waiver in respect of a due-on-sale or due-on-encumbrance provision, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall: (1) deliver to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, each other party to this Agreement and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the basis for such determination; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such Officer’s Certificate shall be required to be delivered if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, is granting consent to an assumption pursuant to this Section 3.09(a) in accordance with the terms of the related Loan Documents and there is no material waiver of any conditions or any other provisions of the related Loan Documents with respect thereto; and (2) close the related transaction, subject to the consent of the Special Servicer obtained as described above (if the Master Servicer is processing such request) and to the consent rights of any applicable Directing Holder and/or the consultation rights of any applicable Consulting Party (to the extent any such Directing Holder or Consulting Party has consent or consultation rights, as applicable, pursuant to any related Co-Lender Agreement or pursuant to Section 3.29, Section 6.09, Section 3.24 or this Section 3.09(a), as applicable), and subject to Sections 3.09(b), 3.21, 3.24, 3.25 and Section 3.28; provided, however, that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall enter into any such agreement to the extent that any terms thereof would result in (i) the imposition of a tax on a Trust REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax

purposes at any time that any Trust Certificate is outstanding or (ii) create any lien on a Mortgaged Property that is senior to, or on parity with, the lien of the related Mortgage.

With respect to all Serviced Mortgage Loans and each Serviced Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall, prior to consenting to a proposed action of the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.09 that constitutes a Major Decision, and prior to itself taking such an action, obtain the written consent of any applicable Directing Holder, which consent shall be deemed given ten (10) Business Days after receipt (unless earlier objected to) by such related Directing Holder of the Major Decision Reporting Package for such action, which recommendation and information may be delivered in an electronic format reasonably acceptable to the related Directing Holder and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable.

In addition, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer may waive the rights of the lender or grant its consent under any “due-on-encumbrance” provision unless (1) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable (in each case, if it is the party processing the related request pursuant to this Section 3.09(a)), shall have received a prior written Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such action, or (2) the affected Serviced Mortgage Loan (including a Serviced Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan) (A) represents less than 2% of the aggregate principal balance of all of the Mortgage Loans in the Trust Fund, (B) has a principal balance that is equal to or less than $35,000,000, (C) has a Loan-to-Value Ratio equal to or less than 85% (including any existing and proposed debt), (D) has a Debt Service Coverage Ratio equal to or greater than 1.20x (in each case, determined based upon the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balance of the Serviced Mortgage Loan, any related Serviced Companion Loan (if applicable) and the principal amount of the proposed additional lien) and (E) is not one of the 10 largest Mortgage Loans (considering any Cross-Collateralized Group as a single Mortgage Loan) in the Mortgage Pool based on principal balance or (3) the affected Serviced Mortgage Loan (including a Serviced Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan) has a principal balance less than $10,000,000; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any provision contained in the related Loan Documents to the contrary, no Rating Agency Confirmation shall be required in connection with such waiver or grant of consent under any “due-on-encumbrance” provision if the affected Serviced Mortgage Loan satisfies the conditions set forth in clause (2) or clause (3) above of this sentence.

Further, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer may waive the rights of the lender or grant its consent under any “due-on-sale” provision unless (1) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable (in each case, if it is the party processing the related request pursuant to this Section 3.09(a)), shall have received a prior written Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such action, or (2) the affected Serviced Mortgage Loan (including a Serviced Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan) (A) represents less than 5% of the principal balance of all of the Mortgage Loans in the Trust Fund, (B) has a principal balance that is equal to or less than $35,000,000 and (C) is not one of the 10 largest Mortgage Loans (considering any Cross-Collateralized Group as a single Mortgage Loan) in the Mortgage Pool based on principal balance or (3) the affected Serviced Mortgage Loan (including a Serviced Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan) has a principal balance less than $10,000,000; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any provision contained in the related Loan Documents to the contrary, no Rating Agency Confirmation shall be required in connection with such waiver or grant of consent under any “due-on-sale” provision if the affected Serviced Mortgage Loan

satisfies the conditions set forth in clause (2) or clause (3) above of this sentence. For the purposes of this Agreement, due-on-sale provisions shall include, without limitation, sales or transfers of Mortgaged Properties, in full or in part, or the sale, transfer, pledge or hypothecation of direct or indirect interests in any Mortgagor or its owner, in each case to the extent not permitted under the related Loan Documents, and due-on-encumbrance provisions shall include, without limitation, any mezzanine/subordinate financing of any Mortgagor or any Mortgaged Property or any sale or transfer of preferred equity in any Mortgagor or its owners, in each case to the extent not permitted under the related Loan Documents.

The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable (in each case, if it is the party processing the related request pursuant to this Section 3.09(a)), shall notify in writing the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), the Operating Advisor, each Risk Retention Consultation Party (other than with respect to any related Excluded RRCP Mortgage Loan), the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider (for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement) and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, each related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, of any assumption or substitution agreement executed pursuant to this Section 3.09(a) and shall forward thereto a copy of such agreement, and shall also deliver to the Certificate Administrator (or a Custodian appointed by it) an original of the recorded agreement relating to such assumption or substitution within 15 Business Days following the execution and receipt thereof by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable.

In connection with any request for a Rating Agency Confirmation from a Rating Agency pursuant to this Section 3.09(a), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable (in each case, if it is the party processing the related request pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 3.09(a)), shall deliver a Review Package to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 12.13 of this Agreement.

Further, subject to the terms of the related Loan Documents and applicable law, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable (in each case, if it is the party processing the related request pursuant to this Section 3.09(a)), shall use reasonable efforts to cause all costs in connection with any assumption or encumbrance, including any arising from seeking a Rating Agency Confirmation, to be paid by the related Mortgagor. To the extent not collected from the related Mortgagor after the use of such efforts, any rating agency charges in connection with the foregoing shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Property Advance (or as an Additional Trust Fund Expense if such Property Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance).

To the extent not prohibited by the applicable Loan Documents and applicable law, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, may charge the related Mortgagor a fee in connection with any enforcement or waiver contemplated in this subsection (a); provided that any such fee shall be applied as if it were a Modification Fee and/or Assumption Fee, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b)               Nothing in this Section 3.09 shall constitute a waiver of the Trustee’s right, as the mortgagee of record, to receive notice of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan, any sale or

  - 256 -  

 

other transfer of the related Mortgaged Property or the creation of any lien or other encumbrance with respect to such Mortgaged Property.

(c)               In connection with the taking of, or the failure to take, any action pursuant to this Section 3.09, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall agree to modify, waive or amend, and no assumption or substitution agreement entered into pursuant to Section 3.09(a) of this Agreement shall contain any terms that are different from, any term of any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan or the related Note, other than pursuant to Section 3.24 of this Agreement.

(d)               With respect to any Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan which permits release of Mortgaged Properties through defeasance, and to the extent consistent with the terms of the related Loan Documents:

(i)                                             Subject to the consent rights of the Special Servicer and the Directing Holder and the process set forth in Sections 3.24 and 6.09 with respect to Major Decisions and Special Servicer Decisions (provided that such consent rights of the Special Servicer and/or the Directing Holder shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.09(e)), the Master Servicer shall process all defeasances of Serviced Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans in accordance with the terms of the related Loan Documents, and shall be entitled to any defeasance fees paid relating thereto (provided that for the avoidance of doubt, any such defeasance fee shall not include the Special Servicer’s portion of any Modification Fees or waiver fees in connection with a defeasance to which the Special Servicer is entitled under this Agreement).

(ii)                                           In the event such Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan requires that the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee purchase the required “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or any other securities that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), the Master Servicer, an accommodation Mortgagor pursuant to clause (v) below or the Mortgagor shall, at the Mortgagor’s expense (to the extent consistent with the related Loan Documents), purchase or cause the purchase of such obligations in accordance with the terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and deliver to the Master Servicer, in the case of the Mortgagor, or in the case of the Master Servicer, hold the same on behalf of the Trust Fund and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder; provided that, subject to the related Loan Documents, the Master Servicer shall not accept the amounts paid by the related Mortgagor to effect defeasance until acceptable “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or any other securities that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) have been identified, in each case which are acceptable as defeasance collateral under the then most recently published current guidelines of the Rating Agencies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to each of the Mortgage Loans identified on Exhibit Q to this Agreement (each, a “Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations Mortgage Loan” and, collectively, the “Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations Mortgage Loans”), the related Mortgage Loan Seller or originator has transferred to a third party or has retained the right to establish or designate the successor borrower and/or to purchase or cause to be purchased the related defeasance

(iii)                                       The Master Servicer shall require, to the extent the related Loan Documents grant the mortgagee discretion to so require, delivery of an Opinion of Counsel (which shall be an expense of the related Mortgagor to the extent consistent with the related Loan Documents) to the effect that the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners has a first priority security interest in the defeasance deposit and the “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or any other securities that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), and the assignment thereof is valid and enforceable; such opinion, together with any other certificates or documents to be required in connection with such defeasance shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Master Servicer.

(iv)                                      The Master Servicer shall obtain, to the extent the related Loan Documents grant the mortgagee discretion to so obtain, a certificate (which shall be an expense of the related Mortgagor to the extent consistent with the related Loan Documents) from an Independent certified public accountant certifying that the “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or any

  - 258 -  

 

other securities that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), comply with the requirements of the related Loan Agreement or Mortgage.

(v)                                         To the extent consistent with the related Loan Documents, prior to permitting release of any Mortgaged Properties through defeasance, the Master Servicer shall (at the Mortgagor’s expense) obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be required to obtain such Rating Agency Confirmation from any Rating Agency to the extent that the Master Servicer has delivered a defeasance certificate to such Rating Agency substantially in the form of Exhibit DD to this Agreement for any Mortgage Loan that, at the time of such defeasance, is (x) not one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans by Stated Principal Balance, (y) a Mortgage Loan with a Stated Principal Balance equal to or less than $35,000,000 and (z) a Mortgage Loan that represents less than 5% of the Stated Principal Balance of all Mortgage Loans.

(vi)                                       If the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan permits the related Mortgagor or the lender or its designee to cause an accommodation Mortgagor to assume such defeased obligations, the Master Servicer shall, or shall cause the Mortgagor to, establish at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense (and shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor to consent to such assumption) a special purpose bankruptcy-remote entity to assume such obligations, as to which the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator has received a Rating Agency Confirmation (if such confirmation is required pursuant to the then most recently published guidelines of the Rating Agencies).

(vii)                                   To the extent consistent with the related Loan Documents, the Master Servicer shall require the related Mortgagor to pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the defeasance of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan.

(viii)                                 In no event shall the Master Servicer have liability to any party hereto or beneficiary hereof for obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation (or conditioning approval of defeasance on the delivery of a Rating Agency Confirmation) or for imposing conditions to approval of a defeasance on the satisfaction of conditions that are consistent with the Servicing Standard but are not required under Rating Agency guidelines (provided that this shall not protect the Master Servicer from any liability that may be imposed as a result of the violation of applicable law or the Loan Documents).

(ix)                                        The Master Servicer may accept as defeasance collateral any “government security,” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation’s Section 1.860G-(2)(a)(8)(ii), notwithstanding any more restrictive requirements in the Loan Documents; provided, that the Master Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel that acceptance of such defeasance collateral will not endanger the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in

(e)               Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, without any other approval or consent of the Special Servicer or the Directing Holder, the Master Servicer (for Performing Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (for Specially Serviced Loans) may grant and process a Mortgagor’s request for consent (i) to subject the related Mortgaged Property to an immaterial easement, right of way or similar agreement for utilities, access, parking, public improvements or another purpose (and may consent to subordination of the related Serviced Loan to such easement, right of way or similar agreement) and (ii) to the release, substitution or addition of collateral securing any Serviced Loan in connection with a defeasance of such collateral (provided that the proposed defeasance collateral is of a type permitted under the related Loan Documents and provided further that, with respect to the Master Servicer, such defeasance does not require any modification, waiver, consent or amendment of such documents as described in clauses (e)(i) and (ii) of the definition of “Special Servicer Decision”); provided that in each case, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, (A) shall have determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such action will not materially and adversely affect the operation or value of such Mortgaged Property or the Trust Fund’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, (B) shall have determined that such action will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Trust Certificates are outstanding and (C) in the case of any action described in clause (ii) above, shall have complied with the provisions of Section 3.09(d) (other than the requirement to obtain the consent of the Special Servicer and/or the Directing Holder as contemplated by Section 3.09(d)(i)). The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may rely on an Opinion of Counsel in making any such determination.

Section 3.10           Appraisal Reductions; Calculation and Allocation of Collateral Deficiency Amounts; Realization Upon Defaulted Loans.

(a)               Promptly upon knowledge of the occurrence of an Appraisal Reduction Event with respect to a Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to (i) obtain an updated Appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property, the costs of which shall be advanced by, and reimbursable to, the Master Servicer as a Property Advance (or shall be an expense of the Trust Fund and paid by the Master Servicer out of the Collection Account if such Property Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance) or (ii) conduct an internal valuation if the related Serviced Mortgage Loan (considering any Cross-Collateralized Group as a single Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan has an outstanding principal balance of less than $2,000,000 (provided that the Special Servicer may, in its sole discretion in accordance with the Servicing Standard, obtain an updated Appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property as contemplated by the preceding clause (i)); provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be required to obtain an updated Appraisal or conduct an internal valuation of any Mortgaged Property with respect to which there exists an Appraisal which is less than nine (9) months old unless the Special Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such previously obtained Appraisal is materially inaccurate. With respect to any Serviced Loan for which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred and still exists, the Special Servicer shall obtain annual letter updates to any updated Appraisal. Any Appraisal prepared in order to determine the Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan shall be delivered by the Special Servicer, upon request, to each related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

  - 260 -  

 

As of the first Determination Date following a Serviced Trust Loan becoming an AB Modified Loan, the Special Servicer shall calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent Appraisal obtained (or, if applicable, internal valuation performed) by the Special Servicer with respect to such Serviced Trust Loan, and all other information relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount determination. The Master Servicer shall provide (via electronic delivery) the Special Servicer with information in its possession that is reasonably required to calculate or recalculate any Collateral Deficiency Amount pursuant to the definition thereof using reasonable efforts to deliver such information within four (4) Business Days of the Special Servicer’s reasonable written request. Upon obtaining actual knowledge or receipt of notice by the Special Servicer that an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, the Special Servicer shall (i) promptly request from the related Outside Servicer, Outside Special Servicer and Outside Trustee the most recent appraisal with respect to such AB Modified Loan, in addition to all other information reasonably required by the Special Servicer to calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, and (ii) as of the first Determination Date following receipt by the Special Servicer of the appraisal and any other information set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i) that the Special Servicer reasonably expects to receive (and does receive within a reasonable period of time) and reasonably believes is necessary to perform such calculation, calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent appraisal obtained by the Special Servicer from the Outside Servicer, Outside Special Servicer or Outside Trustee, as the case may be, with respect to such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, and all other information relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount determination. In connection with its calculation of a Collateral Deficiency Amount with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan that has become an AB Modified Loan, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any appraisal or other information received from the related Outside Servicer, Outside Special Servicer or Outside Trustee. The Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator of any Collateral Deficiency Amount calculated by the Special Servicer with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan that has become an AB Modified Loan. The Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any Collateral Deficiency Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan. Upon any other party to this Agreement obtaining knowledge or receipt of notice that an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, such party shall promptly notify the Special Servicer thereof. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Master Servicer shall calculate or verify any Collateral Deficiency Amount.

The Certificate Balance of each Class of applicable Principal Balance Certificates shall be notionally reduced (for purposes of determining the identity of the Non-Reduced Certificates and the Controlling Class, as well as the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event (exclusive of a Loan-Specific Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event), and, to the extent expressly set forth herein, for purposes of allocating and/or exercising Voting Rights or Pooled Voting Rights in connection with certain circumstances involving the termination of certain parties hereto) as of any date of determination to the extent of the Appraisal Reduction Amount(s) allocated to such Class on the preceding Distribution Date. An amount equal to the Vertically Retained Percentage of the aggregate Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to, or in respect of, the Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be applied to notionally reduce (to not less than zero) the Combined VRR

  - 261 -  

 

Interest Balance of the Combined VRR Interest (which amount shall, in turn, be applied to notionally reduce (to not less than zero) the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance of the Uncertificated VRR Interest, pro rata, based on the respective then-outstanding amounts of such Certificate Balance and Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance). The Non-Vertically Retained Percentage of the aggregate Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to, or in respect of, the Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be applied to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of the following Classes of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates in the following order of priority: first, to the Class J-RR Certificates; second, to the Class G-RR Certificates; third, to the Class F Certificates; fourth, to the Class E Certificates; fifth, to the Class D Certificates; sixth, to the Class C Certificates; seventh, to the Class B Certificates; eighth, to the Class A-S Certificates; and finally, pro rata to the (i) Class A-1 Certificates, (ii) Class A-2 Certificates and (ii) Class A-3 Certificates, based on their respective Certificate Balances (provided in each case that no Certificate Balance in respect of any such Class may be notionally reduced below zero). In addition, as of any date of determination for purposes of determining the Controlling Class or the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event (exclusive of a Loan-Specific Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event), and after taking into account the allocations contemplated by the prior sentence, the Non-Vertically Retained Percentage of any Collateral Deficiency Amounts shall be applied to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of each Class of the Control Eligible Certificates in the following order of priority (in each case after taking into account any Appraisal Reduction Amounts allocated thereto): first, to the Class J-RR Certificates; second, to the Class G-RR Certificates; and third, to the Class F Certificates (provided in each case that no Certificate Balance in respect of any such Class may be notionally reduced below zero). For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining the Controlling Class or the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, any Class of Control Eligible Certificates shall be allocated the Non-Vertically Retained Percentage of both applicable Appraisal Reduction Amounts and applicable Collateral Deficiency Amounts, in accordance with the preceding two sentences.

For purposes of determining the identity of the related Non Reduced Loan-Specific Certificates and Loan-Specific Controlling Class, as well as the occurrence of a related Loan-Specific Control Termination Event or Loan-Specific Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event (and, to the extent expressly set forth herein, for purposes of allocating and/or exercising related Voting Rights or Loan-Specific Voting Rights in connection with certain circumstances involving the termination of certain parties hereto), any Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan shall be allocated between any related Loan-Specific VRR Interest and the related Loan-Specific Certificates that are not part of any such related Loan-Specific VRR Interest on a pro rata basis by principal balance, with any portion of such Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to the related Loan-Specific Certificates that are not part of a related Loan-Specific VRR Interest (which may be all of such Appraisal Reduction Amount if there is no related Loan-Specific VRR Interest) being allocated to the respective Classes of related Loan Specific Certificates that are not part of a related Loan-Specific VRR Interest in reverse sequential order of payment priority, in the case of each Class of related Loan-Specific Certificates and each related Uncertificated Interest to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance or Uncertificated Interest Balance, as applicable, thereof until the Certificate Balance or Uncertificated Interest Balance, as applicable, thereof is reduced to zero. In addition, as of any date of determination, for purposes of determining the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class or the occurrence of a related

  - 262 -  

 

Loan-Specific Control Termination Event or Loan-Specific Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, and after taking into account the allocations contemplated by the prior sentence, any Collateral Deficiency Amounts in respect of or allocated to a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan (or a proportionate share thereof by principal balance if there a related Loan-Specific VRR Interest) shall be allocated to each Class of related Loan-Specific Control Eligible Certificates (if more than one, in reverse sequential order of payment priority) to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance thereof until the related Certificate Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class or the occurrence of a related Loan-Specific Control Termination Event or Loan-Specific Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, a Class of the Loan-Specific Control Eligible Certificates shall be allocated both applicable Appraisal Reduction Amounts and applicable Collateral Deficiency Amounts in respect of or allocated to the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan (or a proportionate share thereof by principal balance if there a related Loan-Specific VRR Interest), as described in this paragraph.

With respect to any Appraisal Reduction Amount calculated for the purposes of determining the Non-Reduced Certificates and the Non-Reduced Loan-Specific Certificates or, to the extent expressly set forth herein, for the purposes of allocating and/or exercising Voting Rights, Pooled Voting Rights or Loan-Specific Voting Rights in connection with certain circumstances involving the termination of certain parties hereto, and with respect to any Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount calculated for purposes of determining the Controlling Class or a Loan-Specific Controlling Class, or the occurrence of a Control Termination Event, a Loan-Specific Control Termination Event, an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event or a Loan-Specific Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property shall be determined on an “as-is” basis.

The Special Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator of the determination and any redetermination of (i) any Appraisal Reduction Amount, (ii) any Collateral Deficiency Amount, and (iii) any resulting Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount by providing such information in the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Template or in a format mutually agreeable to both the Special Servicer and the recipient, and the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice of the determination of any such Appraisal Reduction Amount, Collateral Deficiency Amount and/or Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount, as applicable, including such CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Template, on the Certificate Administrator’s Website.

Any Appraisal Reduction Amounts with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan shall be allocated, first, to any related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan(s) (up to the outstanding principal balance(s) thereof), and then, to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), on a pro rata and pari passu basis in accordance with the respective outstanding principal balances of such related Serviced Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if so provided in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the holder of a Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan may be permitted to post cash or a letter of credit to offset all or some portion of an Appraisal Reduction Amount.

- 263 -

The Holders of the majority (by Certificate Balance) of an Appraised-Out Class shall have the right, at their sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order a second Appraisal of the Mortgaged Property securing any Serviced Loan (or, in the case of a Class of Loan-Specific Control Eligible Class that is an Appraised-Out Class, the related Serviced Whole Loan) as to which there exists an Appraisal Reduction Amount or a Collateral Deficiency Amount (such Holders, the “Requesting Holders”). The Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such Appraisal to be (i) delivered within 30 days from receipt of the Requesting Holders’ written request and (ii) prepared on an “as-is” basis by an Appraiser in accordance with MAI standards. Upon receipt of such second Appraisal, the Special Servicer shall determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, whether, based on its assessment of such second Appraisal, any recalculation of the applicable Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount is warranted and, if so warranted, the Special Servicer shall recalculate such Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, based upon such second Appraisal and receipt of information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer from the Master Servicer and reasonably required to calculate or recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable. The Special Servicer shall promptly deliver notice to the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer of any such determination and recalculation of Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, and the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. If required by any such recalculation, the applicable Appraised-Out Class shall be reinstated as the Controlling Class or the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class (if and as applicable) and each affected Class of Principal Balance Certificates and Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates and each affected Uncertificated Interest will, if applicable, have its related Certificate Balance or Uncertificated Interest Balance, as applicable, notionally restored to the extent required by such recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable.

Any Appraised-Out Class as to which one or more Holders are Requesting Holders challenging the Special Servicer’s Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount determination may not exercise any direction, control, consent and/or similar rights of the Controlling Class or the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class, as applicable, until such time, if any, as such Class is reinstated as the Controlling Class or the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class, as applicable, and no Control Termination Event exists, in the case of the Controlling Class, or no applicable Control Appraisal Period in respect of the related Serviced Whole Loan or related Loan-Specific Control Termination Event exists, in the case of a Loan-Specific Controlling Class, and the rights of the Controlling Class or the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class shall be exercised by the most subordinate Class of Control Eligible Certificates or applicable Loan-Specific Control Eligible Certificates, as applicable, that is not an Appraised-Out Class, if any, during such period.

Appraisals that are to be obtained by the Special Servicer at the request of, Holders of an Appraised-Out Class shall be in addition to any Appraisals that the Special Servicer may otherwise be required to obtain in accordance with the Servicing Standard or this Agreement without regard to any appraisal requests made by any Holder of an Appraised-Out Class.

(b)               In connection with any foreclosure, enforcement of the Loan Documents or other acquisition, the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 3.20 of this Agreement shall pay

- 264 -

the out-of-pocket costs and expenses in any such proceedings as a Property Advance unless the Master Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that such Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance (in which case such costs shall be an expense of the Trust Fund and paid by the Master Servicer out of the Collection Account). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of Advances (with interest at the Advance Rate) made pursuant to the preceding sentence to the extent permitted by Section 3.06(a)(ii) of this Agreement.

Subject to Section 3.21 of this Agreement, if the Special Servicer elects to proceed with a non-judicial foreclosure in accordance with the laws of the state where the Mortgaged Property is located, the Special Servicer shall not be required to pursue a deficiency judgment against the related Mortgagor or any other liable party if the laws of the state do not permit such a deficiency judgment after a non-judicial foreclosure or if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that the likely recovery if a deficiency judgment is obtained will not be sufficient to warrant the cost, time, expense and/or exposure of pursuing the deficiency judgment and such determination is evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, any applicable Directing Holder and any applicable Consulting Party.

In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property (other than any Mortgaged Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) is acquired in foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the Trustee, to a co-trustee or to its nominee (which shall not include the Master Servicer but may be a single member limited liability company owned by the Trust and managed by the Special Servicer) or a separate trustee or co-trustee on behalf of the Trustee as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests and the Loan REMIC Regular Interest on behalf of the Holders of the Trust Certificates, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, and the related Serviced Companion Loan Holders. Notwithstanding any such acquisition of title and cancellation of the related Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Serviced Mortgage Loan shall (except for purposes of Section 9.01) be considered to be an REO Mortgage Loan held in the Trust Fund until such time as the related REO Property shall be sold by the Trust Fund and shall be reduced only by collections net of expenses.

(c)               Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall not acquire for the benefit of the Trust Fund any personal property pursuant to this Section 3.10 unless either:

(i)                    such personal property is (in the good faith judgment of the Special Servicer) incident to real property (within the meaning of Code Section 856(e)(1)) so acquired by the Special Servicer for the benefit of the Trust Fund; or

(ii)                 the Special Servicer shall have requested and received an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the Trust Fund) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Trust Fund will not cause the imposition of a tax on a Trust REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Trust Certificate is outstanding.

- 265 -

(d)               Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, neither the Special Servicer nor the Master Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trust Fund or, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, obtain title to any direct or indirect partnership or membership interest or other equity interest in any Mortgagor pledged pursuant to any pledge agreement, unless the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall have requested and received an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the Trust Fund) to the effect that the holding of such partnership or membership interest or other equity interest by the Trust Fund will not cause the imposition of a tax on a Trust REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Trust Certificate is outstanding.

(e)               Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall not, on behalf of the Trust Fund or, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holders, obtain title to a Mortgaged Property as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, obtain title to any direct or indirect partnership or membership interest in any Mortgagor pledged pursuant to a pledge agreement and thereby be the beneficial owner of a Mortgaged Property, and shall not otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to, any Mortgaged Property if, as a result of any such action, the Custodian, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust Fund, the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner or, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holders, would be considered to hold title to, or be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Special Servicer has previously determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard, based on an updated environmental assessment report prepared by an Independent Person who regularly conducts environmental audits, that:

(i)                    such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, after consultation with an environmental consultant, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder (as a collective whole) to take such actions as are necessary to bring such Mortgaged Property in compliance therewith; and

(ii)                 there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any Hazardous Materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any currently effective federal, state or local law or regulation, or that, if any such Hazardous Materials are present for which such action could be required, after consultation with an environmental consultant, it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if the Trust Fund and, if applicable, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender (and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of any related Subordinate Companion Loan(s))) to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property as could be required by such law or regulation.

- 266 -

In the event that the environmental assessment first obtained by the Special Servicer with respect to a Mortgaged Property indicates that such Mortgaged Property may not be in compliance with applicable environmental laws or that Hazardous Materials may be present but does not definitively establish such fact, the Special Servicer shall cause such further environmental tests to be conducted by an Independent Person who regularly conducts such tests as the Special Servicer shall deem prudent to protect the interests of Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder. Any such tests shall be deemed part of the environmental assessment obtained by the Special Servicer for purposes of this Section 3.10.

In the event that the Special Servicer seeks to obtain title to a Mortgaged Property on behalf of the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, the Special Servicer may, in its discretion, establish a single member limited liability company with the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder as the sole owner to hold title to such Mortgaged Property.

(f)                The environmental assessment contemplated by Section 3.10(e) of this Agreement shall be prepared within three months of the determination that such assessment is required by any Independent Person who regularly conducts environmental audits for purchasers of commercial property where the Mortgaged Property is located, as determined by the Special Servicer in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard and, if applicable, any secured creditor impaired property policy issued on or prior to the Closing Date with respect to any Trust Loan (including that the environmental assessment identify any potential pollution conditions (as defined in the environmental insurance policy) with respect to the related Mortgaged Property). The Master Servicer shall advance the cost of preparation of such environmental assessments unless the Master Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance (in which case such costs shall be an expense of the Trust Fund and paid by the Master Servicer out of the Collection Account). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of Advances (with interest at the Advance Rate) made pursuant to the preceding sentence in the manner set forth in Section 3.06 of this Agreement. Copies of any environmental assessment prepared pursuant to Section 3.10(e) of this Agreement shall be provided to the Holder of any Principal Balance Certificates, the applicable Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates (if the subject Mortgaged Property relates to a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder upon written request to the Special Servicer.

(g)               If the Special Servicer determines pursuant to Section 3.10(e)(i) of this Agreement that a Mortgaged Property is not in compliance with applicable environmental laws, but that it is in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s), as a collective whole as if the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender (and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of any related Subordinate Companion Loan(s)), to take such actions as are necessary to bring such Mortgaged Property in compliance therewith, or if the Special Servicer determines pursuant to Section 3.10(e)(ii) of this Agreement that the circumstances referred to therein relating to Hazardous Materials are present, but that it is in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s), as a collective whole as if the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s)

From time to time upon request of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer and delivery to the Certificate Administrator of a Request for Release, the Certificate Administrator (or a Custodian appointed by it) shall promptly release the Mortgage File (or any portion thereof) designated in such Request for Release to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable.

Each such certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required, and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage or other security agreement, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s sale.

If from time to time, pursuant to the terms of the Co-Lender Agreement and the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, and as appropriate for enforcing the terms of, or otherwise properly servicing, such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Outside Servicer, the related Outside Special Servicer or other similar party requests delivery to it of the original Note for such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, then such party shall deliver a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto to the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Administrator shall release (or cause any Custodian appointed by it to release) such original Note to the requesting party or its designee.

than Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) both (x) due with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, and (y) in the case of expense items, that arose within the last 12 months, have been paid. The Master Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to, and to the extent provided for in Sections 3.06(a)(iii), Section 3.06(A) and Section 3.07(b), to withdraw from the Collection Account, the Whole Loan Custodial Accounts and the Loss of Value Reserve Fund and to receive from any Mortgagor Accounts (to the extent not payable to the related Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or applicable law) any interest or other income earned on deposits therein.

The Special Servicer shall not waive any review fee due to the Master Servicer without the Master Servicer’s consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer’s right to the additional servicing compensation described in this paragraph with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan shall be subject to the related Co-Lender Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Excess Modification Fee, Assumption Fee, Consent Fee or other fee with respect to a Performing Serviced Loan that is required to be split between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in its sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge its respective percentage interest in any such fee; provided, however (x) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have the right to reduce or elect not to charge the percentage interest of any fee due to the other and (y) to the extent either of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge its respective percentage interest in any fee, the party that reduced or elected not to charge such fee shall not have any right to share in any portion of the other party’s fee. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, decides not to charge any fee, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall still be entitled to charge the portion of the related fee the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, had charged a fee and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable. The foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall only apply to Performing Serviced Loans and, subject to the other terms of this Agreement, shall not prohibit any waiver or reduction by the Special Servicer of any fee payable by the Mortgagor with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan.

Further, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the preceding paragraph do not relate to, and shall not be construed to relate to, Penalty Charges (as to which the related rights and obligations of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are set forth in Section 3.03(a) and Section 3.14 of this Agreement).

For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Excess Modification Fee, Assumption Fee, Consent Fee or other fee with respect to a Performing Serviced Loan that is required to be split between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in its sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge its respective percentage interest in any such fee; provided, however (x) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have the right to reduce or elect not to charge the percentage interest of any fee due to the other and (y) to the extent either of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge its respective percentage interest in any fee, the party that reduced or elected not to charge such fee shall not have any right to share in any portion of the other party’s fee. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable,

- 274 -

decides not to charge any fee, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall still be entitled to charge the portion of the related fee the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, had charged a fee and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable. The foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall only apply to Performing Serviced Loans and, subject to the other terms of this Agreement, shall not prohibit any waiver or reduction by the Special Servicer of any fee payable by the Mortgagor with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan.

Further, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the preceding paragraph do not relate to, and shall not be construed to relate to, Penalty Charges (as to which the related rights and obligations of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are set forth in Section 3.03(a) and Section 3.14 of this Agreement).

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Special Servicer shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder.

The Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of a Workout Fee with respect to each Corrected Loan at the Workout Fee Rate on such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan for so long as it remains a Corrected Loan. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Workout Fee with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan. The Workout Fee with respect to any Corrected Loan will cease to be payable if such loan again becomes a Specially Serviced Loan; provided that a new Workout Fee will become payable if and when such Specially Serviced Loan again becomes a Corrected Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause) or resigns: (1) it shall retain the right to receive any and all Workout Fees payable in respect of Mortgage Loans or Serviced Whole Loans that became Corrected Loans prior to the time of that termination or resignation, except the Workout Fees will no longer be payable if any such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan subsequently becomes a Specially Serviced Loan; and (2) it will receive any Workout Fees payable in respect of any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that was, at the time of that termination or resignation, a Specially Serviced Loan for which the resigning or terminated Special Servicer had cured the event of default through a modification, restructuring or workout negotiated by the Special Servicer and evidenced by a signed writing, but which had not as of the time the Special Servicer resigned or was terminated become a Corrected Loan solely because the Mortgagor had not had sufficient time to make three consecutive full and timely Monthly Payments as described in clause (w) of the definition of “Specially Serviced Loan” and which thereafter becomes a Corrected Loan as a result of the Mortgagor making such three consecutive full and timely Monthly Payments as described in clause (w) of the definition of “Specially Serviced Loan”, except the Workout Fees will no longer be payable if any such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan subsequently becomes a Specially Serviced Loan. In either case, the successor special servicer will not be entitled to any portion of such Workout Fees. The Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of a Liquidation Fee (other than with respect to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) payable out of the Liquidation Proceeds prior to the deposit of the Net Liquidation Proceeds in the Collection Account or the Whole Loan Custodial Account, as applicable. However, no Liquidation Fee will be payable with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan or in connection with, or out of, Liquidation Proceeds as set forth in the final two provisos of the definition of “Liquidation Fee” herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the

- 275 -

contrary, the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to receive both a Liquidation Fee and a Workout Fee with respect to any specific collections or proceeds on any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. For purposes of the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.12(c), a termination and removal of the Special Servicer under Section 6.08 of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a termination without cause.

If at any time a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to collect the amount of any Special Servicing Fee, Liquidation Fee and/or Workout Fee from the related Mortgagor pursuant to the related Loan Documents, including exercising all remedies available under such Loan Documents that would be in accordance with the Servicing Standard, specifically taking into account the costs or likelihood of success of any such collection efforts and any applicable Realized Loss(es) that would be incurred by Trust Certificateholders and/or the Uncertificated Interest Owners in connection therewith as opposed to the Realized Loss(es) that would be incurred as a result of not collecting such amounts from the related Mortgagor.

The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Liquidation Fee with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan or any Outside Serviced Companion Loan. In addition, the Special Servicer will not be entitled to retain any portion of Excess Interest paid on any Mortgage Loan.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, in no event shall Special Servicing Compensation with respect to the related Mortgage Loan (including an REO Mortgage Loan) be payable out of payments and other collections with respect to the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), and in no event shall Special Servicing Compensation with respect to the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) (including an REO Companion Loan) be payable out of payments and other collections with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Pool. In addition, with respect to any Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, unless otherwise provided in the related Co-Lender Agreement, in no event shall Special Servicing Compensation with respect to such Companion Loan (including an REO Companion Loan) be payable out of payments and other collections with respect to any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Pool. This paragraph is in no way intended to limit the rights of the Special Servicer under the related Co-Lender Agreement to seek payment of unpaid Special Servicing Compensation with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan from the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(d)               The Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust Fund for the costs and expenses incurred by them in the performance of their duties under this Agreement which are “unanticipated expenses incurred by the REMIC” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(iii). Such expenses shall include, by way of example and not by way of limitation, environmental assessments, Appraisals in connection with foreclosure, the fees and expenses of any administrative or judicial proceeding and expenses expressly identified as reimbursable in Section 3.06(a)(vi) of this Agreement.

(e)               No provision of this Agreement or of the Trust Certificates shall require the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee to expend or

risk their own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of their duties hereunder or thereunder, or in the exercise of any of their rights or powers, if, in the good faith business judgment of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, repayment of such funds would not be ultimately recoverable from late payments, Net Insurance Proceeds, Net Condemnation Proceeds, Net Liquidation Proceeds and other collections on or in respect of the Mortgage Loans or Serviced Whole Loan (to the extent recovery is permitted from a Serviced Whole Loan hereunder) or from adequate indemnity from other assets comprising the Trust Fund against such risk or liability.

If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee receives a request or inquiry from a Mortgagor, any Trust Certificateholder or any other Person the response to which would, in the Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s or the Operating Advisor’s commercially reasonable judgment or the Certificate Administrator’s or the Trustee’s good faith business judgment require the assistance of Independent legal counsel or other consultant to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee the cost of which would not be an expense of the Trust Fund hereunder, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall not be required to take any action in response to such request or inquiry unless the Mortgagor or such Trust Certificateholder or such other Person, as applicable, makes arrangements for the payment of the Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s, the Operating Advisor’s, the Certificate Administrator’s or the Trustee’s expenses associated with such counsel (including, without limitation, posting an advance payment for such expenses) satisfactory to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee as the case may be, in its sole discretion. Unless such arrangements have been made, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee as the case may be, shall have no liability to any Person for the failure to respond to such request or inquiry.

(f)                With respect to each Collection Period, the Special Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer, within two Business Days following the related Determination Date, and the Master Servicer shall deliver, to the extent it has received such information, to the Certificate Administrator, without charge and within one Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date, an electronic report that discloses and contains an itemized listing of any Disclosable Special Servicer Fees received by the Special Servicer or any of its Affiliates during the related Collection Period; provided, that no such report shall be due in any month during which no Disclosable Special Servicer Fees were received.

(g)               The Special Servicer and its Affiliates shall be prohibited from receiving or retaining any compensation or any other remuneration (including, without limitation, in the form of commissions, brokerage fees or rebates) from any Person (including, without limitation, the Trust, any Mortgagor, any Manager, any guarantor or indemnitor in respect of a Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan and any purchaser of any Serviced Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan or REO Property) in connection with the disposition, workout or foreclosure of any Serviced Loan, the management or disposition of any REO Property, or the performance of any other special servicing duties under this Agreement, other than as expressly provided in this Section 3.12; provided that such prohibition shall not apply to Permitted Special Servicer/Affiliate Fees or the fees received by any Person acting as an Outside Servicer or Outside Special Servicer

- 277 -

as expressly provided for under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, or as master servicer or special servicer as expressly provided for under the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement governing the securitization of a Serviced Companion Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing is not intended to act as a prohibition on the right of any entity acting in the capacities of both Master Servicer and Special Servicer from receiving or retaining any fees, compensation or other remuneration it is entitled to in its capacity as Master Servicer pursuant to this Agreement.

(h)               If a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan prior to the related Servicing Shift Date, the Special Servicer shall service and administer the related Whole Loan and any related REO Property in the same manner as any other Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property and shall be entitled to all rights and compensation earned with respect to the related Whole Loan during the period for which it acts as Special Servicer of the related Whole Loan. With respect to a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, prior to the related Servicing Shift Date, no other special servicer will be entitled to any such compensation or have such rights and obligations. If a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan is still a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan on the related Servicing Shift Date, the related Outside Special Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to compensation with respect to the related Whole Loan as if the Special Servicer were being terminated as Special Servicer and the related Outside Special Servicer were replacing it as the successor special servicer. Upon receipt of notice of its termination as Special Servicer with respect to a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the related Outside Special Servicer in connection with the servicing transition of such Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan on and after the related Servicing Shift Date.

Section 3.13           Compensating Interest Payments. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account (other than the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment described below that is allocable to a Serviced Companion Loan which shall be remitted by the Master Servicer to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder) or, in the case of a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, delivered to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the applicable Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC Distribution Account) on each Master Servicer Remittance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor, an amount, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan and any related REO Loan, equal to the lesser of:

(i)                    the aggregate of all Prepayment Interest Shortfalls incurred in connection with voluntary Principal Prepayments received in respect of the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loans (in each case other than a Specially Serviced Loan or a Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan on which the Special Servicer allowed a prepayment on a date other than the applicable Due Date) for the related Distribution Date; and

(ii)                 the aggregate of (A) that portion of the Master Servicer’s Servicing Fees for the related Distribution Date that is, in the case of each Serviced Mortgage Loan, Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, Trust Subordinate Companion Loan and related

- 278 -

REO Loan for which such Servicing Fees are being paid in such Collection Period, calculated at a per annum rate equal to (1) 0.00125% for each Mortgage Loan (other than an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), Serviced Companion Loan and related REO Loan without an initial sub-servicer; and (2) 0.000625% for each Mortgage Loan (other than an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), Serviced Companion Loan and the related REO Loan where servicing functions are performed by an initial sub-servicer, and (B) all Prepayment Interest Excesses received by the Master Servicer during such Collection Period with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loans (and, so long as a Whole Loan is serviced under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement so permits, any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) subject to such prepayment and net investment earnings on such Prepayment Interest Excesses. In no event will the rights of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners to the offset of the aggregate Prepayment Interest Shortfalls be cumulative.

If a Prepayment Interest Shortfall occurs with respect to a Trust Loan as a result of the Master Servicer allowing the related Mortgagor to deviate from the terms of the related Loan Documents regarding Principal Prepayments (other than (w) if the Trust Loan is an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, (x) subsequent to a default under the related Loan Documents or if the Trust Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan, (y) pursuant to applicable law or a court order or otherwise in such circumstances where the Master Servicer is required to accept such principal prepayment in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or (z) in connection with the payment of any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds) (a “Prohibited Prepayment”), then for purposes of calculating the Compensating Interest Payment for the related Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall pay, without regard to clause (ii) of the preceding paragraph, the amount of the Prepayment Interest Shortfall with respect to such Trust Loan otherwise described in clause (i) of the preceding paragraph in connection with such Prohibited Prepayment.

Compensating Interest Payments with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan shall be allocated between the related Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) and, if applicable, any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, in accordance with their respective principal amounts, until the respective Prepayment Interest Shortfalls with respect thereto are fully covered, and the Master Servicer shall pay the portion of such Compensating Interest Payments allocable to a related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan to the holder thereof.

Section 3.14           Application of Penalty Charges and Modification Fees.

(a)               On or prior to the second Business Day before each Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall apply all Penalty Charges and Modification Fees (to the extent permitted under any related Co-Lender Agreement (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan) and not applied pursuant to Section 3.06A(a)(ii) or Section 3.06(a)(ii), as applicable, of this Agreement) received by it with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, including an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan (to the extent allocable to such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement and remitted to the Master Servicer by the related Outside Servicer) during the related Collection Period, as follows:

- 279 -

(i)                    first, to the extent of all Penalty Charges and Modification Fees (in such order), to pay or reimburse the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and/or the Trustee, as applicable, for all outstanding Advances (including unreimbursed Advances that have been determined to be Nonrecoverable Advances) and the related Advance Interest Amounts and other outstanding Additional Trust Fund Expenses (including, in the case of the application of Penalty Charges, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) other than Borrower Delayed Reimbursements, in each case, with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan;

(ii)                 second, to the extent of all remaining Penalty Charges and Modification Fees (in such order), as a reimbursement to the Trust of all Advances (and related Advance Interest Amounts) with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan previously determined to be Nonrecoverable Advances and previously reimbursed to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and/or the Trustee, as applicable, from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account (and such amounts will be retained or deposited in the Collection Account as recoveries of such Nonrecoverable Advances and related Advance Interest Amounts) other than Borrower Delayed Reimbursements;

(iii)               third, to the extent of all remaining Penalty Charges and Modification Fees (in such order), as a reimbursement to the Trust of all other Additional Trust Fund Expenses (including, in the case of the application of Penalty Charges, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan previously paid from the Collection Account or related Whole Loan Custodial Account (and such amounts will be retained or deposited in the Collection Account or related Whole Loan Custodial Account as recoveries of such Additional Trust Fund Expenses) other than Borrower Delayed Reimbursements; and

(iv)                fourth, to the extent of any remaining Penalty Charges and any remaining Modification Fees, to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as servicing compensation, pro rata, based on their entitlement set forth in Section 3.12 of this Agreement prior to the applications set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above;

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Whole Loan, Penalty Charges shall be allocated for the purposes and in the order set forth in the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(b)               In connection with the operation of the provisions of this Section 3.14, not later than the 25th day of the month in which each Distribution Date occurs (beginning with the 25th day of the month following the first Collection Period in which an Additional Trust Fund Expense, Advance or Advance Interest Amount is incurred), the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Special Servicer a report in the form reasonably agreed to by both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer setting forth information regarding (1) the amount of Penalty Charges, Modification Fees and Assumption Fees collected by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, and (2) the related loan expenses and other amounts paid to the Trust from such Penalty Charges, Modification Fees and Assumption Fees, in each case for the related Collection Period or other reporting period as agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Master Servicer shall respond promptly to any inquiries of the Special Servicer with respect to the

- 280 -

contents of any such report and shall provide any supporting information with respect thereto that is reasonably requested by the Special Servicer.

Section 3.15           Access to Certain Documentation. The Master Servicer and Special Servicer shall provide to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Controlling Class Representative (but only prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Consultation Termination Event), the Operating Advisor, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers, the Depositor and any Trust Certificateholders and Serviced Companion Loan Holders that are, in the case of any Trust Certificateholder or Serviced Companion Loan Holder, federally insured financial institutions, the Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC and the OCC and the supervisory agents and examiners of such boards and such corporations, and any other governmental or regulatory body to the jurisdiction of which any Trust Certificateholder or Serviced Companion Loan Holder is subject, access to the documentation regarding the Trust Loans required by applicable regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, FDIC, OCC or any such governmental or regulatory body, such access being afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer (which access shall be limited, in the case of the Serviced Companion Loan Holders or any regulatory authority seeking such access in respect of the Serviced Companion Loan Holders, to records relating to the Serviced Companion Loans). Nothing in this Section 3.15 shall detract from the obligation of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgagors, and the failure of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section 3.15 as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.15.

In connection with providing or granting any information or access pursuant to the prior paragraph to a Trust Certificateholder, a Serviced Companion Loan Holder or any regulatory authority that may exercise authority over a Trust Certificateholder or Serviced Companion Loan Holder, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may each require payment from such Trust Certificateholder or Serviced Companion Loan Holder of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and expenses of providing such information or access, including copy charges and reasonable fees for employee time and for space; provided that no charge may be made if such information or access was required to be given or made available without charge under applicable law. In connection with providing Trust Certificateholders or beneficial owners of Trust Certificates access to the information described in the preceding paragraph, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall require (prior to affording such access) a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, generally to the effect that such Person is a Holder of Trust Certificates or a beneficial holder of book entry Trust Certificates and will keep such information confidential.

In addition, in connection with providing access to information pursuant to this Section 3.15, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may (i) affix a reasonable disclaimer to any information provided by it for which it is not the original source (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto); (ii) affix to any information provided by it a reasonable statement regarding securities law restrictions on such information and/or condition access to information on the execution of a reasonable confidentiality agreement; (iii) withhold access to confidential information or any intellectual property; and (iv) withhold access to items

- 281 -

of information contained in the Servicing File for any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan if the disclosure of such items would constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege.

Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall, without charge, make a knowledgeable Servicing Officer available via telephone to verbally answer questions from any applicable Directing Holder and Consulting Party (to the extent such Consulting Party has consultation rights pursuant to any related Co-Lender Agreement or pursuant to Section 3.21, Section 3.29 or Section 6.09, as applicable), on a monthly basis, during regular business hours at such time and for such duration as the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, on the one hand, and such applicable Directing Holder or Consulting Party, as applicable, on the other hand, shall reasonably agree, regarding the performance and servicing of the applicable Serviced Trust Loans and/or related REO Properties for which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is responsible. In any event, each applicable Directing Holder or applicable Consulting Party, as applicable, agrees to identify for the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer in advance (but at least two (2) Business Days prior to the related monthly conference) the applicable Mortgage Loans (or Serviced Whole Loan) and/or REO Properties it intends to discuss. As a condition to such disclosure, the related Directing Holder shall execute a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit M-4 to this Agreement and an Investor Certification.

The Master Servicer may (but shall not be required to), in accordance with such rules and procedures as it may adopt in its sole discretion, make available through the Master Servicer’s website or otherwise, any additional information relating to the Mortgage Loans, the Serviced Companion Loans, the related Mortgaged Properties and/or the related Mortgagors that is not Privileged Information, for review by the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor.

The Special Servicer shall deliver (to the extent available to the Special Servicer) to the Operating Advisor such reports and other information produced or otherwise available to any Outside Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Class Representative, the Uncertificated Interest Owners or Trust Certificateholders generally, as requested by the Operating Advisor in support of the performance of the Operating Advisor’s obligations under this Agreement in electronic format.

The Operating Advisor hereby agrees that it shall use the information provided to it by the Special Servicer solely for purposes of performing its duties as Operating Advisor under this Agreement and shall not disclose such information to any other Person or entity except (i) with respect to Privileged Information, pursuant to Section 3.29(j) of this Agreement, or (ii) with respect to any information other than Privileged Information, to the extent necessary to support its conclusions in its Operating Advisor Annual Report required under Section 3.29 of this Agreement or to discharge its other duties under this Agreement.

Section 3.16           Title and Management of REO Properties.

(a)               In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property (other than a Mortgaged Property with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) is acquired for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners (or, with respect to a Serviced

- 282 -

Whole Loan, for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s)) (as a collective whole as if such Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, such Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender) (either by the Trust Fund or by a single member limited liability company established for that purpose) in foreclosure, by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or upon abandonment or reclamation from bankruptcy, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of a nominee of the Trustee (which shall not include the Master Servicer), or a separate trustee or co-trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holders. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall sell any REO Property prior to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which the Lower-Tier REMIC, the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC or any related Loan REMIC, as applicable, acquires ownership of such REO Property, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.856-6(b)(1), for purposes of Code Section 860G(a)(8), unless (i) the IRS grants (or does not deny) an extension of time (an “REO Extension”) to sell such REO Property or (ii) the Special Servicer obtains an Opinion of Counsel for the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, addressed to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, to the effect that the holding by the Lower-Tier REMIC, the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC or the related Loan REMIC, as applicable, of such REO Property subsequent to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which such acquisition occurred will not result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” (as defined in Code Section 860F) of any Trust REMIC, or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code at any time that any of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, any of the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests or any of the Regular Certificates, the Loan-Specific Certificates or the Uncertificated Interests is outstanding. If the Special Servicer is granted (or is not denied) the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence or obtains the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Special Servicer shall sell such REO Property within such longer period as is permitted by such REO Extension or such Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. Any expense incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with its receiving the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the second preceding sentence or its obtaining the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the second preceding sentence shall be an expense of the Trust Fund payable out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, shall dispose of any REO Property held by the Trust Fund (i) prior to the last day of such period (taking into account extensions) by which such REO Property is required to be disposed of pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence in a manner provided under Section 3.17 of this Agreement and (ii) on the same terms and conditions as if it were the owner of such REO Property. The Special Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Certificateholders, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner and, if applicable, any related Loan-Specific Certificateholders and/or Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest Owners and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s), solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(8) or result in the receipt by the Trust Fund of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Code Section 860F(a)(2)(B) or (i) endanger the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund.

- 283 -

(b)               The Special Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject only to the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any and all things in connection with any REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) as are consistent with the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement, all on such terms and for such period as the Special Servicer deems to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner and, if applicable, any related Loan-Specific Certificateholders and/or Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest Owners and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if such Trust Certificateholders, such Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender (and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of any related Subordinate Companion Loan(s))), and, in connection therewith, the Special Servicer shall only agree to the payment of management fees that are consistent with general market standards or to terms that are more favorable. Consistent with the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall cause or permit to be earned with respect to such REO Property any “net income from foreclosure property,” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(c), which is subject to tax under the REMIC Provisions only if it has determined, and has so advised the Certificate Administrator in writing, that the earning of such income on a net after-tax basis could reasonably be expected to result in a greater recovery on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner and, if applicable, any related Loan-Specific Certificateholders and/or Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest Owners and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if such Trust Certificateholders, such Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender (and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of any related Subordinate Companion Loan(s))) than an alternative method of operation or rental of such REO Property that would not be subject to such a tax. The Special Servicer shall segregate and hold all revenues received by it with respect to any REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain with respect to any REO Property a segregated custodial account (each, an “REO Account”), each of which shall be an Eligible Account and (subject to any changes in the identities of the Special Servicer and/or the Trustee) shall be entitled “Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, on behalf of Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Trustee, for the benefit of the registered Holders of BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4, and the Uncertificated Interest Owners [IN THE CASE OF AN REO PROPERTY RELATED TO A SERVICED WHOLE LOAN: and the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s)], as their interests may appear--REO Account”. The Special Servicer shall be entitled to withdraw for its account any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in an REO Account to the extent provided in Section 3.07(b) of this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the REO Account, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of properly identified funds, all revenues and proceeds received by it with respect to any REO Property, and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of such REO Property and for other Property Protection Expenses with respect to such REO Property, including:

(i)                    all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of any REO Property;

- 284 -

(ii)                 all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of any REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon;

(iii)               all costs and expenses reasonable and necessary to protect, maintain, manage, operate, repair and restore any REO Property including, if applicable, the payments of any ground rents in respect of such REO Property; and

(iv)                any taxes imposed on any Trust REMIC in respect of net income from foreclosure property in accordance with Section 4.05 of this Agreement.

To the extent that such REO Proceeds are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above and the Special Servicer has provided written notice of such shortfall to the Master Servicer at least five (5) Business Days (or, in an emergency situation or on an urgent basis, two (2) Business Days, provided that the written notice sets forth the nature of the emergency or the basis of the urgency) prior to the date that such amounts are due, the Master Servicer shall advance the amount of such shortfall unless the Master Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance (in which case such costs shall be an expense of the Trust Fund and paid by the Master Servicer out of the Collection Account). If the Master Servicer does not make any such Advance in violation of the immediately preceding sentence, the Trustee shall make such Advance unless the Trustee determines that such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely, conclusively, on any determination by the Master Servicer that an Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Trustee, in determining whether or not a proposed Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall use its good faith business judgment. The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement of such Advances (with interest at the Advance Rate) made pursuant to the preceding sentence, to the extent set forth in Section 3.06 and/or, if applicable, Section 3.06A of this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall withdraw from each REO Account and remit to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, or, for a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Whole Loan Custodial Account, on a monthly basis prior to the related Master Servicer Remittance Date the Net REO Proceeds, Net Liquidation Proceeds, Net Condemnation Proceeds and Net Insurance Proceeds received or collected from each REO Property during the related Collection Period, except that in determining the amount of any such Net REO Proceeds, the Special Servicer may retain in each REO Account reasonable reserves for repairs, replacements and necessary capital improvements and other related expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not:

(i)               permit the Trust Fund to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;

(ii)            permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease, other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;

(iii)         authorize or permit any construction on any REO Property, other than the repair or maintenance thereof or the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than ten percent of the construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default on the related Mortgage Loan

- 285 -

or Serviced Whole Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Code Section 856(e)(4)(B); or

(iv)                Directly Operate or allow any Person to Directly Operate any REO Property on any date more than 90 days after its date of acquisition by the Trust Fund, unless such Person is an Independent Contractor;

unless, in any such case, the Special Servicer has requested and received an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Special Servicer, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee (which opinion shall be an expense of the Trust Fund and, if any related Serviced Companion Loan is part of a REMIC, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder) to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(8) (determined without regard to the exception applicable for purposes of Code Section 860D(a)) at any time that it is held by the Trust Fund, in which case the Special Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.

The Special Servicer shall be required to contract with an Independent Contractor, the fees and expenses of which shall be an expense of the Trust Fund and payable out of REO Proceeds, for the operation and management of any REO Property, within 90 days of the Trust Fund’s acquisition thereof (unless the Special Servicer shall have provided the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator with an Opinion of Counsel that the operation and management of any REO Property other than through an Independent Contractor shall not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(8)) (which opinion shall be an expense of the Trust Fund), provided that:

(i)                        the terms and conditions of any such contract shall be reasonable and customary for the area and type of property and shall not be inconsistent herewith;

(ii)                     any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property, including those listed above, and remit all related revenues (net of such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty days following the receipt thereof by such Independent Contractor;

(iii)                  none of the provisions of this Section 3.16(b) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and obligations to the Trust Fund or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner and, if applicable, any related Loan-Specific Certificateholders and/or Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest Owners and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) with respect to the operation and management of any such REO Property; and

(iv)                 the Special Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties and obligations in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property.

The Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Special Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 3.16 shall not apply to any REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

Section 3.17           Sale of Defaulted Loans and REO Properties; Sale of Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans.

(a)               The parties hereto may sell or purchase, or permit the sale or purchase of, a Mortgage Loan (excluding an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) only (i) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 3.17, (ii) as otherwise expressly provided in or contemplated by Sections 2.03 and 9.01 of this Agreement, or (iii) (A) in the case of a Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the related Co-Lender Agreement and Section 3.28 of this Agreement and (B) in the case of a Mortgage Loan with a related mezzanine loan or subordinate mortgage loan, in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the related intercreditor agreement.

(b)               Promptly upon a Serviced Loan or Serviced Whole Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan and if the Special Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that it would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner (and the related Loan-Specific Certificateholders and any related Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest Owners if a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan is involved) and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner (and the related Loan-Specific Certificateholders and any related Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest Owners if a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan is involved) and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s), constituted a single lender) to attempt to sell such Defaulted Loan, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to solicit offers for such Defaulted Loan on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner (and the related Loan-Specific Certificateholders and any related Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest Owners if a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan is involved) and, if applicable, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a fair price. Subject to the other subsections of this Section 3.17, the Special Servicer shall accept the first (and, if multiple offers are contemporaneously received, the highest) cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for such Defaulted Loan. The

- 287 -

Special Servicer shall notify any applicable Directing Holder and Consulting Party of any written offers (excluding, for the sake of clarity, any unsuccessful bids received during an auction, whether live or on-line, that were lower than the accepted offer) received regarding the sale of any Defaulted Loan, in each case to the extent requested in writing (which written request may be in the form of electronic mail) by any such party. Any Serviced Companion Loan that is part of a Defaulted Serviced Whole Loan is to be sold together with the related Mortgage Loan, subject to the other subsections of this Section 3.17 and any additional requirements set forth in the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall give the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan), any applicable Directing Holder and Consulting Party not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell any Defaulted Loan. No Interested Person shall be obligated to submit an offer to purchase any Defaulted Loan, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may offer to purchase, or purchase any Defaulted Loan pursuant hereto.

(d)               Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for any Defaulted Loan for purposes of Section 3.17(b) of this Agreement shall be determined by the Special Servicer, if the offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, and by the Trustee, if the offeror is an Interested Person (provided that the Trustee may not be an offeror); provided, however, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties; and provided, further, notwithstanding the immediately preceding proviso, the Purchase Price for any Defaulted Loan (and any equivalent amount for any related Serviced Companion Loan) shall be deemed a fair price in all cases, including with respect to any offer from an Interested Person. In all cases under this Agreement (except to the extent the Trustee is not required to determine whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for any Defaulted Loan pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence), in determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any Defaulted Loan, the Trustee shall (at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing or investing in mortgage loans similar to such Defaulted Loan that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Defaulted Loan; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee. The reasonable costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party pursuant to this Section 3.17(d) will be covered by, and will be reimbursable by the Interested Person. The Trustee will be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. In determining whether any such offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any such Defaulted Loan, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to this Agreement within the prior 9 months), among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on such Defaulted Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. The appraiser conducting any new Appraisal for determining whether any offer from a Person other than an Interested Person represents a fair price for any Defaulted Loan shall be an Appraiser selected by the Special Servicer. The cost of any such Appraisal shall be covered by, and shall be

- 288 -

reimbursable to, the Master Servicer as a Property Advance if no Interested Person is offering to purchase such Defaulted Loan.

(e)               Subject to Section 3.17(a) through Section 3.17(d), Section 3.17(f), Section 3.17(g) and Section 3.17(m), the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trust Fund and any affected Serviced Companion Loan Holder in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any Defaulted Loan, and the collection of all amounts payable in connection therewith. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer may charge prospective offerors, and may retain, fees that approximate the Special Servicer’s actual costs in the preparation and delivery of information pertaining to such sales or exchanging offers without obligation to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account or, if applicable, the Whole Loan Custodial Account. Any sale of any Defaulted Loan shall be final and without recourse to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Trust Fund (except such recourse to the Trust Fund imposed by those representations and warranties typically given in such transactions, any appropriations applied thereto and any customary closing matters), and if such sale is consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Trustee shall have any liability to any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner with respect to the purchase price therefor accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.

(f)                Subject to (x) the rights of a holder of a mezzanine loan, under the respective intercreditor agreement, and (y) the rights of a Subordinate Companion Loan Holder, under the respective Co-Lender Agreement, to purchase a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan (or senior portion thereof), unless and until a Defaulted Loan is sold pursuant to this Section , the Special Servicer shall continue to service and administer such Defaulted Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard and this Agreement and shall pursue such other resolutions or recovery strategies including workout, foreclosure or sale of such Defaulted Loan, as is consistent with this Agreement and the Servicing Standard.

(g)               Any sale of a Defaulted Loan pursuant to this Section 3.17 shall be for cash only. The purchase price for any Defaulted Loan purchased under this Section 3.17 or any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan sold in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement or Outside Servicing Agreement, shall be deposited into the Collection Account or the related Whole Loan Custodial Account, as applicable, and the Certificate Administrator (or a Custodian appointed by it), upon receipt of (i) an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer to the effect that such deposit has been made and (ii) a Request for Release, shall release or cause to be released to the purchaser of the Defaulted Loan the related Mortgage File, and the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in such purchaser ownership of such Defaulted Loan. In connection with any such purchase, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer shall deliver the related Servicing File (to the extent either has possession of such file) to such purchaser.

(h)               The parties hereto may sell or purchase, or permit the sale or purchase of, an REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) only on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 3.17.

- 289 -

(i)                 The Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to solicit offers for each REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) on behalf of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a fair price within the time period specified by Section 3.16 of this Agreement. Subject to Section 3.17(m) of this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall accept the first (and, if multiple offers are contemporaneously received, highest) cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for such REO Property. If the Special Servicer determines, in its good faith and reasonable judgment, that it will be unable to realize a fair price for any REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) within the time constraints imposed by Section 3.16 of this Agreement, then the Special Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property upon such terms and conditions as the Special Servicer shall deem necessary and desirable to maximize the recovery thereon under the circumstances and, in connection therewith, shall accept the highest outstanding cash offer, regardless from whom received. The Liquidation Proceeds (net of related Liquidation Expenses) for any REO Property sold hereunder shall be deposited in the Collection Account or, if applicable, the related Whole Loan Custodial Account.

(j)                 The Special Servicer shall give the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, the Operating Advisor, any applicable Directing Holder and any applicable Consulting Party not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell any REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) hereunder. No Interested Person shall be obligated to submit an offer to purchase any REO Property, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may offer to purchase, or purchase, any REO Property pursuant hereto.

(k)               Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for any REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) for purposes of Section 3.17(i) of this Agreement shall be determined by the Special Servicer, if the offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, and by the Trustee, if the offeror is an Interested Person (provided that the Trustee may not be an offeror); provided, however, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties; and provided, further, notwithstanding the immediately preceding proviso, the Purchase Price for any such REO Property shall be deemed a fair price in all cases, including with respect to any offer from an Interested Person. In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any such REO Property, the Trustee shall (at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing or investing in properties similar to such REO Property that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such REO Property; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee. The reasonable costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party pursuant to this Section 3.17(k) will be covered by, and will be reimbursable by the Interested Person. The Trustee will be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. In determining whether any such offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any such REO Property, the Special Servicer shall take into

- 290 -

account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to this Agreement within the prior 9 months), among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of such REO Property, the state of the local economy and the obligation to dispose of such REO Property within the time period specified in Section 3.16 of this Agreement. The appraiser conducting any new Appraisal for determining whether any offer from a Person other than an Interested Person represents a fair price for any REO Property shall be an Appraiser selected by the Special Servicer. The cost of any such Appraisal shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable to, the Master Servicer as a Property Advance if no Interested Person is offering to purchase such REO Property.

(l)                 Subject to Section 3.17(a) through Section 3.17(k) and Section 3.17(m) of this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trust Fund and any affected Serviced Companion Loan Holder in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any Defaulted Loan or REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the collection of all amounts payable in connection therewith. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer may charge prospective offerors, and may retain, fees that approximate the Special Servicer’s actual costs in the preparation and delivery of information pertaining to such sales or exchanging offers without obligation to deposit such amounts into the Collection Account or, if applicable, the related Whole Loan Custodial Account. Any sale of any Defaulted Loan or REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall be final and without recourse to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Trust Fund or any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder (except such recourse to the Trust Fund and the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder imposed by those representations and warranties typically given in such transactions, any appropriations applied thereto and any customary closing matters), and if such sale is consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Trustee shall have any liability to any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner with respect to the purchase price therefor accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.

(m)             Notwithstanding any of the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 3.17, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to accept the highest cash offer for a Defaulted Loan if the Special Servicer determines (in consultation with any applicable Directing Holder and Consulting Parties), in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the applicable Trust Certificateholders and Uncertificated Interest Owners and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced Whole Loan (or applicable portion thereof), the related affected Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if such Trust Certificateholders, such Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, any such related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender (and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of any related Subordinate Companion Loan(s))), and the Special Servicer may accept a lower cash offer (from any Person other than itself or an Affiliate) if it determines, in its reasonable and good faith judgment, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the applicable Trust Certificateholders and Uncertificated Interest Owners and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, any related affected Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders, such Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, any such related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender (and,

in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of any related Subordinate Companion Loan(s))) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable).

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 3.17, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to accept the highest cash offer for an REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) if the Special Servicer determines (in consultation with any applicable Directing Holder and Consulting Parties), in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the applicable Trust Certificateholders and Uncertificated Interest Owners and, in the case of a sale of an REO Property that corresponds to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if such Trust Certificateholders, such Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, any Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender (and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of any related Subordinate Companion Loan(s))), and the Special Servicer may accept a lower cash offer (from any Person other than itself or an Affiliate) if it determines, in its reasonable and good faith judgment, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the applicable Trust Certificateholders and Uncertificated Interest Owner and, in the case of an REO Property that corresponds to a Serviced Whole Loan, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if such Trust Certificateholders, such Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender (and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of any related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan(s))) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable).

In no event shall the Trust Fund or the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on its behalf purchase, or pay or advance costs to purchase, any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan or the related Companion Loan(s) or any other Mortgage Loan.

If any Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, the related Mortgaged Property shall be inspected by the Special Servicer as soon as practicable and thereafter at least every calendar year for so long as such condition exists. The cost of any annual inspection, or bi-annual inspection, as the case may be, shall be borne by the Master Servicer unless the related Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan. The Master Servicer shall reimburse the Special Servicer for the cost of any inspection of a Specially Serviced Loan as a Property Advance (or as an expense of the Trust Fund and paid by the Master Servicer out of the Collection Account if such Property Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance) and any out-of-pocket costs incurred with respect to such inspection shall be borne by the Trust Fund. The Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall prepare or cause to be prepared a written report of each such inspection performed by it pursuant to this Section 3.18(a), and shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following completion, deliver or make available a copy (in electronic format) of each such report to the Certificate Administrator (who shall post such report to the Certificate Administrator’s Website for review by Privileged Persons in accordance with Section 4.02(a)).

The Master Servicer shall forward to the Special Servicer any written notice of default under a ground lease.

(c)               The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each promptly prepare or cause to be prepared and deliver to each Serviced Companion Loan Holder a written report, prepared in the manner set forth in Section 4.02, of each inspection performed by it with respect to the related Mortgaged Property and Serviced Companion Loan related thereto.

(d)               The Master Servicer is hereby authorized to exercise any rights granted under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement in favor of the Trust (or a party on its behalf) as the holder of each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan to obtain information from the related Outside Servicer (or other similar parties with an obligation to make advances) in connection with making nonrecoverability determinations. The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver to any related Outside Servicer, upon request, such information in the Master Servicer’s possession as the related Outside Servicer reasonably requests in order to determine whether an advance similar to a P&I Advance would be “nonrecoverable.”

(e)               If required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the Master Servicer shall promptly deliver to each Serviced Companion Loan Holder or provide electronically: (i) copies of operating statements and rent rolls; (ii) annual CREFC^® NOI Adjustment Worksheets (with annual operating statements as exhibits); and (iii) annual CREFC^® Operating Statement Analysis Reports, in each case prepared, received or obtained by it pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Mortgaged Properties securing the related Serviced Companion Loan.

Section 3.19           Lock-Box Accounts, Escrow Accounts. Except with respect to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall administer each Lock-Box Account and Escrow Account in accordance with the related Mortgage or Loan Agreement or Lock-Box Agreement, if any, and administer any letters of credit pursuant to the related letter of credit agreement and the Loan Documents.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any cash amounts are held in an Escrow Account or other cash collateral account and the mortgagee under the related Loan Documents is permitted, but not required, to apply such amounts to prepay the related Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall apply such amounts to prepay the Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan) until after the occurrence of an event of default under the Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan) that may result in the Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan) being accelerated or becoming a Specially Serviced Loan.

Section 3.20          Property Advances.

(a)               Except with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer (or, to the extent provided in Section 3.20(b) of this Agreement, the Trustee) shall make any Property Advances as and to the extent incidental to the performance of its duties under this Agreement or otherwise required pursuant to the terms hereof; provided that no Property Advances shall be made with regard to a Subordinate Companion Loan held outside the Trust if the related Mortgage Loan is no longer held by the Trust. The Special Servicer shall give the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any affected Serviced Companion Loan Holder not less than five (or, in the case of Emergency Advances pursuant to Section 3.20(e) of this Agreement, two) Business Days’ written notice before the date on which the Master Servicer is requested to make any Property Advance with respect to a given Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan). In addition, the Special Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any affected Serviced Companion Loan Holder with such information in its possession as the Master Servicer, the Trustee or such Serviced Companion Loan Holder, as applicable, may reasonably request to enable the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, to determine whether a requested Property Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. Any such notice by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer of a required Property Advance shall be deemed to be a determination by the Special Servicer that such requested Property Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Advance, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such determination. In the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that a Property Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, all determinations of recoverability with respect to Property Advances to be made (or contemplated to be made) by the Master Servicer or the Trustee will remain with the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable. On the fourth Business Day before each Distribution Date, the Special Servicer shall report to the Master Servicer the Special Servicer’s determination as to whether any Property Advance previously made with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan is a Nonrecoverable Advance promptly after making such determination. The Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on and shall be bound by such a determination by the Special Servicer that a Property Advance previously made or contemplated to be made with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan is or would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Although the Special Servicer may determine whether a Property Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Special Servicer will have no right to (i) make an affirmative determination that any Property Advance previously made or to be made (or contemplated to be made) by the Master Servicer or the Trustee is, or would be, recoverable or (ii) reverse any determination that may have been made by the Master Servicer or the Trustee or to prohibit the Master Servicer or the Trustee from making a determination that any Property Advance constitutes or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided that this sentence will not be construed to limit the Special Servicer’s right to make a determination that a Property Advance to be made (or contemplated to be made) would be, or a previously made Advance is, a Nonrecoverable Advance, as described in this Section 3.20. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall consider Unliquidated Advances in respect of prior Property Advances for the purposes of non-recoverability determinations as if such amounts were unreimbursed Property Advances.

For purposes of distributions to Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and Serviced Companion Loan Holders and compensation to the Master Servicer or the Trustee, Property Advances shall not be considered to increase the principal balance of any

- 297 -

Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan so provide.

(b)               The Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee, the Special Servicer and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in writing promptly upon, and in any event within one (1) Business Day after, becoming aware that it will be unable to make any Property Advance required to be made pursuant to the terms hereof, and in connection therewith, shall set forth in such notice the amount of such Property Advance, the Person to whom it will be paid, and the circumstances and purpose of such Property Advance, and shall set forth therein information and instructions for the payment of such Property Advance, and, on the date specified in such notice for the payment of such Property Advance, or, if the date for payment has passed or if no such date is specified, then within five (5) Business Days following such notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 3.20(c) of this Agreement, shall pay the amount of such Property Advance in accordance with such information and instructions. Any notice to the Trustee pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to be given to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee if made in accordance with Section 12.04 of this Agreement.

(c)               None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall be obligated to make a Property Advance as to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or REO Property if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines that such Advance will be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The determination by any Person with an obligation hereunder to make Property Advances that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Property Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance or a determination by the Special Servicer that a Property Advance previously made or proposed to be made is or would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be made by such Person (i) in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, in accordance with the Servicing Standard and (ii) in the case of the Trustee, in accordance with its good faith business judgment and shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered on or prior to the next Master Servicer Remittance Date to (1) the affected Serviced Companion Loan Holders or their Companion Loan Holder representatives (and the related master servicer and special servicer under any related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, if applicable), in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, (2) the Trustee (unless it is the Person making the determination), (3) any applicable Directing Holder, (4) the Master Servicer (unless it is the Person making the determination), (5) the Special Servicer (unless it is the Person making the determination), and (6) the Depositor (if the Trustee is making the determination), setting forth the basis for such determination, together with any other information that supports such determination together with a copy of any Appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property, as the case may be (which Appraisal shall be an expense of the Trust Fund, shall take into account any material change in circumstances of which such Person is aware or such Person has received new information, either of which has a material effect on the value and shall have been conducted in accordance with the standards of the Appraisal Institute within the twelve months preceding such determination of nonrecoverability), and further accompanied by related Mortgagor operating statements and financial statements, budgets and rent rolls of the related Mortgaged Property (to the extent available and/or in such Person’s possession) and any engineers’ reports, environmental surveys or similar reports that such Person may have obtained and that support such determination. In connection with a determination by the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee as to whether a Property Advance previously made or to be made constitutes or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance:

- 298 -

(A)             any such Person will be entitled to consider (among other things) the obligations of the Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan as it may have been modified, to consider (among other things) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as is” or then current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse change with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, to estimate and consider (among other things) future expenses and to estimate and consider (among other things) the timing of recoveries;

(B)              any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and may obtain at the expense of the Trust Fund any analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information as reasonably may be required for such purposes;

(C)              the Special Servicer may, at its option (exercised in its sole discretion), make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard that any proposed Property Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any outstanding Property Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance and may deliver to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, any applicable Directing Holder and the Controlling Class Representative if it is an applicable Consulting Party and, in the case of a Property Advance with respect to a Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan, the related Outside Controlling Note Holder notice of such determination, which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Master Servicer and the Trustee (but this statement shall not be construed to entitle the Special Servicer to reverse any other authorized Person’s determination, or to prohibit any such other authorized Person from making a determination, that a Property Advance constitutes or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance);

(D)             the Trustee shall be entitled to rely, conclusively, on any determination by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer that a Property Advance is or, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to rely, conclusively, on any determination by the Special Servicer that a Property Advance is or, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance;

(E)              any non-recoverability determination by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.20 with respect to the non-recoverability of Property Advances shall be conclusive and binding on the Master Servicer (in the case of such a determination by the Special Servicer) and the Trustee; and

(F)              notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee may conclusively rely upon any determination by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that any Property Advance would be recoverable (unless a non-recoverability determination has been made by the other servicer in accordance with clause (E) above which is binding on the Trustee), and the Master Servicer may conclusively rely upon any

- 299 -

determination by the Special Servicer that any Property Advance would be recoverable.

(d)               The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and/or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to the reimbursement of Property Advances made by any of them to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 3.06(a)(ii) or Section 3.06A(a)(ii) of this Agreement, together with any related Advance Interest Amount in respect of such Property Advances, and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereby covenant and agree to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to obtain the reimbursement of such Property Advances from the related Mortgagors to the extent permitted by applicable law and the related Loan Documents.

(e)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if a Property Advance is required to be made under this Agreement with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property (other than an REO Property related to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Special Servicer shall request that the Master Servicer make such Property Advance, such request to be made, in writing, at least five (5) Business Days (or, in the case of an Emergency Advance, two (2) Business Days, provided that the written request sets forth the nature of the emergency or the basis of the urgency) in advance of the date on which such Property Advance is required to be made hereunder and to be accompanied by such information and documentation regarding the subject Property Advance as the Master Servicer may reasonably request, subject to the Master Servicer’s right to determine that such Property Advance does not constitute or would not constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Master Servicer shall have the obligation to make any such Property Advance that it is so requested by the Special Servicer to make, within five (5) Business Days (or, in the case of an Emergency Advance, two (2) Business Days) of the Master Servicer’s receipt of such request. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Property Advance; provided that the Special Servicer may in its sole discretion elect to make an Emergency Advance, and the Master Servicer shall reimburse the Special Servicer for such Property Advance (with interest thereon), provided that such Advance is not determined by the Master Servicer, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, to be nonrecoverable. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for any Advance made by it at the direction of the Special Servicer, together with interest thereon at the same time, in the same manner and to the same extent as the Master Servicer is entitled with respect to any other Advances made thereby.

(f)                Within five (5) Business Days of making an Emergency Advance pursuant to the proviso to the penultimate sentence of Section 3.20(e), the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer a request for reimbursement for such Emergency Advance, along with all information and documentation regarding the subject Emergency Advance as the Master Servicer may reasonably request, and the Master Servicer shall be obligated, out of such Master Servicer’s own funds, to reimburse the Special Servicer for any such unreimbursed Emergency Advances (other than any Emergency Advance determined by the Master Servicer, in accordance with Section 3.20(c) of this Agreement, to be a Nonrecoverable Property Advance) made by the Special Servicer pursuant to the proviso to the penultimate sentence of Section 3.20(e), together with interest thereon at the Advance Rate from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Such reimbursement and any accompanying payment of interest shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the written request therefor pursuant to the preceding sentence by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Special

- 300 -

Servicer. Upon the Master Servicer’s reimbursement to the Special Servicer of any Emergency Advance and payment to the Special Servicer of interest thereon, all in accordance with this Section 3.20(f), the Master Servicer shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have made such Emergency Advance at the same time as the Special Servicer actually made such Emergency Advance, and accordingly, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such Emergency Advance, together with interest thereon at the Advance Rate, at the same time, in the same manner and to the same extent as the Master Servicer would otherwise have been entitled if it had actually made such Emergency Advance at the time the Special Servicer did. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.20(f), the Master Servicer shall not be required to reimburse the Special Servicer for any Emergency Advance if the Master Servicer determines in accordance with Section 3.20(c) of this Agreement that such Emergency Advance, although not characterized by the Special Servicer as a Nonrecoverable Property Advance, is in fact a Nonrecoverable Property Advance. The Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer in writing of such determination and, if applicable, such Nonrecoverable Property Advance shall be reimbursed to the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.06(a) of this Agreement.

Section 3.21           Appointment of Special Servicer; Asset Status Reports.

(a)               Argentic Services Company LP is hereby appointed as the initial Special Servicer to specially service each of the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and each Serviced Whole Loan.

(b)               The Special Servicer, at the earlier of (x) within 60 days after a Servicing Transfer Event occurs and (y) prior to taking action with respect to any Major Decision (or making a determination not to take action with respect to a Major Decision) with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, shall prepare a report (the “Asset Status Report”) for the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. Each Asset Status Report shall be delivered in electronic format to the Operating Advisor (subject to Section 3.21(e) of this Agreement), any applicable Directing Holder, any applicable Consulting Parties and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider; provided, however, the Special Servicer shall not be required to deliver an Asset Status Report to the related Directing Holder if they are the same entity. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Operating Advisor each Final Asset Status Report promptly after such Final Asset Status Report has been approved or deemed approved. The Special Servicer shall notify the Operating Advisor of whether any Asset Status Report delivered to the Operating Advisor is a Final Asset Status Report, which notification may be satisfied by (i) delivery of an Asset Status Report that is either signed by the applicable Directing Holder or that otherwise includes an indication that such Asset Status Report is deemed approved due to the passage of any required consent or consultation time period or (ii) such other method as reasonably agreed to by the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall deliver a summary of each Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator. Such Asset Status Report shall be consistent with the Servicing Standard and set forth the following information to the extent reasonably determinable:

(i)                    summary of the status of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and any negotiations with the Mortgagors;

(B)                    the most current rent roll and income or operating statement available for the related Mortgaged Properties;

(C)                    the Special Servicer’s recommendations on how the related Mortgage Loan might be returned to performing status or otherwise realized upon;

(D)                   a copy of the last obtained Appraisal of the Mortgaged Property;

(E)                     the status of any foreclosure actions or other proceedings undertaken with respect thereto, any proposed workouts with respect thereto and the status of any negotiations with respect to such workouts, and an assessment of the likelihood of additional defaults under the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan;

(F)                      a description of any amendment, modification or waiver of a material term of any ground lease; and

(G)                     if the Special Servicer elects to proceed with a non-judicial foreclosure, then a statement as to (i) whether there was a violation of a non-recourse carve-out under the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and (ii) any determination not to pursue a deficiency judgment against the related Mortgagor or guarantor;

(iii)                   a description of any such proposed or taken actions;

(iv)                    the alternative courses of action that were or are being considered by the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed or taken actions;

(v)                       the decision that the Special Servicer made, or intends or proposes to make, including a narrative analysis setting forth the Special Servicer’s rationale for its proposed decision, including its rejection of the alternatives;

(vi)                    an analysis of whether or not taking such proposed action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a present value basis than not taking such action, setting forth (x) the basis on which the Special Servicer made such determination and (y) the net present value calculation (including the applicable Calculation Rate used) and all related assumptions;

- 302 -

(vii)             information regarding any direct or indirect conflict of interest in such proposed or taken actions; and

(viii)           such other information as the Special Servicer deems relevant in light of the proposed or taken action and the Servicing Standard.

If any applicable Directing Holder does not disapprove an Asset Status Report in writing within 10 Business Days of receiving such Asset Status Report, then such Directing Holder shall be deemed to have approved such Asset Status Report and the Special Servicer shall implement the recommended action as outlined in such Asset Status Report; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may not take any action that is contrary to applicable law, the Servicing Standard or the terms of the applicable Loan Documents. If the applicable Directing Holder disapproves such Asset Status Report within 10 Business Days of receipt and the Special Servicer has not made the affirmative determination contemplated below, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report and deliver to the Operating Advisor (subject to Section 3.21(e) of this Agreement), any applicable Directing Holder, any applicable Consulting Party, any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan) and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider a new Asset Status Report as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days after such disapproval. The Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report as described above until the applicable Directing Holder shall fail to disapprove such revised Asset Status Report in writing within 10 Business Days of receiving such revised Asset Status Report or until the Special Servicer makes a determination, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that such objection is not in the best interests of all the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if such Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and/or Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s), if applicable, constitute a single lender (and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of the related Subordinate Companion Loan(s))). The Special Servicer may, from time to time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered and implement such report, provided such report shall have been prepared, reviewed and not rejected pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.21(b). If the applicable Directing Holder does not approve an Asset Status Report within 60 Business Days from the first submission thereof, the Special Servicer shall take such action as directed by such Directing Holder, provided such action does not violate the Servicing Standard (or, if such action would violate the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall take such action as was reflected in the most recent Asset Status Report prepared by the Special Servicer with respect to the subject Serviced Loan that is consistent with the Servicing Standard and such Asset Status Report shall be deemed a Final Asset Status Report). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Special Servicer determines that emergency action is necessary to protect the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s), or if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer may take actions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property before the expiration of a 10 Business Day period if the Special Servicer reasonably determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that failure to take such actions before the expiration of a 10 Business Day period would materially and adversely affect the interest of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (if applicable) and the Special Servicer has made a

- 303 -

reasonable effort to contact the applicable Directing Holder (during the period that such Directing Holder has approval rights); provided that the foregoing shall not relieve the Special Servicer of its duties to comply with the Servicing Standard. If the Special Servicer acts or intends to act in accordance with either of the prior two sentences, then the Special Servicer shall act in accordance with the most recent Asset Status Report provided by the Special Servicer with respect to the subject Serviced Loan that is consistent with the Servicing Standard and such Asset Status Report shall be deemed a Final Asset Status Report. To the extent that the Special Servicer received notice of an Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan (in the form of Exhibit M-1C or M-1F), any Asset Status Report or Excluded Information delivered with respect to an Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan shall be labeled by the Special Servicer with “Excluded Information” followed by the loan number and loan name.

The Special Servicer shall consult on a non-binding basis with any applicable Consulting Party (other than any Risk Retention Consultation Party) in connection with each Asset Status Report prior to finalizing and executing such Asset Status Report and any applicable Consulting Party (other than any Risk Retention Consultation Party) shall be permitted to propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback within 10 Business Days of receipt of each Asset Status Report. The Special Servicer shall consider any such proposals and other feedback from any such applicable Consulting Party and determine whether any changes to its proposed Asset Status Report should be made, such determination being made in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the other terms of this Agreement, but the Special Servicer will be under no obligation to revise such Asset Status Report based on the input or comments of any applicable Consulting Party. In the event no applicable Consulting Party proposes alternative courses of action within 10 Business Days after receipt of such Asset Status Report, the Special Servicer shall (subject to the approval rights of any applicable Directing Holder) implement the Asset Status Report as proposed by the Special Servicer.

The Special Servicer may choose to revise the Asset Status Report as it deems reasonably necessary in accordance with the Servicing Standard to take into account any input and/or recommendations of any applicable Consulting Party, but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of any applicable Consulting Party. From and after the Closing Date, the Controlling Class Representative shall have no right to receive any Asset Status Report related to an Excluded Mortgage Loan or otherwise to consent or object thereto under this Section 3.21(b) or consult with the Special Servicer with respect to any matter set forth therein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have no right to receive any Asset Status Report with respect to any related Excluded RRCP Mortgage Loan.

With respect to a Servicing Shift Whole Loan that is a Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan, prior to the related Servicing Shift Date, no request for approval of the Controlling Class Representative shall be made on any matter related to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan, nor shall the Controlling Class Representative have the right to approve Asset Status Reports related to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan, except that the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and only if the related Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Mortgage Loan) may exercise the consultation rights, if any, of the holder of the related Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan with respect to Asset Status Reports, Major Decisions and any proposed sale of such Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan set forth in the applicable Co-Lender Agreement. With respect to a Servicing Shift Whole Loan that is a

- 304 -

Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan and any related REO Property, prior to the related Servicing Shift Date, the Outside Controlling Note Holder with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan shall exercise all approval rights regarding any Asset Status Report in respect of such Servicing Shift Whole Loan or REO Property set forth in the second paragraph of this Section 3.21(b) without regard to the occurrence of any Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, the Operating Advisor will be entitled to consult on a non-binding basis with the Special Servicer and propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback in respect of any Asset Status Report, Major Decisions and any proposed sale of such Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan while it is serviced hereunder. The Special Servicer may choose to revise the Asset Status Report as it deems reasonably necessary in accordance with the Servicing Standard to take into account any input and/or recommendations of the Operating Advisor after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event or the Controlling Class Representative after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Operating Advisor or Controlling Class Representative.

(c)               Subject to Section 3.21(b) of this Agreement, during the continuance of a Servicing Transfer Event, the Special Servicer shall have the authority to meet with the related Mortgagors and take any actions consistent with the Servicing Standard and the most recent Asset Status Report for the related Mortgage Loan.

(d)               Upon request of any Trust Certificateholder (or any Certificate Owner, if applicable, which shall have provided the Certificate Administrator with an Investor Certification), the Certificate Administrator shall mail, without charge, to the address specified in such request a copy of the summary of the Final Asset Status Report for each Specially Serviced Loan; provided that an Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall not be provided with any Final Asset Status Report (or copy thereof) or the summary of any Final Asset Status Report (or copy thereof) with respect to any Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan with respect to which such Excluded Controlling Class Holder is a Borrower Party.

(e)               Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Operating Advisor only each related Final Asset Status Report.

(f)                With respect to any Asset Status Report provided to the Operating Advisor pursuant to this Section 3.21, the Special Servicer shall make available to the Operating Advisor one or more Servicing Officers with relevant knowledge regarding the applicable Trust Loan and such Asset Status Report in order to address reasonable questions that the Operating Advisor may have relating to, among other things, such Asset Status Report and potential conflicts of interest and compensation with respect to such Asset Status Report.

(g)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not follow any advice, direction or consultation provided by a Directing Holder or Consulting Party that would require or cause the Special Servicer to violate any applicable law, be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, require or cause the Special Servicer to violate provisions of this Agreement

- 305 -

or the REMIC Provisions, require or cause the Special Servicer to violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, any related Loan Documents, any related Co-Lender Agreement or any intercreditor agreement, expose any Trust Certificateholder, any Uncertificated Interest Owner, the Trust Fund, any Mortgage Loan Seller (other than with respect to enforcing the rights and remedies against such Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to this Agreement or the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to any Material Defect) or any party to this Agreement or their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents to any claim, suit or liability, cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions, materially expand the scope of any Special Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement or any Co-Lender Agreement, or cause the Special Servicer to act, or fail to act, in a manner that in the reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer is not in the best interests of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and/or the Serviced Companion Loan Holders. In addition, the Special Servicer is under no obligation to act upon any recommendation of the Operating Advisor.

(h)               In order to comply with the laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable to banking institutions, including those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering (for the purposes of this clause (l), “Applicable Laws”), the Special Servicer may be required to obtain, verify and record certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship with the Special Servicer.

The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the date such Serviced Loan became a Specially Serviced Loan and in any event shall continue to act as Master Servicer and administrator of such Serviced Loan until the Special Servicer has commenced the servicing of such Serviced Loan, which shall occur upon the receipt by the Special Servicer of the

With respect to each such Serviced Loan that becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall instruct the related Mortgagor to continue to remit all payments in respect of such Serviced Loan to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall forward any notices it would otherwise send to the Mortgagor of such a Specially Serviced Loan to the Special Servicer who shall send such notice to the related Mortgagor.

In addition, if the related Mortgagor has been instructed, pursuant to the preceding paragraph, to make payments to the Special Servicer, upon such determination, the Special Servicer shall instruct the related Mortgagor to remit all payments in respect of such Specially Serviced Loan directly to the Master Servicer.

(b)               In servicing any Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall provide to the Custodian originals of documents included within the definition of “Mortgage File” for inclusion in the related Mortgage File (to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Special Servicer) and copies of any additional related Serviced Loan information, including written or electronic correspondence with the related Mortgagor, and the Special Servicer shall promptly provide copies of all of the foregoing to the Master Servicer as well as copies of any analysis or internal review prepared by or for the benefit of the Special Servicer.

The Certificate Administrator shall establish and maintain the Interest Reserve Account in the Certificate Administrator’s name, on behalf of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners. The Interest Reserve Account shall be established and maintained as a non-interest bearing Eligible Account. On each Master Servicer Remittance Date occurring in January (except during a leap year) or February (commencing in 2025) (unless, in either such case, the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Master Servicer shall remit to the Certificate Administrator

- 307 -

for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account, in respect of all the Trust Loans that accrue interest on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days in the related month, an amount equal to one day’s interest at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the Stated Principal Balance of each such Trust Loan as of the close of business on the Distribution Date in the month preceding the month in which such Master Servicer Remittance Date occurs, to the extent a Monthly Payment or P&I Advance is made in respect thereof (all amounts so deposited in any consecutive January (if applicable) and February, “Withheld Amounts”). On or prior to the Master Servicer Remittance Date in March (or February if the final Distribution Date occurs in such month) of each calendar year (commencing in 2025), the Certificate Administrator shall transfer (1) to the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account the aggregate of all Withheld Amounts with respect to the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account, and (2) to the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC Distribution Account the aggregate of all Withheld Amounts with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account.

Following such notice, the applicable Directing Holder shall have 10 Business Days (or, in the case of a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, 30 days) from the date it receives from the Special Servicer the recommendation and analysis of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or, in the case of any action that constitutes a Major Decision, the related Major Decision Reporting Package), as applicable, and any other information it may reasonably request (or, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, such longer time period as may be provided in the related Co-Lender Agreement) to approve any recommendation of the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer relating to any such request for approval of modification, waiver, amendment, consent or other action that constitutes a Major Decision. In any such event, if the applicable Directing Holder does not respond to a request for approval by 5:00 p.m. on the 10th Business Day (or, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, such longer time period as may be provided in the related Co-Lender Agreement) or 30th day, as applicable, after receipt of the applicable recommendation and analysis

- 310 -

(or, in the case of any action that constitutes a Major Decision, the related Major Decision Reporting Package) and other requested information as set forth in the preceding sentence, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, may deem its recommendation approved by the applicable Directing Holder, and if the Special Servicer does not respond to a request for approval within the required 15 Business Days (or, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, such longer period as required by the related Co-Lender Agreement, but in no event less than 5 Business Days after the time period set forth in such Co-Lender Agreement for review by any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder or its Companion Loan Holder Representative) or 60 days (with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default), as applicable, the Master Servicer may deem its recommendation approved by the Special Servicer.

(c)               Subject to Section 3.30 of this Agreement, any modification of any Loan Documents that requires obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to such Loan Documents, or any modification that would eliminate, modify or alter the requirement of obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation in such Loan Documents, shall not be made without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation. The Rating Agency Confirmation shall be obtained at the related Mortgagor’s expense in accordance with the related Loan Agreement or, if not so provided in such Loan Agreement or if such Mortgagor does not pay, at the expense of the Trust Fund.

(d)               Promptly after any Mortgage Loan, Trust Subordinate Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall request from

- 311 -

the Certificate Administrator the name of the current Controlling Class Representative (or, in the case of a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan, so long as no Control Appraisal Period exists with respect to such Whole Loan, the current Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative, as applicable) and, if applicable, shall request from the Master Servicer the name of the current related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s). Upon receipt of the name of any such current Controlling Class Representative (or, if applicable, such current Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative) from the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer shall notify such Controlling Class Representative (or, if applicable, such current Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative) that such Trust Loan became a Specially Serviced Loan. Upon receipt of the name of such current related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer shall notify the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) that the related Serviced Whole Loan became a Specially Serviced Loan.

(f)                The Special Servicer or Master Servicer may, as a condition to granting any request by a Mortgagor for consent to a modification, extension, waiver or indulgence or any other matter or thing, the granting of which is within its discretion pursuant to the terms of the instruments evidencing or securing the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and, further, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and applicable law, require that such Mortgagor pay to it a reasonable or customary fee for the additional services performed in connection with such request and any related costs and expenses incurred by it; provided that the charging of such fee would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

(g)               Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement, in no event shall the Special Servicer be permitted to:

(h)               In connection with (i) the release of a Mortgaged Property or any portion of a Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage or (ii) the taking of a Mortgaged Property or any portion of a Mortgaged Property by exercise of the power of eminent domain or condemnation, if the related Loan Documents require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to calculate (or require the Mortgagor to provide such calculation to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) the loan-to-value ratio of the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties or the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, for purposes of REMIC qualification of the related Serviced Trust Loan, then, unless then permitted by the REMIC Provisions, such calculation shall exclude the value of personal property and going concern value, if any. In connection with approving any such release or taking, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall calculate the loan-to-value ratio in a manner consistent with the prior sentence, and if such calculation is greater than 125%, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will require a payment of principal in an amount equal to or greater than a “qualified amount” as determined under Revenue Procedure 2010-30 or successor provisions unless the related Mortgagor provides an Opinion of Counsel that if such amount is not paid the related Mortgage Loan will not fail to be a Qualified Mortgage.

(i)                 If and to the extent that the Trust, as holder of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, is entitled to exercise any consent and/or consultation rights with respect to modifications, waivers and amendments or certain other major decisions under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement, (a) any such consent rights shall be exercised by the Controlling Class Representative (unless a Control Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consent under the related Co-Lender Agreement) or by the Special Servicer (if a Control Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consent under the related Co-Lender Agreement), in each case in accordance with Section 3.01(i), and (b) any such consultation rights shall be exercised by the Controlling Class Representative (unless a Consultation Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consult under the related Co-Lender Agreement) or by the Special Servicer (if a Consultation Termination Event exists or the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consult under the related Co-Lender Agreement), in each case in accordance with Section 3.01(i); provided that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, any such consultation rights shall be exercised by the Special Servicer or the Controlling Class Representative, as applicable, jointly with the Operating Advisor (but, in the case of the Operating Advisor, only with respect to matters similar to Major Decisions). The Master Servicer shall only be obligated to forward any requests received from the related Outside Servicer or the related Outside Special Servicer, as applicable, for such consent and/or consultation to the Special Servicer (who shall forward any such request to the Controlling Class Representative except if a

- 313 -

Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event, as applicable, has occurred and is continuing or if the Controlling Class Representative is not permitted to consent or consult, as applicable, under the related Co-Lender Agreement and, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, to the Operating Advisor), and the Master Servicer shall have no right or obligation to exercise any such consent or consultation rights.

Section 3.27           Additional Matters Regarding Advance Reimbursement.

(a)               Upon the determination that a previously made Advance (other than a P&I Advance on a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) is a Nonrecoverable Advance, to the extent that the reimbursement thereof would exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on the Mortgage Loans deposited in the Collection Account, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, at its own option and in its sole discretion, as applicable, instead of obtaining reimbursement for the remaining amount of such Nonrecoverable Advance pursuant to Section 3.06(a)(ii)(B) of this Agreement immediately, may elect to defer reimbursement for some or all such portion of the Nonrecoverable Advance during the one-month Collection Period ending on the then-current Determination Date, for successive one-month periods for a total not to exceed 12 months; provided that any deferral in excess of 6 months shall be subject to the consent of the applicable Directing Holder; and provided further that, if it is an applicable Consulting Party, the Controlling Class Representative must be consulted with. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee makes such an election in its sole discretion to defer reimbursement with respect to all or a portion of a Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon), then such Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon) or portion thereof shall continue to be fully reimbursable in the subsequent Collection Period (subject, again, to the same sole discretion option to defer; it is acknowledged that, in such a subsequent period, such Nonrecoverable Advance shall again be reimbursable pursuant to Section 3.06(a)(ii)(B) of this Agreement). In connection with a potential election by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee to defer reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof during the one-month Collection Period ending on the related Determination Date for any Distribution Date, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall further be authorized to wait for principal collections to be received before making its determination of whether to defer reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof) until the end of such Collection Period; provided, however, if, at any time the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines that the reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance during

any Collection Period will exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections deposited in the Collection Account for the related Distribution Date, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall, through a posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, give the Rating Agencies at least 15 days’ notice prior to any reimbursement to it of Nonrecoverable Advances from amounts in the Collection Account allocable to interest on the Mortgage Loans unless (1) the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines in its sole discretion that waiting 15 days after such a notice could jeopardize the Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, ability to recover such Nonrecoverable Advances, (2) changed circumstances or new or different information becomes known to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, that could affect or cause a determination of whether any Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, whether to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance or the determination in clause (1) above, or (3) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has not timely received from the Trustee information requested by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to consider in determining whether to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided that, if clause (1), (2) or (3) apply, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall, through a posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, give Rating Agencies notice of an anticipated reimbursement to it of Nonrecoverable Advances from amounts in the Collection Account allocable to interest on the Mortgage Loans as soon as reasonably practicable in such circumstances. Subject to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall have no liability for any loss, liability or expense resulting from any notice provided to Rating Agencies contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence. Any election by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee to defer reimbursing itself for any Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon) or portion thereof with respect to any Collection Period shall not be construed to impose on the other such parties any obligation to make such an election (or any entitlement in favor of any Trust Certificateholder, any Uncertificated Interest Owner or any other Person to such an election) with respect to any subsequent Collection Period or to constitute a waiver or limitation on the right of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee to otherwise be reimbursed for such Nonrecoverable Advance immediately (together with interest thereon). Any such election by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall not be construed to impose any duty on any other such party to make such an election (or any entitlement in favor of any Trust Certificateholder, any Uncertificated Interest Owner or any other Person to such an election). Any such election by any such party to defer reimbursing itself or obtaining reimbursement for any Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof with respect to any one or more Collection Periods shall not limit the accrual of interest on such Nonrecoverable Advance for the period prior to the actual reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the other parties to this Agreement will have any liability to one another or to any of the Trust Certificateholders or any Uncertificated Interest Owner for any such election that such party makes to defer or not to defer reimbursing itself as contemplated by this paragraph or for any losses, damages or other adverse economic or other effects that may arise from such an election nor will such election constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard or any duty under this Agreement. The Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, election, if any, to defer reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advances as set forth above is an accommodation to the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners and shall

- 316 -

not be construed as an obligation on the part of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, or a right of the Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners. Nothing herein shall give the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee the right to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance if there are principal collections then available in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.06 of this Agreement or to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance for an aggregate period exceeding 12 months.

(b)               If the Master Servicer is required to make a Property Advance, but does not do so within 15 days after the Property Advance is required to be made, then the Trustee will be required: (i) if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of the failure, to give the Master Servicer notice of its failure; and (ii) if the failure continues for three more Business Days, to make the Advance unless the Trustee determines such advance to be a Nonrecoverable Advance.

Section 3.28           Serviced Companion Loan Intercreditor Matters.

(a)               If, pursuant to Section 2.03, Section 3.17 or Section 9.01 of this Agreement, any Mortgage Loan that relates to a Serviced Whole Loan is purchased from, repurchased from or substituted out of, the Trust Fund, the subsequent holder thereof shall be bound by the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement and shall assume the rights and obligations of the holder of the Note that represents the related Mortgage Loan under such Co-Lender Agreement. Subject to the provisions of the related Co-Lender Agreement regarding servicing and custodial responsibilities: (i) all portions of the related Mortgage File and (to the extent provided under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) other documents pertaining to such Mortgage Loan shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan in its capacity as the holder of the Note that represents the related Mortgage Loan (as a result of such purchase, repurchase or substitution) and (except for the actual Note) on behalf of the holder of the Note(s) that represents the Serviced Companion Loan(s); (ii) thereafter, such Mortgage File shall be held by the holder of the Note that represents the related Mortgage Loan or a custodian appointed thereby for the benefit thereof, on behalf of itself and the holder of the related Serviced Companion Loan(s) as their interests appear under the related Co-Lender Agreement; and (iii) if the related Servicing File is not already in the possession of such party, it shall be delivered to the master servicer or special servicer, as the case may be, under any separate servicing agreement for the Serviced Whole Loans.

(b)               Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult with, seek the approval of, or obtain the consent of the holder of any Serviced Companion Loan or its Companion Loan Holder Representative with respect to any matters with respect to the servicing of such Serviced Companion Loan to the extent required under related Co-Lender Agreement and shall not take such actions requiring consent of or consultation with the Serviced Companion Loan Holder or its Companion Loan Holder Representative without such consent or consultation. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall deliver reports and notices to the Serviced Companion Loan Holder or its Companion Loan Holder Representative (or the master servicer or special servicer for the related Other Securitization Trust on behalf of the Serviced Companion Loan Holder) as required under the Co-Lender Agreement.

(ii)                           the amount of the distribution from the related Whole Loan Custodial Account allocable to interest and the amount of Default Interest allocable to the related Serviced Whole Loan;

(iii)                        the amount of the distribution to the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, separately identifying the non-default interest, principal and other amounts included therein, and if the distribution to a Serviced Companion Loan Holder is less than the full amount that would be distributable to such Serviced Companion Loan Holder if there were sufficient amounts available therefor, the amount of the shortfall and the allocation thereof between interest and principal and the amount of the shortfall, if any, under the related Serviced Whole Loan;

(iv)                       the principal balance of each of the related Serviced Whole Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan after giving effect to the distribution of principal on the most recent Distribution Date; and

(v)                          the amount of the servicing fees paid to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to the most recent Distribution Date, showing separately the Servicing Fee, the Special Servicing Fee, the Workout Fee and the Liquidation Fee.

(d)               If any Serviced Companion Loan becomes the subject of an Other PSA Asset Review pursuant to the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall reasonably cooperate (and the Certificate Administrator shall cause any Custodian appointed by it to reasonably cooperate) with the related Other Asset Representations Reviewer in connection with such Other PSA Asset Review by providing the related Other Asset Representations Reviewer with any documents reasonably requested by the related Other Asset Representations Reviewer, but only to the extent that (i) the Other Asset Representations Reviewer has not been able to obtain such documents from the related Mortgage Loan Seller and (ii) such documents are in the possession of the Master

- 318 -

Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or any Custodian appointed by the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian shall have other obligations with respect to any such Other PSA Asset Review nor shall any such party be bound by the results of any such asset review.

(e)               With respect to any Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement that satisfies Regulation RR in whole or in part through the purchase by a third party purchaser of an eligible horizontal residual interest pursuant to Rule 7 of Regulation RR (a “Regulation RR Other PSA”), at any time that the Special Servicer has received written notice of such Regulation RR Other PSA and that an Other Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event has occurred under such Regulation RR Other PSA because such eligible horizontal residual interest has been reduced as set forth under Rule 7(b)(6)(iv) of Regulation RR, the Special Servicer shall consult with the related Other Operating Advisor under such Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any decisions that are Major Decisions with respect to the related Serviced Companion Loan. Such consultation shall be on a non-binding basis and shall be performed in accordance with the same process for consultations between the Special Servicer and Operating Advisor with respect to Major Decisions under this Agreement.

(f)                With respect to each Serviced AB Whole Loan with respect to which the holder of any related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan is entitled under the related Co-Lender Agreement to avoid its applicable “control appraisal period” (or analogous concept) by posting cash or letter of credit as collateral (a “Threshold Event Collateral”), the Special Servicer shall administer any such Threshold Event Collateral in accordance with the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement. Any Threshold Event Collateral posted by a Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan Holder shall be held in an outside reserve fund which shall not be an asset of any Trust REMIC, and the party that posted such Threshold Event Collateral shall be the owner of such outside reserve fund, all within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h). Upon a Final Recovery Determination with respect to any such Serviced AB Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall transfer any related Threshold Event Collateral held in the form of cash (or, if the related Threshold Event Collateral is a letter of credit, the proceeds of such Threshold Event Collateral) to the related Whole Loan Custodial Account, which such transferred amount shall be treated as Liquidation Proceeds and applied in accordance with the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement and Section 3.06A of this Agreement.

(g)               The Master Servicer shall maintain a register (the “Serviced Companion Loan Holder Register”) with respect to each Serviced Companion Loan on which the Master Servicer shall record the names and addresses of, and wire transfer instructions for, the Serviced Companion Loan Holders from time to time, to the extent such information is provided in writing to the Master Servicer by a Serviced Companion Loan Holder. The name and address of each initial Serviced Companion Loan Holder as of the Closing Date is set forth on Exhibit NN hereto. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the information delivered by any Serviced Companion Loan Holder until it receives notice of transfer or of any change in information.

In the event that a Serviced Companion Loan Holder transfers the related Serviced Companion Loan without notice to the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall have no liability

- 319 -

whatsoever for any misdirected payment on such Serviced Companion Loan and shall have no obligation to recover and redirect such payment.

The Master Servicer shall promptly provide the names and addresses of any Serviced Companion Loan Holder to any party hereto, any related Companion Loan Note Holder or any successor thereto upon written request, and any such Person may, without further investigation, conclusively rely upon such information. The Master Servicer shall have no liability to any Person for the provision of any such names and addresses.

For the avoidance of doubt, any notices or information required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement by any party hereto to a Serviced Companion Loan Holder with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan that has been included in an Other Securitization Trust shall be provided to the Other Servicer under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

The Operating Advisor Annual Report shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit R of this Agreement (which form may be modified or altered as to either its organization or content by the Operating Advisor, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in the Operating Advisor Annual Report contravene any provision of this Agreement). The Operating Advisor Annual Report shall set forth the Operating Advisor’s assessment of the Special Servicer’s performance of its duties under this Agreement during the prior calendar year.

respectively; provided, however, that the Operating Advisor shall deliver to the Special Servicer, the applicable Directing Holder and the Controlling Class Representative (at any time that it is an applicable Directing Holder or Consulting Party), any annual report produced by the Operating Advisor at least ten (10) calendar days prior to its delivery to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. The Operating Advisor may, but shall not be obligated to, revise the Operating Advisor Annual Report based on any comments received from the Special Servicer or the Controlling Class Representative. In the event the Special Servicer is replaced during the prior calendar year, the Operating Advisor shall only be required to prepare an Operating Advisor Annual Report relating to each entity that was acting as Special Servicer as of December 31 of the prior calendar year and is continuing in such capacity through the date of such Operating Advisor Annual Report. In preparing an Operating Advisor Annual Report, the Operator Advisor is not required to report on instances of non-compliance with, or deviations from, the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement that the Operating Advisor determines, in accordance the Operating Advisor Standard, to be immaterial. In connection with the Operating Advisor Annual Report and the reviews provided for above in this Section 3.29, the Operating Advisor shall perform its review on the basis of the Special Servicer’s performance of its duties with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event with respect to Major Decisions on any applicable Performing Serviced Loans, as well as the extent to which those duties were performed in accordance with the Servicing Standard, with reasonable consideration by the Operating Advisor of any annual compliance statement, any assessment of compliance and any attestation report delivered to the Operating Advisor pursuant to Section 10.08, Section 10.09 and Section 10.10 of this Agreement, as applicable, or made available to the Operating Advisor on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, any Asset Status Report, any Major Decision Reporting Package and other information (other than any communications between the applicable Directing Holder, any Risk Retention Consultation Party or any Serviced Companion Loan Holder (or its Companion Loan Holder Representative), as applicable, and the Special Servicer that would be Privileged Information) that the Operating Advisor is required to review on the Certificate Administrator’s Website or that is prepared by the Special Servicer and delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor pursuant to this Agreement.

(f)                After the calculation but prior to the utilization by the Special Servicer of any of the calculations with respect to an applicable Specially Serviced Loan related to (i) Appraisal Reduction Amounts, (ii) Collateral Deficiency Amounts or (iii) net present value used in the Special Servicer’s determination of the course of action to be taken in connection with the workout or liquidation of such Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall forward such calculations, together with any supporting material or additional information in the Special Servicer’s possession or reasonably obtainable by the Special Servicer necessary in support thereof (including such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor (that is in the Special Servicer's possession or reasonably obtainable by the Special Servicer) to confirm the mathematical accuracy of such calculations, but not including any Privileged Information), to the Operating Advisor promptly, but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after preparing such calculations, and the Operating Advisor shall promptly, but no later than five (5) Business Days after receipt of such calculations and any supporting or additional materials, recalculate and verify the accuracy of the mathematical calculations and the corresponding application of the non-discretionary portion of the applicable formulas required to be utilized in connection with any such calculation.

- 323 -

In connection with this Section 3.29(f), in the event the Operating Advisor does not agree with the mathematical calculations in any material respect or does not agree with the application of the non-discretionary portions of the applicable formulas required to be utilized for such calculation, the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer shall consult with each other in order to resolve any inaccuracy in the mathematical calculations or the application of the non-discretionary portions of the applicable formulas in arriving at those mathematical calculations or any disagreement within five (5) Business Days of delivery of such calculations to the Operating Advisor. In the event the Operating Advisor and Special Servicer are not able to resolve such inaccuracies or disagreement prior to the end of such five (5) Business Day period, the Operating Advisor shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of such disagreement and the Certificate Administrator shall determine which calculation is to apply. In making such determination, the Certificate Administrator may hire an independent third-party to assist with any such calculation at the expense of the Trust Fund.

(g)               After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, the Operating Advisor shall consult (on a non-binding basis) with the Special Servicer in connection with (i) any Major Decision with respect to a Serviced Loan in accordance with Section 3.24, Section 6.09(a) and this Section 3.29, (ii) each Asset Status Report in accordance with Section 3.21, and (iii) the matters set forth in, and in accordance with, Section 3.09 and Section 3.17(m), and in each case, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall consider any alternative courses of action and any other feedback provided by the Operating Advisor. In connection with the Operating Advisor’s obligation to consult (on a non-binding basis) with the Special Servicer with respect to Asset Status Report in accordance with Section 3.21, the Operating Advisor shall propose, by written notice, alternative courses of action within 10 Business Days of receipt of each Asset Status Report to the extent the Operating Advisor determines such alternatives to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders (including any Certificateholders that were previously included in the Control Eligible Classes) and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner constituted a single lender.

(h)               Subject to the requirements of confidentiality imposed on the Operating Advisor herein (including without limitation in respect of Privileged Information), the Operating Advisor shall respond to Inquiries relating to the Operating Advisor Annual Reports or actions by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as to which the Operating Advisor has consultation rights, whether or not referenced in any Operating Advisor Annual Report and made by Privileged Persons from time to time in accordance with the terms of Section 4.02(a) of this Agreement.

(i)                 Subject to the Privileged Information Exception, the Operating Advisor will be obligated to keep confidential any Privileged Information received from the Special Servicer, the applicable Directing Holder, any Risk Retention Consultation Party or any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder (or its Companion Loan Holder Representative) in connection with the exercise of the rights of the applicable Directing Holder, such Risk Retention Consultation Party or such related Serviced Companion Loan Holder under this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with the review and/or approval of any Asset Status Report), subject to any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree requiring the disclosure of such Privileged Information.

- 324 -

(j)                 The Operating Advisor shall keep all Privileged Information confidential and shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners, other than the Controlling Class Representative or a Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative), other than (1) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement, to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information, (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception or (3) when necessary to support, and directly related to, specific findings or conclusions (i) in the Operating Advisor Annual Report or (ii) in connection with a recommendation by the Operating Advisor for the replacement of the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor, solely to the extent required in connection with its duties under this Agreement, will be permitted to share Privileged Information with its Affiliates and any subcontractors of the Operating Advisor provided such Affiliates and subcontractors of the Operating Advisor agree in writing prior to their receipt of such Privileged Information to be bound by the same confidentiality provisions applicable to the Operating Advisor described in this Agreement and a copy of such agreement is provided to the parties hereto. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Operating Advisor with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and, as applicable, any related Outside Controlling Note Holder (if a Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan is involved), the Risk Retention Consultation Parties and/or, unless a Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Controlling Class Representative other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception.

(k)               On each Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Operating Advisor shall be paid the applicable Operating Advisor Fee accrued on the Mortgage Loans from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.06 of this Agreement, and the applicable Operating Advisor Fee accrued on a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan from collections on such Mortgage Loan or any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, on deposit in the related Whole Loan Custodial Account, pursuant to Section 3.06(A) of this Agreement.

(xxiv)        Twenty-Fourth, to the Holders of the Class G-RR Certificates, up to an amount equal to the aggregate of unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class, plus interest thereon at the Pass-Through Rate for such Class compounded monthly from the date each related Realized Loss was allocated to such Class;

(xxvii)     Twenty-Seventh, to the Holders of the Class J-RR Certificates, up to an amount equal to the aggregate of unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class, plus interest thereon at the Pass-Through Rate for such Class compounded monthly from the date each related Realized Loss was allocated to such Class; and

(xxviii)   Last, to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Upper-Tier Residual Interest, in the amount of any remaining portion of the Non-Vertically Retained Available Funds for such Distribution Date on deposit in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Distribution Date occurring on and after the Cross-Over Date, in place of the allocation of principal payments described in clause (ii) above, remaining Non-Vertically Retained Available Funds at such level shall be distributed up to an amount equal to the Principal Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date to the respective Holders of Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Certificates, pro rata, based on their respective Certificate Balances, in reduction of their respective Certificate Balances. Any remaining Non-Vertically Retained Available Funds will then be allocated as provided in clauses (iii) through (xxviii) above.

All distributions of interest made in respect of a Class of the Class X Certificates on any Distribution Date pursuant to this Section 4.01(b), shall be deemed to have been made: (x) if there is only one Component of such Class, in respect of such Component; and (y) if there are multiple Components of such Class, in respect of all such Components, pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts of interest that would be payable on such Components on such Distribution Date based on one-twelfth of the Class X Strip Rate of each such Component multiplied by its respective Component Notional Amount, reduced by its share of any Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfall with respect to the Mortgage Pool for such Distribution Date, together with any amounts thereof remaining unpaid from previous Distribution Dates.

(c)               On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw from the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account the amounts on deposit therein, to the extent of the Combined VRR Available Funds for such Distribution Date, and shall distribute such amounts to the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, the Holders of the Class VRR Certificates and the Holders of the Class R Certificates for the following purposes and in the following order of priority:

(i)                    First, distributions of interest to the Holders of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, pro rata based on the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, respectively, up to an aggregate amount equal to the VRR Interest Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date;

(ii)                 Second, distributions of principal to the Holders of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, pro rata based on the Certificate

- 336 -

Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, respectively, in reduction of such Certificate Balance and Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, up to an aggregate amount equal to the VRR Principal Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date, until the Combined VRR Interest Balance has been reduced to zero; and

(iii)               Third, reimbursements (with interest) of prior write-offs of the Combined VRR Interest Balance to the Holders of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, pro rata based on the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, respectively, up to an aggregate amount equal to the unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to the Combined VRR Interest, plus interest in an aggregate amount equal to the VRR Realized Loss Interest Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date;

provided that, with respect to any Distribution Date, to the extent that the Combined VRR Available Funds for such Distribution Date exceeds the distributions to the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner and the Holders of the Class VRR Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the immediately preceding clauses (i) through (iii), the Certificate Administrator shall distribute such excess to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Upper-Tier Residual Interest.

The right to payment of Holders of the Class VRR Certificates is pro rata and pari passu with the right to payment of the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner. On each Distribution Date, any Combined VRR Available Funds, any Appraisal Reduction Amounts, Yield Maintenance Charges, Prepayment Interest Shortfalls, and Excess Interest allocated to the Combined VRR Interest shall be allocated to the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest pro rata (based on the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, respectively). In addition, any applicable Realized Losses allocated to the Combined VRR Interest shall be allocated between the Class VRR Certificates, on the one hand, and the Uncertificated VRR Interest, on the other hand, pro rata in accordance with the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, respectively.

For avoidance of doubt, no Class VRR Certificates or Uncertificated VRR Interest shall be issued and, accordingly, no amounts shall be allocable to the Class VRR Certificates or the Uncertificated VRR Interest pursuant to this Section 4.01(c).

(d)               On each Distribution Date, until the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates and the Certificate Balances of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates have been reduced to zero, amounts on deposit in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account that represent the Non-Vertically Retained Percentage of each Yield Maintenance Charge (such portion of any Yield Maintenance Charge, a “Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charge”) collected on the Mortgage Loans during the related Collection Period (or, in the case of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan(s), that accompanied a Principal Prepayment included in the Aggregate Available Funds for such Distribution Date) shall be distributed by the Certificate Administrator to the Holders of the respective Classes of Non-Vertically Retained Regular Certificates (excluding the

- 337 -

Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates) as follows: (A) first such Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charge shall be allocated between (i) the group (the “YM Group A”) comprised of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3 and Class X-A Certificates, (ii) the group (the “YM Group A-S/B/C") comprised of the Class A-S, Class B, Class C and Class X-B Certificates, and (iii) the group (the “YM Group D/E” and, collectively with the YM Group A and the YM Group A-S/B/C, the “YM Groups”) comprised of the Class D, Class E and Class X-D Certificates, pro rata based on the aggregate amount of principal distributed with respect to the Class or Classes of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates in each YM Group on such Distribution Date, and (B) then, the portion of such Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charge allocated to each YM Group shall be further allocated as among the Classes of Non-Vertically Retained Regular Certificates in such YM Group, in the following manner: (1) each Class of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates in such YM Group shall entitle the applicable Certificateholders to receive on the applicable Distribution Date that portion of such Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charge equal to the product of (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount distributed as principal to such Class of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates on such Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all of the Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates in such YM Group on such Distribution Date, (y) except in the case of any YM Group comprised solely of a Class or Classes of Principal Balance Certificates (for each of which Classes the value of this clause (y) is one (1)), the Base Interest Fraction for the related Principal Prepayment and such Class of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates and (z) the portion of such Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charge allocated to such YM Group; and (2) the portion of such Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charge allocated to such YM Group on any Distribution Date and remaining after such distributions with respect to the Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates contemplated by the preceding clause (1) shall be distributed to the Class of Class X Certificates (if any) in such YM Group. If there is more than one Class of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates in any YM Group entitled to distributions of principal on any particular Distribution Date on which Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charges collected on the Mortgage Loans are distributable to such Classes, then the aggregate portion of such Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charges allocated to such YM Group shall be allocated among all such Classes of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates up to, and on a pro rata basis in accordance with, their respective entitlements in those Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charges in accordance with the preceding sentence.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.01(d), on each Distribution Date after the Class X-A Notional Amount, the Class X-B Notional Amount and the Class X-D Notional Amount and the Certificate Balances of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates have been reduced to zero, all amounts on deposit in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account that represent Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charges collected on the Mortgage Loans during the related Collection Period (or, in the case of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan(s), that accompanied a Principal Prepayment included in the Aggregate Available Funds for such Distribution Date) shall be distributed by the Certificate Administrator to the Holders of the Class F, Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates (collectively, the “Subordinate YM Certificates”) as follows: each such Class of Subordinate YM Certificates shall entitle the applicable Certificateholders to receive on the applicable Distribution Date that portion of such Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance

- 338 -

Charge equal to the product of (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount distributed as principal to such Class of Subordinate YM Certificates on such Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all of the Subordinate YM Certificates on such Distribution Date, multiplied by (y) the total amount of Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charges to be distributed on such Distribution Date. If there is more than one Class of Subordinate YM Certificates entitled to distributions of principal on any particular Distribution Date on which the Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charges are distributable to such Classes, then the aggregate amount of such Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charges shall be allocated among all such Classes of Subordinate YM Certificates entitled to distributions of principal up to, and on a pro rata basis in accordance with, their respective entitlements in those Non-Vertically Retained Yield Maintenance Charges in accordance with the preceding sentence of this paragraph.

On each Distribution Date, amounts on deposit in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account that represent the Vertically Retained Percentage of each Yield Maintenance Charge collected on the Mortgage Loans during the related Collection Period (or, in the case of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan(s), that accompanied a Principal Prepayment included in the Aggregate Available Funds for such Distribution Date) shall be distributed by the Certificate Administrator to the Holders of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, pro rata based on the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, respectively.

On any Distribution Date, any Yield Maintenance Charges collected in respect of a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan during the related Collection Period shall be distributed by the Certificate Administrator to the related Loan-Specific Certificateholders and any related Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest Owner.

Any portion of a Yield Maintenance Charge that is distributed to Holders of the Non-Vertically Retained Regular Certificates on any Distribution Date shall (i) in the case of a Yield Maintenance Charge with respect to a Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan, be deemed to have first been distributed from the related Loan REMIC to the Lower-Tier REMIC in respect of the related Loan REMIC Regular Interest, and then from the Lower-Tier REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests (exclusive of the Class LVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest and the LUVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest) then receiving a principal distribution, pro rata, based on the respective amounts of those principal distributions, and (ii) in the case of a Yield Maintenance Charge with respect to a Mortgage Loan other than a Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan, be deemed to have first been distributed from the Lower-Tier REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests (exclusive of the Class LVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest and the LUVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest) then receiving a principal distribution, pro rata, based on the respective amounts of those principal distributions. Any portion of a Yield Maintenance Charge that is distributed to the Holders of the Class VRR Certificates or the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner on any Distribution Date shall (i) in the case of a Yield Maintenance Charge with respect to a Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan, be deemed to have first been distributed from the related Loan REMIC to the Lower-Tier REMIC in respect of the related Loan REMIC Regular Interest, and then from the Lower-Tier REMIC to the

- 339 -

Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of the Class LVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest and the LUVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest pro rata based on their respective Lower-Tier Principal Balances, and (ii) in the case of a Yield Maintenance Charge with respect to a Mortgage Loan other than a Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan, be deemed to have first been distributed from the Lower-Tier REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of the Class LVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest and the LUVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest pro rata based on their respective Lower-Tier Principal Balances. Any portion of a Yield Maintenance Charge that is distributed in respect of any Class of related Loan-Specific Certificates (and, in the case of a Class of Loan-Specific Interest-Only Certificates, allocable to any particular Loan-Specific Component) or any related Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest on any Distribution Date shall be deemed to have first been distributed from the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of its Corresponding Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interest set forth in the Preliminary Statement hereto.

(e)               On each Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Certificate Administrator shall determine if the Non-Vertically Retained Available Funds for such Distribution Date (determined without regard to the inclusion of any Excess Liquidation Proceeds therein) would be sufficient to pay all interest and principal due and owing to, and to reimburse (with interest thereon) all previously allocated applicable Realized Losses reimbursable to, the Holders of the Non-Vertically Retained Regular Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(b). If the Certificate Administrator determines that such Non-Vertically Retained Available Funds (as so determined) would not be sufficient to make such payments and reimbursements, then the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw from the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on the applicable Master Servicer Remittance Date an amount (to be included in the Aggregate Available Funds for the related Distribution Date for allocation between the Combined VRR Interest and the Non-Vertically Retained Regular Certificates) equal to the lesser of (i) all amounts then on deposit in the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and (ii) the sum of (A) the amount of the applicable insufficiency in such Non-Vertically Retained Available Funds and (B) the VRR Allocation Percentage of the amount described in the immediately preceding sub-clause (A). The Certificate Administrator may also withdraw funds from the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account in order to make distributions to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in accordance with the last sentence of Section 3.05(c) of this Agreement.

(f)                On each Distribution Date, following all distributions to be made on such date, the Certificate Balance of each Class of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates shall be reduced without distribution, as a write-off, to the extent of any applicable Realized Loss allocated to such Class of Certificates, on such Distribution Date. On each Distribution Date, any applicable Realized Loss with respect to the Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates for such Distribution Date shall be allocated to the following Classes of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates in the following order, until the Certificate Balance of each such Class of Certificates is reduced to zero: first, to the Class J-RR Certificates; second, to the Class G-RR Certificates; third, to the Class F Certificates; fourth, to the Class E Certificates; fifth, to the Class D Certificates; sixth, to the Class C Certificates; seventh, to the Class B Certificates; eighth, to the Class A-S Certificates; and finally, pro rata to the (i) Class A-1 Certificates, (ii) Class A-2 Certificates and (iii) Class A-3 Certificates based on their respective Certificate Balances.

- 340 -

On each Distribution Date, following all distributions to be made on such date, any applicable Realized Loss for such Distribution Date shall be allocated to the Combined VRR Interest in reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance of the Uncertificated VRR Interest (pro rata based on the relative sizes thereof) without distribution, as a write-off, to the extent of such applicable Realized Loss, until the Combined VRR Interest Balance is reduced to zero.

On each Distribution Date, following the deemed distributions of principal or in reimbursement (with interest) of previously allocated applicable Realized Losses deemed made in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(ii), the Lower-Tier Principal Balance of each Lower-Tier Regular Interest (after taking account of such deemed distributions) shall be deemed reduced as a result of applicable Realized Losses to equal the Certificate Balance of its Corresponding Certificates (or, in the case of the LUVRR Lower-Tier Regular Interest, the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance of the Uncertificated VRR Interest) that will be outstanding immediately following such Distribution Date.

The Notional Amount of the Class X-A Certificates and the Component Notional Amounts of the Class X-A Components will be reduced to reflect reductions of the Certificate Balances of the Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Certificates and of the Lower-Tier Principal Balances of the Class LA-1, Class LA-2 and Class LA-3 Lower-Tier Regular Interests, in any event resulting from allocations of applicable Realized Losses. The Notional Amount of the Class X-B Certificates and the Component Notional Amounts of the Class X-B Components will be reduced to reflect reductions of the Certificate Balances of the Class A-S, Class B and Class C Certificates and of the Lower-Tier Principal Balances of the Class LA-S, Class LB and Class LC Lower-Tier Regular Interests, in any event resulting from allocations of applicable Realized Losses. The Notional Amount of the Class X-D Certificates and the Component Notional Amount of the Class X-D Component will be reduced to reflect reductions of the Certificate Balances of the Class D and Class E Certificates and of the Lower-Tier Principal Balances of the Class LD and Class LE Lower-Tier Regular Interests, in any event resulting from allocations of applicable Realized Losses. The Notional Amount of the Class X-F Certificates and the Component Notional Amount of the Class X-F Component will be reduced to reflect reductions of the Certificate Balance of the Class F Certificates and of the Lower-Tier Principal Balance of the Class LF Lower-Tier Regular Interest, in any event resulting from allocations of applicable Realized Losses.

The Certificate Balance or Uncertificated Interest Balance, as applicable, of each Class of Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates and Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest relating to a particular Trust Subordinate Companion Loan shall be reduced without distribution on any Distribution Date, as a write off, to the extent of any applicable Realized Loss allocated to such Class of Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates or Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest, as the case may be, on such Distribution Date. [SPECIFICS OF ALLOCATIONS OF APPLICABLE REALIZED LOSSES TO LOAN-SPECIFIC PRINCIPAL BALANCE CERTIFICATES AND LOAN-SPECIFIC UNCERTIFICATED INTERESTS RESERVED.]

On each Distribution Date, following the deemed distributions of principal or in reimbursement of previously allocated applicable Realized Losses deemed made in respect of the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC Regular Interests pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(iii), the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Principal Balance of each Trust Subordinate Companion Loan

- 341 -

REMIC Regular Interest (after taking account of such deemed distributions) shall be deemed reduced as a result of applicable Realized Losses allocated to its Corresponding Certificates, to equal the Certificate Balance or Uncertificated Interest Balance, as applicable, of its Corresponding Certificates that will be outstanding immediately following such Distribution Date.

(g)               Distributions in reimbursement of applicable Realized Losses previously allocated to the respective Classes of the Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates and deemed distributions in reimbursement of applicable Realized Losses previously allocated to the Combined VRR Interest shall be made in the amounts and manner specified in Section 4.01(b) or Section 4.01(c), as applicable. If and to the extent that any Nonrecoverable Advances (plus interest thereon) that were reimbursed from principal collections on the Mortgage Loans (including REO Mortgage Loans) and previously resulted in a reduction of the Aggregate Principal Distribution Amount are subsequently recovered on the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property, then (on the Distribution Date related to the Collection Period during which the recovery occurred): (i) the Non-Vertically Retained Percentage of the amount of such recovery will be added to the Certificate Balance(s) of the Class or Classes of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates that previously were allocated applicable Realized Losses, in the same sequential order as distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(b) Error! Reference source not found.of this Agreement, in each case up to the lesser of (A) the unallocated portion of the Non-Vertically Retained Percentage of the amount of such recovery and (B) the amount of the unreimbursed applicable Realized Losses previously allocated to the subject Class of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates, and the Interest Shortfall Carry-Forward with respect to each affected Class of Non-Vertically Retained Regular Certificates for the next Distribution Date will be increased by the aggregate amount of interest that would have accrued through the then current Distribution Date if the restored write-down for such reimbursed Class of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates had never been written down; and (ii) the Vertically Retained Percentage of the amount of such recovery will be added to the Combined VRR Interest Balance of the Combined VRR Interest (with such increase allocable between the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, pro rata based on the relative sizes thereof) up to the lesser of (A) the Vertically Retained Percentage of the amount of such recovery and (B) the amount of the unreimbursed applicable Realized Losses previously allocated to the Combined VRR Interest, and the interest payable on the Combined VRR Interest will be deemed increased by the VRR Allocation Percentage of any contemporaneous increases in interest payable on the Non-Vertically Retained Regular Certificates pursuant to clause (i) of this sentence (which such increase shall accordingly be allocated to the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest pro rata, based on the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, respectively). To the extent that the Certificate Balance of, and/or any interest payable on, any Class of Regular Certificates or any Component thereof (or the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance of, and/or any interest payable on, the Uncertificated VRR Interest) is so increased or deemed increased, an identical increase shall be deemed made to the Lower-Tier Principal Balance of, and any interest payable on, the Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest. If the Certificate Balance of any Class of Principal Balance Certificates (or the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance of the Uncertificated VRR Interest or the Lower-Tier Principal Balance of any Lower-Tier Regular Interest) is so increased, the amount of unreimbursed applicable Realized Losses in respect of such Class of Principal Balance Certificates (or the Uncertificated VRR Interest or such Lower-Tier Regular Interest), as the case may be, shall be decreased by such amount, and any interest accrued

- 342 -

on the amount of unreimbursed applicable Realized Losses so decreased shall be deemed not to exist.

Distributions in reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to the Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates and any Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interests relating to a particular Trust Subordinate Companion Loan shall be made in the amounts and manner specified in Section 4.01(n) or Section 4.01(o), as applicable.

(h)               All amounts distributable, or reductions allocable on account of applicable Realized Losses, to a Class of Trust Certificates pursuant to this Section 4.01 on each Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Trust Certificates in each such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. All distributions on each Class of Trust Certificates or the Uncertificated Interests pursuant to this Section 4.01 shall be made by the Certificate Administrator on each Distribution Date other than the Termination Date to each related Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner of record at the close of business on the related Record Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate or Uncertificated Interest shall be made in like manner, but in the case of a Trust Certificate, only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate, and in the case of an Uncertificated Interest, only upon delivery of a written instrument acknowledging surrender of and final distribution on such Uncertificated Interest, at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders or Uncertificated Interest Owners, as applicable, of the pendency of the final distribution. The Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for making all distributions on the Trust Certificates and the Uncertificated Interests contemplated hereunder.

(i)                 Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01 with respect to an Anticipated Termination Date, the Certificate Administrator shall, no later than the fifteenth day of the month preceding the month in which the final distribution with respect to any Class of Trust Certificates or any Uncertificated Interest is expected to be made (or, if the Certificate Administrator has not received notice of such Anticipated Termination Date by such time, promptly following the Certificate Administrator’s receipt of such notice), mail to each Holder of such Class of Trust Certificates and each related Uncertificated Interest Owner, on such date a notice to the effect that:

(i)                    the Certificate Administrator reasonably expects based upon information previously provided to it that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Trust Certificates or such Uncertificated Interest will be made on such Distribution Date, but in the case of Trust Certificates only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificates, and in the case of an Uncertificated Interest, only upon delivery of a written instrument acknowledging surrender of and final distribution on such Uncertificated Interest, at the office of the Certificate Administrator therein specified, and

- 343 -

(ii)                 if such final distribution is made on such Distribution Date, no interest shall accrue on such Class of Trust Certificates or such Uncertificated Interest, or on the Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest or Corresponding Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interest, as applicable, from and after such Distribution Date; provided, however, that the Class R Certificates shall remain outstanding until there is no other Class of Trust Certificates outstanding.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Trust Certificates of such Class or to any Uncertificated Interest Owner on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Trust Certificates or the failure of such Uncertificated Interest Owner to deliver the instrument contemplated in clause (i) of the first paragraph of this Section 4.01(i) shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust for the benefit of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders or Uncertificated Interest Owner(s). If any Trust Certificates or Uncertificated Interest as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(i) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six (6) months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Trust Certificateholders or Uncertificated Interest Owner(s) to surrender their Trust Certificates or Uncertificated Interest(s) for cancellation to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice not all of such Trust Certificates and Uncertificated Interest(s) shall have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Trust Certificateholders or Uncertificated Interest Owner(s) concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates or Uncertificated Interest(s). The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Trust Certificateholders or Uncertificated Interest Owner(s) shall be paid out of such funds. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any such Trust Certificates or Uncertificated Interest(s) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Certificate Administrator all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof or the Uncertificated Interest Owner(s), as applicable, and the Certificate Administrator shall thereafter hold such amounts for the benefit of such Holders or Uncertificated Interest Owner(s) until the earlier of (i) its termination as Certificate Administrator hereunder and the transfer of such amounts to a successor Certificate Administrator and (ii) the termination of the Trust Fund and distribution of such amounts to the Class R Certificateholders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder or any Uncertificated Interest Owner on any amount held in trust hereunder or by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) or such Uncertificated Interest Owner’s failure to surrender its Uncertificated Interest, as applicable, for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(i). Any funds not distributed on such Distribution Date shall be set aside and held uninvested in trust for the benefit of Trust Certificateholders or Uncertificated Interest Owner(s) not presenting and surrendering their Trust Certificates or Uncertificated Interest(s), as applicable, in the aforesaid manner.

(j)                 The Non-Vertically Retained Percentage of the Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfall, if any, with respect to the Mortgage Pool for each Distribution Date will be allocated among the various Classes of Non-Vertically Retained Regular Certificates, pro rata, based upon the respective Interest Accrual Amounts with respect to such Classes of Non-Vertically Retained Regular Certificates for such Distribution Date, and the Vertically Retained Percentage of the

- 344 -

Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfall, if any, for each Distribution Date will be deemed allocated to the Combined VRR Interest (and will, in turn, be deemed allocated to the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest, pro rata, based on the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, respectively). The portion of any such Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfall for any Distribution Date so allocable to a Class of Class X Certificates shall, in turn, be allocated among the various Components of such Class of Class X Certificates, pro rata, based upon the respective amounts of Accrued Component Interest with respect to such Components for such Distribution Date. The portion of any such Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfall for any Distribution Date so allocated to any Class of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates, the Class VRR Certificates, the Uncertificated VRR Interest or any Component of a Class of Class X Certificates shall be deemed to have first been allocated to the Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest for such Class of Non-Vertically Retained Principal Balance Certificates, the Class VRR Certificates, the Uncertificated VRR Interest or such Component, as applicable.

Any Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfall with respect to a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan for any Distribution Date will be allocated to the related Loan-Specific Certificates and deemed allocated to any related Uncertificated Interest. [SPECIFICS OF ALLOCATIONS OF APPLICABLE EXCESS PREPAYMENT INTEREST SHORTFALLS TO LOAN-SPECIFIC CERTIFICATES AND RELATED UNCERTIFICATED INTERESTS RESERVED.] The portion of any such Excess Prepayment Interest Shortfall with respect to a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan for any Distribution Date so allocated to a related Class of Loan-Specific Certificates or deemed allocated to a related Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest shall be deemed to have first been allocated to the Corresponding Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interest for such Class of Loan-Specific Certificates or Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest, as applicable.

(k)               On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw from the Excess Interest Distribution Account any amounts on deposit therein that represent Excess Interest received during the related Collection Period (or, in the case of an ARD Mortgage Loan that is an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, received as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Master Servicer Remittance Date and not previously distributed) with respect to the ARD Mortgage Loans and shall distribute such Excess Interest: (i) to the Holders of the Class S Certificates in an amount equal to the Non-Vertically Retained Percentage of such Excess Interest; and (ii) to the Holders of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, pro rata based on the Certificate Balance of the Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Balance, respectively, in an amount equal to the Vertically Retained Percentage of such Excess Interest.

(l)                 The various amounts distributable on any Class of Trust Certificates on any Distribution Date pursuant to multiple subsections of, or multiple clauses of any subsection of, this Section 4.01 shall be so distributed in a single, aggregate distribution to the Holders of such Class of Trust Certificates on such Distribution Date.

(m)             A Loan REMIC Regular Interest’s share of all payments made on the related Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan (other than any Excess Interest, Default Interest and amounts distributable to the related Loan REMIC Residual Interest in accordance with the related REMIC

- 345 -

Declaration) shall be deemed to be paid at the time payments are made under the related Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan (in the case of interest, at the Mortgage Rate of such Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan) and then deposited in the Lower-Tier REMIC before payments are made to the Trustee as Holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, and shall be treated as principal, interest and Yield Maintenance Charges, as the case may be, based on these characterizations with respect to such Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan (or related REO Property), except where expressly noted and, in addition, any payment of principal on or reduction in the Stated Principal Balance of such Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan shall reduce the principal balance of the related Loan REMIC Regular Interest. Any portion of the Aggregate Available Funds attributable to such Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan on deposit in the Collection Account after giving effect to withdrawals of funds pursuant to Section 3.06(a)(i) through Section 3.06(a)(x) (other than any referenced deposit to the Loan REMIC Residual Distribution Account) shall be distributable to the Class R Certificates in respect of amounts distributed on the Loan REMIC Residual Interest from the Loan REMIC Residual Distribution Account. Servicing Fees, Trustee/Certificate Administrator Fees and Operating Advisor Fees with respect to any Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan shall be deemed paid by the Lower-Tier REMIC in determining the Net Mortgage Rate of the related Loan REMIC Regular Interest, and all other servicing compensation or unanticipated expenses with respect to such Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor shall be deemed payable by the related Loan REMIC. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trust Fund will not include any Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan or Loan REMIC as of the Closing Date, and there will be no REMIC Declaration, Loan REMIC Regular Interest and Loan REMIC Residual Interest with respect to the Trust and no REMIC Residual Distribution Account shall be established. Accordingly, all references in this Agreement to “Loan REMIC”, “Loan REMIC Held Mortgage Loan”, “Loan REMIC Regular Interest”, “Loan REMIC Residual Interest” and “REMIC Residual Distribution Account “ shall be disregarded.

None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator shall be liable for any communication to the Controlling Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder or disclosure of Excluded Information if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, did not receive prior written notice that the related Mortgage Loan is an Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan (including, in the case of the summary of any Asset Status Report or the summary of any Final Asset Status Report delivered to the Certificate Administrator for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website and/or any failure to label any such information provided to the Certificate Administrator).

To the extent the Controlling Class Representative or a Controlling Class Certificateholder receives access pursuant to this Agreement to any Excluded Information with respect to a related Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan on the Certificate Administrator’s Website or otherwise receives access to such Excluded Information, such Controlling Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder shall be deemed to have agreed that it (i) will not directly or indirectly provide any information related to the Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan to (A) any related Borrower Party, (B) any Excluded Controlling Class Holder, (C) any employees or personnel of such Controlling Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder, (D) any Affiliate involved in the management of any investment in any related Borrower Party or the related Mortgaged Property or (E) to its actual knowledge, any non-Affiliate that holds a direct or indirect ownership interest in any related Borrower Party, and (ii) will maintain sufficient internal controls and appropriate policies and procedures in place in order to comply with the obligations described in clause (i) above.

For the avoidance of doubt, any file or report contained in the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package (CREFC^® IRP) (other than the CREFC^® Special Servicer Loan File relating to any such Excluded Mortgage Loan) shall be considered information that is aggregated with information of other Mortgage Loans at a pool level.

The Master Servicer may make available to Privileged Persons copies of any reports or files prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Agreement. The Master Servicer may make information concerning the Mortgage Loans or Serviced Whole Loans available on any website that it has established.

With respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver information comparable to the above-described information to the extent received from the related Outside Servicer or the related Outside Special Servicer, as applicable, to the same Persons as described above in this Section 4.02(c) and according to the same time frames as described above in this Section 4.02(c), with reasonable promptness following such Master Servicer’s receipt of such information from the related Outside Servicer under the related Outside Servicing Agreement.

Upon the reasonable request of (i) any Trust Certificateholder, Certificate Owner or Uncertificated Interest Owner that has delivered an appropriate Investor Certification or (ii) any other Privileged Person so identified by a Trust Certificateholder, a Certificate Owner, an Uncertificated Interest Owner or an Underwriter, the Master Servicer shall provide (or forward electronically) at the expense of such Privileged Person, Trust Certificateholder, Certificate Owner or Uncertificated Interest Owner, as applicable, copies of any appraisals, operating statements, rent rolls and financial statements obtained by the Master Servicer; provided that in no event shall an Excluded Controlling Class Holder be entitled to Excluded Information with respect to an Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan with respect to which it is a Borrower Party; and provided, further, that no Trust Certificateholders, Certificate Owners or Uncertificated Interest Owner shall be given access to or be provided copies of, any Mortgage Files or Diligence Files except, solely with respect to Mortgage Files, as otherwise provided in Section 8.11(b) of this Agreement. In connection with such request, the Master Servicer may require (1) a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer, generally to the effect that (a) such Person will keep such information confidential and will use such information only for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Trust Certificateholder, Certificate Owner or Uncertificated Interest Owner may have under this Agreement and (b) if the requesting party is neither a Trust Certificateholder nor a Certificate Owner and is not an Uncertificated Interest Owner, such Person is Privileged Person, and (2) payment of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and expenses of providing copies of such reports or information (which amounts in any event are not reimbursable as Additional Trust Fund Expenses), except that, other than for extraordinary or duplicate requests, any Directing Holder or Consulting Party (other than the holder of a Serviced Companion Loan held outside the Trust or its representative) will be entitled to reports and information free of charge.

(e)               Upon the reasonable request of the Controlling Class Representative or any Controlling Class Certificateholder that, in either case, is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to any Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan identified to the Master Servicer’s (in the case of a Performing Serviced Loan) or the Special Servicer’s (in the case of a Specially Serviced Loan) reasonable satisfaction (at the expense of the Controlling Class Representative or such Controlling Class Certificateholder) and if such information is in the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s possession, as applicable, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, shall provide or make available (or forward electronically) to the Controlling Class Representative or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, (at the expense of the Controlling Class Representative or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable) any Excluded Information (available to Privileged Persons through the Certificate Administrator’s Website but not accessible to the Controlling Class Representative or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, through the Certificate Administrator’s Website because the Controlling Class Representative or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to another Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan) relating to any Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan with respect to which the Controlling Class Representative or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, is not a Borrower Party; provided that, in connection therewith, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer may require a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, generally to the effect that such Person is the Controlling Class Representative or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, will keep such Excluded Information confidential and is not a Borrower Party, upon which the Master Servicer or Special Servicer may conclusively rely. In addition, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on delivery from the Controlling Class Representative or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit M-1C that such Controlling Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer referenced in this Section 4.02(e) shall include any applicable Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer with respect to the related Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan(s).

(f)                For the purposes of obtaining information and notices (including access to information and notices on the Certificate Administrator’s Website) pursuant to this Section 4.02, in the case of a Whole Loan with a related Directing Holder or Consulting Party (other than the Controlling Class Certificateholder and other than a Risk Retention Consultation Party), such

- 368 -

Directing Holder or Consulting Party, as applicable, shall also be required to certify in the applicable Investor Certification whether it is or is not a borrower party, borrower restricted party, restricted holder or any other analogous concept applicable to such party under the related Co-Lender Agreement, and references to “Borrower Party” shall also be deemed to refer to a “borrower party”, “borrower restricted party”, “restricted holder” or any other analogous concept under the related Co-Lender Agreement.

Section 4.03           Compliance With Withholding Requirements.

(a)               Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Paying Agent shall comply with all federal withholding requirements with respect to payments to Trust Certificateholders and Uncertificated Interest Owners of interest or original issue discount that the Paying Agent reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of Trust Certificateholders and/or Uncertificated Interest Owners shall not be required for any such withholding. In the event the Paying Agent or its agent withholds any amount from interest or original issue discount payments or advances thereof to any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owners pursuant to federal withholding requirements, the Paying Agent shall indicate the amount withheld to such Trust Certificateholder or such Uncertificated Interest Owner. Any amount so withheld shall be treated as having been distributed to such Trust Certificateholder or such Uncertificated Interest Owner for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b)               Each Certificate Owner, Trust Certificateholder and Uncertificated Interest Owner, by the purchase of a Trust Certificate or an Uncertificated Interest or its acceptance of a beneficial interest therein, acknowledges that interest on the Certificates and the Uncertificated Interest will be treated as United States source interest, and, as such, United States withholding tax may apply. Each such Certificate Owner, each such Trust Certificateholder and each such Uncertificated Interest Owner further agrees, upon request, to provide any certifications that may be required under applicable law, regulations or procedures to evidence its status for United States withholding tax purposes and understands that if it ceases to satisfy the foregoing requirements or provide requested documentation, payments to it under the Trust Certificates may be subject to United States withholding tax (without any corresponding gross-up). Without limiting the foregoing, if a payment made under this Agreement would be subject to United States federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if the recipient of such payment were to fail to comply with FATCA (including the requirements of Code Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b), as applicable), such recipient shall deliver to the Paying Agent, with a copy to each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, at the time or times prescribed by the Code and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Paying Agent or the Trustee, such documentation prescribed by the Code (including as prescribed by Code Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i)) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Paying Agent, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator to comply with their respective obligations under FATCA, to determine that such recipient has complied with such recipient’s obligations under FATCA, or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For these purposes, “FATCA” means Section 1471 through 1474 of the Code and any regulations or official interpretations thereof (including any revenue ruling, revenue procedure, notice or similar guidance issued by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service thereunder as a precondition to relief or exemption from taxes under such Sections, regulations and interpretations), any agreements entered into pursuant to Code Section 1471(b)(1), and including any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Section 4.04         REMIC Compliance.

(a)               The parties intend that each Trust REMIC shall constitute, and that the affairs of each Trust REMIC shall be conducted so as to qualify it as, a “real estate mortgage investment conduit” as defined in, and in accordance with, the REMIC Provisions, and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. In furtherance of such intention, the Certificate Administrator shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, act as agent, and is hereby appointed to act as agent, of each Trust REMIC and shall on behalf of each Trust REMIC: (i) prepare, timely deliver to the Trustee for execution (and the Trustee shall timely execute) and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all required Tax Returns for each Trust REMIC, using a calendar year as the taxable year for each Trust REMIC when and as required by the REMIC Provisions and other applicable federal, state or local income tax laws; (ii) make an election, on behalf of each Trust REMIC, to be treated as a REMIC on IRS Form 1066 for its first taxable year ending December 31, 2024, in accordance with the REMIC Provisions; (iii) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and forwarded, to the Trust Certificateholders (other than the Holders of the Class S Certificates), the Uncertificated Interest Owners and the IRS and applicable state and local tax authorities all information reports as and when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions of the Code; (iv) if the filing or distribution of any documents of an administrative nature not addressed in clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 4.04(a) is then required by the REMIC Provisions in order to maintain the status of each Trust REMIC as a REMIC or is otherwise required by the Code, prepare, sign and file or distribute, or cause to be prepared and signed and filed or distributed, such documents with or to such Persons when and as required by the REMIC Provisions or the Code or comparable provisions of state and local law; (v) obtain a taxpayer identification number for the Upper-Tier REMIC, each Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC, the Lower-Tier REMIC and, if applicable, the Loan REMIC on IRS Form SS-4, and, within thirty days of the Closing Date, furnish or cause to be furnished to the IRS, on IRS Form 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the Code, the name, title and address of the Person that the holders of the Trust Certificates and the Uncertificated Interest Owners may contact for tax information relating thereto (and the Certificate Administrator shall act as the representative of each Trust REMIC for this purpose; and the Trustee shall execute as needed the related IRS Form SS-4 and IRS Form 8811), together with such additional information as may be required by such IRS Form, and shall update such information at the time or times and in the manner required by the Code (and the Depositor agrees within 10 Business Days of the Closing Date to provide any information reasonably requested by the Master Servicer or the Certificate Administrator and necessary to make such filing); and (vi) maintain such records relating to each Trust REMIC as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information, such records, for federal income tax purposes, to be maintained on a calendar year and on an accrual basis. The Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for the preparation of the related IRS Form W-9, if such form is requested. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the information contained therein and is hereby directed to execute such IRS Form W-9.

The Certificate Administrator shall be the “partnership representative” of each Trust REMIC (within the meaning of Code Section 6223, to the extent such provision is applicable to the Trust REMICs). The Certificate Administrator shall make any elections allowed under the Code (i) to avoid the application of Section 6221 of the Code (or successor provision) to any Trust REMIC and (ii) to avoid payment by any Trust REMIC under Section 6225 of the Code of any

- 370 -

tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on any holder of any residual interest of any Trust REMIC, past or present. Each Holder of a Percentage Interest in the Class R Certificates, by acceptance thereof, is deemed to agree to any such elections and to the Certificate Administrator’s acting as “partnership representative” of each Trust REMIC that can be designated under the Code.

The Certificate Administrator shall not intentionally take any action or intentionally omit to take any action within its control and the scope of its duties if, in taking or omitting to take such action, the Certificate Administrator knows that such action or omission (as the case may be) would cause the termination of the REMIC status of a Trust REMIC or the imposition of tax on a Trust REMIC (other than a tax on income expressly permitted or contemplated to be received by the terms of this Agreement).

Notwithstanding any provision of this paragraph or the three preceding paragraphs to the contrary, the Certificate Administrator shall not be required to take any action that the Certificate Administrator in good faith believes to be inconsistent with any other provision of this Agreement, nor shall the Certificate Administrator be deemed in violation of this paragraph if it takes any action expressly required or authorized by any other provision of this Agreement, and the Certificate Administrator shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to any act or omission of the Depositor or the Master Servicer which does not enable the Certificate Administrator to comply with any of clauses (i) through (vi) of the third preceding paragraph or which results in any action contemplated by clauses (i) through (iii) of the next succeeding sentence. In this regard the Certificate Administrator shall (i) not allow the occurrence of any “prohibited transactions” within the meaning of Code Section 860F(a), unless the party seeking such action shall have delivered to the Certificate Administrator an Opinion of Counsel (at such party’s expense) that such occurrence would not (a) result in a taxable gain, (b) otherwise subject a Trust REMIC to tax (other than a tax at the corporate tax rate on net income from foreclosure property), or (c) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes; (ii) not allow a Trust REMIC to receive income from the performance of services or from assets not permitted under the REMIC Provisions to be held by such Trust REMIC (provided, however, that the receipt of any income expressly permitted or contemplated by the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed to violate this clause); and (iii) not permit the creation of any “interests,” within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions, (A) in the Upper-Tier REMIC other than the Regular Certificates, the Loan-Specific Certificates, the Uncertificated Interests and the Upper-Tier Residual Interest, or (B) in the Lower-Tier REMIC other than the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Lower-Tier Residual Interest or (C) in any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC other than the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests and the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Residual Interest. None of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Depositor shall be responsible or liable for any failure by the Certificate Administrator to comply with the provisions of this Section 4.04. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall cooperate in a timely manner with the Certificate Administrator in supplying any information within the Depositor’s, the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s control (other than any confidential information) that is reasonably necessary to enable the Certificate Administrator to perform its duties under this Section 4.04.

(b)               The following assumptions are to be used for purposes of determining the anticipated payments of principal and interest for calculating the original yield to maturity and

- 371 -

original issue discount with respect to the Regular Certificates, the Loan-Specific Certificates and the Uncertificated Interests: (i) each Trust Loan will pay principal and interest in accordance with its terms and scheduled payments will be timely received on their Due Dates, provided that the Mortgage Loans in the aggregate will prepay in accordance with the Prepayment Assumption; (ii) none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor and the Class R Certificateholder will exercise the right described in Section 9.01 of this Agreement to cause early termination of the Trust Fund; and (iii) no Trust Loan is repurchased or substituted for by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to Article II of this Agreement.

Section 4.05           Imposition of Tax on the Trust REMICs. In the event that any tax, including interest, penalties or assessments, additional amounts or additions to tax, is imposed on a Trust REMIC, such tax shall be charged against amounts otherwise distributable with respect to the Regular Certificates, the Loan-Specific Certificates, the Uncertificated Interests and the Class R Certificates; provided that any taxes imposed on any net income from foreclosure property pursuant to Code Section 860G(d) or any similar tax imposed by a state or local jurisdiction shall instead be treated as an expense of the related REO Property in determining Net REO Proceeds with respect to the REO Property (and until such taxes are paid, the Special Servicer from time to time shall withdraw from the REO Account and transfer to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Distribution Accounts amounts reasonably determined by the Certificate Administrator to be necessary to pay such taxes, and the Certificate Administrator shall return to the Special Servicer the excess determined by the Certificate Administrator from time to time of the amount in excess of the amount necessary to pay such taxes); provided that any such tax imposed on net income from foreclosure property that exceeds the amount in any such reserve shall be retained from Aggregate Available Funds or the applicable Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Available Funds, as applicable, as provided in Section 3.06(a)(vii) of this Agreement and the next sentence. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Certificate Administrator is hereby authorized to and shall retain or cause to be retained from the Distribution Account in determining the amount of Aggregate Available Funds or the applicable Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Available Funds, as applicable, sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and to actually pay, such tax as is legally owed by the applicable Trust REMIC (but such authorization shall not prevent the Certificate Administrator from contesting, at the expense of the Trust Fund, any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The Certificate Administrator is hereby authorized to and shall segregate or cause to be segregated, into a separate non-interest bearing account, (i) the net income from any “prohibited transaction” under Code Section 860F(a) or (ii) the amount of any contribution to a Trust REMIC after the Startup Day that is subject to tax under Code Section 860G(d) and use such income or amount, to the extent necessary, to pay such tax (and return the balance thereof, if any, to the related Distribution Account). To the extent that any such tax is paid to the IRS, the Certificate Administrator shall retain an equal amount from future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the related residual interest and shall distribute such retained amounts to the Holders of Non-Vertically Retained Regular Certificates in respect of such Certificates, to the Holders of the Class VRR Certificates in respect of such Certificates, to the Holders of the Loan-Specific Certificates in respect of such Loan-Specific Certificates and each Uncertificated Interest Owner in respect of its Uncertificated Interest or to the Certificate Administrator in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests or the Loan REMIC Regular Interest, as applicable, until they are fully reimbursed and then to the Holders of the Class R

- 372 -

Certificates in respect of the related residual interest. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee shall be responsible for any taxes imposed on a Trust REMIC except to the extent such tax is attributable to a breach of a representation or warranty of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee or an act or omission of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee in contravention of this Agreement in both cases, provided, further, that such breach, act or omission could result in liability under Section 6.03, in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, or Section 4.04 or Section 8.01, in the case of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in each such case, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall not be responsible for the Certificate Administrator’s, the Authenticating Agent’s, the Certificate Registrar’s, the Paying Agent’s or the Trustee’s breaches, acts or omissions, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for the breaches, acts or omissions of the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Authenticating Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Paying Agent, and the Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible for the breaches, acts or omissions of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and, in each case if a different entity than the Certificate Administrator, the Authenticating Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the Paying Agent.

Section 4.06           Remittances; P&I Advances.

(iii)               remit to CREFC^® the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee;

(iv)                              make a P&I Advance (A) with respect to the Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest by remittance to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, in an amount equal to the sum of the Applicable Monthly Payments for each Mortgage Loan (including any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, any REO Mortgage Loan and any Mortgage Loan related to a Whole Loan, but not a Companion Loan) to the extent such amounts were not received by the Master Servicer on such Mortgage Loan as of the close of business on the Determination Date (without regard to any grace period) in the same month as (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, was not received by the Master Servicer on such Mortgage Loan as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding) such Master Servicer Remittance Date), and (B) with respect to the Loan-Specific Certificates and any Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest relating to any particular Trust Subordinate Companion Loan by remittance to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC Distribution Account, in an amount equal to the Applicable Monthly Payment for such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan to the extent such amount was not received by the Master Servicer on such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan as of the close of business on the Determination Date (without regard to any grace period) in the same month as such Master Servicer Remittance Date, except that, in each case, the portion of any such P&I Advance equal to the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee for each such Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, shall not be remitted to the Certificate Administrator but shall instead be remitted to CREFC^® and (other than with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) the portion of such P&I Advance equal to the Asset Representations Reviewer Ongoing Fee, the Operating Advisor Fee or the Trustee/Certificate Administrator Fee, to the extent the subject fee remains unpaid to the applicable party hereunder, shall be deposited in the Collection Account or the applicable Whole Loan Custodial Account, as applicable, for payment to such party;

(v)                  remit to the Certificate Administrator, as compensation for it and the Trustee, the Trustee/Certificate Administrator Fee for the related Distribution Date out of the amounts from which it is payable;

(vi)                remit to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account an amount equal to the Excess Liquidation Proceeds received during the related Collection Period (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, received by the Master Servicer as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Master Servicer Remittance Date and not previously so remitted to the Certificate Administrator), if any; and

(vii)             remit to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Excess Interest Distribution Account all Excess Interest for the related Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account after giving effect to withdrawals of funds pursuant to Section 3.06(a)(ii) through Section 3.06(a)(ix) of this Agreement.

- 374 -

Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall be required or permitted to make an advance for Balloon Payments, Default Interest, Excess Interest or Yield Maintenance Charges, or delinquent Monthly Payments on the Companion Loans (other than the Trust Subordinate Companion Loans) or any REO Companion Loans (other than any successor REO Companion Loan with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). The amount required to be advanced in respect of delinquent payments of interest on any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction Amount exists will equal the product of (i) the amount otherwise required to be advanced by the Master Servicer with respect to delinquent payments of interest without giving effect to such Appraisal Reduction Amounts, and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan as of the last day of the related Collection Period, reduced by such Appraisal Reduction Amount, and the denominator of which is the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan as of the last day of the related Collection Period. Appraisal Reduction Amounts shall not affect the principal portion of any P&I Advances.

Any amount advanced by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(iv) of this Agreement shall constitute a P&I Advance for all purposes of this Agreement and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement (with interest at the Advance Rate). The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any P&I Advance.

The Certificate Administrator shall notify the Master Servicer and the Trustee by telephone if as of 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Certificate Administrator has not received the amount of a required P&I Advance hereunder. If as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Distribution Date the Master Servicer shall not have made the P&I Advance required to have been made on the related Master Servicer Remittance Date pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(iv) of this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee and the Trustee shall no later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Business Day deposit into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, or the applicable Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC Distribution Account, as applicable, in immediately available funds an amount equal to the P&I Advances otherwise required to have been made by the Master Servicer.

Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall be obligated to make a P&I Advance as to any Monthly Payment on any date on which a P&I Advance is otherwise required to be made by this Section 4.06 if the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, or the Special Servicer determines that such Advance will be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The determination by any Person with an obligation hereunder to make P&I Advances that it has made (or in the case of a determination by the Special Servicer, that the Master Servicer or the Trustee has made) a Nonrecoverable Advance or the determination by the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee that any proposed P&I Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be made by such Person (i) in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, in accordance with the Servicing Standard or (ii) in the case of the Trustee, in its good faith business judgment, and shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate as set forth in Section 4.06(b). In connection with a determination by the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee as to whether a P&I Advance previously made or to be made constitutes or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance:

(A)                      any such Person will be entitled to consider (among other things) the obligations of the Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan as it may have been modified, to consider (among other things) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as is” or then current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse change with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, to estimate and consider (among other things) future expenses and to estimate and consider (among other things) the timing of recoveries;

(B)                        any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and may obtain at the expense of the Trust Fund any analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for such purposes;

(C)                         the Special Servicer may, at its option (exercised in its sole discretion), make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard that any proposed P&I Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any outstanding P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance and may deliver to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, any applicable Directing Holder and the Controlling Class Representative if it is an applicable Consulting Party, notice of such determination, which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Master Servicer and the Trustee;

(D)                       although the Special Servicer may determine whether a P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Special Servicer will have no right to (i) make an affirmative determination that any P&I Advance previously made or to be made (or contemplated to be made) by the Master Servicer or the Trustee is, or would be, recoverable or (ii) reverse any determination that may have been made by the Master Servicer or the Trustee or to prohibit the Master Servicer or the Trustee from making a determination that a P&I Advance constitutes or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided that this sentence will not be construed to limit the Special Servicer’s right to make a determination that a P&I Advance to be made (or contemplated to be made) would be, or a previously made Advance is, a Nonrecoverable Advance, as described in this Section 4.06;

(E)                         any non-recoverability determination by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to this Section 4.06 with respect to the recoverability of P&I Advances shall be conclusive and binding on the Master Servicer (in the case of such a determination by the Special Servicer) and the Trustee;

(F)                          the Master Servicer shall provide notice to the Trustee on or prior to the Master Servicer Remittance Date of any such non-recoverability determination made by the Master Servicer on or prior to such date;

- 376 -

(G)                         the Trustee shall be entitled to rely, conclusively, on any determination by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer that a P&I Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided, however, that if the Master Servicer has failed to make a P&I Advance for reasons other than a determination by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer that such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Trustee shall make such advance within the time periods required by this Section 4.06 unless the Trustee, in its good faith business judgment, or the Special Servicer, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, makes a determination prior to the times specified in this Section 4.06 that such advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance;

(H)                        the Special Servicer shall report, promptly upon making a determination contemplated in this paragraph, to the Master Servicer the Special Servicer’s determination as to whether any P&I Advance made with respect to any previous Distribution Date or required to be made with respect to a future Distribution Date with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, and if the Special Servicer determines that such P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Master Servicer and the Trustee, and the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such determination; and

(I)                             notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee may conclusively rely upon any determination by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that any P&I Advance would be recoverable (unless a non-recoverability determination has been made by the other servicer in accordance with clause (E) above which is binding on the Trustee), and the Master Servicer may conclusively rely upon any determination by the Special Servicer that any P&I Advance would be recoverable.

The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to the reimbursement of P&I Advances it makes (together with interest thereon) to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 3.06(a)(ii) of this Agreement and each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer hereby covenants and agrees to promptly seek and effect the reimbursement of such Advances from the related Mortgagors to the extent permitted by applicable law and the related Trust Loan.

Within 2 Business Days of making a P&I Advance on any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall provide written notice of the amount of such P&I Advance to (i) if such Mortgage Loan is part of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Other Servicer, Other Special Servicer and Other Trustee of each Other Securitization Trust that holds a related Serviced Companion Loan, if any, or (ii) if such Mortgage Loan is part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan, the related Outside Servicer, Outside Special Servicer and Outside Trustee of the related Outside Securitization Trust.

With respect to P&I Advances and each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the “appraisal reduction amount” calculated by the related Outside Special Servicer or the related Outside Servicer in accordance with the terms of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement.

- 377 -

(b)               The determination by the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer that a P&I Advance has become a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance, if made pursuant to this Section 4.06 with respect to any Mortgage Loan (or with respect to any successor REO Mortgage Loan with respect to any of the foregoing), would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered on or prior to the next Master Servicer Remittance Date to the Trustee (unless it is the Person making the determination), any applicable Directing Holder, the holder of any related Pari Passu Companion Loan or its Companion Loan Holder Representative (in the case of a Pari Passu Whole Loan), the Master Servicer (unless it is the Person making the determination), the Special Servicer (unless it is the Person making the determination) and, if the Trustee is making the determination, the Depositor, setting forth the basis for such determination, together with any other information that supports such determination together with a copy of any Appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property, as the case may be (which Appraisal shall be an expense of the Trust, shall take into account any material change in circumstances of which such Person is aware or such Person has received new information, either of which has a material effect on the value and shall have been conducted in accordance with the standards of the Appraisal Institute within the twelve months preceding such determination of nonrecoverability), and further accompanied by related Mortgagor operating statements and financial statements, budgets and rent rolls of the related Mortgaged Property (to the extent available and/or in such Person’s possession) and any engineers’ reports, environmental surveys or similar reports that such Person may have obtained and that support such determination. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall consider Unliquidated Advances with respect to prior P&I Advances for the purpose of nonrecoverability determinations as if such amounts were unreimbursed P&I Advances. For the avoidance of doubt, any non-recoverability determination with respect to a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan will take into account the subordinate nature of such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan.

(c)               With respect to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall make its determination (based on information provided by the applicable Outside Servicer and Outside Special Servicer) that a P&I Advance that has been made on such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan (or any successor REO Mortgage Loan with respect thereto) is a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance with respect to such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan independently of any determination made by the applicable Outside Servicer, the applicable Outside Special Servicer or the Outside Trustee, as the case may be, under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement in respect of the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee determines that a proposed P&I Advance with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall provide the applicable Outside Servicer and Outside Special Servicer written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days of the date of such determination. If the Master Servicer receives written notice from the related Outside Servicer or the related Outside Special Servicer, as the case may be, that either has determined, or the Outside Trustee has determined, in accordance with the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to an Outside Serviced Companion Loan, that any proposed advance under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement that is similar to a P&I Advance would be, or any outstanding advance under such Outside Servicing Agreement that is similar to a P&I Advance is, a nonrecoverable advance, then the

- 378 -

Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee may, based upon such determination, determine that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made with respect to the related Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan will be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. Thereafter, in either case, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall not be required to make any additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan unless and until the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines that any such additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan would not be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, which determination may be as a result of consultation with the related Outside Servicer or the related Outside Special Servicer, as the case may be, or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have the sole discretion provided in this Agreement to determine that any future P&I Advance or outstanding P&I Advance would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance. Any non-recoverability determination by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to this Section 4.06 with respect to the recoverability of P&I Advances shall be conclusive and binding on the Master Servicer (in the case of such a determination by the Special Servicer) and the Trustee.

(d)               If the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has received written notice from any Rating Agency to the effect that continuation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in such capacity would result in the downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of any rating then assigned by such Rating Agency to any Class of Trust Certificates and citing servicing concerns with such Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, as the sole or material factor in such rating action, and such notice is not rescinded within 60 days, then the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly notify the other such parties and the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall promptly notify the Serviced Companion Loan Holder and the applicable master servicer of any Serviced Companion Loan.

(e)               For the avoidance of doubt, if a Mortgage Loan is subject to a forbearance agreement, standstill agreement or similar agreement that provides for a temporary deferral or similar temporary accommodation with respect to all or a portion of the related Monthly Payments, the Master Servicer shall make P&I Advances for such Mortgage Loan based on the terms of the related Loan Documents in effect immediately prior to the date of such forbearance or similar agreement, subject to any non-recoverability determination with respect to such Mortgage Loan.

(f)                Notwithstanding any other terms of this Agreement, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer nor the Trustee shall be entitled to recover: (1) from any collections on a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, any Nonrecoverable Advance made, or interest on any Nonrecoverable Advance made, in respect of a Mortgage Loan (other than the Mortgage Loan related to such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan); or (2) any Nonrecoverable Advance that is a P&I Advance made in respect of a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan or any interest due on such Advance from any collections or amounts allocable to the Mortgage Loans (other than the Mortgage Loan related to such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). With respect to each Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall only be entitled to reimbursement for a P&I Advance (and any interest thereon) from the amounts that would have been allocable to such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan or, if such P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, allocable to the related Mortgage Loan.

- 379 -

(g)               Notwithstanding any other terms of this Agreement, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer nor the Trustee shall be entitled to recover: (1) from collections on a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan any Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts in respect of a Mortgage Loan (other than the Mortgage Loan related to such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan); or (2) from any collections on or allocable to the Mortgage Loans (other than the Mortgage Loan related to such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) any Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts in respect of a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan. However, if the Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount relates to a Property Advance for a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to recover such Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount from general collections on deposit in the Collection Account for the Mortgage Pool and the applicable Trust Subordinate Companion Loan.

Section 4.07           Grantor Trust Reporting.

(a)               The Certificate Administrator shall maintain adequate books and records to account for the separate entitlements of the Grantor Trust.

(b)               The parties intend that the Grantor Trust shall be treated as a “grantor trust” under the Code, and the provisions thereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. In furtherance of such intention, none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall vary the assets of the Grantor Trust so as to take advantage of market fluctuations or so as to improve the rate of return of the Grantor Trust Certificates or the Uncertificated VRR Interest, and shall otherwise comply with Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-4(c). The Certificate Administrator shall timely file or cause to be timely filed with the IRS Form 1041, Form 1099 or such other form as may be applicable and shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holders of the respective Classes of the Grantor Trust Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, their allocable share of income and expense with respect to the VRR Specific Grantor Trust Assets, the Class S Specific Grantor Trust Assets and proceeds thereof as such amounts are received or accrue, as applicable.

(c)               (i) The Grantor Trust will be a WHFIT that is a WHMT at any time any portion of the Combined VRR Interest or a Class S Certificate is held by a “middleman” as defined by the WHFIT Regulations. The Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to assume that the Grantor Trust is not a WHFIT until it has actual knowledge, or has received further notice from the Depositor, that any portion of the Combined VRR Interest or a Class S Certificate is held by a “middleman”. The Certificate Administrator shall report as required under the WHFIT Regulations or other Treasury Regulations applicable to grantor trusts to the extent such information as is reasonably necessary to enable the Certificate Administrator to do so is provided to the Certificate Administrator on a timely basis. The Certificate Administrator will not be liable for any tax reporting penalties that may arise under the WHFIT Regulations in the event that the IRS makes a determination that is contrary to the first sentence of this paragraph.

(ii)                 The Certificate Administrator, in its discretion, shall report required WHFIT information using either the cash or accrual method, except to the extent the WHFIT Regulations specifically require a different method. The Certificate Administrator shall make available (via the Certificate Administrator’s Website) WHFIT information to Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner annually. In

- 380 -

addition, the Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible or liable for providing subsequently amended, revised or updated information to any Certificateholder or Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, unless requested by such Certificateholder or such Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner.

(iii)               The Certificate Administrator shall not be liable for failure to meet the reporting requirements of the WHFIT Regulations nor for any penalties thereunder if such failure is due to: (i) the lack of reasonably necessary information that is not in its possession being provided to the Certificate Administrator or (ii) incomplete, inaccurate or untimely information being provided to the Certificate Administrator. Each owner of a class of securities representing, in whole or in part, beneficial ownership of an interest in a WHFIT, by acceptance of its interest in such class of securities, will be deemed to have agreed to provide the Certificate Administrator with information regarding any sale of such securities, including the price, amount of proceeds and date of sale. Absent receipt of information regarding any sale of Certificates, including the price, amount of proceeds and date of sale from the beneficial owner thereof or the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator shall assume there is no secondary market trading of WHFIT interests.

(d)               To the extent required by the WHFIT Regulations, the Certificate Administrator shall use reasonable efforts to publish on the Certificate Administrator’s Website the CUSIP Numbers for the Certificates that represent ownership of a WHFIT. The CUSIP Number so published will represent the Rule 144A CUSIP Numbers. The Certificate Administrator shall make reasonable good faith efforts to keep the website accurate and updated to the extent CUSIP Numbers have been received. Absent the receipt of a CUSIP Number, the Certificate Administrator will use a reasonable identifier number in lieu of a CUSIP Number. The Certificate Administrator shall not be liable for investor reporting delays that result from the receipt of inaccurate or untimely CUSIP Number information.

(e)               Because the Trust Fund will not include ARD Mortgage Loans as of the Closing Date, there will not be any VRR Specific Grantor Trust Assets or Class S Specific Grantor Trust Assets, and no Excess Interest Distribution Account will be established. Accordingly, there will not be a Grantor Trust and all references in this Agreement to “Grantor Trust” shall be disregarded.

Section 4.08           Calculations. Provided that the Certificate Administrator receives the necessary loan-level information from the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for performing all calculations necessary in connection with the actual and deemed distributions to be made pursuant to Section 4.01, the preparation of the Distribution Date Statements pursuant to Section 4.02(a) and the actual and deemed allocations of Realized Losses to be made pursuant to Section 4.01. The Certificate Administrator shall calculate the Principal Distribution Amount, the VRR Principal Distribution Amount, the Aggregate Principal Distribution Amount, the Interest Distribution Amounts, the VRR Interest Distribution Amount, the VRR Realized Loss Interest Distribution Amount and any comparable principal, interest and other distribution amounts relating to the Loan-Specific Certificates and any Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interests relating to a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan for each Distribution Date and shall allocate such amounts among the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners in accordance with this Agreement.

- 381 -

Absent actual knowledge of an error therein, the Certificate Administrator shall have no obligation to recompute, recalculate or otherwise verify any loan-level information provided to it by the Master Servicer. The calculations by the Certificate Administrator contemplated by this Section 4.08 shall, in the absence of manifest error, be deemed to be correct for all purposes hereunder.

Section 4.09           Secure Data Room.

(a)               Within 60 days of the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall create a Secure Data Room, and the Depositor shall, upon the earlier of (i) receipt of all the Mortgage Loan Sellers’ Diligence File Certifications and (ii) the 120th day following the Closing Date (but, in any event, no earlier than the date on which the Depositor has received a written notice from the Certificate Administrator that the Secure Data Room has been created), deliver to the Certificate Administrator (but solely with respect to any Diligence File(s) received by the Depositor as to which it has received the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s Diligence File Certification) an electronic copy of the Diligence Files for the Mortgage Loans that have been uploaded by the Mortgage Loan Sellers to the Designated Site. After the 120th day following the Closing Date, the Depositor may deliver any Mortgage Loan Seller’s Diligence Files to the Certificate Administrator if it has not previously delivered such Mortgage Loan Seller’s Diligence Files to the Certificate Administrator. Upon receipt thereof, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly upload the contents of each Diligence File to the Secure Data Room. Access to the Secure Data Room shall be granted by the Certificate Administrator to (i) the Asset Representations Reviewer and (ii) any other Person at the direction of the Depositor, in each case, upon the occurrence of an Affirmative Asset Review Vote and receipt by the Certificate Administrator of a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit KK hereto (which shall be sent via e-mail to trustadministrationgroup@computershare.com or submitted electronically via the Certificate Administrator’s website). In no case whatsoever shall Trust Certificateholders or Uncertificated Interest Owners be permitted to access the Secure Data Room. For the avoidance of doubt, the Certificate Administrator shall be under no obligation to post any documents to the Secure Data Room other than the contents of the Diligence Files initially delivered to it by the Depositor with respect to each Mortgage Loan Seller.

(b)               The Certificate Administrator shall not have any obligation or duty to verify, review, confirm or otherwise determine whether the type, number or contents of any Diligence File delivered to the Certificate Administrator is accurate, complete, or relates to the transaction or confirm that all documents and information constituting any Diligence File have actually been delivered to the Certificate Administrator. In no case shall the Certificate Administrator be deemed to have obtained actual or constructive knowledge of the contents of, or information contained in, any Diligence File by virtue of posting such Diligence File to the Secure Data Room. In the event that any document is posted in error, the Certificate Administrator may remove such document from the Secure Data Room. The Certificate Administrator shall not have any obligation to produce physical or electronic copies of any document provided to it for posting to the Secure Data Room. The Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible or held liable for any other Person’s use or dissemination of the documents contained on the Secure Data Room; provided that such event or occurrence is not also a result of its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The Certificate Administrator shall not be required to restrict access to the Secure Data Room on a loan-by-loan basis and any Person with access to the Secure Data Room shall

- 382 -

covenant to access only the documents necessary to perform its duties and responsibilities under this Agreement.

(c)               Upon the resignation or removal of the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 8.07, the Certificate Administrator shall transfer electronic copies of the Diligence Files to a successor certificate administrator designated in writing by the Depositor or the Master Servicer, and all costs and expenses associated with the transfer of the Diligence Files shall be payable as part of the costs and expenses associated with the transfer of its responsibilities upon the resignation or removal of the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 8.07. Following the date on which any Mortgage Loan is paid in full, liquidated, repurchased or otherwise removed from the Trust, the Special Servicer may (but shall not be obligated to) direct the Certificate Administrator in writing to delete the Diligence File related to such Mortgage Loan from the Secure Data Room; provided that absent such direction, the Certificate Administrator shall not be obligated to delete any Diligence File from the Secure Data Room. Following the termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 9.01, the Certificate Administrator shall be permitted to delete all files from the Secure Data Room. Upon deletion, in no event shall the Certificate Administrator be obligated to reproduce or retrieve such deleted files.

Article V

THE CERTIFICATES

Section 5.01           The Certificates.

(a)               The Certificates consist of the Class A-1 Certificates, the Class A-2 Certificates, the Class A-3 Certificates, the Class X-A Certificates, the Class X-B Certificates, the Class A-S Certificates, the Class B Certificates, the Class C Certificates, the Class X-D Certificates, the Class X-F Certificates, Class D Certificates, the Class E Certificates, the Class F Certificates, the Class G-RR Certificates, the Class J-RR Certificates, the Class R Certificates and, if the Trust Fund includes one or more ARD Mortgage Loans on the Closing Date, the Class S Certificates.

Each Class of Trust Certificates will be substantially in the forms annexed hereto as Exhibits A-1 through A-19, respectively, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Agreement or as may, in the reasonable judgment of the Certificate Registrar, be necessary, appropriate or convenient to comply, or facilitate compliance, with applicable laws, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required by law, or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers executing such Trust Certificates, as evidenced by their execution thereof. The Public Certificates (other than the Class X-A and Class X-B Certificates) shall be issued in minimum denominations of $10,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Private Certificates (other than the Class X-D, Class X-F, Class S and Class R Certificates and any Loan-Specific Interest-Only Certificates) shall be issued in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates and any Loan-Specific Interest-Only Certificates shall be issued, maintained and transferred only in minimum denominations of authorized initial notional amounts of not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The

- 383 -

Class VRR Certificates shall be issued in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $0.01 in excess thereof. If the initial Certificate Balance or initial Notional Amount, as applicable, of any Class of Trust Certificates (exclusive of the Class VRR, Class S and Class R Certificates) does not equal an integral multiple of $1, then a single Trust Certificate of such Class may be issued in a minimum denomination of authorized initial principal balance or initial notional amount, as applicable, that includes the excess of (i) the initial Certificate Balance or initial Notional Amount, as applicable, of such Class over (ii) the largest integral multiple of $1 that does not exceed such amount. The Class R Certificates shall be issued, maintained and transferred in minimum percentage interests of 10% of such Class R Certificates and in integral multiples of 1% in excess thereof. The Class S Certificates shall be issued, maintained and transferred in minimum percentage interests of 10% of such Class S Certificates and in integral multiples of 1% in excess thereof.

(b)               One authorized signatory shall sign the Trust Certificates for the Certificate Administrator by manual or facsimile signature. If an authorized signatory whose signature is on a Trust Certificate no longer holds that office at the time the Certificate Administrator countersigns the Trust Certificate, the Trust Certificate shall be valid nevertheless. A Trust Certificate shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Certificate Administrator (who may be the same officer who executed the Trust Certificate) manually countersigns the Trust Certificate. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Trust Certificate has been executed and countersigned under this Agreement.

Section 5.02           Form and Registration.

(a)               Each Class of Public Certificates shall be represented by a single, global certificate in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons, substantially in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto, which shall be deposited with the Certificate Registrar or an agent of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or a nominee of the Depository. The aggregate Certificate Balance of a Global Certificate may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, as hereinafter provided.

(b)               Unless and until Definitive Certificates are issued in respect of a Class of Global Certificates, beneficial ownership interests in such Trust Certificates will be maintained and transferred on the book-entry records of the Depository and Depository Participants, and all references to actions by Holders of such Class of Trust Certificates will refer to action taken by the Depository upon instructions received from the related registered Holders of Trust Certificates through the Depository Participants in accordance with the Depository’s procedures and, except as otherwise set forth herein, all references herein to payments, notices, reports and statements to Holders of such Class of Trust Certificates will refer to payments, notices, reports and statements to the Depository or its nominee as the registered Holder thereof, for distribution to the related registered Holders of Trust Certificates through the Depository Participants in accordance with the Depository’s procedures.

(c)               No transfer of any Private Certificate shall be made unless that transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, and effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction which

- 384 -

does not require such registration or qualification. If a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act, and under the applicable state securities laws, then:

(i)                    The Trust Certificates of each Class of the Private Certificates (other than the Class S Certificates and the Class R Certificates) sold in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Act shall initially be represented by a temporary global certificate in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons, substantially in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto (each a “Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate”), which shall be deposited on the Closing Date on behalf of the purchasers of the Private Certificates represented thereby with the Certificate Registrar, at its principal trust office, as custodian, for the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of the Depository for the account of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear and/or Clearstream. Prior to the expiration of the 40-day period commencing on the later of the commencement of the offering and the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), beneficial interests in each Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate may be held only through Euroclear or Clearstream. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate may be exchanged for an interest in the related permanent global certificate of the same Class of Private Certificates (a “Regulation S Global Certificate”) in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.03(f) of this Agreement. During the Restricted Period, distributions due in respect of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate shall only be made upon delivery to the Certificate Registrar by Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, of a Non-U.S. Beneficial Ownership Certification. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, distributions due in respect of any beneficial interests in a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate shall not be made to the holders of such beneficial interests unless exchange for a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Certificate of the same Class is improperly withheld or refused. The aggregate Certificate Balance of a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or a Regulation S Global Certificate may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, as hereinafter provided.

On the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, and the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar the Regulation S Global Certificates, which shall be held by the Certificate Registrar for purposes of effecting the exchanges contemplated by the preceding paragraph. Computershare Trust Company, National Association is hereby initially appointed the Authenticating Agent with the power to act, on the Trustee’s behalf, in the authentication and delivery of the Trust Certificates in connection with transfers and exchanges as herein provided. If Computershare Trust Company, National Association is removed as Certificate Administrator, then Computershare Trust Company, National Association shall be terminated as Authenticating Agent. If the Authenticating Agent is terminated, the Certificate Administrator (or, if the same entity is acting as both the Authenticating Agent and the Certificate Administrator and such entity is being removed from both capacities, a successor Certificate Administrator) shall appoint a successor authenticating agent, which may be the Certificate Administrator or an Affiliate thereof, in accordance with Section 5.09 of this Agreement.

(e)               Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or Regulation S Global Certificate to Rule 144A Global Certificate. If a holder of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or Regulation S Global Certificate deposited with the Certificate Registrar as custodian for the Depository wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or Regulation S Global Certificate for an interest in the Rule 144A Global Certificate of the same Class, or to transfer its interest in such Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate or Regulation S Global Certificate to a Person who is required to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in the Rule 144A Global Certificate, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, and the Depository, exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Certificate of the same Class.

(f)                Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate to Regulation S Global Certificate. Interests in a Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate as to which the Certificate Registrar has received from Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, a certificate (a “Non-U.S. Beneficial Ownership Certification”) to the effect that Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, has received a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H to this Agreement from the holder of a beneficial interest in such Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate, shall be exchanged after the Restricted Period, for interests in the Regulation S Global Certificate of the same Class of Private Certificates. The Certificate Registrar shall effect such exchange by delivering to the Depository for credit to the respective accounts of such holders, a duly executed and authenticated Regulation S Global Certificate, representing the aggregate Certificate Balance of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate initially exchanged for interests in the Regulation S Global Certificate. The delivery to the Certificate Registrar by Euroclear or Clearstream of the certificate or certificates referred to above may be relied upon by the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar as conclusive evidence that the certificate or certificates referred to therein has or have been delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate. Upon any exchange of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate for interests in the Regulation S Global Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall endorse the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate to reflect the reduction in the Certificate Balance represented thereby by the amount so exchanged and shall endorse the Regulation S Global Certificate to reflect the corresponding increase in the amount represented thereby. Until so exchanged in full and except as provided therein, the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate, and the Trust Certificates evidenced thereby, shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the Regulation S Global Certificate and Rule 144A Global Certificate authenticated and delivered hereunder.

(g)               Non-Book Entry Certificate to Global Certificate. If a holder of a Non-Book Entry Certificate that is a Private Certificate (other than a Class S Certificate or a Class R Certificate) wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Non-Book Entry Certificate for an interest in a Global Certificate of the same Class, or to transfer all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate to an institution that is entitled to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in a Global Certificate, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream, if applicable, and the Depository, cause the exchange of all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate for an equivalent beneficial interest in the appropriate Global Certificate of the same Class. Upon receipt by the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, at its office designated in Section 5.11 of this Agreement, of (1) such Non-Book Entry Certificate, duly endorsed as provided herein, (2) instructions from such holder directing the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, to credit, or cause to be credited, a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Certificate equal to the portion of the Certificate Balance of the Non-Book Entry Certificate to be exchanged, such instructions to contain information regarding the participant account with the Depository to be credited with such increase and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit I to this Agreement (in the event that the applicable Global Certificate is the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate), in the form of Exhibit J to this Agreement (in the event that the applicable Global Certificate is the Regulation S Global Certificate) or in the form of Exhibit K to this Agreement (in the event that the applicable Global Certificate is the Rule 144A Global Certificate), then the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, shall cancel, or cause to be canceled, all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate, and shall, if applicable, direct the Certificate Administrator to execute, authenticate and deliver to the transferor a new Non-Book Entry Certificate equal to the aggregate Certificate Balance of the portion

- 390 -

retained by such transferor and shall instruct the Depository to increase, or cause to be increased, such Global Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Balance of the portion of the Non-Book Entry Certificate to be exchanged and to credit, or cause to be credited, to the account of the institution specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the applicable Global Certificate equal to the Certificate Balance of the portion of the Non-Book Entry Certificate so canceled. Upon the written direction of the Depositor (which may be by e-mail to CCTCMBSBondAdmin@computershare.com) or its Affiliate, the Certificate Registrar shall execute any instrument as may be reasonably required by the Depository to effect such exchange.

(h)               Exchanges of Non-Book Entry Certificates. If a holder of a Rule 144A Global Certificate, Regulation S Global Certificate or Non-Book Entry Certificate (other than a Public Certificate) wishes at any time to transfer its interest in such Rule 144A Global Certificate, Regulation S Global Certificate or Non-Book Entry Certificate to a Person who is required to take delivery thereof in the form of a Non-Book Entry Certificate, then (except in connection with the transfer or deemed transfer thereof by the Depositor, an Initial Purchaser or, if occurring on the Closing Date, the Retaining Sponsor) the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon): (i) a certificate from the proposed transferor substantially in the form attached as Exhibit L-2B to this Agreement, (ii) an investment representation letter from the proposed transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit L-4 to this Agreement; and (iii) if required by the Certificate Registrar, an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar to the effect that such transfer shall be made without registration under the Securities Act, together with the written certification(s) as to the facts surrounding such transfer from the Trust Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and/or the proposed transferee on which such opinion of counsel is based (such opinion of counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust or of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar in their respective capacities as such).

(i)                 [Reserved].

(j)                 Other Exchanges. In the event that a Global Certificate is exchanged for a Definitive Certificate (other than as otherwise set forth in Section 5.02(d) of this Agreement), such Trust Certificates may be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of clauses (c) through (f), (h) and (i) above (including the certification requirements intended to ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Act, at the case may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Certificate Registrar.

(k)               Restricted Period. Prior to the termination of the Restricted Period with respect to the issuance of the Trust Certificates, transfers of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Global Certificate to U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S) shall be limited to transfers made pursuant to the provisions of clause (e) above.

(l)                 If Private Certificates are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Trust Certificates bearing a restrictive legend relating to compliance with the Act, or if a request is made to remove such legend on Trust Certificates, the Private Certificates so issued shall bear the restrictive legend, or such legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is

- 391 -

delivered to the Certificate Registrar such satisfactory evidence, which may include an Opinion of Counsel that neither such legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A, Rule 144 or Regulation S under the Act, Regulation RR or, with respect to Non-Book Entry Certificates, that such Trust Certificates are not “restricted” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver Trust Certificates that do not bear such legend.

(m)             All Trust Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with the Certificate Registrar’s customary procedures.

(n)               No Class VRR Certificate (if it is not an ERISA Restricted Certificate covered by the next sentence), Uncertificated Interest, Class S Certificate or Class R Certificate may be purchased by or transferred to any prospective purchaser or transferee that is or will be (i) an employee benefit plan or other plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility or prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Code Section 4975 (each, a “Plan”), or (ii) any entity or collective investment fund the assets of which are considered Plan assets under U.S. Department of Labor Reg. Section 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA, or Similar Law (as defined below), an insurance company that is using the assets of separate accounts or general accounts which include Plan assets (or which are deemed to include assets of Plans) or other Person acting on behalf of any such Plan or using the assets of a Plan (each, a “Plan Investor”) to purchase such Trust Certificate or Uncertificated Interest. In addition, no ERISA Restricted Certificate or interest therein may be purchased by or transferred to any prospective purchaser or transferee that is or will be a Plan or Plan Investor, unless (i) such purchaser or transferee is an insurance company, (ii) the source of funds used to acquire or hold such ERISA Restricted Certificate or interest therein is an “insurance company general account,” as such term is defined in PTCE 95-60, and (iii) the conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied. Furthermore, no ERISA Restricted Certificate, Class VRR Certificate (regardless of whether it is an ERISA Restricted Certificate), Uncertificated Interest, Class S Certificate or Class R Certificate or interest therein may be purchased by or transferred to any prospective purchaser or transferee that is or will be a governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA) or other plan that is subject to any federal, state or local law that is, to a material extent, similar to the fiduciary responsibility or prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Code Section 4975 (“Similar Law”), or to any Person acting on behalf of any such plan or using the assets of such plan to acquire such Trust Certificate or interest therein unless, in the case of an ERISA Restricted Certificate, its acquisition, holding and disposition of such Trust Certificate or an interest therein would not constitute or otherwise result in a non-exempt violation of Similar Law. Except in connection with the transfer or deemed transfer thereof by the Depositor, an Initial Purchaser or, if occurring on the Closing Date, the Retaining Sponsor, each prospective transferee of an ERISA Restricted Certificate, a Class VRR Certificate (regardless of whether it is an ERISA Restricted Certificate), a Class S Certificate or a Class R Certificate in the form of a Non-Book Entry Certificate or any Uncertificated Interest shall deliver to the transferor, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee representation letters, substantially in the form of Exhibit L-3 and, except in the case of an Uncertificated Interest, Exhibit L-4 to this Agreement. Each beneficial owner of a Trust Certificate (other than a Class S or Class R Certificate) or any interest therein will be deemed to have represented, by virtue of its acquisition or holding of such

- 392 -

Trust Certificate or interest therein, that either (i) it is not a Plan or Plan Investor, (ii) except in the case of an ERISA Restricted Certificate or a Class VRR Certificate (regardless of whether it is an ERISA Restricted Certificate), it has acquired and is holding the Trust Certificates in reliance on the Underwriter Exemption, and that it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the Underwriter Exemption, including that the Trust Certificates must be rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than “BBB-” (or its equivalent) by a rating agency that meets the requirements of the Underwriter Exemption and that such Trust Certificate is so rated and that it is an Institutional Accredited Investor or (iii) except in the case of a Class VRR Certificate (unless it is being sold or transferred through BMO Capital Markets Corp., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, UBS Securities LLC or Wells Fargo Securities, LLC), (1) it is an insurance company, (2) the source of funds used to acquire or hold the Trust Certificate or interest therein is an “insurance company general account,” as such term is defined in PTCE 95-60, and (3) the conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied. Each beneficial owner of a Trust Certificate or an interest therein which is a governmental plan or other plan subject to Similar Law shall be deemed to have represented, by virtue of its acquisition or holding of such Trust Certificate or interest therein that the acquisition, holding and disposition of such Trust Certificate or an interest therein by the purchaser will not constitute or otherwise result in a non-exempt violation of Similar Law. Any attempted or purported transfer in violation of these transfer restrictions shall be null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in any purported transferee and shall not relieve the transferor of any obligations with respect to the applicable Trust Certificates.

(o)               (i) The Depositor hereby directs the Certificate Administrator to register each Uncertificated Interest, upon issuance, in the Certificate Register in the name of the initial Uncertificated Interest Owner or the applicable Loan-Specific Retaining Sponsor, as applicable. No Person shall be permitted to own, directly or indirectly, any interest in an Uncertificated Interest other than (i) the initial Uncertificated Interest Owner of such Uncertificated Interest or one of its Majority Owned Affiliates that is not a Non-Exempt Person or (ii) a Person that provides financing permitted under Regulation RR (a “Permitted Lender”) to the applicable Uncertificated Interest Owner or such Majority Owned Affiliate; provided, further, that if such financing is provided by the Permitted Lender in a repurchase transaction, the applicable initial Uncertificated Interest Owner or such Majority-Owned Affiliate of the applicable initial Uncertificated Interest Owner may transfer its interest in such Uncertificated Interest to the Permitted Lender so long as the applicable initial Uncertificated Interest Owner or such Majority-Owned Affiliate is obligated to repurchase such interest in such Uncertificated Interest pursuant to the terms of the related financing documents. An Uncertificated Interest Owner, if it wishes to transfer its Uncertificated Interest, shall notify the Certificate Administrator in writing of such transfer and identify the new Uncertificated Interest Owner. The Certificate Administrator shall register the ownership of each Uncertificated Interest on the Certificate Register. Any transfer of an Uncertificated Interest (including to a Majority Owned Affiliate) shall be null and void ab initio to the extent permitted under applicable law unless all of the following is provided to the Certificate Administrator: (i) a written instrument whereby the transferor of such Uncertificated Interest assigns, and the transferee of such Uncertificated Interest assumes, all rights and obligations in connection with such Uncertificated Interest under this Agreement; (ii) the transferor of such Uncertificated Interest has executed and delivered to the Certificate Administrator a certification in the form of Exhibit L-6A hereto, which certification must (x) be countersigned by the applicable Retaining Party (if different than the transferor), the Retaining Sponsor or applicable Loan-

- 393 -

Specific Retaining Sponsor, as applicable, and the Depositor and (y) include a medallion stamp guarantee of such Retaining Party; and (iii) the transferee of such Uncertificated Interest has executed and delivered to the Certificate Administrator a certification in the form of Exhibit L-5A, which certification must (x) be countersigned by the applicable Retaining Party, the Retaining Sponsor or applicable Loan-Specific Retaining Sponsor, as applicable, and the Depositor, (y) include a medallion stamp guarantee of such Retaining Party and (z) include wiring instructions and contact information for such transferee. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, no Person shall have any rights hereunder with respect to an Uncertificated Interest unless (i) such Person is the Retaining Sponsor or applicable Loan-Specific Retaining Sponsor, as applicable, or (ii) in the case of any Majority-Owned Affiliate of such Retaining Sponsor or applicable Loan-Specific Retaining Sponsor, as applicable, such Person is identified in writing to the Certificate Administrator as being the applicable Uncertificated Interest Owner, or (iii) in the case of any subsequent transferee, such Person is identified as being the applicable Uncertificated Interest Owner on the ownership registry. The Certificate Administrator, the other parties to this Agreement and the Certificateholders shall be entitled to treat an Uncertificated Interest Owner (in the case of any subsequent Uncertificated Interest Owner, as recorded on such ownership registry) as the owner in fact of the applicable Uncertificated Interest for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Uncertificated Interest on the part of any other Person. Any transfer of an interest in an Uncertificated Interest that is not in compliance with this Section 5.03(o)(i) or Section 5.03(n) shall be null and void ab initio to the extent permitted under applicable law. For avoidance of doubt, no Uncertificated Interest will be issued under this Agreement, and any references to “Uncertificated Interest” or “Uncertificated Interest Owner” in this Agreement should be ignored.

(ii)              Each initial Uncertificated Interest Owner and any subsequent Uncertificated Interest Owner shall be deemed by virtue of its acceptance of an Uncertificated Interest to represent to the Trust and the Certificate Administrator (for the benefit of the borrowers) that it is not a Non-Exempt Person. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time as necessary during the term of the Agreement, each Uncertificated Interest Owner shall deliver to the Certificate Administrator evidence satisfactory to the Certificate Administrator substantiating that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Certificate Administrator is not obligated under applicable law to withhold taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise under this Agreement. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, (a) if an Uncertificated Interest Owner is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Certificate Administrator an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (b) if an Uncertificated Interest Owner is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the borrowers is treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, such Uncertificated Interest Owner shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Certificate Administrator an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments), Form W-8BEN-E or Form W-8BEN, or successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by such Uncertificated Interest Owner, as evidence of

- 394 -

such Uncertificated Interest Owner’s exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. The Certificate Administrator shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder to an Uncertificated Interest Owner in respect of an Uncertificated Interest or otherwise until such Uncertificated Interest Owner shall have furnished to the Certificate Administrator the forms, certificates, statements or documents required by this Section 5.03(o)(ii).

(p)               Each Person who has or acquires any Residual Ownership Interest shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Residual Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and the rights of each Person acquiring any Residual Ownership Interest are expressly subject to the following provisions:

(i)                    Each Person acquiring or holding any Residual Ownership Interest shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall not acquire or hold such Residual Ownership Interest as agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) on behalf of any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee. Any such Person shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of any change or impending change in its status (or the status of the beneficial owner of such Residual Ownership Interest) as a Permitted Transferee. Any acquisition described in the first sentence of this Section 5.03(p) by a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee or by a Person who is acting as an agent of a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee shall be void ab initio and of no effect, and the immediately preceding owner who was a Permitted Transferee shall be restored to registered and beneficial ownership of the Residual Ownership Interest as soon and as fully as possible.

(ii)                 No Residual Ownership Interest may be Transferred, and no such Transfer shall be registered in the Certificate Register, without the express written consent of the Certificate Registrar, and the Certificate Registrar shall not recognize the Transfer, and such proposed Transfer shall not be effective, without such consent with respect thereto. In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Residual Ownership Interest, other than in connection with the initial Transfer thereof to the Initial Purchasers, the Certificate Registrar shall, as a condition to such consent, (x) require the proposed transferee to deliver, and the proposed transferee shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar and to the proposed transferor, an affidavit (or, solely in connection with the initial issuance of such Residual Ownership Interest, a certification) in substantially the form attached as Exhibit L-1 to this Agreement (a “Transferee Affidavit”) of the proposed transferee (A) that such proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee and (B) stating that (1) the proposed transferee historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to do so in the future, (2) the proposed transferee understands that, as the holder of a Residual Ownership Interest, it may incur tax liabilities in excess of cash flows generated by the residual interest, (3) the proposed transferee intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Residual Ownership Interest as they become due, (4) the proposed transferee will not cause income with respect to the Residual Ownership Interest to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of such proposed transferee or any other U.S. Tax Person, (5) the proposed transferee will not transfer the Residual Ownership Interest to any Person that does not provide a Transferee Affidavit or as to which the proposed transferee has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee or is acting as an agent (including a broker,

- 395 -

nominee or other middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, and (6) the proposed transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with the provisions of this Section 5.03(p) and (y) other than in connection with the initial issuance of a Class R Certificate or the Transfer of any Class R Certificate by any Initial Purchaser in connection with the initial offering of the Trust Certificates, require a statement from the proposed transferor substantially in the form attached as Exhibit L-2A to this Agreement (the “Transferor Letter”), that the proposed transferor has no actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee and has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the proposed transferee’s statements in the preceding clauses (x)(B)(1) or (3) are false.

(iii)               Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed transferee under clause (p)(ii) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer to such proposed transferee shall be effected and such proposed Transfer shall not be registered on the Certificate Register; provided, however, the Certificate Registrar shall not be required to conduct any independent investigation to determine whether a proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee. Upon notice to the Certificate Registrar that there has occurred a Transfer to any Person that is a Disqualified Organization or an agent thereof (including a broker, nominee or middleman) in contravention of the foregoing restrictions, and in any event not later than 60 days after a request for information from the transferor of such Residual Ownership Interest or such agent, the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate Administrator agree to furnish to the IRS and the transferor of such Residual Ownership Interest or such agent such information necessary to the application of Code Section 860E(e) as may be required by the Code, including, but not limited to, the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions with respect to such Class R Certificate (or portion thereof) for periods after such Transfer. At the election of the Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Registrar may charge a reasonable fee for computing and furnishing such information to the transferor or to such agent referred to above; provided, however, such Persons shall in no event be excused from furnishing such information.

(q)               The Class R Certificates may only be represented by Definitive Certificates and may only be transferred to and owned by Qualified Institutional Buyers. The Class S Certificates may only be represented by Definitive Certificates and may only be transferred to and owned by Qualified Institutional Buyers or Institutional Accredited Investors.

(r)                Any attempted or purported transfer in violation of the transfer restrictions set forth in this Article V shall be null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in any purported transferee and shall not relieve the transferor of any obligations with respect to the applicable Trust Certificates.

Section 5.04           Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Trust Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator such security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence of actual notice that such Trust Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Certificate

- 396 -

Registrar shall direct the Certificate Administrator to execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Certificate, a new Trust Certificate of like tenor and interest in the Trust Fund. In connection with the issuance of any new Trust Certificate under this Section 5.04, the Certificate Registrar and the Certificate Administrator may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any replacement Trust Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 5.04 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Certificate shall be found at any time.

Section 5.05           Persons Deemed Owners. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Trust Certificate is registered as the owner of such Trust Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary; provided, however, that to the extent that a party to this Agreement responsible for distributing any report, statement or other information required to be distributed to Trust Certificateholders has been provided an Investor Certification, such party to this Agreement shall distribute such report, statement or other information to such Certificate Owner (or prospective transferee) under the same circumstances, and subject to the same conditions, as such report, statement or other information would be provided to a Trust Certificateholder.

Section 5.06           Appointment of Paying Agent. The Certificate Administrator may appoint (and, if it does not so appoint, shall act as) a paying agent for the purpose of making distributions to the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners pursuant to Section 4.01 of this Agreement. The Certificate Administrator shall cause such Paying Agent, if other than the Certificate Administrator or the Master Servicer, to execute and deliver to the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator an instrument that is consistent in all material respects with this Agreement and in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator that such Paying Agent will hold all sums held by it for the payment to the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners in trust for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners entitled thereto until such sums have been paid to the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners or disposed of as otherwise provided herein. The initial Paying Agent shall be the Certificate Administrator. The Paying Agent shall at all times be an entity having a long-term unsecured debt rating of at least (i) “BBB” from S&P and (ii) “BBB+” from Fitch (provided that for so long as (1) the Paying Agent is the Certificate Administrator and (2) Computershare Trust Company, National Association is the Certificate Administrator, Computershare Trust Company, National Association will be deemed to have satisfied the rating requirements in clauses (i) and (ii) if Computershare Trust Company, National Association satisfies all Rating Agencies’ requirements applicable to the Certificate Administrator set forth in Section 8.06 of this Agreement), or shall be, in the case of any Rating Agency’s requirement set forth in this sentence, otherwise acceptable to each Rating Agency as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation.

(a)               The Certificate Registrar shall maintain in as current form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of the Trust Certificateholders.

Every Trust Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Trust Certificate, agrees that the Certificate Registrar shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the list of the Trust Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which information was derived. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Depositor shall be entitled to a list of the names and addresses of Trust Certificateholders from time to time upon request therefor.

(b)               The Certificate Administrator shall include in any Form 10-D any written request received in accordance with Section 5.07(a) prior to the Distribution Date to which the Form 10-D relates (and on or after the Distribution Date preceding such Distribution Date) from a Trust Certificateholder or Certificate Owner to communicate with other Trust Certificateholders or Certificate Owners related to Trust Certificateholders or Certificate Owners exercising their rights under the terms of this Agreement.

(c)               In verifying the identity of any Trust Certificateholder or Certificate Owner in connection with any request to communicate, (i) if the Trust Certificateholder or Certificate Owner is the holder of record with respect to any Trust Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall not require any further verification or (ii) if the Trust Certificateholder or Certificate Owner is not the holder of record with respect to any Trust Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall require no more than (x) a written certification from such Trust Certificateholder or Certificate Owner that it is the beneficial owner of a Trust Certificate and (y) one of the following documents

- 398 -

confirming ownership of such Trust Certificate: a trade confirmation, an account statement, a medallion stamp guaranteed letter from a broker-dealer, or another document acceptable to the Certificate Administrator that is similar to any of the foregoing documents.

Any Trust Certificateholder or Certificate Owner will be responsible for its own expenses in making any Communication Request, but will not be required to bear any expenses of the Certificate Administrator. Any expenses the Certificate Administrator incurs in connection with any request to communicate will be paid by the Trust.

Section 5.08           Actions of Trust Certificateholders.

(a)               Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by Trust Certificateholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Trust Certificateholders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Certificate Administrator and, when required, to the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer.

(b)               The fact and date of the execution by any Trust Certificateholder of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any reasonable manner which the Certificate Administrator deems sufficient.

(c)               Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act by a Trust Certificateholder shall bind every Holder of every Trust Certificate issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, or omitted to be done, by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Trust Certificate.

(d)               The Certificate Administrator or Certificate Registrar may require such additional proof of any matter referred to in this Section 5.08 as it shall deem necessary.

- 399 -

Any entity into which the Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Authenticating Agent shall be party, or any entity succeeding to the corporate agency business of the Authenticating Agent, shall be the Authenticating Agent without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Certificate Administrator or the Authenticating Agent.

The Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving at least 30 days’ advance written notice of resignation to the Certificate Administrator and the Depositor. The Certificate Administrator may at any time terminate the agency of the Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to the Authenticating Agent and the Depositor. Upon receiving a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time the Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.09, the Certificate Administrator promptly shall appoint a successor Authenticating Agent, which shall be acceptable to the Depositor, and shall mail notice of such appointment to all Trust Certificateholders. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Authenticating Agent herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 5.09.

The Authenticating Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any action taken by it as such at the direction of the Certificate Administrator. Any compensation paid to the Authenticating Agent shall be an unreimbursable expense of the Certificate Administrator.

The Certificate Administrator shall be, and shall perform all the duties of, the Custodian hereunder or may appoint one or more Custodians to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files as agent for the Certificate Administrator, by entering into a Custodial Agreement (in the event the Certificate Administrator is not the Custodian) that is consistent in all material respects with this Agreement. The Certificate Administrator shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor of any appointment of a Custodian. The Certificate Administrator agrees to comply with the terms of each Custodial Agreement, to enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the Custodian for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and the Serviced Companion Loan Holders and to cause any Custodian appointed by the Certificate Administrator to comply with any provision of this Agreement that purports to require such Custodian to act or refrain from acting. Each Custodian shall: (i) except in the case of the initial Custodian, be a depository institution subject to supervision by federal or state authority; (ii) have a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000; (iii) except in the case of the initial Custodian, have a long term unsecured debt rating of at least “BBB” from S&P and “BBB” from Fitch; and (iv) be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File. Each Custodial Agreement may be amended only as provided in Section 12.07 of this Agreement. Any compensation paid to the Custodian shall be an unreimbursable expense of the Certificate Administrator. The Certificate Administrator shall serve as the initial Custodian and shall be deemed appointed as Custodian at all times that no other party

- 400 -

is so appointed in accordance with this Section 5.10. The Custodian, if the Custodian is not the Certificate Administrator, shall maintain a fidelity bond in the form and amount that are customary for securitizations similar to the securitization evidenced by this Agreement, with the Certificate Administrator named as loss payee. The Custodian shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if one of its respective Affiliates has such fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Custodian. In addition, the Custodian shall keep in force during the term of this Agreement a policy or policies of insurance covering loss occasioned by the errors and omissions of its officers and employees in connection with its obligations hereunder in the form and amount that are customary for securitizations similar to the securitization evidenced by this Agreement, with the Certificate Administrator named as loss payee. All fidelity bonds and policies of errors and omissions insurance obtained under this Section 5.10 shall be issued by a Qualified Insurer, or by any other insurer with respect to which the Rating Agencies have provided to the Trustee a Rating Agency Confirmation. The Custodian shall be subject to the same obligations and standard of care as would be imposed on the Certificate Administrator hereunder in connection with the retention of Mortgage Files directly by the Certificate Administrator. Upon termination or resignation of any Custodian appointed by it, the Certificate Administrator may appoint another Custodian meeting the foregoing requirements. The appointment of a Custodian shall not relieve the Certificate Administrator from any of its obligations hereunder, and the Certificate Administrator shall remain responsible for all acts and omissions of the Custodian. In the event the Certificate Administrator is the Custodian, the Custodian may self-insure.

Section 5.11           Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Certificate Registrar shall maintain or cause to be maintained an office or offices or agency or agencies where Trust Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Certificate Registrar in respect of the Trust Certificates and this Agreement may be served. The Certificate Registrar initially designates its office at 1505 Energy Park Drive, St. Paul, Minnesota 55108, as its office for such purposes. The Certificate Registrar shall give prompt written notice to the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

Section 5.12           Voting Procedures. With respect to any matters submitted to Trust Certificateholders for a vote, the Certificate Administrator shall administer such vote through the Depository with respect to Global Certificates and directly with registered Holders by mail with respect to Definitive Certificates. In each case, such vote shall be administered in accordance with the following procedures, unless different procedures are otherwise described herein with respect to a specific vote:

(a)               Any matter submitted to Certificateholders for a vote shall be announced in a notice prepared by the Certificate Administrator. Such notice shall include the record date determined by the Certificate Administrator for purposes of the vote and a voting deadline which, unless otherwise specifically contemplated herein for any particular matter, shall be no less than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is distributed. The notice and related ballot shall be sent to Holders of Global Certificates through the Depository and by mail to the registered Holders of Definitive Certificates. In addition, the notice and related ballot shall be posted to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Notices delivered in this manner

- 401 -

shall be considered delivered to all Holders regardless of whether any Holder actually receives the notice and ballot.

(b)               In connection with any vote administered pursuant to this Agreement, voting Holders shall be required to certify their holdings in the manner set forth on the ballot, unless a specific manner is otherwise provided herein. Holders may only vote in accordance with their Voting Rights. Voting Rights with respect to any outstanding Class of Trust Certificates shall be calculated by the Certificate Administrator in accordance with the definition of Voting Rights as of the record date for the vote. Only Classes with an outstanding Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, as applicable, greater than zero as of the record date of the vote shall be permitted to vote. Once a Holder has cast its vote, the vote may be changed or retracted on or before the vote deadline. Any changes or retractions shall be communicated by the Trust Certificateholder to the Certificate Administrator in writing on a ballot. After the vote deadline has passed, votes may not be changed or retracted by any Holder unless the Holder wishing to change or retract its vote holds a sufficient portion of the Voting Rights such that the Holder, by its vote alone, could approve or deny the proposition subject to a vote without taking into consideration the votes cast by any other Holder. Transferees or purchasers of any Class of Trust Certificates are subject to and shall be bound by all votes of Holders initiated or conducted prior to its acquisition of such Trust Certificates.

(c)               The Certificate Administrator may take up to fifteen (15) Business Days to tabulate the results of any vote. The Certificate Administrator shall use its reasonable efforts to resolve any illegible or incomplete ballots received prior to the voting deadline. Illegible or incomplete ballots that are received on the voting deadline or that cannot be resolved by the voting deadline shall not be counted. Promptly after the votes are tabulated, the Certificate Administrator shall prepare a notice announcing the results of the vote. Such notice shall include the percentage of Voting Rights in favor of the proposition, the percentage against the proposition and the percentage abstaining. In addition, the notice will announce whether the proposition has been adopted by Trust Certificateholders. The notice shall be distributed in accordance with the methods described in Section 5.12(a) above. The Certificate Administrator shall also include such notice on the Form 10-D prepared in connection with the distribution period that corresponds with the date such notice is distributed. All vote tabulations shall be final and the Certificate Administrator shall not, absent manifest error, re-tabulate the votes or conduct a new vote for the same proposition.

(d)               Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering any vote shall be borne by the Trust. The Certificate Administrator is under no obligation to advise Holders about the matter being voted on or answer questions other than process-related questions regarding the administration of the vote.

(e)               If any party to this Agreement believes a vote of Trust Certificateholders is needed for some matter related to the administration of the Trust that is not specifically contemplated herein, such party may request the Certificate Administrator to conduct a vote and the Certificate Administrator will conduct the requested vote in accordance with these procedures. Unless specifically provided herein, all such votes require a majority of Trust Certificateholders to carry a proposition.

In such event, the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund (payable out of the Collection Account or the applicable Whole Loan Custodial Account if and to the extent with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan and then out of the Collection Account, provided that to the extent that the amount relates to a Serviced Whole Loan, is required under the related Co-Lender Agreement to be borne by the holder of a related Serviced Companion Loan and is paid from the Collection Account because funds on deposit in the applicable Whole Loan Custodial Account are insufficient to pay such indemnification, then the Master Servicer shall from time to time thereafter use amounts otherwise payable to the holder of such Serviced Companion Loan to deposit into the Collection Account the amount so paid from the Collection Account), and the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account or the applicable Whole Loan Custodial Account, as applicable, as provided in Section 3.06 and Section 3.06A of this Agreement.

Each of the related Outside Servicer, the related Outside Special Servicer or the related Outside Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement out of general collections in the Collection Account for the Trust’s pro rata share of any fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan as to which the securitization trust created under the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement or any of the parties thereto are entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the terms of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement (to the extent amounts on deposit in the related “Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account” or “Whole Loan Custodial Account” (as

  - 405 -  

 

each such term or any analogous term is defined in the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement) are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts).

Section 6.04           Limitation on Resignation of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor.

(a)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may resign, assign its respective rights and delegate its respective duties and obligations under this Agreement by giving written notice thereof to the other such party, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator (who shall post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website for review by Privileged Persons in accordance with Section 4.02(a)), the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Serviced Companion Loan Holders and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider; provided that, with respect to any of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer: (i) the successor accepting such assignment and delegation (A) shall be an established mortgage finance entity, bank or other entity regularly engaged in the servicing of commercial mortgage loans, organized and doing business under the laws of any state of the United States, the District of Columbia or the United States, authorized under such laws to perform the duties of a servicer of mortgage loans or a Person resulting from a merger, consolidation or succession that is permitted under Section 6.02 of this Agreement and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, under the related Co-Lender Agreement and (B) shall execute and deliver to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator an agreement which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, under this Agreement from and after the date of such agreement; (ii) each Rating Agency has delivered to the Trustee a Rating Agency Confirmation; (iii) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall not be released from its obligations under this Agreement that arose prior to the effective date of such assignment and delegation under this Section 6.04; (iv) the rate at which the Servicing Fee or Special Servicing Compensation, as applicable (or any component thereof) is calculated shall not exceed the rate then in effect; (v) for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the successor Special Servicer is acceptable to the Controlling Class Representative (and, if a Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan is affected, the successor Special Servicer is acceptable to the related Outside Controlling Note Holder); (vi) the resigning Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be responsible for the reasonable costs and expenses of each other party hereto, the Trust and the Rating Agencies in connection with such transfer; (vii) none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer nor any of their Affiliates shall in any event be appointed as successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer; and (viii) none of any Subsequent Third Party Purchaser, any Loan-Specific Third Party Purchaser or any of its Risk Retention Affiliates shall in any event be appointed as successor Master Servicer. Upon acceptance of such assignment and delegation, the purchaser or transferee shall be the successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder.

(b)               Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.34, this Section 6.04 and Section 6.08(j), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not resign from their respective obligations and duties hereby imposed on them except upon determination that such duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law; provided that, on and after the time the Trustee receives notice of resignation by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer upon

  - 406 -  

 

determination that such duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law, the Trustee (solely with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) shall, subject to the terms and provisions of Section 7.02 of this Agreement as if the resigning party was a Terminated Party, be its successor in all respects in its capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, as though the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, had received a notice of termination. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (obtained at the resigning Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s expense) to such effect delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator.

Except as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, no resignation or removal of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as contemplated herein shall become effective until the Trustee (solely with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or a successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer shall have assumed the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, responsibilities, duties, liabilities and obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer nor any of their Affiliates may be appointed as successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer. If no successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer can be obtained to perform such obligations for the same compensation to which the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer would have been entitled, additional amounts payable to such successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall be payable out of the Trust; provided that, for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall consult with the Controlling Class Representative prior to the appointment of a successor Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor at a servicing or operating advisor compensation in excess of that permitted to the terminated Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor, as applicable.

If the Trustee or an Affiliate acts pursuant to this Section 6.04 as successor to the resigning Master Servicer, it may reduce the Excess Servicing Fee Rate to the extent that the Trustee’s or such Affiliate’s compensation as successor Master Servicer would otherwise be below the market rate servicing compensation. If the Trustee elects to appoint a successor to the resigning Master Servicer other than itself or an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 6.04, it may reduce the Excess Servicing Fee Rate to the extent reasonably necessary (in the sole discretion of the Trustee) for the Trustee to appoint a qualified successor Master Servicer that meets the requirements of this Section 6.04.

(c)               The Operating Advisor may resign from its obligations and duties under this Agreement (a) upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the parties to this Agreement, any applicable Directing Holder and any applicable Consulting Parties and (b) upon the appointment of, and the acceptance of such appointment by, a successor operating advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor and receipt by the Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency. Except as provided in Section 6.04(d), no such resignation by the Operating Advisor shall become effective until a replacement Operating Advisor shall have assumed the resigning Operating Advisor’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement. The successor entity assuming the obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement shall be entitled to the compensation to which the Operating Advisor would have been entitled hereunder after the date of assumption of such obligations. If no successor Operating Advisor can be obtained to perform such obligations for such compensation, additional amounts payable to such successor Operating

  - 407 -  

 

Advisor shall be payable out of the Trust; provided that, for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall consult with the Controlling Class Representative prior to the appointment of a successor Operating Advisor at an operating advisor compensation in excess of that permitted to the terminated Operating Advisor. If no successor Operating Advisor has been appointed and accepted such appointment within 60 days after the resigning Operating Advisor’s giving of notice of resignation, the resigning Operating Advisor may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor. The resigning Operating Advisor shall pay all costs and expenses associated with its resignation and the transfer of its duties (including costs and expenses incurred by each other party hereto, the Trust and the Rating Agencies) pursuant to this Section 6.04.

(d)               In addition, in the event that, at any time following the end of the HRR Interest Transfer Restriction Period there are no Classes of Certificates or Uncertificated Interests outstanding other than the Control Eligible Certificates, the Combined VRR Interest and the Class R Certificates, then all of the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement (other than with respect to the Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loans) shall terminate without payment of any penalty or termination fee (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights arising out of events occurring prior to such termination). If the Operating Advisor is terminated pursuant to the foregoing sentence, then no replacement Operating Advisor shall be appointed to act in such capacity.

Section 6.05           Rights of the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator in Respect of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall afford the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and, subject to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, each Rating Agency, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours access to all records maintained by it in respect of its rights and obligations hereunder and access to its officers responsible for such obligations, if reasonably related to the performance of the obligations of such Person under this Agreement. Upon request, if reasonably related to the performance of the obligations of such Person under this Agreement, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall furnish to the Depositor, each of the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator its most recent publicly available annual financial statements or those of its public parent. The Depositor is not obligated to monitor or supervise the performance of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee under this Agreement. The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder which are in default and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of such Person hereunder or exercise its rights hereunder, provided that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. In the event the Depositor or its designee undertakes any such action it will be reimbursed by the Trust Fund from the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.06 and Section 6.03 of this Agreement to the extent not recoverable from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. None of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer (with respect to the Special Servicer) or the Special Servicer (with respect to the Master Servicer) shall have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, and no such Person is obligated to

  - 408 -  

 

monitor or supervise the performance of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Depositor, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator and neither such Person is obligated to monitor or supervise the performance of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator under this Agreement or otherwise.

Each of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, and the Special Servicer shall furnish such reports, certifications and information as are reasonably requested by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in order to enable such requesting party to perform its duties hereunder, provided that for the avoidance of doubt, this shall not require any Person to prepare any reports, certificates and information not required to be prepared hereunder.

Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be under any obligation to disclose confidential or proprietary information pursuant to this Section.

Section 6.06           Master Servicer, Special Servicer as Owner of a Trust Certificate. The Master Servicer or an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Special Servicer may become the Holder (or with respect to a Global Certificate, Certificate Owner) of any Trust Certificate with the same rights it would have if it were not the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or an Affiliate thereof, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. If, at any time during which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is the Holder or Certificate Owner of any Trust Certificate, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer proposes to take action (including for this purpose, omitting to take action) that (i) is not expressly prohibited by the terms hereof and would not, in the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s good faith judgment, violate the Servicing Standard, and (ii) if taken, might nonetheless, in the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s good faith judgment, be considered by other Persons to violate the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may seek the approval of the Trust Certificateholders and any affected Serviced Companion Loan Holder to such action by delivering to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator a written notice that (i) states that it is delivered pursuant to this Section 6.06, (ii) identifies the Percentage Interest in each Class of Trust Certificates beneficially owned by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, and (iii) describes in reasonable detail the action that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer proposes to take. The Certificate Administrator, upon receipt of such notice, shall forward it to the Trust Certificateholders (other than the Master Servicer and its Affiliates or the Special Servicer and its Affiliates, as appropriate) together with such instructions for response as the Certificate Administrator shall reasonably determine. If at any time Trust Certificateholders holding greater than 50% of the Voting Rights of all Trust Certificateholders (calculated without regard to the Trust Certificates beneficially owned by the Master Servicer or its Affiliates or the Special Servicer or its Affiliates) and any affected Serviced Companion Loan Holder shall have consented in writing to the proposal described in the written notice, and if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall act as proposed in the written notice, such action shall be deemed to comply with the Servicing Standard. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of the reasonable expenses of the Certificate Administrator incurred pursuant to this paragraph. It is not the intent of the foregoing provision

  - 409 -  

 

that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer be permitted to invoke the procedure set forth herein with respect to routine servicing matters arising hereunder, except in the case of unusual circumstances.

Section 6.07           Rating Agency Fees. The Depositor shall pay (or cause to be paid) the annual fees of each Rating Agency including, but not limited to, surveillance fees.

Upon a termination (pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 6.08(a)) or a resignation (pursuant to Section 6.04(b) of this Agreement) of the Special Servicer with respect to any Serviced Loan(s) or Serviced Whole Loan, the applicable Directing Holder shall appoint a successor Special Servicer with respect to such Serviced Loan(s) or the related Serviced Whole Loan, as the case may be; provided, however, that (A) such successor shall meet the requirements set forth in Section 7.02 of this Agreement, (B) the applicable Directing Holder shall (at no expense to the Trust) obtain and deliver to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to such proposed successor acting as a Special Servicer and (C) in the case of the appointment of a successor Special Servicer with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the applicable Directing Holder shall (at no expense to the Trust or any related Other Securitization Trust) obtain and deliver to the certificate administrator (if any) and the trustee for each related Other Securitization Trust (with a copy to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee) a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such proposed successor acting as a Special Servicer for each related Serviced Companion Loan.

Special Servicer and the replacement thereof with the proposed successor (with the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket costs and expenses associated with obtaining such Rating Agency Confirmation to be an expense of such Holders), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice of the requested vote to all Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner by posting such notice on its internet website and by mailing at their addresses appearing in the Certificate Register. Upon the affirmative vote of (a) the Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 66-2/3% of the Pooled Voting Rights allocable to the Certificates of those Holders that voted on such matter (provided that Holders representing the applicable Certificateholder Quorum vote on the matter) or (b) the Holders of Certificates that are Non-Reduced Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the Pooled Voting Rights allocable to each such Class of Non-Reduced Certificates, the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights (subject to Section 3.12, Section 6.03 and Section 6.08(g) of this Agreement) and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Serviced Loans (other than any Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan and any Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan) and appoint the proposed successor Special Servicer, and the proposed successor Special Servicer shall succeed to the duties of the Special Servicer with respect to the Serviced Loans (other than any Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan and any Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan) all as if a removal and replacement were occurring pursuant to Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 of this Agreement; provided that if such affirmative vote is not achieved within 180 days of the initial request for a vote to terminate and replace the Special Servicer, then such vote shall have no force and effect. The provisions set forth in the foregoing sentences of this paragraph shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of solely the Certificateholders and the Trustee as between each other. The Special Servicer shall not have any cause of action based upon or arising from any breach or alleged breach of such provisions. As between the Special Servicer, on the one hand, and the Certificateholders, on the other, the Certificateholders shall be entitled in their sole discretion to vote for the termination or not vote for the termination of the Special Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall include on each Distribution Date Statement a statement that each Certificateholder and Certificate Owner may access such notices on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and each Certificateholder and Certificate Owner may register to receive email notifications when such notices are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Any such appointment of a successor Special Servicer with respect to the Serviced Loans (other than any Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan and any Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan) based on a Certificateholder vote shall be subject to the receipt of a Rating Agency Confirmation. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement from the requesting Certificateholders for the reasonable expenses of posting notices of such requests.

(iii)                      The procedures for removing a Special Servicer with respect to a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan if an applicable Control Termination Event (and a related Control Appraisal Period with respect to such Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan) have occurred and are continuing, shall be as follows (with references to “Applicable Certificates” in this paragraph meaning, collectively, in the aggregate, (1) the Certificates and (2) the related Loan-Specific Certificates): Upon (I) the written direction of Holders of Applicable Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights of all of the Applicable Certificates requesting a vote to terminate and replace the Special

If such affirmative vote of the Holders of the required Certificates contemplated by clause (A) of the second preceding sentence is not achieved within 180 days of the initial request for such vote (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is the date on the which the aforementioned notice was mailed to the Certificateholders), then the Trustee shall have no obligation to remove the Special Servicer and such recommendation shall lapse and have no force or effect. Prior to the appointment of any replacement special servicer, such replacement special servicer shall have agreed to succeed to the obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement with respect to the Serviced Loans (as a collective whole), and to act as the Special Servicer’s successor hereunder.

(ii)                         In addition, with respect to a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a related Loan-Specific Control Termination Event (or, if the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Securitization Transaction is an EHRI Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Securitization, at any time), if the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that (1) the Special Servicer has failed to comply with the Servicing Standard and (2) a replacement of the Special Servicer would be in the best interest of the related Loan-Specific Certificateholders and any related Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest Owner (as a collective whole), the Operating Advisor shall deliver to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, with a copy to the Special Servicer, a written recommendation in the form of Exhibit T attached hereto (which form may be modified or supplemented from time to time to cure any ambiguity or error or to incorporate any additional information, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, provided that in no event shall the information or any other content included in such written recommendation contravene any provision of this Agreement) detailing the reasons supporting its position (along with relevant information justifying its recommendation), recommending a replacement special servicer with respect to the subject Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan, meeting the applicable requirements of this Agreement, which recommended special servicer has agreed to succeed the then-current applicable Special Servicer with respect to the subject Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan if appointed in accordance herewith, and requesting a vote on whether the existing Special Servicer should be replaced with respect to the subject Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan. In any such event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post a copy of such recommendation on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and by mail send notice of such recommendation to all of the related Loan-Specific Certificateholders and any related Loan-Specific Uncertificated Interest Owner, asking them to vote whether they wish to remove the Special Servicer with respect to the subject

Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan. Upon (A) the affirmative vote of the Holders of the related Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of such Loan-Specific Principal Balance Certificates of those Holders that voted on the matter (provided that Holders representing the applicable Certificateholder Quorum vote on the matter within 180 days of the initial request for a vote (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is the date on the which the aforementioned notice was mailed to the related Loan-Specific Certificateholders)) and (B) receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency by the Certificate Administrator following satisfaction of the foregoing clause (A), the Trustee shall (x) terminate all of the rights (subject to Section 3.12, Section 6.03 and Section 6.08(g) of this Agreement) and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement with respect to the subject Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan, (y) appoint the recommended successor Special Servicer with respect to the subject Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan and (z) promptly notify such outgoing Special Servicer of the effective date of such termination. The reasonable fees and out of pocket costs and expenses associated with obtaining such Rating Agency Confirmation and administering such vote shall be an Additional Trust Fund Expense payable out of collections on the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan. If such affirmative vote of the Holders of the required related Loan-Specific Certificates contemplated by clause (A) of the second preceding sentence is not achieved within 180 days of the initial request for such vote (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is the date on the which the aforementioned notice was mailed to the related Loan-Specific Certificateholders), then the Trustee shall have no obligation to remove the applicable Special Servicer and such recommendation shall lapse and have no force or effect. Prior to the appointment of any replacement special servicer, such replacement special servicer shall have agreed to succeed to the obligations of the applicable Special Servicer under this Agreement with respect to the subject Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan, and to act as the applicable Special Servicer’s successor hereunder.

(iii)                      No penalty or fee shall be payable to the terminated Special Servicer with respect to any termination pursuant to this Section 6.08(b). If the entity acting as Special Servicer is terminated pursuant to this Section 6.08(b), then (notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary) the terminated party may not subsequently be re-appointed as the Special Servicer hereunder with respect to the Serviced Loan(s) or Serviced Whole Loan(s), as applicable, as to which it was terminated pursuant to this Section 6.08(b), any other section of this Agreement or any Co-Lender Agreement.

(c)               In no event may a successor Special Servicer be a current or former Operating Advisor or Asset Representations Reviewer or any Affiliate of such current or former Operating Advisor or Asset Representations Reviewer. Further, such successor must be a Person that (i) satisfies all of the eligibility requirements applicable to special servicers contained in this Agreement and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, in the related Co-Lender Agreement, (ii) is not obligated or allowed to pay the Operating Advisor (x) any fees or otherwise compensate the Operating Advisor in respect of its obligations under this Agreement or (y) for the appointment of the successor Special Servicer or the recommendation by the Operating Advisor for the replacement Special Servicer to become the Special Servicer, (iii) is not entitled to waive any compensation from the Operating Advisor and (iv) is not entitled to receive any fee from the

  - 415 -  

 

Operating Advisor for its appointment as successor Special Servicer, in each case, unless expressly approved by 100% of the Trust Certificateholders.

(d)               The appointment of any such successor Special Servicer shall not relieve the Master Servicer or the Trustee of their respective obligations to make Advances as set forth herein; provided, however, the initial Special Servicer specified in Section 3.21(a) of this Agreement shall not be liable for any actions or any inaction of such successor Special Servicer. Any termination fee payable to the terminated Special Servicer and any costs incurred by the Trust or the terminated Special Servicer in connection with the replacement of a Special Servicer shall be paid by the Controlling Class Representative, the Trust Certificateholders or the Serviced Companion Loan Holder so terminating the Special Servicer and shall not in any event be an expense of the Trust Fund.

(e)               No termination of the Special Servicer and appointment of a successor Special Servicer shall be effective until (i) the successor Special Servicer shall have executed and delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator an agreement which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by the Special Servicer under this Agreement from and after the date of such agreement, (ii) the Depositor and, if applicable, each related Other Depositor shall have received the written notice and information with respect to the successor Special Servicer as set forth in Section 10.02(a) and (iii) subject to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, each Rating Agency has delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator a Rating Agency Confirmation and, if required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), each Companion Loan Rating Agency has delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator and their respective counterparts with respect to the Other Securitization Trust a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation, in each case with respect to such termination and appointment of a successor.

(f)                Any successor Special Servicer shall be deemed to make the representations and warranties provided for in Section 2.06(a) of this Agreement mutatis mutandis as of the date of its succession.

(g)               In the event that the Special Servicer is terminated pursuant to this Section 6.08, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Special Servicer, terminate all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and in and to the applicable Mortgage Loan(s) and/or Serviced Whole Loan(s) and the proceeds thereof, other than any rights the Special Servicer may have hereunder as a Trust Certificateholder and any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination or that survive termination (including, without limitation, the right to receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement, plus interest at the Advance Rate on such amounts until received to the extent such amounts bear interest as provided in this Agreement, with respect to periods prior to the date of such termination and the right to the benefits of Section 6.03 of this Agreement and the right to receive ongoing Workout Fees in accordance with the terms hereof).

(h)               If (1) a replacement special servicer is appointed with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan or related REO Property in accordance with Article VII or this Section 6.08 or (2) an Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer is appointed with respect to an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan, there may be additional parties acting as Special Servicer

Accordingly, unless the context clearly requires otherwise: (i) when used in the context of imposing duties and obligations on the Special Servicer hereunder or the performance of such duties and obligations, the term “Special Servicer” shall mean (A) the applicable Whole Loan Special Servicer, insofar as such duties and obligations relate to the subject Serviced Whole Loan or any related REO Property, (B) the applicable Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer, insofar as such duties and obligations relate to the subject Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property and (C) the General Special Servicer, in all other cases (provided, that in Section 3.15, Section 6.08(j) and Article VII of this Agreement, the term “Special Servicer” shall mean each of the Whole Loan Special Servicers, the Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicers (if any) and the General Special Servicer); (ii) when used in the context of identifying the recipient of any information, funds, documents, instruments and/or other items, the term “Special Servicer” shall mean (A) the applicable Whole Loan Special Servicer, insofar as such information, funds, documents, instruments and/or other items relate to the subject Serviced Whole Loan or any related REO Property, (B) the applicable Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer, insofar as such information, funds, documents, instruments and/or other items relate to the subject Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property and (C) the General Special Servicer, in all other cases; (iii) when used in the context of granting the Special Servicer the right to purchase all of the Trust Loans and all other property held by the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01 of this Agreement, the term “Special Servicer” shall mean the General Special Servicer only; (iv) when used in the context of granting the Special Servicer the right to purchase a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan and related property held by the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 9.01 of this Agreement, the term “Special Servicer” shall mean the Special Servicer of the related Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan only; (v) when used in the context of the Special Servicer being replaced pursuant to this Section 6.08 by the applicable Directing Holder or the applicable Trust Certificateholders, the term “Special Servicer” shall mean the General Special Servicer, the applicable Whole Loan Special Servicer or the applicable Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer, as applicable; (vi) when used in the context of granting the Special Servicer any protections, limitations on liability, immunities and/or indemnities hereunder, the term “Special Servicer” shall mean each of the Whole Loan Special Servicers, the Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicers (if any) and the General Special Servicer; and (vii) when used in the context of requiring indemnification from, imposing liability on, or exercising any remedies against, the Special Servicer for any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant hereunder or for any negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the performance of duties and obligations hereunder or any negligent disregard of such duties and obligations or otherwise holding the Special Servicer responsible for any of the foregoing, the term “Special Servicer” shall mean the applicable Whole Loan Special Servicer, the applicable Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer or the General Special Servicer, as applicable.

(i)                 References in this Agreement to “General Special Servicer” mean the Person performing the duties and obligations of special servicer with respect to the Mortgage Pool (exclusive of (A) any Serviced Whole Loan or related REO Property as to which a different Whole Loan Special Servicer has been appointed with respect thereto and (B) any Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property as to which an Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer has been appointed with respect thereto).

(j)                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.08, if the Special Servicer obtains knowledge that it is, or has become, a Borrower Party with respect to

  - 417 -  

 

any Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, then the Special Servicer shall resign in such capacity with respect to such Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan. The applicable Directing Holder shall appoint (and replace with or without cause) the Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer, as successor to the resigning Special Servicer, for the related Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan in accordance with this Agreement. If an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan is also an Excluded Mortgage Loan, the largest Controlling Class Certificateholder (by Certificate Balance) that is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall be entitled to appoint (and replace with or without cause) the Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer for the related Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan in accordance with this Agreement. If a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, neither the Controlling Class Representative nor any other Controlling Class Certificateholder shall be entitled to remove or replace the Special Servicer with respect to any Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan. If a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the largest Controlling Class Certificateholder that is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall have the right to appoint the Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer. If there is no applicable Directing Holder entitled to appoint an Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer for an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan (or if there is an applicable Directing Holder so entitled but it has not appointed a replacement special servicer for the related Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage within 30 days), then the Certificate Administrator shall provide written notice to the resigning Special Servicer that such Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer has not been appointed and such resigning Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to appoint such Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer. The resigning Special Servicer shall not have any liability for the actions or inactions of the newly appointed Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer, and absent willful misconduct, bad faith, fraud or negligence on the part of such resigning Special Servicer, the resigning Special Servicer and its directors, members, managers, officers, employees and agents shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Trust against any and all losses or liability incurred in connection with any legal action resulting from the actions or inactions of the Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer. It shall be a condition to the appointment of any such Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer that (i) such Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect such appointment to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee and, if the related Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan is part of a Serviced Whole Loan, a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such appointment to the certificate administrator (if any) and the trustee for each related Other Securitization Trust (with a copy to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee), (ii) such Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer satisfies all of the eligibility requirements applicable to the Special Servicer set forth in this Agreement and (iii) such Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer delivers to the Depositor (and the Certificate Administrator) and any applicable Other Depositor (and any applicable Other Exchange Act Reporting Party), the information, if any, required under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act regarding itself in its role as Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer. For the avoidance of doubt, the newly appointed Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer (and not the resigning Special Servicer) shall be the party responsible to comply with the conditions of the previous sentence.

If at any time the Person that had acted as the Special Servicer for any Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan prior to such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as the case may be, becoming an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan is no longer a Borrower Party (including, without limitation, as a result of the related Mortgaged Property becoming REO Property or an assumption

  - 418 -  

 

of the Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan) with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as the case may be, (1) the related Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer shall resign, (2) such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as the case may be, shall no longer be an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan, (3) such original Special Servicer shall become the Special Servicer again for such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as the case may be, and (4) such original Special Servicer shall be entitled to all Special Servicing Compensation and Additional Special Servicing Compensation with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as the case may be, earned during such time on and after such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as the case may be, is no longer an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan.

The Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer shall perform all of the obligations of the Special Servicer for the related Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan and will be entitled to all Special Servicing Compensation and Additional Special Servicing Compensation with respect to such Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan earned after its appointment as the Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer and during such time as the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan is an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan (provided that the Special Servicer shall remain entitled to all Special Servicing Compensation and Additional Special Servicing Compensation with respect to the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans that are not Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loans during such time).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.08(j), in the case of any Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan, the related Outside Controlling Note Holder will have the right to appoint an Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer.

(k)               If a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer, a related Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer, or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has actual knowledge that a Mortgage Loan is no longer an Excluded Mortgage Loan, an Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loan or an Excluded Special Servicer Mortgage Loan, as applicable, the Master Servicer, the related Excluded Mortgage Loan Special Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide prompt written notice thereof to each of the other parties to this Agreement.

Section 6.09           The Directing Holder, the Controlling Class Representative and the Risk Retention Consultation Party.

(a)               The applicable Directing Holder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer, with respect to the applicable Serviced Loan(s) that are Specially Serviced Loan(s) and (2) the Special Servicer, with respect to the applicable Serviced Loan(s) that are Performing Serviced Loan(s), as to all Major Decisions, in each case as set forth in this Section 6.09. With respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to exercise consultation and, to the extent provided in Section 3.01(i), consent rights (if any) and attend annual meetings with the related Outside Servicer and the related Outside Special Servicer, in each case, to the extent the holder of such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is entitled to such rights pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement.

In addition, except as set forth in, and in any event subject to, Section 6.09(b) and the subsequent paragraphs of this Section 6.09(a), (1) the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to take any of the actions constituting a Major Decision unless the Master Servicer and the Special

  - 419 -  

 

Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall take such action, subject to the consent of the Special Servicer, who shall have 15 Business Days (or 60 days with respect to the determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default) (from the date that the Special Servicer receives the information from the Master Servicer) to analyze and make a recommendation regarding such Major Decision (provided that if the Special Servicer does not consent, or notify the Master Servicer that it will not consent, to such Major Decision within the required 15 Business Days or 60 days, as applicable, the Special Servicer shall be deemed to have consented to such Major Decision), and (2) the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to take, or to consent to the Master Servicer’s taking, any of the actions constituting a Major Decision as to which the applicable Directing Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or in the case of a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) days (or, in the case of a Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan, such other period contemplated by the related Co-Lender Agreement)) after receipt of the related Major Decision Reporting Package from the Special Servicer (provided that if such written objection has not been received by the Special Servicer within such ten (10) Business Day period or twenty (20) day period (or, in the case of a Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan, such other period contemplated by the related Co-Lender Agreement), as applicable, then such applicable Directing Holder will be deemed to have approved such action).

Furthermore, any applicable Directing Holder (in the case of an Outside Controlling Note Holder, to the extent provided in the related Co-Lender Agreement) may direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to any Serviced Loan as such party may reasonably deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made herein.

In addition, prior to taking, or consenting to the Master Servicer’s taking of, any Major Decision, the Special Servicer shall consult (on a non-binding basis) with any applicable Consulting Parties (including, with respect to the Operating Advisor when it is an applicable Consulting Party under the circumstances set forth in Section 3.29 and, with respect to the Risk Retention Consultation Parties under the circumstances set forth in the third following paragraph and, with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan Holder, under the circumstances contemplated by the related Co-Lender Agreement) in connection with any Major Decision with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and consider alternative actions recommended by such Consulting Parties, but, in the case of the Controlling Class Representative when it is a Consulting Party, only to the extent such consultation with, or consent of, the Controlling Class Representative would have been required prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event; provided that each such consultation is not binding on the Special Servicer; and provided, further, that the Controlling Class Representative (when it is an applicable Consulting Party) may consult regarding a Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan only if and to the extent that the holder of the related Split Mortgage Loan is granted consultation rights under the related Co-Lender Agreement; and provided, further, that, with respect to any matter for which consultation with the Controlling Class Representative is required and no response from the Controlling Class Representative is received within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) the Controlling Class Representative’s receipt of written request for input on such consultation and (ii) the Controlling Class Representative’s receipt of all reasonably requested information and all information required to be delivered to the Controlling Class Representative under this Agreement with respect to such consultation, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be obligated to consult with the Controlling Class Representative on the

  - 420 -  

 

specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of Controlling Class Representative to respond will not relieve the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, from using reasonable efforts to consult with Controlling Class Representative on any future matters with respect to the applicable Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or any other Serviced Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include, without limitation, any Servicing Shift Whole Loan prior to the related Servicing Shift Date), the Special Servicer shall be responsible for obtaining any consent or deemed consent of the related Outside Controlling Note Holder for “Major Decisions” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Co-Lender Agreement) to the extent such consent is required under this Agreement or under the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement. The Special Servicer shall provide all information reasonably requested by any applicable Consulting Party and in the Special Servicer's possession that is necessary in order for such Consulting Party to exercise its consultation rights set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph.

Each Consulting Party shall have consultation rights with respect to such Mortgage Loans and/or Serviced Whole Loans and at such times and/or under such circumstances as contemplated by the definition of “Consulting Party”.

With respect to a Servicing Shift Whole Loan that is a Serviced Outside Controlled Whole Loan, prior to the related Servicing Shift Date, no request for approval of the Controlling Class Representative shall be made on any matter related to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan, except that the Controlling Class Representative (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and only if the related Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Mortgage Loan) may exercise the consultation rights, if any, of the holder of the related Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan with respect to Major Decisions and any proposed sale of such Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan set forth in the applicable Co-Lender Agreement. In addition, the Operating Advisor (when it is an applicable Consulting Party) will be entitled, while a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan is serviced hereunder, to consult on a non-binding basis with the Special Servicer and propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback in respect of any Major Decisions and any proposed sale of such Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan.

With respect to each Major Decision regarding a Serviced Loan as to which any applicable Directing Holder has consent or consultation rights pursuant to this Section 6.09, the Special Servicer shall provide the related Major Decision Reporting Package to the applicable Directing Holder, simultaneously with the Special Servicer’s request for the applicable Directing Holder’s consent or input regarding the related Major Decision. With respect to each Major Decision regarding a Serviced Loan as to which any Risk Retention Consultation Party has consultation rights pursuant to this Section 6.09, the Special Servicer shall provide the related Major Decision Reporting Package to such Risk Retention Consultation Party, simultaneously with the Special Servicer’s request for such Risk Retention Consultation Party’s input regarding the related Major Decision. The Special Servicer shall provide each Major Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor: (i) as to any Specially Serviced Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, promptly after the Special Servicer receives the Directing Holder’s approval or deemed approval of such Major Decision Reporting Package; and (ii) as to any Serviced Loan, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, and regardless of whether a

  - 421 -  

 

Control Termination Event is continuing, simultaneously with the Special Servicer’s written request for the Operating Advisor’s input regarding the related Major Decision. With respect to any particular Major Decision and related Major Decision Reporting Package provided to the Operating Advisor pursuant to this Section 6.09(a), the Special Servicer shall make available to the Operating Advisor one or more Servicing Officers with relevant knowledge regarding the applicable Mortgage Loan and such Major Decision in order to address reasonable questions that the Operating Advisor may have relating to, among other things, such Major Decision and potential conflicts of interest and compensation with respect to such Major Decision.

In addition, (i) for so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan or any Excluded RRCP Mortgage Loan with respect to the applicable Risk Retention Consultation Party), and (ii) during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan or any Excluded RRCP Mortgage Loan with respect to the applicable Risk Retention Consultation Party), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall consult with each Risk Retention Consultation Party on a non-binding basis in connection with any Major Decision that it is processing (and such other matters that are subject to the non-binding consultation rights of such Risk Retention Consultation Party pursuant to this Agreement which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include the matters set forth in Sections 3.09, 3.17(m), 3.24, 7.02 and this Section 6.09 and in the definition of “Acceptable Insurance Default”) and to consider alternative actions recommended by such Risk Retention Consultation Party in respect of such Major Decision (or any other matter requiring consultation with such Risk Retention Consultation Party pursuant to this Agreement); provided that in the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer receives no response from a Risk Retention Consultation Party within 10 days following the Master Servicer’s delivery of information in its possession reasonably requested by such Risk Retention Consultation Party or the Special Servicer’s delivery of the related Major Decision Reporting Package, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be obligated to consult with such Risk Retention Consultation Party on the specific matter (provided, however, that the failure of such Risk Retention Consultation Party to respond will not relieve the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, from using reasonable efforts to consult with such Risk Retention Consultation Party on any future matters with respect to the applicable Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or any other Serviced Mortgage Loan); and provided, further, that if Argentic Services Company LP or an Affiliate thereof is appointed as the Risk Retention Consultation Party and Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, is processing any action that requires consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Party, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, will not be required to consult with its Affiliate. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) no Risk Retention Consulting Party shall have any consultation rights with respect to any related Excluded RRCP Mortgage Loan and (y) any consultation with any Risk Retention Consultation Party under this Agreement shall be on a strictly non-binding basis and shall be subject to all limitations with respect to the procedures and timing for such consultation set forth in this Section 6.09.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by this Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to a Major Decision, or any other matter requiring consent of, or consultation with, any applicable Directing Holder or consultation with any applicable Consulting Party, is necessary to protect the

  - 422 -  

 

interests of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) (as a collective whole as if such Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender (and, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of the related Subordinate Companion Loan(s))), the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, may take any such action without waiting for the applicable Directing Holder’s (or, if applicable, the Special Servicer’s) or any Consulting Party’s, as applicable, response.

Also notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no direction, objection, advice or consultation on the part of any applicable Directing Holder, and no advice or consultation from any applicable Consulting Party, contemplated by this Agreement, may require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate the terms of any Trust Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, any provision of any related Loan Documents, any related Co-Lender Agreement, any intercreditor agreement, applicable law, this Agreement or the REMIC Provisions, including without limitation each of the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or expose any Trust Certificateholder, any Uncertificated Interest Owner, the Trust Fund, any Mortgage Loan Seller (other than with respect to enforcing the rights and remedies against such Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to this Agreement or the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to any Material Defect) or any party to this Agreement or their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents to any claim, suit or liability, or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, or result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions, or materially expand the scope of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement or any Co-Lender Agreement or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to act, or fail to act, in a manner that is not in the best interests of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and/or the Serviced Companion Loan Holders.

In the event the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, determines that a refusal to consent by any applicable Directing Holder or any advice from any applicable Directing Holder or Consulting Party would otherwise cause the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate the terms of any Loan Documents, any related Co-Lender Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, applicable law, the REMIC Provisions or this Agreement, including without limitation, the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, shall disregard such refusal to consent or advice and notify in writing the applicable Directing Holder, the applicable Consulting Parties, the Trustee and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider of its determination, including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. The taking of, or refraining from taking, any action by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer in accordance with the direction of or approval of any applicable Directing Holder or the recommendation of any applicable Consulting Party that does not violate the terms of any Loan Documents, any related Co-Lender Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, any law, the REMIC Provisions or the Servicing Standard or any other provisions of this Agreement, will not result in any liability on the part of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer.

For so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, and subject to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement, the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled, with respect to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to exercise the consent or approval rights set forth in Section 3.01(i) of this Agreement; and for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, and subject to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement, the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled, with respect to each Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to exercise any consultation rights permitted under the related Co-Lender Agreement in respect of “Major Decisions” (or any analogous concept) and the implementation of “Asset Status Reports” (or any analogous concept) under, and within the meaning of, the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and attend an annual meeting with the related Outside Servicer and the related Outside Special Servicer, in each case, to the extent the holder of such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is entitled to such rights pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement; provided that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Trigger Event, any such consultation rights permitted under the related Co-Lender Agreement in respect of “Major Decisions” (or any analogous concept) under, and within the meaning of, the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement shall be exercised by the Controlling Class Representative jointly with the Operating Advisor.

A Directing Holder will have no liability to the Trust Fund, the Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, pursuant to this Agreement, or for error in judgment; provided, however, that the Controlling Class Representative will not be protected against any liability to any Controlling Class Certificateholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of negligent disregard of obligations or duties.

The Risk Retention Consultation Parties shall have no liability to the Trust Fund, any party to this Agreement, any Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment.

  - 424 -  

 

(other than, in the case of the Controlling Class Representative, to a Controlling Class Certificateholder and, in the case of a Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative, to a related Loan-Specific Controlling Class Certificateholder) for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) of this paragraph, and that no Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner may take any action whatsoever against any Directing Holder or any affiliate, director, officer, employee, shareholder, member, partner, agent or principal thereof for having so acted; provided, however, that the rights of a Directing Holder are subject to any related mezzanine intercreditor agreement.

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

(i)                            after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative shall have no right to consent to any action taken or not taken by any party to this Agreement;

(ii)                         after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative shall remain entitled to receive any notices, reports or information to which it is entitled pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the applicable Serviced Loan(s) (other than any Excluded Mortgage Loan), and the Master Servicer, Special Servicer and any other applicable party shall consult with the Controlling Class Representative in connection with any action to be taken or refrained from taking with respect to the applicable Serviced Loan(s) (other than any Excluded Mortgage Loan), but only to the extent consultation with, or consent of, the Controlling Class Representative would have been required under such circumstances prior to the occurrence and continuance of such Control Termination Event; provided, however, that the Controlling Class Representative shall not be permitted to consult with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan while any related Subordinate Companion Loan Holder is the related Outside Controlling Note Holder;

(iii)                      after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative shall have no consultation or consent rights hereunder and no right to receive any notices, reports or information (other than notices, reports or information required to be delivered to all Trust Certificateholders) or any other rights as a Directing Holder or a Consulting Party; provided that each Controlling Class Certificateholder shall maintain the right to exercise Voting Rights for the same purposes as any other Trust Certificateholder under this Agreement (other than with respect to Excluded Controlling Class Mortgage Loans); and

(iv)                     no Person may exercise any of the rights and powers of the Controlling Class Representative with respect to an Excluded Mortgage Loan.

(c)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall take or refrain from taking any action pursuant to instructions, directions, objections, advice or consultation from any applicable Directing Holder, any applicable Consulting Party or a Serviced Companion Loan Holder (or its Companion Loan Holder Representative) that would cause any one of them to violate applicable law, the terms of

  - 425 -  

 

any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, the related Loan Documents, this Agreement, including the Servicing Standard, the related Co-Lender Agreement, any related intercreditor agreement, or the REMIC Provisions or that would (i) expose any Trust Certificateholder, the any Uncertificated Interest Owner, the Trust Fund, any Mortgage Loan Seller (other than with respect to enforcing the rights and remedies against such Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to this Agreement or the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to any Material Defect) or any party to this Agreement or their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents to any claim, suit or liability, (ii) materially expand the scope of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement or any Co-Lender Agreement, (iii) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, or result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions, or (iv) cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to act, or fail to act, in a manner that in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is not in the best interests of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and/or the Serviced Companion Loan Holders.

(d)               Each Holder and Certificate Owner of a Control Eligible Certificate or a Loan-Specific Control Eligible Certificate is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of such Trust Certificate (or beneficial ownership interest in such Trust Certificate) to provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and to notify the Certificate Administrator, in writing, of the transfer of any Control Eligible Certificate (or the beneficial ownership of any Control Eligible Certificate) or Loan-Specific Control Eligible Certificate (or any beneficial ownership of any Loan-Specific Control Eligible Certificate), the selection of a Controlling Class Representative or a Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative or the resignation or removal of the Controlling Class Representative or a Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative, in each such case as applicable. Any such Trust Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner) or its designee at any time appointed Controlling Class Representative or a Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative, as applicable, is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Control Eligible Certificate (or the beneficial ownership interest in a Control Eligible Certificate) or a Loan-Specific Control Eligible Certificate (or the beneficial ownership interest in a Loan-Specific Control Eligible Certificate), as applicable, to notify the Certificate Administrator in writing when such Trust Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner) or designee is appointed Controlling Class Representative or a Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative, and when it is removed or resigns. Upon receipt of any of the notices referred to in the preceding two sentences of this Section 6.09(d), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly notify, in writing, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee of the identity of the Controlling Class Representative or a Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative, any resignation or removal of the Controlling Class Representative or a Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative and/or any new Holder or Certificate Owner of a Control Eligible Certificate or a Loan-Specific Control Eligible Certificate, in each such case as applicable. In addition, upon the request of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trustee, as applicable, the Certificate Administrator shall provide (on a reasonably prompt basis) the identity of the then-current Controlling Class or applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class and a list of the related Trust Certificateholders (or Certificate Owners, if applicable, at the expense of the Trust if such expense arises in connection with an event as to which the Controlling Class

Representative or a Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative or the Controlling Class or a Loan-Specific Controlling Class has consent or consultation rights pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with a request made by the Operating Advisor in connection with its obligation under Section 3.29(c)e) of this Agreement to deliver a copy of the Operating Advisor Annual Report to the Controlling Class Representative and any Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative and otherwise at the expense of the requesting party) of the Controlling Class or the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class to such requesting party, and each of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the information so provided by the Certificate Administrator.

In the event of a change in the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly contact the current Holder(s) (or, in the case of book-entry Certificates, Certificate Owners) of the Controlling Class (or any designee(s) thereof) or, if known to the Certificate Administrator, one of its affiliates or, if applicable, any successor Controlling Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder(s), and determine whether any such entity is the Holder (or Certificate Owner) of at least a majority of the Controlling Class (in effect after such change in Controlling Class) by Certificate Balance. If at any time the current Holder (or Certificate Owner) of the Controlling Class (or its designee), a Loan-Specific Controlling Class (or its designee) or, if known to the Certificate Administrator, one of its respective Affiliates, or any successor Controlling Class Representative or Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative or Controlling Class Certificateholder(s) or Loan-Specific Controlling Class Certificateholder(s) is no longer the Holder (or Certificate Owner) of at least a majority of the applicable Controlling Class or Loan-Specific Controlling Class, in each case  by Certificate Balance, and the Certificate Administrator has neither (i) received notice of the then-current Controlling Class Certificateholders or applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class Certificateholders, as applicable, of at least a majority of the Controlling Class or the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class, in each case by Certificate Balance, nor (ii) received notice of a replacement Controlling Class Representative or applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative pursuant to this Agreement, then a Control Termination Event and a Consultation Termination Event or a Loan-Specific Control Termination Event and a Loan-Specific Consultation Termination Event, as applicable, shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to the related Serviced Loans or Serviced Whole Loan and shall be deemed to continue until such time as the Certificate Administrator receives any such notice in clauses (i) or (ii).

Upon receipt of notice of a change in Controlling Class Representative, a Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative or any Risk Retention Consultation Party, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly forward notice thereof to each other party to this Agreement.

On the Closing Date, each of the initial Controlling Class Representative and Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representatives shall deliver (which delivery may be by electronic mail) a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit M-1H to this Agreement to the Certificate Administrator (who shall promptly forward such certification to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor). Upon the resignation or removal of the existing Controlling Class Representative or an existing Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative, any successor Controlling Class Representative or applicable successor Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative shall also deliver a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit M-1H to this Agreement to the Certificate Administrator (who shall promptly forward such certification to

  - 427 -  

 

the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor) prior to being recognized as the new Controlling Class Representative or applicable new Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative, as applicable.

(e)               Once a Controlling Class Representative or Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative has been selected, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee and each other Trust Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner, if applicable) and the Uncertificated Interest Owner shall be entitled to rely on such selection unless a majority of the Trust Certificateholders of the Controlling Class or the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class, as applicable, in each case by Certificate Balance, or such Controlling Class Representative or Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative shall have notified the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and each other Trust Certificateholder of the Controlling Class or the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class, as applicable, in writing, of the resignation of such Controlling Class Representative or Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative or the selection of a new Controlling Class Representative or applicable new Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative. Upon receipt of written notice of, or other knowledge of, the resignation of a Controlling Class Representative or Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative, the Certificate Administrator shall request the Trust Certificateholders of the Controlling Class or the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class, as applicable,  to select a new Controlling Class Representative or applicable new Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative, as applicable.

(f)                If at any time a book-entry certificate belongs to the Controlling Class or the Loan-Specific Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the related Certificate Owner or Certificate Owners (through the Depository, unless the Certificate Administrator shall have been previously provided with the name and address of such Certificate Owner or Certificate Owners) of such event and shall request that it be informed of any change in the identity of the related Certificate Owner from time to time.

(g)               Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Depositor and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity of (i) the Certificateholders of the Controlling Class and the Controlling Class Representative, and (ii) the Loan-Specific Certificateholders of a Loan-Specific Controlling Class and the applicable Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative.

(h)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, at any time when the Class G-RR Certificates are the Controlling Class, the Holder of more than 50% of the Controlling Class (by Certificate Balance) may waive its right to act as or appoint a Controlling Class Representative and to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative or cause the exercise of any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative set forth in this Agreement, by irrevocable written notice delivered to the Depositor, Certificate Administrator, Trustee, Master Servicer, Special Servicer and Operating Advisor (any such Holder or group of affiliated Holders that makes such an election, the “Opting-Out Party”). Whenever such waiver by an Opting-Out Party is in effect, (1) a Control Termination Event and a Consultation Termination Event shall be deemed to have occurred and be continuing; and (2) the rights of the holder of more than 50% of the Class G-RR Certificates (by Certificate Balance), if the Class G-

  - 428 -  

 

RR Certificates are the Controlling Class, to act as or appoint a Controlling Class Representative and the rights of a Controlling Class Representative will not be operative (notwithstanding whether a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event is or would otherwise then be in effect). Any such waiver shall remain effective with respect to such Holder and such Class until such time as either (x) the Class G-RR Certificates are no longer the Controlling Class or (y) the Opting-Out Party has (i) sold a majority of the Class G-RR Certificates (by Certificate Balance) to an unaffiliated third party and (ii) certified to the Depositor, Certificate Administrator, Trustee, Master Servicer, Special Servicer and Operating Advisor that (a) the Opting-Out Party retains no direct or indirect Voting Rights with respect to the Class G-RR Certificates that it transferred, (b) there is no voting agreement between the Opting-Out Party and the transferee and (c) the Opting-Out Party retains no direct or indirect economic interest in the Class G-RR Certificates that it transferred (such sale and certification, a “Class G-RR Transfer”). Following any such Class G-RR Transfer, and if the Class G-RR Certificates are still the Controlling Class, the successor holder of more than 50% of the Controlling Class (by Certificate Balance) shall again have the right to act as or appoint a Controlling Class Representative as set forth herein without regard to any prior waiver by the predecessor Certificateholder. Such successor Certificateholder shall also have the right as provided in this Section 6.09(h) to irrevocably waive its right to act as or appoint a Controlling Class Representative or, subject to any such limitations set forth in this Agreement (including by reason of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event otherwise existing), to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative or to cause the exercise of any of the rights of the Controlling Class Representative as set forth in this Agreement. No successor Certificateholder described above in this paragraph shall have any consent rights with respect to any Serviced Mortgage Loan that became a Specially Serviced Loan prior to the G-RR Transfer and had not also become a Corrected Loan prior to such Class G-RR Transfer until such Serviced Mortgage Loan becomes a Corrected Loan.

(i)                 AREF2 shall be entitled to appoint the Risk Retention Consultation Party and to replace any Risk Retention Consultation Party previously appointed by it. In connection therewith, any Risk Retention Consultation Party so appointed by AREF2 shall remain so until a successor is appointed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Upon the appointment of the initial Risk Retention Consultation Party or the resignation or removal of any existing Risk Retention Consultation Party, such initial Risk Retention Consultation Party or any successor Risk Retention Consultation Party, as the case may be, shall deliver to the parties to this Agreement a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit M-1I to this Agreement prior to being recognized as the initial Risk Retention Consultation Party or a new Risk Retention Consultation Party, as applicable. In the absence of such notice, the parties hereto shall be entitled to assume that an initial Risk Retention Consultation Party has not been appointed or the Risk Retention Consultation Party has not changed, as the case may be.

(j)                 Once a Risk Retention Consultation Party has been selected, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner, if applicable) shall be entitled to rely on such selection unless such Risk Retention Consultation Party itself or the party that appointed it shall have notified the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Operating Advisor, in writing, of the selection of a new Risk Retention Consultation Party (along with contact information for such new Risk Retention Consultation Party).

  - 429 -  

 

(k)               In the event that a previously acting Risk Retention Consultation Party has resigned or been terminated and no replacement Risk Retention Consultation Party has been appointed by AREF2 or identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has attempted to obtain such information from the Certificate Administrator and no such entity has been identified (along with contact information) to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, then until such time as the related new Risk Retention Consultation Party is identified, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have no duty to consult with, or provide notice to, the subject Risk Retention Consultation Party.

(l)                 Each Uncertificated Interest Owner and, by its acceptance of a Certificate, each Trust Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees that: (i) each Risk Retention Consultation Party may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Trust Certificates or the Uncertificated Interest Owners; (ii) each Risk Retention Consultation Party may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the VRR Interest; (iii) no Risk Retention Consultation Party has any liability or duties to the Holders of any other Class of Trust Certificates; (iv) each Risk Retention Consultation Party may take actions that favor interests of the Holders of the VRR Interest or the Holders of one or more Classes of Trust Certificates over the interests of the Holders of one or more other Classes of Trust Certificates or the Uncertificated Interest Owners; and (v) each Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, and no Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner may take any action whatsoever against any Risk Retention Consultation Party or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal of such Risk Retention Consultation Party for having so acted.

(b)               If the Master Servicer receives notice of termination under Section 7.01(c) solely due to a Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(a)(viii), Section 7.01(a)(ix) or Section 7.01(a)(x) and if the Master Servicer to be terminated pursuant to Section 7.01(c) provides the Trustee with the appropriate “request for proposal” materials within five (5) Business Days following such termination notice, then the Master Servicer shall continue to service as Master Servicer hereunder until a successor Master Servicer is selected in accordance with this Section 7.01(b). Upon receipt of the “request for proposal” materials, Trustee shall promptly thereafter (using such “request for proposal” materials provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01(c)) solicit good faith bids for the rights to service the Mortgage Loans and the

  - 433 -  

 

Serviced Whole Loans under this Agreement from at least three (3) Persons qualified to act as a successor Master Servicer hereunder in accordance with Section 6.04 (any such Person so qualified, a “Qualified Bidder”) or, if three (3) Qualified Bidders cannot be located, then from as many persons as the Trustee can determine are Qualified Bidders; provided that, the Master Servicer shall supply the Trustee with the names of Persons from whom to solicit such bids; and provided, further, that the Trustee shall not be responsible if less than three (3) or no Qualified Bidders submit bids for the right to service the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans under this Agreement. The bid proposal shall require any Successful Bidder (as defined below), as a condition of such bid, to enter into this Agreement as successor Master Servicer, and to agree to be bound by the terms hereof, within 45 days after the notice of termination of the Master Servicer. The Trustee shall select the Qualified Bidder with the highest cash bid (the “Successful Bidder”) to act as successor Master Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that if the Trustee does not receive a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency within 10 days after the selection of such Successful Bidder, then the Trustee shall repeat the bid process described above (but subject to the above-described 45-day time period) until such confirmation is obtained. The Trustee shall request the Successful Bidder to enter into this Agreement as successor Master Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof no later than 45 days after notice of the termination of the Master Servicer.

Upon the assignment and acceptance of master servicing rights hereunder (subject to the terms of Section 3.12 of this Agreement) to and by the Successful Bidder, the Trustee shall remit or cause to be remitted to the Master Servicer to be terminated pursuant to Section 7.01(c) of this Agreement, the amount of such cash bid received from the Successful Bidder (net of “out-of-pocket” expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such bid and transferring servicing).

The Master Servicer to be terminated pursuant to Section 7.01(c) of this Agreement shall be responsible for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the attempt to sell its rights to service the Mortgage Loans and the Serviced Whole Loans, which expenses are not reimbursed to the party that incurred such expenses pursuant to the preceding paragraph.

If the Successful Bidder has not entered into this Agreement as successor Master Servicer within the above-described time period or no Successful Bidder was identified within the above-described time period, the Master Servicer to be terminated pursuant to Section 7.01(c) shall reimburse the Trustee for all reasonable “out-of-pocket” expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with such bid process and the Trustee shall have no further obligations under this Section 7.01(b). The Trustee thereafter may act or may select a successor to act as Master Servicer hereunder in accordance with Section 7.02.

(c)               In the event that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be (the “Terminated Party”), terminate all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans and the proceeds thereof, other than any rights the Master Servicer or Special Servicer may have hereunder as a Trust Certificateholder and any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination or that survive such termination (including the right to receive all amounts

  - 434 -  

 

accrued or owing to it under this Agreement, plus interest at the Advance Rate on such amounts until received to the extent such amounts bear interest as provided in this Agreement, with respect to periods prior to the date of such termination and the right to the benefits of Section 6.03 and subsection (b) above notwithstanding any such termination). On or after the receipt by the Terminated Party of such written notice, all of its authority and power under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Trust Certificates (except that the Terminated Party shall retain its rights as a Trust Certificateholder in the event and to the extent that it is a Trust Certificateholder) or the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Terminated Party, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each agrees that, in the event it is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01, to promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to such notice) provide, at its own expense, the Trustee (or the successor Master Servicer selected by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.01(b) of this Agreement or the successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, otherwise appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 of this Agreement) with all documents and records requested by the Trustee (or the successor Master Servicer selected by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.01(b) of this Agreement or the successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, otherwise appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 of this Agreement) to enable the Trustee or other successor to its responsibilities hereunder to assume its functions hereunder, and to cooperate with the Trustee and the successor to its responsibilities hereunder in effecting the termination and transfer of its responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be or should have been credited by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to the Collection Account, any Whole Loan Custodial Account, any REO Account or Lock-Box Account shall thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans, and shall promptly provide the Trustee or such successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer (which may include the Trustee), as applicable, all documents and records reasonably requested by it, such documents and records to be provided in such form as the Trustee or such successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall reasonably request (including electromagnetic form), to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s function hereunder. All reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer in connection with transferring Mortgage Files, Servicing Files and related information, records and reports to the successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect (as well as providing appropriate notices to Mortgagors, ground lessors, insurers and other applicable third parties regarding) such succession as successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer pursuant to this Section 7.01 shall be paid by the predecessor Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses. If the predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer (as the case may be) has not reimbursed the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer for such expenses within 90 days after the presentation of reasonable

  - 435 -  

 

documentation, such expense shall be reimbursed by the Trust Fund; provided that the Terminated Party shall not thereby be relieved of its liability for such expenses.

(d)               Notwithstanding Section 7.01(a) and Section 7.01(c), if (1) any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer affects a Serviced Companion Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder or the rating on a class of the related Serviced Companion Loan Securities (including any related Loan-Specific Certificates) and the Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated in accordance with Section 7.01(c) and Section 7.01(c), or (2) a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer occurs that affects only a Serviced Companion Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder or the rating on a class of the related Serviced Companion Loan Securities (including any related Loan-Specific Certificates), then the Master Servicer may not be terminated by or at the direction of the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder or the Holders of any Loan-Specific Certificates in accordance with Section 7.01(a), but at the written direction of the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder or of Holders of related Loan-Specific Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights of all related Loan-Specific Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall appoint, within 30 days of such direction, a sub-servicer (or, if the related Serviced Whole Loan is currently being sub-serviced, to replace, within 30 days of such direction, the then current sub-servicer with a new sub-servicer). In connection with the Master Servicer’s appointment of any sub-servicer at the direction of a Serviced Companion Loan Holder or the requisite Holders of related Loan-Specific Certificates in accordance with this Section 7.01(d), the Master Servicer shall obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency. The related sub-servicing agreement shall provide that any sub-servicer appointed by the Master Servicer at the direction of a Serviced Companion Loan Holder or the requisite Holders of related Loan-Specific Certificates in accordance with this Section 7.01(d) shall be responsible for all duties of the Master Servicer under this Agreement with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan. Such sub-servicing agreement (a) may be terminated without cause and without payment of any fee and (b) shall also provide that such sub-servicer shall agree to become the master servicer under a separate servicing agreement for the applicable Serviced Whole Loan in the event that such Serviced Whole Loan is no longer to be serviced and administered hereunder, which separate servicing agreement shall contain servicing and administration, limitation of liability, indemnification and servicing compensation provisions substantially similar to the corresponding provisions of this Agreement, except for the fact that the applicable Serviced Whole Loan and the related Mortgaged Properties shall be the sole assets serviced and administered thereunder and the sole source of funds thereunder. If any sub-servicer appointed by the Master Servicer at the direction of a Serviced Companion Loan Holder or the requisite Holders of related Loan-Specific Certificates in accordance with this Section 7.01(d) shall at any time resign or be terminated, the Master Servicer shall be required to promptly appoint a substitute sub-servicer and obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation. In the event a successor Master Servicer is acting hereunder and that successor Master Servicer desires to terminate the sub-servicer appointed under this Section 7.01(d), the terminated Master Servicer that was responsible for the Servicer Termination Event that led to the appointment of such sub-servicer shall be responsible for all costs incurred in connection with such termination, including the payment of any termination fee.

(e)               If the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has received written notice (which, for the purposes of this subsection (e), shall include any publications by any Rating Agency of which the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator

  - 436 -  

 

or any Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer, as the case may be, has actual knowledge) from any Rating Agency that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer no longer is an approved master servicer or approved special servicer, as applicable, then such party shall promptly notify the others, and the Certificate Administrator shall notify the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, to the extent known to the Certificate Administrator, of the same.

Section 7.02           Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. On and after the time the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.01, the Trustee shall, subject to the following provisions of this Section 7.02, be its successor in all respects in its capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and, except as provided herein, shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties, limitations on liability and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Master Servicer or Special Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that (i) the Trustee shall have no responsibilities, duties, liabilities or obligations with respect to any act or omission of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer and (ii) any failure to perform, or delay in performing, such duties or responsibilities caused by the Terminated Party’s failure to provide, or delay in providing, records, tapes, disks, information or moneys shall not be considered a default by such successor hereunder. The Trustee, as successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer, shall be indemnified to the full extent provided the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement prior to the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s termination. The appointment of a successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer which may have arisen prior to its termination as Master Servicer or Special Servicer. The Trustee shall not be liable for any of the representations, liabilities or warranties of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer herein or in any related document or agreement, for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Master Servicer or predecessor Special Servicer or for any losses incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.07 of this Agreement nor shall the Trustee be required to purchase any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan hereunder. As compensation therefor, the Trustee as successor Master Servicer or successor Special Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee or Special Servicing Compensation, as applicable, and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans that accrue after the date of the Trustee’s succession to which the Master Servicer or Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, had continued to act hereunder. In the event any Advances made by the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall at any time be outstanding, or any amounts of interest thereon shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay Advances and interest hereunder shall be applied entirely to the Advances made by the Trustee (and the accrued and unpaid interest thereon), until such Advances and interest shall have been repaid in full. Notwithstanding the above and subject to Section 6.08, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act, or if the Holders of (i) in the case of the Master Servicer, Trust Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights, or (ii) in the case of the Special Servicer with respect to all the Serviced Loans other than a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan, Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the aggregate Pooled Voting Rights and (iii) in the case of the Special Servicer with respect to a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan, Certificates and related Loan-Specific Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights of all Certificates and related Loan-Specific Certificates, so request in writing to the Trustee, or if neither the Trustee nor (if appointed pursuant to Section 8.12) the Advancing Agent has the Applicable Advancing Agent Ratings, or if the Rating Agencies do

  - 437 -  

 

not provide Rating Agency Confirmations with respect to the Trustee so acting, promptly appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing institution for which a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency has been obtained (at the expense of the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or, if the expense is not so recovered, at the expense of the Trust Fund), as the successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer hereunder; provided that, the applicable Directing Holder shall have the right to approve any successor Special Servicer with respect to any Serviced Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer hereunder shall be effective until (i) the assumption by such successor of all the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder and (ii) in the case of the appointment of a successor Special Servicer, the Depositor and, if applicable, each related Other Depositor shall have received the written notice and information with respect to such successor Special Servicer as set forth in Section 10.02(a). Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer if the Special Servicer is also the Master Servicer) hereunder, unless the Trustee shall be prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as herein above provided. Pending the appointment of a successor to the Special Servicer, unless the Master Servicer is also the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer shall act in such capacity. In connection with such appointment and assumption described herein, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Terminated Party hereunder; provided, further, that if no successor to the Terminated Party can be obtained to perform the obligations of such Terminated Party hereunder, additional amounts shall be paid to such successor and such amounts in excess of that permitted the Terminated Party shall be treated as Realized Losses; and provided, further that, the Trustee shall consult with any applicable Directing Holder and Consulting Party (other than the Operating Advisor) prior to the appointment of a successor to the Terminated Party with respect to any Serviced Loan or Serviced Whole Loan at a servicing compensation in excess of that permitted the Terminated Party. The Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

If the Trustee or an Affiliate acts pursuant to this Section 7.02 as successor to the terminated Master Servicer, it may reduce the Excess Servicing Fee Rate to the extent that the Trustee’s or such Affiliate’s compensation as successor Master Servicer would otherwise be below the market rate servicing compensation. If the Trustee elects to appoint a successor to the terminated Master Servicer other than itself or an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 7.02, it may reduce the Excess Servicing Fee Rate to the extent reasonably necessary (in the sole discretion of the Trustee) for the Trustee to appoint a qualified successor Master Servicer that meets the requirements of this Section 7.02.

 

 

Section 7.03           Notification to Certificateholders.

(a)               Upon any termination pursuant to Section 7.01 above or appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator shall give prompt written notice thereof to Trust Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in

  - 438 -  

 

the Certificate Register, to the Uncertificated Interest Owners, to the Serviced Companion Loan Holders, and electronically, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider.

(b)               Within 30 days after the occurrence of any Servicer Termination Event or Operating Advisor Termination Event of which a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Administrator has actual knowledge, the Certificate Administrator shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Trust Certificates, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and any affected Serviced Companion Loan Holder (to the extent the Certificate Administrator has received the notice information for such Serviced Companion Loan Holder after a request therefor) and electronically, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider notice of such Servicer Termination Event or Operating Advisor Termination Event, unless such Servicer Termination Event or Operating Advisor Termination Event shall have been cured or waived.

Section 7.04           Other Remedies of Trustee. During the continuance of any Servicer Termination Event, so long as such Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights specified in Section 7.01, shall have the right, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and the Serviced Companion Loan Holders (including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other proceedings and the filing of proofs of claim and debt in connection therewith). In such event, the legal fees, expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the defaulting Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable. If the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, fails to remedy, after the presentation of reasonable documentation, the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such expenses, costs and liability from the Collection Account or the Whole Loan Custodial Account, as applicable, as provided in Section 3.06 and Section 3.06A of this Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be relieved of such liability for such expenses, costs and liabilities. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Servicer Termination Event of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer.

Section 7.05           Waiver of Past Servicer Termination Events and Operating Advisor Termination Events; Termination. The Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the Voting Rights of all Trust Certificates (or, if the Servicer Termination Event is with respect to the Special Servicer for a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan, of all Certificates and related Loan-Specific Certificates) (together with, if such Servicer Termination Event is on the part of a Special Servicer only with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan with a Companion Loan held outside the Trust (including, if applicable, a Trust Subordinate Companion Whole Loan), each affected Serviced Companion Loan Holder) may, on behalf of all Holders of Trust Certificates and Uncertificated Interests, waive any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or any Operating Advisor Termination Event on the part of the Operating Advisor in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences, except a Servicer Termination

  - 439 -  

 

Event in connection with making any required deposits (including, with respect to the Master Servicer, P&I Advances) to or payments from the Collection Account, a Whole Loan Custodial Account or the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account or in remitting payments as received, in each case in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Servicer Termination Event or Operating Advisor Termination Event arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. Any costs and expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with such default and prior to such waiver shall be reimbursed by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, promptly upon demand therefor and if not reimbursed to the Certificate Administrator within 90 days of such demand, from the Trust Fund; provided that the Trust Fund shall be reimbursed by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, to the extent such amounts are reimbursed to the Certificate Administrator from the Trust Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) a Servicer Termination Event under any of Section 7.01(a)(i) and Section 7.01(a)(ii) of this Agreement may be waived only by all of the Certificateholders of the affected Classes, and (b) a Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(a)(xi) of this Agreement may be waived only with the consent of the Depositor, together with (in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b) of this sentence) the consent of each Serviced Companion Loan Holder, if any, that is affected by such Servicer Termination Event.

The foregoing paragraph notwithstanding, if the Holders representing at least the requisite percentage of the Voting Rights allocated to each affected Class of Trust Certificates desire to waive a Servicer Termination Event by the Master Servicer, but a Serviced Companion Loan Holder related to a Serviced Whole Loan (if adversely affected thereby) does not wish to waive that Servicer Termination Event, then those Trust Certificateholders may still waive that Servicer Termination Event, and the applicable Serviced Companion Loan Holder will be entitled to require that the Master Servicer appoint, within 60 days of the applicable Serviced Companion Loan Holder’s request, a sub-servicer (or, if the applicable Serviced Whole Loan is currently being subserviced, to replace, within 60 days of the applicable Serviced Companion Loan Holder’s request, the then current sub-servicer with a new sub-servicer) with respect to the applicable Serviced Whole Loan. In connection with the Master Servicer’s appointment of a sub-servicer at the request of a Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with this Section 7.05, the Master Servicer shall obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency at the expense of the Serviced Companion Loan Holder. The related sub-servicing agreement shall provide that any sub-servicer appointed by the Master Servicer at the request of a Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with this Section 7.05 shall be responsible for all duties of the Master Servicer under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Serviced Whole Loan. Such Sub-Servicing Agreement (a) may be terminated without cause and without the payment of any fee and (b) shall also provide that such sub-servicer shall become the master servicer under a separate servicing agreement for the applicable Serviced Whole Loan in the event that the Serviced Whole Loan is no longer to be serviced and administered hereunder, which separate servicing agreement shall contain servicing and administration, limitation of liability, indemnification and servicing compensation provisions substantially similar to the corresponding provisions of this Agreement, except for the fact that the applicable Serviced Whole Loan and the related Mortgaged Properties shall be the sole assets serviced and administered thereunder and the sole source of funds thereunder. Such sub-servicer (a) may be terminated without cause and without the payment of any fee and (b) shall meet the requirements of Section 3.01 of this Agreement. If any sub-servicer

  - 440 -  

 

appointed by the Master Servicer at the request of a Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with this Section 7.05 shall at any time resign or be terminated, the Master Servicer shall be required to promptly appoint a substitute sub-servicer with respect to which a Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained at the expense of the applicable resigning or terminated sub-servicer (and any applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement shall so provide), and if the resigning or terminated sub-servicer fails to cover such expense, the Master Servicer shall do so. In the event a successor Master Servicer is acting hereunder and that successor Master Servicer desires to terminate the sub-servicer appointed under this Section 7.05, the terminated Master Servicer that was responsible for the Servicer Termination Event that led to the appointment of such sub-servicer shall be responsible for all costs incurred in connection with such termination, including the payment of any termination fee.

Section 7.06           Termination of the Operating Advisor.

(a)               An “Operating Advisor Termination Event” means any one of the following events whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body:

(i)                                any failure by the Operating Advisor to observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants or agreements or the material breach of its representations or warranties under this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such failure shall have been given to the Operating Advisor by the Trustee or to the Operating Advisor and the Trustee by the Holders of Trust Certificates having greater than 25% of the Voting Rights of all then outstanding Trust Certificates; provided, however, that with respect to any such failure which is not curable within such 30-day period, the Operating Advisor shall have an additional cure period of thirty (30) days to effect such cure so long as it has commenced to cure such failure with the initial 30-day period and has provided the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator with an Officer’s Certificate certifying that it has diligently pursued, and is continuing to pursue, such cure;

(ii)                             any failure by the Operating Advisor to perform its obligations set forth in this Agreement in accordance with the Operating Advisor Standard which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such failure is given to the Operating Advisor by any party to this Agreement;

(iii)                          any failure by the Operating Advisor to be an Eligible Operating Advisor, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days;

(iv)                         a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Operating Advisor, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days;

  - 441 -  

 

(v)                            the Operating Advisor shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or liquidation committee in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities, voluntary liquidation, or similar proceedings of or relating to the Operating Advisor or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(vi)                         the Operating Advisor shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations.

Upon receipt by the Certificate Administrator of notice of the occurrence of any Operating Advisor Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners by posting such notice on its internet website, unless the Certificate Administrator has received notice that it has been remedied. If an Operating Advisor Termination Event shall occur then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Operating Advisor Termination Event shall not have been remedied, then either (i) the Trustee may or (ii) upon the written direction of holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights of each Class of Non-Reduced Certificates, or if an Operating Advisor Termination Event affects only any related Loan-Specific Certificates issued as part of an EHRI Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Securitization, upon the written direction of the holders of related Loan-Specific Certificate evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights of all related Loan-Specific Certificateholders, the Trustee shall, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement, other than rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination), by notice in writing to the Operating Advisor. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee of any Operating Advisor Termination Event of which the Depositor becomes aware.

(b)               Upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Certificates and Non-Reduced Loan-Specific Certificates evidencing not less than 15% of the Voting Rights of the Non-Reduced Certificates and Non-Reduced Loan-Specific Certificates requesting a vote to terminate and replace the Operating Advisor with a proposed successor Operating Advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor and (ii) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice of the requested vote to the Operating Advisor and to all Certificateholders and Loan-Specific Certificateholders by (i) posting such notice on its internet website, and (ii) mailing such notice to all Certificateholders and Loan-Specific Certificateholders at their addresses appearing in the Certificate Register and to the Operating Advisor. Upon the affirmative vote of the Holders of Trust Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the Voting Rights allocable to the Non-Reduced Certificates and Non-Reduced Loan-Specific Certificates of those Holders that exercise their right to vote (provided that Holders entitled to exercise at least 50% of the Voting Rights allocable to the Non-Reduced Certificates and Non-Reduced Loan-Specific Certificates exercise their right to vote within 180 days of the initial request for a vote (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is the date

  - 442 -  

 

on which the aforementioned notice was mailed to the Certificateholders)), the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement by notice in writing to the Operating Advisor. The provisions set forth in the foregoing sentences of this Section 7.06(b) shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of solely the Certificateholders and the Trustee as between each other. The Operating Advisor shall not have any cause of action based upon or arising from any breach or alleged breach of such provisions. As between the Operating Advisor, on the one hand, and the Certificateholders and Loan-Specific Certificateholders, on the other, the Certificateholders and Loan-Specific Certificateholders shall be entitled in their sole discretion to vote for the termination or not vote for the termination of the Operating Advisor. The Certificate Administrator shall include on each Distribution Date Statement a statement that each Certificateholder and Loan-Specific Certificateholder and Certificate Owner may access notices on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and each Holder and Certificate Owner of Certificates and Loan-Specific Certificates may register to receive e-mail notifications when such notices are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website; provided that the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement from the requesting Certificateholders and Loan-Specific Certificateholders for the reasonable expenses of posting such notices.

(c)               On or after the receipt by the Operating Advisor of such written notice of termination, subject to the foregoing, all of its authority and power under this Agreement shall be terminated and, without limitation, the terminated Operating Advisor shall execute any and all documents and other instruments, and do or accomplish all other acts or things reasonably necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 Business Days after (1) the Operating Advisor resigns pursuant to Section 6.04 of this Agreement (excluding resignation under the circumstances contemplated in Section 6.04(d) where no successor Operating Advisor is required to be appointed) or (2) the Trustee delivers such written notice of termination to the Operating Advisor, the Trustee shall appoint a successor Operating Advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor. The Trustee shall provide written notice of the appointment of a successor Operating Advisor to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Risk Retention Consultation Parties, any related Outside Controlling Note Holder and, if a Consultation Termination Event does not exist, the Controlling Class Representative within one Business Day of such appointment, and the Certificate Administrator shall provide written notice of such appointment to each Certificateholder and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner within one Business Day of the receipt of such notice of appointment from the Trustee. Except as contemplated by Section 7.06(b) of this Agreement, the appointment of a successor Operating Advisor shall not be subject to the vote, consent or approval of the holder of any Class of Certificates or the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner.

The Operating Advisor shall not at any time be the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, a Sponsor or an Affiliate of any of them. If any of such entities becomes the Operating Advisor, including by means of an Affiliation arising after the date hereof, the Operating Advisor shall immediately resign or cause an assignment under Section 6.04 of this Agreement and the Trustee shall appoint a successor Operating Advisor subject to and in accordance with this Section 7.06(c), which successor Operating Advisor may be an Affiliate of the Trustee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee is unable to find a successor Operating Advisor within 30 days of the termination of the Operating Advisor, the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement. Unless and until a replacement Operating Advisor is appointed, no party shall

  - 443 -  

 

act as the Operating Advisor and the provisions in this Agreement relating to consultation with respect to the Operating Advisor shall not be applicable until a replacement Operating Advisor is appointed hereunder.

(d)               Upon any resignation or termination of the Operating Advisor and, if applicable, appointment of a successor to the Operating Advisor, the Trustee shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator (who shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner), the Depositor, each Directing Holder, each Consulting Party and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider. In the event that the Operating Advisor resigns or is terminated, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such resignation or termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than any rights to indemnification arising out of events occurring prior to such resignation or termination.

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE and The Certificate Administrator

Section 8.01           Duties of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator.

(a)               The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge and after the curing or waiver of all Servicer Termination Events which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no permissive right of the Trustee shall be construed as a duty. During the continuance of a Servicer Termination Event of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.02 and Section 7.04 of this Agreement, shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. The Certificate Administrator undertakes to perform at all times such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no permissive right of the Certificate Administrator shall be construed as a duty.

(b)               Each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, upon receipt of any resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement (other than the Mortgage Files, the review of which is specifically governed by the terms of Article II, the Diligence Files, any CREFC® reports and any information delivered for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website or the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website), shall examine them to determine whether they conform on their face to the requirements of this Agreement to the extent specifically set forth herein; provided, however, that neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for the accuracy or content of any such resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument provided to it hereunder if accepted in good faith. If

  - 444 -  

 

any such instrument is found not to conform on its face to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall request a corrected instrument, and if the instrument is not corrected to the Trustee’s or the Certificate Administrator’s, as applicable, reasonable satisfaction, the Certificate Administrator (if the Certificate Administrator requested the corrected instrument or upon direction from the Trustee if the Trustee requested the corrected instrument) will provide notice thereof to the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners.

(c)               Neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act shall have any liability arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, provided that, subject to Section 8.02 of this Agreement, no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, or any such person, from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct or its own bad faith; and provided, further, that:

(i)                                Prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event or Operating Advisor Termination Event of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge, and after the curing or waiver of all such Servicer Termination Events which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any resolutions, certificates, statements, reports, opinions, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, that conform on their face to the requirements of this Agreement without responsibility for investigating the contents thereof;

(ii)                             Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be personally liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(iii)                          Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of Holders of Certificates entitled to greater than 50% of the Percentage Interests (or such other percentage as is specified herein for such action) of each affected Class, or of the Voting Rights of the Trust Certificates, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, under this Agreement;

(v)                            Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action unless such action is incidental to its respective duties as Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement (and, if it does, all reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action shall be expenses and costs of the Trust Fund) and in its opinion does not expose it to any expense or liability for which reimbursement is not reasonably assured, and the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account, unless such legal action arises (i) as a result of any willful misconduct, bad faith, fraud or negligence in the performance of duties of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, or by reason of negligent disregard of the Trustee’s or the Certificate Administrator’s, as the case may be, obligations or duties hereunder, or (ii) as a result of the breach by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, of any of its representations or warranties contained herein; provided, however, that the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator may in its discretion undertake any such action related to its obligations hereunder which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Trust Certificateholders hereunder;

(vi)                         Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be charged with knowledge of any act, failure to act or breach of any Person unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, obtains actual knowledge of such act, failure to act or breach or receives written notice of such act, failure to act or breach from any other party to this Agreement, any Trust Certificateholder or Certificate Owner, an Uncertificated Interest Owner, a Risk Retention Consultation Party, a Serviced Companion Loan Holder, the Directing Holder or the Controlling Class Representative; and

(vii)                      Except in the event of the Trustee’s or Certificate Administrator’s, as applicable, willful misconduct, bad faith or fraud, in no event shall the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, be liable for special, punitive, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

None of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall require the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, in its capacity as Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable,

  - 446 -  

 

to expend or risk its own funds, or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if in the opinion of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. None of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Master Servicer (other than the obligations to make Advances under Sections 3.20 and 4.06 of this Agreement), the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement, except during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor make no representations or warranties as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement, of the Trust Certificates or any prospectus used to offer the Trust Certificates for sale or the validity, enforceability or sufficiency of any Trust Loan or related document.

Without limiting the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be liable or responsible for: the existence, condition and ownership of any Mortgaged Property; the existence of any hazard or other insurance thereon (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 of this Agreement, in the Trustee’s capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer) or the enforceability thereof; the existence of any Trust Loan or the contents of the related Mortgage File on any computer or other record thereof (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 of this Agreement, in the Trustee’s capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer); the validity of the assignment of any Trust Loan to the Trust Fund or of any intervening assignment; the completeness of any Mortgage File (except for its review thereof pursuant to Section 2.02); the performance or enforcement of any Trust Loan (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 of this Agreement, in the Trustee’s capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer); the compliance by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor with any warranty or representation made under this Agreement or in any related document or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation prior to the Trustee’s receipt of notice or other discovery of any non-compliance therewith or any breach thereof; any investment of moneys by or at the direction of the Master Servicer or any loss resulting therefrom (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 of this Agreement, in the Trustee’s capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer), it being understood that the Trustee shall remain responsible for any Trust Fund property that it may hold in its individual capacity; the acts or omissions of any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 of this Agreement, in the Trustee’s capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer) or any Sub-Servicer or any Mortgagor; any action of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 of this Agreement, in the Trustee’s capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer) or any Sub-Servicer taken in the name of the Trustee except to the extent such action is taken at the express written direction of the Trustee; the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or any Sub-Servicer to act or perform any duties required of it on behalf of the Trust Fund or the Trustee as applicable hereunder; or any action by or omission of the Trustee taken at the instruction of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer or the Special

  - 451 -  

 

Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 of this Agreement, in the Trustee’s capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer) unless the taking of such action is not permitted by the express terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, of its obligation to perform its duties as specifically set forth in this Agreement. Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of any of the Trust Certificates or the Uncertificated Interests issued to it or of the proceeds of the sale of such Trust Certificates or an Uncertificated Interest, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in respect of the Trust Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Lock Box Account, the Escrow Accounts, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account or any other account maintained by or on behalf of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, other than any funds held by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable.

In making any calculation hereunder which includes as a component thereof the payment or distribution of interest for a stated period at a stated rate “to the extent permitted by applicable law,” the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall assume that such payment is so permitted unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, has actual knowledge, or receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Person asserting the impermissibility) to the effect that such payment is not permitted by applicable law.

Section 8.04           Trustee and Certificate Administrator May Own Trust Certificates. The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and any agent of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, each, in its individual capacity or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Trust Certificates, and may deal with the Depositor and the Master Servicer in banking transactions, with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or such agent, as the case may be.

Any Trustee/Certificate Administrator Fee payable with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be payable solely from collections with respect to the Mortgage Loans. In the event that the Trustee assumes the servicing responsibilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder pursuant to or otherwise arising from the resignation or removal of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, the Trustee shall be entitled to the compensation to which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would have been entitled.

fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct, or negligent disregard of obligations and duties hereunder, of the Indemnified Party and (ii) except to the extent such amounts are not paid pursuant to this Section 8.05, those as to which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.05(c).

In addition, the Trustee shall satisfy the requirements for a trustee contemplated by clause (a)(4)(i) of Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act. The Certificate Administrator shall maintain a rating on its long-term senior unsecured debt or an issuer credit rating of at least “BBB-” by KBRA or an investment grade rating by any other NRSRO, which may include S&P or Fitch.

In the event that the place of business from which the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, administers the Trust Fund is a state or local jurisdiction that imposes a tax on the Trust Fund or the net income of a Trust REMIC (other than a tax corresponding to a tax imposed under the REMIC Provisions) the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall elect either to (i) resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07, (ii) pay such tax from its own funds and continue as Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, or (iii) administer the Trust Fund from a state and local jurisdiction that does not impose such a tax. In addition, in the event that either (a) (1) neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer has a rating on its long-term senior unsecured debt or an issuer credit rating of at least “A” by Fitch or a short-term debt rating of at least “F1” by Fitch, and (2) the Trustee submitted a request for a Rating Agency Confirmation but Fitch did not approve the Trustee via Rating Agency Confirmation to allow the Trustee to remain as Trustee on this transaction, or (b) (1) neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer has a long-term senior unsecured debt rating or an issuer credit rating of at least “BBB” by S&P and (2) the Trustee submitted a request for a Rating Agency Confirmation but S&P did not approve the Trustee via Rating Agency Confirmation to allow the Trustee to remain as Trustee on this transaction, then the Trustee shall either (i) resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07 or (ii) within 30 days after the Trustee has actual knowledge or received notice of such event, appoint an Advancing Agent pursuant to Section 8.12 to perform the Trustee’s obligations under Section 3.20 and Section 4.06 of this Agreement. In case at any time the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07.

Section 8.07           Resignation and Removal of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator. Each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the other such party, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners, the Serviced Companion Loan Holders and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider. Upon such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall use reasonable efforts to appoint a successor Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, with respect to which the Rating Agencies have provided a Rating Agency Confirmation to the resigning Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as

  - 456 -  

 

applicable, and the successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable. If no successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 90 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and such petition will be an expense of the Trust Fund. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall bear all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each other party hereto and each Rating Agency in connection with its resignation (including, but not limited to, the costs of assigning Trust Loans by reason of change in Trustee).

If at any time either the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator is required to resign in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.34 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Depositor or Master Servicer, or shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Depositor or Master Servicer, or if at any time either the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and promptly appoint a successor Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, by written instrument, which shall be delivered to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, so removed and to the successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable. The Holders of Trust Certificates entitled to more than 50% of the Voting Rights allocated to all of the Trust Certificates may at any time, with prior written notice, remove the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator and appoint a successor Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, by written instrument or instruments, in five originals, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Depositor, one complete set to the Master Servicer, one complete set to the Trustee (in connection with the removal of the Certificate Administrator), one complete set to the Certificate Administrator (in connection with the removal of the Trustee), one complete set to the Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, so removed and one complete set to the successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, so appointed, and a copy thereof shall be delivered to the Serviced Companion Loan Holders.

In the event that the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator is terminated or removed pursuant to this Section 8.07, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans or Serviced Whole Loans shall be terminated, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination or removal (including the right to receive all fees, expenses and other amounts (including Advances and any accrued interest thereon) accrued or owing to it under this Agreement, with respect to periods prior to the date of such termination or removal, and no termination without cause shall be effective until the payment of such amounts to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable). The Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, will bear all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each other party hereto and each Rating Agency in connection with its termination or removal; provided that if the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, is terminated without cause by the Holders of Trust Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the Voting Rights

  - 457 -  

 

allocated to all of the Trust Certificates as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, then such Holders will be required to pay all the reasonable costs and expenses of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, necessary to effect the transfer of the rights and obligations (including, if applicable, custody of any Mortgage Files in its possession) of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, to a successor trustee or certificate administrator.

Any resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator and appointment of a successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall not become effective until (i) acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee or successor Certificate Administrator, as applicable, as provided in Section 8.08 and (ii) the filing by or on behalf of the Trust of a Form 8-K with respect to such resignation, removal and/or appointment as contemplated by the fifth paragraph of Section 10.07.

Upon the resignation or upon the termination of the Trustee, the outgoing Trustee shall (subject to the terms of the third paragraph of this Section 8.07), at its own expense, ensure that prior to its transfer of duties to any successor (to the extent such Loan Document was assigned or endorsed to the Trustee), (A) the original executed Note for each Trust Loan, is endorsed (without recourse, representation or warranty, express or implied) to the order of the successor, as trustee for the registered holders of BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4, and the Uncertificated Interest Owners or in blank, and (B) in the case of the other Loan Documents, are assigned (and, other than in connection with the removal of the Trustee without cause, recorded as appropriate) to such successor, and such successor shall review the documents delivered to it or the Custodian with respect to each Trust Loan, and certify in writing that, as to each Trust Loan then subject to this Agreement, such endorsement and assignment has been made. The outgoing Trustee shall provide copies of the documentation provided for in items (A) and (B) above to the Master Servicer, in each case to the extent such copies are not already in the Master Servicer’s possession. If the Trustee is removed without cause, the Loan Documents identified in clause (B) of the preceding sentence shall, if appropriate, be recorded by the successor trustee if so required by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and at the expense of the Trust (for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing, with the consent of the Controlling Class Representative, and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, after consultation with the Controlling Class Representative).

Section 8.08           Successor Trustee or Successor Certificate Administrator.

(a)               Any successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator appointed as provided in Section 8.07 of this Agreement shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and to the predecessor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, as the case may be, instruments accepting their appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall become effective and such successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, herein, provided that a Rating Agency Confirmation shall be obtained from each Rating Agency with respect to the

  - 458 -  

 

appointment of such successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator. In connection with the appointment of a successor Certificate Administrator, the predecessor Certificate Administrator (or a Custodian appointed by it) shall deliver to the successor Certificate Administrator all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements held by it hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the predecessor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. No successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06. In no event may the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any of their Affiliates be appointed as successor Trustee or successor Certificate Administrator.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, as provided in this Section 8.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, hereunder to all Holders of Trust Certificates at their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register, to the Uncertificated Interest Owners and to the Companion Loan Holders. If the Depositor fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, the successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor.

(b)               Any successor Trustee or Certificate Administrator appointed pursuant to this Agreement shall satisfy the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 8.06 hereof.

Section 8.09           Merger or Consolidation of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator. Any entity into which the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator may be merged or converted, or with which the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to the corporate trust business of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall be the successor of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, hereunder, provided such entity shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section 8.10           Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Fund, the assets thereof or any property securing the same may at the time be located, the Depositor and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act (at the expense of (i) the Trustee, if the need to appoint such co-trustee(s) arises from any change in or matter relating to the identity, organization, status, power, conflicts, internal policy or other development or matter with respect to the Trustee, and/or (ii) the Trust Fund, if the need to appoint such co-trustee(s) arises from a change in applicable law or the identity, status or power of the Trust Fund; provided, however, that in the event the need to appoint such co-trustee(s) arises from a

  - 459 -  

 

combination of the events described in clause (i) and clause (ii), the expense shall be split evenly between the Trustee and the Trust Fund; and provided, further, that in the event the need to appoint such co-trustee(s) arises from none of the events described in clause (i) and clause (ii), such appointment shall be at the expense of the Trust Fund) as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the Trust Fund, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Depositor and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Depositor shall not be in existence or shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case a Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. Except as required by applicable law, the appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee shall not relieve the Trustee of its responsibilities, obligations and liabilities hereunder. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of Trust Certificates or the Uncertificated Interest Owners of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08 hereof.

In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee pursuant to this Section 8.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Fund or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee solely at the direction of the Trustee.

The Depositor and the Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee, or if the separate trustee or co-trustee is an employee of the Trustee, the Trustee acting alone may accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. In no event shall any such separate trustee or co-trustee be entitled to any provision relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, such separate trustee or co-trustee that imposes a standard of conduct less stringent than that imposed on the Trustee hereunder, affording greater protection than that

  - 460 -  

 

afforded to the Trustee hereunder or providing a greater limit on liability than that provided to the Trustee hereunder.

Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

Such access shall be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian, as applicable.

(b)               The Certificate Administrator shall maintain at its offices (or, in the case of the Mortgage Files, the Certificate Administrator shall maintain or cause to be maintained at its offices or the offices of a Custodian appointed by it) (and, upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours, shall make available or cause to be made available) for review by any Privileged Person originals and/or copies of the following items (to the extent such items were prepared by or delivered to the Certificate Administrator (or a Custodian appointed by it)):

All such payments as contemplated by the preceding paragraph shall be deposited into the Collection Account by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, promptly following receipt thereof.

(b)               In connection with a termination contemplated by Section 9.01(a) of this Agreement, the Trust REMICs outstanding shall be terminated and the assets of the Lower-Tier REMIC, any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC and any Loan REMIC shall be sold or otherwise disposed of in connection therewith, pursuant to a “plan of complete liquidation” within the meaning of Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A) providing for the actions contemplated by the provisions hereof pursuant to which the applicable Notice of Termination is given and requiring that the assets of the Lower-Tier REMIC, any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC and the Loan REMIC shall be sold for cash and that each such Trust REMIC shall terminate on a Distribution Date occurring not more than 90 days following the date of adoption of the plan of complete liquidation. For purposes of this Section 9.01(b), the Notice of Termination given pursuant to Section 9.01(c) shall constitute the adoption of the plan of complete liquidation as of the date such notice is given, which date shall be specified by the Certificate Administrator in the final federal income tax returns of each Trust REMIC. Notwithstanding the termination of the Trust REMICs, or the Trust Fund, the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for filing the final Tax Returns for the Trust REMICs and for the Grantor Trust for the period ending with such termination, and shall maintain books and records with respect to the Trust REMICs and the Grantor Trust for the period for which it maintains its own tax returns or other reasonable period.

(c)               The Holders of the Controlling Class representing greater than 50% of the Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class may (or, if such Holders do not, the Special Servicer, or if neither such Holders nor the Special Servicer do, the Master Servicer or, if none of such Holders, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer does, any Holders of Class R Certificates representing greater than a 50% Percentage Interest in such Class, may also) effect an early termination of the Trust Fund, upon not less than 30 days’ prior notice given to the parties (or, if applicable, the other parties) to this Agreement (whereupon the Master Servicer shall notify the Serviced Companion Loan Holders) any time on or after the Early Termination Notice Date specifying the Anticipated Termination Date, by purchasing on such date all, but not less than all, of the Trust Loans (and in the case of any such Trust Loan that is part of a Serviced Whole Loan, subject to certain rights of the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) provided for in the related Co-Lender Agreement) then included in the Trust Fund, and all property acquired by or on behalf of the Trust Fund (including the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property acquired with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) in respect of any Trust Loan then included in the

  - 464 -  

 

Trust Fund, at a purchase price, payable in cash, equal to (i) the sum of (A) the Termination Purchase Amount and (B) the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Master Servicer (unless the Master Servicer is the purchaser of such Trust Loans), the Special Servicer (unless the Special Servicer is the purchaser of such Trust Loans), the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, with respect to such termination, minus (ii) solely in the case where the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is effecting such purchase, the aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, if any, made by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, together with any interest accrued and payable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in respect of such Advances and any unpaid Servicing Fees or Special Servicing Fees, as applicable, remaining outstanding (which items will be deemed to have been paid or reimbursed to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with such purchase).

Any Person(s) effecting an early termination of the Trust Fund as provided in the prior paragraph shall first notify the Controlling Class Representative, the Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative and each Certifying Certificateholder and each Uncertificated Interest Owner, or, in the case of a termination by the Holder of a Class R Certificate, notify the Certificate Administrator (who shall notify the Controlling Class Representative, the Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative and each Certifying Certificateholder and each Uncertificated Interest Owner) of its intention to do so in writing at least 30 days prior to the Anticipated Termination Date. All costs and expenses incurred by any and all parties to this Agreement or by the Trust Fund in connection with the purchase of the Trust Loans and other assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to this Section 9.01(c) shall be borne by the party exercising its purchase rights hereunder. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any determination made by an Appraiser pursuant to this subsection (c).

(d)               If the Trust Fund has not been previously terminated pursuant to subsection (c) or subsection (h) of this Section 9.01, the Certificate Administrator shall determine as soon as practicable the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Administrator reasonably anticipates, based on information with respect to the Trust Loans previously provided to it, that the final distribution will be made (i) to the Holders of outstanding Regular Certificates (exclusive of the Class VRR Certificates), to the Holders of outstanding Loan-Specific Certificates, to the Holders of outstanding Class VRR Certificates and the Uncertificated Interest Owners, and to the Certificate Administrator in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests, notwithstanding that such distribution may be insufficient to distribute in full an amount equal to the remaining Certificate Balance, Uncertificated Interest Balance, Lower-Tier Principal Balance or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Principal Balance, as applicable, of each such Class of Certificates, each such Class of Loan-Specific Certificates, each such Uncertificated Interest, and each of such Lower-Tier Regular Interests and Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests, together with amounts required to be distributed on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01 of this Agreement (or, if the Regular Certificates, the Loan-Specific Certificates and the Uncertificated Interests are no longer outstanding, to the Holders of the Class R Certificates) and (ii) to the Holders of the Grantor Trust Certificates and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, of any amount remaining in the Collection Account, the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account and/or the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account, as applicable, in any case, following the later to occur of (a) the receipt or collection of

  - 465 -  

 

the last payment due on any Trust Loan included in the Trust Fund or (b) the liquidation or disposition pursuant to Section 3.17 of this Agreement of the last asset held by the Trust Fund.

(e)               Notice of any termination of the Trust Fund pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall be mailed by the Certificate Administrator to affected Trust Certificateholders and affected Uncertificated Interest Owners at their addresses shown in the Certificate Register (with a copy to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and, for posting to the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 12.13 of this Agreement, the Rule 17g-5 Information Provider) as soon as practicable after the Certificate Administrator shall have received, given or been deemed to have received a Notice of Termination but in any event not more than thirty days, and not less than ten days, prior to the Anticipated Termination Date. The notice mailed by the Certificate Administrator to affected Trust Certificateholders and affected Uncertificated Interest Owners shall:

(i)                                specify the Anticipated Termination Date on which the final distribution is anticipated to be made to Holders of Trust Certificates of the Classes specified therein and the Uncertificated Interest Owners;

(ii)                             specify the amount of any such final distribution, if known; and

(iii)                          state that the final distribution to Trust Certificateholders will be made only upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein specified and to any Uncertificated Interest Owner only upon delivery of a written instrument surrendering the related Uncertificated Interest and acknowledging that such distribution is the final distribution.

If the Trust Fund is not terminated on any Anticipated Termination Date for any reason, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly mail notice thereof to each affected Trust Certificateholder and each affected Uncertificated Interest Owner.

(f)                Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates or the failure of any Uncertificated Interest Owners to surrender their Uncertificated Interests shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders or the non-surrendering Uncertificated Interest Owners, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates or Uncertificated Interests as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders or Uncertificated Interest Owners, as applicable, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates or Uncertificated Interests, as applicable, for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate or Uncertificated Interest shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders or Uncertificated Interest Owners, as applicable, concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates or Uncertificated Interests, as applicable. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders or Uncertificated

  - 466 -  

 

Interest Owners shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates or Uncertificated Interest shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof or the Uncertificated Interest Owners, as applicable. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) or such Uncertificated Interest Owner’s failure to surrender its Uncertificated Interest, as applicable, for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 9.01.

(g)               For purposes of this Section 9.01, the Remaining Certificateholder shall have the first option to terminate the Trust Fund pursuant to subsection (h), and then the Holders of the Controlling Class representing more than 50% of the Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class, and then the Special Servicer, and then the Master Servicer, and then the Holders of Class R Certificates representing more than 50% of the Percentage Interests in such Class, in each of the last four cases, pursuant to subsection (c).

(h)               (i) Following the date on which the Class X-A Notional Amount, the Class X-B Notional Amount and the Class X-D Notional Amount and the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are reduced to zero, the Remaining Certificateholder shall have the right to exchange all of its Trust Certificates (but excluding the Class S and Class R Certificates) and the Uncertificated Interests for all of the Trust Loans and each REO Property (and including the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property acquired with respect to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans and/or the Serviced Whole Loans) remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 9.01(a) by giving written notice to all the parties hereto no later than 60 days prior to the anticipated date of exchange; provided that such Remaining Certificateholder shall pay the Master Servicer an amount equal to the product of (A) the Prime Rate, (B) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-outstanding Principal Balance Certificates as of the day of the exchange and (C) three. In the event that the Remaining Certificateholder elects to exchange all of the Trust Certificates (other than the Class S and Class R Certificates) and the Uncertificated Interests for all of the Trust Loans and each REO Property (and including the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property acquired with respect to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans and/or the Serviced Whole Loans) remaining in the Trust Fund in accordance with the preceding sentence, such Remaining Certificateholder, not later than the Termination Date, shall deposit in the Collection Account an amount in immediately available funds equal to all amounts due and owing to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee hereunder through the date of the liquidation of the Trust Fund that may be withdrawn from the Collection Account or a Distribution Account, but only to the extent that such amounts are not already on deposit in the Collection Account. Upon confirmation that such final deposits have been made and following the surrender of all remaining Trust Certificates (other than the Class S and Class R Certificates) and the Uncertificated Interests by the Remaining Certificateholder on the Termination Date, the Custodian shall, upon receipt of a Request for Release from the Master Servicer, release or cause to be released to the Remaining Certificateholder or any designee thereof, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Trust Loans and shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments furnished to it by the Remaining Certificateholder as shall be necessary to effectuate transfer of the Trust Loans and REO Properties

  - 467 -  

 

(and including the Trust Fund’s interest in any REO Property acquired with respect to the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans and/or the Serviced Whole Loans) remaining in the Trust Fund, and the Trust Fund shall be liquidated in accordance with this Section 9.01. Thereafter, the Trust Fund and the respective obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee (other than the making of certain payments to Trust Certificateholders, the Uncertificated Interest Owners and Serviced Companion Loan Holders, sending of certain notices, the maintenance of books and records and the preparation and filing of final tax returns), shall terminate. Such transfers shall be subject to any rights of any Sub-Servicers to service (or to perform select servicing functions with respect to) the Trust Loans. For federal income tax purposes, the Remaining Certificateholder shall be deemed to have purchased the assets of the Lower-Tier REMIC, any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC and any Loan REMIC for an amount equal to the remaining Certificate Balance of its remaining Trust Certificates (other than the Class S and Class R Certificates) and the aggregate remaining Uncertificated Interest Balances of the Uncertificated Interests, plus accrued and unpaid interest with respect thereto, and the Certificate Administrator shall credit such amounts against amounts distributed in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests, any Loan REMIC Regular Interest and such Trust Certificates and the Uncertificated Interests. The remaining Trust Loans and REO Properties (or the Trust’s interests therein) are deemed distributed to the Remaining Certificateholder in liquidation of the Trust Fund pursuant to this Section 9.01.

(ii)                 (A) A Holder of related Loan-Specific Certificates owning a majority of the Percentage Interest of the related outstanding Loan-Specific Controlling Class may (or, if such Holder does not, the Special Servicer, or if neither such Holder nor the Special Servicer do, the Master Servicer, may also) effect an early termination of a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC, upon not less than 30 days’ prior notice given to the parties (or, if applicable, the other parties) to this Agreement any time on or after any Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan is less than 1% of the Stated Principal Balance of the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan as of the Cut-off Date, by purchasing on the designated date the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan and the other assets of such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC at a purchase price, payable in cash, equal to (i) the sum of (1) the applicable Purchase Price and (2) the reasonable out of pocket expenses of the Master Servicer (unless the Master Servicer is the purchaser of the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), the Special Servicer (unless the Special Servicer is the purchaser of the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, with respect to such purchase, minus (ii) solely in the case where the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is effecting such purchase, the aggregate amount of unreimbursed related Advances, if any, made by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, together with any interest accrued and payable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in respect of such Advances and any unpaid related Servicing Fees or Special Servicing Fees, as applicable, remaining outstanding with respect to the related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan (which items will be deemed to have been paid or reimbursed to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with such purchase).

  - 468 -  

 

(B)              In connection with a termination contemplated by Section 9.01(h)(ii)(A) of this Agreement, a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC shall be terminated and the assets of such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC shall be sold or otherwise disposed of in connection therewith pursuant to a “plan of complete liquidation” within the meaning of Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A) providing for the actions contemplated by the provisions hereof pursuant to which the applicable notice of termination is given and requiring that the assets of such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC shall be sold for cash and that such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC shall terminate on a Distribution Date occurring not more than 90 days following the date of adoption of the plan of complete liquidation. For purposes of this Section 9.01(h)(ii)(B), the notice given pursuant to Section 9.01(h)(ii)(A) shall constitute the adoption of the plan of complete liquidation as of the date such notice is given, which date shall be specified by the Certificate Administrator in the final federal income tax return of such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC. Notwithstanding the termination of such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC, the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for filing the final Tax Returns for such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC for the period ending with such termination, and shall maintain books and records with respect to such Trust Subordinate Companion Loan REMIC for the period for which it maintains its own tax returns or other reasonable period.

(i)                 Any Loan REMIC shall terminate as described above or as otherwise described in the related REMIC Declaration.

Such Servicer shall obtain from each such Subcontractor (or, in the case of each Sub-Servicer set forth on Exhibit S, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Sub-Servicer) and deliver to the applicable Persons any assessment of compliance report and related accountant’s attestation required to be delivered by such Subcontractor under Section 10.09 and Section 10.10 of this Agreement, in each case, as and when required to be delivered.

(c)               For so long as the Trust or any Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Servicer engages a Subcontractor in connection with the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, such Servicer shall be responsible for determining whether such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and whether such Subcontractor meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB. If a Servicer determines, pursuant to the preceding sentence, that such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB, then the engagement of such Subcontractor shall not be effective unless and until notice is given to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, as well as any Other Depositor as to which the applicable Companion Loan is affected, of any such Subcontractor and sub-servicing agreement and, if such Subcontractor is engaged by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, such Subcontractor shall be deemed to be a Sub-Servicer for purposes of this Agreement. Written notice of the engagement of such Subcontractor and the related Sub-Servicing Agreement (other than such agreements set forth on Exhibit S hereto) (with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or sub-servicing agreement (with respect to any other Servicer) shall be delivered to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and each such Other Depositor at least five (5) Business Days prior to the effective date of such engagement. Such notice shall contain all information reasonably necessary, and in such form as may be necessary, to enable the Certificate Administrator, as well as any Other Exchange Act Reporting Party as to which the applicable Serviced Companion Loan is affected, to accurately and timely report the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to Section 10.07 of this Agreement (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).

(d)               For so long as the Trust or any Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to Section 3.01(c) of this Agreement, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer engages a Sub-Servicer or if any other Servicer engages a sub-servicer, in each case, in connection with the performance of any of the duties of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or such other Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement and the related Sub-Servicing Agreement (with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or sub-servicing agreement (with respect to any other Servicer) is either (i) assigned (other than, in the case of a Sub-Servicer engaged by the Master

  - 471 -  

 

Servicer, an assignment to the Master Servicer) or (ii) amended or modified and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or such other Servicer, as applicable, determines that, as a result of such amendment or modification, the Sub-Servicer or sub-servicer, as applicable, would become a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB that (1) meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB or (2) meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB and services 20% or more of the pool assets, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or such other Servicer, as applicable, shall provide written notice of such amendment, modification or assignment to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, as well as any Other Depositor as to which the applicable Companion Loan is affected at least five (5) Business Days prior to the effective date of such amendment, modification or assignment (or if such prior notice would be violative of applicable law or any applicable confidentiality agreement, no later than the time required under Section 10.07 of this Agreement). Such notice shall contain all information reasonably necessary, and in such form as may be necessary, to enable the Certificate Administrator, as well as any Other Exchange Act Reporting Party as to which the applicable Serviced Companion Loan is affected, to accurately and timely report the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to Section 10.07 of this Agreement (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).

(e)               For so long as the Trust or any Other Securitization Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, in connection with the succession to the Trustee or Certificate Administrator under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Trustee or Certificate Administrator may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Trustee or Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall notify the Depositor and each Other Depositor, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of such succession or appointment (or if such prior notice would be violative of applicable law or any applicable confidentiality agreement, no later than the time required under Section 10.07 of this Agreement) and shall furnish pursuant to Section 10.07 of this Agreement to the Depositor and each Other Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and each Other Depositor, all information reasonably necessary for the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and each Other Exchange Act Reporting Party to accurately and timely report the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to Section 10.07 of this Agreement or otherwise (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).

(a)               The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall (and shall cause (or, in the case of a Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Servicer, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) each Additional Servicer and Servicing Function Participant utilized thereby to) reasonably cooperate with the Depositor and each Other Depositor in connection with the satisfaction of the Trust’s and each Other Securitization Trust’s reporting requirements under the Exchange Act. Pursuant to Section 10.04, Section 10.05 and Section 10.07, the Certificate Administrator shall prepare for execution by the Depositor any Forms 10-D, ABS-EE, 10-K and 8-K required by the Exchange Act with respect to the Trust, in order to permit the timely filing thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall file (via the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System) such Forms executed by the Depositor.

Any Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE/A or Form 10-K shall be signed by an officer of the Depositor. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Certificate Administrator of its duties under this Section 10.03 related to the timely preparation and filing of Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K is contingent upon such parties observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under this Article X.

The Certificate Administrator shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage, or claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, arrange for execution and/or timely file any Form 10-D or Form ABS-EE with respect to the Trust, where such failure results because required disclosure information was either not delivered to the Certificate Administrator or delivered to the Certificate Administrator after the delivery deadlines set forth in this Agreement, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

(i)                 Form 10-D requires the registrant to indicate (by checking “yes” or “no”) that it “(1) has filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject to such filing requirements for the past 90 days.” The Depositor hereby instructs the Certificate Administrator, with respect to each Form 10-D with respect to the Trust, to check “yes” for each item unless the Certificate Administrator has received prior written notice (which may be furnished electronically) from the Depositor that the answer should be “no” for an item which notice shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator no later

and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner. Any notice required to be delivered to the Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner pursuant to this Article XI shall be delivered by the Certificate Administrator (i) by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (ii) by mailing such notice to the Certificateholders’ addresses or the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner’s address appearing in the Certificate Register in the case of Definitive Certificates or the Uncertificated VRR Interest and by delivering such notice via the Depository in the case of Book-Entry Certificates. The Certificate Administrator shall include in the Form 10-D relating to the Collection Period in which the Asset Review Trigger occurred, notice of its determination together with the following statement describing the events that caused the Asset Review Trigger to occur: “As of the [Date of Distribution], the following Mortgage Loans identified below are 60 or more days delinquent and an Asset Review Trigger as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement has occurred.” On each Distribution Date occurring after providing such notice to Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner, the Certificate Administrator, based on information provided to it by the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall determine whether (1) any additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Loan, (2) any Mortgage Loan has ceased to be a Delinquent Loan and (3) whether an Asset Review Trigger has ceased to exist, and, if there is an occurrence of any of the events or circumstances identified in clauses (1), (2) and/or (3), deliver such information in a written notice (which may be via email) in the form of Exhibit LL within two (2) Business Days of such determination to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer.

If Certificateholders evidencing not less than 5% of the Pooled Voting Rights of the Certificates deliver to the Certificate Administrator, within 90 days after the filing of the Form 10-D reporting the occurrence of an Asset Review Trigger, a written direction requesting a vote to commence an Asset Review (an “Asset Review Vote Election”), then the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Asset Representations Reviewer and to all Certificateholders and conduct a solicitation of votes in accordance with Section 5.12 regarding whether to authorize an Asset Review. In the event there is an affirmative vote to authorize an Asset Review by Holders of Certificates evidencing at least a majority of an Asset Review Quorum within 150 days of receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election (an “Affirmative Asset Review Vote”), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof (the “Asset Review Notice”) to all parties to this Agreement, the Underwriters, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the applicable Directing Holder, the Risk Retention Consultation Parties and the other Certificateholders (such notice to Certificateholders to be effected by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and by mailing such notice to the Certificateholders’ addresses appearing in the Certificate Register in the case of Definitive Certificates and by delivering such notice via the Depository in the case of Book-Entry Certificates). Upon receipt of an Asset Review Notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request access to the Secure Data Room by providing the Certificate Administrator with a certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit KK. Upon receipt of such certification, the Certificate Administrator shall grant the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the Secure Data Room. In the event an Affirmative Asset Review Vote has not occurred within such 150-day period following the receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election, no Certificateholder may request a vote or cast a vote for an Asset Review and the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to review any Delinquent Loan unless and until (A) an additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Loan after the expiration of such 150-day period, (B) a new Asset Review Trigger has occurred as a result or an Asset Review

Any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote will be paid as an expense of the Trust from the Collection Account. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to administer any vote in connection with the foregoing through an agent. For the avoidance of doubt, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not perform any Asset Review with respect to a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan at any time.

(b)               (i)                                  Upon receipt from the Certificate Administrator of an Asset Review Notice with respect to a Delinquent Loan, the Custodian (with respect to clauses (1) through (5) below for all of the Mortgage Loans), the Master Servicer (with respect to clause (6) below for Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to clause (6) below for Specially Serviced Loans) shall promptly (but (except with respect to clause (6)) in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice from the Certificate Administrator) provide, in electronic format, the following materials for such Delinquent Loan, in each case to the extent in such party’s possession, to the Asset Representations Reviewer (collectively, with the Diligence Files posted on the Secure Data Room by the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 4.09, a copy of the Prospectus, a copy of each related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and a copy of this Agreement, the “Review Materials”):

(1)               a copy of an assignment of the Mortgage in favor of the Trustee, with evidence of recording thereon, for each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(2)               a copy of an assignment of any related Assignment of Leases (if such item is a document separate from the Mortgage) in favor of the Trustee, with evidence of recording thereon, related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(3)               a copy of the assignment of all unrecorded documents relating to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review, if not already covered pursuant to items (1) or (2) above;

(4)               a copy of all filed copies (bearing evidence of filing) or evidence of filing of any UCC financing statements related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

  - 498 -  

 

(6)               any other related documents that are required to be part of the Review Materials and requested to be delivered by the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) to the Asset Representations Reviewer pursuant to clause (vii) below of this Section 11.01(b).

(ii)                             Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Mortgage Loan Seller will not be required to deliver any information that is proprietary to the Mortgage Loan Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis.

(iii)                          The Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider and rely upon information furnished to it by a Person that is not a party to this Agreement or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, and shall do so only if such information can be independently verified (without unreasonable effort or expense to the Asset Representations Reviewer) and is determined by the Asset Representations Reviewer in its good faith and sole discretion to be relevant to the Asset Review conducted pursuant to this Section 11.01 (any such information, “Unsolicited Information”).

(iv)                         Upon receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of the Asset Review Notice and access to the Diligence Files posted to the Secure Data Room with respect to a Delinquent Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer, as an independent contractor, shall commence a review of the compliance of each Delinquent Loan with the representations and warranties related to that Delinquent Loan (such review, the “Asset Review”). The Asset Representations Reviewer shall perform an Asset Review with respect to each representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Delinquent Loan in accordance with the Asset Review Standard and the procedures set forth on Exhibit JJ (each such procedure, a “Test”). Once an Asset Review of a Mortgage Loan is completed, no further Asset Review shall be required in respect of, or performed on, such Mortgage Loan notwithstanding that such Mortgage Loan may continue to be a Delinquent Loan or again become a Delinquent Loan at a time when a new Asset Review Trigger occurs and a new Affirmative Asset Review Vote is obtained subsequent to the occurrence of such new Asset Review Trigger.

(v)                            No Certificateholder or Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner shall have the right to change the scope of the Asset Review, and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be required to review any information other than (1) the Review Materials and (2) if applicable, Unsolicited Information.

(vi)                         The Asset Representations Reviewer may, absent manifest error and subject to the Asset Review Standard, (i) assume, without independent investigation or verification, that the Review Materials are accurate and complete in all material respects and (ii) conclusively rely on such Review Materials.

  - 499 -  

 

(vii)                      In connection with an Asset Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall comply with the following procedures with respect to each Delinquent Loan:

(A)             Within 10 Business Days after the date on which the Review Materials identified in clauses (i) through (v) of the definition of “Review Materials” have been received by the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to such Delinquent Loan or in any event within 15 days after the date on which access to the Secure Data Room is provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate Administrator, in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for such Delinquent Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, of such missing documents, and request that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, promptly (but in no event later than 10 Business Days after receipt of notification from the Asset Representations Reviewer) deliver to the Asset Representations Reviewer such missing documents in its possession; provided that any such notification and/or request shall be in writing, specifically identifying the documents being requested and sent to the notice address for the related party set forth in Section 12.04 of this Agreement. In the event any missing documents are not provided by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, within such 10-Business Day period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request such documents from the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided that the Mortgage Loan Seller will be required under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to deliver any such missing documents only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Mortgage Loan Seller; and provided, further, that the Mortgage Loan Seller will not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Mortgage Loan Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis.

(B)              Following the events in clause (A) above, and within 45 days after the date on which access to the Secure Data Room is provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall prepare a preliminary report with respect to such Delinquent Loan setting forth (i) the preliminary results of the application of the Tests, (ii) if applicable, whether the Review Materials for such Delinquent Loan are insufficient to complete any Test, (iii) a list of any applicable missing documents together with the reasons why such missing documents are necessary to complete any Test, and (iv) (if the Asset Representations Reviewer has so concluded) whether the absence of such documents will be deemed to be a failure of such Test (collectively, the “Preliminary Asset Review Report”). The Asset Representations Reviewer shall provide each Preliminary Asset Review Report to the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), who shall promptly, but in no

  - 500 -  

 

event later than 10 Business Days of receipt thereof, provide the Preliminary Asset Review Report to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall include the following statement in the related correspondence when providing each Preliminary Asset Review Report to the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans): “This is a Preliminary Asset Review Report regarding an Asset Review under Section 11.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to the BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4, requiring action by you as the recipient of such Preliminary Asset Review Report. You are required to deliver the Preliminary Asset Review Report to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller no later than 10 Business Days after receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report.” If the Preliminary Asset Review Report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall have 90 days from its receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the failure. The applicable Mortgage Loan Seller will be required under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to provide any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test, in any such case to the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt from the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, deliver to the Asset Representations Reviewer any such documents or explanations received from the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller given to support a claim that the representation and warranty has not failed a Test or a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test.

(C)              Within the later of (x) 60 days after the date on which access to the Secure Data Room is provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate Administrator, and (y) 10 Business Days after the expiration of the Cure/Contest Period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall complete an Asset Review with respect to each Delinquent Loan and deliver (i) a report, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit HH, setting forth the Asset Representations Reviewer’s findings and conclusions as to whether or not it has determined there is any evidence of a failure of any Test based on the Asset Review, together with a statement that the Asset Representations Reviewer’s findings and conclusions set forth in such report were not influenced by any third party (an “Asset Review Report”), to each party to this Agreement, the related Mortgage Loan Seller and the Controlling Class Representative (if such Delinquent Loan is not an Excluded Mortgage Loan), and (ii) a summary of the Asset Representations Reviewer’s conclusions included in such Asset Review Report (an “Asset Review Report Summary”) , substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II, to the Trustee and Certificate Administrator (who shall include such Asset Review Report Summary in the Form 10-D relating to the Collection Period in which such Asset

  - 501 -  

 

Review Report Summary is received and post such Asset Review Report Summary on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 10.04(e)). The period of time by which the Asset Review Report must be completed and delivered may be extended by up to an additional 30 days, upon written notice to the parties to this Agreement and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller(s), if the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that such additional time is required due to the characteristics of the Delinquent Loan(s) and/or the Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties. In addition, in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer does not receive any documentation that it requested from the Master Servicer (with respect to Performing Serviced Loans), the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller in sufficient time to allow the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete its Asset Review and deliver an Asset Review Report, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall prepare the Asset Review Report solely based on the documents received by the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to the related Delinquent Loan, and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall have no responsibility to independently obtain any such documents from any party to this or otherwise.

(viii)                   Within thirty (30) days after receipt of an Asset Review Report with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Enforcing Servicer shall determine, based on the Servicing Standard, whether there exists a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan. If the Enforcing Servicer determines that a Material Defect exists, the Enforcing Servicer shall enforce the obligations of the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Material Defect in accordance with Section 2.03(a).

(ix)                           In no event may the Asset Representations Reviewer determine whether any Test failure constitutes a Material Defect, or whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, which, in each case, shall be the responsibility of the Enforcing Servicer pursuant to Section 2.03(a) or Section 11.01(b)(viii) of this Agreement.

(c)               The Asset Representations Reviewer and its Affiliates shall keep confidential any Privileged Information received from any party to this Agreement or any Sponsor (including, without limitation, in connection with the review of the Mortgage Loans) and not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner), other than (1) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement in an Asset Review Report or otherwise, to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information or (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Asset Representations Reviewer with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. In addition, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall keep all documents and information received by the Asset Representations Reviewer in connection with an Asset Review that are provided by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer confidential

  - 502 -  

 

and shall not disclose such documents except for purposes of complying with its duties and obligations hereunder.

(d)               The Asset Representations Reviewer may delegate its duties to agents or subcontractors so long as the related agreements or arrangements with such agents or subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Section 11.01; provided that no agent or subcontractor may (i) be affiliated with any Mortgage Loan Seller, Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Controlling Class Representative or any of their respective Affiliates or (ii) have been paid any fees, compensation or other remuneration by an Underwriter, Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Controlling Class Representative or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with due diligence or other services with respect to any Mortgage Loan prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall remain obligated and primarily liable for any Asset Review required hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability or related obligation or liability by virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as its agents or subcontractor to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Asset Representations Reviewer alone were performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with any agent or subcontractor providing for indemnification of the Asset Representations Reviewer by such agent or subcontractor, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(e)               With respect to any Delinquent Loan that is an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the extent any documents required by the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete a Test are missing or have not been received from the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request such document(s) from the related Outside Servicer (if such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is being serviced by an Outside Servicer) or the related Outside Special Servicer (if such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is being serviced by an Outside Special Servicer), the related Outside Trustee and the related Outside Certificate Administrator (and, in each case, such other party as contemplated under the related Outside Servicing Agreement or related Co-Lender Agreement).

Section 11.02       Payment of Asset Representations Asset Review Fee and Expenses; Limitation of Liability.

(a)               As compensation for the performance of its routine duties, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be paid as an ongoing fee (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Ongoing Fee”), payable monthly from amounts received in respect of each Mortgage Loan (including any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), and for any Distribution Date an amount accrued during the related Interest Accrual Period at 0.000300% per annum (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Ongoing Fee Rate”) on, in the case of the initial Distribution Date, the Cut-Off Date Balance of such Mortgage Loan and, in the case of any subsequent Distribution Date, the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan as of the close of business on the Distribution Date in such Interest Accrual Period, and shall be calculated on the same interest accrual basis as such Mortgage Loan and prorated for any partial periods. The Asset Representations Reviewer Ongoing Fee shall be payable from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account as set forth in

  - 503 -  

 

Section 3.06(a). For the avoidance of doubt, no Asset Representations Reviewer Ongoing Fee is payable with respect to a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan.

(b)               Upon the completion of an Asset Review with respect to one or more Delinquent Loans and receipt by the related Mortgage Loan Seller of a written invoice from the Asset Representations Reviewer, the related Mortgage Loan Seller is required under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to pay to the Asset Representations Reviewer within forty-five (45) days after such written invoice a fee (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee”) that is equal to, with respect to each Delinquent Loan, (i) $15,000 multiplied by the number of Delinquent Loans subject to any Asset Review for Delinquent Loans with an unpaid principal balance less than $20,000,000, (ii) $20,000 multiplied by the number of Delinquent Loans subject to any Asset Review for Delinquent Loans with an unpaid principal balance equal to or greater than $20,000,000 but less than $40,000,000, (iii) $25,000 multiplied by the number of Delinquent Loans subject to any Asset Review for Delinquent Loans with an unpaid principal balance equal to or greater than $40,000,000, plus (iv) $1,000 per Mortgaged Property for each Delinquent Loan subject to any Asset Review. The Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to each Delinquent Loan shall be paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller (provided that, if any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is a Delinquent Loan, it shall be treated as one Mortgage Loan for the purposes of assessing any Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee, and each of the related Applicable Co-sponsors shall only be responsible for paying its proportionate share of any such Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee attributable to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan (in the case of any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, any related Applicable Co-sponsor’s proportionate share to be determined according to the proportion that the outstanding principal balance of the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) contributed to the Trust by such Applicable Co-sponsor bears to the outstanding principal balance of the entire such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan); provided, however, that if (1) the related Mortgage Loan Seller is insolvent or (2) at any time after the outstanding Certificate Balances of the Control Eligible Certificates have been reduced to zero as a result of the allocation of Realized Losses to such Certificates, the related Mortgage Loan Seller fails to pay such amount within 90 days following receipt of the Asset Representations Reviewer’s invoice, then such fee (or, in the case of a Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan and a related Applicable Co-sponsor, the applicable portion of such fee) shall be paid by the Trust Fund following delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Special Servicer of such insolvency or failure to pay such amount; and provided, further, that notwithstanding any payment of such fee (or applicable portion thereof, as the case may be) by the Trust to the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee (or applicable portion thereof, as the case may be) will remain an obligation of the related Mortgage Loan Seller, and the Special Servicer shall determine whether to pursue (and, if it determines to do so, shall pursue) remedies against such Mortgage Loan Seller or its insolvency estate to recover any such amounts to the extent paid by the Trust. If paid by the Trust Fund as described in the immediately preceding sentence, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to each Delinquent Loan shall be payable from funds on deposit in the Collection Account as set forth in Section 3.06(a).

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to a Delinquent Loan shall be included in the Purchase Price for any such Delinquent Loan that was the subject of a completed Asset Review that is repurchased by a Mortgage Loan Seller, and such portion of the Purchase Price received shall be used to reimburse

  - 504 -  

 

the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trust, as the case may be, for such fees pursuant to Section 11.02(b).

(d)               The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed by this Agreement.

Section 11.03       Resignation of the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer may resign and be discharged from its obligations hereunder by giving written notice thereof to the other parties to this Agreement and each Rating Agency. In addition, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall at all times be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, and shall resign if it fails to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer (and such failure results in an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event) by giving written notice to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the applicable Directing Holder. Upon such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. No resignation of the Asset Representations Reviewer will be effective until a successor Asset Representations Reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer has been appointed and accepted the appointment. If no successor Asset Representations Reviewer shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Asset Representations Reviewer may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall bear all costs and expenses of each party hereto and each Rating Agency in connection with its resignation and the transfer of its duties.

Section 11.04       Restrictions of the Asset Representations Reviewer. Neither the Asset Representations Reviewer nor any of its Affiliates shall make any investment in any Class of Trust Certificates or any Uncertificated Interest; provided, however, that such prohibition shall not apply to (i) riskless principal transactions effected by a broker dealer Affiliate of the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) investments by an Affiliate of the Asset Representations Reviewer if the Asset Representations Reviewer and such Affiliate maintain policies and procedures that (A) segregate personnel involved in the activities of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement from personnel involved in such Affiliate’s investment activities and (B) prevent such Affiliate and its personnel from gaining access to information regarding the Trust and the Asset Representations Reviewer and its personnel from gaining access to such Affiliate’s information regarding its investment activities.

Section 11.05       Termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(a)               An “Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event” means any one of the following events whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body:

(i)                                any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants or agreements or the material breach of any of its representations or warranties under this Agreement, which failure shall

  - 505 -  

 

continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such failure is given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Trustee or to the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the Pooled Voting Rights; provided, however, that with respect to any such failure which is not curable within such 30-day period, the Asset Representations Reviewer will have an additional cure period of 30 days to effect such cure so long as it has commenced to cure such failure within the initial 30-day period and has provided the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator with an Officer’s Certificate certifying that it has diligently pursued, and is continuing to pursue, such cure;

(ii)                             any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform its obligations hereunder in accordance with the Asset Review Standard in any material respect, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date written notice of such failure is given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by any party to this Agreement;

(iii)                          any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days;

(iv)                         a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Asset Representations Reviewer, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days;

(v)                            the Asset Representations Reviewer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or liquidation committee in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities, voluntary liquidation, or similar proceedings of or relating to the Asset Representations Reviewer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(vi)                         the Asset Representations Reviewer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations.

Upon receipt by the Certificate Administrator of written notice of the occurrence of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner (and simultaneously deliver such written notice to the Asset Representations Reviewer) in accordance with the notice distribution procedures described in Section 11.01(a), unless the Certificate Administrator has received written notice that such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event has been remedied. If an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall occur then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Asset Representations Reviewer

  - 506 -  

 

Termination Event shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee (i) may or (ii) upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Pooled Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Appraisal Reduction Amounts), shall, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement, other than rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination), by notice in writing to the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer is required to bear all reasonable costs and expenses of itself and of each other party to this Agreement in connection with its termination due to an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor and each Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event of which it becomes aware.

(b)               Upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Pooled Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Appraisal Reduction Amounts) requesting a vote to terminate and replace the Asset Representations Reviewer with a proposed successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer and (ii) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice of such requested vote to the Asset Representations Reviewer and to all Certificateholders by (i) posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and (ii) mailing such notice to all Certificateholders at their addresses appearing in the Certificate Register and to the Asset Representations Reviewer. Upon the affirmative vote of the Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 75% of the Pooled Voting Rights allocable to the Certificates of those Holders that exercise their right to vote (provided that Holders representing the applicable Certificateholder Quorum exercise their right to vote within 180 days of the initial request for a vote (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is the date on which the aforementioned notice was mailed to the Certificateholders)), the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination and other than indemnification rights arising out of events occurring prior to such termination) by notice in writing to the Asset Representations Reviewer and appoint the proposed successor. As between the Asset Representations Reviewer, on the one hand, and the Certificateholders, on the other, the Certificateholders shall be entitled in their sole discretion to vote for the termination or not vote for the termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer. In the event that Holders of the required Certificates elect to remove the Asset Representations Reviewer without cause and appoint a successor, the successor asset representations reviewer shall be responsible for all expenses necessary to effect the transfer of responsibilities from its predecessor.

(c)               On or after the receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of written notice of termination, subject to this Section 11.05, all of its authority and power under this Agreement shall be terminated and, without limitation, the terminated Asset Representations Reviewer shall execute any and all documents and other instruments, and do or accomplish all other acts or things reasonably necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than 30 days after (1) the Asset

  - 507 -  

 

Representations Reviewer resigns pursuant to Section 11.03 of this Agreement or (2) the Trustee delivers such written notice of termination to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Depositor (in the case of a resignation of the Asset Representations Reviewer pursuant to Section 11.03) or the Trustee (in the case of a termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer pursuant to Section 11.05(b)), as applicable, shall appoint a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Trustee shall provide written notice of the appointment of an Asset Representations Reviewer to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Holder and each Certificateholder and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner within one Business Day of such appointment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee is unable to find a successor asset representations reviewer within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Depositor shall be permitted, but not obligated, to find a replacement. The Trustee shall not be liable for any failure to identify and appoint a successor asset representations reviewer so long as the Trustee uses commercially reasonable efforts to conduct a search for a successor asset representations reviewer and such failure is not a result of the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the performance of its obligations hereunder.

The Asset Representations Reviewer shall at all times be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. If the Asset Representations Reviewer ceases to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall immediately notify the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Directing Holder of such disqualification and, if an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event occurs as a result, immediately resign under Section 11.03 of this Agreement, and a successor asset representations reviewer shall be appointed in accordance with Section 11.03.

(d)               Upon any termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer and appointment of a successor to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator (who shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Certificateholders and the Uncertificated VRR Interest Owner), the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Depositor, each Rating Agency and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative. In the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer is terminated, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination).

Section 12.02       Limitation on Rights of Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners. The death or incapacity of any Trust Certificateholder or any Uncertificated Interest Owner shall not operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust Fund, nor entitle such Trust Certificateholder’s or Uncertificated Interest Owner’s legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust Fund, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.

No Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner shall have any right to vote (except as expressly provided for herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Trust Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Trust Certificateholders and the Uncertificated Interest Owners from time to time as partners or members of an association; nor shall any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner be under any liability to any third person by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.

No Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner shall have any right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, unless such Person previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of at least 25% of the Voting Rights of any Class of Trust Certificates affected thereby shall have made written request upon the Trustee (with a copy to the Certificate Administrator) to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding. It is understood and intended, and expressly covenanted by each Trust Certificateholder with every other Trust Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Trust Certificates of any Class shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any other of such Trust Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders of Trust Certificates of such Class. It is understood and intended, and expressly covenanted by each Uncertificated Interest Owner with every Trust Certificateholder and the Trustee, that such Uncertificated Interest Owner shall not have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of Trust Certificates of any Class, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Uncertificated Interest Owners. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, each and every Trust Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

Section 12.14       Cooperation With the Mortgage Loan Sellers With Respect to Rights Under the Loan Agreements. It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Mortgage Loan Sellers are entitled to the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions that specifically run to the benefit of the lenders in the Loan Documents. Therefore, the Depositor, Master Servicer, Special Servicer and Trustee hereby agree to reasonably cooperate with any Mortgage Loan Seller, at the sole expense of such Mortgage Loan Seller, with respect to obtaining the benefits of the provisions of any section of a Loan Agreement or securitization cooperation agreement providing for indemnification of the lender and/or its loan seller affiliates with respect to the current securitization of the related Trust Loan, including, without limitation, executing any documents as are reasonably necessary to permit the related Mortgage Loan Seller to enforce such provisions for its benefit; provided, that none of the Depositor, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee shall be required to take any action that is inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, would violate applicable law, the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, would adversely affect any Trust Certificateholder or the Uncertificated Interest Owner, would cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, or would result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions. To the extent that the Trustee is required to execute any document facilitating the above rights of a Mortgage Loan Seller under this Section 12.14, such document shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

Section 12.15       Electronic Signatures. Each of the parties hereto agrees that the transaction consisting of this Agreement (and, to the extent permitted under applicable law, each officer’s certificate, receipt or similar closing document delivered in connection with the closing of this transaction) may be conducted by electronic means. Each party agrees, and acknowledges that it is such party’s intent, that if such party signs this Agreement (or, if applicable, such closing document) using an electronic signature, it is signing, adopting, and accepting this Agreement or such closing document and that signing this Agreement or such closing document using an electronic signature is the legal equivalent of having placed its handwritten signature on this Agreement or such closing document on paper. The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system

No.: [1]

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class A-1 Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class A-1 Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

A-1-2

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class A-1 Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class A-1 Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified

A-1-3

Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

Prior to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners:

A-1-4

(iv) to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions (A) to the extent necessary to maintain the qualification of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund, provided that the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator have received an opinion of counsel (at the expense of the party requesting the amendment) to the effect that (1) the action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize such risk and (2) the action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Holder of the Trust Certificates or any Uncertificated Interest Owner, (B) to restrict (or to remove any existing restrictions with respect to) the transfer of the Class R Certificates, provided that the Depositor has determined that the amendment will not give rise to any tax with respect to the transfer of the Class R Certificates to a non-Permitted Transferee, (C) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, Regulation RR and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations or (D) in the event that Regulation RR (or any portion thereof) or any other regulations applicable to the risk retention requirements for this securitization transaction are amended or repealed, to the extent required to comply with any such amendment or to modify or eliminate any risk retention requirements no longer applicable to this securitization transaction in light of such repeal;

(v) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other change, provided that the amendment will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies with respect to such amendment or supplement;

(vi) to modify the procedures in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to Rule 17g-5; provided that (A) such modification does not increase the obligations of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer without such party’s consent (which consent may not be withheld unless such modification would materially adversely affect such party or materially increase such party’s obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and (B) such modification shall not adversely affect in any material respects the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Trust Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Trust Certificates, and; provided, further that notice of such modification is provided to all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; and

(vii) to amend or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the ratings assigned to each Class of Trust Certificates by each Rating Agency; provided that the amendment will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or any Uncertificated Interest Owner as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel or a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies;

provided, further that no amendment pursuant to any of clauses (i) through (vii) above may be made that would: (A) reduce the consent or consultation rights or the right to receive information under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the Controlling Class Representative without the consent of the Controlling Class Representative (or, if applicable, of any Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative without the consent of such Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative); (B) reduce the consultation rights or the right to receive information under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the Operating Advisor without the consent of the Operating Advisor; (C) change in any manner the obligations or rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement without the consent of the affected Mortgage Loan Seller; (D) change in any manner the obligations or rights of any Underwriter or Initial Purchaser, without the consent of the affected Underwriter or Initial Purchaser; or (E) adversely affect in any material respect any Serviced Companion Loan Holder

Expenses incurred with respect to any amendment shall be borne by the party requesting such amendment, unless the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee is requesting an amendment for the benefit of the Certificateholders, then in which case such expense will be borne by the Trust.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may also be amended from time to time by a writing signed by each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Trust Certificates representing in the aggregate not less than 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Trust Certificates affected by the amendment for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Trust Certificateholders and/or the Uncertificated Interest Owners; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class A-2 Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class A-2 Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

A-2-2

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class A-2 Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class A-2 Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified

A-2-3

Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

Prior to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners:

A-2-4

(iv) to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions (A) to the extent necessary to maintain the qualification of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund, provided that the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator have received an opinion of counsel (at the expense of the party requesting the amendment) to the effect that (1) the action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize such risk and (2) the action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Holder of the Trust Certificates or any Uncertificated Interest Owner, (B) to restrict (or to remove any existing restrictions with respect to) the transfer of the Class R Certificates, provided that the Depositor has determined that the amendment will not give rise to any tax with respect to the transfer of the Class R Certificates to a non-Permitted Transferee, (C) to the extent necessary to comply with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Exchange Act, Regulation AB, Regulation RR and/or any related regulatory actions and/or interpretations or (D) in the event that Regulation RR (or any portion thereof) or any other regulations applicable to the risk retention requirements for this securitization transaction are amended or repealed, to the extent required to comply with any such amendment or to modify or eliminate any risk retention requirements no longer applicable to this securitization transaction in light of such repeal;

(v) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other change, provided that the amendment will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies with respect to such amendment or supplement;

(vi) to modify the procedures in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to Rule 17g-5; provided that (A) such modification does not increase the obligations of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer without such party’s consent (which consent may not be withheld unless such modification would materially adversely affect such party or materially increase such party’s obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and (B) such modification shall not adversely affect in any material respects the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Trust Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Trust Certificates, and; provided, further that notice of such modification is provided to all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; and

(vii) to amend or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the ratings assigned to each Class of Trust Certificates by each Rating Agency; provided that the amendment will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or any Uncertificated Interest Owner as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel or a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies;

provided, further that no amendment pursuant to any of clauses (i) through (vii) above may be made that would: (A) reduce the consent or consultation rights or the right to receive information under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the Controlling Class Representative without the consent of the Controlling Class Representative (or, if applicable, of any Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative without the consent of such Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative); (B) reduce the consultation rights or the right to receive information under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the Operating Advisor without the consent of the Operating Advisor; (C) change in any manner the obligations or rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement without the consent of the affected Mortgage Loan Seller; (D) change in any manner the obligations or rights of any Underwriter or Initial Purchaser, without the consent of the affected Underwriter or Initial Purchaser; or (E) adversely affect in any material respect any Serviced Companion Loan Holder

Expenses incurred with respect to any amendment shall be borne by the party requesting such amendment, unless the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee is requesting an amendment for the benefit of the Certificateholders, then in which case such expense will be borne by the Trust.

Any Person(s) effecting an early termination of the Trust Fund as provided in the prior paragraph shall first notify the Controlling Class Representative, the Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative and each Certifying Certificateholder and each Uncertificated Interest Owner, or, in the case of a termination by the Holder of a Class R Certificate, notify the Certificate Administrator (who shall notify the Controlling Class Representative, the Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative and each Certifying Certificateholder and each Uncertificated Interest Owner) of its intention to do so in writing at least 30 days prior to the Anticipated Termination Date.

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class A-3 Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class A-3 Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

A-3-2

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class A-3 Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class A-3 Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

A-3-3

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

(v) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other change, provided that the amendment will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies with respect to such amendment or supplement;

(vi) to modify the procedures in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to Rule 17g-5; provided that (A) such modification does not increase the obligations of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer without such party’s consent (which consent may not be withheld unless such modification would materially adversely affect such party or materially increase such party’s obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and (B) such modification shall not adversely affect in any material respects the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Trust Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Trust Certificates, and; provided, further that notice of such modification is provided to all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; and

(vii) to amend or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the ratings assigned to each Class of Trust Certificates by each Rating Agency; provided that the amendment will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or any Uncertificated Interest Owner as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel or a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies;

provided, further that no amendment pursuant to any of clauses (i) through (vii) above may be made that would: (A) reduce the consent or consultation rights or the right to receive information under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the Controlling Class Representative without the consent of the Controlling Class Representative (or, if applicable, of any Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative without the consent of such Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative); (B) reduce the consultation rights or the right to receive information under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the Operating Advisor without the consent of the Operating Advisor; (C) change in any manner the obligations or rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the applicable

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may also be amended from time to time by a writing signed by each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Trust Certificates representing in the aggregate not less than 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Trust Certificates affected by the amendment for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Trust Certificateholders and/or the Uncertificated Interest Owners; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

Any Person(s) effecting an early termination of the Trust Fund as provided in the prior paragraph shall first notify the Controlling Class Representative, the Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative and each Certifying Certificateholder and each Uncertificated Interest Owner, or, in the case of a termination by the Holder of a Class R Certificate, notify the Certificate Administrator (who shall notify the Controlling Class Representative, the Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative and each Certifying Certificateholder and each Uncertificated Interest Owner) of its intention to do so in writing at least 30 days prior to the Anticipated Termination Date.

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class X-A Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class X-A Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator

³ The initial approximate Pass-Through Rate as of the Closing Date is 0.8142% per annum.

and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class X-A Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class X-A Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

A-4-4

and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class X-B Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class X-B Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

A-5-3

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class A-S Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class A-S Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

A-6-2

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class A-S Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class A-S Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates.

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class B Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class B Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

³ The initial approximate Pass-Through Rate as of the Closing Date is 7.2538% per annum.

A-7-2

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4^th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class B Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class B Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

A-7-3

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners:

(ii) to correct or supplement any of its provisions which may be inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or with the description thereof in the Prospectus or to correct any error;

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class C Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class C Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

³ The initial approximate Pass-Through Rate as of the Closing Date is 7.2538% per annum.

A-8-2

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class C Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class C Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

A-8-3

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

Any Person(s) effecting an early termination of the Trust Fund as provided in the prior paragraph shall first notify the Controlling Class Representative, the Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative and each Certifying Certificateholder and each Uncertificated Interest Owner, or, in the case of a termination by the Holder of a Class R Certificate, notify the Certificate Administrator (who shall notify the Controlling Class Representative, the Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative and each Certifying Certificateholder and each Uncertificated Interest Owner) of its intention to do so in writing at least 30 days prior to the Anticipated Termination Date.

any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class X-D Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class X-D Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class X-D Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the

A-9-4

Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

Prior to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners:

provided, further that no amendment pursuant to any of clauses (i) through (vii) above may be made that would: (A) reduce the consent or consultation rights or the right to receive information under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the Controlling Class Representative without the consent of the Controlling Class Representative (or, if applicable, of any Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative without the consent of such Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative); (B) reduce the consultation rights or the right to receive information under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the Operating Advisor without the consent of the Operating Advisor; (C) change in any manner the obligations or rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement without the consent of the affected Mortgage Loan Seller; (D) change in any manner the obligations or rights of any Underwriter or Initial Purchaser, without the consent of the affected Underwriter or Initial Purchaser; or (E) adversely affect in any material respect any Serviced Companion Loan Holder in its capacity as such without its consent.

any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class X-F Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class X-F Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class X-F Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the

A-10-4

final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class D Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this

Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class D Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4^th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class D Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class D Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the

A-11-4

final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

Prior to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners:

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class E Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this

Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class F, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class E Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class E Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class E Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the

A-12-4

final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

Prior to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners:

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class E Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.

Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class F Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class F Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class F Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the

A-13-4

final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby.

Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class G-RR Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4^th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class G-RR Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class G-RR Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the

A-14-4

final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

Prior to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners:

Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR and Class R Certificates (together with the Class J-RR Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, with respect to the Class J-RR Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to a share of Yield Maintenance Charges, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Interest accrued on this Certificate during an Interest Accrual Period, plus the aggregate unpaid Interest Shortfall with respect to this Certificate, if any, will be payable on the related Distribution Date to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The “Interest Accrual Period” with respect to any Distribution Date and with respect to the Class J-RR Certificates is the calendar month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs and is assumed to consist of 30 days.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the

A-15-4

final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

Prior to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

No.:  [1]

This certifies that [           ] is the registered owner of an interest in a Trust Fund, including the distributions to be made with respect to the Class R Certificates. The Trust Fund, described more fully below, consists primarily of a pool of Mortgage Loans secured by first liens on commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans held in trust by the Trustee and, other than in the case of the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans, serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Trust Fund was created, and the Mortgage Loans (other than the Outside Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans are to be serviced, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below). The Holder of this Certificate, by virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and is bound thereby. In the event that there is any conflict between any provision of this Certificate and any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, such provision of this Certificate shall be superseded to the extent of such inconsistency. Also issued under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement are the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3 Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates (together with the Class R Certificates, the “Certificates” or the “Trust Certificates”; the Holders of Certificates are collectively referred to herein as “Certificateholders” or the “Trust Certificateholders”).

This Certificate is issued pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate represents the “residual interest” in each of two “real estate mortgage investment conduits,” as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(2) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans or any Trust Subordinate Companion Loans and

A-16-3

has executed this Certificate in its limited capacity as Certificate Administrator under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will distribute (other than the final distribution on any Certificate), on the 4th Business Day following the Determination Date in each month, commencing in June 2024 (each such date, a “Distribution Date”), to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of the aggregate amount, if any, with respect to the Class R Certificates for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

All distributions (other than the final distribution on any Trust Certificate) will be made by the Certificate Administrator to the persons in whose names the Trust Certificates are registered at the close of business on each Record Date, which will be the last Business Day of the month preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. Distributions are required to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Trust Certificateholder at a bank or other entity located in the United States and having appropriate facilities to accept such funds, if such Trust Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with written wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions), or otherwise by check mailed to such Trust Certificateholder. The final distribution on each Trust Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Administrator or its agent (which may be the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar acting as such agent) that is specified in a notice to Trust Certificateholders of the pendency of the final distribution.

Any funds not distributed on the Termination Date because of the failure of any Trust Certificateholders to tender their Trust Certificates shall be set aside and held in trust for the account of the appropriate non-tendering Trust Certificateholders, whereupon the Trust Fund shall terminate. If any Trust Certificates as to which notice of the Termination Date has been given pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders, at their last addresses shown in the Certificate Register, to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation in order to receive, from such funds held, the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice any Trust Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator may, directly or through an agent, take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Trust Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining such funds and of contacting Trust Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain held. Subject to applicable state law with respect to escheatment of funds, if within two years after the second notice any Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent shall pay to the Class R Certificateholders all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Trust Certificateholder on any amount held as a result of such Trust Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Trust Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries in respect of the Mortgage Loans, as more specifically set forth herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Fund includes: (i) such Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans as from time to time are subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, together with the Mortgage Files relating thereto; (ii) all scheduled or unscheduled payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans and Trust Subordinate Companion Loans due after the Cut-Off Date or, with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Due Date in the month of substitution (exclusive of interest relating to periods prior to, but due after, the Cut-Off Date); (iii) any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (iv) all revenues received in respect of any REO Property (but, with respect to any REO Property relating to a Whole Loan, only to the extent of the Trust’s interest in the related Whole Loan); (v) the Master Servicer’s and the Trustee’s rights under the insurance policies with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan required to be maintained pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any proceeds thereof; (vi) the Trustee’s rights in any Assignments of Leases, Rents and Profits and any security agreements; (vii) the Trustee’s rights under any indemnities or guaranties given as additional security for any Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan; (viii) all of the Trustee’s and the Certificate Administrator’s rights in the Escrow Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts and all proceeds of any

A-16-4

Mortgage Loan or Trust Subordinate Companion Loan deposited in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Liquidation Proceeds Reserve Account and any REO Account, including any reinvestment income thereon; (ix) the Trustee’s rights in any environmental indemnity agreements relating to the Mortgaged Properties; (x) the Depositor’s rights under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to the extent assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (xi) the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan Regular Interests; (xii) the Loss of Value Reserve Fund; (xiii) any Threshold Event Collateral; (xiv) any Loan REMIC Regular Interest; and (xv) any Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the interests, rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the limitations thereon, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Certificate Administrator and Trustee.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth therein, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations, in like aggregate interest and of the same Class.

Prior to due presentation of this Certificate for registration of transfer, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Trust Certificateholders or the Uncertificated Interest Owners:

(i) to cure any ambiguity to the extent that it does not adversely affect any Holders of Trust Certificates or the Uncertificated Interest Owners;

(ii) to correct or supplement any of its provisions which may be inconsistent with any other provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or with the description thereof in the Prospectus or to correct any error;

A-16-5

(v) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other change, provided that the amendment will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies with respect to such amendment or supplement;

(vi) to modify the procedures in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to Rule 17g-5; provided that (A) such modification does not increase the obligations of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer without such party’s consent (which consent may not be withheld unless such modification would materially adversely affect such party or materially increase such party’s obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and (B) such modification shall not adversely affect in any material respects the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or Uncertificated Interest Owner, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Trust Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Trust Certificates, and; provided, further that notice of such modification is provided to all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; and

(vii) to amend or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the ratings assigned to each Class of Trust Certificates by each Rating Agency; provided that the amendment will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Trust Certificateholder or any Uncertificated Interest Owner as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel or a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies;

provided, further that no amendment pursuant to any of clauses (i) through (vii) above may be made that would: (A) reduce the consent or consultation rights or the right to receive information under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the Controlling Class Representative without the consent of the Controlling Class Representative (or, if applicable, of any Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative without the consent of such Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative); (B) reduce the consultation rights or the right to receive information under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement of the Operating Advisor without the consent of the Operating Advisor; (C) change in any manner the obligations or rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement without the consent of the affected Mortgage Loan Seller; (D) change in any manner the obligations or rights of any Underwriter or Initial Purchaser, without the consent of the affected Underwriter or Initial Purchaser; or (E) adversely affect in any material respect any Serviced Companion Loan Holder in its capacity as such without its consent. Expenses incurred with respect to any amendment shall be borne by the party requesting such amendment, unless the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee is requesting an amendment for the benefit of the Certificateholders, then in which case such expense will be borne by the Trust.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may also be amended from time to time by a writing signed by each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Custodian (if the Certificate Administrator is then acting as Custodian), the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Trust Certificates representing in the aggregate not less than 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Trust Certificates affected by the amendment for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling

(1)	Debt Service Coverage Ratios are updated periodically as new NOI figures become available from borrowers on an asset level. In all cases the most current DSCR provided by the Servicer is used. To the extent that no DSCR is provided by the Servicer, information from the offering document is used. The debt service coverage ratio information was provided to the Certificate Administrator by the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator has not independently confirmed the accuracy of such information.
(2)	Anticipated Remaining Term and WAM are each calculated based upon the term from the current month to the earlier of the Anticipated Repayment Date, if applicable, and the Maturity Date.
(3)	Data in this table was calculated by allocating pro-rata the current loan information to the properties based upon the Cut Off Date Balance of each property as disclosed in the offering document. The Scheduled Balance Totals reflect the aggregate balances of all pooled loans as reported in the CREFC Loan Periodic Update File. To the extent that the Scheduled Balance Total figure for the "State" and "Property" stratification tables is not equal to the sum of the scheduled balance figures for each state or property, the difference is explained by loans that have been modified into a split loan structure. The "State" and "Property" stratification tables do not include the balance of the subordinate note (sometimes called the B-piece or a "hope note") of a loan that has been modified into a split-loan structure. Rather, the scheduled balance for each state or property only reflects the balance of the senior note (sometimes called the A-piece) of a loan that has been modified into a split-loan structure.

Re: BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4 (the “Certificates”) issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee.

STATE OF	)
	)	ss.:
COUNTY OF	)

Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

I, [______], under penalties of perjury, declare that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the following representations are true, correct and complete, and being first sworn, depose and say that:

1.                                  I am a [______] of [______] (the “Purchaser”), on behalf of which I have the authority to make this affidavit.

2.                                  The Purchaser is acquiring Class R Certificates representing [__]% of the residual interest in each of the real estate mortgage investment conduits (each, a “REMIC”) designated as the “Lower-Tier REMIC” and the “Upper-Tier REMIC”, respectively, relating to

L-1-1

the Certificates for which an election is to be made under Section 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”).

3.                                  The Purchaser is not a “Disqualified Organization” (as defined below), and that the Purchaser is not acquiring the Class R Certificates for the account of, or as agent or nominee of, or with a view to the transfer of direct or indirect record or beneficial ownership thereof, to a Disqualified Organization. For the purposes hereof, a Disqualified Organization is any of the following: (i) the United States, a State or any political subdivision of a State, any possession of the United States or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality that is a corporation if all of its activities are subject to tax and, except for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, a majority of its board of directors is not selected by any such governmental unit), (ii) a foreign government, International Organization or agency or instrumentality of either of the foregoing, (iii) an organization that is exempt from tax imposed by Chapter 1 of the Code (including the tax imposed by Code Section 511 on unrelated business taxable income) on any excess inclusions (as defined in Code Section 860E(c)(1)) with respect to the Class R Certificates (except certain farmers’ cooperatives described in Code Section 521), (iv) rural electric and telephone cooperatives described in Code Section 1381(a)(2) or (v) any other Person so designated by the Certificate Registrar based upon an opinion of counsel to the effect that any transfer to such Person may cause any Trust REMIC to be subject to tax or to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding. The terms “United States”, “State” and “international organization” shall have the meanings set forth in Section 7701 of the Code.

4.                                  The Purchaser acknowledges that Section 860E(e) of the Code would impose a substantial tax on the transferor or, in certain circumstances, on an agent for the transferee, with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Class R Certificates to a Disqualified Organization.

5.                                  The Purchaser is a Permitted Transferee. For the purpose hereof, a “Permitted Transferee” is any Person or agent of such Person other than (a) a Disqualified Organization, (b) any other Person so designated by the Certificate Registrar who is unable to provide an Opinion of Counsel (provided at the expense of such Person or the Person requesting the transfer) to the effect that the transfer of an ownership interest in any Class R Certificate to such Person will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding, (c) a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person, (d) an entity treated as a U.S. partnership if any of its partners, directly or indirectly (other than through a U.S. corporation) is (or is permitted to be under the partnership agreement) a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person or (e) a U.S. Tax Person with respect to which income from a Class R Certificate is attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the transferee or any other U.S. Tax Person.

6.                                  No purpose of the acquisition of the Class R Certificates is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

7.                                  The Purchaser will not cause income from the Class R Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Purchaser or any other U.S. Tax Person.

L-1-2

8.                                  Check the applicable paragraph:

☐                                 The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the Class R Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:

(i)                                the present value of any consideration given to the Purchaser to acquire such Class R Certificate;

(ii)                             the present value of the expected future distributions on such Class R Certificate; and

(iii)                          the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding such Class R Certificate as the related REMIC generates losses.

For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Purchaser is assumed to pay tax at the highest rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but the tax rate in Section 55(b)(1)(B) of the Code (as in effect for tax years beginning on or before December 31, 2017) may be used in lieu of the highest rate specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Purchaser has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the preceding two years and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period used by the Purchaser.

☐                                 The transfer of the Class R Certificate complies with U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,

(i)                                the Purchaser is an “eligible corporation”, as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the Class R Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;

(ii)                             at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Purchaser’s two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the Purchaser had gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a Person related to the Purchaser within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10 million;

(iii)                          the Purchaser will transfer the Class R Certificate only to another “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(5); and

(iv)                         the Purchaser determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Class R Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including, but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific to the Purchaser) that it has determined in good faith.

                                           None of the above.

L-1-3

9.                                  The Purchaser historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future and the Purchaser intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Class R Certificates as they become due.

10.                            The Purchaser understands that it may incur tax liabilities with respect to the Class R Certificate in excess of any cash flows generated by such Certificate.

11.                            The Purchaser is aware that the Certificate Registrar will not register any transfer of a Class R Certificate by the Transferor unless the Purchaser, or such Purchaser’s agent, delivers to the Certificate Registrar, among other things, an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement. The Purchaser expressly agrees that it will not consummate any such transfer to any Person that does not provide an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement or as to which the Purchaser has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee or is acting as an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee.

12.                            The Purchaser represents that it is not acquiring the Class R Certificate as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee and that for so long as it retains its interest in the Class R Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee.

13.                            The Purchaser consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificate will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by a Permitted Transferee.

14.                            The Purchaser has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, a description of which provisions is set forth in the Class R Certificates; and the Purchaser expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such provisions.

15.                            The Purchaser consents (a) to the designation of the Certificate Administrator as the “partnership representative” within the meaning of Code Section 6223 (to the extent such provision is applicable to the Trust REMICs) of each Trust REMIC pursuant to Section 4.04(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and (b) to the Certificate Administrator making any elections allowed to avoid (i) the application of Code Section 6221 to the Trust REMIC and (ii) payment by the Trust REMIC under Code Section 6225 of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on the holders of the Class R Certificates.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Re: BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4, Class R

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is delivered to you in connection with the transfer by [______] (the “Transferor”) to [______] (the “Transferee”) of Class R Certificates evidencing a [__]% Percentage Interest in such Class (the “Transferred Residual Certificates”). The Class R Certificates, including the Transferred Residual Certificates, were issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as Certificate Registrar, that:

(1)       No purpose of the Transferor relating to the transfer of the Transferred Residual Certificates by the Transferor to the Transferee is or will be to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.

(2)       The Transferor understands that the Transferee has delivered to you a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit L-1. The Transferor has no actual knowledge that the Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee (as defined in such Transfer Affidavit and Agreement) and has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the Transferee’s representations in clause (9) of such Transfer Affidavit and Agreement are false.

(3)       The Transferor has at the time of this transfer conducted a reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Transferee as contemplated by Treasury regulation Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i) and, as a result of that investigation, the Transferor has determined that the Transferee has historically paid its debts as they became due and has found no significant evidence to indicate that the Transferee will not continue to pay its debts as they become due in

L-2A-1

the future. The Transferor understands that the transfer of the Transferred Residual Certificates may not be respected for United States income tax purposes (and the Transferor may continue to be liable for United States income taxes associated therewith) unless the Transferor has conducted such an investigation.

Re: BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is delivered to you in connection with the transfer by _________________ (the “Transferor”) to _________________ (the “Transferee”) of the Excess Servicing Fee Right established under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Transferee hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as the Depositor and the Master Servicer, that:

1.       The Transferee is acquiring the right to receive Excess Servicing Fees (the “Excess Servicing Fee Right”) for its own account for investment and not with a view to or for sale or transfer in connection with any distribution thereof, in whole or in part, in any manner which would violate the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any applicable state securities laws.

2.       The Transferee understands that (a) the Excess Servicing Fee Right has not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or registered or qualified under any applicable state securities laws, (b) none of the Depositor, the Trustee, Certificate Administrator or the Certificate Registrar is obligated so to register or qualify the Excess Servicing Fee Right, and (c) the Excess Servicing Fee Right may not be resold or transferred unless it is (i) registered pursuant

CC-2-1

to the Securities Act and registered or qualified pursuant to any applicable state securities laws or (ii) sold or transferred in transactions which are exempt from such registration and qualification and (A) the Depositor has received a certificate from the prospective transferor substantially in the form attached as Exhibit CC-1 to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and (B) each of Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association and the Depositor has received a certificate from the prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit CC-2 to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

3.       The Transferee understands that it may not sell or otherwise transfer the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any interest therein except in compliance with the provisions of Section 3.12 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, which provisions it has carefully reviewed.

4.       Neither the Transferee nor anyone acting on its behalf has (a) offered, pledged, sold, disposed of or otherwise transferred the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security to any Person in any manner, (b) solicited any offer to buy or accept a pledge, disposition or other transfer of the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security from any Person in any manner, (c) otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security with any Person in any manner, (d) made any general solicitation with respect to the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or (e) taken any other action with respect to the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security, which (in the case of any of the acts described in clauses (a) through (e) above) would constitute a distribution of the Excess Servicing Fee Right under the Securities Act, would render the disposition of the Excess Servicing Fee Right a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act or any state securities law or would require registration or qualification of the Excess Servicing Fee Right pursuant thereto. The Transferee will not act, nor has it authorized or will it authorize any Person to act, in any manner set forth in the foregoing sentence with respect to the Excess Servicing Fee Right, any interest in the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any other similar security.

5.       The Transferee has been furnished with all information regarding (a) the Depositor, (b) the Excess Servicing Fee Right and any payments thereon, (c) the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust Fund created pursuant thereto, (d) the nature, performance and servicing of the Mortgage Loans, and (e) all related matters that it has requested.

6.       The Transferee is (a) a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act or (b) an “accredited investor” as defined in any of paragraphs (1), (2), (3) and (7) of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act or an entity in which all of the equity owners come within such paragraphs. The Transferee has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Excess Servicing Fee Right; the Transferee has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision; and the Transferee is able to bear the economic risks of such investment and can afford a complete loss of such investment.

7.       The Transferee agrees (i) to keep all information relating to the Trust, the Trust Fund and the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and made available to it,

CC-2-2

confidential, (ii) not to use or disclose such information in any manner which could result in a violation of any provision of the Securities Act or would require registration of the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any Certificate pursuant to the Securities Act, and (iii) not to disclose such information, and to cause its officers, directors, partners, employees, agents or representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) not to disclose such information, in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, to any other Person other than the Transferee’s auditors, legal counsel and regulators, except to the extent such disclosure is required by law, court order or other legal requirement or to the extent such information is of public knowledge at the time of disclosure by such Person or has become generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by such Person; provided, however, that the Transferee or any of its Representatives may provide all or any part of such information to any other Person who is contemplating an acquisition of the Excess Servicing Fee Right if, and only if, such other Person (x) confirms in writing such prospective acquisition and (y) agrees in writing to keep such information confidential, not to use or disclose such information in any manner which could result in a violation of any provision of the Securities Act or would require registration of the Excess Servicing Fee Right or any Certificates pursuant to the Securities Act and not to disclose such information, and to cause its officers, directors, partners, employees, agents or representatives not to disclose such information, in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, to any other Person other than such other Person’s auditors, legal counsel and regulators.

8.       The Transferee acknowledges that the holder of the Excess Servicing Fee Right shall not have any rights under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement except as set forth in Section 3.12 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and that the Excess Servicing Fee Rate may be reduced to the extent provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

1.                                     The Mortgagor has consummated a defeasance of the Subject Mortgage Loan of the type checked below:**

____   a full defeasance of the entire outstanding principal balance ($____________) of the Subject Mortgage Loan; or

____   a partial defeasance of a portion ($____________) of the Subject Mortgage Loan that represents ___% of the entire principal balance of the Subject Mortgage Loan ($____________).

2.                                     The defeasance was consummated on ____________, 20__.

3.                                     The defeasance was completed in all material respects in accordance with the conditions for defeasance specified in the Loan Documents and in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

[Include the following if there is pari passu or AB debt:

4.                                     In accordance with the Loan Documents, the defeasance occurred such that:

____   Promissory Notes [A-[__]][A] and [___] were defeased simultaneously in their entirety; or

____   Promissory Note [___] was paid off in full.]

5.                                     To the knowledge of the Master Servicer any other debt related to the Subject Mortgage Loan (including mezzanine debt, senior secured debt, pari passu debt or subordinate secured debt was either paid off in full or defeased. Such debt consists of the following: [Describe debt and holder of the debt and if it was paid off or defeased].

6.                                     The defeasance collateral consists only of one or more of the following: (i) direct debt obligations of the U.S. Treasury, (ii) direct debt obligations of the Federal National Mortgage Association, (iii) direct debt obligations of the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, (iv) interest-only direct debt obligations of the Resolution Funding Corporation, (v)

DD-2

consolidated debt obligations of the Federal Home Loan Bank or (vi) securities covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (the “FDIC”) Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (“TLGP”). Based upon a written report from an independent certified accountant, such defeasance collateral consists of securities that (i) if they include a principal obligation, the principal due at maturity cannot vary or change, (ii) provide for interest at a fixed rate and (iii) are not callable prior to their respective maturity dates. In addition, if the defeasance collateral contains any TLGP securities, then:

· Such securities are eligible under TLGP;

· The master servicer (and the trustee, if it serves as the back-up advancing agent for the transaction) has waived its right to (i) collect interest on advances made on behalf of the borrower holding TLGP securities, and (ii) collect for expenses incurred in making demand on the FDIC;

· If the TLGP debt is to be used to satisfy a balloon payment, a reserve conforming to the criteria for eligible accounts was funded with a minimum of 90 days interest on the defeasance collateral to cover potential delays in receipt of the balloon payment;

· The TLGP securities mature before June 30, 2012; and

· The master servicer’s error and omissions insurance policy covers losses to the CMBS trust caused by the master servicer’s failure to make timely demand on the FDIC’s guarantee.

7.                  After the defeasance, the defeasance collateral will be owned by an entity (the “Defeasance Obligor”) that: (i) is the original Mortgagor, (ii) is a Single-Purpose Entity (as described in S&P’s criteria), (iii) is subject to restrictions in its organizational documents substantially similar to those contained in the organizational documents of the original Mortgagor with respect to bankruptcy remoteness and single purpose, (iv) has been designated as the Defeasance Obligor by the originator of the Subject Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) has previously received confirmation from Standard & Poor’s that the organizational documents of such Defeasance Obligor conform with applicable Standard & Poor’s criteria. The Defeasance Obligor owns no assets other than defeasance collateral and (only in the case of the original Mortgagor) real property securing one or more Mortgage Loans included in the pool under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the “Pool”).

8.                  If such Defeasance Obligor (together with its affiliates) holds more than one defeased loan, it does not (together with its affiliates) hold defeased loans aggregating more than $35 Million or more than five percent (5%) of the aggregate certificate balance of the Certificates, as of the date of the most recent Certificate Administrator’s Distribution Date Statement received by the Master Servicer (the “Current Report”), except to the extent the Defeasance Obligor is of the type specified in paragraph 7(v) above or the original Loan Documents do not limit the amount of defeased loans that it may hold.

DD-3

9.                  The defeasance documents require that the defeasance collateral be credited to an eligible account (as defined in S&P’s criteria) that must be maintained as a securities account by a securities intermediary that is at all times an Eligible Institution (as defined in S&P’s criteria). The securities intermediary may reinvest proceeds of the defeasance collateral only in Permitted Investments (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or as defined in the documents evidencing defeasance).

10.              The securities intermediary is obligated to pay from the proceeds of the defeasance collateral, directly to the Master Servicer’s collection account, all scheduled payments on the Subject Mortgage Loan or, in a partial defeasance, the portion of such scheduled payments attributed to the allocated loan amount for the real property defeased including any defeasance premiums set forth in the loan documents (the “Scheduled Payments”).

11.              The Master Servicer received written confirmation from an independent certified public accountant stating that (i) revenues from the defeasance collateral (without taking into account any earnings on reinvestment of such revenues) will be sufficient to timely pay each of the Monthly Payments including the payment in full of the Subject Mortgage Loan (or the allocated portion thereof in connection with a partial defeasance) on its Maturity Date (or, in the case of an ARD Loan, on its Anticipated Repayment Date), (ii) except as otherwise disclosed in the written report from an independent certified public accountant, [and disclosed below,] the revenues received in any month from the defeasance collateral will be applied to make Monthly Payments within four (4) months after the date of receipt, (iii) the defeasance collateral is not callable prior to their respective maturity dates, and (iv) interest income from the defeasance collateral to the Defeasance Obligor in any tax year will not exceed such Defeasance Obligor’s interest expense for the Subject Mortgage Loan (or the allocated portion thereof in a partial defeasance) for such year, other than in the year in which the Maturity Date or Anticipated Repayment Date will occur, when interest income will exceed interest expense.

12.              The Master Servicer received opinions of counsel that, subject to customary qualifications, (i) the defeasance will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC for purpose of the Code, (ii) the agreements executed by the Mortgagor and the Defeasance Obligor in connection with the defeasance are enforceable against them in accordance with their terms, [and] (iii) the Trustee will have a perfected, first priority security interest in the defeasance collateral.

13.              The agreements executed in connection with the defeasance (i) prohibit subordinate liens against the defeasance collateral, (ii) provide for payment from sources other than the defeasance collateral of all fees and expenses of the securities intermediary for administering the defeasance and the securities account and all fees and expenses of maintaining the existence of the Defeasance Obligor, (iii) permit release of surplus defeasance collateral and earnings on reinvestment to the Defeasance Obligor only after the Subject Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, (iv) include representations and/or covenants of the Mortgagor and/or securities intermediary substantially as set forth on Exhibit B hereto, (v) provide for survival of such representations; and (vi) do not permit waiver of such representations and covenants.

14.              At the time of the defeasance of the Subject Mortgage Loan, the Subject Mortgage Loan is (x) not one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans by Stated Principal Balance, (y) a

DD-4

Mortgage Loan with a Stated Principal Balance equal to or less than $35,000,000 and (z) a Mortgage Loan that represents less than 5% of the Stated Principal Balance of all Mortgage Loans.

15.              Copies of all material agreements, instruments, organizational documents, opinions of counsel, accountant’s report and other items delivered in connection with the defeasance will be provided to you upon request.

16.              The individual executing this notice is an authorized officer or a servicing officer of the Master Servicer.

3.                  [Debtor] has taken all steps necessary to cause the securities intermediary to identify in its records the [Secured Party] as the person having a security entitlement against the securities intermediary in the [Securities Account].

CREFI AND GACC ASSET REVIEW PROCEDURES

 

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (“PSA”), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall perform an Asset Review with respect to each representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller only with respect to each Delinquent Loan in accordance with the procedures set forth below (each such procedure, a “Test”); provided, however, the Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, modify any Test and/or associated Review Materials described in this Exhibit JJ-1 if, and only to the extent, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that it is necessary to modify such Test and/or such associated Review Materials in order to facilitate its Asset Review in accordance with the Asset Review Standard. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the PSA or, solely with respect to a representation and warranty, the meaning set forth in the related mortgage loan purchase agreement where Citi Real Estate Funding Inc. or German American Capital Corporation is the Seller (the “Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement”). For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the performance of the following Tests:

(A) With respect to any representation and warranty that includes a knowledge qualifier (e.g., to the Mortgage Loan Seller’s knowledge, etc.), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be responsible for any investigation or review beyond that set forth in the applicable Test related to such representation and warranty;

(B) With respect to any representation and warranty that includes the examination of an insurance policy or Title Policy, the Asset Representations Reviewer will be permitted to engage a qualified consultant to perform a review of the applicable policy, and will be allowed to rely upon the conclusions of the consultant when making a determination as to whether there is a Test pass.

(C) The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be under no duty to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion;

(D) Unless otherwise provided in the Test, the “as of” date for the testing of a representation is as of the Closing Date;

(E) Unless otherwise provided in the Test, if there is more than one version of the same document with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged Property, the document that will be used by the Asset Representations Reviewer in testing is the document that is dated as of the Closing Date or, if none, the document closest prior to the Closing Date;

(F) With respect to each representation and warranty and its related Test(s), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall take into account any exceptions to such representation and warranty described in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to a Mortgage Loan, and a Test pass shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Test if the sole reason for not satisfying the applicable Test is caused by such exception(s);

Exhibit JJ-1-1

(G) Evidence of a failure of a Test could result from (i) an affirmative determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer that the Test failed to achieve a Test pass, or (ii) a determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer that the documentation included in the Review Materials (after making such request for any missing documents in the manner provided for in the PSA) is not sufficient to perform the Test; and

(H) A determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer of a Test pass or a Test failure shall not constitute a determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer of (i) the existence or nonexistence of a Material Defect, or (ii) whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will only be required to perform the Tests described in this Exhibit JJ-1, and will not be obligated to perform additional procedures on any Delinquent Loan, even if a different set of procedures or Review Materials could produce a different outcome. Notwithstanding the required Tests, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to review any information other than (1) Review Materials specified in the related Test and (2) if applicable, Unsolicited Information. The Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider Unsolicited Information relevant to the Tests subject to the terms of the PSA. If the Asset Representations Reviewer considers Unsolicited Information, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall take into account such Unsolicited Information, in addition to the Review Materials referred to in the applicable Test(s) procedure when making a determination as to whether there is a Test pass.

Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the PSA or, solely with respect to a representation and warranty, the meaning set forth in the related mortgage loan purchase agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement”). For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the performance of the following Tests:

 

(A) With respect to any representation and warranty that includes a knowledge qualifier (e.g., to the Mortgage Loan Seller’s knowledge, etc.), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be responsible for any investigation or review beyond that set forth in the applicable Test related to such representation and warranty;

 

(B) With respect to any representation and warranty that includes the examination of an insurance policy or Title Policy, the Asset Representations Reviewer will be permitted to engage a qualified consultant to perform a review of the applicable policy, and will be allowed to rely upon the conclusions of the consultant when making a determination as to whether there is a Test pass.

 

(C) The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be under no duty to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion;

 

(D) Unless otherwise provided in the Test, the “as of” date for the testing of a representation is as of the Closing Date;

 

(E) Unless otherwise provided in the Test, if there is more than one version of the same document with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged Property, the document that will be used by the Asset Representations Reviewer in testing is the document that is dated as of the Closing Date or, if none, the document closest prior to the Closing Date;

 

(F) With respect to each representation and warranty and its related Test(s), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall take into account any exceptions to such

Exhibit JJ-2-1

representation and warranty described in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to a Mortgage Loan, and a Test pass shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Test if the sole reason for not satisfying the applicable Test is caused by such exception(s);

 

(G) Evidence of a failure of a Test could result from (i) an affirmative determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer that the Test failed to achieve a Test pass, or (ii) a determination by Asset Representations Reviewer that the documentation included in the Review Materials (after making such request for any missing documents in the manner provided for in the PSA) is not sufficient to perform the Test; and

(H) A determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer of a Test pass or a Test failure shall not constitute a determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer of (i) the existence or nonexistence of a Material Defect, or (ii) whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will only be required to perform the Tests described in this Exhibit JJ-2, and will not be obligated to perform additional procedures on any Delinquent Loan, even if a different set of procedures or Review Materials could produce a different outcome. Notwithstanding the required Tests, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to review any information other than (1) Review Materials specified in the related Test and (2) if applicable, Unsolicited Information. The Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider Unsolicited Information relevant to the Tests subject to the terms of the PSA.

damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.   An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the probable maximum loss or scenario expected loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the PML would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC in an amount not less than 100% of the PML.   The Mortgage Loan documents require insurance proceeds (or an amount equal to such insurance proceeds) in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, the Mortgagee (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.   All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section that are required by the Mortgage Loan documents to be paid as of the Cut-off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the Mortgagee under the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the trustee (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the Mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by the Seller.		loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

This Pooling and Servicing Agreement is dated and effective as of March 1, 2024, among Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

The Depositor intends to sell commercial mortgage pass-through certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”), to be issued hereunder in multiple classes (each, a “Class”), which in the aggregate, will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust to be created hereunder, the primary assets of which will be a pool of commercial mortgage loans. As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator shall elect or shall cause an election to be made to treat designated portions of the Trust for federal income tax purposes as two separate real estate mortgage investment conduits (the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC” and together, the “Trust REMICs”).

The Depositor intends to sell the Certificates to the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers.

LOWER-TIER REMIC

The Lower-Tier REMIC will hold the Mortgage Loans and will issue the Class LA1, Class LA3, Class LAS, Class LB, Class LC, Class LD, Class LERR, Class LFRR, Class LGRR, Class LHRR and Class LJRR Uncertificated Interests (the “Lower-Tier Regular Interests”), which will evidence the “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC created hereunder. The Lower-Tier REMIC will also issue the uncertificated Class LR Interest, which is the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions and is represented by the Class R Certificates.

The following table sets forth the Original Lower-Tier Principal Amounts and per annum rates of interest for the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Class LR Interest:

Class Designation	Interest Rate	Original Lower-Tier Principal Amount
Class LA1	(1)	$	821,000
Class LA3	(1)	$	619,650,000
Class LAS	(1)	$	96,395,000
Class LB	(1)	$	43,211,000
Class LC	(1)	$	32,132,000
Class LD	(1)	$	14,404,000
Class LERR	(1)	$	13,295,000
Class LFRR	(1)	$	17,728,000
Class LGRR	(1)	$	12,188,000
Class LHRR	(1)	$	9,972,000
Class LJRR	(1)	$	26,592,000
Class LR	None(2)		None(2)

 

⁽¹⁾ The interest rate for each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests on any Distribution Date will be the Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate for such Distribution Date.

⁽²⁾ The Class LR Interest (evidenced by the Class R Certificates) will not have a Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Available Funds remaining in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account after distributing the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount will be deemed distributed to the Class LR Interest and shall be payable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

UPPER-TIER REMIC

The Upper-Tier REMIC will hold the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and will issue the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E-RR, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class H-RR and Class J-RR Certificates, each of which represents a class of “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC created hereunder. The Upper-Tier REMIC shall also issue the uncertificated Class UR Interest, which is the sole class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions and is represented by the Class R Certificates. The Class UR Interest will not have a Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Available Funds remaining in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account after all required distributions under this Agreement have been made to each Class of Regular Certificates will be deemed distributed to the Class UR Interest and shall be payable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

The foregoing REMIC structure is intended to cause all of the cash from the Mortgage Loans to flow through to the Upper-Tier REMIC as cash flow on the Regular Certificates, without creating any shortfall, actual or potential (other than for credit losses), to any Regular Certificate. To the extent that the structure is believed to diverge from such intention, the parties identifying such ambiguity shall notify the other parties hereto and the parties involved will resolve such ambiguities to accomplish the intended result and will to the extent necessary rectify any drafting errors or seek clarification to the structure without Certificateholder approval (but with guidance of counsel) to accomplish such intention, including, to the extent necessary, making any amendments in accordance with Section 13.01 of this Agreement.

THE CERTIFICATES

The following table (and related paragraphs) sets forth the designation, the initial pass-through rate (the “Pass-Through Rate”) and the aggregate initial principal amount (in the case of the Principal Balance Certificates, the “Original Certificate Balance”) or the aggregate initial notional amount (in the case of the Class X Certificates, the “Original Notional Amount”), as applicable, for each Class of Certificates:

Class of Certificates	Approximate Initial Pass-Through Rate			Original Certificate Balance or Original Notional Amount
Class A-1 Certificates		5.48900%		$	821,000
Class A-3 Certificates		5.94600%		$	619,650,000
Class X-A Certificates		1.43111%	(1)	$	620,471,000	(2)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan, delivery of the Mortgage File (other than with respect to the original Mortgage Note, related allonge and assignments held by or from the related Mortgage Loan Seller) by either of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers shall satisfy the delivery requirements for both of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers.

  -71-  

 

from the principal portion of future general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.

“Nonrecoverable P&I Advance”: Any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Mortgage Loan (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan) which, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or the Trustee, in its good faith business judgment, as the case may be, determines will not be ultimately recoverable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, from Late Collections or any other recovery on or in respect of such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may, at its option, make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance and shall deliver to the Master Servicer (and with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan, to any Other Servicer, and with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer), the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the 17g-5 Information Provider notice of such determination. Any such determination (other than by the Special Servicer) shall not be binding upon (but may be conclusively relied upon by) the Master Servicer and the Trustee, and any such determination by the Special Servicer shall be conclusive and binding upon the Master Servicer and the Trustee (but this statement shall not be construed to entitle the Special Servicer to reverse the determination of the Master Servicer or the Trustee or to prohibit the Master Servicer or the Trustee from making a determination that a P&I Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance), provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall have no such obligation to make an affirmative determination that any P&I Advance is or would be recoverable and in the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such P&I Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, such decision shall remain with the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion, and not all, of any previously made or proposed P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. With respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan, if any Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Trustee or Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with a securitization of the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan determines that a principal and interest advance with respect to the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan, if made, would be nonrecoverable, such determination shall not be binding on the Master Servicer and the Trustee as it relates to any proposed P&I Advance with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Trustee may conclusively rely on the non-recoverability determination of the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Trustee under the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement. Similarly, with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines that any P&I Advance with respect to a related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, such determination shall not be binding on the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer and related Non-Serviced Trustee as it relates to any proposed P&I Advance with respect to the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan (unless the related Non-Serviced PSA provides otherwise). In making such recoverability determination, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled (a) to consider (among other things) (i) the obligations of the

  -72-  

 

Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, as it may have been modified and (ii) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as-is” or then-current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse changes with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, (b) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) future expenses, (c) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) the timing of recoveries and (d) to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advances which, at the time of such consideration, the recovery of which are being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer, in light of the fact that related proceeds are a source of recovery not only for the Advance under consideration but also a potential source of recovery for such delayed or deferred Advance. In addition, any Person, in considering whether a P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be entitled to give due regard to the existence of any outstanding Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount with respect to other Mortgage Loans, the reimbursement of which, at the time of such consideration, is being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee because there is insufficient principal available for such recovery, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan are a source of recovery not only for the P&I Advance under consideration, but also as a potential source of reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts which are or may be being deferred or delayed. In addition, any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and, consistent with the Servicing Standard, in the case of the Master Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), may obtain at the expense of the Trust any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for making a recoverability determination. Absent bad faith, the Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s determination as to the recoverability of any P&I Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders. The determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, that a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance has been made or that any proposed P&I Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, or any updated or changed recoverability determination, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered by either the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer to the other and to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (but, in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and only with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan) (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer), the Operating Advisor (but only in the case of the Special Servicer) and the Depositor, or by the Trustee to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator (and, in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer). The Officer’s Certificate shall set forth such determination of nonrecoverability and the considerations of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, forming the basis of such determination (which shall be accompanied by, to the extent available, related income and expense statements, rent rolls,

  -73-  

 

occupancy status, property inspections and any other information used by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, to make such determination and shall include any existing Appraisal of the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property). The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination that a P&I Advance is or would be nonrecoverable, and the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on and shall be bound by the Special Servicer’s determination that a P&I Advance is or would be nonrecoverable. In the case of a Crossed Underlying Loan (if any), such recoverability determination shall take into account the cross-collateralization of the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group.

“Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance”: Any Servicing Advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), Serviced Whole Loan or REO Property which, the Trustee, in its good faith business judgment or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, determines will not be ultimately recoverable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the Reimbursement Rate, from Late Collections or any other recovery on or in respect of such Mortgage Loan, Serviced Whole Loan or REO Property. In making such recoverability determination, such Person shall be entitled (a) to consider (among other things) (i) the obligations of the Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, as it may have been modified and (ii) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as-is” or then-current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse changes with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, (b) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) future expenses, (c) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) the timing of recoveries and (d) to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advances which, at the time of such consideration, the recovery of which are being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee because there is insufficient principal available for such recovery, in light of the fact that related proceeds are a source of recovery not only for the Advance under consideration but also a potential source of recovery for such delayed or deferred Advance. In addition, any Person, in considering whether a Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, shall be entitled to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts with respect to other Mortgage Loans, the reimbursement of which, at the time of such consideration, is being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan are a source of recovery not only for the Servicing Advance under consideration, but also as a potential source of recovery of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts which are or may be being deferred or delayed. In addition, any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and, consistent with the Servicing Standard, in the case of the Master Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), may obtain at the expense of the Trust any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for

  -74-  

 

making a recoverability determination. Absent bad faith, the Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s determination as to the recoverability of any Servicing Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders. The determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, that a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance has been made or that any proposed Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, or any updated or changed recoverability determination, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered by either the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer to the other and to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (but, in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and only with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan) (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer), the Operating Advisor (but only in the case of the Special Servicer) and the Depositor, or by the Trustee to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer); provided, however, that the Special Servicer may, at its option, make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that any Servicing Advance previously made or proposed to be made is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance and shall deliver to the Master Servicer (and with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan, to any Other Servicer), the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the 17g-5 Information Provider notice of such determination. Any such determination (other than by the Special Servicer) shall not be binding upon (but may be conclusively relied upon by) the Master Servicer and the Trustee, and any such determination by the Special Servicer shall be binding upon the Master Servicer and the Trustee (but this statement shall not be construed to entitle the Special Servicer to reverse the determination of the Master Servicer or the Trustee or to prohibit the Master Servicer or the Trustee from making a determination that a Servicing Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance), provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall have no such obligation to make an affirmative determination that any Servicing Advance is or would be recoverable and in the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such Servicing Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, such decision shall remain with the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion, and not all, of any previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall each have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Officer’s Certificate shall set forth such determination of nonrecoverability and the considerations of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, forming the basis of such determination (which shall be accompanied by, to the extent available, related income and expense statements, rent rolls, occupancy status, property inspections and any other information used by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, to make such determination and shall include any existing Appraisal with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan or related Mortgaged Property). The Special Servicer shall promptly furnish any party required to make Servicing Advances hereunder with any information in its possession regarding the Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as such party required to make Servicing Advances may reasonably request for purposes of making recoverability determinations. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination that a Servicing Advance is or would be nonrecoverable, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination that

  -75-  

 

a Servicing Advance is or would be nonrecoverable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Special Servicer requests that the Master Servicer make a Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer may conclusively rely on such request as evidence that such Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request more frequently than once per calendar month with respect to Servicing Advances other than emergency advances (although such request may relate to more than one Servicing Advance). In the case of a cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan (if any), such recoverability determination shall take into account the cross-collateralization of the related cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan. The determination as to the recoverability of any Servicing Advance or property protection advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be made by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer or Non-Serviced Trustee, as the case may be, pursuant to the related Non-Serviced PSA.

non-delivered document or instrument (with evidence of filing or recording thereon and certified in the case of the documents and/or instruments referred to in clause (ii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” by the appropriate county recorder’s office or the applicable title insurance company to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording) is delivered to the Custodian on or before the date set forth herein. Neither the Trustee nor any Custodian shall in any way be liable for any failure by any Mortgage Loan Seller or the Depositor to comply with the delivery requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01(b). If, on the Closing Date as to any Mortgage Loan, subject to the next sentence, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is required to, but cannot, deliver (in complete and recordable form or form suitable for filing or recording, if applicable) any one of the assignments in favor of the Trustee referred to in clause (iii), clause (v), or clause (x) of the definition of “Mortgage File” solely because of the unavailability of filing or recording information as to any existing document or instrument, such Mortgage Loan Seller may provisionally satisfy the delivery requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01(b) with respect to such assignment by delivering with respect to such Mortgage Loan on the Closing Date an omnibus assignment of such Mortgage Loan substantially in the form of Exhibit H; provided that all required original assignments with respect to such Mortgage Loan (in fully complete and recordable form or form suitable for filing or recording, if applicable) are delivered to the Custodian within one hundred-eighty (180) days after the Closing Date (or within such longer period, not to exceed eighteen (18) months, which the Custodian shall consent to so long as the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is, as certified in writing to the Trustee and the Custodian no less often than every ninety (90) days following such 180–day period after the Closing Date, attempting in good faith to obtain from the appropriate public filing office or county recorder’s office the applicable filing or recording information as to the related document or instrument); and provided, further, that in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the delivery of any such assignments shall be subject to clause (e) and clause (f) of the first proviso to the definition of “Mortgage File” herein. As to any Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its agent is responsible for recording or filing, as applicable, any one of the assignments in favor of the Trustee referred to in clause (iii), clause (v), or clause (x) of the definition of “Mortgage File”, and such Mortgage Loan Seller may provisionally satisfy the delivery requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01(b) with respect to such assignment by delivering to the Custodian with respect to such Mortgage Loan on the Closing Date a copy of such assignment in the form sent for recording or filing or (except for recording or filing information not yet available) to be sent for recording or filing; provided that an original or copy of such assignment (with evidence of recording or filing, as applicable, indicated thereon) shall be delivered to the Custodian as contemplated by Section 2.01(c) of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to letters of credit referred to in clause (xii) of the definition of “Mortgage File”, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver the original to the Master Servicer (which letter of credit shall be titled in the name of, or assigned to, “Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, on behalf of Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Trustee, for the benefit of the registered holders of BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-5C25, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C25”), and a copy to the Custodian or, if such original has been submitted by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller to the issuing bank to effect a reissuance, assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Master Servicer (in care of the Trustee, as titled above) that may be required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of

If a letter of credit referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Mortgage Loan documents, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the related Mortgage Loan Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Custodian within forty-five (45) days of the Closing Date. If not otherwise paid by the related Mortgagor, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trust and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trust.

(c)               Except in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller is required at its sole cost and expense, to itself, or to engage a third party to, put each Assignment of Mortgage, each assignment of Assignment of Leases and each assignment of each UCC Financing Statement (collectively, the “Assignments” and, individually, “Assignment”) relating to the Mortgage Loans conveyed by it under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in proper form for filing or recording, as applicable, and to submit such Assignments for filing or recording, as the case may be, in the applicable public filing or recording office. On the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan Sellers may deliver one (1) omnibus assignment for all such Mortgage Loans substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto to the Custodian as provided in Section 2.01(b). Except under the circumstances provided for in the last sentence of this Section 2.01(c) and except in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller will itself, or a third party at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense will, promptly (and in any event within one hundred-twenty (120) days after the later of the Closing Date and the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s actual receipt of the related documents and the necessary recording and filing information) cause to be submitted for recording or filing, as the case may be, in the appropriate public office for real property records or UCC Financing Statements, as appropriate, each Assignment. Each such Assignment submitted for recording shall reflect that it (or a file copy thereof in the case of a UCC Assignment) should be returned by the public recording office to the Custodian or its designee following recording or filing (or to the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its agent who will then be responsible for delivery of the same to the Custodian or its designee). Any such Assignment received by the Custodian shall be promptly included in the related Mortgage File and be deemed a part thereof, and any such Assignment received by the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its agent shall be required to be delivered to the Custodian to be included as part of the related Mortgage File within thirty (30) days after receipt. If any such document or instrument is determined to be incomplete or not to meet the recording or filing requirements of the jurisdiction in which it is to be recorded or filed, or is lost by the public office or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, on or about one

  -124-

If, by the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Custodian has not received confirmation of the recording or filing as the case may be, of any such Assignment, it shall so advise the related Mortgage Loan Seller who may then pursue such confirmation itself or request that the Custodian pursue such confirmation at the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense, and upon such a request and provision for payment of such expenses satisfactory to the Custodian, the Custodian, at the expense of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, shall cause a search of the land records of each applicable jurisdiction and of the records of the offices of the applicable Secretary of State for confirmation that the Assignment appears in such records and retain a copy of such confirmation in the related Mortgage File. In the event that confirmation of the recording or filing of an Assignment cannot be obtained, the Custodian or the related Mortgage Loan Seller, as applicable, shall promptly inform the other and the Custodian shall provide such Mortgage Loan Seller with a copy of the Assignment and request the preparation of a new Assignment. The related Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay the expenses for the preparation of replacement Assignments for any Assignments which, having been properly submitted for filing or recording to the appropriate governmental office by the Custodian, fail to appear of record and must be resubmitted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no requirement to record any assignment to the Trustee referred to in clause (iii) or (v) of the definition of “Mortgage File,” or to file any UCC-3 to the Trustee referred to in clause (ix) of the definition of “Mortgage File,” in those jurisdictions where, in the written opinion of local counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the related Mortgage Loan Seller) acceptable to the Depositor and the Trustee, such recordation and/or filing is not required to protect the Trustee’s interest in the related Mortgage Loan against sale, further assignment, satisfaction or discharge by the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any Sub-Servicer or the Depositor.

(d)               All documents and records in the Depositor’s or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s possession relating to the Mortgage Loans (including, in each case, financial statements, appraisals, environmental reports, engineering reports, transaction screens, seismic assessment reports, leases, rent rolls, Insurance Policies and certificates, major space leases, legal opinions, tenant estoppels and any other relevant documents relating to the origination and servicing of any Mortgage Loan or related Whole Loan that are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the applicable Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, but excluding the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s internal communications (including such communications between such Mortgage Loan Seller and its Affiliates) and underwriting analysis (including documents prepared by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or any of its Affiliates for such purposes), draft documents, attorney-client communications that are privileged communications or constitute legal or other due diligence analyses and credit underwriting or due diligence analyses or data) that (i) are not required to be a part of a Mortgage File in accordance with the definition thereof and (ii) are reasonably necessary for the servicing of each such Mortgage Loan, together with copies of all documents in each Mortgage File, shall be delivered by the Depositor or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller to the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date (except that copies of any instruments of assignment that are returned to the Custodian by the related public recording office in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.01(c) shall be delivered by the Custodian to the Master Servicer when

Such documents and records shall be any documents and records (with the exception of any items excluded under the immediately preceding sentence) that would otherwise be a part of the Servicing File.

(e)               In connection with the Depositor’s assignment pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, on or before two (2) Business Days after the Closing Date, a fully executed original counterpart of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements, as in full force and effect, without amendment or modification, on the Closing Date.

(f)                The Depositor shall use its reasonable best efforts to require that, promptly after the Closing Date, but in all events within three (3) Business Days after the Closing Date, each of the Mortgage Loan Sellers shall cause all unapplied reserve funds and Escrow Payments in the possession or under the control of the Mortgage Loan Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) transferred by such Mortgage Loan Seller, whether such accounts are held in the name of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or any other name to be transferred to the Master Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer) for deposit into Servicing Accounts.

(g)               With respect to the Franchise Required Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee will be required to provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor (with a copy of such notice or request to the Master Servicer) within forty-five (45) days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter). If the Master Servicer is unable to acquire any such replacement comfort letter (or new document or acknowledgement, as applicable) within one hundred twenty (120) days of the Closing Date, the Master Servicer shall notify the related Mortgage Loan Seller that no such replacement comfort letter has been received.

(h)               Each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall provide that within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, each Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered the Diligence Files for each of its Mortgage Loans to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence Files to the Designated Site.

(c)               The Custodian shall review the Mortgage Loan documents received subsequent to the Closing Date; and, on or about the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Custodian shall, in the form attached as Exhibit Q, certify in writing to each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (as to each Mortgage Loan listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any related Mortgage Loan as to which a Liquidation Event has occurred) or any related Mortgage Loan specifically identified in any exception report annexed to such writing) that, (i) subject to the first proviso of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein and Section 2.01, all documents specified in clauses (i) through (v), (viii), (ix), (xi), (xii) and (xiii), if any, of the definition of “Mortgage File”, as applicable, are in its possession, (ii) the foregoing documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers have been reviewed by the Custodian and appear regular on their face and appear to be executed and relate to such Mortgage Loan, if applicable, and (iii) based on such examination and only as to the foregoing documents, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the items specified in clauses (iv), (vi) and (viii)(c) in the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” is correct.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.02 and Section 2.03(b) to the contrary, in the case of a Material Defect in any of the documents specified in clauses (ii) through (v), (vii), (viii) and (ix) in the definition of “Mortgage File”, which Material Defect results solely from a delay in the return of the related documents from the applicable filing or recording office and gives rise to a repurchase or substitution obligation on the part of the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the subject Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Directing Certificateholder, in its sole judgment, may (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan and, with respect to any other Mortgage Loan, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event), and the Special Servicer may, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, permit the related Mortgage Loan Seller in lieu of repurchasing or substituting for the related Mortgage Loan, to deposit with the Master Servicer an amount, to be

  -129-  

 

held in trust in a segregated Eligible Account (which may be a sub-account of the Collection Account), equal to 25% of the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan (in the alternative, the related Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver to the Master Servicer a letter of credit in such amount, with a copy to the Custodian). Such funds or letter of credit, as applicable, shall be held by the Master Servicer (i) until the date on which the Custodian determines and notifies the Master Servicer that such Material Defect has been cured or the related Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund, at which time the Master Servicer shall return such funds (or letter of credit) to the related Mortgage Loan Seller, or (ii) until the same are applied to the Purchase Price (or the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if applicable) as set forth below in this Section 2.02(d) in the event of a repurchase or substitution by the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Notwithstanding the two immediately preceding sentences, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer certifies to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Custodian that it has determined in the exercise of its reasonable judgment that the document with respect to which such Material Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the mortgagee’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on collateral securing the related Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or Additional Repurchase Obligor shall be required to repurchase or substitute for the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with, and to the extent required by, the terms and conditions of Section 2.03(b) and Section 5 or Section 19, as applicable, of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that such Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be required to repurchase the Mortgage Loan for a period of ninety (90) days after receipt of a notice to repurchase (together with any applicable extension period) if it is attempting to recover the document from the applicable filing or recording office and provides an officer’s certificate setting forth what actions such Mortgage Loan Seller is pursuing in connection with such recovery. In the event of a repurchase or substitution, upon the date of such repurchase or substitution, and in the event that the related Mortgage Loan Seller has delivered a letter of credit to the Master Servicer in accordance with this Section 2.02(d), the Master Servicer shall, to the extent necessary, draw on the letter of credit and deposit the proceeds of such draw, into the Collection Account to be applied to the Purchase Price (or the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if applicable, in which event, the amount of such funds or proceeds that exceed the Substitution Shortfall Amount shall be returned to the related Mortgage Loan Seller) in accordance with Section 2.03(b). All such funds deposited in the Collection Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments, at the direction and for the benefit of the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Such funds shall be treated as an “outside reserve fund” under the REMIC Provisions, which, together with any reimbursement from the Lower-Tier REMIC, is beneficially owned by the related Mortgage Loan Seller for federal income tax purposes, which Mortgage Loan Seller shall remain liable for any taxes payable on income or gain with respect thereto.

(e)               It is herein acknowledged that neither the Trustee nor any Custodian is under any duty or obligation (i) to determine whether any of the documents specified in clauses (vi), (vii) and (xii) through (xviii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” exist or are required to be delivered by the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers or any other Person (unless identified on the Mortgage Loan Checklist) or (ii) to inspect, review or examine any of the documents, instruments, certificates or other papers relating to the Mortgage Loans delivered to it to determine that the same are genuine, enforceable, duly authorized, sufficient to perfect and maintain the perfection of a security interest or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they are other

  -130-  

 

than what they purport to be on their face and, with respect to the documents specified in clause (viii) of the definition of the “Mortgage File”, whether the insurance is effective as of the date of the recordation, whether all endorsements or riders issued are included in the file or if the policy has not been issued whether any acceptable replacement document has been dated the date of the related Mortgage Loan funding. Further, with respect to the UCC Financing Statements referenced in the Mortgage File, absent actual knowledge to the contrary or copies of UCC Financing Statements delivered to the Custodian as part of the Mortgage File indicating otherwise, the Custodian may assume, for the purposes of the filings and the certification to be delivered in accordance with this Section 2.02 that the related Mortgage File should include one state level UCC Financing Statement filing for each Mortgaged Property (or with respect to any Mortgage Loan that has two or more Mortgagors, for each Mortgagor, except to the extent multiple Mortgagors are named as debtors in the same UCC Financing Statement filing), or if the Custodian has received notice that a particular UCC Financing Statement was filed as a fixture filing, that the related Mortgage File should include only a local UCC Financing Statement filing for each Mortgaged Property (or with respect to any Mortgage Loan that has two or more Mortgagors, for each Mortgagor, except to the extent multiple Mortgagors are named as debtors in the same UCC Financing Statement filing). The assignments of the UCC Financing Statements to be assigned to the Trust will be delivered on the national forms (or on such other form as may be acceptable for filing or recording in the applicable jurisdiction) and in a format suitable for filing or recording, as applicable, and will be filed or recorded in the jurisdiction(s) where such UCC Financing Statements were originally filed or recorded, as indicated in the documents provided, and in accordance with then-current laws.

(f)                If, in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files or at any time thereafter, the Custodian finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File (1) not to have been properly executed, (2) subject to the timing requirements of Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c), not to have been delivered, (3) to contain information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule or (4) to be defective on its face (each, a “Defect” in the related Mortgage File), the Custodian shall promptly so notify the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (and in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date and every calendar quarter thereafter until all Defects are corrected) by providing a Custodial Exception Report setting forth for each affected Mortgage Loan, with particularity, the nature of such Defect (in a form reasonably acceptable to the Custodian and such Mortgage Loan Seller and separating items required to be in the Mortgage File but never delivered from items which were delivered by such Mortgage Loan Seller but are out for recording or filing and have not been returned by the recorder’s office or filing office).

Pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, each of the Mortgage Loan Sellers will be required to effect (at the expense of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller) the assignment and recordation of its respective Mortgage Loan documents until the assignment and recordation of all such Mortgage Loan documents has been completed.

(g)               If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (i) receives a Repurchase Request or any other request or demand from any Person for a Mortgage Loan Seller to repurchase or replace a Mortgage Loan because of an alleged Defect or Breach (together with a Repurchase

  -131-  

 

Request, a “15Ga-1 Repurchase Request”) (the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to the extent it receives such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, the “Repurchase Request Recipient” with respect to such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request); or (ii) receives any withdrawal of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request by the Person making such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request or any rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (or such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is forwarded to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer by another party hereto), then the Repurchase Request Recipient shall deliver notice (which may be by electronic format so long as a “backup” hard copy of such notice is also delivered on or prior to the next Business Day) of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request or withdrawal or rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (each, a “15Ga-1 Notice”) to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (other than in the case of a rejection by such Mortgage Loan Seller) and the Depositor, in each case within ten (10) Business Days from such Repurchase Request Recipient’s receipt thereof.

Each 15Ga-1 Notice shall include (i) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the date the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is received by the Repurchase Request Recipient or the date any withdrawal of the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is received by the Repurchase Request Recipient, as applicable, (iii) if known, the basis for the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (as asserted in the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request), (iv) the identity of the Person making such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, and (v) a statement from the Repurchase Request Recipient as to whether it currently plans to pursue such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request.

A Repurchase Request Recipient shall not be required to provide any information in a 15Ga-1 Notice protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. The Depositor shall cause the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to provide that (i) any 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to this Section 2.02(g) is so provided only to assist the Mortgage Loan Sellers and Depositor or their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law or regulation and (ii) (A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Repurchase Request Recipient and (B) no information provided pursuant to this Section 2.02(g) by a Repurchase Request Recipient, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Repurchase Request Recipient may have with respect to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including with respect to any 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request that is the subject of a 15Ga-1 Notice.

In the event that the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian receives a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, such party shall promptly forward or otherwise provide written notice of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request to the Master Servicer, if relating to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, or to the Special Servicer, if relating to a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property, and include the following statement in the related correspondence: “This is a ‘15Ga-1 Repurchase Request’ under Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to the BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-5C25, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C25 requiring action by you as the ‘Repurchase Request Recipient’ thereunder.” Upon receipt of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, such party shall be deemed to be the Repurchase Request Recipient in respect of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, and such party shall comply with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.02(g) with respect to such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request. In no event shall the Custodian, by virtue of this provision, be required to provide any notice other

  -132-  

 

than as set forth in Section 2.02 of this Agreement in connection with its review of the Mortgage File.

If the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian receives notice or has knowledge of a withdrawal or a rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request of which notice has been previously received or given, and such notice was not received from or copied to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, then such party shall give notice of such withdrawal or rejection to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. Any such notice received by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian shall also be provided to the Depositor and, in the case of a withdrawal notice, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller.

In the event that a Mortgage Loan is repurchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 of this Agreement, the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) shall promptly notify the Depositor of such repurchase or replacement.

Section 2.03        Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Depositor; Mortgage Loan Sellers’ Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans for Defects in Mortgage Files and Breaches of Representations and Warranties. (a) The Depositor hereby represents and warrants that:

(i)                               The Depositor is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and the Depositor has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all the transactions contemplated hereby, including, but not limited to, the power and authority to sell, assign and transfer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement;

(ii)                            Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by each other party hereto, this Agreement and all of the obligations of the Depositor hereunder are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);

(iii)                         The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder by the Depositor will not conflict with any provisions of any law or regulations to which the Depositor is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the certificate of formation or operating agreement of the Depositor or any indenture, agreement or instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Depositor, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Depositor’s assets or property, which would materially and adversely affect the ability of

  -133-  

 

the Depositor to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; the Depositor has obtained any consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Depositor of this Agreement;

(iv)                        There is no action, suit or proceeding pending or, to the Depositor’s knowledge, threatened against the Depositor in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of the Mortgage Loans or the ability of the Depositor to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(v)                            The Depositor is the lawful owner of the Mortgage Loans with the full right to transfer the Mortgage Loans to the Trust, and the Mortgage Loans have been validly transferred to the Trust.

(b)               After receipt of a Repurchase Request, the Enforcing Servicer shall request in writing that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, not later than ninety (90) days after (i) except in the case of the succeeding clause (ii), the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s receipt of such notice of such Repurchase Request or, if earlier, such Mortgage Loan Seller’s discovery of such Material Defect or (ii) in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, the earlier of (x) discovery by the related Mortgage Loan Seller or any party to this Agreement of such Material Defect and (y) receipt of notice of the Material Defect from any party to this Agreement (such ninety (90) day period, the “Initial Cure Period”), (A) cure such Material Defect in all material respects, at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s own expense, including reimbursement of any related reasonable additional expenses of the Trust reasonably incurred by any party to this Agreement, (B) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or REO Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) (excluding any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable), at the applicable Purchase Price and in conformity with the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement or (C) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to the Whole Loans, for which no substitution will be permitted) for such affected Mortgage Loan or REO Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) (excluding any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable) (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur on or after the second anniversary of the Closing Date) and pay the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith and in conformity with the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement; provided, however, that except with respect to a Material Defect resulting solely from the failure by the Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver to the Trustee or Custodian the actual policy of lender’s title insurance required pursuant to clause (viii) of the definition of Mortgage File by a date not later than eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date, if such Material Defect is capable of being cured but is not cured within the Initial Cure Period, and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within the Initial Cure Period, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall have an additional ninety (90) days commencing immediately upon the expiration of the Initial Cure Period (such additional ninety (90) day period, the “Extended Cure Period”) to complete such cure (or, failing such cure, to repurchase the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) (excluding

  -134-  

 

any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable) or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to the Whole Loans, for which no substitution will be permitted)) and provided, further, that with respect to such Extended Cure Period the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall have delivered an officer’s certificate to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator (who shall promptly deliver a copy of such officer’s certificate to the 17g-5 Information Provider), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) the Directing Certificateholder, setting forth the reason such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the Initial Cure Period and what actions the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller anticipates that such Material Defect will be cured within the Extended Cure Period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is not cured after the Initial Cure Period and any such Extended Cure Period solely due to the failure of the related Mortgage Loan Seller to have received the recorded document, then such Mortgage Loan Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect until eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date for so long as such Mortgage Loan Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) and the Certificate Administrator no less than every ninety (90) days, beginning at the end of such Extended Cure Period, that such Material Defect is still in effect solely because of the failure of the applicable recording office to have recorded as filed or returned evidence of filing the document (or made such evidence available online) and that such Mortgage Loan Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such Material Defect (specifying the actions being taken). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Defect or Breach which causes any Mortgage Loan not to be a Qualified Mortgage shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interests of Certificateholders therein, and (subject to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s right to cure such Defect or Breach during the Initial Cure Period) such Mortgage Loan shall be repurchased or substituted for without regard to the Extended Cure Period described in the preceding sentence. If the affected Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased, the funds in the amount of the Purchase Price remitted by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) are to be remitted by wire transfer to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account. In the event the Special Servicer is required to enforce the Repurchase Request related to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan under this Section 2.03(b), within five (5) Business Days of request by the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Special Servicer a copy of the Servicing File with respect to any such Non-Specially Serviced Loan.

If a Mortgage Loan Seller, in connection with a Material Defect (or an allegation of a Material Defect) pertaining to a Mortgage Loan, makes a cash payment pursuant to an agreement or a settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust (and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan or a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, in either case, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) (each such payment, a “Loss of Value Payment”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such Loss of Value Payment shall be deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to be applied in accordance with Section 3.05(f) of this Agreement. The Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of

  -135-  

 

fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan and not previously paid by the Mortgage Loan Seller. If such Loss of Value Payment is made, the Loss of Value Payment shall serve as the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders and the Trustee on their behalf regarding any such Material Defect in lieu of any obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller to otherwise cure such Material Defect or repurchase or substitute for the affected Mortgage Loan based on such Material Defect under any circumstances. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust, provided that (i) prior to any such agreement or settlement nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Special Servicer from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and timing set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Section 2.03 (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for such Mortgage Loan), (ii) such Loss of Value Payment shall not be greater than the Purchase Price of the affected Mortgage Loan; and (iii) a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment.

With respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan, any “Defect” (or analogous term) under the related Non-Serviced PSA shall constitute a Material Defect under each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to the extent the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller repurchases the Non-Serviced Companion Loan from the trust created pursuant to such Non-Serviced PSA; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any Defect related solely to the promissory note for any related Non-Serviced Companion Loan.

If any Breach that constitutes a Material Defect pertains to a representation or warranty that the related Mortgage Loan documents or any particular Mortgage Loan document requires the related Mortgagor to bear the costs and expenses associated with any particular action or matter under such Mortgage Loan document(s), then the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall cure such Breach within the applicable cure period (as the same may be extended) by reimbursing the Trust (by wire transfer of immediately available funds) for (i) the reasonable amount of any such costs and expenses incurred by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust that are incurred as a result of such Breach and have not been reimbursed by the related Mortgagor and (ii) the amount of any fees payable by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer to the extent not previously paid by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan; provided however, that if the Breach relates to a Joint Mortgage Loan, each Mortgage Loan Seller shall be responsible for its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of all such costs and expenses unless such Breach relates solely to the Mortgage Note contributed by such Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, further, however, that in the event any such costs and expenses exceed $10,000, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the option to either repurchase or substitute for the related Mortgage Loan as provided above or pay such costs and expenses. Except as provided in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall remit the amount of such costs and expenses and upon its making such remittance, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have cured such Breach in all respects. To the extent that any fees or expenses that are the subject of a cure by the related Mortgage Loan Seller are subsequently obtained from the related Mortgagor, the portion of the cure payment made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller equal to such fees or expenses obtained from the related Mortgagor shall promptly be returned to the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

  -136-  

 

Periodic Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Periodic Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Periodic Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Periodic Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and are to be remitted by the Master Servicer (or by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer who shall remit such funds) to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller effecting the related repurchase or substitution promptly following receipt. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, a delay in either the discovery of a Material Defect or in providing notice of such Material Defect shall not relieve the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller of its obligation to cure, repurchase or substitute for (or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to) the related Mortgage Loan if it is otherwise required to do so under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and/or this Article II unless (i) the related Mortgage Loan Seller did not otherwise discover or have knowledge of such Material Defect, (ii) such delay is a result of the failure by a party to the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, or this Agreement, to provide prompt notice as required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, or this Agreement, after such party has actual knowledge of such Material Defect (knowledge shall not be deemed to exist by reason of the Custodial Exception Report), (iii) such Material Defect does not relate to the applicable Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, and (iv) such delay or failure to provide notice (as required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Agreement) prevented the Mortgage Loan Seller from curing such Material Defect and such Material Defect was otherwise curable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC Financing Statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

The parties acknowledge that certain Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements may provide for an Additional Repurchase Obligor that is required to perform the obligations of the related Mortgage Loan Seller described in this Section 2.03(b) or a guarantor of such obligations, in each case, to the extent set forth in the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, if there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties with respect to a Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase the Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Mortgage Loan documents (and such Mortgaged Property is, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the Mortgage Loan documents and the related Mortgage Loan Seller provides an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such release in lieu of repurchase would not cause an Adverse REMIC Event and (iii) each applicable Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

(c)               Subject to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s right to cure as contemplated above in this Section 2.03, and further subject to Section 2.01(b) and Section 2.01(c), any of the following shall cause a document in the Mortgage File to be deemed to have a Material Defect: (i) the absence from the Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage Note, unless the Mortgage File contains a signed lost note affidavit and indemnity with a copy of the Mortgage Note that appears to be regular on its face; (ii) the absence from the Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage that appears to be regular on its face, unless there is included in the Mortgage File either a copy of the Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon or a copy of the Mortgage and a certificate from the related Mortgage Loan Seller stating that the original signed Mortgage was sent for recordation (or certified by the applicable recorder’s office); (iii) the absence from the Mortgage File of the item called for by clause (viii) of the definition of “Mortgage File”; (iv) the absence from the Mortgage File of any intervening assignments required to create a complete chain of assignments to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, unless there is included in the Mortgage File either a copy of the assignment with evidence of recording thereon or a copy of the intervening assignment and a certificate from the related Mortgage Loan Seller stating that the original intervening assignments were sent for filing or recordation (or certified by the applicable recorder’s office), as applicable; (v) the absence from the Mortgage File of any required letter of credit (except as permitted under Section 2.01(b)); or (vi) with respect to any related leasehold Mortgage Loan, the absence from the related Mortgage File of a copy (or an original, if available) of the related Ground Lease; provided, however, that no Defect (except the Defects previously described in sub-clauses (ii) through (vi) of this Section 2.03(c)) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect the value of the related Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trustee or Certificateholders unless the document with respect to which the Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the mortgagee’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the related Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation; provided, further, that no Defect relating to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan previously described in sub-clauses (ii) through (vi) of this Section 2.03(c) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect the value of such Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trustee or Certificateholders unless the related Mortgage Loan Seller, after receipt of notice of such Defect, is unable to produce a copy of the document with respect to which the Defect exists within a reasonable period after receiving such notice or otherwise establish that the original or copy, as applicable, of such document has been delivered, in compliance with the terms of the related Non-Serviced PSA, to the custodian under the related Non-Serviced PSA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delivery of executed escrow instructions or a binding commitment to issue a lender’s title Insurance Policy, as provided in clause (viii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein, in lieu of the delivery of the actual policy of lender’s title insurance, shall not be considered a Material Defect with respect to any Mortgage File if such actual policy is delivered to the Custodian not later than eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a Mortgage Loan Seller has otherwise complied with its document delivery requirements under this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, in the event that the Custodian has acknowledged receipt pursuant to Section 2.02 above of a document that is part of the Mortgage File or a Mortgage Loan Seller can otherwise prove delivery of the document, and the Custodian subsequently loses a document, the fact that such document is lost may not be utilized as the basis

  -138-  

 

for a claim of a Material Defect against a Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to Section 5(a) of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and/or this Section 2.03 and the Custodian shall be liable for any such loss to the extent provided for in Section 8.01.

(d)               In connection with any repurchase of, or substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a Mortgage Loan contemplated by this Section 2.03, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, upon delivery to each of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer of a trust receipt executed by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File and other documents pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by each of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer (other than attorney-client communications that are privileged communications), and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File that was endorsed or assigned to the Trustee shall be endorsed or assigned, as the case may be, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or Additional Repurchase Obligor in the same manner as provided in Section 5 or Section 19, as applicable, of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and, if applicable, the definition of “Mortgage File” herein, so as to vest in such Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee the legal and beneficial ownership of such repurchased or substituted Mortgage Loan (including property acquired in respect thereof and proceeds of any Insurance Policy with respect thereto) and the related Mortgage Loan documents.

(e)               Section 5 of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements provides the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders (subject to the limitations on the rights of the Certificateholders under this Agreement), or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, with respect to any Material Defect; provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way limit the ability of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee to take any action against BCHI, FBRT or Société Générale, in each case, to the extent provided for pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 19 thereof.

(f)                The Enforcing Servicer shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), enforce the obligations of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, if any, shall be carried out in the best interest of the Certificateholders in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Any costs incurred by the Enforcing Servicer with respect to the enforcement of the obligations of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall, to the extent not recovered from the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or the Requesting Certificateholder, be deemed to be Servicing Advances to the extent not otherwise provided for herein. The Special Servicer shall be reimbursed for the reasonable costs of such enforcement: first, from a specific recovery, if any, of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller; second, pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vii) herein out of the related Purchase Price, to the extent that such expenses are a specific component thereof; and third, if at the conclusion of such enforcement action it is determined that the amounts described in clauses first and second are insufficient, then pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(viii) herein out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Collection Account. Any costs, expenses or attorneys’

  -139-  

 

fees related to a repurchase of a Companion Loan shall be paid pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement or pursuant to the documents related to an Other Securitization, if applicable.

(g)               If a Mortgage Loan Seller incurs any expense in connection with the curing of a Breach that constitutes a Material Defect, which also constitutes a default under the related Mortgage Loan and is reimbursable thereunder, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall have a right, and shall be subrogated to the rights of the Trustee and the Trust under the Mortgage Loan to recover the amount of such expenses from the related Mortgagor; provided, however, that such Mortgage Loan Seller’s rights pursuant to this Section 2.03(g) shall be junior, subject and subordinate to the rights of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to recover amounts owed by the related Mortgagor under the terms of such Mortgage Loan including, without limitation, the rights to recover unreimbursed Advances, accrued and unpaid interest on Advances at the Reimbursement Rate, fees owed to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, and unpaid or unreimbursed expenses of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer allocable to such Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, shall use reasonable efforts to recover such expenses for such Mortgage Loan Seller to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, but taking into account the subordinate nature of the reimbursement to the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, however, that the Master Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, determines in the exercise of its sole discretion consistent with the Servicing Standard that such actions by it will not impair the Master Servicer’s and/or the Special Servicer’s collection or recovery of principal, interest and other sums due with respect to the related Mortgage Loan that would otherwise be payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Certificateholders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, further, that the Master Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, may waive the collection of amounts due on behalf of such Mortgage Loan Seller in its sole discretion in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

(h)               If (i) any Crossed Underlying Loan is required to be repurchased or substituted for in the manner described in this Section 2.03 and (ii) the applicable Material Defect does not constitute a Material Defect as to any other Crossed Underlying Loan in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Material Defect shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to any other Crossed Underlying Loan in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group for purposes of this paragraph, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall repurchase or substitute for such other Crossed Underlying Loan(s) in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group as provided in Section 2.03(b) unless such other Crossed Underlying Loans satisfy the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria. In the event that the remaining Crossed Underlying Loans in such Crossed Mortgage Loan Group satisfy the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller may elect either to repurchase or substitute for only the affected Crossed Underlying Loan(s) as to which the related Material Defect exists or to repurchase or substitute for all of the Crossed Underlying Loans in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing the Crossed Underlying Loans shall be allocated among the related Crossed Underlying Loans in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. Except as provided in this Section 2.03(h)

  -140-  

 

and Section 2.03(i), all other terms of the related Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect without any modification thereof.

(i)                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the related Mortgage provides for the partial release of one or more of the Crossed Underlying Loans, the related Mortgage Loan Seller may repurchase only that Crossed Underlying Loan required to be repurchased pursuant to this Section 2.03, pursuant to the partial release provisions of the related Mortgage; provided, however, that (i) the remaining related Crossed Underlying Loan(s) fully comply with the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage, this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria, (ii) in connection with such partial release, the related Mortgage Loan Seller obtains an Opinion of Counsel (at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense) to the effect that the contemplated action will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event and (iii) in connection with such partial release, the related Mortgage Loan Seller delivers or causes to be delivered to the Custodian original modifications to the Mortgage prepared and executed in connection with such partial release.

(j)                 With respect to any Crossed Underlying Loan, to the extent that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is required to repurchase or substitute for such Crossed Underlying Loan in the manner prescribed in Section 2.03(h) or Section 2.03(i) while the Trustee continues to hold any other Crossed Underlying Loans in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Master Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, as assignee of the Depositor, will, as set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each will be permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective related Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loans still held by the Trustee, so long as such exercise does not materially impair the ability of the other party to exercise its remedies against its Primary Collateral. If the exercise of the remedies by one party would materially impair the ability of the other party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Crossed Underlying Loans held by such party, then both parties have agreed in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to forbear from exercising such remedies until the Mortgage Loan documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loan can be modified in a manner that complies with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to remove the threat of material impairment as a result of the exercise of remedies.

(k)               (i) In the event an Initial Requesting Certificateholder delivers a written request to a party to this Agreement that a Mortgage Loan be repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller alleging the existence of a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “Certificateholder Repurchase Request”), such party shall promptly forward that Certificateholder Repurchase Request to the Enforcing Servicer and the Enforcing Servicer shall then promptly forward the Certificateholder Repurchase Request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller and each other party to this Agreement. Subject to Section 2.03(l), the Enforcing Servicer shall be the Enforcing Party with respect to a Certificateholder Repurchase Request.

(ii)                            In the event that the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor (solely in its capacity as operating advisor) or the Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific

  -141-  

 

Directing Certificateholder that is a Mortgage Loan Seller or an Affiliate thereof) identifies a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan (without implying any duty of such person to make, or to attempt to make, such a discovery), that party shall deliver prompt written notice of such Material Defect to each other party to this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Seller identifying the applicable Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “PSA Party Repurchase Request” and each of a Certificateholder Repurchase Request or a PSA Party Repurchase Request, the “Repurchase Request”) and the Enforcing Servicer shall promptly send the PSA Party Repurchase Request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. The Enforcing Servicer shall act as the Enforcing Party and enforce the rights of the Trust against the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to a PSA Party Repurchase Request.

(iii)                         In the event the Repurchase Request is not Resolved within one hundred eighty (180) days after the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller receives the Repurchase Request (a “Resolution Failure”), then the provisions described in Section 2.03(l) below shall apply. Receipt of the Repurchase Request shall be deemed to occur two (2) Business Days after the Repurchase Request is sent to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. A Resolved Repurchase Request shall not preclude the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and timing otherwise set forth in this Agreement, in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or as provided by law.

(l)                 (i) After a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a Repurchase Request regarding a Mortgage Loan (whether the Repurchase Request was initiated by an Initial Requesting Certificateholder, a party to this Agreement or the Directing Certificateholder), the Enforcing Servicer shall send a notice (a “Proposed Course of Action Notice”) to the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, at the address specified in the Initial Requesting Certificateholder’s Repurchase Request, and to the Certificate Administrator (which shall be delivered via electronic mail to trustadministrationgroup@computershare.com), indicating the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request (a “Proposed Course of Action”). The Certificate Administrator will be required to make the Proposed Course of Action Notice available to all other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. The Proposed Course of Action Notice shall include (a) a request to Certificateholders to indicate to the Enforcing Servicer their agreement with or dissent from such Proposed Course of Action, by clearly marking “agree” or “disagree” to the Proposed Course of Action on such notice within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice and a disclaimer that responses received after such 30-day period will not be taken into consideration, (b) a statement that if any Certificateholder disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action, the Enforcing Servicer shall be compelled to follow (either as the Enforcing Party or as the Enforcing Servicer in circumstances where a Certificateholder is acting as the Enforcing Party) the course of action agreed to and/or proposed by the majority of the responding Certificateholders that involves referring the matter to mediation or arbitration, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures set forth below relating to the delivery of Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notices and Final Dispute Resolution Election Notices (c) a statement that the responding Certificateholders will be required to certify their holdings in connection with such response, (d) a statement that only responses clearly marked “agree” or “disagree” with such Proposed Course of Action will be taken into consideration and (e) instructions for the responding Certificateholders

  -142-  

 

to send their responses to the Enforcing Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. The Certificate Administrator shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days after the expiration of the 30-day response period, tabulate the responses received from the Certificateholders and share the results with the Enforcing Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall only count responses timely received and clearly indicating agreement or dissent with the related Proposed Course of Action and additional verbiage or qualifying language shall not be taken into consideration for purposes of determining whether the related Certificateholder agrees or disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action. The Certificate Administrator shall be under no obligation to answer any questions from the Certificateholders regarding such Proposed Course of Action. For the avoidance of doubt, the Certificate Administrator’s obligations in connection with this Section 2.03(l) shall be limited solely to tabulating the Certificateholders’ responses of “agree” or “disagree” to the Proposed Course of Action, and such obligation shall not be construed to impose any enforcement obligation on the Certificate Administrator. The Enforcing Servicer may conclusively rely (without investigation) on the Certificate Administrator’s tabulation of the responses of the responding Certificateholders. If (a) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request does not involve pursuing further action to exercise rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request and the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner wishes to exercise its right to refer the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration, or (b) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action is to pursue further action to exercise rights against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request but the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner does not agree with the dispute resolution method selected by the Enforcing Servicer, then the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or such other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner may deliver to the Enforcing Servicer a written notice (a “Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice”) within thirty (30) days from the date the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (the “Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date”) indicating its intent to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration. In the event (a) the Enforcing Servicer’s initial Proposed Course of Action indicated a recommendation to undertake mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration, (b) any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner entitled to do so delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice, and (c) the Enforcing Servicer has also received responses from other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners supporting the Enforcing Servicer’s initial Proposed Course of Action indicating a recommendation to undertake mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration, such additional responses from other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners will also be considered Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notices supporting such Proposed Course of Action for purposes of determining the course of action approved by the majority of responding Certificateholders.

(ii)                            If neither the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, nor any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner entitled to do so delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice prior to the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date, no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner otherwise entitled to do so shall have the right to refer the Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration, and the Enforcing Servicer as the Enforcing Party shall be the sole party entitled to determine a course of action, including, but not limited to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller,

  -143-  

 

subject to any consent or consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to Section 6.08.

(iii)                         Promptly and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice from (a) the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or (b) any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner (each of clauses (a) and (b), a “Requesting Certificateholder”), the Enforcing Servicer shall consult with each Requesting Certificateholder regarding such Requesting Certificateholder’s intention to elect either mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration as the dispute resolution method with respect to the Repurchase Request (the “Dispute Resolution Consultation”) so that such Requesting Certificateholder may consider the views of the Enforcing Servicer as to the claims underlying the Repurchase Request and possible dispute resolution methods, such discussions to occur and be completed no later than ten (10) Business Days following the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date. The Enforcing Servicer shall be entitled to establish procedures the Enforcing Servicer deems in good faith to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard relating to the timing and extent of such consultations. No later than five (5) Business Days after completion of the Dispute Resolution Consultation, a Requesting Certificateholder may provide a final notice to the Enforcing Servicer indicating its decision to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation or arbitration (“Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice”).

(iv)                        If, following the Dispute Resolution Consultation, no Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then the Enforcing Servicer will continue to act as the Enforcing Party and will remain obligated under this Agreement to determine a course of action including, but not limited to, enforcing the rights of the Trust with respect to the Repurchase Request and no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration.

(v)                           If a Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then such Requesting Certificateholder shall become the Enforcing Party and must promptly submit the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration. If there is more than one Requesting Certificateholder that timely deliver a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice, then such Requesting Certificateholders shall collectively become the Enforcing Party, and the holder or holders of a majority of the Voting Rights among such Requesting Certificateholders shall be entitled to make all decisions relating to such mediation or arbitration (including whether to refer the matter to mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration). If, however, no Requesting Certificateholder commences arbitration or mediation pursuant to the terms of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of its Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then (i) the rights of a Requesting Certificateholder to act as the Enforcing Party shall terminate and no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration, (ii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice indicated that the Enforcing Servicer shall take no further action with respect to the Repurchase Request, then the related Material Defect shall be deemed waived for all purposes under this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement;

  -144-  

 

provided, however, that such Material Defect shall not be deemed waived with respect to a Requesting Certificateholder, any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner or the Enforcing Servicer to the extent there is a material change in the facts and circumstances known to such party at the time when the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and (iii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice had indicated a course of action other than the course of action under clause (ii), then the Enforcing Servicer shall again become the Enforcing Party and, as such, shall be the sole party entitled to enforce the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

(vi)                        Notwithstanding the foregoing, the dispute resolution provisions described above under this Section 2.03(l) shall not apply, and the Enforcing Servicer shall remain the Enforcing Party, if the Enforcing Servicer has commenced litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request, or determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that it is in the best interest of Certificateholders to commence litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request to avoid the running of any applicable statute of limitations.

(vii)                     In the event a Requesting Certificateholder becomes the Enforcing Party, the Enforcing Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, shall remain a party to any proceedings against the related Mortgage Loan Seller as further described herein.

(viii)                  For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the subject Mortgage Loan or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Special Servicer or a Controlling Class Certificateholder) shall be entitled to be an Initial Requesting Certificateholder or a Requesting Certificateholder or to act as a Certificateholder for purposes of delivering any Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice or Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice or otherwise to vote Certificates owned by it or such affiliate(s) with respect to a course of action proposed or undertaken pursuant to the procedures described herein.

(ix)                          Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.03(l), the Requesting Certificateholder is entitled to elect either mediation or arbitration in its sole discretion; however, the Requesting Certificateholder shall not be entitled to then utilize the alternative method in the event that the initial method is unsuccessful.

(m)             If the Enforcing Party selects mediation (including nonbinding arbitration), the following provisions shall apply:

(i)                               The mediation shall be administered by a nationally recognized mediation services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller within thirty (30) days of written notice of the Enforcing Party’s selection of mediation (such provider, the “Mediation Services Provider”) in accordance with published mediation procedures (the “Mediation Rules”) promulgated by the Mediation Services Provider.

(ii)                             The mediator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the state of New York and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in commercial litigation, and if possible, commercial real estate finance or commercial mortgage-backed securitization matters and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Mediation Services Provider. Upon being supplied a list of at least ten potential qualified

  -145-  

 

mediators by the Mediation Services Provider each party will have the right to exercise two peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential mediators in order of preference. The Mediation Services Provider shall select the mediator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii)                         Prior to accepting an appointment, the mediator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the hearings within the prescribed time schedule.

(iv)                        The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct an organizational conference to begin the mediation within ten (10) Business Days of the selection of the mediator and to conclude the mediation within sixty (60) days thereafter.

(v)                           The expenses of any mediation shall be allocated among the parties to the mediation including, if applicable, between the Enforcing Party and the Enforcing Servicer, as mutually agreed by the parties as part of the mediation.

(vi)                        Out of pocket costs and expenses of the Special Servicer for mediation or arbitration, to the extent not agreed to be paid by the Enforcing Party or another party (in the case of mediation) or allocated to the Enforcing Party or another party (in the case of arbitration) shall be reimbursable as a Servicing Advance.

(n)               If the Enforcing Party selects third-party arbitration, the following provisions will apply:

(i)                                The arbitration shall be administered by a nationally recognized arbitration services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller within thirty (30) days of written notice of the Enforcing Party’s selection of arbitration (such provider, the “Arbitration Services Provider”) in accordance with published arbitration procedures (the “Arbitration Rules”) promulgated by the Arbitration Services Provider.

(ii)                            The arbitrator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in commercial litigation, and if possible, commercial real estate finance or commercial mortgage-backed securitization matters and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Arbitration Services Provider. Upon being supplied a list of at least ten potential arbitrators by the Arbitration Services Provider each party will have the right to exercise two peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential arbitrators in order of preference. The Arbitration Services Provider will select the arbitrator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii)                         Prior to accepting an appointment, the arbitrator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the hearings within the prescribed time schedule.

  -146-  

 

(iv)                       After consulting with the parties at an organizational conference held not later than ten (10) Business Days after its appointment, the arbitrator shall devise procedures and deadlines for the arbitration, to the extent not already agreed to by the parties, with the goal of expediting the proceeding and completing the arbitration within one hundred twenty (120) days. The arbitrator shall have the authority to schedule, hear, and determine any and all motions, including dispositive and discovery motions, in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for non-jury matters (the “Rules”) (including summary judgment and other prehearing and post hearing motions), and shall do so by reasoned decision on the motion of any party to the arbitration.

(v)                           Notwithstanding whatever other discovery may be available under the Rules, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, each party to the arbitration shall be presumptively limited to the following discovery in the arbitration: (A) the parties shall reasonably and in good faith voluntarily produce to all other parties all documents upon which they intend to rely and all documents they reasonably and in good faith believe to be relevant to the claims or defenses asserted by any of the parties, (B) party witness depositions (excluding Rule 30b-6 witnesses), and (C) expert witness depositions, provided that the arbitrator shall have the ability to grant the parties, or either of them, additional discovery to the extent that the arbitrator determines good cause is shown that such additional discovery is reasonable and necessary.

(vi)                        The arbitrator shall make its final determination no later than thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the hearings and submission of any post-hearing submissions. The arbitrator shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, and may not modify or change those agreements in any way or award remedies not consistent with those agreements. The arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive damages or consequential damages in any arbitration conducted by them. Interest on any monetary award shall bear interest from the date of the Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice at the Prime Rate. In its final determination, the arbitrator shall determine and award the costs of the arbitration (including the fees of the arbitrator, cost of any record or transcript of the arbitration, and administrative fees) and shall award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the parties to the arbitration as determined by the arbitrator in its reasonable discretion. The determination of the arbitrator shall be by a reasoned decision in writing and counterpart copies shall be promptly delivered to the parties. The final determination of the arbitrator shall be final and non-appealable, except for actions to confirm or vacate the determination permitted under federal or state law, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(vii)                     By selecting arbitration, the selecting party is giving up the right to sue in court, including the right to a trial by jury.

(viii)                  No person may bring a putative or certified class action to arbitration.

(o)               The following provisions shall apply to both mediation and third-party arbitration:

  -147-  

 

(ii)                            If the dispute involves a matter that cannot effectively be remedied by the payment of damages, or if there be any dispute relating to arbitration or the arbitrators that cannot be resolved promptly by the arbitrators or the Arbitration Services Provider, then any party in such instance may during the pendency of the arbitration proceedings seek temporary equitable remedies, pending the final decision of the arbitration panel, solely by application in the Southern District of New York if such court shall have subject matter jurisdiction, or if the Southern District of New York has no jurisdiction, then the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York. The arbitration proceedings shall not be stayed unless so ordered by the court.

(iii)                          The details and/or existence of any Repurchase Request, any informal meetings, mediations or arbitration proceedings conducted under this Section 2.03, including all offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the parties’ attempt to informally resolve any Repurchase Request, shall be confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any mediation, arbitration or litigation, or other proceeding (including any proceeding under this Section 2.03). Such information shall be kept strictly confidential and shall not be disclosed or shared with any third party (other than a party’s attorneys, experts, accountants and other agents and representatives, as reasonably required in connection with any resolution procedure under this Section 2.03), except as otherwise required by law, regulatory requirement or court order. If any party to a resolution procedure receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party (other than a governmental regulatory body) for such confidential information, the recipient shall promptly notify the other party to the resolution procedure and shall provide the other party with a reasonable opportunity to object to the production of its confidential information.

(iv)                         In the event a Requesting Certificateholder is the Enforcing Party, the agreement with the arbitrator or mediator, as the case may be, shall be required to contain an acknowledgment that the Trust, or the Enforcing Servicer on its behalf, shall be a party to any arbitration or mediation proceedings solely for the purpose of being the beneficiary of any award in favor of the Enforcing Party; provided that the degree and extent to which the Enforcing Servicer actively prepares for and participates in such proceeding shall be determined by such Enforcing Servicer in consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (provided that a Consultation Termination Event has not occurred and is not continuing) and in accordance with the Servicing Standard. All amounts recovered by the Enforcing Party shall be paid to the Trust, or the Enforcing Servicer on its behalf, and deposited in the Collection Account. The agreement with the arbitrator or mediator, as the case may be, shall provide that in the event a Requesting Certificateholder is allocated any related costs and expenses pursuant to the terms of the arbitrator’s decision or the agreement reached in mediation, neither the Trust nor the Enforcing Servicer acting on its behalf shall be responsible for any such costs and expenses allocated to the Requesting Certificateholder.

(v)                           In the event a Requesting Certificateholder is the Enforcing Party, the Requesting Certificateholder is required to pay any expenses allocated to the Enforcing Party in the arbitration proceedings or any expenses that the Enforcing Party agrees to bear in the mediation proceedings.

(vi)                        The Trust (or the Trustee or the Enforcing Servicer, acting on its behalf), the Depositor or any Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted to redact any personally identifiable customer information included in any information provided for purposes of any mediation or arbitration. Each party to the proceedings shall be required to agree to keep confidential the details related to the Repurchase Request and the dispute resolution identified in connection with such procedures; provided, however, that (A) the Certificateholders shall be permitted to communicate prior to the commencement of any such proceedings to the extent provided in Section 5.06 and (B) the Enforcing Servicer shall be permitted to include such information in any 15Ga-1 Notice as it is required pursuant to Section 2.02(g).

(vii)                      For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the exercise of any right of a Requesting Certificateholder to refer a Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration or participation in such mediation or arbitration affect in any manner the ability of the Enforcing Servicer to perform its obligations with respect to a Mortgage Loan (including without limitation, a liquidation, foreclosure, negotiation of a loan modification or workout, acceptance of a discounted pay-off or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or bankruptcy or other litigation) or the exercise of any rights of a Directing Certificateholder.

(viii)                   In the event that the method of dispute resolution selected is unsuccessful, the Requesting Certificateholder may not elect to then utilize the alternative method.

(ix)                           Any out-of-pocket expenses required to be borne by or allocated to the Enforcing Servicer in a mediation or arbitration or related responsibilities under this Agreement shall be reimbursable as Trust Fund expenses.

(p)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers to repurchase or substitute with respect to a Material Defect with respect to the related Mortgage Loan shall be limited to a repurchase or substitution with respect to the Mortgage Note it sold to the Depositor in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. With respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, any cure by either of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers with respect to the Mortgage Note sold by it to the Depositor in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that also cures the Material Defect with respect to the entire related Joint Mortgage Loan shall satisfy the cure obligations of both Mortgage Loan Sellers with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan.

The Trustee hereby acknowledges the assignment to it of the Mortgage Loans and, subject to Section 2.01 and Section 2.02, the delivery to the Custodian of the Mortgage Files and a fully executed original counterpart of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements, together with the assignment to it of all of the other assets included in the Lower-Tier REMIC.

Section 3.01        Administration of the Mortgage Loans, the Serviced Companion Loans, and REO Properties. (a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall diligently service and administer the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), any Serviced Companion Loans and the applicable REO Properties (other than any REO Property related to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) it is obligated (as provided below) to service in accordance with applicable law, this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan documents and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of the Trust and in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, in the case of the Serviced Companion Loans, the Companion Holders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), as a collective whole, taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of such Companion Loans (as determined by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, in its reasonable judgment), in accordance with applicable law, the terms of this Agreement (and, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan or any Mortgage Loan with related mezzanine debt, the related Intercreditor Agreement) and the terms of the respective Mortgage Loans and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan, taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of the Companion Loan. With respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, in the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, the related Intercreditor Agreement shall control; provided that in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, take any action or omit to take any action in accordance with the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement that would cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to violate the Servicing Standard or the REMIC Provisions. To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall service the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and the related Serviced Companion Loans in accordance with the higher of the following standards of care: (1) in the same manner in which, and with the same care, skill, prudence and diligence with which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, services and administers similar mortgage loans for other third party portfolios and (2) the same care, skill, prudence and diligence with which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, services and administers similar mortgage loans owned by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, with a view to the (A) the timely recovery of all payments of principal and interest under the Mortgage Loans or Serviced Whole Loans or (B) in the case of a Specially Serviced Loan or an REO Property, maximization of recovery of principal and interest on a net present value basis on such Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans, and the best interests of the Trust

  -150-  

 

and the Certificateholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders constituted a single lender) (and in the case of any Whole Loan, the best interests of the Trust, the Certificateholders and any related Companion Holder (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and the holder or holders of the related Companion Loan constituted a single lender), taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature, as applicable, of the related Companion Loan), as determined by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, in its reasonable judgment, in either case giving due consideration to the customary and usual standards of practice of prudent institutional commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community mortgage loan servicers, but without regard to any conflict of interest arising from: (i) any relationship that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may have with any Mortgagor, any Mortgage Loan Seller, any other parties to this Agreement, any Sponsor, any originator of a Mortgage Loan or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing; (ii) the ownership of any Certificate, Companion Loan, mezzanine loan, or subordinate debt relating to a Mortgage Loan by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable; (iii) the obligation, if any, of the Master Servicer to make Advances; (iv) the right of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, or any of its Affiliates to receive compensation for its services and reimbursement for its costs hereunder or with respect to any particular transaction; (v) the ownership, servicing or management for others of (a) a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and a Non-Serviced Companion Loan or (b) any other mortgage loans, subordinate debt, mezzanine loans or properties not covered by this Agreement or held by the Trust by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, or any of its Affiliates; (vi) any debt that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, or any of its Affiliates, has extended to any Mortgagor or an Affiliate of any Mortgagor (including, without limitation, any mezzanine financing); (vii) any option to purchase any Mortgage Loan or the related Companion Loan the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, or any of its Affiliates, may have; and (viii) any obligation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, or any of their respective Affiliates, to repurchase, substitute for or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to a Mortgage Loan as a Mortgage Loan Seller (if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or any of their respective Affiliates is a Mortgage Loan Seller) (the foregoing, collectively referred to as the “Servicing Standard”).

The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall act in accordance with the Servicing Standard with respect to any action required to be taken regarding the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans pursuant to their obligations under this Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, subject to Section 3.19, the Special Servicer shall be obligated to service and administer (i) any Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any related Serviced Companion Loans as to which a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred and is continuing (each, a “Specially Serviced Loan”) or as otherwise provided herein with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans in connection with any Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision and (ii) any REO Properties (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgaged Properties); provided that the Master Servicer shall continue to receive payments and make all calculations, and prepare, or cause to be prepared, all reports, required hereunder with respect to the Specially Serviced Loans, except for the reports specified herein as prepared by the Special Servicer, as if no Servicing Transfer Event had occurred and with respect to the REO Properties (and the related REO Loans) as if no REO Acquisition had occurred, and to render such services with respect to such Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for

  -151-  

 

herein; provided, further, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be liable for failure to comply with such duties insofar as such failure results from a failure of the Special Servicer to provide sufficient information to the Master Servicer to comply with such duties or failure by the Special Servicer to otherwise comply with its obligations hereunder. The Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Master Servicer, shall not have any responsibility for the performance by the Special Servicer, in its capacity as the Special Servicer, of its duties under this Agreement. The Special Servicer, in its capacity as the Special Servicer, shall not have any responsibility for the performance by the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Master Servicer, of its duties under this Agreement. Each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan that becomes a Specially Serviced Loan shall continue as such until satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 3.19(a). Without limiting the foregoing, (i) subject to Section 3.19 and (ii) except for the processing of any Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision by the Special Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be obligated to service and administer any Non-Specially Serviced Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan. The Special Servicer shall make the property inspections, use its reasonable efforts to collect the financial statements, budgets, operating statements and rent rolls and forward to the Master Servicer the reports in respect of the related Mortgaged Properties with respect to Specially Serviced Loans in accordance with Section 3.12. After notification to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer may contact the Mortgagor of any Non-Specially Serviced Loan if efforts by the Master Servicer to collect required financial information have been unsuccessful or any other issues remain unresolved. Such contact shall be coordinated through and with the cooperation of the Master Servicer. No provision herein contained shall be construed as an express or implied guarantee by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of the collectability or recoverability of payments on the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loan or be construed to impair or adversely affect any rights or benefits provided by this Agreement to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (including with respect to Servicing Fees, Special Servicing Fees or the right to be reimbursed for Advances and interest accrued thereon). Any provision in this Agreement for any Advance by the Master Servicer or the Trustee is intended solely to provide liquidity for the benefit of the Certificateholders and not as credit support or otherwise to impose on any such Person the risk of loss with respect to one or more of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans. No provision hereof shall be construed to impose liability on the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer for the reason that any recovery to the Certificateholders in respect of a Mortgage Loan at any time after a determination of present value recovery is less than the amount reflected in such determination.

(b)               Subject only to the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 6.08) and of the respective Mortgage Loans, any related Serviced Companion Loans and any related Intercreditor Agreement, if applicable, and applicable law, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or, subject to Section 3.20, through one or more Sub-Servicers, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration for which it is responsible which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, in its own name (or in the name of the Trustee and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder), is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders (and, with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder) and the Trustee or any of them, with respect to each Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion

Loan (and, if applicable, each REO Property) it is obligated to service under this Agreement: (i) any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by the related Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, and shall, from time to time, execute and/or deliver such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments as necessary to maintain the lien created by the related Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral; (ii) subject to Section 3.08, Section 3.18 and Section 6.08, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to, under or with respect to any documents contained in the related Mortgage File; (iii) any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, pledge agreements and other documents in connection with a defeasance, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments; and (iv) any or all complaints or other pleadings to initiate and/or to terminate any action, suit or proceeding on behalf of the Trust (in their representative capacities (except as set forth below in this paragraph). The Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) shall provide to the Mortgagor related to such Mortgage Loans that it is servicing any reports required to be provided to them pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents. Subject to Section 3.10, the Trustee shall (i) upon request, furnish to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer original powers of attorney in the form of Exhibit R-1 or Exhibit R-2 attached hereto, as applicable (or such other form as mutually agreed to by the Trustee and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) and (ii) upon request, furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be held responsible or liable for any acts of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, or for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not, without the Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, representative capacity (unless prohibited by any requirement of the applicable jurisdiction in which any such action, suit or proceeding is brought and if so prohibited, in the manner required by such jurisdiction (provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall then provide five (5) Business Days’ written notice to the Trustee of the initiation of such action, suit or proceeding (or such shorter time period as is reasonably required in the judgment of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, made in accordance with the Servicing Standard) prior to filing such action, suit or proceeding), and shall not be required to obtain the Trustee’s consent or indicate the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, representative capacity)) or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and that actually causes, the Trustee to be required to be registered to do business in any state.

(c)               To the extent the Master Servicer is permitted pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) to exercise its discretion with respect to any action that requires Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating

  -153-  

 

agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall require the costs of such Rating Agency Confirmation to be borne by the related Mortgagor. To the extent the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) require the Mortgagor to bear the costs of any Rating Agency Confirmation or confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall not waive the requirement that such costs and expenses be borne by the related Mortgagor. To the extent that the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) are silent as to who bears the costs of any Rating Agency Confirmation or confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the Mortgagor bear such costs and expenses. The Master Servicer shall not be responsible for the payment of such costs and expenses out of pocket other than as a Servicing Advance.

(d)               The relationship of each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the Trustee under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent.

(e)               The Master Servicer shall, to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents or any related Companion Loan documents, and consistent with the Servicing Standard, permit Escrow Payments to be invested only in Permitted Investments.

(f)                Within sixty (60) days (or such shorter time period as is required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents) after the later of (i) the receipt thereof by the Master Servicer and (ii) the Closing Date, (x) the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall notify each provider of a letter of credit for each Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) identified as having a letter of credit on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, that the Master Servicer (in care of the Trustee, as titled in Section 2.01(b)) for the benefit of the Certificateholders and any related Companion Holders shall be the beneficiary under each such letter of credit and (y) the Master Servicer shall notify each lessor under a Ground Lease for each Mortgage Loan identified as subject to a leasehold interest on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, that the Trust is the leasehold mortgagee, that any notices of default under such Ground Lease and required to be delivered to the leasehold mortgagee pursuant to the terms of such Ground Lease shall be delivered to the Master Servicer (who shall forward such notice to the Special Servicer), and that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall service the related Mortgage Loan for the benefit of the Certificateholders. If a letter of credit is required to be drawn upon earlier than the date the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has notified the provider of such letter of credit pursuant to clause (x) of the immediately preceding sentence, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the

  -154-  

 

Special Servicer in connection with making a draw under such letter of credit. If the Mortgage Loan documents do not require the related Mortgagor to pay any costs and expenses relating to any modifications to or assignment of the related letter of credit, then the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay such costs and expenses as and to the extent required under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. If the Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to pay any costs and expenses relating to any modifications to the related letter of credit, and such Mortgagor fails to pay such costs and expenses after the Master Servicer has exercised reasonable efforts to collect such costs and expenses from such Mortgagor, then the Master Servicer shall give the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller notice of such failure and the amount of costs and expenses, and such Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay such costs and expenses as and to the extent required under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. The costs and expenses of any modifications to Ground Leases shall be paid by the related Mortgagor. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability for the failure of any Mortgage Loan Seller to perform its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

The Master Servicer acknowledges that any letter of credit held by it shall be held in its capacity as Master Servicer of the Trust. If the Master Servicer sells its rights to service the applicable Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall assign the applicable letter of credit (i) to the Trust at the expense of the Master Servicer (which the Master Servicer may recover from the Mortgagor if permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents) or (ii) with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan at the direction of the Special Servicer to such party as the Special Servicer may instruct at the expense of the Special Servicer. Subject to Section 6.04, the Master Servicer (solely with respect to clause (i) of the prior sentence) or the Special Servicer (solely with respect to clause (ii) of the prior sentence) shall indemnify the Trust for any loss caused by the ineffectiveness of such assignment as a result of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, negligence.

(g)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) make an Advance with respect to any Companion Loan to the extent the related Serviced Mortgage Loan has been paid in full or is no longer included in the Trust Fund.

(h)               Servicing and administration of each Serviced Companion Loan shall continue hereunder and in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement for so long as the corresponding Serviced Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property is part of the Trust Fund or for such longer period as is contemplated by the related Intercreditor Agreement and, to the extent consistent with the related Intercreditor Agreement, as any amounts payable by the related Companion Holder to or for the benefit of the Trust or any party hereto in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement remain due and owing.

(i)                 The Special Servicer agrees that upon the occurrence of a Servicing Transfer Event with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that is subject to or becomes subject to an Intercreditor Agreement in the future, it shall, subject to Section 3.19, use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce, on behalf of the Trust, subject to the Servicing Standard and to the extent the Special Servicer determines such action is in the best interests of the Trust, all rights conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to any such Intercreditor Agreement. The costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with such enforcement shall be

  -155-  

 

paid as a Trust Fund expense or, subject to the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, first, by any related AB Subordinate Companion Loan and then, pro rata and pari passu, by the Trust and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans, in accordance with the respective Stated Principal Balances of the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans.

(j)                 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, to the extent required under the related Intercreditor Agreement, the servicing and administration of a Serviced Whole Loan shall continue hereunder (but not with respect to making Advances) even if the related Serviced Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund, until such time as a separate servicing agreement is entered into in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement (it being acknowledged that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be obligated under a separate agreement to which it is not a party); provided that, other than pursuant to Section 6.04 (and, with respect to Section 6.04, solely with respect to claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (including, without limitation, costs and expenses of litigation and of enforcement of such indemnity, and of investigation, counsel fees, damages, judgments and amounts paid in settlement) incurred in connection with a legal claim or action resulting from an action or inaction taken or not taken while the related Serviced Mortgage Loan was part of the Trust Fund), no costs, expenses, losses or fees accruing with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan on and after the date the related Serviced Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund shall be payable out of the Trust Fund and the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Advance on or after the date such Serviced Mortgage Loan ceases to be part of the Trust Fund; provided, however, that if, in the case of any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan continues to be included in an Other Securitization, then for so long as a separate servicing agreement (pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement) has not been entered into, the Master Servicer shall inform the related Other Servicer of any need to make Servicing Advances with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan within three (3) Business Days of determining that such an Advance is necessary or being notified that such an Advance is necessary, or in the case of a Servicing Advance that needs to be made on an emergency or urgent basis, within one (1) Business Day. With respect to Servicing Advances made by any Other Servicer as contemplated in the second proviso to the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall, from collections on the related Serviced Whole Loan (but never out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties) received by the Master Servicer, reimburse the Other Servicer for such Servicing Advances in the same manner and on the same level of priority as if such Servicing Advances had been made by the Master Servicer hereunder.

(k)               The Master Servicer (or, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer) shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to enforce the rights of the Trustee (as holder of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and Non-Serviced PSA.

(l)                 The parties hereto acknowledge that each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and further acknowledge that, pursuant to the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement, (i) the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is to be serviced and administered by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer in accordance with the related

  -156-  

 

Non-Serviced PSA, and (ii) in the event that (A) the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund created by the related Non-Serviced PSA and (B) the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust Fund, then, as set forth in the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement, the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall continue to be serviced in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA, until such time as a new servicing agreement has been agreed to by the parties to the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the provisions of such agreement and confirmation has been obtained from the Rating Agencies that such new servicing agreement would not result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then current ratings of any Class of Certificates then-outstanding.

(m)             Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s authority with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan are limited by, and subject to, the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement. The Master Servicer (or, if a Serviced Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer) shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to obtain the benefits of the rights of the Trust (as holder of the related Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the related Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement shall control.

(n)               In connection with the securitization of any Serviced Companion Loan (in each case, only while it is a Serviced Companion Loan), upon the request of (and at the expense of) a related Serviced Companion Noteholder (or its designee), each of the Master Servicer (if such Serviced Companion Loan is not a Specially Serviced Loan), the Special Servicer (if such Serviced Companion Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan) and the Trustee, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Serviced Companion Noteholder in attempting to cause the related Mortgagor to provide information relating to such Whole Loan and the related notes, and that such holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, for inclusion in any disclosure document(s) relating to such Other Securitization.

(o)               For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee have any obligation or authority to (a) supervise any related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer, Non-Serviced Certificate Administrator or Non-Serviced Trustee or (b) make Servicing Advances with respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The obligation of the Master Servicer to provide information and collections and make P&I Advances to the Certificate Administrator for the benefit of the Certificateholders with respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is dependent on its receipt of the corresponding information and/or collections from the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Special Servicer.

(p)               Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit the ability of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to lend money to (to the extent not secured, in whole or in part, by any Mortgaged Property), accept deposits from or otherwise generally engage in any kind of business or dealings with any Mortgagor as though the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer was not a party to this Agreement or to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that this sentence shall not be construed to modify or supersede the Servicing Standard.

(q)               With respect to the Mortgage Loans identified on Exhibit B hereto as “Jordan Creek Town Center”, “Hilton Tapestry – Hotel Alba Tampa” and “Papago Gateway Center”, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall consent to any material amendment or modification of the related Mortgagor’s organizational documents without first obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation.

Section 3.02        Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments. (a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall make reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and the Serviced Companion Loans it is obligated to service hereunder, and shall follow such collection procedures as are consistent with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Servicing Standard); provided, that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take action to enforce the Trust’s right to apply excess cash flow to principal in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan documents. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may in its discretion waive any Penalty Charge in connection with any delinquent payment on a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan that it is obligated to service hereunder; provided, however that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall waive the Penalty Charges due to the other without waiving the Penalty Charges it is due on a pro rata basis.

(b)               (i) All amounts collected by or on behalf of the Trust in respect of a Mortgage Loan shall be applied to amounts due and owing under the Mortgage Loan documents (including for principal and accrued and unpaid interest) in accordance with the express provisions of the Mortgage Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement); provided, however, that absent express provisions in the related Mortgage Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) or to the extent otherwise agreed to by the related Mortgagor in connection with a workout of a Mortgage Loan, all amounts collected by or on behalf of the Trust in respect of a Mortgage Loan in the form of payments from the related Mortgagor, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds under the Mortgage Loan (in the case of each Serviced Whole Loan, exclusive of amounts payable to any applicable Companion Loan pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement) shall be applied in the following order of priority:

sixth, as a recovery of amounts to be currently allocated to the payment of, or, to the extent required under the Mortgage Loan documents, escrowed for the future payment of, real estate taxes, assessments and insurance premiums and similar items relating to such Mortgage Loan;

seventh, as a recovery of any other reserves to the extent then required to be held in escrow with respect to such Mortgage Loan;

provided that to the extent required under the REMIC Provisions, payments or proceeds received (or receivable by exercise of the lender’s rights under the related Mortgage Loan documents) with respect to any partial release of a Mortgaged Property (including in connection with a condemnation) at a time when the LTV Ratio of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, exceeds 125%, or would exceed 125% following any partial release (based solely on the value of real property and excluding personal property and going concern value, if any, unless otherwise permitted under the applicable REMIC Provisions as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee) shall be collected and allocated to reduce the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan in the manner required by the REMIC Provisions; provided, further, that if a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Non-Serviced Companion Loan comprising a Non-Serviced Whole Loan become REO Loans, the treatment of the foregoing amounts with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be subject to the terms of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and Non-Serviced PSA, in that order; provided, further, that with respect to each Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan, amounts collected with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan shall be allocated first pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and then, any amounts allocated to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan shall be subject to application as described above.

(ii)                                  Collections by or on behalf of the Trust in respect of any REO Property (exclusive of the amounts to be allocated to the payment of the costs of operating, managing, leasing, maintaining and disposing of such REO Property and, if applicable, in the case of each Serviced Whole Loan, exclusive of any amounts payable to the holder of the related Companion Loan(s), as applicable, pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement) shall be applied in the following order of priority:

fourth, to the extent not previously so allocated pursuant to clause first or second above, as a recovery of principal of such Mortgage Loan to the extent of its entire unpaid principal balance;

fifth, as a recovery of accrued and unpaid interest on such Mortgage Loan to the extent of the sum of (A) the cumulative amount of the reductions (if any) in the amount of related P&I Advances for such Mortgage Loan that have occurred in connection with related Appraisal Reduction Amounts or would have occurred in connection with related Appraisal Reduction Amounts but for such P&I Advance not having been made as a result of a determination by the Master Servicer that such P&I Advance would have been a Nonrecoverable Advance, and (B) any unpaid interest (exclusive of Default Interest) that accrued at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the portion of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan equal to any related Collateral Deficiency Amount in effect from time to time and as to which no P&I Advance was made (to the extent collections have not been allocated as recovery of accrued and unpaid interest pursuant to this clause fifth or clause fifth of the prior paragraph on earlier dates);

Consulting Fees are due and owing, first, allocated to consent fees and then, allocated to Operating Advisor Consulting Fees);

provided that if a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Non-Serviced Companion Loan comprising a Non-Serviced Whole Loan becomes an REO Loan, the treatment of the foregoing amounts with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be subject to the terms of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and Non-Serviced PSA, in that order; provided, further, that with respect to each Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan, amounts collected with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan shall be allocated first pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and then, any amounts allocated to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan shall be subject to application as described above.

(iii)                                Notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) above, such provisions shall not be deemed to affect the priority of distributions of payments pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. To the extent that such amounts are paid by a party other than a Mortgagor, such amounts shall be deemed to have been paid in respect of a purchase of all or part of the Mortgaged Property (in the case of Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds) and then paid by the Mortgagor under the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan(s), as applicable, or in accordance with Section 3.02(b)(ii) above.

(c)                                  To the extent consistent with the terms of the Mortgage Loans (and, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan(s), as applicable, and the related Intercreditor Agreement) and applicable law, the Master Servicer shall apply all Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds it receives on a day other than the Due Date to amounts due and owing under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan(s) as if such Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds were received on the Due Date immediately succeeding the month in which Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds were received and otherwise in accordance with Section 3.02(b)(ii), as applicable, above.

(d)                                 [RESERVED].

(e)                                  With respect to any Mortgage Loan or any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan for which the related Mortgagor was required to escrow funds or to post a letter of credit related to obtaining certain performance objectives, such as targeted debt service coverage levels or leasing criteria with respect to the Mortgaged Property as a whole or particular portions thereof, if the mortgagee has the discretion under the applicable Mortgage Loan documents to retain the cash or letter of credit (or the proceeds of such letters of credit) as additional collateral if the relevant conditions to release are not satisfied, then the Master Servicer may continue to hold such escrows or letters of credit (or the proceeds of such letters of credit) as additional collateral or use such funds to reduce the principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (to the extent the related Mortgage Loan documents allow such action), unless holding or application of such funds would otherwise be inconsistent with the Mortgage Loan documents or the Servicing Standard.

(f)                                    Promptly following the Closing Date, in the case of any Non-Serviced Whole Loan and, with respect to any Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, promptly following receipt of notice in connection with the related Servicing Shift Date, the Certificate Administrator shall

  -162-  

 

send written notice (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit T) to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer (with a copy to any other applicable party set forth on the schedule of addresses to Exhibit T) stating that, as of such date, the Trustee is the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and directing such Non-Serviced Master Servicer to remit to the Master Servicer all amounts payable to, and to forward, deliver or otherwise make available, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer all reports, statements, documents, communications and other information that are to be forwarded, delivered or otherwise made available to, the holder of such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan under the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and the related Non-Serviced PSA. The Master Servicer shall, within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds, deposit into the Collection Account all amounts received with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property or any related REO Property.

Section 3.03        Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts. (a)  The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”), into which all Escrow Payments received by it shall be deposited and retained, and shall administer such Servicing Accounts in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, the Companion Loan documents. Any Servicing Account related to a Serviced Whole Loan shall be held for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Noteholders collectively, but this shall not be construed to modify the respective interests of any noteholder therein as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. Amounts on deposit in Servicing Accounts may only be invested in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and Companion Loan documents, or in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.06. Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts to the extent permitted by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents. Withdrawals of amounts so deposited from a Servicing Account may be made only to: (i) effect payment of items for which Escrow Payments were collected and comparable items; (ii) reimburse the Trustee and then the Master Servicer, if applicable, for any Servicing Advances; (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account, if required by applicable law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan and as described below or, if not so required, to the Master Servicer; (v) after the occurrence of an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, apply amounts to the indebtedness under the applicable Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan; (vi) withdraw amounts deposited in error; (vii) pay Penalty Charges to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents; or (viii) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01. As part of its servicing duties, the Master Servicer shall pay or cause to be paid to the related Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing Accounts, to the extent required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall the Master Servicer be required to remit to any Mortgagor any amounts in excess of actual net investment income or funds in the related Servicing Account. If allowed by the related Mortgage Loan documents and applicable law, the Master Servicer may charge the related Mortgagor an administrative fee for maintenance of the Servicing Accounts.

(b)               The Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans (other than any REO Loan succeeding a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other related Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each related Serviced

  -163-  

 

Companion Loan, shall maintain accurate records with respect to each related Mortgaged Property reflecting the status of real estate taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may become a lien thereon and the status of insurance premiums and any ground rents payable in respect thereof. The Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans (other than any REO Loan succeeding a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other related Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each related Serviced Companion Loan, shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such items (including renewal premiums) and shall effect payment thereof from the REO Account or by the Master Servicer as Servicing Advances prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and, in any event, prior to the institution of foreclosure or similar proceedings with respect to the related Mortgaged Property for nonpayment of such items, employing for such purpose Escrow Payments (which shall be so applied by the Master Servicer at the written direction of the Special Servicer in the case of REO Loans) as allowed under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and Companion Loan(s). Other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall service and administer any reserve accounts (including monitoring, maintaining or changing the amounts of required escrows) in accordance with the terms of such Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Companion Loan(s), as applicable, and the Servicing Standard. To the extent that a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Companion Loan, as applicable, does not require a Mortgagor to escrow for the payment of real estate taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, ground rents (if applicable) and similar items, the Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans, and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other such Mortgage Loans or Companion Loan, as applicable, that it is responsible for servicing hereunder, shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to comply with its obligation to make payments in respect of such items at the time they first become due and, in any event, prior to the institution of foreclosure or similar proceedings with respect to the related Mortgaged Property for nonpayment of such items.

(c)               In accordance with the Servicing Standard and for each Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and each Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, the Master Servicer shall advance all such funds as are necessary for the purpose of effecting the payment of (i) real estate taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may become a lien thereon, (ii) ground rents (if applicable) and (iii) premiums on Insurance Policies, in each instance if and to the extent Escrow Payments collected from the related Mortgagor (or related REO Revenues, if applicable) are insufficient to pay such item when due and the related Mortgagor has failed to pay such item on a timely basis, and provided, however, that the particular Advance would not, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance and provided, further, however, that with respect to the payment of taxes and assessments, the Master Servicer shall not be required to make such Advance until the later of (i) five (5) Business Days after the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, has received confirmation that such item has not been paid and (ii) the date prior to the date after which any penalty or interest would accrue in respect of such taxes or assessments. The Special Servicer shall give the Master Servicer and the Trustee no less than five (5) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice before the date on which the Master Servicer is requested to make any Servicing Advance with respect to a given Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property; provided, however, that only two (2) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice shall be required in respect of Servicing Advances required to be made on an emergency or urgent basis;

  -164-  

 

provided, further, that the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request (other than for Servicing Advances required to be made on an urgent or emergency basis) more frequently than once per calendar month (although such request may relate to more than one Servicing Advance). The Master Servicer may pay the aggregate amount of such Servicing Advances listed on a monthly request to the Special Servicer, in which case the Special Servicer shall remit such Servicing Advances to the ultimate payees. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Servicing Advances; provided that in an urgent or emergency situation requiring the making of a Servicing Advance, the Special Servicer may make a Servicing Advance in its sole discretion. The Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer a request for reimbursement for such Servicing Advance, along with all information and documentation in the Special Servicer’s possession regarding the subject Servicing Advance as the Master Servicer may reasonably request, and the Master Servicer shall be obligated, out of the Master Servicer’s own funds, to reimburse the Special Servicer for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances (other than Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances) made by the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Such reimbursement and any accompanying payment of interest shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the written request therefor pursuant to the preceding sentence by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Special Servicer. Upon the Master Servicer’s reimbursement to the Special Servicer of any Servicing Advance and payment to the Special Servicer of interest thereon, all in accordance with this Section 3.03, the Master Servicer shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have made such Servicing Advance at the same time as the Special Servicer actually made such Servicing Advance, and accordingly, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such Servicing Advance, together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, at the same time, in the same manner and to the same extent as the Master Servicer would otherwise have been entitled if it had actually made such Servicing Advance at the time the Special Servicer did. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.03(c), the Master Servicer shall not be required to reimburse the Special Servicer out of its own funds for, or to make at the direction of the Special Servicer, any Servicing Advance if the Master Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such Servicing Advance, although not characterized by the Special Servicer as a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, is in fact a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer in writing of such determination and, if applicable, such Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance shall instead be reimbursed to the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05 of this Agreement.

Any request by the Special Servicer that the Master Servicer make a Servicing Advance shall be deemed to be a determination by the Special Servicer that such requested Servicing Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such determination, provided that the determination shall not be binding on the Master Servicer or Trustee. On the first Business Day after the Determination Date for the related Distribution Date, the Special Servicer shall report to the Master Servicer if the Special Servicer determines any Servicing Advance previously made by the Master Servicer with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such a determination in response to a Servicing Advance or a proposed Servicing Advance and such determination that the Servicing Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance shall be binding upon the Master Servicer, but shall in no way limit the ability of the Master Servicer in the absence of such

  -165-  

 

determination to make its own determination that any Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion of, and not all of, any previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee determines that a proposed Servicing Advance with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, if made, or any outstanding Servicing Advance with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall provide the applicable Other Servicer written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days of the date of such determination. All such Advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors and further as provided in Section 3.05(a). No costs incurred by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in effecting the payment of real estate taxes, assessments and, if applicable, ground rents on or in respect of the Mortgaged Properties shall, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation, the Certificate Administrator’s calculation of monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balances of the related Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans or related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable, so permit. If the Master Servicer fails to make any required Servicing Advance as and when due (including any applicable cure periods), to the extent the Trustee has actual knowledge of such failure, the Trustee shall make such Servicing Advance pursuant to Section 7.05. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Servicing Advance shall be required hereunder if such Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. In addition, the Master Servicer shall consider Unliquidated Advances in respect of prior Servicing Advances for purposes of nonrecoverability determinations. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Servicing Advances under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.03(c), the Master Servicer may in its good faith judgment elect (but shall not be required unless directed by the Special Servicer with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and REO Loans) to make a payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by a Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) (which shall be deemed first made from amounts distributable as principal and then from all other amounts comprising general collections) to pay for certain expenses set forth below notwithstanding that the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer, as the case may be) has determined that a Servicing Advance with respect to such expenditure would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance (unless, with respect to Specially Serviced Loans or REO Loans, the Special Servicer has notified the Master Servicer to not make such expenditure), where making such expenditure would prevent (i) the related Mortgaged Property from being uninsured or being sold at a tax sale or (ii) any event that would cause a loss of the priority of the lien of the related Mortgage, or the loss of any security for the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan; provided that in each instance, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee) that making such expenditure is in the best interest of the Certificateholders (and, if applicable, the Companion Holders), all as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loans). The Master Servicer or the Trustee may elect to obtain reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances from the Trust pursuant to the terms of Section 3.17(c). The

  -166-  

 

parties acknowledge that pursuant to the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer is obligated to make servicing advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan (with, in each case, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon provided for under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA) in the manner set forth in the applicable Non-Serviced PSA and the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement.

(d)               In connection with its recovery of any Servicing Advance out of the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by the Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) pursuant to Section 3.05(a), the Trustee, the Special Servicer and then the Master Servicer, as the case may be and in that order, shall be entitled to receive, out of any amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of such Servicing Advance from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Subject to Section 3.17(c), the Master Servicer shall reimburse itself, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, for any outstanding Servicing Advance as soon as practically possible after funds available for such purpose are deposited in the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by the Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) subject to the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s options and rights to defer recovery of such amounts as provided herein; provided, however, that the Master Servicer’s or Trustee’s options and rights to defer recovery of such amounts shall not alter the Master Servicer’s obligation to reimburse the Special Servicer for any outstanding Servicing Advance as provided for in this sentence. To the extent amounts on deposit in the Companion Distribution Account with respect to the related Companion Loan are insufficient for any such reimbursement, the Master Servicer shall use efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to enforce the rights of the holder of the related Mortgage Loan under the related Intercreditor Agreement to obtain any reimbursement available from the holder of the related Companion Loan.

(e)               To the extent an operations and maintenance plan is required to be established and executed pursuant to the terms of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall request from the Mortgagor written confirmation thereof within a reasonable time after the later of the Closing Date and the date as of which plan is required to be established or completed. To the extent that any repairs, capital improvements, actions or remediations are required to have been taken or completed pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall request from the Mortgagor written confirmation of such actions and remediations within a reasonable time after the later of the Closing Date and the date as of which action or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed. To the extent a Mortgagor shall fail to promptly respond to any inquiry described in this Section 3.03(e), the Master Servicer shall report any such failure to the Special Servicer within a reasonable time after the date as of which actions or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements, the Master Servicer need not deposit into the Collection Account any amount that the Master Servicer would be authorized to withdraw immediately from such account in accordance with the terms of Section 3.05 and shall be entitled to instead immediately pay such amount directly to the Person(s) entitled thereto; provided that such amounts shall be applied in accordance with the terms hereof and shall be reported as if deposited in the Collection Account and then withdrawn.

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, actual payments from Mortgagors in the nature of Escrow Payments, charges for beneficiary statements or demands, assumption fees, Modification Fees, extension fees, defeasance fees, amounts collected for Mortgagor checks returned for insufficient funds or other amounts the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer would be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection Account.

Assumption, extension and Modification Fees actually received from Mortgagors on Specially Serviced Loans shall be promptly delivered to the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

Any such amounts received by the Special Servicer with respect to an REO Property shall be deposited by the Special Servicer into the REO Account and remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.14(c). With respect to any such amounts paid by check to the order of the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall endorse without recourse or warranty such check to the order of the Master Servicer and shall promptly deliver any such check to the Master Servicer by overnight courier. Funds in the Collection Account may only be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.06. As of the Closing Date, the Collection Account shall be located at the offices of Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association. The Master Servicer shall give written notice to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Depositor of the new location of the Collection Account prior to any change thereof.

For purposes of determining amounts to be deposited in the Collection Account in respect of the related Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall determine the allocation of such amounts in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(b)               The Certificate Administrator, on behalf of the Trustee, shall establish and maintain (i) the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account and the Interest Reserve Account in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, (ii) the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account (if

For the avoidance of doubt, so long as Computershare Trust Company, National Association is the Certificate Administrator, all funds held in the Distribution Account and the Interest Reserve Account shall remain uninvested.

With respect to each Companion Loan (excluding any Non-Serviced Companion Loan), the Companion Paying Agent shall establish and maintain the Companion Distribution Account, which may be a subaccount of the Collection Account, for distributions to each Companion Holder. Funds in the Companion Distribution Account shall be held for the benefit of the related Companion Holder.

Each account that constitutes the Loss of Value Reserve Fund shall be an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account. The Master Servicer shall, upon receipt of properly identified and available Loss of Value Payments, deposit in the Loss of Value Reserve Fund all Loss of Value Payments received by it. The Certificate Administrator shall account for the Loss of Value Reserve Fund as an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h) and not an asset of either Trust REMIC. Furthermore, for all federal tax purposes, the Certificate Administrator shall (i) treat amounts paid out of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund through the Collection Account to the Certificateholders as paid to and distributed by the Trust REMICs and (ii) treat any amounts paid out of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund through the Collection Account to a Mortgage Loan Seller as distributions by the Trust to such Mortgage Loan Seller as beneficial owner of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund.

The Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the REO Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) on behalf of the Trustee, shall maintain continuous physical possession of any Permitted Investment of amounts in the Collection Account, such Companion Distribution Account, such Servicing Accounts, such Loss of Value Reserve Fund or such REO Account, as applicable, that is either (i) a “certificated security,” as such term is defined in the UCC (such that the Trustee shall have control pursuant to Section 8-106 of the UCC) or (ii) other property in which a secured party may perfect its security interest by physical possession under the UCC or any other applicable law. In the case of any Permitted Investment held in the form of a “security entitlement” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall take or cause to be taken such action as the Trustee deems reasonably necessary to cause the Trustee to have control over such security entitlement. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer) or the Special Servicer (in the case of the REO Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) shall:

(i)                                     consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) all amounts then payable thereunder and (b) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and

(ii)                                  demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment Account.

(b)                                 Interest and investment income realized on funds deposited in the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Master Servicer to the extent (with respect to Servicing Accounts) not required to be paid to the related Mortgagor and shall be subject to its withdrawal, or withdrawal at its direction, in accordance with Section 3.03 or Section 3.05(a), as the case may be. Interest and investment income realized on funds deposited in the REO Account

  -185-  

 

or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer, to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for each period from and including any Distribution Date to and including the immediately succeeding P&I Advance Date, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Special Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.14(c). In the event that any loss shall be incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment (as to which the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, would have been entitled to any Net Investment Earnings hereunder) directed to be made by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and on deposit in any of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Servicing Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or the REO Account, the Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the REO Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) shall deposit therein, no later than the P&I Advance Date, without right of reimbursement, the amount of Net Investment Loss, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date; provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to deposit any loss on an investment of funds in an Investment Account if such loss is incurred solely as a result of the insolvency of the federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company that holds such Investment Account, so long as such depository institution or trust company satisfied the qualifications set forth in the definition of Eligible Account at the time such investment was made (and such federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company is not an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, unless such depository institution or trust company satisfied the qualification set forth in the definition of Eligible Account both (x) at the time the investment was made and (y) thirty (30) days prior to such insolvency).

(c)               Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Master Servicer may and, upon the request of Holders of Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights allocated to any Class shall, take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

Section 3.07        Maintenance of Insurance Policies; Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. (a) To the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan and required by the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause each Mortgagor to maintain, and the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Properties) shall maintain, all insurance coverage as is required under the related Mortgage Loan documents except to the extent that the failure of the related Mortgagor to do so is an Acceptable Insurance Default (and except as provided in the next sentence with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be) or if the Trustee does not have an insurable interest. If the Mortgagor does not so maintain such insurance coverage or the Mortgaged Property is an REO Property, subject to its recoverability determination with respect to any required Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties

  -186-  

 

other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) shall maintain all insurance coverage as is required under the related Mortgage Loan documents, but only in the event the Trustee has an insurable interest therein and such insurance is available to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and, if available, can be obtained at commercially reasonable rates, as determined by the Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) in accordance with the Servicing Standard (provided that any determination that such insurance coverage is not available or not available at commercially reasonable rates shall be made (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, after consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (or, in each case, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, with the consent of the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder)) (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party), except to the extent that the failure of the related Mortgagor to do so is an Acceptable Insurance Default as determined by the Special Servicer; provided, however, that if any Mortgage or any other Mortgage Loan document permits the holder thereof to dictate to the Mortgagor the insurance coverage to be maintained on such Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer or, with respect to an REO Property, the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall impose or maintain, as applicable, such insurance requirements as are consistent with the Servicing Standard taking into account the insurance in place at the origination of the Mortgage Loan, provided, further, that, with respect to the immediately preceding proviso, the Master Servicer shall be obligated to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to maintain (or to itself maintain) insurance against property damage resulting from terrorist or similar acts unless the Mortgagor’s failure is an Acceptable Insurance Default (as determined by the Special Servicer (i) unless a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, after consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (or, in each case, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, with the consent of the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder)) (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party), and only in the event the Trustee has an insurable interest therein and such insurance is available to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and, if available, can be obtained at commercially reasonable rates. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants (at the applicable servicer’s expense) in determining whether any insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates. Subject to Section 3.15(a) and the costs of such insurance being reimbursed or paid to the Special Servicer as provided in the third-to-last sentence of this paragraph, the Special Servicer shall maintain (except to the extent that the failure to maintain such insurance coverage is an Acceptable Insurance Default) for each REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) no less insurance coverage than was previously required of the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents unless the Special Servicer determines ((i) unless a Control

  -187-  

 

Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, after consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (or, in each case, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, with the consent of the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder)) (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party), that such insurance is not available at commercially reasonable rates or that the Trustee does not have an insurable interest, in which case the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination. All Insurance Policies maintained by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall (i) contain a “standard” mortgagee clause, with loss payable to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), including any related Serviced Companion Loan, other than REO Properties) or to the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO Properties), (ii) be in the name of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO Properties), (iii) include coverage in an amount not less than the lesser of (x) the full replacement cost of the improvements securing the Mortgaged Property or the REO Property, as applicable, and (y) the outstanding principal balance owing on the related Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) or REO Loan, as applicable, and in any event, the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions, (iv) include a replacement cost endorsement providing no deduction for depreciation (unless such endorsement is not permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents), (v) be noncancelable without thirty (30) days prior written notice to the insured party (except in the case of nonpayment, in which case such policy shall not be cancelled without ten (10) days prior notice) and (vi) subject to the first proviso in the second sentence of this Section 3.07(a), be issued by a Qualified Insurer authorized under applicable law to issue such Insurance Policies. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under any such Insurance Policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property or amounts to be released to the related Mortgagor, in each case in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the provisions of the related Mortgage Loan documents) shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05(a). Any costs incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such Insurance Policies in respect of Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) (other than REO Properties and other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (i) if the Mortgagor defaults on its obligation to do so, shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance (so long as such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance and if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance then such cost shall instead be paid out of the Collection Account) and will be charged to the related Mortgagor and (ii) shall not, for purposes of calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion Loan (if any), notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan so permit. Any cost incurred by the Special Servicer in maintaining any such Insurance Policies with respect to REO Properties shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c) or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance (so long as such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance and if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance then such cost

  -188-  

 

shall instead be paid out of the Collection Account). The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07 shall apply to any Serviced Whole Loan as if it were a single “Mortgage Loan”. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not be required to maintain, and will not be in default for failing to obtain, any earthquake or environmental insurance on any Mortgaged Property unless such insurance was required at the time of origination of the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and is currently available at commercially reasonable rates and the Trustee has an insurable interest therein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that either (x) require the Mortgagor to maintain “all risk” property insurance (and do not expressly permit an exclusion for terrorism) or (y) contain provisions generally requiring the applicable Mortgagor to maintain insurance in types and against such risks as the holder of such Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) reasonably requires from time to time in order to protect its interests, the Master Servicer shall, consistent with the Servicing Standard, (A) monitor in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether the Insurance Policies for the related Mortgaged Property contain Additional Exclusions; provided that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon certificates of insurance in determining whether such policies contain Additional Exclusions, (B) request the Mortgagor to either purchase insurance against the risks specified in the Additional Exclusions or provide an explanation as to its reasons for failing to purchase such insurance and (C) notify the Special Servicer if it has knowledge that any Insurance Policy for a Mortgaged Property contains Additional Exclusions or if it has knowledge (such knowledge to be based upon the Master Servicer’s compliance with the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B) above) that any Mortgagor fails to purchase the insurance requested to be purchased by the Master Servicer pursuant to clause (B) above. If the Special Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such failure is not an Acceptable Insurance Default, the Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause such insurance to be maintained. The Special Servicer (at the expense of the Trust) shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants in making such determinations. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants (at the expense of the Master Servicer) in determining whether Additional Exclusions exist. Furthermore, if the Special Servicer determines that such failure is an Acceptable Insurance Default the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver such conclusions in writing to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website for those Mortgage Loans that (i) have one of the ten (10) highest outstanding Stated Principal Balances of all of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust or (ii) comprise more than 5% of the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust. Subject to the Servicing Standard, during the period that the Special Servicer is evaluating the availability of such insurance or waiting for a response from the Directing Certificateholder or any Companion Holder or, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be liable for any loss related to its failure to require the Mortgagor to maintain (or its failure to maintain) such insurance and will not be in default of its obligations as a result of such failure unless the Special Servicer is required to take any immediate action pursuant to the Servicing Standard or otherwise hereunder, and the Master Servicer will not itself maintain such insurance or cause such insurance to be maintained.

  -189-  

 

(i) If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer insuring against fire and hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, but excluding any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), as the case may be, required to be serviced and administered hereunder, then, to the extent such Insurance Policy provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause fire and hazard insurance to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties or REO Properties. Such Insurance Policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, if there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a fire and hazard Insurance Policy complying with the requirements of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such Insurance Policy, promptly deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount of such loss or losses that would have been covered under the individual policy but are not covered under the blanket Insurance Policy because of such deductible clause to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan), or in the absence of such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with the Servicing Standard. In connection with its activities as administrator and Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans or any Serviced Companion Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy. Consistent with subsection (a) above, the Special Servicer, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, may maintain, earthquake insurance on REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), provided coverage is available at commercially reasonable rates, the cost of which shall be a Servicing Advance.

(ii)                                  If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by a master single interest or force-placed Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer naming the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee as the loss payee, then to the extent such Insurance Policy provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause such insurance to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties and REO Properties. In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by such master single interest or force-placed Insurance Policy, the incremental costs of such insurance applicable to such Mortgaged Property or REO Property (i.e., other than any minimum or standby premium payable for such policy whether or not any Mortgaged Property or REO Property is covered thereby) shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance. Such master single interest or force-placed policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy otherwise complying with the provisions of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy had it been maintained, deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the master single or force-placed interest policy because of such deductible clause, to the extent that any such

  -190-  

 

deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan, including any related Serviced Companion Loan, or, in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with the Servicing Standard.

(b)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions Insurance Policy with a  Qualified Insurer covering losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer’s or employee’s misappropriation of funds or errors or omissions. Such amount of coverage shall be in such form and amount as are consistent with the Servicing Standard. Coverage of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under a policy or bond obtained by an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and providing the coverage required by this Section 3.07(b) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.07(b). The Special Servicer and the Master Servicer shall promptly report in writing to the Trustee any material changes that may occur in their respective fidelity bonds, if any, and/or their respective errors and omissions Insurance Policies, as the case may be, and shall furnish to the Trustee copies of all binders and policies or certificates evidencing that such bonds, if any, and Insurance Policies are in full force and effect.

(c)               At the time the Master Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that any Mortgaged Property (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) is in a federally designated special flood hazard area (and such flood insurance has been made available), the Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor (in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the Mortgage Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan documents) to maintain, and, if the related Mortgagor shall default in its obligation to so maintain, shall itself maintain to the extent such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard) and to the extent the Trustee, as mortgagee, has an insurable interest therein, flood insurance in respect thereof, but only to the extent the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or related Serviced Companion Loan permits the mortgagee to require such coverage and the maintenance of such coverage is consistent with the Servicing Standard. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan (and any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable), and (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, plus such additional excess flood coverage with respect to the Mortgaged Property, if any, in an amount consistent with the Servicing Standard. If the cost of any insurance described above is not borne by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall promptly make a Servicing Advance for such costs.

(d)               During all such times as any REO Property (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) shall be located in a federally designated special flood hazard area, the Special Servicer shall cause to be maintained, to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard), a flood Insurance Policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration in an amount representing coverage not less than the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, plus such additional excess flood coverage with respect to the Mortgaged Property, if any, in an amount consistent with the Servicing Standard. The cost of any such flood insurance

  -191-  

 

with respect to an REO Property shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c) or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance and if determined to be nonrecoverable, to the extent sufficient funds are available prior to remitting to the Certificate Administrator for distribution to the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall pay such amount out of general collections in the Collection Account.

(e)               Each of the Operating Advisor and Asset Representations Reviewer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement an “errors and omissions” Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer covering losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer’s or employee’s errors or omissions.

(f)                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.07, so long as the long-term debt obligations or the deposit account or claims-paying ability of the Master Servicer (or its immediate or remote parent) or the Special Servicer (or its immediate or remote parent), as applicable, is rated at least “A-” by S&P or “A-” by Fitch (if rated by Fitch), the Master Servicer (or its public parent) or the Special Servicer (or its public parent), as applicable, shall be allowed to provide self-insurance with respect to any of its obligations under this Section 3.07.

Section 3.08        Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements. (a) As to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-sale” clause, which by its terms:

(i)                                   provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the sale or other transfer of an interest in the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor; or

(ii)               provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan may not be assumed without the consent of the mortgagee in connection with any such sale or other transfer;

then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Special Servicer (or, with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan, if mutually agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer (in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard and subject to the consent of the Special Servicer)), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall (a) exercise any right it may have with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon or (y) to withhold its consent to any sale or transfer, consistent with the Servicing Standard or (b) waive any right to exercise such rights, provided that (i) (A) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan and no Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall obtain the prior written consent (or deemed consent pursuant to Section 6.08) of the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Special Servicer), and the Directing Certificateholder’s consent shall be deemed given ten (10) days after receipt (unless earlier objected to by the Directing Certificateholder) of the Special Servicer’s written analysis and recommendation with respect to such waiver together with such

  -192-  

 

other information reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder, (B) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan, a Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and no Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), (C) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), and (D) with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, the prior consent of the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall have been obtained, to the extent required by the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, and pursuant to the process described in this Agreement (provided that in the case of clause (A), clause (B) and clause (C) such consent shall be deemed given or such consultation shall be deemed to have occurred, as applicable, if a response to the request for consent or consultation, as the case may be, is not provided within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Special Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis and all information reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and reasonably available to the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent or conduct such consultation), and (ii) with respect to any Mortgage Loan (x) with a Stated Principal Balance greater than or equal to $35,000,000, (y) with a Stated Principal Balance greater than or equal to 5% of the aggregated Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then-outstanding or (z) together with all other Mortgage Loans in the same Crossed Mortgage Loan Group (in the case of a Crossed Underlying Loan) or together with all other Mortgage Loans with the same Mortgagor (or an Affiliate thereof), that is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans outstanding (by Stated Principal Balance), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, prior to consenting to any action, shall obtain, a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), provided, however, that with respect to sub-clauses (y) and (z) of this sub-clause (ii), such Mortgage Loan shall also have a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000 for such Rating Agency Confirmation requirement to apply. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor (telephonically or electronically), on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions that it is processing or for which its consent is required and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with any request for a Rating Agency Confirmation from a Rating Agency (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related Companion Loan Rating Agencies) pursuant to this Section 3.08(a), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall (if not already provided in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement) deliver a Review Package to the 17g-5 Information Provider (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related 17g-5 information provider) in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement.

  -193-  

 

If any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or related Serviced Companion Loan provides that such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan may be assumed or transferred without the consent of the mortgagee, provided that certain conditions contained in the related Mortgage Loan documents are satisfied where no mortgagee discretion is necessary in order to determine if such conditions are satisfied, then for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, (i) the Master Servicer (with respect to all Non-Specially Serviced Loans, if such action is not a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision) or (ii) the Special Servicer (with respect to all Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Specially Serviced Loans and other than as set forth in clause (i) or related Serviced Companion Loans), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall determine in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether such conditions have been satisfied.

(b)               As to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-encumbrance” clause that by its terms:

(i)                                    provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor; or

(ii)                                 requires the consent of the mortgagee to the creation of any such additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor;

then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Special Servicer (or, with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan, if mutually agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer (in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard and subject to the consent of the Special Servicer)), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall (a) exercise any right it may have with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon or (y) to withhold its consent to the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance, consistent with the Servicing Standard or (b) waive its right to exercise such rights, provided that (i) (A) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan and no Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall obtain the prior written consent (or deemed consent pursuant to Section 6.08) of the Directing Certificateholder in the case of the Special Servicer, and the Directing Certificateholder’s consent shall be deemed given ten (10) days after receipt (unless earlier objected to by the Directing Certificateholder) of the Special Servicer’s written analysis and recommendation with respect to such waiver together with such other information reasonably required by the Directing Certificateholder, (B) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan, a Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and no Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), (C) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), and (D) with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of an

  -194-  

 

AB Control Appraisal Period, the prior consent of the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall have been obtained, to the extent required by the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, and pursuant to the process described in this Agreement (provided that in the case of clause (A), clause (B) and clause (C), such consent shall be deemed given or such consultation shall be deemed to have occurred, as applicable, if a response to the request for consent or consultation, as the case may be, is not provided within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Special Servicer’s written recommendation, which may be in the form of an Asset Status Report, and analysis and all information reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and reasonably available to the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent or conduct such consultation), and (ii) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has obtained Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) if such Mortgage Loan (A) has an outstanding principal balance that is greater than or equal to 2% of the Stated Principal Balance of the outstanding Mortgage Loans, (B) has an LTV Ratio greater than 85% (including any existing and proposed debt), (C) has a Debt Service Coverage Ratio less than 1.20x (in each case, determined based upon the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan and related Companion Loan, if any, and the principal amount of the proposed additional lien), (D) is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans (by Stated Principal Balance) or (E) has a Stated Principal Balance greater than $35,000,000; provided, however, that with respect to sub-clauses (A), (B) and (C) and (D) of this sub-clause (ii), such Mortgage Loan shall also have a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000 for such Rating Agency Confirmation requirement to apply. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor (telephonically or electronically), on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with any request for a Rating Agency Confirmation from a Rating Agency (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related Companion Loan Rating Agencies) pursuant to this Section 3.08(b), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall (if not already provided in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement) deliver a Review Package to the 17g-5 Information Provider (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related 17g-5 information provider) in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement.

To the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Rating Agency Confirmation described in the immediately preceding paragraph or in Section 3.08(a) shall be an expense of the related Mortgagor; provided that if the Mortgage Loan documents are silent as to who bears the costs of obtaining any such Rating Agency Confirmation, the Master Servicer of Special Servicer that is processing the related action shall use reasonable efforts to make the related Mortgagor bear such costs and expenses. Unless determined to be a Nonrecoverable

  -195-  

 

Advance such costs not collected from the related Mortgagor shall be advanced as a Servicing Advance.

If any Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan provides that such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan may be further encumbered without the consent of the mortgagee, provided that certain conditions contained in the related Mortgage Loan documents are satisfied where no mortgagee discretion is necessary in order to determine if such conditions are satisfied, then for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, (i) the Special Servicer (with respect to all Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and other than as set forth in clause (ii))), and (ii) the Master Servicer (with respect to all Non-Specially Serviced Loans not involving a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall determine whether such conditions have been satisfied.

Upon receiving a request for any matter described in Section 3.08(a) or this Section 3.08(b) that constitutes a consent or waiver with respect to a “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall promptly forward such request to the Special Servicer and the Special Servicer shall process such request (including, without limitation, interfacing with the Mortgagor) (unless the Master Servicer and Special Servicer mutually agree with respect to a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan that the Master Servicer shall process such request with respect to a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision) and except as provided in the next sentence, the Master Servicer will have no further obligation with respect to such request or due-on-sale or due-on-encumbrance. The Master Servicer shall continue to cooperate with the Special Servicer by delivering to the Special Servicer any additional information in the Master Servicer’s possession requested by the Special Servicer relating to such consent or waiver with respect to a “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause. Unless the Master Servicer and Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request with respect to a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to process any request relating to such consent or waiver with respect to a “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause and shall not be required to interface with the Mortgagor or provide a written recommendation and analysis with respect to any such request. If the Master Servicer and Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan that is a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall obtain the Special Servicer’s prior consent (or deemed consent) to the Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, as applicable.

(c)               Nothing in this Section 3.08 shall constitute a waiver of the Trustee’s right, as the mortgagee of record, to receive notice of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan, any sale or other transfer of the related Mortgaged Property or the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance with respect to such Mortgaged Property.

(d)               Except as otherwise permitted by Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b) and/or Section 3.18, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall agree to modify, waive or amend any term of any Mortgage Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, in

  -196-  

 

connection with the taking of, or the failure to take, any action pursuant to this Section 3.08. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide copies of any final waivers (except with respect to provision of any such waivers to the 17g-5 Information Provider, exclusive of any Privileged Information) it effects pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.08(b) to each other and to the 17g-5 Information Provider with respect to each Mortgage Loan, and shall notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, each other and, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the 17g-5 Information Provider (for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) and, with respect to a Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, of any assumption or substitution agreement executed pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.08(b) and shall forward thereto a copy of such agreement.

(e)               [RESERVED].

(f)                For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer may not waive its rights or grant its consent (or consent to the Master Servicer taking any such action) under any “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause relating to any Mortgage Loan other than in compliance with the provisions of Section 3.08(a) through (d) hereof without (x) (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, the consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder having been obtained if and to the extent required by, and pursuant to the process described under Section 6.08(a), (y) (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, consultation with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) and (z) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, consultation with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a). The Directing Certificateholder will have ten (10) days after receipt of notice along with the Special Servicer’s recommendation and analysis with respect to such proposed waiver or proposed granting of consent and any additional information the Directing Certificateholder may reasonably request from the Special Servicer of a proposed waiver or consent under any “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause in which to grant or withhold its consent (provided that if the Special Servicer fails to receive a response to such notice from the Directing Certificateholder in writing within such period, then the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed to have consented to such proposed waiver or consent).

(g)               With respect to any Mortgagor request or other action on a Non-Specially Serviced Loan for matters that are Major Decisions or Special Servicer Decisions, if the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer have mutually agreed to have the Master Servicer process such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, the Master Servicer shall not agree to such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and, as applicable, the Directing Certificateholder (which consent or deemed consent shall be obtained by the Special Servicer). In connection with such consent, if the Master Servicer is processing such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide the Special Servicer with written notice of any request for such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, along with the Master Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis, and all information in the Master Servicer’s possession that may be reasonably requested by the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent; provided that in the event that the Special Servicer does not respond within ten (10) days after receipt of such written notice and all such

  -197-  

 

reasonably requested information, plus the time period provided to any Serviced Companion Noteholder under a related Intercreditor Agreement, the Special Servicer’s consent to such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision shall be deemed granted.

(h)               Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.08, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, makes a determination under Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.08(b) that the applicable conditions in the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents, as applicable, with respect to assumptions or encumbrances permitted without the consent of the mortgagee have been satisfied, the applicable assumptions and transfers may be subject to an assumption or other fee, unless such fees are otherwise prohibited pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents; provided that any such fee not provided for in the Mortgage Loan documents does not constitute a “significant” change in yield pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1001-3(e)(2).

Section 3.09        Realization Upon Defaulted Loans and Companion Loans. (a) Upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan documents related to a Serviced Whole Loan or a Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide written notice to the related Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, with a copy of such notice to the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall, subject to subsections (b) through (d) of this Section 3.09 and Section 3.24, subject to the Directing Certificateholder’s and the Operating Advisor’s respective rights pursuant to Section 6.08, and any Companion Holder or mezzanine lender’s rights under the related Intercreditor Agreement (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, on behalf of the holders of the beneficial interest of the related Companion Loan) or this Agreement, exercise reasonable efforts, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to foreclose upon or otherwise acquire title to the related Mortgaged Property or otherwise comparably convert (which may include an REO Acquisition) the ownership of property securing any such Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and related Companion Loan, if any, as come into and continue in payment default or material non-monetary default as to which no satisfactory arrangements (including by way of a discounted pay-off) can be made for collection of delinquent payments, and which are not released from the Trust Fund pursuant to any other provision hereof. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall not be required to make a Servicing Advance and expend funds toward the restoration of such property unless the Special Servicer has determined in its reasonable discretion that such restoration will increase the net proceeds of liquidation of such Mortgaged Property to Certificateholders after reimbursement to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for such Servicing Advance, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has not determined that such Servicing Advance together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in any such proceedings shall be advanced by the Master Servicer; provided that, in each case, such cost or expense would not, if incurred, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. Nothing contained in this Section 3.09 shall be construed so as to require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, to make a bid on any Mortgaged Property at a foreclosure sale or similar proceeding that is in excess of the fair market value of such property, as determined by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in its reasonable judgment taking into account the factors described in Section 3.16(b) and the results of any Appraisal obtained pursuant to the following sentence, all such bids to be made in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard. If and when

  -198-  

 

the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer deems it necessary and prudent for purposes of establishing the fair market value of any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan or any related defaulted Companion Loan, whether for purposes of bidding at foreclosure or otherwise, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, is authorized to have an Appraisal performed with respect to such property by an Independent MAI-designated appraiser the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance.

(b)               The Special Servicer shall not acquire any personal property pursuant to this Section 3.09 unless either:

(i)                                     such personal property is incidental to real property (within the meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Special Servicer; or

(ii)                                 the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Trust (to the extent not allocable to the related Companion Loan) will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.09 and Section 3.24, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee, obtain title to a Mortgaged Property in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or take any other action with respect to any Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and/or any related Companion Holder, would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of CERCLA or any comparable law, unless (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate to such effect delivered to the Trustee) the Special Servicer has previously determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard, based on an Environmental Assessment of such Mortgaged Property performed by an Independent Person who regularly conducts Environmental Assessments and performed within six (6) months prior to any such acquisition of title or other action, that:

(i)                                    such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, after consultation with an environmental consultant, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Holders constituted a single lender (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related Companion Loan), to take such actions as are necessary to bring such Mortgaged Property in compliance with such laws, and

(ii)               there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any Hazardous Materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any currently effective federal, state or local law or regulation, or that, if any such Hazardous Materials are present for which such action could be required, after consultation with an environmental consultant, it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Companion Holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Holders

  -199-  

 

constituted a single lender (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related Companion Loan), to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.

The cost of any such Environmental Assessment shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance and the cost of any remedial, corrective or other further action contemplated by clause (i) and/or clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance, unless it is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance (in which case it shall be an expense of the Trust and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, shall be withdrawn in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement by the Master Servicer from the Collection Account, including from the Companion Distribution Account (such withdrawal to be made from amounts on deposit therein that are otherwise payable on or allocable to such Serviced Whole Loan)); and if any such Environmental Assessment so warrants, the Special Servicer shall, except with respect to any Companion Loan and any Environmental Assessment ordered after such Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, perform such additional environmental testing at the expense of the Trust as it deems necessary and prudent to determine whether the conditions described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence have been satisfied. With respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, the Master Servicer and, with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, the Special Servicer (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall review and be familiar with the terms and conditions relating to enforcing claims and shall monitor the dates by which any claim or action must be taken (including delivering any notices to the insurer and using reasonable efforts to perform any actions required under such policy) under each environmental Insurance Policy in effect and obtained on behalf of the mortgagee to receive the maximum proceeds available under such policy for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests).

(d)               If (i) the environmental testing contemplated by subsection (c) above establishes that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of subsection (c) above of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan and, in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any related Companion Loan, and (ii) there has been no breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in or required to be made pursuant to Section 4 of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements for which the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller could be required to repurchase such Defaulted Loan pursuant to Section 5 of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, then the Special Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust (other than proceeding to acquire title to the Mortgaged Property) and is hereby authorized, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder (in each case, (A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event (or with respect to any Serviced AB Mortgage Loan, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an AB Control Appraisal Period, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) and (B) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party) at such time as it deems appropriate to release such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, provided that, if such Mortgage Loan has a then-outstanding principal balance of greater than $1,000,000, then prior to the release of the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, (i) the Special Servicer shall have notified the Rating Agencies, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded

  -200-  

 

Loan as to such party), in writing of its intention to so release such Mortgaged Property and the bases for such intention, (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall have posted such notice of the Special Servicer’s intention to so release such Mortgaged Property to the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) and (iii) in addition to the prior written consent of the Directing Certificateholder as required above, the Holders of Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights shall have consented or have been deemed to have consented to such release within thirty (30) days of the Certificate Administrator’s posting such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website (failure to respond by the end of such 30-day period being deemed consent of the Holders of the Certificates). To the extent that any fee charged by any Rating Agency in connection with rendering such written confirmation is not paid by the related Mortgagor, such fee is to be an expense of the Trust; provided that the Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such fee from the Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents.

(e)               The Special Servicer shall provide written reports and a copy of any Environmental Assessments in electronic format to the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Master Servicer and the 17g-5 Information Provider monthly regarding any actions taken by the Special Servicer with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan, or defaulted Companion Loan as to which the environmental testing contemplated in subsection (c) above has revealed that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied, in each case until the earlier to occur of satisfaction of both such conditions, repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or release of the lien of the related Mortgage on such Mortgaged Property.

(f)                The Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer of any abandoned and/or foreclosed properties which require reporting to the IRS and shall provide the Master Servicer with all information regarding forgiveness of indebtedness and required to be reported with respect to any Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan that is abandoned or foreclosed and the Master Servicer shall report to the IRS and the related Mortgagor, in the manner required by applicable law, such information and the Master Servicer shall report, via Form 1099A or Form 1099C (or any successor form), all forgiveness of indebtedness and abandonment and foreclosure to the extent such information has been provided to the Master Servicer by the Special Servicer. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such report to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator.

(g)               The Special Servicer shall have the right to determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the advisability of the maintenance of an action to obtain a deficiency judgment if the state in which the Mortgaged Property is located and the terms of the Mortgage Loan (and if applicable, the related Companion Loan) permit such an action.

(h)               The Special Servicer shall maintain accurate records, prepared by one of its Servicing Officers, of each Final Recovery Determination in respect of a Defaulted Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or defaulted Companion Loan or any REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) and the basis thereof. Each Final Recovery Determination shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate promptly delivered to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (but in the case of the

  -201-  

 

Directing Certificateholder, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party) and the Master Servicer and in no event later than the next succeeding P&I Advance Determination Date.

Section 3.10        Trustee and Certificate Administrator to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files. (a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), or the receipt by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, will promptly notify the Trustee and the Custodian and request delivery of the related Mortgage File. Any such notice and request shall be in the form of a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer and shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or remitted to the Master Servicer to enable such deposit, have been or will be so deposited. Within seven (7) Business Days (or within such shorter period as release can reasonably be accomplished if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer notifies the Custodian of an exigency) of receipt of such notice and request, the Custodian shall release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided that in the case of the payment in full of a Serviced Companion Loan or its related Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage File shall not be released by the Custodian unless the related Serviced Whole Loan is paid in full. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection Account.

(b)               From time to time as is appropriate for servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (and any related Companion Loan), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Mortgage File or any document therein to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or a designee), as the case may be. Upon return of such Mortgage File or such document to the Custodian, or the delivery to the Trustee and the Custodian of a certificate of a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, stating that such Mortgage Loan (and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan), was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation which are required to be deposited into the Collection Account (including amounts related to the related Companion Loan, if applicable) pursuant to Section 3.04(a) have been or will be so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the Custodian to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or a designee), as the case may be, with the original being released upon termination of the Trust.

(c)               Within seven (7) Business Days (or within such shorter period as delivery can reasonably be accomplished if the Special Servicer notifies the Trustee of an exigency) of receipt thereof, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Special Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note (including any note evidencing a related Companion Loan) or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. The Special Servicer shall be responsible for the preparation of all such documents and pleadings. When submitted to

  -202-  

 

the Trustee for signature, such documents or pleadings shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Servicing Officer requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and certifying as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s sale. The Trustee shall not be required to review such documents for their sufficiency or enforceability.

(d)               If, from time to time, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, and as appropriate for enforcing the terms of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer requests delivery to it of the original Mortgage Note for a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, then the Custodian shall release or cause the release of such original Mortgage Note to such Non-Serviced Master Servicer or its designee.

Section 3.11        Servicing Compensation. (a) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan and REO Loan (other than the portion of any REO Loan related to any Non-Serviced Companion Loan) (including Specially Serviced Loans and any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan constituting a “specially serviced loan” under any related Non-Serviced PSA). As to each Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan and REO Loan, the Servicing Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Servicing Fee with respect to any Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, except that if such Mortgage Loan is part of a Serviced Whole Loan and such Serviced Whole Loan continues to be serviced and administered under this Agreement notwithstanding such Liquidation Event, then the applicable Servicing Fee shall continue to accrue and be payable as if such Liquidation Event did not occur. The Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, from payments of interest on each Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan and REO Revenues allocable as interest on each REO Loan, and as otherwise provided by Section 3.05(a). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees in respect of any Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan out of that portion of related payments, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and REO Revenues (in the case of an REO Loan) allocable as recoveries of interest, to the extent permitted by Section 3.05(a).

Except as set forth in the following sentence, the fourth paragraph of this Section 3.11(a), Section 6.03, Section 6.05 and Section 7.01(c), the right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part (except in connection with a transfer of all of the Master Servicer’s duties and obligations hereunder to a successor servicer in accordance with the terms hereof). With respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, the Servicing Fee shall be payable to the Master Servicer from amounts payable in respect of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain, and shall not be required to deposit in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a), additional servicing compensation relating to each Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) in the form of the following amounts to the extent collected from the related Mortgagor: (i) 100% of Excess Modification Fees related to any modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Non-Specially Serviced Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement), provided that such transactions are Master Servicer Decisions, (ii) 100% of all assumption application fees and other similar items received on any Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) solely to the extent the Master Servicer is processing the underlying transaction (whether or not the consent of the Special Servicer is required), (iii) 100% of any fee actually paid by a Mortgagor in connection with the defeasance of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan (provided, however, that 50% of the portion of any Excess Modification Fee or waiver fee payable solely in connection with any modification, waiver, amendment or consent executed in connection with a defeasance transaction for which the consent, processing or approval of the Special Servicer is required under clause (xiii) of the definition of “Major Decision” (and specifically excluding any defeasance fees), must be paid by the Master Servicer to the Special Servicer), (iv) 100% of assumption, waiver, consent, loan service transaction and earnout fees and other similar fees (other than assumption application fees and defeasance fees) pursuant to Section 3.08 and Section 3.18 or other actions performed in connection with this Agreement on the Non-Specially Serviced Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement), provided that such transactions qualify as Master Servicer Decisions, (v) 50% of all Excess Modification Fees and assumption, waiver, consent, loan service transaction and earnout fees and other similar fees (other than assumption application and defeasance fees), pursuant to Section 3.08 and Section 3.18 on any Mortgage Loan (other than a Specially Serviced Loan) (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement), provided that such transaction qualifies as a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision and (vi) 50% of any fees related to a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision on a non-Specially Serviced Loan (other than assumption application fees, defeasance fees, liquidation fees, workout fees and any other fees separately addressed herein). In addition, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to charge and retain as additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or Specially Serviced Loan) any charges for processing Mortgagor requests, beneficiary statements or demands, fees in connection with defeasance, if any, and other customary charges actually paid by the related Mortgagors to the extent such beneficiary statements or demand charges were prepared by the Master Servicer, amounts collected for checks returned for insufficient funds with respect to the accounts held by the Master Servicer and reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such review fees are not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents and are not charged in lieu of any fee that is otherwise to be split between the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, in each case only to the extent actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor and shall not be required to deposit such amounts in the Collection Account or the Companion Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or Section 3.04(b), respectively. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Master Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of: (i) Penalty Charges to the extent provided in Section 3.11(d), (ii) interest or other income earned on deposits relating to the Trust Fund in the Collection

  -204-  

 

Account or the Companion Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date), (iii) interest or other income earned on deposits in its Investment Accounts which are not required by applicable law or the related Mortgage Loan to be paid to the Mortgagor, and (iv) Prepayment Interest Excesses collected on the Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Serviced Companion Loan during the related Collection Period to the extent not required to be paid as Compensating Interest Payments. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of any amounts due and owing to any of its Sub-Servicers and the premiums for any blanket Insurance Policy insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07), if and to the extent such expenses are not payable directly out of the Collection Account and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each be entitled to charge and retain reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such fees are (i) not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (ii) not charged in lieu of any fee that is otherwise to be split between the master servicer and special servicer, and (iii) actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association may, at its option, assign or pledge to any third party or retain for itself the Transferable Servicing Interest with respect to any Mortgage Loan and any Serviced Companion Loan (and any successor REO Loan); provided, however, that in the event of any resignation or termination of Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as the Master Servicer, all or any portion of the Transferable Servicing Interest may be reduced by the Trustee to the extent reasonably necessary (in the sole discretion of the Trustee) for the Trustee to obtain a qualified successor master servicer that meets the requirements of Section 6.05 and who requires market-rate servicing compensation that accrues at a per annum rate in excess of the Retained Fee Rate, and any such assignment of the Transferable Servicing Interest shall, by its terms be expressly subject to the terms of this Agreement and such reduction. The Master Servicer shall pay the Transferable Servicing Interest to the holder of the Transferable Servicing Interest at such time and to the extent the Master Servicer is entitled to receive payment of its Servicing Fees hereunder, notwithstanding any resignation or termination of Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer hereunder (subject to reduction pursuant to the preceding sentence).

(b)               As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to each Specially Serviced Loan and REO Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any REO Loan relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property). As to each Specially Serviced Loan and REO Loan, the Special Servicing Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Special Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on the Specially Serviced Loans or REO Loans, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on such Specially Serviced Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Special Servicing Fee

  -205-  

 

with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs with respect to the related Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.05(a). The right to receive the Special Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Special Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement. Nothing herein is intended to limit the Special Servicer’s right to enter into a fee sharing agreement with the Directing Certificateholder or any other party. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Special Servicing Fees with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall be entitled to additional servicing compensation relating to each Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) in the form of (i) (A) 100% of all Excess Modification Fees related to modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Specially Serviced Loans, (B) 50% of Excess Modification Fees related to modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and Serviced Companion Loans that are Non-Specially Serviced Loans, provided that such transaction qualifies as a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision, and (C) 0% of Excess Modification Fees related to modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and Serviced Companion Loans that are not Specially Serviced Loans, provided that such transaction qualifies as a Master Servicer Decision, (ii) 100% of all assumption application fees and other similar items received with respect to Mortgage Loans for which the Special Servicer processes the underlying assumption-related transaction, (iii) 50% of the portion of any Excess Modification Fees or waiver fees payable solely in connection with any modification, waiver, amendment or consent executed in connection with a defeasance transaction for which the consent, processing or approval of the Special Servicer is required (and specifically excluding any defeasance fees), provided that such transaction qualifies as a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, (iv) 100% of all assumption, waiver, consent, loan service transaction and earnout fees pursuant to Section 3.08 and Section 3.18, or other actions performed in connection with this Agreement on the Specially Serviced Loans or certain other similar fees paid by the related Mortgagor on Specially Serviced Loans, (v) (A) 50% of all waiver fees, assumption fees and consent fees pursuant to Section 3.08 or Section 3.18, loan service transaction fees and earnout fees received in each case with respect to all Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans, but including any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) that are Non-Specially Serviced Loans, provided that such transaction qualifies as a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision and (B) 0% of all assumption fees, consent fees and earnout fees received with respect to all Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans, but including any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) that are not Specially Serviced Loans, provided that such transaction qualifies as a Master Servicer Decision, (vi) 100% of charges for beneficiary statements or demands actually paid by the related Mortgagor to the extent such beneficiary statements or demands were prepared by the Special Servicer, (vii) 50% of any fees related to a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision on a non-Specially Serviced Loan (other than assumption application fees, defeasance fees, liquidation fees, workout fees and any other fees separately addressed herein) and (viii) with respect to the accounts held by the Special Servicer, 100% of charges by the Special Servicer collected for checks returned for insufficient funds relating to the accounts held by the Special Servicer, and shall be promptly paid to the Special Servicer by the Master Servicer (or directly from the related Mortgagor) to the extent such fees are

  -206-  

 

paid by the Mortgagor and shall not be required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or paid by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer to the extent the funds are received by the Special Servicer. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of: (i) Penalty Charges to the extent provided in Section 3.11(d), and (ii) interest or other income earned on deposits relating to the Trust Fund in the REO Account in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to such Distribution Date). In addition, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to charge any Mortgagor for and retain as additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such review fees are not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents and are not charged in lieu of any fee that is otherwise to be split between the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, and only to the extent actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor. The Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of a Workout Fee with respect to each Corrected Loan at the Workout Fee Rate on such Corrected Loan for so long as it remains a Corrected Loan; provided, however, that after receipt by the Special Servicer of Workout Fees with respect to such Corrected Loan in an amount equal to $25,000, any Workout Fees in excess of such amount shall be reduced by the Excess Modification Fee Amount; provided, further, however, that in the event the Workout Fee collected over the course of such workout calculated at the Workout Fee Rate is less than $25,000, then the Special Servicer shall be entitled to an amount from the final payment on the related Corrected Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) that would result in the total Workout Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of that Corrected Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) equal to $25,000. The Workout Fee shall be reduced (but not below zero) with respect to each collection on such Corrected Loan from which fee would otherwise be payable until an amount equal to the Excess Modification Fee Amount has been deducted in full. The Workout Fee with respect to any Corrected Loan will cease to be payable if such loan again becomes a Specially Serviced Loan; provided that a new Workout Fee will become payable if and when such Specially Serviced Loan again becomes a Corrected Loan. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Workout Fee with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause) or resigns, it shall retain the right to receive any and all Workout Fees payable in respect of Mortgage Loans or any related Companion Loan that became Corrected Loans prior to the time of that termination or resignation except the Workout Fees will no longer be payable if the Corrected Loan subsequently becomes a Specially Serviced Loan. If the Special Servicer resigns or is terminated (other than for cause), it will receive any Workout Fees payable on Specially Serviced Loans for which the resigning or terminated Special Servicer had determined to grant a forbearance or cured the event of default through a modification, restructuring or workout negotiated by the Special Servicer and evidenced by a signed writing, but which had not as of the time the Special Servicer resigned or was terminated become a Corrected Loan solely because the Mortgagor had not had sufficient time to make three consecutive timely Periodic Payments and which subsequently becomes a Corrected Loan as a result of the Mortgagor making such three consecutive timely Periodic Payments. The successor special servicer shall not be entitled to any portion of such Workout Fees. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to receive any Workout Fees after termination for cause. A Liquidation Fee shall be payable with respect to (a) each Specially Serviced Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Property (other than

  -207-  

 

a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) as to which the Special Servicer receives any Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and (b) each Mortgage Loan repurchased by a Mortgage Loan Seller or for which a Loss of Value Payment was paid, in each case, subject to the exceptions set forth in the definition of Liquidation Fee (such Liquidation Fee to be paid out of such Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds). If, however, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds are received with respect to any Corrected Loan and the Special Servicer is properly entitled to a Workout Fee, such Workout Fee will be payable based on and out of the portion of such Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds that constitute principal and/or interest on such Mortgage Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause), and it has commenced the process of liquidation of the Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property, it shall receive a portion of any Liquidation Fee that becomes payable with respect to the Specially Serviced Loan or the REO Property that was being administered by the Special Servicer at the time of such resignation or termination. The terminated Special Servicer and the successor special servicer shall apportion the Liquidation Fee between themselves in a manner that reflects their relative contributions in earning the fee; provided that if the terminated Special Servicer and the successor special servicer cannot agree on an apportionment of the Liquidation Fee, the Liquidation Fee shall be apportioned on the basis of the number of months that each administered such Specially Serviced Loan, over a period commencing on the date the Mortgage Loan became a Specially Serviced Loan and ending on the date of the final liquidation of the Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall only be entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee or a Workout Fee, but not both, with respect to proceeds on any Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Companion Loan, the Liquidation Fee, Workout Fee and Special Servicing Fees, if any, will be computed as provided in the related Intercreditor Agreement or to the extent such Intercreditor Agreement is silent or refers to this Agreement or indicates such fees are paid in accordance with this Agreement, as provided herein as though such Companion Loan were a Mortgage Loan. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Special Servicer will also be entitled to additional fees in the form of Penalty Charges. The Special Servicer shall be required to pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of any amounts, other than management fees in respect of REO Properties, due and owing to any of its Sub-Servicers and the premiums for any blanket Insurance Policy obtained by it insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07), if and to the extent such expenses are not expressly payable directly out of the Collection Account or the REO Account, and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

With respect to any of the preceding fees as to which both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are entitled to receive a portion thereof (other than a fee split with respect to Penalty Charges), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in their sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge only its respective portion of such fee; provided, that (A) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have the right to reduce or elect not to charge the portion of any such fee due to the other and (B) to the extent either the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge only its respective portion in any such fee, the party that reduced or elected not to charge its respective portion of such fee shall not have any right to share in any part of the other party’s portion of such fee. If the Master Servicer decides not to charge any fee (other than Penalty Charges), the Special Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee

  -208-  

 

to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Master Servicer had charged a fee and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer. Similarly, if the Special Servicer decides not to charge any fee (other than Penalty Charges), the Master Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Master Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had charged a fee and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any portion of such fee charged by the Master Servicer.

(d)               In determining the compensation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to Penalty Charges, on any Distribution Date, the aggregate Penalty Charges collected on any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Companion Loan since the prior Distribution Date shall be applied (in such order) to reimburse (i) the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee for interest on Advances on such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan, if applicable (and, in connection with a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer, the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee for interest on the servicing advances made by any such party with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan pursuant to the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement) due on such Distribution Date, (ii) the Trust for all interest on Advances previously paid to the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vi) (and, in connection with a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related trust for all interest on servicing advances reimbursed by such trust to any party under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, which resulted in an additional expense for the Trust, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement) with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan, if applicable and (iii) the Trust for all additional expenses of the Trust (other than Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees), including without limitation, inspections by the Special Servicer and all unpaid Advances incurred since the Closing Date with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Penalty Charges (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, which shall be payable as additional servicing compensation under the related Non-Serviced PSA) remaining thereafter shall be distributed to the Master Servicer, if and to the extent accrued while such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan was a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, and to the Special Servicer, if and to the extent accrued on such Mortgage Loan during the period such Mortgage Loan was a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan. Any Penalty Charges paid or payable as additional servicing compensation to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be distributed between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, on a pro rata basis, based on the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s respective entitlements to such compensation described in the previous sentence. If the Special Servicer has partially waived any Penalty Charge (part of which accrued prior to the related Servicing Transfer Event), any collections in respect of such Penalty Charge shall be shared pro rata by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer based on the respective portions of such Penalty Charge to which each would otherwise have been entitled (provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be permitted to waive only the Penalty Charges to which the other would be entitled, but not waive Penalty Charges to which it is entitled). If the Master Servicer has partially waived any Penalty Charge (part of which accrued subsequent to the occurrence of a Servicing Transfer Event and prior to the date such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan became a Corrected Loan), any collections in respect of such Penalty Charge shall be shared pro rata by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer based on the respective portions of such Penalty Charge to which each would otherwise have been entitled (provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be

  -209-  

 

permitted to waive only the Penalty Charges to which the other would be entitled, but not waive Penalty Charges to which it is entitled). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else herein to the contrary, Penalty Charges with respect to any Companion Loan will be allocated pursuant to the applicable Intercreditor Agreement after payment of all related Advances and interest thereon and additional expenses of the Trust in accordance with this Section 3.11(d). The Master Servicer may not waive any fee or compensation due to the Special Servicer without the Special Servicer’s consent. The Special Servicer may not waive any fee or compensation due to the Master Servicer without the Master Servicer’s consent.

If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan prior to the applicable Servicing Shift Date, the Special Servicer shall service and administer such Servicing Shift Whole Loan and any related REO Property in the same manner as any other Specially Serviced Loan or Serviced REO Property and shall be entitled to all rights and compensation earned with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan as the Special Servicer of such Serviced Whole Loan. With respect to a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, prior to the applicable Servicing Shift Date, no other special servicer shall be entitled to any such compensation or have such rights and obligations. If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan is still a Specially Serviced Loan on the applicable Servicing Shift Date, (a) the Special Servicer shall be entitled to compensation for the period during which it acted as Special Servicer with respect to such Whole Loan, including its share of any liquidation or workout fees and any additional servicing compensation as well as all surviving indemnity and other rights in respect of such special servicing role under this Agreement and (b) the Non-Serviced Special Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to compensation with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan as if the Special Servicer were being terminated as the Special Servicer with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan and the Non-Serviced Special Servicer were replacing the Special Servicer as the successor Special Servicer with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan.

(e)               With respect to each Distribution Date, the Special Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer within two (2) Business Days following the Determination Date, and the Master Servicer shall deliver, to the extent it has received, to the Certificate Administrator, without charge and on the related Remittance Date, an electronic report (which may include HTML, Word or Excel compatible format, clean and searchable PDF format or such other format as mutually agreeable between the Certificate Administrator and the Special Servicer) that discloses and contains an itemized listing of any Disclosable Special Servicer Fees received by the Special Servicer or any of its Affiliates, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date; provided that no such report shall be due in any month during which no Disclosable Special Servicer Fees were received.

(f)                The Special Servicer and its Affiliates shall be prohibited from receiving or retaining any compensation or any other remuneration (including, without limitation, in the form of commissions, brokerage fees, rebates, or as a result of any other fee-sharing arrangement) from any Person (including, without limitation, the Trust, any Mortgagor, any property manager, any guarantor or indemnitor in respect of a Mortgage Loan and any purchaser of any Mortgage Loan or REO Property) in connection with the disposition, workout or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion Loan, the management or disposition of any REO Property, or the performance of any other special servicing duties under this Agreement, other than as expressly

  -210-  

 

provided in this Section 3.11; provided that such prohibition shall not apply to Permitted Special Servicer/Affiliate Fees.

(g)               Pursuant to the CREFC^® License Agreement, CREFC^® shall be paid (according to the payment instructions set forth on Exhibit JJ hereto or such other payment instructions as CREFC^® may provide to the Master Servicer in writing at least two Business Days prior to the Remittance Date) the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee on a monthly basis. The Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and, to the extent sufficient funds are on deposit therein, pay the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee to CREFC^® in accordance with Section 3.05(a)(xiii) on a monthly basis, from funds on deposit in the Collection Account.

Section 3.12        Inspections; Collection of Financial Statements; Delivery of Reports. (a)  The Master Servicer (or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan and REO Properties, the Special Servicer) shall perform (at its own expense), or shall cause to be performed (at its own expense), a physical inspection of each Mortgaged Property relating to a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, a Specially Serviced Loan or an REO Loan) with a Stated Principal Balance of (i) $4,000,000 or more at least once every twelve (12) months and (ii) less than $4,000,000 at least once every twenty-four (24) months, in each case, commencing in the calendar year 2025 (and each Mortgaged Property shall be inspected on or prior to December 31, 2025); provided, however, that if a physical inspection has been performed by the Special Servicer in the previous twelve (12) months, the Master Servicer will not be required to perform, or cause to be performed, such physical inspection; provided, further, that if any scheduled payment becomes more than sixty (60) days delinquent on the related Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall inspect or cause to be inspected the related Mortgaged Property as soon as practicable after such Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan and annually thereafter for so long as such Mortgage Loan remains a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan. The cost of such inspection by the Special Servicer pursuant to the second proviso of the immediately preceding sentence shall be an expense of the Trust, and, to the extent not paid by the related Mortgagor, reimbursed first from Penalty Charges actually received from the related Mortgagor and then from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(ii), provided that, in the case of such reimbursement relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, such reimbursement shall be made, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, first, from any related AB Subordinate Companion Loan (if any) and then, pro rata and pari passu, from the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan in accordance with their respective outstanding principal balances (provided that, with respect to any AB Subordinate Companion Loan, the foregoing shall not limit or otherwise modify the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement pursuant to which any amounts collected with respect to the related Whole Loan are allocated to the related Serviced AB Mortgage Loan, any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans and the AB Subordinate Companion Loan), in each case, prior to being payable out of general collections. The Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall prepare or cause to be prepared a written report of each such inspection detailing the condition of and any damage to the Mortgaged Property to the extent evident from the inspection and specifying the existence of (i) any vacancy at the Mortgaged Property that the preparer of such report has knowledge of and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, deems material, (ii) any sale, transfer or abandonment of the Mortgaged Property of which the preparer of such report has knowledge or that is evident from

  -211-  

 

the inspection, (iii) any adverse change in the condition of the Mortgaged Property of which the preparer of such report has knowledge or that is evident from the inspection, and that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, deems material, (iv) any visible material waste committed on the Mortgaged Property of which the preparer of such report has knowledge or that is evident from the inspection and (v) photographs of each inspected Mortgaged Property. The Special Servicer and the Master Servicer shall promptly following preparation deliver or make available a copy (in electronic format) of each such report prepared by it to the other party, to the Directing Certificateholder ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan).

Upon request, the Master Servicer shall make available to the Special Servicer all such operating statements, financial statements, budgets, rent rolls and other similar items collected by the Master Servicer with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

In addition, the Special Servicer shall cause quarterly and annual operating statements, budgets and rent rolls to be regularly prepared in respect of each REO Property and shall collect all such items promptly following their preparation. The Special Servicer shall deliver all such items to the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days of receipt, and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall deliver or make available copies of all the foregoing items so collected to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder and the Depositor, in electronic format, in each case within sixty (60) days of its receipt thereof, but in no event, in the case of annual statements, later than June 30 of each year, commencing in 2025 for the 2024 calendar year.

The Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties), as applicable, shall deliver or make available copies (in the case of the Special Servicer, solely to the Master Servicer) (in electronic format) of each CREFC^® Operating Statement Analysis Report and, upon request, the related operating statements (in each case, promptly following the initial preparation and each material revision thereof) to the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder and the related Companion Holder (or in the case of the Special Servicer, deliver to the Master Servicer) (with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan).

Not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) two (2) calendar days following each Distribution Date (provided that if the second calendar day is not a Business Day, then the immediately succeeding Business Day) beginning in April 2024, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Certificate Administrator the CREFC^® Schedule AL File in EDGAR-Compatible Format; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to prepare or deliver the CREFC^® Schedule AL File unless the Depositor has delivered the items required pursuant to Section 2.01(i) in both EDGAR-Compatible Format and Excel Format. If the Certificate Administrator does not receive such CREFC^® Schedule AL File from the Master Servicer by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified in the immediately preceding sentence, it shall immediately request such CREFC^® Schedule AL File from the Master Servicer via email at NoticeAdmin@midlandls.com and send a copy of such request to the Depositor via email to daniel.vinson@barclays.com. In preparing the CREFC^® Schedule AL File and any Schedule AL Additional File for any given Distribution Date, and without any due diligence, investigation or verification, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely, absent manifest error, on the content, completeness, accuracy and compliance with any applicable requirements of Items 1111(h) and 1125 of Regulation AB and Item 601(b) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act as in effect on the Closing Date of the Initial Schedule AL File, any Initial Schedule AL Additional File and Annex A-1 to the Prospectus. The Master Servicer may concurrently with the delivery of the related CREFC^® Schedule AL File, deliver any related Schedule AL Additional File in EDGAR-Compatible Format. The CREFC^® Schedule AL File and the Schedule AL Additional File shall each be a single file. Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Master Servicer shall be required to combine multiple CREFC^® Schedule AL Files or Schedule AL Additional Files unless, solely with respect to the Master Servicer, multiple Sub-Servicers prepare and submit such CREFC^® Schedule AL Files or Schedule AL Additional Files to the Master Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall not be required to review, redact, reconcile, edit or verify the content, completeness or accuracy of the information contained in any CREFC^® Schedule AL File

  -215-  

 

or Schedule AL Additional File. The Certificate Administrator shall not be deemed to have actual knowledge of the contents of any CREFC^® Schedule AL File or Schedule AL Additional File solely by its receipt thereof.

In the absence of manifest error, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, without investigation or inquiry, any information and reports delivered to it by any third party, and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the Master Servicer’s reports and any information provided by the Trustee, without any duty or obligation to recompute, verify or recalculate any of the amounts and other information stated therein.

(e)               The Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer the reports and information required of the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) and Section 3.12(c), and the Master Servicer shall deliver or make available to the Certificate Administrator the reports and data files set forth in Section 3.12(d). The Master Servicer may, absent manifest error, conclusively rely on the reports and/or data to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) and Section 3.12(c). The Certificate Administrator may, absent manifest error, conclusively rely on the reports and/or data to be provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(d). In the case of information or reports to be furnished by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 3.12(d), to the extent that such information or reports are, in turn, based on information or reports to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c) and to the extent that such reports are to be prepared and delivered by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c), the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to provide such information or reports to the Certificate Administrator until it has received the requisite information or reports from the Special Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall not be in default hereunder due to a delay in providing the reports required by Section 3.12(d) caused by the Special Servicer’s failure to timely provide any information or report required under Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c) of this Agreement.

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by this Section 3.12 shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.12 to the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer so fails because such disclosure, in the reasonable belief of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would violate any applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may disclose any such information or any additional information to any Person so long as such disclosure is consistent with applicable law and the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may affix to any information provided by it any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto).

(g)               Unless otherwise specifically stated herein, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is required to deliver or make available any statement, report or information under any provisions of this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may satisfy such obligation by (x) physically delivering a paper copy of such statement, report or information, (y) delivering such statement, report or information in a commonly used electronic

  -216-  

 

format or (z) making such statement, report or information available on the Master Servicer’s website (with respect to items delivered by the Master Servicer) or the Certificate Administrator’s Website, unless this Agreement expressly specifies a particular method of delivery.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall deliver any required statements, reports or other information to the Certificate Administrator in an electronic format mutually agreeable to the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may physically deliver a paper copy of any such statement, report or information as a temporary measure due to system problems, however, copies in electronic format shall follow upon the correction of such system problems.

Section 3.13        Access to Certain Information. (a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall provide or cause to be provided to the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall afford access to any Mortgage Loan Seller and to any Certificateholder that is a federally insured financial institution, the OCC, the FDIC, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America and the supervisory agents and examiners of such boards and such corporations, and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any such Certificateholder, and to each Holder of a Non-Registered Certificate, access to any documentation or information regarding the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is a portion of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan, and the Trust within its control which may be required by applicable law. At the election of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator, such access may be afforded to such Person identified above by the delivery of copies of information as requested by such Person and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator shall be permitted to require payment (other than from the Directing Certificateholder and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator on its own behalf or on behalf of the Certificateholders) of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by it in making such copies. Such access shall (except as described in the preceding sentence) be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian.

The failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section 3.13 as a result of a confidentiality obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.13. In connection with providing information pursuant to this Section 3.13, the Master Servicer and Special Servicer may each (i) affix a reasonable disclaimer to any information provided by it for which it is not the original source (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto); (ii) affix to any information provided by it a reasonable statement regarding securities law restrictions on such information and/or condition access to information on (x) the execution of a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit X, or (y) execution of a “click-through” confidentiality agreement if such information is being provided through the Master Servicer’s website or the Special Servicer’s website; (iii) withhold access to confidential information or any intellectual property; and/or (iv) withhold access to items of information contained in the Servicing File for any Mortgage Loan if the disclosure of such items is prohibited by applicable law or the provisions of any related Mortgage Loan documents or would constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the

  -217-  

 

contrary, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by it pursuant to this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement to the extent that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines, in its reasonable good faith judgment consistent with the applicable Servicing Standard, that such disclosure would violate applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or Companion Loans or the Mortgaged Properties, constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege on behalf of the Trust or otherwise materially harm the Trust. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may refrain from disclosing information that it reasonably determines would prejudice the interests of the Certificateholders with respect to a workout or exercise of remedies as to any particular Mortgage Loan.

Notwithstanding the limitation set forth in the next succeeding paragraph, but subject to the last sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph, upon the reasonable request of any Certificateholder (or with respect to any AB Subordinate Companion Loan related to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, the holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan) that has delivered an Investor Certification to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, may provide (or make available electronically) or make available at the expense of such Certificateholder or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, copies of any appraisals, operating statements, rent rolls and financial statements (in each case, solely relating to the related Serviced Whole Loan or Serviced AB Whole Loan, if requested by the holder of an AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as the case may be) obtained by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided that, in connection with such request, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may require a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, generally to the effect that such Person will keep such information confidential and shall use such information only for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Certificateholder or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, may have under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (other than as permitted in the preceding paragraph with respect to any Certificateholder or as specifically provided for herein with respect to the Directing Certificateholder), unless required by applicable law or court order, no Certificateholder (except, with respect to a Mortgage Loan Seller, to the extent necessary for such party to comply with its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and except for the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, acting in such capacities) or beneficial owner shall be given access to, or be provided copies of, the Mortgage Files or Diligence Files.

(b)               The Certificate Administrator shall make available to Privileged Persons (provided that the Prospectus, Distribution Date Statements, Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements, this Agreement and the Commission EDGAR filings referred to below will be available to the general public) via the Certificate Administrator’s Website, the following items, in each case, to the extent such items were prepared by or delivered to the Certificate Administrator in electronic format:

The Certificate Administrator shall post on the Certificate Administrator’s Website the items and reports identified in clauses (iii)(A) and (B) above on each Distribution Date. In addition, if the Depositor so directs the Certificate Administrator, and on terms acceptable to the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Administrator shall make certain other information and reports related to the Mortgage Loans available through its Internet website.

The Certificate Administrator shall, in addition to posting the applicable notices on the “U.S. Risk Retention Special Notices” tab described above, provide email notification to any Privileged Person (other than Financial Market Publishers) that has registered to receive access to the Certificate Administrator’s Website that a notice has been posted to the “U.S. Risk Retention Special Notices” tab.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Excluded Information shall be made available under a separate tab or heading designated “Excluded Information” on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (and not under any of the tabs or headings described in items (i) through (vii) above) and made available to Privileged Persons other than any Excluded Controlling Class Holder that is a Borrower Party (unless a loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Loan(s)).

Any Person that is a Borrower Party shall only be entitled to access (a) the Distribution Date Statements, and the following items made available to the general public: the Prospectus, this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements and the Commission filings on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and (b) in the case of the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, if any such Person becomes an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, upon delivery to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in physical form (or, solely with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, in electronic form) of an Investor Certification substantially in

  -222-  

 

the form of Exhibit P-1D and upon delivery to the Certificate Administrator in physical form of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1F, which shall include each of the CTSLink User ID associated with such Excluded Controlling Class Holder, all information (other than the Excluded Information with respect to any Excluded Loans (unless a loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Loans)) available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website.

In the case of the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, upon delivery of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B hereto, such Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Class Certificateholder shall be entitled to access all information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee may each rely on (i) an Investor Certification in the form of Exhibit P-1B hereto from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder to the effect that such Person is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder and (ii) an Investor Certification in the form of Exhibit P-1D in physical form (or, solely with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, in electronic form) hereto from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder to the effect that such Person is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to one or more Excluded Loan(s). In the event the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder becomes an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, such party shall promptly notify each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1E that such party has become an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to the Excluded Loan(s) listed in such notice and shall also provide the Certificate Administrator a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1F listing each of the CTSLink User ID associated with such Excluded Controlling Class Holder and directing the Certificate Administrator to restrict such Excluded Controlling Class Holder’s access to the Certificate Administrator’s Website as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. Upon confirmation from the Certificate Administrator that such access has been restricted, such Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall submit a new Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1D in physical form (or, solely with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, in electronic form) to access the information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, except that such Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall not be entitled to access any Excluded Information related to any Excluded Loan(s) (unless a loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Loan(s)) made available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. With respect to any Excluded Information sent for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor shall mark or label such information as “Excluded Information” prior to delivery to the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall segregate on the Certificate Administrator’s Website such Excluded Information (and, if possible at a later time, on loan-by-loan basis) from information relating to other Mortgage Loans or Whole Loans, as applicable.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively assume that the Directing Certificateholder and all beneficial owners of the

  -223-  

 

Certificates of the Controlling Class are not Excluded Controlling Class Holders except to the extent that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, has received a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1E from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that it has become an Excluded Controlling Class Holder. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator shall be liable for any communication to the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder or disclosure of any information relating to an Excluded Loan (including any related Excluded Information delivered to the Certificate Administrator for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website) if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, did not receive prior written notice that the related Mortgage Loan is an Excluded Loan and/or, with respect to any related Excluded Information posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, such information was not delivered to the Certificate Administrator in accordance with Section 3.33.

Each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely on delivery from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B that it is not or is no longer an Excluded Controlling Class Holder. To the extent the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder receives access pursuant to this Agreement to any Excluded Information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website or otherwise receives access to such Excluded Information, such Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Class Certificateholder shall be deemed to have agreed that it (i) will not directly or indirectly provide any such Excluded Information to (A) the related Borrower Party, (B) any related Excluded Controlling Class Holder, (C) any employees or personnel of such Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Class Certificateholder or any of its Affiliates involved in the management of any investment in the related Borrower Party or the related Mortgaged Property or (D) to its actual knowledge, any non-Affiliate that holds a direct or indirect ownership interest in the related Borrower Party, and (ii) will maintain sufficient internal controls and appropriate policies and procedures in place in order to comply with the obligations described in clause (i) above.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any report, document or other information made available on its Internet website and assumes no responsibility therefor, other than with respect to such reports, documents or other information prepared by the Certificate Administrator. In addition, the Certificate Administrator may disclaim responsibility for any information distributed by it for which it is not the original source. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Certificate Administrator shall not be liable for any disclosure of information relating to any Excluded Loan to the extent such information was included in the summary of a Final Asset Status Report delivered to the Certificate Administrator for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website and not properly identified as relating to any Excluded Loan.

Section 3.14        Title to REO Property; REO Account. (a) If title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired (directly or through a single member limited liability company established for that purpose) and thus becomes REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued in the name of the Trust where permitted by applicable law or regulation and consistent with customary servicing procedures, and otherwise, in the name of the Trustee or its nominee on behalf of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, on behalf of the related Companion Holders, in the case of a Serviced Companion Loan. REO Property with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is excluded for all purposes of this Section 3.14. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, shall sell any REO Property prior to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which the Trust acquires ownership of such REO Property, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.856-6(b)(1), for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code, unless the Special Servicer either (i) applies for a qualifying extension of time no later than sixty (60) days prior to the close of the third calendar year in which it acquired ownership (or the period provided in the then applicable REMIC Provisions) and such extension is granted or is not denied (an “REO Extension”) by the IRS to sell such REO Property or (ii) obtains for the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such

  -230-  

 

REO Property subsequent to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which acquisition occurred will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event. If the Special Servicer is granted or not denied the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence or obtains the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Special Servicer shall sell such REO Property within such longer period as is permitted by such REO Extension or such Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. Any expense incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with its being granted the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the second preceding sentence or its obtaining the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the second preceding sentence, shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a).

(b)               The Special Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with any REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets. If an REO Acquisition shall occur, the Special Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more REO Accounts, held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, on behalf of any related Companion Holder(s), as applicable, as their interest shall appear, and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), for the retention of revenues and other proceeds derived from each REO Property. The REO Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Special Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the REO Account, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of properly identified funds, all REO Revenues, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds received in respect of an REO Property. Funds in the REO Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 3.06. The Special Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, and the Master Servicer of the location of the REO Account when first established and of the new location of the REO Account prior to any change thereof.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall withdraw from the REO Account funds necessary for the proper operation, management, insuring, leasing, maintenance and disposition of any REO Property, but only to the extent of amounts on deposit in the REO Account relating to such REO Property. On the later of (x) the date that is on or prior to each Determination Date or (y) two (2) Business Days after such amounts are received and properly identified and determined to be available (or with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, on the Business Day preceding each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date), the Special Servicer shall withdraw from the REO Account and remit to the Master Servicer, which shall deposit into the Collection Account (or the Companion Distribution Account, as applicable), the aggregate of all amounts received in respect of each REO Property during the most recently ended Collection Period, net of (i) any withdrawals made out of such amounts pursuant to the preceding sentence and (ii) Net Investment Earnings on amounts on deposit in the REO Account; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may retain in such REO Account, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, such portion of such balance as may be necessary to maintain a reasonable reserve for repairs, replacements, leasing, management and tenant improvements and other related expenses for the related REO Property. In addition, on or prior to the day the Special Servicer remits funds as provided in this Section 3.14(c), the Special Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer with a written accounting of amounts remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, as applicable, on such date. The Master Servicer shall apply all such amounts as instructed by the Special Servicer on the Determination Date (or with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, on each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date) for the related Distribution Date.

  -231-  

 

(d)               The Special Servicer shall keep and maintain separate records, on a property-by-property basis, for the purpose of accounting for all deposits to, and withdrawals from, the REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(b) or Section 3.14(c).

Section 3.15        Management of REO Property. (a) If title to any REO Property is acquired, the Special Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect, operate and lease such REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) solely for the purpose of its timely disposition and sale in a manner that does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by the Trust or any Serviced Companion Noteholder of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or result in an Adverse REMIC Event. Subject to the foregoing, however, the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority to do any and all things in connection therewith as are in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of each Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder(s)) and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) all as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loan, as the case may be) (as determined by the Special Servicer in its reasonable judgment in accordance with the Servicing Standard). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, REO Property with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is excluded for all purposes of this Section 3.15. Subject to this Section 3.15, the Special Servicer may allow the Trust or any commercial mortgage securitization that holds any Serviced Companion Loan to earn “net income from foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(d) of the Code if it determines that earning such income is in the best interests of Certificateholders and, if applicable, any related Companion Holder(s) on a net after-tax basis as compared with net leasing such REO Property or operating such REO Property on a different basis. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis (and in no event later than two (2) Business Days following receipt of such properly identified funds) in the applicable REO Account all revenues received by it with respect to each REO Property and the related REO Loan, and shall withdraw from the REO Account, to the extent of amounts on deposit therein with respect to such REO Property, funds necessary for the proper operation, management, leasing and maintenance of such REO Property, including, without limitation:

(i)                           all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property;

(ii)                        all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon;

(iii)                     any ground rents in respect of such REO Property, if applicable; and

(iv)                    all costs and expenses necessary to maintain and lease such REO Property.

To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account in respect of any REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above with respect to such REO Property, the Master Servicer (subject to receiving notice from the Special Servicer in accordance with the procedures set forth elsewhere in this Agreement) shall advance from its own

  -232-  

 

funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes unless (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, and prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event)) such Advances would, if made, constitute Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances.

(b)                                  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not:

(i)                                      permit the Trust to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;

(ii)                                    permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;

(iii)                                authorize or permit any construction on any REO Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than 10% of the construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default on the related Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or

(iv)                               Directly Operate, or allow any other Person, other than an Independent Contractor, to Directly Operate, any REO Property on any date more than ninety (90) days after its acquisition date;

unless, in any such case, the Special Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance) to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held for the benefit of the Trust, in which case the Special Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.

(c)                                   The Special Servicer shall contract with any Independent Contractor for the operation and management of any REO Property within ninety (90) days of the acquisition date thereof, provided that:

(i)                                      the terms and conditions of any such contract may not be inconsistent herewith and shall reflect an agreement reached at arm’s length;

(ii)                                   the fees of such Independent Contractor (which shall be an expense of the Trust) shall be reasonable and customary in light of the nature and locality of the Mortgaged Property;

(iii)                                any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor (A) pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property, including, without limitation, those listed in subsection (a) hereof, and (B) remit all related revenues collected (net of its fees and such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer upon receipt;

  -233-  

 

(iv)                               none of the provisions of this Section 3.15(c) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and obligations hereunder with respect to the operation and management of any such REO Property; and

(v)               the Special Servicer shall be obligated to manage and supervise such Independent Contractor in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

The Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Special Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(d)               When and as necessary, the Special Servicer shall send to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer a statement prepared by the Special Servicer setting forth the amount of net income or net loss, as determined for federal income tax purposes, resulting from the operation and management of a trade or business on, the furnishing or rendering of a non-customary service to the tenants of, or the receipt of any other amount not constituting Rents from Real Property in respect of, any REO Property in accordance with Section 3.15(a) and Section 3.15(b).

Section 3.16        Sale of Defaulted Loans and REO Properties. (a) (i) Within thirty (30) days after a Defaulted Loan has become a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall order (but shall not be required to have received) an Appraisal and within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Appraisal shall determine the fair value of such Defaulted Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard; provided, however, that if the Special Servicer is then in the process of obtaining an Appraisal with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Special Servicer shall make its fair value determination as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any event within thirty (30) days) after its receipt of such an Appraisal. The Special Servicer may, from time to time, adjust its fair value determination based upon changed circumstances, new information and other relevant factors, in each instance in accordance with a review of such circumstances and new information in accordance with the Servicing Standard including, without limitation, the period and amount of the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy; provided that the Special Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer in writing of the initial fair value determination and any adjustment to its fair value determination.

(ii)                                   If any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan subject to an Intercreditor Agreement is a Specially Serviced Loan or to the extent otherwise required pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, then the Special Servicer shall promptly notify in writing the Master Servicer, any related Companion Holder and any related mezzanine lender, as applicable, of any events requiring notice under the Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof. Thereafter, any related Companion Holder and related mezzanine lender, as applicable, shall, notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, have the option to purchase the related Mortgage Loan and cure defaults relating thereto as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

  -234-  

 

(iii)                                If any Mortgage Loan not subject to an Intercreditor Agreement becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, or if the related Companion Holder or related mezzanine lender, as applicable, for any such Mortgage Loan subject to an Intercreditor Agreement has not previously exercised the option to purchase the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the previous paragraph, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to solicit offers for each Defaulted Loan on behalf of the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Serviced Companion Loan in such manner as will be reasonably likely to maximize the value of the Defaulted Loan on a net present value basis, if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that no satisfactory arrangements (including by way of a discounted pay-off) can be made for collection of delinquent payments thereon and such a sale would be in the best economic interests of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder (and, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, taking into account the subordinate nature of the related Serviced Companion Loan). In the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the extent permitted under the related Intercreditor Agreement, and such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is not sold together with the Non-Serviced Companion Loan by the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to sell with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan (with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, provided such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan as to such party) such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan if it determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such action would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement (and provided that the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer will not be entitled to a liquidation fee), the Special Servicer shall be entitled to the liquidation fee that the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer would have otherwise been entitled to in connection with the sale of such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicer is required to give the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Directing Certificateholder (but only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to an AB Control Appraisal Period (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, other than in respect of any Excluded Loan as to such party) not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell any Defaulted Loan. In the absence of a cash offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, the Special Servicer may purchase the Defaulted Loan for the Purchase Price or may accept the first cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for the Defaulted Loan.

(iv)                               (A) In the case of a Specially Serviced Loan as to which a default has occurred and is continuing, in the absence of any offer at least equal to the Purchase Price pursuant to clause (iii) above (or purchase by the Special Servicer for such price), the Special Servicer shall solicit offers and, subject to sub-clause (B) below, accept the highest offer received from any Person that is determined by the Special Servicer to be a fair price for such Specially Serviced Loan, if the offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person. In determining whether any offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any Defaulted Loan or REO Property, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to this Agreement within the prior three (3)

  -235-  

 

months), among other factors, the period and amount of the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. If the offeror is an Interested Person (provided that the Trustee may not be an offeror), the Trustee shall determine whether the offer constitutes a fair price unless such offer by an Interested Person (i) is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price and (ii) is the highest offer received. Absent an offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (x) it is the highest offer received and (y) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any such Defaulted Loan, the Trustee shall rely on the most recent Appraisal (or update of such Appraisal) of the related Mortgaged Property conducted in accordance with this Agreement within the preceding nine (9) month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. Except as provided in the following paragraph, the cost of any Appraisal will be covered by, and will be reimbursable as, a Servicing Advance by the Master Servicer.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee must (at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all Appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable by, the Interested Person; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee. The Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person. Neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any Defaulted Loan.

(B)              The Special Servicer will not be obligated to accept the highest offer if the Special Servicer determines (in consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (unless a Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) subject, to the limitations on consultation set forth in and in accordance with Section 6.08(a) and other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder), in accordance with the Servicing Standard (and subject to the requirements of any related Intercreditor Agreement), that the rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Holders of Certificates and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced

  -236-  

 

Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder constituted a single lender, and taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loan). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer from any Person other than an Affiliate of the Special Servicer if it determines, in its reasonable judgment consistent with the Servicing Standard, that the acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Holders of Certificates and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder constituted a single lender, and taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loan) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations, or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable); provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to sell all Defaulted Loans prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall have no obligation to make any fair value determination, to the extent required to do so pursuant to this Section 3.16, on the basis of anything other than the related Appraisal.

(v)                                  Unless and until any Specially Serviced Loan is sold pursuant to this Section 3.16(a), the Special Servicer shall pursue such other resolution strategies with respect to such Specially Serviced Loan, including, without limitation, workout and foreclosure, as the Special Servicer may deem appropriate, consistent with the Asset Status Report and the Servicing Standard and the REMIC Provisions.

(b)               (i) (A) The Special Servicer may purchase any REO Property at the Purchase Price therefor (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such purchase shall be a purchase of the entire REO Property, including the portion relating to the related Companion Loan). The Special Servicer may also offer to sell to any Person any REO Property (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such sale shall be a sale of the entire REO Property, including the portion relating to the related Companion Loan), if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that such a sale would be in the best economic interest of the Trust and the related Companion Holders. The Special Servicer shall give the Trustee, the Master Servicer, each Companion Holder, the Certificate Administrator and the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan as to such party, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice of its intention to (i) purchase any REO Property at the Purchase Price therefor (including a calculation of the Purchase Price) or (ii) sell any REO Property, in which case the Special Servicer shall accept the highest offer received from any Person for any REO Property in an amount at least equal to the Purchase Price therefor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, and subject to the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer, an Affiliate of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Special Servicer, or an employee of either of them may act as broker in connection with the sale of any REO Property and may retain from the proceeds of such sale a brokerage commission that does not exceed the

  -237-  

 

commission that would have been earned by an independent broker pursuant to a brokerage agreement entered into at arm’s length.

(B)              In the absence of any such offer as set forth in sub-clause (A) above, the Special Servicer shall, subject to sub-clause (C) below, accept the highest offer for such REO Property received from any Person that is determined to be a fair price (1) by the Special Servicer, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, or (2) by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested Person unless such offer by an Interested Person (i) is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price and (ii) is the highest offer received; provided, however, that absent an offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (A) it is the highest offer received and (B) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any REO Property pursuant hereto.

(C)              The Special Servicer shall not be obligated by either of the foregoing paragraphs or otherwise to accept the highest offer if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder, and in either case, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Serviced Companion Loans). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer if it determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder, and in either case, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Serviced Companion Loans) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations, or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable); provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer.

(D)             In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any REO Property, the Trustee shall obtain and may conclusively rely on the opinion of an Independent appraiser or other Independent expert in real estate matters retained by the Trustee in connection with making such determination. The reasonable cost of such Independent appraiser or other Independent expert shall be an expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser. The reasonable fees and costs of all Appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person and the Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to

  -238-  

 

collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person. In determining whether any offer constitutes a fair price for any REO Property, the Special Servicer or the Trustee (or, if applicable, such appraiser) shall take into account, and any appraiser or other expert in real estate matters shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the physical condition of such REO Property, the state of the local economy and the Trust’s obligation to comply with REMIC Provisions.

(ii)                                   Subject to the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trust and the related Companion Holders in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any REO Property, including the collection of all amounts payable in connection therewith. A sale of any REO Property shall be without recourse to, or representation or warranty by, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trust (except that any contract of sale and assignment and conveyance documents may contain customary warranties of title, so long as the only recourse for breach thereof is to the Trust) and, if consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trustee shall have any liability to the Trust or any Certificateholder or related Companion Holder (if applicable) with respect to the purchase price therefor accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.

(c)               Any sale of a Defaulted Loan or any REO Property shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC Provisions or authoritative interpretations thereof made or issued subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other consideration).

(d)               With respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, if the related Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan, and if the Special Servicer determines to sell the related Mortgage Loan that has become a Defaulted Loan in accordance with this Section 3.16, then the Special Servicer shall sell the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan together with such Mortgage Loan as one whole loan and shall require that all offers be submitted to the Special Servicer in writing. To the extent a determination is required to be made hereunder as to whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for a Serviced Whole Loan, such determination shall be made by the Special Servicer unless the offeror is an Interested Person and by the Trustee if the offeror is an Interested Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer will not be permitted to sell the related Mortgage Loan together with the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) if it becomes a defaulted Whole Loan without the written consent of the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (provided that such consent is not required if the holder of the Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan is the Mortgagor or an Affiliate of the Mortgagor) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan: (a) at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell such Serviced Whole Loan; (b) at least ten (10) days prior to the permitted sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for such Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, and any

  -239-  

 

documents in the servicing file reasonably requested by the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Directing Certificateholder) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale. The holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (or its representative) will be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of such Whole Loan; however, the related Mortgagor and its agents and Affiliates shall not be permitted to submit an offer at such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the holder of the related Companion Loan may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this paragraph with respect to the related Whole Loan. If the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage Loan. The Trustee shall act in a commercially reasonable manner in making such determination. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person and the Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person.

(e)               (i) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, with respect to each Serviced AB Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, the related Subordinate Companion Holder will have the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, as applicable. Such right of such Subordinate Companion Holder shall be given priority over any provision described in this Section 3.16 as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. If the related Mortgage Loan or related REO Property is purchased by such Subordinate Companion Holder, repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or otherwise ceases to be subject to this Agreement, the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan will no longer be subject to this Agreement. In addition, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, if the related Serviced AB Whole Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan, and if the Special Servicer determines to sell the related Mortgage Loan that has become a Defaulted Loan in accordance with this Section 3.16, then the Special Servicer is not required to sell the related Subordinate Companion Loan(s) together with such Mortgage Loan as one whole loan. If no Control Appraisal Period exists, the Special Servicer may not sell the Subordinate Companion Loan(s) without the prior consent of the holder of the Subordinate Companion Loan(s). If a Control Appraisal Period is continuing, the Special Servicer has the right (but not the obligation) to sell the Subordinate Companion Loan(s) without the consent of the holder of the Subordinate Companion Loan(s).

(ii)                                   Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, any mezzanine lender will have the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property, as applicable, and cure defaults relating thereto, as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(f)                Unless otherwise provided in an Intercreditor Agreement the sale of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.16 will be on a servicing released basis.

(g)               In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has the right to purchase any Companion Loan on behalf of the Trust pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall exercise such right.

Section 3.17        Additional Obligations of Master Servicer and Special Servicer. (a)  The Master Servicer shall deliver all Compensating Interest Payments (other than the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan) to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on each P&I Advance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Master Servicer shall deliver the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan to the Companion Paying Agent for deposit in the Companion Distribution Account on each P&I Advance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor.

(b)               The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to each Serviced Companion Noteholder any reports or notices required to be delivered to such Serviced Companion Noteholder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(c)               Upon the determination that a previously made Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, to the extent that the reimbursement thereof would exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on the Mortgage Loans deposited in the Collection Account and available for distribution on the next Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, each at its own option and in its sole discretion, as applicable, instead of obtaining reimbursement for the remaining amount of such Nonrecoverable Advance pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(v) immediately, as an accommodation may elect to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement for such portion of the Nonrecoverable Advance during the one month collection period ending on the then-current Determination Date, for successive one-month periods for a total period not to exceed twelve (12) months (provided that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, any such deferral exceeding six (6) months shall require, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the consent of the Directing Certificateholder), and any election to so defer or not to defer shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes such an election at its sole option and in its sole discretion to defer reimbursement with respect to all or a portion of a Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon), then such Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon) or portion thereof shall continue to be fully reimbursable in the subsequent collection period (subject, again, to the same sole option to defer; it is acknowledged that, in such a subsequent period, such Nonrecoverable Advance shall again be payable first from principal collections as described above prior to payment from other collections). In connection with a potential election by the Master Servicer or the Trustee to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof during the one month collection period

  -241-  

 

ending on the related Determination Date for any Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall further be authorized to wait for principal collections on the Mortgage Loans to be received until the end of such collection period before making its determination of whether to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof; provided, however, that if, at any time the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, elects, in its sole discretion, not to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement or otherwise determines that the reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance during a one-month collection period will exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on or in respect of Mortgage Loans deposited in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall use its reasonable efforts to give the 17g-5 Information Provider fifteen (15) days’ notice of such determination for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), unless extraordinary circumstances make such notice impractical, which shall mean that (i) the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines in its sole discretion that waiting fifteen (15) days after such a notice could jeopardize its ability to recover such Nonrecoverable Advance, (ii) changed circumstances or new or different information becomes known to the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, that could affect or cause a determination of whether any Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance or whether to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance or the determination in clause (i) above, or (iii) in the case of the Master Servicer, it has not timely received from the Trustee information required by the Master Servicer to determine whether to defer reimbursement for a Nonrecoverable Advance. If any of the circumstances described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the foregoing sentence apply, the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, shall give the 17g-5 Information Provider a notice for posting of the anticipated reimbursement as soon as reasonably practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, failure to give notice as required by the preceding or second preceding sentence shall in no way affect the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s election whether to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement or right to obtain such reimbursement as described in this Section 3.17(c). Nothing herein shall give the Master Servicer or the Trustee the right to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance to the extent of any principal collections then available in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(v). The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have no liability for any loss, liability or expenses resulting from any notice provided to the Rating Agencies contemplated by this Section 3.17(c).

The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to limit any liability that may otherwise be imposed on such Person for any failure by such Person to comply with the conditions to making such an election under this Section 3.17(c) or to comply with the terms of this Section 3.17(c) and the other provisions of this Agreement that apply once such an election, if any, has been made; provided, however, that the fact that a decision to recover such Nonrecoverable Advances over time, or not to do so, benefits some Classes of Certificateholders to the detriment of other Classes of Certificateholders shall not, with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard and/or with respect to the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), constitute a violation of any fiduciary duty to Certificateholders or any contractual obligation hereunder. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines, in its sole discretion, to fully recover the Nonrecoverable Advances immediately instead of deferring such reimbursement, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from all amounts in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date (deemed first from principal and then interest). Any such election by any such

  -242-  

 

party to refrain from reimbursing itself or obtaining reimbursement for any Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof with respect to any one or more collection periods shall not limit the accrual of interest at the Reimbursement Rate on such Nonrecoverable Advance for the period prior to the actual reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance. The Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as the case may be, agreement to defer reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advances as set forth above is an accommodation to the Certificateholders and shall not be construed as an obligation on the part of the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, or a right of the Certificateholders. Nothing herein shall be deemed to create in the Certificateholders a right to prior payment of distributions over the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, right to reimbursement for Advances (deferred or otherwise) and accrued interest thereon. In all events, the decision to defer reimbursement or to seek immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and none of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the other parties to this Agreement shall have any liability to one another or to any of the Certificateholders or any of the Companion Holders for any such election that such party makes as contemplated by this Section 3.17(c) or for any losses, damages or other adverse economic or other effects that may arise from such an election, nor shall such election constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard or any duty under this Agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall have any liability whatsoever for making an election, or refraining from making an election, that is authorized under this Section 3.17(c).

No determination by the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) to exercise its sole option to defer the reimbursement of Advances and/or interest thereon under this section shall be construed as an agreement by the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) to subordinate (in respect of realizing losses), to any Class of Certificates, such party’s right to such reimbursement during such period of deferral.

With respect to any modification or amendment of any Intercreditor Agreement related to a Serviced Whole Loan (to the extent received), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to the 17g-5 Information Provider a copy of any such modification or amendment, which the 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly post on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

(d)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), if the related loan documents permit the lender to (but do not require the lender to), at its option, prior to an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), apply amounts held in any reserve account as a prepayment or hold such amounts in a reserve account, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may not apply such amounts as a prepayment, and will instead continue to hold such amounts in the applicable reserve account, unless not applying those amounts as a prepayment would be a violation of the Servicing Standard. Such amount may be used, if permitted under the loan documents, to defease the loan, or may be used to prepay the Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), or for other purpose consistent with the Servicing Standard and the loan documents, upon a subsequent default.

(e)               Within one (1) Business Day after the execution of any amendment or modification of any Intercreditor Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide to the Certificate Administrator a copy of any such modification or

  -243-  

 

amendment of any Intercreditor Agreement, and such amendment or modification shall be a Reportable Event.

Section 3.18        Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents. (a)  The Special Servicer shall process waivers, modifications, amendments and consents with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and all such matters that involve a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision for all Mortgage Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) that are not Specially Serviced Loans, and the Master Servicer shall process waivers, modifications, amendments and consents with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan and does not involve a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision. Except as set forth in Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b), this Section 3.18(a), Section 3.18(d), Section 3.18(h), Section 3.18(i) and Section 6.08, but subject to any other conditions set forth thereunder (including, without limitation, the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to this subsection (a) with respect to any modification, waiver or amendment that constitutes a Special Servicer Decision or a Major Decision) and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or any Serviced Whole Loan (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, subject to the rights of the related Companion Holder, as applicable, to advise or consult with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to, or to consent to, a modification, waiver or amendment, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement), the Master Servicer shall not provide any consent or make any decision, including agreeing to any modification, waiver or amendment to the terms of a Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan unless such consent or decision constitutes a Master Servicer Decision, unless, with respect to a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan that the Master Servicer shall process such request but in all events subject to the prior written consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, which consent shall be deemed given if the Special Servicer does not respond within ten (10) days of delivery to the Special Servicer of the Master Servicer’s written recommendations and analysis, and all information that is in the Master Servicer’s possession reasonably requested by the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent, plus the time period provided to any Serviced Companion Noteholder under the related Intercreditor Agreement to consent to such Major Decision). Subject to Section 6.08, the Special Servicer may waive, modify or amend (or consent to waive, modify or amend) any provision of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan that is not in default or as to which default is not reasonably foreseeable; and provided, further, that no extension entered into pursuant to this Section 3.18(a) shall extend the Maturity Date beyond the earlier of (i) five (5) years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and (ii) in the case of a Mortgage Loan secured solely or primarily by a leasehold estate and not also the related fee interest, the date twenty (20) years or, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard giving due consideration to the remaining term of the Ground Lease, ten (10) years, prior to the expiration of such leasehold estate. If such extension would extend the Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan for more than twelve (12) months from and after the original Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan and such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable, prior to any such extension, (1) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (whichever is processing such action) shall provide the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer (as applicable), the Operating Advisor and the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing

  -244-  

 

Certificateholder, (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party), with an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if not required or permitted to be paid by the Mortgagor, to be paid as an expense of the Trust in accordance with Section 3.11(d)) that such extension would not constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and (2) subject to the Servicing Standard, (w) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, obtain the consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder, (x) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder, consult with the Directing Certificateholder and (y) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer having consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a).

In the event the Special Servicer receives no response from the Directing Certificateholder within ten (10) days following its written request for input on any required consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Directing Certificateholder, as applicable, on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Directing Certificateholder to respond shall not relieve the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, from consulting with the Directing Certificateholder on any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or an Excluded Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan. In addition, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer shall also consult with the Operating Advisor in connection with any proposed Major Decision (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the Operating Advisor after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event hereunder) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, provided that such consultation is on a non-binding basis. In the event that the Special Servicer receives no response from the Operating Advisor within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) its written request for input (which request shall include the related Major Decision Reporting Package) on any required consultation and (ii) delivery of all such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor related to the subject matter of such consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Operating Advisor to respond on any specific matters shall not relieve the Special Servicer from its obligation to consult with the Operating Advisor on any future matter with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or any other Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event, a Consultation Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.08(a) for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with any Major Decision processed by the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer will provide any final Major Decision Reporting Package prepared by it to the

  -245-  

 

Master Servicer promptly after the Directing Certificateholder’s approval of such final Major Decision Reporting Package.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the rights of the related Companion Holder to advise the Master Servicer with respect to, or consent to, such modification, waiver or amendment pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, and subject to the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to this subsection (a), the Master Servicer, with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, without the consent of or consultation with the Special Servicer or the Directing Certificateholder, may modify or amend the terms of any Non-Specially Serviced Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan in order to (i) cure any ambiguity or mistake therein or (ii) correct or supplement any provisions therein which may be inconsistent with any other provisions therein or correct any error; provided that, if the Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and/or related Serviced Companion Loan is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable, such modification or amendment would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

Subject to Section 6.08, applicable law and the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan documents, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall permit the substitution of any Mortgaged Property (or any portion thereof) for one or more other parcels of real property at any time the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan is not in default pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan documents or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable unless (i) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, obtains Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (and delivers such Rating Agency Confirmation to the Directing Certificateholder, if permitted by the applicable Rating Agency) and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) and (ii) such substitution would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) or otherwise cause an Adverse REMIC Event (and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may obtain and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor if not prohibited by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents, and if so prohibited, at the expense of the Trust) with respect thereto).

In addition, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to review and approve any calculations (including, but not limited to, debt yield and debt service coverage ratio calculations) made by the Master Servicer that would result in (i) the commencement or termination of a cash trap or lease sweep period with respect to any Mortgage Loan, (ii) the removal of a property manager of a Mortgaged Property, (iii) the allocation of casualty or condemnation Proceeds, or (iv) the release of any reserve to a Mortgagor if such release would constitute a Major Decision. In connection with the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall forward any such calculation to the Special Servicer and provide any information that the Special Servicer reasonably requests in order to recalculate and review such calculation. With respect to any such calculation, if the Special

  -246-  

 

Servicer fails to respond within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such calculation and requested information (if any) referred to above, then such calculation will be deemed to have been approved by the Special Servicer. In the event the Special Servicer disagrees with any such calculation made by the Master Servicer (including any inputs), then the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to reconcile their calculations; provided that, if the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are unable to reconcile their calculations within five (5) Business Days after identifying such disagreement, then the Special Servicer’s calculation shall control.

(b)               If the Special Servicer determines that a modification, waiver or amendment (including, without limitation, the forgiveness or deferral of interest or principal or the substitution of collateral pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and/or related Serviced Companion Loan or otherwise, the release of collateral or the pledge of additional collateral) of the terms of a Specially Serviced Loan (or any Non-Specially Serviced Loan with respect to which such determination derives from the Special Servicer’s consideration of a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision that is subject to its processing and/or consent rights pursuant to Section 3.18(a)) with respect to which a payment default or other material default has occurred or a payment default or other material default is, in the Special Servicer’s judgment, reasonably foreseeable (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Special Servicer), is reasonably likely to produce a greater (or equivalent) recovery on a net present value basis (the relevant discounting to be performed at the related Mortgage Rate) to the Trust and, if applicable, the Companion Holders, as the holders of the related Serviced Companion Loan, than liquidation of such Specially Serviced Loan, then the Special Servicer may, but is not required to, agree to a modification, waiver or amendment of such Specially Serviced Loan, subject to (v) the provisions of this Section 3.18(b) and Section 3.18(c), (w) with respect to any Major Decision, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder, with the approval of the Directing Certificateholder (or after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, upon consultation with the Directing Certificateholder) as provided in Section 6.08, (x) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, consultation with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), (y) with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, any rights of the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder to consent to such modification, waiver or amendment and (z) additionally, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the rights of the related Serviced Companion Noteholder or with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) with mezzanine debt, the rights of the related mezzanine lender, to advise or consult with the Special Servicer with respect to, or consent to, such modification, waiver or amendment, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, as applicable; provided that with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder will be required to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement and the Directing Certificateholder shall have no consent or consultation rights regarding the matter; provided, further, that in the case of any release or substitution of collateral (other than a defeasance), the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel that such release or substitution would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) or otherwise cause an Adverse REMIC Event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect

  -247-  

 

to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor (telephonically or electronically), on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions that it is processing or for which its consent is required and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

The Master Servicer, prior to taking any action with respect to any Major Decision or any Special Servicer Decision, shall refer the request to the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall process the request directly (other than any Major Decision described in subclauses (A) and (B) of clause (xiii) of the definition of “Major Decision” with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, which shall be processed by the Master Servicer subject to the consent rights of the Special Servicer). However, if the Master Servicer and Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request, the Master Servicer shall prepare and submit its written analysis and recommendation to the Special Servicer with all information that is in the Master Servicer’s possession that the Special Servicer may reasonably request in order to withhold or grant its consent, and in all cases the Special Servicer may approve or disapprove any modification, waiver or amendment that constitutes such a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision.

In connection with (i) the release of a Mortgaged Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or any portion of such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage or (ii) the taking of a Mortgaged Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or any portion of such Mortgaged Property by exercise of the power of eminent domain or condemnation, if the related Mortgage Loan documents require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to calculate (or to approve the calculation of the related Mortgagor of) the LTV Ratio of the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties or the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, for purposes of REMIC qualification of the related Mortgage Loan, then such calculation shall, unless then permitted by the REMIC Provisions, exclude the value of personal property and going concern value, if any, as determined by an appropriate third party.

If, following any such release or taking, the LTV Ratio as calculated is greater than 125%, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall require payment of principal by a “qualified amount” as determined under Revenue Procedure 2010-30 or successor provisions, unless the related Mortgagor provides an Opinion of Counsel that if such amount is not paid, the related Mortgage Loan will not fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that causes a defective obligation to be treated as a qualified mortgage).

The Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to the extent reasonably possible to cause each Specially Serviced Loan to fully amortize prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and shall not agree to a modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Specially Serviced Loan if such modification, waiver or amendment would (1) extend the Maturity Date of any such Specially Serviced Loan to a date occurring later than the earlier of (a) five (5) years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and (b) if such Specially Serviced Loan is

  -248-  

 

secured solely or primarily by a leasehold estate and not also the related fee interest, the date occurring twenty (20) years or, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard giving due consideration to the remaining term of the Ground Lease and, (A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party) pursuant to Section 6.08 and (B) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, after consulting with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a), ten (10) years prior to the expiration of such leasehold estate (including any options to extend such leasehold estate exercisable unilaterally by the related Mortgagor), or (2) provide for the deferral of interest unless interest accrues on the related Mortgage Loan, or Serviced Whole Loan generally at the related Mortgage Rate.

(c)               Any provision of this Section 3.18 to the contrary notwithstanding, except when a Mortgage Loan and/or Companion Loan is in default or default with respect thereto is reasonably foreseeable, no fee described in this Section 3.18 shall be collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer from a Mortgagor (or on behalf of the Mortgagor) in conjunction with any consent or any modification, waiver or amendment of a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable (unless the amount thereof is specified in the related Mortgage Note) if the collection of such fee would cause such consent, modification, waiver or amendment to be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Note within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

(d)               To the extent consistent with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the first sentence of Section 3.18(a), and Section 6.08), the Master Servicer (subject to the Special Servicer’s consent rights pursuant to Section 3.18(a) if any such waiver, modification or amendment constitutes a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision) or the Special Servicer may, consistent with the Servicing Standard, agree to any waiver, modification or amendment of a Mortgage Loan and/or Serviced Companion Loan that is not in default or as to which default is not reasonably foreseeable only if the contemplated waiver, modification or amendment (i) will not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) , (ii) cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (iii) result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund or either Trust REMIC. In making this determination, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may obtain and rely upon (and shall provide to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator if obtained) an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor or such other Person requesting such modification or, if such expense cannot be collected from the related Mortgagor or such other Person, to be paid out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a); provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall use its reasonable efforts to collect such fee from the Mortgagor or such other Person to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer may waive the payment of any Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge or the requirement that any prepayment of a Mortgage Loan be made on a Due Date, or if not made on a Due Date, be accompanied by all interest that would be due on the next Due Date with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan.

(e)               Subject to Section 3.18(c), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each may, as a condition to its granting any request by a Mortgagor for consent, modification

  -249-  

 

(including extensions), waiver or indulgence or any other matter or thing, the granting of which is within the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, discretion pursuant to the terms of the instruments evidencing or securing the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan and is permitted by the terms of this Agreement, require that such Mortgagor pay to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, as additional servicing compensation, a reasonable or customary fee, for the additional services performed in connection with such request; provided that the charging of such fee is not a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

(f)                All modifications (including extensions), waivers and amendments of the Mortgage Loans and/or Companion Loans entered into pursuant to this Section 3.18 shall be in writing, signed by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and the related Mortgagor (and by any guarantor of the related Mortgage Loan, if such guarantor’s signature is required by the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard).

(g)               With respect to any modification, waiver, amendment or consent for which it is responsible for processing pursuant to Section 3.18, the Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor (during an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, other than following the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), the applicable Companion Holder (unless, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred, if applicable), the related Mortgage Loan Seller (if such Mortgage Loan Seller is not the Master Servicer or Sub-Servicer of such Mortgage Loan or the Directing Certificateholder) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) in writing of any modification, waiver, amendment or consent (in each case, after it is finalized and executed) of any term of any Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan that is modified, waived or amended and the date thereof. With respect to any modification, waiver, amendment or consent (in each case, after it is finalized and executed) for which it is responsible for processing pursuant to this Section 3.18, the Master Servicer shall provide written notice of any such modification, waiver, amendment or consent to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer (and, unless a Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer shall forward any such notice to the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to an Excluded Loan)), the applicable Companion Holder (unless, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred, if applicable) and the related Mortgage Loan Seller (so long as such Mortgage Loan Seller is not the Master Servicer or Sub-Servicer of such Mortgage Loan or the Directing Certificateholder) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)). The party responsible for delivering notice shall deliver to the Custodian with a copy to the Master Servicer (if such notice is being delivered by the Special Servicer) for deposit in the related Mortgage File, an original counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver, amendment or consent, promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) following the execution thereof, with a copy to the applicable Companion Holder, if any. Following receipt of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, delivery of the aforesaid modification, waiver, amendment or consent to the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Administrator shall

  -250-  

 

forward a copy thereof to each Holder of a Certificate (other than the Class R Certificates). With respect to the processing of any modification, waiver or consent related to any Mortgagor incurring Additional Secured Debt or mezzanine debt, the Special Servicer (if the Special Servicer processes such modification, waiver or consent pursuant to Section 3.18(a)) shall, on or before the later of (i) 3:00 p.m. on the related P&I Advance Date and (ii) five (5) Business Days immediately following the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, obtaining actual knowledge of the incurrence of such Additional Secured Debt or mezzanine debt, deliver notice of the Mortgagor’s incurrence of such debt, substantially in the form of Exhibit KK, to !nacctsecnotifications@computershare.com and an Additional Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit EE. The notice contemplated in the preceding sentence shall set forth, to the extent the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, has the requisite information or can reasonably obtain such information, (1) the amount of Additional Secured Debt that was incurred in the related Collection Period, (2) the total Debt Service Coverage Ratio calculated on the basis of such Mortgage Loan and Additional Secured Debt, and (3) the aggregate LTV Ratio calculated on the basis of such Mortgage Loan and Additional Secured Debt. In the event that either (i) the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package is amended to include such information set forth above, in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and the Master Servicer confirms with the Certificate Administrator that such amended CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package enables the Certificate Administrator to include such information on Form 10-D in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Administrator, or (ii) the Trust is no longer subject to the Exchange Act, the additional report in the form of Exhibit KK shall no longer be required hereunder. From time to time, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator may agree on a different delivery time and format for the information set forth in this paragraph.

(h)               The Master Servicer shall process all defeasance transactions, subject to the Special Servicer’s consent with respect to any Major Decision relating to a defeasance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not permit (or, with regard to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, take any act in furtherance of) the substitution of any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan unless such defeasance complies with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) and the Master Servicer has received (i) replacement collateral consisting of government securities within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), which satisfies the requirements of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents, in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the related Mortgage Loan (or defeased portion thereof) when due, (ii) a certificate of an Independent certified public accountant to the effect that such substituted property will provide cash flows sufficient to meet all payments of interest and principal (including payments at maturity) on such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan in compliance with the requirements of the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, (iii) one or more Opinions of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor) to the effect that the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, will have a first priority perfected security interest in such substituted Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that, to the extent consistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the related Mortgagor shall pay the cost of any such opinion as a condition to granting such defeasance, (iv) to the extent consistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Mortgagor shall establish a single purpose entity to act as a successor Mortgagor, if so required by the Rating Agencies, (v) to the extent permissible under the related

  -251-  

 

Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to require the related Mortgagor to pay all costs of such defeasance, including but not limited to the cost of maintaining any successor Mortgagor, and (vi) to the extent permissible under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall obtain, at the expense of the related Mortgagor, Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25); provided, further, however, that no such confirmation from any Rating Agency shall be required to the extent that the Master Servicer has delivered a defeasance certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit U hereto for any Mortgage Loan that (together with any other Crossed Underlying Loans in a Crossed Mortgage Loan Group with such Mortgage Loan) is: (i) a Mortgage Loan with a Cut-off Date Balance less than $35,000,000, (ii) a Mortgage Loan that represents less than 5% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Balance of all Mortgage Loans, and (iii) a Mortgage Loan that is not one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans by Stated Principal Balance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that requiring the Mortgagor to pay for the items specified in clauses (ii), (iv) and (v) in the preceding sentence would be inconsistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents, such reasonable costs shall be paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller as and to the extent set forth in the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

(i)                 Notwithstanding anything herein or in the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, to the contrary, the Master Servicer may permit the substitution of “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) for any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable (or any portion thereof), in lieu of the defeasance collateral specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents or Serviced Whole Loan documents, as applicable; provided that such substitution is consistent with the Servicing Standard and the Master Servicer (subject to the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to Section 3.18(a) with respect to any such action that constitutes a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision) reasonably determines that allowing their use would not cause a default or event of default to become reasonably foreseeable and the Master Servicer receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable or Companion Loan documents or otherwise as a Trust Fund expense) to the effect that such use would not be and would not constitute a “significant modification” of such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and would not otherwise constitute an Adverse REMIC Event with respect to either Trust REMIC; and provided, further, that the requirements set forth in Section 3.18(h) (including receipt of any Rating Agency Confirmation) are satisfied; and provided, further, that such securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, or the Master Servicer shall obtain Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in

  -252-  

 

the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans identified as Mortgage Loan numbers 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 11, 14, 16, 18, 21, 27, 28, 29 and 31 on the Mortgage Loan Schedule for which KeyBank, SMC, AREF2, GACC, BSPRT, 3650 or CREFI is the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and that are subject to defeasance, the related Mortgage Loan Seller has transferred to a third party or has retained on behalf of itself or an Affiliate the right to establish or designate the successor borrower and/or to purchase or cause to be purchased the related defeasance collateral (any such right or obligation, the “Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations”). In the event the Master Servicer receives notice of a defeasance request with respect to a Mortgage Loan for which KeyBank, SMC, AREF2, GACC, BSPRT, 3650 or CREFI is the related Mortgage Loan Seller, which such Mortgage Loan provides for Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations in the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall provide, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such notice, written notice of such defeasance request to KeyBank, SMC, AREF2, GACC, BSPRT, 3650 or CREFI, as applicable. Until such time as the related Mortgage Loan Seller provides the Master Servicer with written notice to the contrary, the notice of a defeasance of a Mortgage Loan with Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations as to which KeyBank, SMC, AREF2, GACC, BSPRT, 3650 or CREFI is the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall be delivered to the related Mortgage Loan Seller at its respective notice address provided under Section 13.05. With respect to any such Mortgage Loan that is subject to defeasance, if the successor borrower is not designated or formed by the related Mortgage Loan Seller or any Affiliate or successor thereto, the successor borrower shall be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

(j)                 If required under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents or if otherwise consistent with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Defeasance Accounts”), which shall be Eligible Accounts, into which all payments received by the Master Servicer from any defeasance collateral substituted for any Mortgaged Property shall be deposited and retained, and shall administer such Defeasance Accounts in accordance with the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Master Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Defeasance Account for a period in excess of ninety (90) days, unless such amounts are reinvested by the Master Servicer in “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii). To the extent not required or permitted to be placed in a separate account, the Master Servicer shall deposit all payments received by it from defeasance collateral substituted for any Mortgaged Property into the Collection Account and treat any such payments as payments made on the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan in advance of its Due Date in accordance with clause (a)(i) of the definition of “Available Funds” and not as a prepayment of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Collection Account for a period in excess of 365 days (or 366 days in the case of a leap year).

(k)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall, unless it has received Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating

  -253-  

 

agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) (the cost of which shall be paid by the related Mortgagor, if so allowed by the terms of the related loan documents and otherwise paid out of general collections) grant or accept any consent, approval or direction regarding the termination of the related property manager or the designation of any replacement property manager, with respect to any Mortgaged Property that secures a Mortgage Loan that (i) is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans by Stated Principal Balance or (ii) has an unpaid principal balance that is at least equal to five percent (5%) of the then-aggregate principal balance of all Mortgage Loans or $35,000,000.

(l)                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in connection with any modification, waiver, consent or amendment in connection with any defeasance transaction contemplated in subclause (B) of clause (xiii) of the definition of “Major Decision”, the Master Servicer shall not approve any such modification, waiver or amendment or consent thereto without first having received a copy of an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer that such modification, waiver, consent or amendment will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

(m)             Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall modify any Mortgage Loan into an AB Modified Loan unless the documents evidencing such modification provide that all payments on the junior or “B” portion of such AB Modified Loan (including interest, principal and other amounts) shall only be payable after the point in time at which all interest and principal on the senior or “A” portion of such AB Modified Loan shall have been paid in full and such senior or “A” portion shall no longer be outstanding; provided, however, that interest and other amounts in respect of such junior or “B” portion may accrue prior to such point in time.

Section 3.19        Transfer of Servicing Between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer; Recordkeeping; Asset Status Report. (a) Upon determining that a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall promptly give notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder thereof, and the Master Servicer shall deliver the related Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Special Servicer and concurrently provide a copy of such Servicing File, exclusive of all Privileged Communications, to the Operating Advisor. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information, documents and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan, either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise available to the Master Servicer without undue burden or expense, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its functions hereunder with respect thereto. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the occurrence of each related Servicing Transfer Event (or, in the case of clauses (viii) or (ix) of the definition of “Servicing

  -254-  

 

Transfer Event”, within five (5) Business Days of receiving notice from the Special Servicer of such Servicing Transfer Event when the Special Servicer makes the determination) and in any event shall continue to act as Master Servicer and administrator of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan until the Special Servicer has commenced the servicing of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, and ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event or (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder, a copy of the notice of such Servicing Transfer Event provided by the Master Servicer to the Special Servicer, or by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer, pursuant to this Section 3.19. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to each Controlling Class Certificateholder a copy of the notice of such Servicing Transfer Event provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.19.

Upon determining that a Specially Serviced Loan (other than an REO Loan) has become current and has remained current for three consecutive Periodic Payments (provided that (i) no additional Servicing Transfer Event is foreseeable in the reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, and (ii) for such purposes taking into account any modification or amendment of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan), and that no other Servicing Transfer Event is continuing with respect thereto, the Special Servicer shall immediately give notice thereof to the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (unless with respect to an AB Subordinate Companion Loan an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred) and ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder and shall return the related Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Master Servicer (or copies thereof if copies only were delivered to the Special Servicer) and upon giving such notice, and returning such Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer’s obligation to service such Corrected Loan shall terminate and the obligations of the Master Servicer to service and administer such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan shall recommence.

(b)               In servicing any Specially Serviced Loans and Serviced Companion Loans, the Special Servicer will provide to the Custodian originals of documents included within the definition of “Mortgage File” for inclusion in the related Mortgage File to the extent within its possession (with a copy of each such original to the Master Servicer), and provide the Master Servicer with copies of any additional related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan information including correspondence with the related Mortgagor.

(c)               Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.12(c), the Master Servicer shall maintain ongoing payment records with respect to each of the Specially Serviced Loans, Serviced Companion Loans and REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and shall provide the Special Servicer with any information in its possession with respect to such records to enable the Special Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement; provided that this statement shall not be construed to require the Master Servicer to produce any additional reports.

  -255-  

 

(d)               No later than (i) sixty (60) days after a Servicing Transfer Event for a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan and (ii) prior to taking action with respect to any Major Decision (or making a determination not to take action with respect to a Major Decision) with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan (the “Initial Delivery Date”), the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format a report (the “Asset Status Report”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan and related Companion Loan, if applicable, and the related Mortgaged Property to the Master Servicer and the Directing Certificateholder (but with respect to the Directing Certificateholder, only in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than (A) any Excluded Loan or (B) any Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence of an AB Control Appraisal Period, and in any event prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event). Subsequent to the issuance of a Final Asset Status Report to the extent that during the course of the resolution of such Specially Serviced Loan material changes in the strategy reflected in the initial Final Asset Status Report (or subsequent Final Asset Status Reports) are necessary to reflect the then current circumstances and recommendation as to how the Specially Serviced Loan might be returned to performing status or otherwise liquidated in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall prepare one or more additional Asset Status Reports with respect to such Specially Serviced Loan (each such report, once finalized and approved, a “Subsequent Asset Status Report”). The Special Servicer shall deliver each Subsequent Asset Status Report and Final Asset Status Report in electronic form to the Master Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (but with respect to the Directing Certificateholder, only in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than (A) any Excluded Loan as to such party or (B) any Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence of an AB Control Appraisal Period, and in any event prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), any related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder prior to an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, the Operating Advisor (but, other than with respect to an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event and, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, only to the extent that such Whole Loan is subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) and, with respect to any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the related Companion Holder or, to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the master servicer of such Other Securitization into which the related Serviced Companion Loan has been sold; the Special Servicer shall also deliver a summary of each Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Administrator shall post the summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer shall not make any Asset Status Reports available to any Certificateholders on its website. None of the parties to this Agreement shall provide any Asset Status Report or any Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator. Further, the Certificate Administrator shall not request any Asset Status Report or Final Asset Status Report from the Master Servicer. Such Asset Status Report shall set forth the following information to the extent reasonably determinable based on the information that was delivered to the Special Servicer in connection with the transfer of servicing pursuant to the Servicing Transfer Event:

(iii)                                the most current rent roll, and income or operating statement available for the related Mortgaged Property;

(iv)                               (A) the Special Servicer’s recommendations on how such Specially Serviced Loan might be returned to performing status (including the modification of a monetary term, and any workout, restructure or debt forgiveness) and returned to the Master Servicer for regular servicing or foreclosed or otherwise realized upon (including any proposed sale of a Defaulted Loan or REO Property), (B) a description of any such proposed or taken actions, and (C) the alternative courses of action that were or are being considered by the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed or taken actions;

(v)                                  the status of any foreclosure actions or other proceedings undertaken with respect to the Specially Serviced Loan, any proposed workouts and the status of any negotiations with respect to such workouts, and an assessment of the likelihood of additional defaults under the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan;

(x)                                    such other information as the Special Servicer deems relevant in light of the Servicing Standard.

A summary of each Final Asset Status Report shall be provided to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee.

If within ten (10) days (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) days) of receiving an

Asset Status Report, the Directing Certificateholder does not disapprove such Asset Status Report in writing (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) days), or if the Special Servicer makes a determination, in accordance with the Servicing Standard that the disapproval by the Directing Certificateholder (communicated to the Special Servicer within ten (10) days) is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan), the Special Servicer shall implement the recommended action as outlined in such Asset Status Report; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may not take any action that is contrary to applicable law, the Servicing Standard or the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents. If, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder disapproves such Asset Status Report within ten (10) days (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) days) of receipt and the Special Servicer has not made the affirmative determination described above, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report and deliver a new Asset Status Report as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after such disapproval, to the Master Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, only prior to the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and during an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan), the Operating Advisor (but only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)); provided, however, that, if the Special Servicer determines that emergency action is necessary to protect the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Certificateholders and any related Serviced Companion Noteholder, or if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer may take actions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property before the expiration of the ten (10) day period (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) day period) if the Special Servicer reasonably determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that failure to take such actions before the expiration of the ten (10) day period (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) day period) would materially and adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (if applicable) and the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort, if no Control Termination Event is continuing and other than if an Excluded Loan is involved, to contact the Directing Certificateholder. With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report as described above in this Section 3.19(d) until the Directing Certificateholder (or, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of a AB Control Appraisal Period and to the extent required by the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, the holder of the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan) shall fail to disapprove such revised Asset Status Report in writing within ten (10) days (or, in the case of an Asset Status Report prepared prior to making a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) days) of receiving such revised Asset Status Report or until the Special Servicer makes a determination, in accordance

  -258-  

 

with the Servicing Standard, that the disapproval is not in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan); provided that, if the Directing Certificateholder has not approved the Asset Status Report for a period of sixty (60) Business Days following the first submission of an Asset Status Report, the Special Servicer may act upon the most recently submitted form of Asset Status Report if consistent with the Servicing Standard; and provided, however, that such Asset Status Report does not, and is not intended to be, a substitute for the approvals that are specifically required pursuant to Section 6.08. The procedures described in this paragraph are collectively referred to herein as the “Directing Certificateholder Approval Process”. Prior to the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall deliver each Final Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor following the conclusion of the Directing Certificateholder Approval Process.

The Special Servicer may, from time to time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered and implement such report; provided that such report shall have been prepared, reviewed and not rejected pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.19(d). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor (telephonically or electronically), on a non-binding basis, in connection with an Asset Status Report for an Excluded Loan which includes a Major Decision that it is processing or for which its consent is required and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

No direction or disapproval of the Directing Certificateholder hereunder or under a related Intercreditor Agreement or failure of the Directing Certificateholder to consent to or approve (including any deemed consents or approvals) any request of the Special Servicer, shall (a) require or cause the Special Servicer to violate the terms of a Specially Serviced Loan, applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, including the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to maintain the REMIC status of each Trust REMIC, or (b) result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions, or (c) expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or their respective officers, directors, members, employees or agents to any claim, suit or liability or (d) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, the Trustee’s or the Master Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

If an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing (or, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, if both an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing and an AB Control Appraisal Period is in effect), the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver each Asset Status Report prepared in connection with a Specially Serviced Loan to the Operating Advisor (and if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and such Specially Serviced Loan is not an Excluded Loan, the Directing Certificateholder). Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor’s review of a Final Asset Status Report shall only provide background information to support the Operating Advisor’s duties concerning the Special Servicer’s compliance with the Servicing Standard, and the Operating Advisor shall not provide

  -259-  

 

comments to the Special Servicer in respect of such Final Asset Status Report. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall provide comments to the Special Servicer in respect of the Asset Status Report, if any, within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) receipt of such Asset Status Report or (ii) receipt of such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor related thereto that is in the possession of the Special Servicer, and propose possible alternative courses of action to the extent it determines such alternatives to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders (including any Certificateholders that are holders of the Control Eligible Certificates), as a collective whole. The Special Servicer shall consider such non-binding alternative courses of action, if any, and any other feedback provided by the Operating Advisor (and if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and such Specially Serviced Loan is not an Excluded Loan, the Directing Certificateholder) in connection with the Special Servicer’s preparation of any Asset Status Report that is provided while an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing. The Special Servicer may revise the Asset Status Report as it deems necessary to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor on a non-binding basis (and if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and such Specially Serviced Loan is not an Excluded Loan, the Directing Certificateholder), to the extent the Special Servicer determines that the Operating Advisor’s and/or Directing Certificateholder’s input and/or recommendations are consistent with the Servicing Standard and in the best interest of the Certificateholders as a collective whole (or, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the best interest of the Certificateholders and the holders of the related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of such Companion Loan)).

Upon determining whether or not to revise any Asset Status Report to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder, the Special Servicer shall revise the Asset Status Report, if applicable (but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder), and deliver to the Operating Advisor and the Directing Certificateholder the revised Asset Status Report (until a Final Asset Status Report is issued) or provide notice that the Special Servicer has decided not to revise such Asset Status Report, as applicable. The procedures described in this and the immediately preceding paragraph are collectively referred to as the “ASR Consultation Process”.

After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Directing Certificateholder shall have no right to consent to any Asset Status Report under this Section 3.19. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder (except with respect to any Excluded Loan or a Serviced AB Whole Loan (prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period)) and, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, the Operating Advisor shall consult with the Special Servicer (telephonically or electronically) and propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback in respect of any Asset Status Report. After the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Directing Certificateholder (other than in its capacity as a Certificateholder) shall have no right to receive any Asset Status Report or otherwise consult with the Special Servicer with respect to Asset Status Reports and the Special

  -260-  

 

Servicer shall only be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor on a non-binding basis with respect to any Asset Status Report as described above. The Special Servicer may choose to revise the Asset Status Report as it deems reasonably necessary in accordance with the Servicing Standard to take into account any input and/or recommendations of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder during the applicable periods described above, but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder.

The Special Servicer shall implement the Final Asset Status Report; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may not take any action that is contrary to applicable law, the Servicing Standard or the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall follow any advice, direction or consultation provided by the Operating Advisor, any Serviced Companion Noteholder (or its representative) or the Directing Certificateholder that would require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate any applicable law, be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard or any Intercreditor Agreement, require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate provisions of this Agreement, require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement or any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, expose any Certificateholder or any party to this Agreement or their affiliates, officers, directors or agents to any claim, suit or liability, cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes or result in the imposition of “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions, or materially expand the scope of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement or any Intercreditor Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to an AB Subordinate Companion Loan, the Special Servicer shall prepare an Asset Status Report for any Serviced AB Whole Loan, upon it becoming a Specially Serviced Loan pursuant to this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, but the Directing Certificateholder will have no approval rights over any such Asset Status Report, and the consent or approval rights with respect to such Asset Status Report shall be as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(e)                                   (i) Upon receiving notice of the occurrence of the events described in clause (iv) or (ix) of the definition of Servicing Transfer Event (without regard to the 60-day or 30-day period, respectively, set forth therein), the Master Servicer shall with reasonable promptness give notice thereof, and shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information relating to the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to negotiate with the related Mortgagor. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the occurrence of each such event.

(ii)                                    After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, upon receiving notice of the occurrence of an event described in clause (iv) or (ix) of the definition of Servicing Transfer Event (without regard to the 60-day or 30-day period, respectively, set forth therein), the Master Servicer shall deliver notice thereof to

  -261-  

 

the Operating Advisor at the same time such notice is provided to the Special Servicer pursuant to clause (i) above.

(f)                Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, no later than two (2) Business Days following the establishment of a Final Asset Status Report with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan (other than any Excluded Loan), the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format to the Directing Certificateholder a draft notice that will include a draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report (which briefly summarizes such Final Asset Status Report, but shall not include any Privileged Information) (and shall deliver each Asset Status Report with respect to a Serviced AB Mortgage Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period (to the extent approved by the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder), to the Directing Certificateholder). With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, if, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such draft summary, the Directing Certificateholder approves of, or does not disapprove of such draft summary, then the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format such notice and summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b). If the Directing Certificateholder affirmatively disapproves of such summary in writing, then within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such disapproval, the Special Servicer shall revise the summary and deliver such new summary to the Directing Certificateholder until the Directing Certificateholder approves such draft summary; provided, however, that if the Directing Certificateholder has not approved of the draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report within twenty (20) Business Days of receipt of the initial draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report, then the most recent draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report delivered by the Special Servicer prior to such 20th Business Day shall be deemed to be the final summary of the Final Asset Status Report; provided, further, however, that if at any time the Special Servicer determines that any affirmative disapproval of such draft summary by the Directing Certificateholder is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan), pursuant to the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format such notice and summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) notwithstanding such disapproval. The Special Servicer shall promptly deliver (but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days following its completion) a copy of each Final Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor. The Special Servicer shall prepare a summary of any Final Asset Status Report related to any Serviced AB Whole Loan which is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period, which Final Asset Status Report has been approved or deemed approved by the holder of the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent such Intercreditor Agreement requires such approval or deemed approval), and deliver in electronic format notice of such Final Asset Status Report and the summary of such Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b).

(g)               No provision of this Section 3.19 shall require the Special Servicer to take or to refrain from taking any action because of any proposal, objection or comment by the Operating Advisor or a recommendation of the Operating Advisor or, during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder.

Section 3.20       Sub-Servicing Agreements. (a)  The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements to provide for the performance by third parties of any or all of its respective obligations hereunder; provided that the Sub-Servicing Agreement as amended or modified: (i) is consistent with this Agreement in all material respects and requires the Sub-Servicer to comply with all of the applicable conditions of this Agreement; (ii) provides that if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall for any reason no longer act in such capacity hereunder (including, without limitation, by reason of a Servicer Termination Event), the Trustee or its designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and, except to the extent they arose prior to the date of assumption, obligations of such party under such agreement, or, alternatively, may act in accordance with Section 7.02 under the circumstances described therein (subject to Section 3.20(g)); (iii) provides that the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holder (if applicable)) and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) shall be a third party beneficiary under such Sub-Servicing Agreement, but that (except to the extent the Trustee or its designee assumes the obligations of such party thereunder as contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (ii)) none of the Trust, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable (other than the Master Servicer or Special Servicer that enters into such Sub-Servicing Agreement), any successor master servicer or successor special servicer or any Certificateholder (or the related Companion Holder, if applicable) shall have any duties under such Sub-Servicing Agreement or any liabilities arising therefrom; (iv) permits any purchaser of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement with respect to such purchased Mortgage Loan at its option and without penalty; provided, however, that the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreements may only be terminated by the Trustee or its designees as contemplated by Section 3.20(g) and in such additional manner and by such other Persons as is provided in such Sub-Servicing Agreement; (v) does not permit the Sub-Servicer any direct rights of indemnification that may be satisfied out of assets of the Trust except through the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, if and only to the extent provided pursuant to Section 6.04; (vi) does not permit the Sub-Servicer to modify any Mortgage Loan unless and to the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is permitted hereunder to modify such Mortgage Loan; (vii) does not permit the Sub-Servicer to take any action constituting a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision without the consent of the Special Servicer (subject to the rights of the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to Section 6.08) or any Mortgagor requested action that is neither a Major Decision nor a Special Servicer Decision without the Master Servicer’s consent); (viii) with respect to any Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into after the Closing Date, if such Sub-Servicer is a Servicing Function Participant or an Additional Servicer, such Sub-Servicer, at the time the related Sub-Servicing Agreement is entered into, is not a Prohibited Party; (ix) provides that the Sub-Servicer shall be in default under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement and such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be terminated (following the expiration of any applicable grace period) if the Sub-Servicer fails (A) to deliver by the due date any Exchange Act reporting items required to be delivered to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Depositor under Article XI or under the Sub-Servicing Agreement or to the master servicer under any other pooling and servicing agreement that the Depositor is a party to, or (B) to perform in any material respect any of its covenants or obligations contained in the Sub-Servicing Agreement regarding creating, obtaining or delivering any Exchange Act reporting items required for any party to this Agreement to perform its obligations under Article XI or under the Exchange Act reporting items

  -263-  

 

required under any other pooling and servicing agreement that the Depositor is a party to; and (x) provides that such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be terminable if at any time the related Sub-Servicer (other than a Sub-Servicer retained by the Special Servicer) is a Risk Retention Affiliate of any Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser if such Sub-Servicer is a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2). Any successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as applicable, hereunder shall, upon becoming a successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as applicable, be assigned and may assume any Sub-Servicing Agreements from the predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be (subject to Section 3.20(g)). In addition, each Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Master Servicer may but need not provide that the obligations of the Sub-Servicer thereunder may terminate with respect to any Mortgage Loan serviced thereunder at the time such Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan; provided, however, that the Sub-Servicing Agreement may provide (if the Sub-Servicing Agreement provides for Advances by the Sub-Servicer, although it need not so provide) that the Sub-Servicer will continue to make all Advances and calculations and prepare all reports required under the Sub-Servicing Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and continue to collect its Primary Servicing Fees as if no Servicing Transfer Event had occurred and with respect to REO Properties (and the related REO Loans) as if no REO Acquisition had occurred and to render such incidental services with respect to such Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for in such Sub-Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments thereto and modifications thereof, entered into by it, in each case promptly upon its execution and delivery of such documents. References in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer include actions taken or to be taken by a Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer; and, in connection therewith, all amounts advanced by any Sub-Servicer (if the Sub-Servicing Agreement provides for Advances by the Sub-Servicer, although it need not so provide) to satisfy the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder to make Advances shall be deemed to have been advanced by the Master Servicer out of its own funds and, accordingly, in such event, such Advances shall be recoverable by such Sub-Servicer in the same manner and out of the same funds as if such Sub-Servicer were the Master Servicer, and, for so long as they are outstanding, such Advances shall accrue interest in accordance with Section 3.03(d), such interest to be allocable between the Master Servicer and such Sub-Servicer as may be provided (if at all) pursuant to the terms of the Sub-Servicing Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have received any payment when a Sub-Servicer retained by it receives such payment. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Trustee and the Depositor (and the Special Servicer shall notify the Operating Advisor) in writing promptly of the appointment by it of any Sub-Servicer, except that the Master Servicer need not provide such notice as to the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreements.

(b)               Each Sub-Servicer shall be authorized to transact business in the state or states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to the extent necessary to ensure the enforceability of the related Mortgage Loans or the compliance with its obligations under the Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s obligations, as applicable, under this Agreement.

(c)               As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer for the benefit of the Trustee, the Certificateholders, shall (at no expense to the

  -264-  

 

Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Trust) monitor the performance and enforce the obligations of each of its Sub-Servicers under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, except that the Master Servicer shall be required only to use reasonable efforts to cause any Initial Sub-Servicer engaged by the Master Servicer to comply with the requirements of Article XI. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements in accordance with their respective terms and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as is in accordance with the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall, subject to the terms of the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, have the right to remove a Sub-Servicer retained by it at any time it considers removal to be in the best interests of the Certificateholders.

(d)               In the event the Trustee or its designee becomes a successor master servicer and assumes the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under any Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer, at its expense, shall deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to such Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans and, if applicable, the Companion Loans then being serviced thereunder and an accounting of amounts collected and held on behalf of it thereunder, and otherwise use reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub-Servicing Agreement to the assuming party.

(e)               Notwithstanding the provisions of any Sub-Servicing Agreement and this Section 3.20, except to the extent provided in Article XI with respect to the obligations of any Sub-Servicer that is an Initial Sub-Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall remain obligated and responsible to the Trustee, the Master Servicer (with respect to the Special Servicer), the Special Servicer (with respect to the Master Servicer), holders of the Companion Loans serviced hereunder, the Certificateholders for the performance of each parties’ respective obligations and duties under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans for which it is responsible, and the Master Servicer shall pay the fees of any Sub-Servicer engaged by such party thereunder as and when due from its own funds. In no event shall the Trust bear any termination fee required to be paid to any Sub-Servicer as a result of such Sub-Servicer’s termination under any Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(f)                The Trustee, upon the request of the Master Servicer, shall furnish to any Sub-Servicer any documents necessary or appropriate to enable such Sub-Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under any Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(g)               Each Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide that, in the event the Trustee or any other Person becomes a successor master servicer, the Trustee or such successor master servicer shall have the right to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement with or without cause and without a fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other contrary provision in this Agreement, the Trustee and any successor master servicer shall assume (a) the Limited Subservicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024, between Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, and 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC (the “Limited Subservicing Agreement”) and (b) each Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement and (i) 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC’s rights and obligations under the Limited Subservicing Agreement and the Initial Sub-Servicer’s rights and obligations under the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement shall expressly

  -265-  

 

survive a termination of the Master Servicer’s servicing rights under this Agreement; provided that such Limited Subservicing Agreement or any such Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement has not been terminated in accordance with its provisions; (ii) any successor master servicer, including, without limitation, the Trustee (if it assumes the servicing obligations of the Master Servicer) shall be deemed to automatically assume and agree to the Limited Subservicing Agreement and the then-current Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement without further action upon becoming the successor master servicer and (iii) this Agreement may not be modified in any manner which would increase the obligations or limit the rights of 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC or the Initial Sub-Servicer, as applicable, hereunder and/or under the Limited Subservicing Agreement or the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement, as applicable, without the prior written consent of 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC or the Initial Sub-Servicer, as applicable (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(h)               With respect to Mortgage Loans subject to a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer shall, upon request (such request to be made reasonably in advance as appropriate to the circumstances surrounding such request) of the related Sub-Servicer, reasonably cooperate in delivering reports and information, including remittance information, and affording access to information to the related Sub-Servicer that would be required to be delivered or afforded, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall not enter into any Sub-Servicing Agreement which provides for the performance by third parties of any or all of its obligations herein, without, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the consent of the Directing Certificateholder, except to the extent necessary for the Special Servicer to comply with applicable regulatory requirements.

(i)                 None of the Master Servicer or any Additional Servicer shall enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a Sub-Servicer that is a Risk Retention Affiliate of a Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser if such Sub-Servicer would be a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer, absent actual knowledge to the contrary, may conclusively rely upon a representation of any Sub-Servicer that such Sub-Servicer is not a Risk Retention Affiliate of a Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser. If at any time the Master Servicer obtains actual knowledge that a Sub-Servicer it has entered into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with, is a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2) and is a Risk Retention Affiliate of a Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser, the Master Servicer shall terminate such Sub-Servicer in accordance with the related Sub-Servicing Agreement.

Section 3.21        Interest Reserve Account.(a) On the P&I Advance Date occurring in each February and in any January that occurs in a year that is not a leap year (in each case, unless the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator, in respect of the Actual/360 Mortgage Loans, shall deposit into the Interest Reserve Account, an amount equal to one (1) day’s interest on the Stated Principal Balance of the Actual/360 Mortgage Loans as of the Due Date occurring in the month preceding the month in which the P&I Advance Date occurs at the related Net Mortgage Rate, to the extent a full Periodic Payment or P&I Advance is made in respect thereof (all amounts so deposited in any consecutive February and January, “Withheld Amounts”).

  -266-  

 

(b)               On each P&I Advance Date occurring in March (or February, if the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw, from the Interest Reserve Account an amount equal to the Withheld Amounts from the preceding January (if applicable) and February, if any, and deposit such amount into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account.

Section 3.22        Directing Certificateholder and Operating Advisor Contact with Master Servicer and Special Servicer. Within a reasonable time upon request from the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and no more often than on a monthly basis (or, with respect to communications between the Directing Certificateholder and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, on a more frequent basis that is commercially reasonable as mutually agreed to between the Directing Certificateholder and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable), each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, without charge, make a knowledgeable Servicing Officer via telephone available to verbally answer questions from (a) the Directing Certificateholder ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) and (b) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor (with respect to the Special Servicer only), regarding the performance and servicing of the Mortgage Loans and/or REO Properties for which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is responsible.

Section 3.23        Controlling Class Certificateholders and Directing Certificateholder; Certain Rights and Powers of Directing Certificateholder. (a) Each Controlling Class Certificateholder is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and to notify the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor of the Transfer of any Certificate of a Controlling Class by delivering a notice to each such Person substantially in the form of Exhibit NN attached hereto, the selection of a Directing Certificateholder or the resignation or removal thereof. The Directing Certificateholder (other than the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to notify the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor when such Certificateholder is appointed Directing Certificateholder and when it is removed or resigns. To the extent there is only one Controlling Class Certificateholder and it is also the Special Servicer, it shall be the Directing Certificateholder. In any case, such notification may be delivered via electronic mail.

On the Closing Date, the initial Directing Certificateholder (other than the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) shall execute and deliver a certification to all parties to this Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1G to this Agreement. Upon the resignation or removal of the existing Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder), any successor directing certificateholder shall also deliver a certification to all parties to this Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1G to this Agreement prior to being recognized as the new Directing Certificateholder.

(b)               Once a Directing Certificateholder has been selected, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner, if applicable) shall be

  -267-  

 

entitled to rely on such selection unless the Controlling Class Certificateholders entitled to appoint the Directing Certificateholder, by Certificate Balance, or such Directing Certificateholder shall have notified the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Controlling Class Certificateholder, in writing, of the resignation of such Directing Certificateholder or the selection of a new Directing Certificateholder. In the event that (i) the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor receives written notice from a majority of the Controlling Class Certificateholders that a Directing Certificateholder is no longer designated and (ii) the Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class (or a representative thereof) becomes the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to the proviso of the definition of “Directing Certificateholder”, then the Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class (or its representative) shall provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and notify the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor that it is the new Directing Certificateholder; provided that the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to rely on the written notification provided by the purported Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class without independently verifying that such Controlling Class Certificateholder actually owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class. The foregoing provisions shall not be applicable to the Directing Certificateholder that is a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder.

(c)               Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity of the Controlling Class Certificateholder and the Directing Certificateholder.

(d)               In the event that no Directing Certificateholder has been appointed or identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has attempted to obtain such information from the Certificate Administrator and no such entity has been identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, then until such time as the new Directing Certificateholder is identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have no duty to consult with, provide notice to, or seek the approval or consent of any such Directing Certificateholder.

(e)               Upon request, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to the Depositor, Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder, a list of each Controlling Class Certificateholder as reflected in the Certificate Register, including names and addresses. In addition to the foregoing, within five (5) Business Days of receiving notice of the selection of a new Directing Certificateholder or the existence of a new Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, 3650 shall be the initial Directing Certificateholder (but not a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) and shall remain so until a successor is appointed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or until a Consultation Termination Event occurs and is continuing.

  -268-  

 

Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the preceding sentence with respect to the identity of the Directing Certificateholder.

(f)                If the Certificate Administrator determines that a Class of Book-Entry Certificates is the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the related Certificateholders of such Class (through the Depository) of the Class becoming the Controlling Class.

(g)               Each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Certificates, that: (i) the Directing Certificateholder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Certificates; (ii) the Directing Certificateholder may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class or in its own interest; (iii) the Directing Certificateholder does not have any liability or duties to the Holders of any Class of Certificates other than the Controlling Class (or in the case of a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder has no liabilities or duties to the Controlling Class or the Holders of any Class of Certificates); (iv) the Directing Certificateholder may take actions that favor interests of the Holders of one or more Classes including the Controlling Class or itself over the interests of the Holders of one or more other Classes of Certificates; and (v) the Directing Certificateholder shall have no liability whatsoever (other than to a Controlling Class Certificateholder; provided that a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder shall have no such liability) for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Directing Certificateholder or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal of the Directing Certificateholder for having so acted.

(h)               All requirements of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to provide notices, reports, statements or other information (including the access to information on a website) to the Directing Certificateholder contained in this Agreement shall also apply to each Companion Holder with respect to information relating to the related Serviced AB Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable; provided, however, that nothing in this subsection (h) shall in any way eliminate the obligation to deliver any information required to be delivered under the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(i)                 Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity and contact information of the Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Directing Certificateholder and any Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder.

(j)                 With respect to a Serviced Whole Loan and any approval and consent rights in this Agreement with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall exercise such rights in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(k)               The Certificate Registrar shall determine which Class of Certificates is the then-current Controlling Class within two (2) Business Days of a request from the Master Servicer,

  -269-  

 

the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, or any Certificateholder and provide such information to the requesting party.

(l)                 At any time that the Controlling Class Certificateholder is the holder of a majority of the Class F-RR Certificates and the Class F-RR Certificates are the Controlling Class, it may waive its right (a) to appoint the Directing Certificateholder and (b) to exercise any of the Directing Certificateholder’s rights under this Agreement by irrevocable written notice delivered to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator (which shall be via email to trustadministrationgroup@computershare.com), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, during such time as a Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event is in existence solely as a result of the operation of clause (ii) of the definition of Control Termination Event and clause (ii) of the definition of Consultation Termination Event, such Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event shall be deemed to no longer be in existence and have not occurred with respect to any unaffiliated third party to whom the Controlling Class Certificateholder that irrevocably waived its right to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Certificateholder has sold or transferred all or a portion of its interest in the Class F-RR Certificates if such unaffiliated third party holds the majority of the Controlling Class after giving effect to such transfer (the “Non-Waiving Successor”). Following any such sale or transfer, the Non-Waiving Successor shall again have the rights of the Controlling Class Certificateholder as set forth herein (including the rights to appoint a Directing Certificateholder or cause the exercise of the rights of the Directing Certificateholder) without regard to any prior waiver by the predecessor Controlling Class Certificateholder. The Non-Waiving Successor shall also have the right to irrevocably waive its right to appoint the Directing Certificateholder and to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Certificateholder. The Non-Waiving Successor shall also have the right to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Certificateholder. No Non-Waiving Successor described above shall have any consent rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan that became a Specially Serviced Loan prior to the sale or transfer of the Class F-RR Certificates to the Non-Waiving Successor and had not also become a Corrected Loan prior to such sale or transfer until such time as such Mortgage Loan becomes a Corrected Loan.

(m)             Promptly upon its determination of a change in the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall (i) include on its statement made available pursuant to Section 4.02(a) of this Agreement the identity of the new Controlling Class and (ii) provide to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor notice of such event and the identity and contact information of the new Controlling Class Certificateholder (the cost of obtaining such information from DTC being an expense of the Trust). The Certificate Administrator shall notify the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer within ten (10) Business Days of the existence or cessation of (i) any Control Termination Event, (ii) any Consultation Termination Event or (iii) any Operating Advisor Consultation Event. Upon the Certificate Administrator’s determination that a Control Termination Event, a Consultation Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred or is terminated, the Certificate Administrator shall, within ten (10) Business Days, post a “special notice” on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to this provision.

In the event that a Control Termination Event has occurred due to a reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class F-RR Certificates (taking into account the application of any

  -270-  

 

Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of such Class in accordance with Section 4.05(a)) to less than 25% of the Original Certificate Balance thereof, such special notice shall state “A Control Termination Event has occurred due to the reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class F-RR Certificates to less than 25% of the Original Certificate Balance thereof.”

In the event that a Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event has occurred due to the irrevocable waiver by a Class F-RR Certificateholder, who has become the Controlling Class Certificateholder, of its right to appoint a Directing Certificateholder or to exercise any of the rights of the Controlling Class Certificateholder, such special notice shall state “A Control Termination Event and a Consultation Termination Event has occurred due to the irrevocable waiver by the Controlling Class Certificateholder of its rights as Controlling Class Certificateholder.”

In the event that a Consultation Termination Event has occurred due to the reduction of each Class of Control Eligible Certificates below 25% of its Original Certificate Balance, in each case without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts, such special notice shall state: “A Consultation Termination Event has occurred because no Class of Control Eligible Certificates exists where such Class’s aggregate Certificate Balance is at least equal to 25% of the Original Certificate Balance of that Class, in each case without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts.”

In the event of any transfer of a Class F-RR Certificate, and upon notice to the Certificate Administrator in the form of Exhibit NN that results in a termination of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event, such “special notice” shall state: “A Consultation Termination Event or a Control Termination Event has been terminated and is no longer in effect due to a Transfer of a majority interest of the Controlling Class Certificates to an unaffiliated third party which has terminated any waiver by the prior Holder.”

In the event that an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred due to the reduction of the aggregate Certificate Balance of the HRR Certificates to 25% or below of their aggregate Original Certificate Balance, taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts, such special notice shall state: “An Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred because the aggregate Certificate Balance of the HRR Certificates has been reduced to 25% or below of their aggregate Original Certificate Balance.”

With respect to any Mortgage Loan determined to be an Excluded Loan, none of the Directing Certificateholder or any Controlling Class Certificateholder shall have any consent or consultation rights with respect to the servicing of such Excluded Loan and a Control Termination Event and Consultation Termination Event shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Excluded Loan.

Section 3.24        Intercreditor Agreements. (a) Each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer acknowledges and agrees that each Serviced Whole Loan being serviced under this Agreement and each Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt is subject to the terms and provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement and each agrees to service each such Serviced Whole Loan, and each Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt in accordance with the related

  -271-  

 

Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, including, without limitation, effecting distributions and allocating reimbursement of expenses in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement and, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, the related Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the terms and provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement do not affect the right of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor to receive Servicing Fees (without taking into account any portion thereof that constitutes a primary servicing fee), Trustee Fees, Certificate Administrator Fees or Operating Advisor Fees that are payable hereunder solely from amounts allocable to and payable from collections on the related Mortgage Loan as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contrary in this Agreement, each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer agrees not to take any action with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, or a Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt or the related Mortgaged Property without the prior consent of the related Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, to the extent that the related Intercreditor Agreement provides that such Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, is required or permitted to consent to such action. Each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer acknowledges and agrees that each Companion Holder and each mezzanine lender or its respective designee has the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement to the extent provided for therein. Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer further acknowledges and agrees that any Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder will have the right to replace the Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan, to the extent provided for herein and in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(b)               Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability for any cost, claim or damage that arises from any entitlement in favor of a Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender under the related Intercreditor Agreement or conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of any Intercreditor Agreement that may otherwise require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to abide by any instruction or direction of a Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to comply with any instruction or direction the compliance with which requires an Advance that constitutes or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. In no event shall any expense arising from compliance with an Intercreditor Agreement constitute an expense to be borne by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer for its own account without reimbursement. In no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer be required to consult with or obtain the consent of any Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender unless such Companion Holder or mezzanine lender has delivered notice of its identity and contact information to each of the parties to this Agreement (upon which notice each of the parties to this Agreement shall be conclusively entitled to rely). As of the Closing Date, the contact information for the Companion Holders and mezzanine lenders is as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. In no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, be required to consult with or obtain the consent of a new Directing Certificateholder or a new Controlling Class Certificateholder unless the Certificate Administrator has delivered notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as required under Section 3.23(e) or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, have actual knowledge of the identity and contact information of a new Directing Certificateholder or a new Controlling Class Certificateholder.

  -272-  

 

(c)               No direction or disapproval of the Companion Holders or any mezzanine lender shall (a) require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate the terms of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, including the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to maintain the REMIC status of each Trust REMIC, (b) result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions or (c) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, Trustee’s, the Certificate Administrator’s or the Master Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

(d)               With respect to any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, notwithstanding any rights the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder hereunder may have to consult with respect to any action or other matter with respect to the servicing of such Companion Loan, to the extent the related Intercreditor Agreement provides that such right is exercisable by the related Companion Holder or is exercisable in conjunction with any related Companion Holder, the Directing Certificateholder shall not be permitted to exercise such right or, to the extent provided in the related Intercreditor Agreement, shall be required to exercise such right in conjunction with the related Companion Holder, as applicable (except to the extent that the Directing Certificateholder is the related Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder). Additionally, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall consult, seek the approval or obtain the consent of the holder of any Serviced Companion Loan with respect to any matters with respect to the servicing of such Companion Loan to the extent required under related Intercreditor Agreement and shall not take such actions requiring consent of the related Companion Holder without such consent. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall deliver reports and notices to the related Companion Holder as required under the Intercreditor Agreement.

(e)               Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (a)(i) with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan the Special Servicer (with respect to any Major Decision (other than with respect to actions described in subclauses (A) or (B) of clause (xiii) of the definition of “Major Decisions”, which the Master Servicer shall process without first seeking the agreement of the Special Servicer) or Special Servicer Decision, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that, in connection with any modification, waiver or amendment that constitutes a Major Decision (other than with respect to actions described in subclauses (A) or (B) of clause (xiii) of the definition of “Major Decisions”, which the Master Servicer shall process without first seeking the agreement of the Special Servicer) or Special Servicer Decision, the Master Servicer shall process and determine whether to consent, subject to the consent of the Special Servicer, to such modification, waiver or amendment) or the Master Servicer (with respect to any modification, waiver or amendment that does not constitute a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision), or (ii) with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be required (i) to the extent the required notice address has been provided, to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Controlling Class Certificateholder pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, to the related Companion Holder, within the same time frame it is required to provide to the Controlling Class Certificateholder (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Controlling Class

  -273-  

 

Certificateholder under this Agreement due to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event or the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) to consult with any related Companion Holder on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such related Companion Holder requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such related Companion Holder; provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to such related Companion Holder by the Special Servicer of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Special Servicer shall no longer be obligated to consult with such related Companion Holder, whether or not such related Companion Holder has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless the Special Servicer proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the consultation rights of the related Companion Holder set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Special Servicer may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Special Servicer determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holder. In no event shall the Special Servicer be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by the related Companion Holder.

(f)                Each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Holder shall have the right to attend (in person or telephonically, in the discretion of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be) annual meetings with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer at the offices of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the related Whole Loan are discussed.

(g)               With respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall not modify, waive or amend the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement such that the monthly remittance to the holder of the related Companion Loan is required earlier than 2 Business Days after receipt by the Master Servicer of the related Periodic Payment without the consent of the Master Servicer.

(h)               To the extent not otherwise expressly included herein, any provisions required to be included herein pursuant to any Intercreditor Agreement for a Whole Loan are deemed incorporated herein by reference, and the parties hereto shall comply with those provisions as if set forth herein in full.

(i)                 With respect to the Serviced AB Whole Loan, notwithstanding any rights the Directing Certificateholder hereunder may have to consult with respect to any action or other matter with respect to the servicing of such Serviced AB Whole Loan, to the extent the related Intercreditor Agreement provides that such right is exercisable by the related Subordinate Companion Holder or its representative or is exercisable in conjunction with the related Subordinate Companion Holder, then the Directing Certificateholder shall not be permitted to

  -274-  

 

exercise such right. Additionally, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall consult with, seek the approval of, or obtain the consent of the Subordinate Companion Holder or its representative with respect to any matters with respect to the servicing of the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan to the extent required under the related Intercreditor Agreement and shall not take such actions requiring consent of or consultation with such Subordinate Companion Holder or its representative without such consent or consultation (or deemed consent or consultation). In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall deliver information, reports and notices to the Subordinate Companion Holder or its representative as and to the extent required under the related Intercreditor Agreement; provided that if such Subordinate Companion Holder is a Borrower Party with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, then such Subordinate Companion Holder shall not be entitled to receive any information that would constitute Excluded Information if such AB Whole Loan were an Excluded Loan. Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer further acknowledges and agrees that any AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder will have the right to exercise the rights of the Directing Certificateholder under this Agreement to the extent provided for in, and subject to the terms of, the related Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 3.25        Rating Agency Confirmation. (a) Notwithstanding the terms of any related Mortgage Loan documents or other provisions of this Agreement, if any action under any Mortgage Loan documents or this Agreement requires Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action, if the party (the “RAC Requesting Party”) attempting and/or required to obtain such Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency has made a request to any Rating Agency for such Rating Agency Confirmation and, within ten (10) Business Days of the Rating Agency Confirmation request being posted to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, such Rating Agency has not replied to such request or has responded in a manner that indicates that such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then such RAC Requesting Party shall be required to confirm (through direct communication and not by posting any confirmation on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website) that the applicable Rating Agency has received the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and, if it has not, promptly request the related Rating Agency Confirmation again (which may be through direct communication). The circumstances described in the preceding sentence are referred to in this Agreement as a “RAC No-Response Scenario”. Once the RAC Requesting Party has sent a request for a Rating Agency Confirmation to the 17g-5 Information Provider, such RAC Requesting Party may, but shall not be obligated to send such request directly to the Rating Agencies in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 13.10(d).

If there is no response to such Rating Agency Confirmation request within five (5) Business Days of such second request in a RAC No-Response Scenario or if such Rating Agency has responded in a manner that indicates such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then (x) with respect to any condition in any Mortgage Loan document requiring such Rating Agency Confirmation or with respect to any other matter under this Agreement relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than as set forth in clause (y) below), the requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) with respect to such Rating Agency and the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, if the Master Servicer is processing the action requiring Rating Agency Confirmation) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, REO Mortgage Loans and Non-Specially

  -275-  

 

Serviced Loans if the Special Servicer is processing the action requiring Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such Non-Specially Serviced Loans), as the case may be, may then take such action if the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, if the Master Servicer is processing the action requiring Rating Agency Confirmation) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, REO Mortgage Loans and Non-Specially Serviced Loans if the Special Servicer is processing the action requiring Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such Non-Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, confirms its original determination (made prior to making such request) that taking the action with respect to which it requested the Rating Agency Confirmation would still be consistent with the Servicing Standard, and (y) with respect to a replacement of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, such condition shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) if (i) the replacement master servicer or special servicer is listed on S&P’s Select Servicer List as a “U.S. Commercial Mortgage Master Servicer” or “U.S. Commercial Mortgage Special Servicer,” as applicable, if S&P is the non-responding Rating Agency, (ii) the replacement master servicer or special servicer is rated at least “CMS3” (in the case of the master servicer) or “CSS3” (in the case of the special servicer), if Fitch is the non-responding Rating Agency or (iii) KBRA has not publicly cited servicing concerns with respect to the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer as the sole or a material factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status” in contemplation of a ratings downgrade or withdrawal) of securities in any other commercial mortgage-backed securitization transaction serviced by such replacement master servicer or special servicer prior to the time of determination, if KBRA is the non-responding Rating Agency.

Any Rating Agency Confirmation request made by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, shall be made in writing, which writing shall contain a cover page indicating the nature of the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and shall contain all back-up material necessary for the Rating Agency to process such request. Such written Rating Agency Confirmation request shall be provided in electronic format to the 17g-5 Information Provider, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such request on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

Promptly following the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination to take any action discussed in this Section 3.25(a) following any requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation being deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide electronic written notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider of the action taken for the particular item at such time, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.25, for purposes of the provisions of any Mortgage Loan document relating to defeasance (including without limitation the type of collateral acceptable for use as defeasance collateral) or release or substitution of any collateral, any Rating Agency Confirmation requirement in the Mortgage Loan documents for which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer would have been permitted to waive obtaining or to make a determination with respect to such Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to Section 3.25(a) shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist).

  -276-  

 

(c)               For all other matters or actions not specifically discussed in Section 3.25(a) above, the applicable RAC Requesting Party shall deliver Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency.

Section 3.26        The Operating Advisor. (a)  The Operating Advisor shall review (i) the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan (as provided in Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b), Section 3.18(a), Section 3.18(b), Section 3.19(d), Section 3.26 and Section 6.08) and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to Major Decisions relating to any Mortgage Loan, (ii) all reports by the Special Servicer made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and that are relevant to the Operating Advisor’s obligations hereunder and (iii) each Asset Status Report (after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and (iv) each Final Asset Status Report delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer. The Operating Advisor shall perform its duties hereunder in accordance with the Operating Advisor Standard. Furthermore, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligation or responsibility at any time to review the actions of the Master Servicer for compliance with the Servicing Standard, and the Operating Advisor will not be required to consider such Master Servicer actions in connection with any Operating Advisor Annual Report.

(b)               The Operating Advisor and its Affiliates shall keep confidential any information appropriately labeled “Privileged Information” received from the Special Servicer or Directing Certificateholder in connection with the Directing Certificateholder’s exercise of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with the review and/or approval of any Asset Status Report or Final Asset Status Report), subject to any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree requiring the disclosure of such Privileged Information. Subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement related to Privileged Information, the Operating Advisor agrees that it shall use information received from the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement solely for purposes of complying with its duties and obligations hereunder.

(c)               (i) Based on the Operating Advisor’s review of (1) any assessment of compliance report, attestation report, and other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer or made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website during the prior calendar year, (2) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, any related Final Asset Status Report or approved or deemed approved Major Decision Reporting Package provided to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer, and (3) after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, any Asset Status Report and any Major Decision Reporting Package provided to the Operating Advisor with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Operating Advisor shall (but only if any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan was a Specially Serviced Loan at any time during the prior calendar year or if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event occurred during the prior calendar year) deliver to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider within one hundred twenty (120) days of the end of the prior calendar year, an annual report (the “Operating Advisor Annual Report”), substantially in the form of Exhibit V (which form may be modified or altered as to either its organization or content by the Operating

  -277-  

 

Advisor, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement including, without limitation, provisions herein relating to Privileged Information; provided, however, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in the Operating Advisor Annual Report contravene any provision of this Agreement), setting forth whether the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer is operating in compliance with the Servicing Standard with respect to its performance of its duties pursuant to this Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Loans (and, after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, also with respect to Major Decisions on Non-Specially Serviced Loans) during the prior calendar year on a “trust-level basis” and identifying (1) which, if any, standards with which the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, the Special Servicer has failed to comply and (2) any material deviations from the Special Servicer’s obligations hereunder with respect to the resolution or liquidation of any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property (other than with respect to any REO Property related to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan); provided, further, however, that in the event the Special Servicer is replaced, the Operating Advisor Annual Report shall only relate to the special servicer that was acting as Special Servicer as of December 31 in the prior calendar year and is continuing in such capacity through the date of such Operating Advisor Annual Report; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall prepare a separate Operating Advisor Annual Report relating to each Excluded Special Servicer and any Excluded Special Servicer Loan(s) serviced by such Excluded Special Servicer. In preparing any Operating Advisor Annual Report, the Operating Advisor shall not be required to report on instances of non-compliance with, or deviation from, the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement that the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, to be immaterial. Subject to the restrictions in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.26(c), each such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall (A) identify any material deviations (i) from the Servicing Standard and (ii) from the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement with respect to the resolution or liquidation of Specially Serviced Loans or REO Properties that the Special Servicer is responsible for servicing under this Agreement (other than with respect to any REO Property related to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and (B) comply with all of the confidentiality requirements described in this Agreement regarding Privileged Information (subject to any permitted exceptions). In preparing any Operating Advisor Annual Report, the Operating Advisor shall not be required to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion. Such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b)) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)), with a copy of the final Operating Advisor Annual Report to the Special Servicer; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall be given an opportunity to review the Operating Advisor Annual Report at least five (5) Business Days prior to its delivery to the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider. The Operating Advisor shall have no obligation to adopt any comments to the Operating Advisor Annual Report that are provided by the Special Servicer. Only as used in this Section 3.26 in connection with the Operating Advisor Annual Report, the term “trust-level basis” refers to the Special Servicer’s performance of its duties with respect to the resolution and liquidation of Specially Serviced Loans (and, after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, also with respect to Major Decisions on Non-Specially Serviced Loans),

  -278-  

 

taking into account the Special Servicer’s specific duties under this Agreement as well as the extent to which those duties were performed in accordance with the Servicing Standard, with reasonable consideration by the Operating Advisor of any assessment of compliance report, attestation report, Major Decision Reporting Package, Asset Status Report (during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), Final Asset Status Report and any other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer (other than any communications between the Directing Certificateholder and the Special Servicer that would be Privileged Information) pursuant to this Agreement.

(ii)                                   In the event the Operating Advisor’s ability to perform its obligations in respect of the Operating Advisor Annual Report is limited or prohibited due to the failure of a party hereto to timely deliver information required to be delivered to the Operating Advisor or because such information is inaccurate or incomplete, the Operating Advisor shall set forth such limitations or prohibitions in the related Operating Advisor Annual Report, and the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from such limitations or prohibitions. The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the accuracy and completeness of any information it is provided without liability for any such reliance hereunder. In the event a lack of access to Privileged Information limits or prohibits the Operating Advisor from performing its duties under this Agreement, the Operating Advisor shall set forth any such limitations or prohibitions in the related Operating Advisor Annual Report, and the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from its lack of access to Privileged Information.

(d)               [RESERVED].

(e)               (i) With respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan, after the calculation has been finalized (and, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, prior to the utilization by the Special Servicer) of any of the calculations related to (i) Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer, (ii) Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer, (iii) Collateral Deficiency Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer or (iv) net present value in accordance with Section 1.02(iv) calculated by the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall forward such calculations, together with any supporting material or additional information necessary in support thereof (including such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor to confirm the mathematical accuracy of such calculations, but not including any Privileged Communications), to the Operating Advisor promptly, but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after preparing such calculations, and the Operating Advisor shall promptly, but no later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of such calculations and any supporting or additional materials, recalculate and review for accuracy and consistency with this Agreement the mathematical calculations and the corresponding application of the non-discretionary portion of the applicable formulas required to be utilized in connection with any such calculation.

(ii)                                    In connection with this Section 3.26(e), in the event the Operating Advisor does not agree with the mathematical calculations of the Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount, Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (in each case, as calculated by the Special Servicer) or net present value or the application of the applicable

  -279-  

 

non-discretionary portions of the formula required to be utilized for such calculation, the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer shall consult with each other in order to resolve any material inaccuracy in the mathematical calculations or the application of the non-discretionary portions of the related formula in arriving at those mathematical calculations or any disagreement within five (5) Business Days of delivery of such calculations. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Special Servicer and provide any information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer necessary for the calculation of the Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount, Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount and in the Master Servicer’s possession or reasonably obtainable by the Master Servicer. In the event the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer are not able to resolve such inaccuracies or disagreement prior to the end of such five (5) Business Day period, the Operating Advisor shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of such disagreement and the Certificate Administrator shall examine the calculations and supporting materials provided by the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer and determine which calculation is to apply and shall provide such parties prompt written notice of its determination.

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor’s review shall be limited to an after-the-action review of any assessment of compliance, attestation report, Major Decision Reporting Package relating to a Specially Serviced Loan, Asset Status Report, Final Asset Status Report and other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer or made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website during the prior calendar year (together with any additional information and material reviewed by the Operating Advisor), and, therefore, it shall have no specific involvement with respect to collateral substitutions, assignments, workouts, modifications, consents, waivers, lockbox management, Insurance Policies, borrower substitutions, lease changes, additional borrower debt, defeasances, property management changes, releases from escrow, assumptions and other similar actions that the Special Servicer may perform under this Agreement and shall have no obligations at any time with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. In addition, with respect to the Operating Advisor’s review of net present value, Collateral Deficiency Amounts, Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount or Appraisal Reduction Amount calculations as described above, the Operating Advisor’s recalculation shall not take into account the reasonableness of Special Servicer’s property and Mortgagor performance assumptions or other similar discretionary portions of the net present value, Collateral Deficiency Amounts and Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount calculation.

(g)               The Operating Advisor and its Affiliates shall keep all information appropriately labeled as “Privileged Information” confidential and shall not, without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and (for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing) the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Non-Serviced Whole Loan and other than any Excluded Loan) disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Certificateholders other than the Directing Certificateholder), other than (1) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information, (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception or (3) where necessary to support specific findings or conclusions concerning allegations of deviations from the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s

  -280-  

 

obligations under this Agreement (i) in the Operating Advisor Annual Report or (ii) in connection with a recommendation by the Operating Advisor to replace the Special Servicer. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Operating Advisor with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and, unless a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Non-Serviced Whole Loan or any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder) other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. In addition and for the avoidance of doubt, while the Operating Advisor may serve in a similar capacity with respect to Other Securitizations that involve the same parties or borrower involved in this securitization, the knowledge of the employees performing operating advisor functions for such Other Securitizations shall not be imputed to the employees of the Operating Advisor involved in this securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall be permitted to share Privileged Information with its Affiliates and any subcontractors of the Operating Advisor that agree in writing to be bound by the same confidentiality provisions applicable to the Operating Advisor.

(h)               Subject to the requirements of confidentiality imposed on the Operating Advisor herein (including without limitation in respect of Privileged Information), the Operating Advisor shall respond to Inquiries proposed by Privileged Persons from time to time in accordance with the terms of Section 4.07(a).

(i)                 As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to receive the Operating Advisor Fee on each Remittance Date with respect to each Mortgage Loan and each REO Loan. As to each Mortgage Loan and each REO Loan, the Operating Advisor Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Operating Advisor Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on the related Mortgage Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed.

The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to reimbursement of any Operating Advisor Expenses provided for pursuant to Section 6.04(a) and/or Section 6.04(b), such amounts to be reimbursed from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account as provided by Section 3.05(a). Each successor operating advisor shall be required to acknowledge and agree to the terms of the preceding sentence.

In addition, the Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable to the Operating Advisor with respect to each Major Decision for which the Operating Advisor has consultation obligations hereunder. The Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable from funds on deposit in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.05(a)(ii) of this Agreement, but, with respect to the period when the outstanding Certificate Balances of the Control Eligible Certificates have not been reduced to zero as a result of the allocation of Realized Losses to such Certificates, only to the extent such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee is actually received from the related Mortgagor. When the Operating Advisor has consultation obligations with respect to a Major Decision under this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,

  -281-  

 

shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect the applicable Operating Advisor Consulting Fee from the related Mortgagor in connection with such Major Decision, and only to the extent not prohibited by the related Mortgage Loan documents. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, may waive or reduce the amount of any Operating Advisor Consulting Fee payable by the related Mortgagor if it determines that such full or partial waiver is in accordance with the Servicing Standard, but in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer take any enforcement action with respect to the collection of such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee other than requests for collection; provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult, on a non-binding basis, with the Operating Advisor prior to any such waiver or reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor will have no obligations or consultation rights in its capacity as operating advisor with respect to: (i) any Non-Serviced Whole Loan or any related REO Property, except in limited circumstances or (ii) any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of both an AB Control Appraisal Period and a Control Termination Event; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall not be entitled to an Operating Advisor Consulting Fee with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan.

(j)                 After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Operating Advisor may be removed upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of Classes to which such Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts are allocable) requesting a vote to replace the Operating Advisor with a replacement Operating Advisor selected by such Certificateholders (provided that the proposed replacement Operating Advisor is an Eligible Operating Advisor), (ii) payment by such requesting Holders to the Certificate Administrator of all reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote and (iii) receipt by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (which confirmations will be obtained by the Certificate Administrator at the expense of such Holders and will not constitute an additional expense of the Trust). The Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders of such request by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b), and concurrently by mail, and conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard. Upon the vote or written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 75% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of Classes to which such Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts are allocable), the Trustee shall immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including accrued and unpaid compensation) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination)) by prior written notice to the Operating Advisor, and the proposed successor operating advisor will be appointed.

(k)               After the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Termination Event, the Trustee may, and upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of the Classes of Certificates), the Trustee shall promptly terminate the Operating Advisor for cause and appoint a replacement Operating

  -282-  

 

Advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor; provided that no such termination shall be effective until a successor operating advisor has been appointed and has assumed all of the obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement. No such termination shall terminate, change, reduce, or otherwise modify the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor that accrued prior to such termination, including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement, and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination). The Trustee may rely on a certification by the replacement Operating Advisor that it is an Eligible Operating Advisor. Upon any termination of the Operating Advisor and appointment of a successor to the Operating Advisor, the Trustee shall, as soon as possible, be required to give written notice of the termination and appointment to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the 17g-5 Information Provider (for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website), the Depositor, the Directing Certificateholder, any Companion Loan holder and the Certificateholders.

(l)                 The Holders of Certificates representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights affected by any Operating Advisor Termination Event hereunder may waive such Operating Advisor Termination Event within twenty (20) days of the receipt of notice from the Trustee of the occurrence of such Operating Advisor Termination Event. Upon any such waiver of an Operating Advisor Termination Event, such Operating Advisor Termination Event shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. Upon any such waiver of an Operating Advisor Termination Event by Certificateholders, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with enforcement action taken with respect to such Operating Advisor Termination Event prior to such waiver from the Trust.

(m)             Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder shall have the right to consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, to the identity of any replacement Operating Advisor appointed pursuant to this Section 3.26; provided, further, that such consent will be deemed to have been granted if no objection is made within ten (10) Business Days following the Directing Certificateholder’s receipt of the request for consent and, if granted or deemed granted, such consent cannot thereafter be revoked or withdrawn.

(n)               The Operating Advisor may resign from its obligations and duties hereby imposed on it (a) upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Directing Certificateholder, if applicable, and (b) upon the appointment of, and the acceptance of such appointment by, a successor operating advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor and receipt by the Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency. If no successor operating advisor has been appointed and has accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days of receipt by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Directing Certificateholder of the resigning Operating Advisor’s notice of resignation, the resigning Operating Advisor may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor operating advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor. No such resignation by the Operating Advisor shall become effective until the replacement Operating Advisor shall have assumed the resigning Operating Advisor’s responsibilities and obligations. The resigning Operating Advisor shall pay all costs

  -283-  

 

and expenses (including costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) associated with a transfer of its duties pursuant to this Section 3.26.

(o)               [RESERVED].

(p)               In the event the Operating Advisor resigns or is otherwise terminated for any reason it shall remain entitled to any accrued and unpaid Operating Advisor Fees and Operating Advisor Consulting Fees and reimbursement of accrued and unpaid Operating Advisor Expenses pursuant to Section 3.26(i) and shall also remain entitled to any rights of indemnification provided hereunder.

(q)               The parties hereto agree, and the Certificateholders by their acceptance of their Certificates shall be deemed to have agreed, that (i) subject to Section 6.04, the Operating Advisor shall have no liability to any Certificateholder for any actions taken or for refraining from taking any actions under this Agreement, (ii) the Operating Advisor shall act solely as a contracting party to the extent set forth in this Agreement, (iii) the Operating Advisor shall have no (A) fiduciary duty, or (B) other duty except with respect to its specific obligations under this Agreement, and shall have no duty or liability to any particular Class of Certificates or particular Certificateholders or any third party, and (iv) the Operating Advisor does not constitute an “investment adviser” within the meaning of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended or a “broker” or “dealer” within the meaning of the Exchange Act.

(r)                Neither the Operating Advisor nor any of its Affiliates shall make any investment in any Class of Certificates; provided, however, that such prohibition shall not apply to (i) riskless principal transactions effected by a broker-dealer Affiliate of the Operating Advisor or (ii) investments by an Affiliate of the Operating Advisor if the Operating Advisor and such Affiliate maintain policies and procedures that (A) segregate personnel involved in the activities of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement from personnel involved in such Affiliate’s investment activities and (B) prevent such Affiliate and its personnel from gaining access to information regarding the Trust and the Operating Advisor and its personnel from gaining access to such Affiliate’s information regarding its investment activities.

(s)                The Operating Advisor shall at all times be an Eligible Operating Advisor and if the Operating Advisor ceases to be an Eligible Operating Advisor, the Operating Advisor shall immediately resign under Section 3.26(n) of this Agreement and the Trustee shall appoint a successor operating advisor subject to and in accordance with this Section 3.26. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee is unable to find a successor operating advisor within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Operating Advisor, the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement.

(t)                 The Operating Advisor may delegate its duties to agents or Subcontractors to the extent such agents or Subcontractors satisfy clauses (c), (d) and (f) of the definition of “Eligible Operating Advisor” and so long as the related agreements or arrangements with such agents or Subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Agreement related to the Operating Advisor’s duties and obligations; provided that no agent or Subcontractor may (i) be affiliated with a Sponsor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates or (ii) have been paid any fees, compensation or other remuneration by an Underwriter, the Master

  -284-  

 

Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with due diligence or other services with respect to any Mortgage Loan prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Operating Advisor shall remain obligated and primarily liable for its obligations hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability or related obligation or liability by virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as its agents or Subcontractor to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Operating Advisor alone were performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with any agent or Subcontractor providing for indemnification of the Operating Advisor by such agent or Subcontractor, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(u)               With respect to the determination of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, or has terminated, each of the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor is entitled to rely solely on its receipt from the Certificate Administrator of notice thereof pursuant to Section 3.23(m), and, with respect to any obligations of the Operating Advisor that are performed only after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligation to perform any such duties until the receipt of such notice or actual knowledge of the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event.

Section 3.27        Companion Paying Agent. (a) With respect to each of the Serviced Companion Loans, the Master Servicer shall be the Companion Paying Agent hereunder. The Companion Paying Agent undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement.

(b)               No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Companion Paying Agent from liability for its negligent failure to act, bad faith or its own willful misfeasance; provided, however, that the duties and obligations of the Companion Paying Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement. The Companion Paying Agent shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Companion Paying Agent. In the absence of bad faith on the part of the Companion Paying Agent, the Companion Paying Agent may conclusively rely, as to the truth and correctness of the statements or conclusions expressed therein, upon any resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instrument furnished to the Companion Paying Agent by any Person and which on their face do not contradict the requirements of this Agreement.

(c)               In the case of each of the Serviced Companion Loans, upon the resignation or removal of the Master Servicer pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement, the Master Servicer, as the Companion Paying Agent, shall be deemed simultaneously to resign or be removed.

(d)               This Section 3.27 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Companion Paying Agent, as regards to rights accrued prior to such resignation or removal.

Section 3.28       Serviced Companion Noteholder Register. The Companion Paying Agent shall maintain a register (the “Serviced Companion Noteholder Register”) with respect to each Serviced Companion Loan on which it will record the names and address of, and wire transfer instructions for, the Serviced Companion Noteholders from time to time, to the extent such information is provided in writing to it by each Serviced Companion Noteholder. The initial Serviced Companion Noteholders, along with their respective name and address, are listed on Exhibit S hereto. In the event a Serviced Companion Noteholder transfers a Serviced Companion Loan without notice to the Companion Paying Agent, the Companion Paying Agent shall have no liability for any misdirected payment in such Serviced Companion Loan and shall have no obligation to recover and redirect such payment.

The Companion Paying Agent shall promptly provide the name and address of any Serviced Companion Noteholder to any party hereto or any successor Serviced Companion Noteholder upon written request and any such Person may, without further investigation, conclusively rely upon such information. The Companion Paying Agent shall have no liability to any Person for the provision of any such name and address.

For the avoidance of doubt: (x) any notices or information required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement by any party hereto to a Serviced Companion Noteholder with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan that has been included in an Other Securitization shall be provided to the Other Servicer under the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement and (y) any notices, reports or other information required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement by any party hereto to a holder of a Non-Serviced Companion Loan shall be provided to the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer under the related Non-Serviced PSA.

(a) In the event that any of the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer shall be replaced in accordance with the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall acknowledge its successor as the successor to the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be.

(b)               If any of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Master Servicer receives notice from a Rating Agency that the Master Servicer is no longer an “approved” master servicer by any of the Rating Agencies rating the Certificates, then the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly notify each Non-Serviced Master Servicer of the same.

(c)               In connection with the securitization of each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (in each case, only while it is a Serviced Companion Loan), upon the request of (and at the expense of) the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (or its designee), each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Serviced Companion Noteholder in attempting to cause the related Mortgagor to provide information relating to such Whole Loan and the related notes, and that such holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, for inclusion in any disclosure document(s) relating to such Other Securitization.

(d)               In connection with the sale of any Non-Serviced Whole Loan by any Non-Serviced Special Servicer, upon receipt of any notices or materials required to be furnished by the Non-Serviced Special Servicer to the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement, the Special Servicer shall, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, forward such materials to the Directing Certificateholder for its consent, if such consent is required. The Special Servicer may (with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) waive any timing or delivery requirements related to such sale to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(e)               With respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Directing Certificateholder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, or the Special Servicer, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, shall be entitled to exercise any consultation rights held by the holder of such Mortgage Loan in its capacity as a “Non-Controlling Note Holder” (or similar term identified in the related Intercreditor Agreement) as and to the extent provided in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 3.31        Resignation Upon Prohibited Risk Retention Affiliation. 

Under the Risk Retention Rule, any Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser is prohibited from being Risk Retention Affiliated with, among other persons, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer. As long as the prohibition exists under the Risk Retention Rule, upon the occurrence of (i) a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer or a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, obtaining actual knowledge that the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, is or has become Risk Retention Affiliated with or a Risk Retention Affiliate of a Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser (in such case, an “Impermissible TPP Affiliate”), (ii) the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee receiving written notice by any other party to this Agreement, the Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser, any Sponsor or any Underwriter or Initial Purchaser that the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, is or has become an Impermissible TPP Affiliate, or (iii) the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer obtaining actual knowledge that it is or has become a Risk Retention Affiliate of or Risk Retention Affiliated with any Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser or any other party to this Agreement (other than the Operating Advisor and Asset Representations Reviewer) (such Operating Advisor and Asset Representations Reviewer, together with an Impermissible TPP Affiliate, an “Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate”), then, in each case, such Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate shall promptly notify the Sponsors and the other parties to this Agreement and resign in accordance with Section 3.26, Section 6.05, Section 7.03, Section 8.07 or Section 12.03, as applicable.

The provisions of the foregoing paragraph will not apply if the Depositor has determined, following a modification, waiver or amendment to, or repeal of, the Risk Retention Rules, that the foregoing affiliations are not prohibited. The Depositor shall provide written notice

  -289-  

 

of such determination to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer, provided however, the Depositor shall have no obligation to monitor the Risk Retention Rules to determine if a modification, waiver, amendment or repeal has occurred.

Section 3.32        Litigation Control.

(a)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and other than any Excluded Special Servicer Loan), any Serviced Companion Loan or any related REO Loan or related REO Property, the Special Servicer shall, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, direct, manage, prosecute and/or defend any action brought by a Mortgagor, guarantor, other obligor on the related Mortgage Note or any Affiliates thereof (each a “Borrower-Related Party”) against the Trust (including, without limitation, any action in which both the Trust and the Master Servicer are named) and/or the Special Servicer or any predecessor master servicer or special servicer, and represent the interests of the Trust in any litigation relating to the rights and obligations (or the enforcement of obligations) of the Trust, or of the Mortgagor or other Borrower-Related Party under the related Mortgage Loan documents, or with respect to the related Mortgaged Property or other collateral securing such Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan), or otherwise with respect to the enforcement of the obligations of a Borrower-Related Party under the related Mortgage Loan documents (“Trust-Related Litigation”). In the event that the Master Servicer is named in any Trust-Related Litigation but the Special Servicer is not named in such Trust-Related Litigation (regardless of whether the Trust is named in such Trust-Related Litigation), the Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer of such litigation as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event no later than within ten (10) Business Days of the Master Servicer receiving service of such Trust-Related Litigation.

(b)               With respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan and to the extent the Master Servicer is named in the Trust-Related Litigation, and neither the Trust nor the Special Servicer is named, in order to effectuate the role of the Special Servicer as contemplated by Section 3.32(a) above, the Master Servicer shall (i) provide quarterly (unless requested in writing from time to time on a more frequent basis) status reports to the Special Servicer regarding such Trust-Related Litigation; provided, however, nothing in this requirement to deliver a status report shall require or obligate the Master Servicer to provide privileged or confidential information; (ii) use reasonable efforts to have the Trust replace the Master Servicer as the appropriate party to the lawsuit; and (iii) so long as the Master Servicer remains a party to such lawsuit, consult with, and take direction from, the Special Servicer with respect to material decisions and material monetary settlements related to the interests of the Trust in such Trust-Related Litigation, including but not limited to the selection of counsel. If and/or when the Trust and/or the Special Servicer are named, the Special Servicer shall assume control of the Trust-Related Litigation as provided in Section 3.32(a) above, the Master Servicer shall no longer have the reporting obligations set forth above and the Special Servicer’s selection of counsel shall be subject to the consent of the Master Servicer which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Further, if there are claims against the Master Servicer, the Trust, and the Special Servicer, each party at the request of any other such party shall enter into a joint defense agreement in accordance with Section 3.32(h) below.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall not (i) undertake (or direct the Master Servicer to undertake) any material settlement of any Trust-Related Litigation or (ii) initiate any material

  -290-  

 

Trust-Related Litigation unless and until (A) it has notified in writing the Directing Certificateholder (prior to a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to an Excluded Loan) (to the extent the identity of the Directing Certificateholder is actually known to the Special Servicer; provided that the Special Servicer shall make due inquiry of the Certificate Administrator as to the identity of the Directing Certificateholder) and the related holder of any Serviced Companion Loan (if such matter affects such related Serviced Companion Loan) (to the extent the identity of the holder of such Serviced Companion Loan is actually known to the Special Servicer) and (B) the Directing Certificateholder (prior to a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to an Excluded Loan) has not objected in writing within five (5) Business Days of having been notified thereof and having been provided with all information that the Directing Certificateholder has reasonably requested with respect thereto promptly following its receipt of the subject notice (it being understood and agreed that if such written objection has not been received by the Special Servicer within such five (5) Business Day period, then the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed to have approved the taking of such action); provided that, if the Special Servicer determines (consistent with the Servicing Standard) that immediate action is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders and any related Serviced Companion Noteholder, the Special Servicer may take such action without waiting for the Directing Certificateholder’s response.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.32, neither the Special Servicer nor the Master Servicer shall follow any advice, direction or consultation provided by the Directing Certificateholder (or any party to this Agreement) that would require or cause the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate any applicable law, be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, require or cause the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate provisions of this Agreement, require or cause the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, expose any Certificateholder or any party to this Agreement or their Affiliates, officers, directors or agents to any claim, suit or liability, cause either Trust REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes or result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions or materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, the Master Servicer’s, the Certificate Administrator’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, responsibilities under this Agreement.

(e)               Notwithstanding the right of the Special Servicer provided under this Section 3.32 to represent the interests of the Trust in Trust Related Litigation, the Master Servicer shall retain the right at all times to make determinations relating to material and direct claims against the Master Servicer where a settlement by the Special Servicer has not otherwise been resolved pursuant to the terms of subsection (g) below, including but not limited to the right to engage separate counsel, to make settlement decisions and to appear in any proceeding on its own behalf. The cost related to or incurred in connection with exercising such rights shall be subject to indemnification as and to the extent provided in this Agreement.

(f)                Further, nothing in this Section 3.32 shall require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to take or fail to take any action which, in the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s reasonable judgment, may (i) cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes, result in the imposition of “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the Code, or otherwise result in a violation of the REMIC Provisions, (ii)

cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate the Servicing Standard or the express provisions of any other Section of this Agreement, (iii) result in a violation of applicable law or the Mortgage Loan documents or (iv) subject the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to liability or materially expand the scope of the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement.

(g)               Neither the Special Servicer nor the Master Servicer shall settle on behalf of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, any Trust-Related Litigation without such party’s consent unless: (i) such settlement does not contain or require any admission of liability, wrongdoing or consent to injunctive relief on the part of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer are each fully released, (ii) the cost of such settlement or any resulting judgment is and shall be paid by the Trust pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and payment of such cost or judgment is provided for in this Agreement, (iii) each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer is and shall be indemnified as and to the extent provided in this Agreement for all costs and expenses incurred in defending and settling the Trust-Related Litigation and for any judgment, (iv) any such action taken by the Master Servicer at the direction of the Special Servicer shall be deemed (as to the Master Servicer) to be in compliance with the Servicing Standard and (v) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, provides the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with assurance reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as to the items in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv).

(h)               In the event both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or Trust are named in Trust-Related Litigation, to the extent that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer deem it appropriate, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall (i) use reasonable efforts to enter into a joint defense agreement and (ii) otherwise cooperate with each other to afford the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer the rights afforded to such party in this Section 3.32.

(i)                 This Section 3.32 shall not apply in the event, and to the extent, that the Special Servicer authorizes the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer agrees (both authority and agreement to be in writing), to make certain decisions or control certain Trust-Related Litigation on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

(j)                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the requirements of the final sentence in Section 3.01(b) and subject to the power of attorney (i) in the event that any action, suit, litigation or proceeding names the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, in its individual capacity, or in the event that any judgment is rendered against the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, in its individual capacity, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, upon prior written notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may retain counsel and appear in any such proceeding on its own behalf in order to protect and represent its interests (but not to otherwise direct, manage or prosecute such litigation or claim); (ii) in the event of any action, suit, litigation or proceeding, other than an action, suit, litigation or proceeding relating to the enforcement of the obligations of a Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor under the related Mortgage Loan documents, or otherwise relating to one or more Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged Properties, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, without the prior written consent of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, (A) initiate

References to Mortgage Loans (including references to Mortgagors, guarantors, obligors and Mortgaged Properties) in this Section 3.32 shall mean Serviced Mortgage Loans.

(k)               Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Section 3.32, this Section 3.32 shall not apply to any Trust-Related Litigation and shall have no force and effect with respect thereto, in the event that either (i) at the time such Trust-Related Litigation is commenced or at any time during the continuance of such Trust-Related Litigation, 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC is no longer the Special Servicer with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or related Whole Loan or has received notice of its replacement as Special Servicer with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or related Whole Loan whether or not such replacement is effective or (ii) the Depositor, any Sponsor, any Mortgage Loan Seller, any Placement Agent, any Underwriter, or any of their respective affiliates is an adverse party (with respect to the Trust, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) in such Trust-Related Litigation or holds any interest which is adverse to the Trust, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by each of the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Depositor, Sponsor, Mortgage Loan Seller, Placement Agent, Underwriter, or affiliate that is such a party or holds such interest. In each case under clauses (k)(i) and (ii) above, the applicable party listed above shall use reasonable efforts to provide notice of such occurrence to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer relating to any Trust-Related Litigation shall be limited solely to the representation of the Trust and itself, separate and apart from the interests of any other party thereto. For the further avoidance of doubt, in such circumstance described in this paragraph, the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer and the

Special Servicer relating to litigation shall be as otherwise set forth with respect to servicing in this Agreement.

Section 3.33        Delivery of Excluded Information to the Certificate Administrator. Any Excluded Information that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor identifies and delivers to the Certificate Administrator for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator via e-mail (or such other electronic means as is mutually acceptable to the parties) in one or more separate files labeled “Excluded Information” followed by the applicable loan name and loan file to CCTCMBSExcludedInformation@computershare.com.

Nothing set forth in this Agreement shall prohibit the Directing Certificateholder or any Controlling Class Certificateholder from receiving, requesting or reviewing any Excluded Information relating to any Excluded Loan with respect to which the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder is not a Borrower Party and, if such Excluded Information is not available to such Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Class Certificateholder on the Certificate Administrator’s Website on account of it constituting Excluded Information, such Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Class Certificateholder that is not a Borrower Party with respect to the related Excluded Loan shall be permitted to reasonably request and obtain such information in accordance with Section 4.02(f) of this Agreement, and each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may require and rely on such certifications and other reasonable information prior to releasing any such information.

Section 3.34        Certain Matters with Respect to Joint Mortgage Loans.

(a)               If a Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan (a “Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller”) repurchases, or substitutes for, the Mortgage Note(s) (as such term is defined in this Section 3.34(a)) (a “Repurchased Note”) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that it sold to the Depositor, but the other Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan does not repurchase, or substitute for, the Mortgage Note(s) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that it sold to the Depositor, the provisions of this Section 3.34 shall apply prior to the adoption, pursuant to Section 13.01(l), of any amendment to this Agreement that provides otherwise. Each Mortgage Loan Seller of a Joint Mortgage Loan has agreed pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that the terms set forth in this Section 3.34 with respect to the servicing and administration of such Joint Mortgage Loan shall apply if one or more of the Mortgage Notes related to such Joint Mortgage Loan has been repurchased or, by way of

  -294-  

 

substitution, otherwise removed from the Trust and at least one other Mortgage Note related to such Joint Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust until such time as all of the Mortgage Notes related to such Joint Mortgage Loan are no longer included in the Trust. For purposes of this Section 3.34, Section 13.01(l) and Section 13.08(a) only, “Mortgage Note” shall mean with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, each original promissory note that collectively represents the Mortgage Note (as defined in Article I) with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and shall not be a collective reference to such promissory notes.

(b)               Custody of and record title under the Mortgage Loan documents with respect to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan shall be held exclusively by the Custodian as provided under this Agreement or, with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Non-Serviced Custodian as provided under the related Non-Serviced PSA, except that the Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall hold and retain title to its original Repurchased Note(s) and any related endorsements thereof.

(i)                                        All of the Mortgage Notes with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Mortgage Note shall have priority or preference over any other portion of the other Mortgage Notes or security therefor. Payments from the related Mortgagor (including, without limitation, any Penalty Charges) or any other amounts received with respect to each Mortgage Note shall be collected as provided in this Agreement by the Master Servicer and shall be applied upon receipt by the Master Servicer pro rata to each related Mortgage Note based on its respective Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). Payments or any other amounts received with respect to the related Repurchased Note shall be held in trust for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and remitted (net of its pro rata share of amounts payable at the Administrative Cost Rate and any other amounts due to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer) to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee by the Master Servicer on each Distribution Date pursuant to instructions provided by the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and deposited and applied in accordance with this Agreement, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). If any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies becomes an REO Loan, payments or any other amounts received with respect to any such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be collected and shall be applied upon receipt by the Master Servicer pro rata to each related Mortgage Note based on its respective Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). Any Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan subject to this Section 3.34 shall be allocated to each related Mortgage Note, pro rata based upon the respective unpaid principal balances thereof.

(ii)                                    If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives an aggregate payment of less than the aggregate amount due under any such Joint Mortgage Loan at any particular time, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall receive from the Master Servicer an amount equal to its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such payment. All expenses, losses and shortfalls relating solely to such Joint Mortgage Loan including, without limitation, losses of principal or interest, Nonrecoverable Advances, interest on Servicing Advances, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees (including any such fees related to the applicable Mortgage Notes), shall be allocated between the holders of the related Mortgage Notes pro

  -295-  

 

rata based upon the respective unpaid principal balances thereof. In no event shall any costs, expenses, fees or any other amounts related to any Mortgage Loan or Joint Mortgage Loan other than the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan be deducted from payments or any other amounts received with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and payable to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller.

(iii)                                A Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.34 applies shall be serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and the Certificateholders and any Companion Holders pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in accordance with the Servicing Standard and in accordance with the provisions herein as if (A) such Joint Mortgage Loan were a Serviced Whole Loan (and, if such Joint Mortgage Loan is part of a Serviced Whole Loan or Non-Serviced Whole Loan, such Joint Mortgage Loan shall continue to be serviced and administered under the applicable Intercreditor Agreement), (B) the related Mortgage Note(s) not repurchased were (1) a Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and (2) the only Mortgage Loan that is part of such Joint Mortgage Loan (or related Serviced Whole Loan), and (C) the related Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan. A Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan shall be serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, the Certificateholders and any Companion Holders pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Non-Serviced PSA. No Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted to terminate the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor as servicer, special servicer or operating advisor, respectively, of the related Repurchased Note. All rights of the mortgagee under each such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the Trust to the extent of its interest therein and the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and any Companion Holders in accordance with this Agreement or the Non-Serviced PSA, as applicable.

(iv)                                The related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be treated hereunder as if it were a Companion Loan holder on a pari passu basis. Other than with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, funds collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and applied to the applicable Mortgage Notes shall be deposited and disbursed in accordance with the provisions hereof relating to holders of promissory notes comprising Serviced Whole Loans that are pari passu in right of payment. Compensation shall be paid to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor with respect to each Repurchased Note as provided in this Agreement as if each such Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or Non-Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, as applicable. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor shall have any obligation to make P&I Advances with respect to any Repurchased Note or, if no related Mortgage Note is part of the Trust, a Servicing Advance with respect to any Repurchased Note. Except as otherwise specified herein, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have no reporting requirement with respect to any Repurchased Note other than to deliver to the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller

  -296-  

 

any document as is required to be delivered to a holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or a Non-Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, as applicable, hereunder.

(v)                               Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, with respect to each Joint Mortgage Loan, the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement shall continue to apply to all of the Mortgage Notes comprising such Mortgage Loan, including any Repurchased Note.

(c)               If any non-repurchased Mortgage Note relating to a Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies is a Specially Serviced Loan, then any related Repurchased Note shall also be a Specially Serviced Loan under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall cause such related Repurchased Note to be specially serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement and shall be entitled to any Special Servicing Fee, Workout Fee or Liquidation Fee payable to the Special Servicer under this Agreement as with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(d)               If (A) the Master Servicer shall pay any amount to any Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the terms hereof in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been made or will be received or collected in connection with any or all of the applicable Mortgage Notes and (B) such related payment is not received or collected by the Master Servicer, then the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly on demand by the Master Servicer return such amount to the Master Servicer. If the Master Servicer determines at any time that any amount received or collected by the Master Servicer in respect of any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies must be returned to the related Mortgagor or paid to any other person or entity pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, and such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly on demand by the Master Servicer repay (which obligation shall survive the termination of this Agreement) any portion thereof that the Master Servicer shall have distributed to such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Master Servicer may pay to the related Mortgagor or such other person or entity with respect thereto.

(e)               Subject to this Agreement and any Non-Serviced PSA (including, without limitation, the consent and consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder and any consultation rights of the Operating Advisor or analogous rights under the Non-Serviced PSA), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the holders of any of the Repurchased Notes, shall have the exclusive right and obligation to (i) administer, service and make all decisions and determinations regarding the related Joint Mortgage Loan and (ii) enforce the applicable Mortgage Loan documents as provided hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, may agree to any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, forgive interest on and principal of, capitalize interest on, permit the release, addition or substitution of collateral securing, and/or permit the release of the related Mortgagor on or any guarantor of any Joint Mortgage Loan it is required to service and administer as contemplated by

  -297-  

 

this Section 3.34, without the consent of the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, subject, however, to the terms of this Agreement as they pertain to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan and any Non-Serviced PSA as they pertain to a pari passu companion loan.

(f)                In taking or refraining from taking any action permitted hereunder, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each be subject to the same degree of care with respect to the administration and servicing of the Joint Mortgage Loans to which this Section 3.34 applies as is consistent with this Agreement and shall be liable to any Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller only to the same extent as set forth herein with respect to any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(g)               If the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has made a Servicing Advance or the Non-Serviced Trustee, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer has made a servicing advance under the related Non-Serviced PSA with respect to any Repurchased Note which would otherwise be reimbursable to such advancing party under this Agreement or Non-Serviced PSA, and such Advance is determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall reimburse the Trust or Non-Serviced Trust, as applicable, in an amount equal to such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller’s Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such Nonrecoverable Advance with interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be obligated to reimburse the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Trustee, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer (and amounts due to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be offset) for Advances or interest thereon or any amounts related to any Mortgage Loans or any other Joint Mortgage Loan other than such amounts relating to the applicable Repurchased Note. To the extent that the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller reimburses any such Nonrecoverable Advances and such amounts are subsequently recovered, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall receive a reimbursement from such recovery based on its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such recovery. This reimbursement right shall not limit the Trustee’s, the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s rights to reimbursement under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the total liability of each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not exceed an amount equal to its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of the amount to be reimbursed.

(h)               Each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the right to assign the related Repurchased Note; provided that the assignee of the related Repurchased Note shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(i)                 The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, in connection with their servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement, exercise efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to execute and deliver, on behalf of each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller as a holder of a pari passu interest in the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan, any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents and instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by any Mortgage or other security document related to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to or with respect to the related Joint Mortgage Loan documents, and any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of full release or discharge, and all

  -298-  

 

other comparable instruments with respect to the related Repurchased Note or related Repurchased Notes and the related Mortgaged Property all in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Agreement. Each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller agrees to furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer any powers of attorney or other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement related to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan; provided that such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be liable, and shall be indemnified by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; and further provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, without the written consent of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, shall not initiate any action in the name of such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller without indicating its representative capacity or take any action with the intent to cause and that actually causes, such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller to be registered to do business in any state.

(j)                 Pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller is required to deliver to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Mortgage Loan documents related to the applicable Repurchased Note, any requests for release and any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of the related Mortgaged Property or to any legal action or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note(s) or the Mortgage(s) or otherwise available at law or equity with respect to the related Repurchased Note.

(b)               [RESERVED].

(c)               On each Distribution Date, each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall be deemed to receive distributions in respect of principal or reimbursement of Realized Losses in an amount equal to the amount of principal or reimbursement of Realized Losses actually distributable to the Holders of the respective Related Certificates as provided in Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(d), Section 4.01(g) and Section 4.01(k) such that at all times the Lower-Tier Principal Amount of each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests is equal to the Certificate Balance of the Class of Related Certificates. On each Distribution Date, each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall be deemed to receive distributions in respect of interest in an amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount, in respect of its Related Certificates, plus a pro rata portion of the Interest Distribution Amount in respect of (i) the Class LA1 and Class LA3 Uncertificated Interests, the Class X-A Certificates, (ii) the Class LAS, Class LB and Class LC Uncertificated interests, the Class X-B Certificates and (iii) in the case of the Class LD Uncertificated Interest, the Class X-D Certificates, in each case, computed based on an interest rate equal to the excess of the Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate over the Pass-Through Rate of the Related Certificates and a Notional Amount equal to its related Lower-Tier Principal Amount, in each case to the extent actually distributable thereon as provided in Section 4.01(a). Amounts distributable pursuant to this paragraph are referred to herein collectively as the “Lower-Tier Distribution Amount”, and shall be made by the Certificate Administrator by deeming such Lower-Tier Distribution Amount to be withdrawn from the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account to be deposited in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account.

As of any date, the principal balance of each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall equal the Certificate Balance of the Related Certificates with respect thereto, as adjusted for the allocation of Realized Losses, as provided in Sections 4.04(b) and 4.04(c). The initial principal balance of each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall equal the respective Original Lower-Tier Principal Amount. The pass-through rate with respect to each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall be the rate per annum set forth in the Preliminary Statement hereto.

Any amount that remains in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on each Distribution Date after distribution of the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and distribution of Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges pursuant to Section 4.01(f) shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest (but only to the extent of the Available Funds for such Distribution Date remaining in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, if any).

(d)               So long as the Certificate Balance of any Class of Certificates has been reduced to zero, such Class shall not be entitled to any further distributions in respect of interest or principal other than reimbursement of Realized Losses (with interest as provided herein) and other amounts provided for in this Section 4.01.

(e)               [RESERVED].

(f)                On each Distribution Date, Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges, if any, collected in respect of any Mortgage Loan or REO Loan during the related Collection Period, in each case net of any Liquidation Fees or Workout Fees payable therefrom,

  -304-  

 

shall be distributable as follows: (i) to each of the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E-RR Certificates, the product of (a) such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium, (b) the related Base Interest Fraction for such class, and (c) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of principal distributed to such class for that Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all Principal Balance Certificates for that Distribution Date, (2) to the Class X-A Certificates, the excess, if any, of (a) the product of (i) such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of principal distributed to the Class A-1 and Class A-3 Certificates for that Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all Principal Balance Certificates for that Distribution Date, over (b) the amount of such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium distributed to the Class A-1 and Class A-3 Certificates as described above, (3) to the Class X-B Certificates, the excess, if any, of (a) the product of (i) such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of principal distributed to the Class A-S, Class B and Class C Certificates for that Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all Principal Balance Certificates for that Distribution Date, over (b) the amount of such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium distributed to the Class A-S, Class B and Class C Certificates as described above, (4) to the Class X-D Certificates as long as they have not been reduced to zero, any remaining portion of such Yield Maintenance Charges or Prepayment Premiums not distributed as described pursuant to clauses (1) through (3) above and (5) after the Certificate Balances or Notional Amounts, as applicable, of the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E-RR Certificates have been reduced to zero, to each of the Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class H-RR and Class J-RR Certificates, the product of (a) such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium, and (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of principal distributed to such class for that Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all Principal Balance Certificates for that Distribution Date.

For purposes of the first paragraph of this Section 4.01(f), the relevant “Base Interest Fraction” in connection with any Principal Prepayment of any Mortgage Loan that provides for the payment of a Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium, and with respect to any Class of Principal Balance Certificates, shall be a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the greater of (x) zero and (y) the difference between (i) the Pass-Through Rate on such Class for the related Distribution Date, and (ii) the applicable Discount Rate and (B) the denominator of which is the difference between (i) the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the applicable Discount Rate; provided that: (a) under no circumstances shall the Base Interest Fraction be greater than 1.0; (b) if the applicable Discount Rate is greater than or equal to the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan and is greater than or equal to the Pass-Through Rate on such Class for the related Distribution Date, then the Base Interest Fraction shall equal zero; and (c) if the applicable Discount Rate is greater than or equal to the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan and is less than the Pass-Through Rate on such Class for the related Distribution Date, then the Base Interest Fraction shall be equal to 1.0. If a Mortgage Loan provides for a step-up in the Mortgage Rate, then the Mortgage Rate used in the determination of the Base Interest Fraction shall be the Mortgage Rate in effect at the time of the prepayment.

For purposes of the preceding paragraph, the relevant “Discount Rate” in connection with any Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge collected on any prepaid

Mortgage Loan or REO Loan and distributable on any Distribution Date shall be a rate per annum equal to (i) if a discount rate was used in the calculation of the applicable Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge pursuant to the terms of the relevant Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, such discount rate (as reported by the Master Servicer), converted (if necessary) to a monthly equivalent yield, or (ii) if a discount rate was not used in the calculation of the applicable Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge pursuant to the terms of the relevant Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, the yield calculated by the linear interpolation of the yields as reported under the heading “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Constant Maturities” in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) published by the Federal Reserve Board for the week most recently ended before the date of the relevant prepayment (or deemed prepayment) of U.S. Treasury constant maturities with a maturity date, one longer and one shorter, most nearly approximating the related stated Maturity Date, such interpolated treasury yield converted to a monthly equivalent yield. If Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) is no longer published, the Master Servicer shall select a comparable publication as the source of the applicable yields of U.S. Treasury constant maturities.

No Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

All distributions of Yield Maintenance Charges and Prepayment Premiums made on each Distribution Date pursuant to this Section 4.01(f) shall first be deemed to be distributed from the Lower-Tier REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, pro rata based upon the amount of principal distributed in respect of each such Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(c) above.

(g)               [RESERVED].

(h)               On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw amounts from the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account (other than amounts with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and shall distribute such amounts to reimburse the Holders of the Certificates (in order of their principal distribution priority) (first deeming such amounts to be distributed with respect to the Related Lower-Tier Regular Interests) up to an amount equal to all Realized Losses, if any, previously deemed allocated to them and unreimbursed after application of the Available Funds for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(a). Amounts paid from the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall not reduce the Certificate Balances of the Classes of Certificates receiving such distributions. Any amounts remaining in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account after such distributions shall be applied to offset future Realized Losses with respect to the Principal Balance Certificates. Upon termination of the Trust, any amounts remaining in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall be distributed on the final Distribution Date to the Holders of the Class R Certificates from the Lower-Tier REMIC in respect of the Class LR Interest.

(i)                 All distributions made with respect to each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Except as otherwise specifically provided in Sections 4.01(j), Section 4.01(k) and 9.01, all such distributions with respect to each Class on each Distribution Date shall be made to the Certificateholders of the respective Class of record at the close of business on the related Record Date and shall be made by wire transfer of immediately

  -306-  

 

available funds to the account of any such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided the Certificate Administrator with wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent Distribution Dates), or otherwise by check mailed to such Certificateholder at its address in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to such Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Underwriters shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this Agreement or applicable law.

(j)                 Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the Certificate Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of any amount of Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class of Certificates) will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall, no later than the related P&I Advance Determination Date, post on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) a notice in electronic format to the effect that:

(i)                                      the Certificate Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date but, only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location therein specified; and

(ii)                                   no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after such Distribution Date.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(j) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six (6) months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the

  -307-  

 

Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate, subject to applicable law with respect to escheatment of funds. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust hereunder by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(j).

(k)               Distributions in reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to the Regular Certificates shall be made in the amounts and manner specified in Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(c) or Section 4.01(d), as applicable, to the Holders of the respective Class otherwise entitled to distributions of interest and principal on such Class on the relevant Distribution Date; provided that all distributions in reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to a Class of Certificates which has since been retired shall be to the prior Holders that surrendered the Certificates of such Class upon retirement thereof and shall be made by check mailed to the address of each such prior Holder last shown in the Certificate Register. Notice of any such distribution to a prior Holder shall be made in accordance with Section 13.05 at such last address. The amount of the distribution to each such prior Holder shall be based upon the aggregate Percentage Interest evidenced by the Certificates surrendered thereby. If the check mailed to any such prior Holder is returned uncashed, then the amount thereof shall be set aside and held uninvested in trust for the benefit of such prior Holder, and the Certificate Administrator shall attempt to contact such prior Holder in the manner contemplated by Section 4.01(j) as if such Holder had failed to surrender its Certificates.

(l)                 [RESERVED].

(m)             On each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan, the Companion Paying Agent shall make withdrawals and payments from the Companion Distribution Account for each Companion Loan in the following order of priority:

(i)                                      to pay to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, as applicable, any amounts deposited by the Master Servicer in the Companion Distribution Account not required to be deposited therein;

(ii)                                   to the extent permitted under the related Intercreditor Agreement and not otherwise previously reimbursed, to pay the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator or any of their directors, officers, employees and agents, as the case may be, any amounts payable or reimbursable to any such Person pursuant to Section 8.05, to the extent that any such amounts relate solely to a Serviced Whole Loan related to such Companion Loan, and such amounts are to be paid by the related Companion Holder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement;

  -308-  

 

(iii)                                to pay all amounts remaining in the Companion Distribution Account related to such Serviced Companion Loan to the related Companion Holder, in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement; and

(iv)                               to clear and terminate the Companion Distribution Account at the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.

All distributions from the Companion Distribution Account required hereunder shall be made by the Companion Paying Agent to the related Companion Holder by wire transfer in immediately available funds on each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date (and on each additional date required by this Agreement or the related Intercreditor Agreement) to the account of such Companion Holder or an agent therefor appearing on the Serviced Companion Noteholder Register on the related Record Date (or, if no such account so appears or information relating thereto is not provided at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by check sent by first class mail to the address of such Companion Holder or its agent appearing on the Serviced Companion Noteholder Register). Any such account shall be located at a commercial bank in the United States.

On the final Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and deliver to the Certificate Administrator who shall distribute to the Mortgage Loan Sellers, any Loss of Value Payments relating to the Mortgage Loans that it is servicing and that were transferred from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to the Collection Account on the immediately preceding Remittance Date.

(c)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may, at its sole cost and expense, make available by electronic media, bulletin board service or Internet website (in addition to making information available as provided herein) any reports or other information the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is required or permitted to provide to any party to this Agreement, the Rating Agencies or any Certificateholder or any prospective Certificateholder that has provided the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with an Investor Certification or has executed a “click-through” confidentiality agreement in accordance with Section 3.13 (which may be a licensed or registered investment advisor) to the extent such action does not conflict with the terms of this Agreement (including without limitation, any requirements to keep Privileged Information confidential), the terms of the Mortgage Loans or applicable law. Notwithstanding this paragraph, the availability of such information or reports on the Internet or similar electronic media shall not be deemed to satisfy any specific delivery requirements in this Agreement except as set forth herein. In connection with providing access to the Master Servicer’s Internet website or Special Servicer’s Internet website, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall take reasonable measures to ensure that only such parties listed above may access such information including, without limitation, requiring registration, a confidentiality agreement and acceptance of a disclaimer. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be liable for dissemination of this information in accordance with this Agreement, and neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be responsible for any information delivered, produced, or made available pursuant to Section 3.13 and Section 4.02(a), other than information produced by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable; provided that such information otherwise meets the requirements set forth herein with respect to the form and substance of such information or reports.

  -313-  

 

Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator. None of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Depositor shall have any obligation to recompute, verify or recalculate the information provided thereto by the Master Servicer. Unless the Certificate Administrator has actual knowledge that any report or file received from the Master Servicer contains erroneous information, the Certificate Administrator is authorized to rely thereon in calculating and making distributions to Certificateholders in accordance with Section 4.01, preparing the Distribution Date Statement required by Section 4.02(a) and allocating Realized Losses to the Certificates in accordance with Section 4.04.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed pursuant to this Section 4.02(c) or Section 4.02(d) shall not constitute a breach of this Section 4.02(c) or of Section 4.02(d) to the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer so fails because such disclosure, in the reasonable belief of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would violate any applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may affix to any information provided by it any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto).

(e)               The information to which any Certificateholder is entitled is limited to the information gathered and provided to the Certificateholder by the parties hereto pursuant to this Agreement and by acceptance of any Certificate, each Certificateholder agrees that except as specifically provided herein, no Certificateholder shall contact any Mortgagor directly with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(f)                Upon the reasonable request of the Directing Certificateholder or any Controlling Class Certificateholder that, in either case, is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to any Excluded Loan identified to the Master Servicer’s (in the case of a Non-Specially Serviced Loan) or the Special Servicer’s (in the case of a Specially Serviced Loan) reasonable satisfaction (at the expense of the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder) and if such information is in the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s possession, as applicable, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, shall provide or make

available (or forward electronically) to the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, (at the expense of the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable) any Excluded Information (available to Privileged Persons through the Certificate Administrator’s Website but not accessible to the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, through the Certificate Administrator’s Website because the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to another Excluded Loan) relating to any Excluded Loan with respect to which the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, is not a Borrower Party; provided that, in connection therewith, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may require a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, generally to the effect that such Person is the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, will keep such Excluded Information confidential and is not a Borrower Party, upon which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may conclusively rely. In addition, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on delivery from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B that such Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Class Certificateholder is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer referenced in this Section 4.02(f) shall include any applicable Excluded Special Servicer with respect to the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan(s).

Any amounts held in the Collection Account for future distribution and so used to make P&I Advances shall be appropriately reflected in the Master Servicer’s records and replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before the next succeeding P&I Advance Date (to the extent not previously replaced through the deposit of Late Collections of the delinquent principal and/or interest in respect of which such P&I Advances were made). The Master Servicer shall notify the Certificate Administrator of (i) the aggregate amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer for a Distribution Date and (ii) the amount of any Nonrecoverable P&I Advances for such Distribution Date, on or before two (2) Business Days prior to such Distribution Date. If the Master Servicer fails to make a required P&I Advance by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on any P&I Advance Date, the Trustee shall make such P&I Advance pursuant to Section 7.05 by noon, New York City time, on the related Distribution Date, unless the Master Servicer shall have cured such failure (and provided written notice of such cure to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Distribution Date. In the event that the Master Servicer fails to make a required P&I Advance hereunder, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee

of such circumstances by 4:30 p.m., New York City time, on the related P&I Advance Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the portion of any P&I Advance equal to the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee shall not be remitted to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account but shall be deposited into the Collection Account for payment to CREFC^® on such Distribution Date.

If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes a P&I Advance with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Serviced Whole Loan, then it shall provide to the related other master servicer and Other Trustee under the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement written notice of the amount of such P&I Advance with respect to such Mortgage Loan within two (2) Business Days of making such P&I Advance.

If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes a P&I Advance with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, then it shall provide to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Trustee written notice of the amount of such P&I Advance within two (2) Business Days of making such P&I Advance.

(b)               Subject to Section 4.03(c) and Section 4.03(e) below, the amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer with respect to any Distribution Date, and each Mortgage Loan, shall be equal to: (i) the Periodic Payments (net of related Servicing Fees and, in the case of any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, a fee accruing at the related Non-Serviced Primary Servicing Fee Rate) other than Balloon Payments, that were due on such Mortgage Loan (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan) during the related Collection Period and were not received as of the close of business on the Business Day preceding the related P&I Advance Date (or not advanced by any Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer) and (ii) with respect to each such Mortgage Loan delinquent in respect of its Balloon Payment as of the P&I Advance Date (including any REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan) as to which the related Balloon Payment would have been past due), an amount equal to the Assumed Scheduled Payment therefor. Subject to subsection (c) below, the obligation of the Master Servicer to make such P&I Advances is mandatory, and with respect to any Mortgage Loan (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan), shall continue until the Distribution Date on which the proceeds, if any, received in connection with a Liquidation Event or the disposition of the REO Property, as the case may be, with respect thereto are to be distributed. No P&I Advances shall be made with respect to any Companion Loan.

(c)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no P&I Advance shall be required to be made hereunder if such P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. With respect to each Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall make its determination that a P&I Advance that has been made on such Serviced Mortgage Loan is a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance with respect to such Serviced Mortgage Loan independently of any determination made by the applicable Other Servicer or Other Trustee, as the case may be, under the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement in respect of the related Serviced Companion Loan. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee determines that a proposed P&I Advance with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, or

  -316-  

any outstanding P&I Advance with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall provide the applicable Other Servicer written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days of the date of such determination. If the Master Servicer receives written notice from the related Other Servicer, as the case may be, that an Other Servicer or the Other Trustee has determined, in accordance with the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, that any proposed advance under the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement that is similar to a P&I Advance would be, or any outstanding advance under such Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement that is similar to a P&I Advance is, a nonrecoverable advance, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee may, based upon such determination, determine that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made with respect to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan will be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. Thereafter, in either case, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall not be required to make any additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan unless and until the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines that any such additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan would not be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, which determination may be as a result of consultation with the related Other Servicer, as the case may be, or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have the sole discretion provided in this Agreement to determine that any future P&I Advance or outstanding P&I Advance would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance.

With respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall make its determination (based on information provided by the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer) that a P&I Advance that has been made on such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance with respect to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan independently of any determination made by the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer, the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer or the Non-Serviced Trustee, as the case may be, under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA in respect of the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee determines that a proposed P&I Advance with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall provide the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days of the date of such determination. If the Master Servicer receives written notice from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be, that either has determined, or the Non-Serviced Trustee has determined, in accordance with the applicable Non-Serviced PSA with respect to a Non-Serviced Companion Loan, that any proposed advance under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA that is similar to a P&I Advance would be, or any outstanding advance under such Non-Serviced PSA that is similar to a P&I Advance is, a nonrecoverable advance, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee may, based upon such determination, determine that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan will be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. Thereafter, in either case, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall not be required to make any additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan unless

  -317-  

and until the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines that any such additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan would not be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, which determination may be as a result of consultation with the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be, or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have the sole discretion provided in this Agreement to determine that any future P&I Advance or outstanding P&I Advance would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(d)               In connection with the recovery of any P&I Advance out of the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.05(a), the Master Servicer shall be entitled to pay the Trustee and itself (in that order of priority) as the case may be, out of any amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account (but in no event from any funds allocable to a Serviced Companion Noteholder (unless related thereto), except to the extent permitted pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement), interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of such P&I Advance from the date made to but not including the date of reimbursement; provided, however, that no interest will accrue on any P&I Advance (i) if the related Periodic Payment is received on or before the related Due Date has passed and any applicable Grace Period has expired or (ii) if the related Periodic Payment is received after the Determination Date but on or prior to the related P&I Advance Date. The Master Servicer shall reimburse itself and/or the Trustee, as the case may be, for any outstanding P&I Advance, subject to Section 3.17 of this Agreement, as soon as practicably possible after funds available for such purpose are deposited in the Collection Account. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer shall make P&I Advances on the basis of the original terms of any Mortgage Loan, including Mortgage Loans subject to forbearance agreements or other temporary deferrals or payment accommodations, unless (a) the terms of the Mortgage Loan have been permanently modified to change or forgive a monetary obligation or (b) such advance has been determined to be non-recoverable.

(e)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall make an advance for Yield Maintenance Charges, Default Interest, late payment charges, Prepayment Premiums, or Balloon Payments or make any P&I Advance with respect to any Companion Loan and (ii) if an Appraisal Reduction Amount has been determined with respect to any Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan, an “appraisal reduction amount” has been made in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA and the Master Servicer has notice of such appraisal reduction amount) then in the event of subsequent delinquencies thereon, the interest portion of the P&I Advance in respect of such Mortgage Loan for the related Distribution Date shall be reduced (it being herein acknowledged that there shall be no reduction in the principal portion of such P&I Advance) to equal the product of (x) the amount of the interest portion of such P&I Advance for such Mortgage Loan for such Distribution Date without regard to this Section 4.03(e), and (y) a fraction, expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which is equal to the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such Distribution Date, net of the related Appraisal Reduction Amount (or, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the portion of such Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to the related Mortgage Loan), if any, and the denominator of which is equal to the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such Distribution Date. For purposes of the immediately

  -318-  

preceding sentence, the Periodic Payment due on the Maturity Date for a Balloon Mortgage Loan will be the Assumed Scheduled Payment for the related Distribution Date.

(f)                In no event shall either the Master Servicer or the Trustee be required to make a P&I Advance with respect to any Companion Loan.

Section 4.04        Allocation of Realized Losses. (a) On each Distribution Date, immediately following the distributions to be made on such date pursuant to Section 4.01, the Certificate Administrator shall calculate the Realized Loss for such Distribution Date. Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Class of Regular Certificates shall be made by reducing the Certificate Balance thereof by the amount allocated pursuant to Section 4.04(b). Any Realized Losses so allocated to a Class of Regular Certificates shall be allocated among the respective Certificates of such Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby. The allocation of Realized Losses shall constitute an allocation of losses and other shortfalls experienced by the Trust. Reimbursement of previously allocated Realized Losses shall not constitute distributions of principal for any purpose and shall not result in an additional reduction in the Certificate Balance of the Class of Certificates in respect of which any such reimbursement is made. With respect to any Class of Principal Balance Certificates, to the extent that any Nonrecoverable Advances (plus interest thereon) that were reimbursed from principal collections on the Mortgage Loans (including REO Loans) and previously resulted in a reduction of the Principal Distribution Amount are subsequently recovered on the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property, then (on the Distribution Date related to the Collection Period during which the recovery occurred): (i) the amount of such recovery shall be added to the Certificate Balance(s) of the Class or Classes of Principal Balance Certificates that previously were allocated Realized Losses in sequential order according to the priority of payments for the Principal Balance Certificates (and in the case of the Principal Balance Certificates that are Senior Certificates, on a pro rata basis according to the amount of unreimbursed Realized Losses on such Classes), in each case up to the lesser of (A) the unallocated portion of such recovery and (B) the amount of the unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to the subject class of certificates; and (ii) the Interest Shortfall with respect to each affected class of Certificates for the next Distribution Date shall be increased by the amount of interest that would have accrued through the then current Distribution Date if the restored write-down for the reimbursed class of Principal Balance Certificates had never been written down. If the Certificate Balance of any Class of Principal Balance Certificates is so increased, the amount of unreimbursed Realized Losses of such Class of Principal Balance Certificates shall be decreased by such amount.

(b)               On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Balances of the Principal Balance Certificates will be reduced without distribution, as a write-off to the extent of any Realized Losses, if any, allocable to such Certificates with respect to such Distribution Date. Any such write-off shall be allocated first, to the Class J-RR Certificates, second, to the Class H-RR Certificates, third, to the Class G-RR Certificates, fourth, to the Class F-RR Certificates, fifth, to the Class E-RR Certificates, sixth, to the Class D Certificates, seventh, to the Class C Certificates, eighth, to the Class B Certificates, ninth, to the Class A-S Certificates, and then, pro rata (based on their respective Certificate Balances), to the Class A-1 and Class A-3 Certificates, in each case until the remaining Certificate Balances of such Classes of Certificates have been reduced to zero.

  -319-  

(c)               With respect to any Distribution Date, any Realized Losses allocated to a Class of Principal Balance Certificates pursuant to Section 4.04(a) or Section 4.04(b), with respect to such Distribution Date shall reduce the Lower-Tier Principal Amount of the Related Lower-Tier Regular Interest with respect thereto as a write-off.

Section 4.05        Appraisal Reduction Amounts; Collateral Deficiency Amounts. (a) For purposes of (x) determining the Controlling Class (and whether a Control Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing) and (y) determining the Voting Rights of the related Classes for purposes of removal of the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, the Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts (with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, to the extent allocated to the related Mortgage Loan) shall be allocated to each Class of Principal Balance Certificates in reverse sequential order to notionally reduce the related Certificate Balances until the Certificate Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero (i.e., first, to the Class J-RR Certificates, second, to the Class H-RR Certificates, third, to the Class G-RR Certificates, fourth, to the Class F-RR Certificates, fifth, to the Class E-RR Certificates, sixth, to the Class D Certificates, seventh, to the Class C Certificates, eighth, to the Class B Certificates, ninth, to the Class A-S Certificates, and finally, pro rata based on their respective interest entitlements, to the Senior Certificates (other than the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates)).

As of the first Determination Date after a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) becomes an AB Modified Loan, the Special Servicer shall calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent Appraisal obtained by the Special Servicer with respect to such Mortgage Loan, and all other information in its possession relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount determination. Upon obtaining knowledge or receipt of notice by the Special Servicer that a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, the Special Servicer shall (i) promptly request from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer and Non-Serviced Trustee the most recent appraisal with respect to such AB Modified Loan, in addition to all other information reasonably required by the Special Servicer to calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, and (ii) as of the first Determination Date following receipt by the Special Servicer of the appraisal and any other information set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i) that the Special Servicer reasonably expects to receive, calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent appraisal obtained by the Non-Serviced Special Servicer with respect to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, and all other information in its possession relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount determination. Upon obtaining actual knowledge or receipt of notice by any other party to this Agreement that a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, such party shall promptly notify the Special Servicer thereof. None of the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall calculate or verify any Collateral Deficiency Amount.

With respect to any Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, calculated for purposes of determining (i) the Voting Rights of the related Classes for purposes of removal of the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor or (ii) the Controlling Class or the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event or an Operating Advisor

  -320-  

Consultation Event, the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property shall be determined on an “as is” basis.

The Special Servicer (in the case of a Mortgage Loan other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or the Master Servicer (in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), shall notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be (and the Master Servicer shall notify the Certificate Administrator), of the amount of any Appraisal Reduction Amount (which notification from the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator shall be made by delivery of the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File in accordance with Section 3.12(d)), any Collateral Deficiency Amount and (except in the case of the Master Servicer) any resulting Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to each Mortgage Loan, AB Modified Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, if any (which notification shall be satisfied through delivery of such Appraisal Reduction Amount, Collateral Deficiency Amount and Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount as included in the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Template included in the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package or such other report or reports mutually agreed upon between the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, which shall be delivered by the Master Servicer simultaneously with the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File in accordance with Section 3.12(d)) and the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice of such Appraisal Reduction Amount, Collateral Deficiency Amount and/or Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount, as applicable, to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Based on information in its possession, the Certificate Administrator shall determine from time to time which Class of Certificates is the Controlling Class. Promptly upon its determination of a change in the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor of such event, including the identity and contact information of the new Controlling Class Certificateholder and the identity of the Controlling Class as set forth in Section 3.23(m) (the cost of obtaining such information from the Depository being an expense of the Trust).

(b)               (i) The Holders of the majority of Voting Rights of any Class of Control Eligible Certificates that is determined at any time of determination to no longer be the Controlling Class because it has been reduced to less than 25% of its initial Certificate Balance (any such Class, an “Appraised-Out Class”) as a result of an Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (as applicable) in respect of such Class shall have the right and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the Other Servicers shall have the right upon the request of similarly situated holders of certificates in the related Other Securitization, at their sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order (or, with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, require the Master Servicer to request from the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer) a second Appraisal with respect to any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan) for which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred or as to which there exists a Collateral Deficiency Amount (such Holders, the “Requesting Holders”). With respect to any such Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such second Appraisal to be (A) delivered within thirty (30) days from receipt of the Requesting Holders’ written request and (B) prepared on an “as-is” basis by an MAI appraiser (provided that such MAI appraiser may not be the same MAI appraiser that provided the Appraisal in respect of which the Requesting Holders are requesting the Special Servicer to obtain an additional Appraisal). With respect to any such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such second appraisal from the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer and to forward such second appraisal to the Special Servicer.

  -321-  

(ii)                               Upon receipt of any supplemental Appraisal pursuant to clause (i) above, the Special Servicer shall determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, whether, based on its assessment of such supplemental Appraisal, any recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (as applicable) is warranted, and if so warranted, the Special Servicer shall recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, based on such supplemental Appraisal and any information received from the Master Servicer. If required by such recalculation, the Appraised-Out Class shall be reinstated as the Controlling Class and each other Appraised-Out Class shall, if applicable, have its related Certificate Balance notionally restored to the extent required by such recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable. An Appraised-Out Class shall be entitled to continue to exercise the rights of the Controlling Class until ten (10) days following its receipt of written notice of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (as applicable), unless the Requesting Holders provide written notice of their intent to challenge such Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (as applicable) to the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator within such 10-day period as described above. If the Requesting Holders provide this notice, then the Appraised-Out Class shall be entitled to continue to exercise the rights of the Controlling Class until the earliest of (i) one hundred twenty (120) days following the related Appraisal Reduction Event, unless the Special Servicer provides the second appraisal within such 120-day period, (ii) the determination by the Special Servicer (described below) that a recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (as applicable) is not warranted or that such recalculation does not result in the Appraised-Out Class remaining the Controlling Class and (iii) the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event. After the Appraised-Out Class is no longer entitled to exercise the rights of the Controlling Class, the rights of the Controlling Class shall be exercised by the next most senior Class of Control Eligible Certificates, if any, unless a recalculation results in the reinstatement of the Appraised-Out Class as the Controlling Class.

(c)               With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and each Serviced Whole Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred (unless such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan has remained current for three consecutive Periodic Payments, and with respect to which no other Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred with respect to that Mortgage Loan during the preceding three months (for such purposes taking into account any amendment or modification of such Mortgage Loan, any related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan)), the Special Servicer shall (1) within thirty (30) days of the occurrence or of each anniversary of the related Appraisal Reduction Event, and (2) upon its determination that the value of the related Mortgaged Property has materially changed, notify the Master Servicer of the occurrence of such anniversary or determination and obtain an Appraisal (which may be an update of a prior Appraisal), the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance or to the extent it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, an expense of the Trust, or conduct an internal valuation, as applicable and, promptly following receipt of any such Appraisal or performance of such valuation (or receipt of any Appraisal obtained in accordance with Section 4.05(b) above), shall deliver a copy thereof to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder; provided, however, that no new or updated Appraisal shall be required

  -322-  

if the Mortgage Loan, Serviced Whole Loan or REO Property is under contract to be sold within ninety (90) days of such Appraisal Reduction Event or anniversary thereof and the Special Servicer reasonably believes such sale is likely to close. Based upon such Appraisal or internal valuation (or any Appraisal obtained in accordance with Section 4.05(b) above) and receipt of information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer from the Master Servicer that is reasonably necessary to calculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, the Special Servicer shall determine or redetermine and calculate or recalculate, as applicable, and report to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder, the amount and calculation or recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount with respect to such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, and such report shall be delivered in the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Template format; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be liable for failure to comply with such duties insofar as such failure results from a failure of the Master Servicer to provide sufficient information to the Special Servicer to comply with such duties or failure by the Master Servicer to otherwise comply with its obligations hereunder. Following the Master Servicer’s receipt from the Special Servicer of the calculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amounts, the Master Servicer shall provide such information to the Certificate Administrator in the form of the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File and the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Template provided to it by the Special Servicer or such other report or reports mutually agreed upon between the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. Such report shall also be forwarded by the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer if the related Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan), to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the Other Servicer of such Other Securitization into which the related Serviced Companion Loan has been sold, or to the holder of any related Serviced Companion Loan by the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer if the related Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan). If the Special Servicer is required to redetermine the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, such redetermined Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount shall replace the prior Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, with respect to such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, the Special Servicer shall consult with the Directing Certificateholder with respect to any Appraisal, valuation or downward adjustment in connection with an Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 4.05(b), the Special Servicer will not be required to obtain an Appraisal or conduct an internal valuation, as applicable, with respect to a Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred to the extent the Special Servicer has obtained an Appraisal or conducted such a valuation (in accordance with requirements of this Agreement), as applicable, with respect to the related Mortgaged Property within the twelve-month period immediately prior to the occurrence of such Appraisal Reduction Event. Instead, the Special Servicer may use such prior Appraisal or valuation, as applicable, in calculating any Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan; provided that the Special Servicer is not aware of any material change to the related Mortgaged Property having occurred and affecting the validity of such Appraisal or valuation.

  -323-  

The Master Servicer shall deliver by electronic mail to the Special Servicer any information in its possession that is reasonably required to determine, calculate, redetermine or recalculate any Appraisal Reduction Amount, using reasonable efforts to deliver such information, within four (4) Business Days following the Special Servicer’s reasonable request therefor; provided that the Special Servicer’s failure to timely make such request shall not relieve the Master Servicer of its obligation to use reasonable efforts to provide such information to the Special Servicer within four (4) Business Days following the Special Servicer’s reasonable request. The Master Servicer shall not calculate Appraisal Reduction Amounts.

(d)               Any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), any related Serviced Companion Loan and any Serviced Whole Loan previously subject to an Appraisal Reduction Amount, which has become a Corrected Loan (for such purposes taking into account any amendment or modification of such Mortgage Loan, any related Serviced Companion Loan and any Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable), and with respect to which no other Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred and is continuing, will no longer be subject to an Appraisal Reduction Amount. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be calculated by the applicable party under and in accordance with and pursuant to the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced PSA.

(e)               Each Serviced Whole Loan will be treated as a single mortgage loan for purposes of calculating an Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to the Mortgage Loan and Companion Loan(s) that comprise such Serviced Whole Loan. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of a Serviced AB Whole Loan will be allocated in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement or, if no allocation is specified in the related Intercreditor Agreement, then, first, to the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan (until its principal balance is notionally reduced to zero by such Appraisal Reduction Amounts) and second, pro rata between the related Serviced AB Mortgage Loan and any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount that would impact any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan will be allocated in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement or, if no allocation is specified in the related Intercreditor Agreement, then, pro rata, between the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, based upon their respective outstanding principal balances.

Section 4.06        [RESERVED]. 

Section 4.07        Investor Q&A Forum; Investor Registry; and Rating Agency Q&A Forum and Document Request Tool. (a)  The Certificate Administrator shall make available, only to Privileged Persons, the Investor Q&A Forum. The “Investor Q&A Forum” shall be a service available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, where (i) Certificateholders and beneficial owners of Certificates that are Privileged Persons may submit questions to (A) the Certificate Administrator relating to the Distribution Date Statement, (B) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, relating to the reports being made available pursuant to Section 3.13(b) and Section 3.13(e), the Mortgage Loans (excluding any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or the related Mortgaged Properties or (C) the Operating Advisor relating to the Operating Advisor Annual Report or other reports prepared by the Operating Advisor or actions by the Special Servicer referenced in any Operating Advisor Annual Report (each an “Inquiry” and collectively, “Inquiries”), and (ii) Privileged Persons may view Inquiries that have been previously submitted

and answered, together with the answers thereto. Upon receipt of an Inquiry for the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and in the case of any Inquiry relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, the Certificate Administrator shall forward the Inquiry to the appropriate Person, in each case within a commercially reasonable period of time following receipt thereof. Following receipt of an Inquiry, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, unless such party determines not to answer such Inquiry as provided below, shall reply to the Inquiry, which reply of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator by electronic mail. In the case of an Inquiry relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Certificate Administrator shall make reasonable efforts to obtain an answer from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable; provided that the Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible for the content of such answer or any delay or failure to obtain such answer. The Certificate Administrator shall post (within a commercially reasonable period of time following preparation or receipt of such answer, as the case may be) such Inquiry and the related answer to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. If the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor determines, in its respective sole discretion, that (i) any Inquiry is beyond the scope of the topics described above, (ii) answering any Inquiry would not be in the best interests of the Trust and/or the Certificateholders, (iii) answering any Inquiry would be in violation of applicable law, the applicable Mortgage Loan documents or this Agreement, (iv) answering any Inquiry would materially increase the duties of, or result in significant additional cost or expense to, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, (v) answering any Inquiry would require the disclosure of Privileged Information (subject to the Privileged Information Exception), (vi) that answering the Inquiry would or is reasonably expected to result in a waiver of an attorney-client privilege or disclosure of attorney work product or (vii) answering any Inquiry is otherwise, for any reason, not advisable, it shall not be required to answer such Inquiry and, in the case of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of such determination. In addition, no party shall post or otherwise disclose any direct communications with the Directing Certificateholder as part of its response to any Inquiries. The Certificate Administrator shall notify the Person who submitted such Inquiry in the event that the Inquiry will not be answered. Any notice by the Certificate Administrator to the Person who submitted an Inquiry that will not be answered shall include the following statement: “Because the Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Operating Advisor shall not answer an Inquiry if it determines, in its respective sole discretion, that (i) any Inquiry is beyond the scope of the topics described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (ii) answering any Inquiry would not be in the best interests of the Trust and/or the Certificateholders, (iii) answering any Inquiry would be in violation of applicable law or the applicable Mortgage Loan documents, (iv) answering any Inquiry would materially increase the duties of, or result in significant additional costs or expenses to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or Operating Advisor, as applicable, (v) answering any Inquiry would require the disclosure of Privileged Information, or (vi) answering any Inquiry is otherwise, for any reason, not advisable, no inference should or may be drawn from the fact that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator

(b)               The Certificate Administrator shall make available to any Certificateholder and any Certificate Owner that is a Privileged Person, the Investor Registry. The “Investor Registry” shall be a voluntary service available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, where Certificateholders and Certificate Owners that are Privileged Persons can register and thereafter obtain information with respect to any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner that has so registered. Any Person registering to use the Investor Registry shall certify that (a) it is a Certificateholder or a Certificate Owner and a Privileged Person and (b) it grants authorization to the Certificate Administrator to make its name and contact information available on the Investor Registry for at least forty-five (45) days from the date of such certification to Persons entitled to access to the Investor Registry. Such Person shall then be asked to enter certain mandatory fields such as the individual’s name, the company name and email address, as well as certain optional fields such as address, phone, and Class(es) of Certificates owned.

The 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly thereafter post the Rating Agency Inquiry with the reason it was not answered to the Rating Agency Q&A Forum and Document Request Tool.

Section 5.02        Form and Registration. No Transfer of any Non-Registered Certificate shall be made unless that Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, and effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction which does not require such registration or qualification.

  -329-  

If a Transfer (other than one by the Depositor to an Affiliate thereof or by the Initial Purchasers to the Retaining Party) is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act, and under the applicable state securities laws, then the following subsections (a)-(d) shall apply.

During the Restricted Period, distributions due in respect of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate shall only be made upon delivery to the Certificate Registrar by Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, of a Non-U.S. Beneficial Ownership Certification. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, distributions due in respect of any beneficial interests in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate shall not be made to the holders of such beneficial interests unless exchange for a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class is improperly withheld or refused. The aggregate Certificate Balance of a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or a Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, as hereinafter provided;

On the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, and the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificates, which shall be held by the Certificate Registrar for purposes of effecting the exchanges contemplated by the preceding paragraph. Computershare Trust Company, National Association is hereby initially appointed the Authenticating Agent with the power to act, on the Trustee’s behalf, in the authentication and delivery of the Certificates in connection with Transfers and exchanges as herein provided.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Class R Certificates shall only be in the form of Definitive Certificates, and the Risk Retention Certificates shall be issued in the form of Definitive Certificates at all times during the Transfer Restriction Period.

(d)               Owners of beneficial interests in Book-Entry Certificates of any Class shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated Certificates unless: (i) the Depository advises the Certificate Registrar in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as depository with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates of such Class or ceases to be a Clearing Agency, and the Certificate Registrar and the Depository are unable to locate a qualified successor within ninety (90) days of such notice or (ii) the Trustee has instituted or has been directed to institute any judicial proceeding to enforce the rights of the Holders of such Class and the Trustee has been advised by counsel that in connection with such proceeding it is necessary or appropriate for the Certificate Registrar to obtain possession of the Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that under no circumstances will certificated Non-Registered Certificates be issued to beneficial owners of a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate. Upon notice of the occurrence of any of the events described in clause (i) or (ii) above with respect to any Certificates of a Class that are in the form of Book-Entry Certificates and upon surrender by the Depository of any Book-Entry Certificate of such Class and receipt from the Depository of instructions for re-registration, the Certificate Registrar shall issue Certificates of such Class in the form of Definitive Certificates (bearing, in the case of a Definitive Certificate issued for a Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate, the same legends regarding Transfer restrictions borne by such Book-Entry Certificate), and thereafter the Certificate Registrar shall recognize the Holders of such Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders under this Agreement.

After its release of the Risk Retention Certificates in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall have no obligation or liability with respect to the safekeeping of the Risk Retention Certificates. There shall be, and hereby is, established by the Certificate Administrator an account which will be designated the “Retained Certificate Safekeeping Account” and in which the Risk Retention Certificates shall be held and which shall be governed by and subject to this Agreement.  In addition, on and after the date hereof, the Certificate Administrator may establish any number of subaccounts to the Retained Certificate Safekeeping Account for the Retaining Party.  Such subaccounts shall be marked or evidenced as being for the benefit of the Holder of the related Certificate.

Upon receipt by the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, at its office designated in Section 5.07, of (1) instructions from Euroclear or Clearstream, if applicable, and the Depository, directing the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate equal to the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to be exchanged, such instructions to contain information regarding the participant account with the Depository to be credited with such increase, (2) with respect to a Transfer of an interest in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, information regarding the participant account of the Depository to be debited with such decrease and (3) with respect to a Transfer of an interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate for an interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate (i) during the Restricted Period, a certificate in the form of Exhibit K hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest and stating that the Person transferring such interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate reasonably believes that the Person acquiring such interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate is a Qualified Institutional Buyer or (ii) after the Restricted Period, an Investment Representation Letter in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto from the Transferee to the effect that such Transferee is a Qualified Institutional Buyer (an “Investment Representation Letter”) and is obtaining such beneficial interest in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, then the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository to reduce, or cause to be reduced, the Certificate Balance of the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate and to increase, or cause to be increased, the Certificate Balance of the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Balance of the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to be exchanged, and the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository, concurrently with such reduction, to credit, or cause to be credited, to the account of the Person specified in such instructions, a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate equal to the reduction in the Certificate Balance of the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate and to debit, or cause to be debited, from the account of the Person making such Transfer the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate that is being transferred.

(f)                Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate. Interests in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate as to which the Certificate Registrar has received from Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, a certificate (a “Non-U.S. Beneficial Ownership Certification”) to the effect that Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, has received a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L hereto from the holder of a beneficial interest in such Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, shall be exchanged after the Restricted Period, for interests in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class. The Certificate Registrar shall effect such exchange by delivering to the Depository for credit to the respective accounts of such holders, a duly executed and

  -335-  

authenticated Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, representing the aggregate Certificate Balance of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate initially exchanged for interests in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate. The delivery to the Certificate Registrar by Euroclear or Clearstream of the certificate or certificates referred to above may be relied upon by the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar as conclusive evidence that the certificate or certificates referred to therein has or have been delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate. Upon any exchange of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate for interests in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall endorse the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to reflect the reduction in the Certificate Balance represented thereby by the amount so exchanged and shall endorse the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to reflect the corresponding increase in the amount represented thereby. Until so exchanged in full and except as provided therein, the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, and the Certificates evidenced thereby, shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate and Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate authenticated and delivered hereunder.

(g)               Non-Book Entry Certificate to Book-Entry Certificate. If a holder of a Non-Book Entry Certificate (other than (a) a Risk Retention Certificate during the Transfer Restriction Period or (b) a Class R Certificate) wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Non-Book Entry Certificate for an interest in a Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class, or to Transfer all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate to a Person who is entitled to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in a Book-Entry Certificate, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream, if applicable, and the Depository, cause the exchange of all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate for an equivalent beneficial interest in the appropriate Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class. Upon receipt by the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, at its office designated in Section 5.07, of (1) such Non-Book Entry Certificate, duly endorsed as provided herein, (2) instructions from such holder directing the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, to credit, or cause to be credited, a beneficial interest in the applicable Book-Entry Certificate equal to the portion of the Certificate Balance of the Non-Book Entry Certificate to be exchanged, such instructions to contain information regarding the participant account with the Depository to be credited with such increase and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit M hereto (in the event that the applicable Book-Entry Certificate is the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate), in the form of Exhibit N hereto (in the event that the applicable Book-Entry Certificate is the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate) or in the form of Exhibit O hereto (in the event that the applicable Book-Entry Certificate is the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate), then the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, shall cancel, or cause to be canceled, all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate, shall, if applicable, execute, authenticate and deliver to the Transferor a new Non-Book Entry Certificate equal to the aggregate Certificate Balance of the portion retained by such Transferor and shall instruct the Depository to increase, or cause to be increased, such Book-Entry Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Balance of the portion of the Non-Book Entry Certificate to be exchanged and to credit, or cause to be credited, to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the applicable Book-Entry Certificate equal to the Certificate Balance of the portion of the Non-Book Entry Certificate so canceled. Upon the written direction of the Depositor (which may be by email to CCTCMBSBondAdmin@computershare.com) or its Affiliate, the Certificate Registrar shall execute any instrument as may be reasonably required by the Depository to effect such exchange.

  -336-  

(h)               Non-Book Entry Certificates on Initial Issuance Only. Subject to the issuance of Definitive Certificates, if and when permitted by Section 5.02(d), and subject to the issuance and Transfer of a Risk Retention Certificate during the Transfer Restriction Period in accordance with Section 5.03(i), no Non-Book Entry Certificate shall be issued to a Transferee of an interest in any Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate, Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or to a Transferee of a Non-Book Entry Certificate (or any portion thereof).

(i)                 Transfers of Risk Retention Certificates. During the Transfer Restriction Period, if a Transfer of any Risk Retention Certificate after the Closing Date is to be made, then the following documents shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator, who shall facilitate such Transfer in conjunction with the Certificate Registrar and shall refuse to register such Transfer unless it receives (and, upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) (i) instruction from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such Transfer and the Retaining Sponsor pursuant to Section 5.02(e) directing the Certificate Administrator to release such Risk Retention Certificate from the Retained Certificate Safekeeping Account in connection with a Transfer of such Risk Retention Certificate, (ii) a certification from such Certificateholder’s prospective Transferee substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-3, with respect to the HRR Certificates, which such certification is countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor with a medallion stamp guarantee of the Retaining Sponsor and countersigned by the Depositor, (iii) a certification from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such Transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-4, with respect to the HRR Certificates, which such certification is countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor with a medallion stamp guarantee of the Retaining Sponsor and countersigned by the Depositor, (iv) an IRS Form W-9 completed by the prospective Transferee and (v) contact information and wiring instructions for the prospective Transferee. After the Transfer Restriction Period, and for so long as the Risk Retention Certificate, as applicable, is not held in safekeeping, the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any Transfer unless it receives (x) a certification from such Certificateholder’s prospective Transferee substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-3, which such certification is countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor with a medallion stamp guarantee of the Retaining Sponsor and countersigned by the Depositor and (y) a certification from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such Transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-4, which such certification is countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor with a medallion stamp guarantee of the Retaining Sponsor and countersigned by the Depositor; provided that after the Transfer Restriction Period, the countersignature of the Retaining Sponsor and the Depositor to such certifications shall not be required. Upon receipt of the foregoing certifications, the Certificate Registrar shall, subject to Section 5.02(e) and Section 5.03(a), reflect such Risk Retention Certificate in the name of the prospective Transferee. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall a Risk Retention Certificate be held as a Book-Entry Certificate during the Transfer Restriction Period. Any attempted or purported transfer in violation of this Section 5.03(i) shall be null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in any purported transferee and shall not relieve the transferor of any obligations with respect to the applicable Certificates.

(j)                 In the event a Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser seeks to cause the release of any HRR Certificates from the Retained Certificate Safekeeping Account, the Subsequent Third-Party Purchaser shall simultaneously deliver to the Certificate Administrator, the Retaining Sponsor and the Depositor (i) an executed written request for such release in the form of Exhibit D-3 and (ii) an executed written request for the Retaining Sponsor’s consent to such release

  -337-  

substantially in the form of Exhibit D-5. The Certificate Administrator may not consent to, or otherwise permit, any such release without obtaining the Retaining Sponsor’s countersigned request for consent.

(k)               Other Exchanges. In the event that a Book-Entry Certificate is exchanged for a Definitive Certificate, such Certificates may be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of subsections (c) through (f) above (including the certification requirements intended to ensure that such Transfers comply with Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Act, at the case may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Certificate Registrar.

(l)                 Restricted Period. Prior to the termination of the Restricted Period with respect to the issuance of the Certificates, Transfers of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S) shall be limited to Transfers made pursuant to the provisions of subsection (e) above.

(m)             If Non-Registered Certificates are issued upon the Transfer, exchange or replacement of Certificates bearing a restrictive legend relating to compliance with the Act, or if a request is made to remove such legend on Certificates, the Non-Registered Certificates so issued shall bear the restrictive legend, or such legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar such satisfactory evidence, which may include an Opinion of Counsel that neither such legend nor the restrictions on Transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that Transfers thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver Certificates that do not bear such legend.

(n)               All Certificates surrendered for registration of Transfer and exchange shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with the Certificate Registrar’s customary procedures.

(o)               With respect to the ERISA Restricted Certificates, no sale, Transfer, pledge or other disposition (other than any initial Transfer to the Initial Purchasers or, with respect to the Risk Retention Certificates, the Retaining Party) of any such Certificate shall be made unless the Trustee and Certificate Administrator shall have received either (i) a representation letter from the proposed purchaser or Transferee of such Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 attached hereto, to the effect that such proposed purchaser or Transferee is not and will not be (A) an employee benefit plan or other plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA or a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code, or a governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA) or any other plan subject to any federal, state or local law that is, to a material extent, similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (“Similar Law”) (each, a “Plan”) or (B) any person acting on behalf of any such Plan (including an entity whose underlying assets include Plan assets by reason of investment in the entity by such Plan and the application of Department of Labor Regulation § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) or using the assets of any such Plan to acquire such Certificate, other than an insurance company using the assets of its “insurance company general account” (as such term is defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60) under circumstances whereby the purchase and holding of such Certificates by such insurance company will be exempt from the

  -338-  

prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and the Code under Sections I and III of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 (or, in the case of a Plan subject to Similar Law, where the purchase, holding and disposition by such Plan will not constitute or result in a non-exempt violation of applicable Similar Law) or (ii) if such Certificate is presented for registration in the name of a purchaser or Transferee that is any of the foregoing, an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Depositor to the effect that the acquisition and holding of such Certificate by such purchaser or Transferee will not constitute or result in a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” within the meaning of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a non-exempt violation of any Similar Law, and will not subject the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any sub-servicer, the Initial Purchasers, the Underwriters, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Depositor to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any such Similar Law) in addition to those set forth in the Agreement. The Trustee and Certificate Administrator shall not register the sale, Transfer, pledge or other disposition of any ERISA Restricted Certificate unless the Trustee and Certificate Administrator have received either the representation letter described in clause (i) above or the Opinion of Counsel described in clause (ii) above. The costs of any of the foregoing representation letters or Opinions of Counsel shall not be borne by any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any sub-servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Initial Purchasers, the Underwriters, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trust. Each Certificate Owner of an ERISA Restricted Certificate shall be deemed to represent that it is not and will not become a Person specified in clauses (i)(A) or (i)(B) above. Any Transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any ERISA Restricted Certificates that would constitute or result in a prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a non-exempt violation of any Similar Law, or would otherwise violate the provisions of this Section 5.03(o) shall be deemed absolutely null and void ab initio, to the extent permitted under applicable law.

(p)               No Class R Certificate may be purchased by or transferred to any prospective purchaser or Transferee that is or will be a Plan, or any person acting on behalf of any Plan (including an entity whose underlying assets include Plan assets by reason of investment in the entity by such Plan and the application of Department of Labor Regulation § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) or using the assets of any Plan to purchase any Class R Certificate. Each prospective Transferee of a Class R Certificate shall deliver to the Transferor and the Certificate Administrator a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2, stating that the prospective Transferee is not and will not become a Plan or a person acting on behalf of any Plan (including an entity whose underlying assets include Plan assets by reason of investment in the entity by such Plan and the application of Department of Labor Regulation § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) or using the assets of any Plan. Each Holder of a Class R Certificate shall be deemed to represent that it is not and will not become a Person specified in the second preceding sentence. Any attempted or purported Transfer in violation of these Transfer restrictions shall be null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in any purported Transferee and shall not relieve the Transferor of any obligations with respect to the applicable Certificates.

(q)               Each Person who has or acquires any Residual Ownership Interest shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Residual Ownership Interest to have agreed to be

  -339-  

bound by the following provisions and the rights of each Person acquiring any Residual Ownership Interest are expressly subject to the following provisions:

(i)                              Each Person acquiring or holding any Residual Ownership Interest shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall not acquire or hold such Residual Ownership Interest as agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) on behalf of any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee. Any such Person shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of any change or impending change in its status (or the status of the beneficial owner of such Residual Ownership Interest) as a Permitted Transferee. Any acquisition described in the first sentence of this Section 5.03(q) by a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee or by a Person who is acting as an agent of a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee shall be void ab initio and of no effect, and the immediately preceding owner who was a Permitted Transferee shall be restored to registered and beneficial ownership of the Residual Ownership Interest as soon and as fully as possible.

(ii)                          No Residual Ownership Interest may be transferred, and no such Transfer shall be registered in the Certificate Register, without the express written consent of the Certificate Registrar, and the Certificate Registrar shall not recognize the Transfer, and such proposed Transfer shall not be effective, without such consent with respect thereto. In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Residual Ownership Interest, the Certificate Registrar shall, as a condition to such consent, (x) require the proposed Transferee to deliver, and the proposed Transferee shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar and to the proposed Transferor, an affidavit in substantially the form attached as Exhibit D-1 (a “Transferee Affidavit”) of the proposed Transferee (A) that such proposed Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and (B) stating that (1) the proposed Transferee historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to do so in the future, (2) the proposed Transferee understands that, as the holder of a Residual Ownership Interest, it may incur tax liabilities in excess of cash flows generated by the residual interest, (3) the proposed Transferee intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Residual Ownership Interest as they become due, (4) the proposed Transferee will not cause income with respect to the Residual Ownership Interest to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of such proposed Transferee or any other U.S. Tax Person, (5) the proposed Transferee will not Transfer the Residual Ownership Interest to any Person that does not provide a Transferee Affidavit or as to which the proposed Transferee has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee or is acting as an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, and (6) the proposed Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of this Section 5.03(q) and (y) other than in connection with the initial issuance of a Class R Certificate, require a statement from the proposed Transferor substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D-2 (the “Transferor Letter”), that the proposed Transferor has no actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee and has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the proposed Transferee’s statements in its Transferee Affidavit are false.

(iii)                        Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed Transferee under clause (ii) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar has

  -340-  

actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer to such proposed Transferee shall be effected and such proposed Transfer shall not be registered on the Certificate Register; provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar shall not be required to conduct any independent investigation to determine whether a proposed Transferee is a Permitted Transferee. Upon notice to the Certificate Registrar that there has occurred a Transfer to any Person that is a Disqualified Organization or an agent thereof (including a broker, nominee or middleman) in contravention of the foregoing restrictions, and in any event not later than sixty (60) days after a request for information from the Transferor of such Residual Ownership Interest or such agent, the Certificate Registrar agrees to furnish to the IRS and the Transferor of such Residual Ownership Interest or such agent such information necessary to the application of Section 860E(e) of the Code as may be required by the Code, including, but not limited to, the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions with respect to such Class R Certificate (or portion thereof) for periods after such Transfer. At the election of the Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Registrar may charge a reasonable fee for computing and furnishing such information to the Transferor or to such agent referred to above; provided, however, that such Persons shall in no event be excused from furnishing such information.

(r)             The Class R Certificates may only be transferred to and owned by Qualified Institutional Buyers.

(s)            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall comply with all federal withholding requirements respecting payments to Certificateholders and other payees of interest or original issue discount that the Certificate Administrator reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of Certificateholders or payees shall not be required for such withholding, and the Certificateholders shall be required to provide the Certificate Administrator with such forms and such other information reasonably required by the Certificate Administrator. If the Certificate Administrator does withhold any amount from interest or original issue discount payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder or payee pursuant to federal withholding requirements, the Certificate Administrator shall indicate the amount withheld to such Person. Such amounts shall be deemed to have been distributed to such Persons for all purposes of this Agreement.

(t)             Each Certificate Owner of a Non-Registered Certificate shall be deemed to have represented and agreed as follows:

(i)              Such Certificate Owner (A)(i) is a Qualified Institutional Buyer, (ii) is acquiring such Non-Registered Certificate for its own account or for the account of another Qualified Institutional Buyer, as the case may be, and (iii) is aware that the sale of the Non-Registered Certificates to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, (B)(i)(except with respect to the Class R Certificates) is an Institutional Accredited Investor that is not a Qualified Institutional Buyer and that is purchasing such Non-Registered Certificate for its own account or for the account of another Institutional Accredited Investor, and (ii) is not acquiring such Non-Registered Certificate with a view to any resale or distribution of such Non-Registered Certificate other than in accordance with the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.03, or (C) (except with respect to the Class R Certificates) is an institution that

is not a United States Securities Person, and is purchasing such Non-Registered Certificate in an Offshore Transaction.

(ii)                       Such Certificate Owner understands that the Non-Registered Certificates have not been and will not be registered or qualified under the Securities Act or any state or foreign securities laws and may not be reoffered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred except (A) to a person whom the purchaser reasonably believes is a Qualified Institutional Buyer in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, (B) (except with respect to the Class R Certificates) to an institution that is a non-United States Securities Person in an Offshore Transaction in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S, or (C) (except with respect to the Class R Certificates) to an Institutional Accredited Investor that is not a Qualified Institutional Buyer, and in each case, in accordance with any applicable federal securities laws and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other jurisdiction.

(iii)                     Such Certificate Owner understands that, if the purchaser of a Non-Registered Certificate is not a Qualified Institutional Buyer or a non-United States Securities Person, the Non-Registered Certificates purchased by such purchaser may not be transferred in book-entry form and may be transferred in physical form only in compliance with the restrictions in clause (ii)(C) above and no such transfer of the Non-Registered Certificates owned by such Certificate Owner will be permitted unless the purchaser provides certification that the transfer complies with such restrictions, as described in this Section 5.03.

(iv)                    Such Certificate Owner is duly authorized to purchase the Non-Registered Certificates and its purchase of investments having the characteristics of the Non-Registered Certificate is authorized under, and not directly or indirectly in contravention of, any law, rule, regulation, charter, trust instrument or other operative document, investment guidelines or list of permissible or impermissible investments that is applicable to such Certificate Owner.

(u)           Each beneficial owner of a Certificate or any interest therein that is a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (an “ERISA Plan”) or is acting on behalf of or using the assets of such an ERISA Plan will be deemed to have represented and warranted that (i) none of the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Trust, any Underwriter, any Initial Purchaser, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer, or any of their respective affiliated entities, has provided any investment recommendation or investment advice on which the ERISA Plan or the fiduciary making the investment decision for the ERISA Plan has relied in connection with the decision to acquire Certificates, and they are not otherwise acting as a fiduciary (within the meaning of Section 3(21) of ERISA or Section 4975(e)(3) of the Code) to the ERISA Plan in connection with the ERISA Plan’s acquisition of Certificates (unless an applicable prohibited transaction exemption is available (all of the conditions of which are satisfied) to cover the purchase and holding of the Certificates or the transaction is not otherwise prohibited), and (ii) the ERISA Plan fiduciary making the decision to acquire the Certificates is exercising its own independent judgment in evaluating the investment in the Certificates.

If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence of actual notice to the Certificate Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Certificate Registrar shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and interest in the Trust. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 5.04, the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith.

The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary; provided, however, that to the extent that a party to this Agreement responsible for distributing any report, statement or other information required to be distributed to Certificateholders has been provided an Investor Certification, such party to this Agreement shall distribute such report, statement or other information to such beneficial owner (or prospective Transferee).

(a)  The Certificate Registrar shall maintain in as current form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders. If any Certificateholder that has provided an Investor Certification (i) requests in writing from the Certificate Registrar a list of the names and addresses of Certificateholders, (ii) states that such Certificateholder desires to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to its rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and (iii) provides a copy of the communication which Certificateholder proposes to transmit, then the Certificate Registrar shall, within ten (10) Business Days after the receipt of such request, furnish such Certificateholder (at such Certificateholder’s sole cost and expense) a current list of the Certificateholders. In addition, upon written request to the Certificate Administrator of any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner (if applicable) that has provided an Investor Certification, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly notify such Certificateholder or Certificate Owner of the identity of the then-current Directing Certificateholder. Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees that the Certificate Registrar shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the list of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which information was derived. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Depositor shall be entitled to a list of the names and addresses of Certificateholders from time to time upon request therefor.

Promptly after the votes are tabulated, the Certificate Administrator shall prepare a notice announcing the results of the vote. Such notice shall include the percentage of Voting Rights in favor of the proposition, the percentage against the proposition and the percentage abstaining. In addition, the notice will announce whether the proposition has been adopted by Certificateholders. The notice shall be distributed in accordance with the methods described in Section 5.10(a) above. The Certificate Administrator shall also include such notice on the Form 10-D prepared in connection with the distribution period that corresponds with the date such notice is distributed.

(e)               If any party to this Agreement believes a vote of Certificateholders is needed for some matter related to the administration of the Trust that is not specifically contemplated herein, such party may request the Certificate Administrator to conduct a vote and the Certificate Administrator will conduct the requested vote in accordance with these procedures.

  -346-

(b)               Each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer may be merged or consolidated with or into any Person, or Transfer all or substantially all of its assets (which may be limited to all or substantially all of its assets related to commercial mortgage loan servicing, asset representations reviewing or commercial mortgage surveillance, as the case may be) to any Person, in which case any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer, shall be the successor of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer (such Person, in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, in each of the foregoing cases, the “Surviving Entity”), as the case may be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper (other than an assumption agreement wherein the successor shall agree to perform the obligations of and serve as the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that with respect to such merger, consolidation or succession, Rating Agency Confirmation is received from each Rating Agency with respect to the Classes of Certificates and, with respect to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, a confirmation is received from each applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates as described in Section 3.25); provided, further, that if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Operating Advisor enters into a merger and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, is the Surviving Entity under applicable law, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, shall not, as a result of the merger, be required to provide a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to ratings of the Classes of Certificates or, with respect to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, a confirmation of the rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings; provided, further, that for so long as the Trust, and, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan included as part of the trust in a related Other Securitization, is subject to the reporting

  -353-  

requirements of the Exchange Act, if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor notifies the Depositor in writing (a “Merger Notice”) of any such merger, consolidation, conversion or other change in form, and the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, notifies the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, in writing that the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, has discovered that such successor entity has not complied with its Exchange Act reporting obligations under any other commercial mortgage loan securitization (and specifically identifying the instance of noncompliance), then it shall be an additional condition to such succession that the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, shall have consented (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such successor entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor may remain the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, under this Agreement after (x) being merged or consolidated with or into any Person that is a Prohibited Party, or (y) transferring all or substantially all of its assets to any Person if such Person is a Prohibited Party, except to the extent (i) the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or Operating Advisor, as applicable, is the Surviving Entity of such merger, consolidation or transfer and has been and continues to be in compliance with its Regulation AB reporting obligations hereunder or (ii) the Depositor consents to such merger, consolidation or transfer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If, within sixty (60) days following the date of delivery of the Merger Notice to the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, the Depositor or depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, shall have failed to notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in writing of the Depositor’s determination, or depositor’s determination, in the case of an Other Securitization, to grant or withhold such consent, such failure shall be deemed to constitute a grant of such consent. If the conditions to the provisions in the second preceding sentence are not met, the Trustee may terminate, and if the conditions set forth in the third proviso of the third preceding sentence are not met the Trustee shall terminate, the applicable Surviving Entity’s servicing of the Mortgage Loans pursuant hereto, such termination to be effected in the manner set forth in Section 7.01.

(i)                             The Asset Representations Reviewer shall keep in full effect its existence and rights as an entity under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, and shall be in compliance with the laws of all jurisdictions to the extent necessary to perform its duties under this Agreement.

(ii)                          Any Person into which the Asset Representations Reviewer may be merged or consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Asset Representations Reviewer, shall be the successor of the Asset Representations Reviewer hereunder, and shall be deemed to have assumed all of the liabilities and obligations of such Asset Representations Reviewer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the Trustee has received a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such successor or surviving Person.

Section 6.04        Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and Others. (a) None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying

  -354-  

Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any of the partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees or agents of any of the foregoing shall be under any liability to the Trust, the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any such Person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of such party’s duties or by reason of negligent disregard of such party’s obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer, and any of the partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees or agents of any of the foregoing may rely on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent of any of the foregoing shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (including, without limitation, costs and expenses of litigation and of enforcement of this indemnity, and of investigation, counsel fees, damages, judgments and amounts paid in settlement) incurred in connection with any actual or threatened legal or administrative action (whether in equity or at law) or claim relating to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loans, the Companion Loans or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense: (i) specifically required to be borne thereby pursuant to the terms hereof; (ii) incurred in connection with any breach of a representation or warranty made by it herein; (iii) incurred by reason of bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence in the performance of its obligations or duties hereunder, or by reason of negligent disregard of such obligations or duties; or (iv) in the case of the Depositor and any of its partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees and agents, incurred in connection with any violation by any of them of any state or federal securities law. In addition, absent actual fraud (as determined by a final non-appealable court order), neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator (including in its capacity as Custodian, Certificate Registrar and 17g-5 Information Provider) shall be liable for special, punitive, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. Each of the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor conclusively may rely on, and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon, any resolution, officer’s certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, financial statement, agreement, Appraisal, bond or other document (in electronic or paper format) as contemplated by and in accordance with this Agreement and

  -355-  

reasonably believed or in good faith believed by the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Operating Advisor to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and each of them may consult with counsel, in which case any written advice of counsel or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection with respect to any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel.

(b)               None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal or administrative action (whether in equity or at law), proceeding, hearing or examination that is not incidental to its respective duties under this Agreement or which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability not recoverable from the Trust; provided, however, that each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer may in its discretion undertake any such action, proceeding, hearing or examination that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, the rights of the Certificateholders and the holders of a Serviced Companion Loan (as a collective whole) taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of such Serviced Companion Loan); provided, however, that if a Serviced Whole Loan and/or the holder of any related Companion Loan are involved, such expenses, costs and liabilities will be payable out of funds related to the applicable Serviced Whole Loan in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement and will also be payable out of the other funds in the Collection Account if amounts on deposit with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan are insufficient therefor. If any such expenses, costs or liabilities relate to a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, then any subsequent recovery on that Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, will be used to reimburse the Trust for any amounts advanced for the payment of such expenses, costs or liabilities. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action, proceeding, hearing or examination and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust, and the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans or the Companion Loan on deposit in the Collection Account (including, without duplication, any subaccount thereof), as provided by Section 3.05(a)(xiii).

(c)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, agrees to indemnify the Depositor, the Trustee, the related Serviced Companion Noteholders, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) (in the case of the Special Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the Master Servicer) and the Trust and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent thereof, and hold them harmless, from and against any and all claims, disputes, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs (including, without limitation, in connection with the enforcement of such indemnified party’s rights under this Agreement), judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising from or as a result of any willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the

  -356-  

case may be, in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement or by reason of negligent disregard by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of its duties and obligations hereunder or by reason of breach of any representations or warranties made herein by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Operating Advisor, as the case may be, shall immediately notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, if a claim or dispute is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans entitling the Trust to indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall assume the defense of such claim or dispute (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Depositor, as applicable) and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or them in respect of such claim or dispute. Any failure to so notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not affect any rights any of the foregoing Persons may have to indemnification under this Agreement or otherwise, unless the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, defense of such claim or dispute is materially prejudiced thereby.

Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor from and against any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses incurred by the Depositor or its Affiliates that arise out of or are based upon, severally and not jointly (i) a breach by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of any obligation it has to deliver information to the 17g-5 Information Provider as set forth in this Agreement, including Section 3.07(a), Section 3.08, Section 3.09(e), Section 3.12, Section 3.17(c) and Section 3.18(g) or (ii) a breach by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of any obligation it has set forth in Section 3.13(d), Section 3.13(g) and Section 3.13(j).

(d)               Each of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator (including in its role as Custodian), respectively agrees to indemnify the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator (in the case of the Trustee), the Trustee (in the case of the Certificate Administrator), the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trust and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager employee or agent thereof, and hold them harmless, from and against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs (including, without limitation, in connection with the enforcement of such indemnified party’s rights under this Agreement), judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising from or as a result of any willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, respectively, in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement or by reason of negligent disregard by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, respectively, of its duties and obligations hereunder or by reason of breach of any representations or warranties made herein; provided that such indemnity shall not cover indirect or consequential damages. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Operating Advisor, as the case may be, shall immediately notify the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, respectively, if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans entitling the Trust to indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall assume

  -357-  

the defense of such claim (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Operating Advisor) and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or them in respect of such claim. Any failure to so notify the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall not affect any rights any of the foregoing Persons may have to indemnification under this Agreement or otherwise, unless the Trustee’s or the Certificate Administrator’s defense of such claim is materially prejudiced thereby.

(e)               The Depositor agrees to indemnify the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trust and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent thereof, and hold them harmless, from and against any and all claims, disputes, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs (including, without limitation, in connection with the enforcement of such indemnified party’s rights under this Agreement), judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising from or as a result of any willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Depositor, in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement or by reason of negligent disregard by the Depositor of its duties and obligations hereunder or by reason of breach of any representations or warranties made herein; provided that such indemnity shall not cover indirect or consequential damages. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Operating Advisor, as the case may be, shall immediately notify the Depositor if a claim or dispute is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement, whereupon the Depositor shall assume the defense of such claim or dispute (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) or the Special Servicer, as the case may be) and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or them in respect of such claim or dispute. Any failure to so notify the Depositor shall not affect any rights any of the foregoing Persons may have to indemnification under this Agreement or otherwise, unless the Depositor’s defense of such claim or dispute is materially prejudiced thereby.

(f)                The Operating Advisor agrees to indemnify the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trust and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent thereof, and hold them harmless, from and against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs (including, without limitation, in connection with the enforcement of such indemnified party’s rights under this Agreement), judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising from or as a result of any willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Operating Advisor, in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement or by reason of negligent disregard by the Operating Advisor of its duties and obligations hereunder or by reason of breach of any representations or warranties made herein; provided that such indemnity shall not cover indirect or consequential damages. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Depositor, as the case may be, shall immediately notify the

  -358-  

Operating Advisor if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans entitling the Trust to indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Operating Advisor shall assume the defense of such claim (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent), the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Depositor) and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or them in respect of such claim. Any failure to so notify the Operating Advisor shall not affect any rights any of the foregoing Persons may have to indemnification under this Agreement or otherwise, unless the Operating Advisor’s defense of such claim is materially prejudiced thereby.

(g)               Neither the Operating Advisor nor its Affiliates or any of the partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees or agents of the Operating Advisor shall be under any liability to any Certificateholder for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Operating Advisor against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of negligent disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.

(h)               The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees to indemnify the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor and the Trust and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent thereof, and hold them harmless, from and against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs (including, without limitation, in connection with the enforcement of such indemnified party’s rights under this Agreement), judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising from or as a result of any willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Asset Representations Reviewer, in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement or by reason of negligent disregard by the Asset Representations Reviewer of its duties and obligations hereunder or by reason of breach of any representations or warranties made herein; provided that such indemnity shall not cover indirect or consequential damages.

  -359-

The indemnification provided herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination or resignation of the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(j)                 For purposes of this Section 6.04 and Section 11.12, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, will be deemed not to have engaged in willful misconduct or committed bad faith or negligence in the performance of their respective obligations and duties hereunder or acted in negligent disregard of such obligations and duties if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, fails to follow any terms of any Mortgage Loan documents because the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, determines that compliance with such terms would or potentially would cause an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code (for which determination the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to rely on advice of counsel, the cost of which will be reimbursed as an additional expense of the Trust).

Section 6.05        Depositor, Master Servicer and Special Servicer Not to Resign. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.03, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall resign from their respective obligations and duties hereby imposed on each of them except upon (a) determination that such party’s duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it or (b) in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, upon the appointment of, and the acceptance of such appointment by, a successor (which may be appointed by the resigning Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable), and receipt by the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25). Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to clause (a) above shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the resigning party) to such effect delivered to the Trustee and (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) the Directing Certificateholder. Unless applicable law requires the resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (as the case may be) to be effective immediately, and the Opinion of Counsel delivered pursuant to the prior sentence so states, no such resignation by the Master Servicer or

  -360-  

the Special Servicer under clause (a) above shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor master servicer or special servicer, as applicable, shall have assumed the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, responsibilities and obligations in accordance with Section 7.02 and no such resignation by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall become effective until the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. Upon any termination (as described in Section 7.01(c)) or resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pursuant to this Section 6.05, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have the right and opportunity to appoint any successor master servicer or special servicer with respect to this Section 6.05; provided that such successor master servicer or special servicer shall not be the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Operating Advisor or one of their respective Affiliates and (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) such successor special servicer is approved by the Directing Certificateholder, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. The resigning party shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) associated with a transfer of its duties pursuant to this Section 6.05. Except as provided in Section 7.01(c), in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer have the right to appoint any successor master servicer or special servicer if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, is terminated or removed pursuant to Section 7.01.

Section 6.06        Rights of the Depositor in Respect of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer hereunder or exercise the rights of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not be relieved of any of their respective obligations hereunder by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and is not obligated to supervise the performance of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Special Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise.

Section 6.07        The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer as Certificate Owner. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any Affiliate thereof may become the Holder of (or, in the case of a Book-Entry Certificate, Certificate Owner with respect to) any Certificate with (except as otherwise set forth in the definition of “Certificateholder”) the same rights it would have if it were not the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or an Affiliate thereof.

Section 6.08        The Directing Certificateholder.

(a)               Other than with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan that is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all Specially Serviced Loans (other than any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class), (2) the Special Servicer with respect to Major Decisions relating to Non-Specially Serviced Loans (other than any

  -361-  

applicable Excluded Loan) and (3) generally, the Special Servicer with respect to all Mortgage Loans for which an extension of maturity is being considered by the Special Servicer.

If the Master Servicer receives a Mortgagor request for a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, the Master Servicer shall promptly forward such request to the Special Servicer and shall have no further obligations with respect to such Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision. The Special Servicer shall process such request, unless the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request subject to the consent of the Special Servicer and other the consents or consultations required by this Section 6.08(a).

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as set forth in, and in any event subject to, the third and fourth paragraphs of this Section 6.08(a) and Section 6.08(b), (i) the Master Servicer shall not take any action that constitutes a Special Servicer Decision or a Major Decision unless it has obtained the consent of the Special Servicer, who shall have ten (10) days (or twenty (20) days with respect to the determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default) (from the date that the Special Servicer receives the information from the Master Servicer) to analyze and make a recommendation regarding any of the following actions (subject, however, to the right of the Special Servicer to process directly any of the following actions set forth herein) (provided that, in the event that the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer have mutually agreed that the Master Servicer will determine and process the request with respect to the subject following action, if the Special Servicer does not consent, or notify the Master Servicer that it will not consent, to any of the following actions within the required ten (10) days or twenty (20) days, as applicable, the Special Servicer shall be deemed to have consented to the subject following action), and (ii) for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing (such limitation not to be applicable to a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder), the Special Servicer shall not take any of the following actions with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan, and with respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan solely to the extent explicitly stated below (each, a “Major Decision”) (and shall not consent to the Master Servicer’s taking any action constituting a Major Decision), other than with respect to an Excluded Loan, as to which the Directing Certificateholder has consented in writing within ten (10) days (or in the case of a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) days) after the Directing Certificateholder’s receipt of the Special Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis, which report may (in the sole discretion of the Special Servicer) take the form of an Asset Status Report (the “Major Decision Reporting Package”) (provided that if such written objection has not been received by the Special Servicer within such ten (10) day period (or in the case of a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, twenty (20) day period), then the Directing Certificateholder will be deemed to have approved such action):

(i)                            any proposed or actual foreclosure upon or comparable conversion (which may include acquisition of an REO Property) of the ownership of properties securing any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and Serviced Companion Loan that comes into and continues in default;

provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer and Special Servicer may mutually agree, as contemplated by Section 3.18(a), that the Master Servicer will process and obtain the prior consent of the Special Servicer with respect to any Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan (which consent shall be deemed received by the Master Servicer if the Special Servicer does not respond within ten (10) days (or twenty (20) days, in the case of an Acceptable Insurance Default) of delivery to the Special Servicer of the Master Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis, and all information in the Master Servicer’s possession that is reasonably requested by the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent, plus the time period provided to any Serviced Companion Loan Holder under any related Intercreditor Agreement to consent to a Major Decision); provided that, the Master Servicer shall, without the need for any such mutual agreement between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, process any Major Decision described in subclauses (A) and (B) of clause (xiii) of this definition of “Major Decision” with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan; provided, however, that, in the event that the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any other matter requiring consent of the Directing Certificateholder prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event in this Agreement (or any matter requiring consultation with the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor), is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders (or, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the interest of the Certificateholders and the holders of any related Serviced Companion Loan) (as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loans)), the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Directing Certificateholder’s response (or without waiting to consult with the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as the case may be); provided, further, that the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, provides the Directing Certificateholder (or the Operating Advisor, if applicable) with prompt written notice following such action including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer is required to obtain the consent of the Directing Certificateholder for any of the foregoing actions or any other matter requiring consent of the Directing Certificateholder after the occurrence

  -365-  

and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event; provided, however, that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall consult with the Directing Certificateholder (only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) in connection with any Major Decision not relating to an Excluded Loan (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the Directing Certificateholder prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event hereunder) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Directing Certificateholder in respect thereof. In the event the Special Servicer receives no response from the Directing Certificateholder within ten (10) days following its written request for input on any required consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Directing Certificateholder on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Directing Certificateholder to respond shall not relieve the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, from consulting with the Directing Certificateholder on any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or an Excluded Loan with respect to such party) or Serviced Whole Loan. The Special Servicer shall provide each Major Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor (a) prior to the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, promptly after the Special Servicer receives the Directing Certificateholder’s approval or deemed approval with respect to such Major Decision or (b) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, simultaneously upon providing such Major Decision Reporting Package to the Directing Certificateholder; provided, however, that, with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan other than an Excluded Loan, no Major Decision Reporting Package shall be required to be delivered prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event. With respect to any particular Major Decision and related Major Decision Reporting Package and any Asset Status Report, the Special Servicer shall make available to the Operating Advisor a Servicing Officer with relevant knowledge regarding the related Mortgage Loan and such Major Decision and/or Asset Status Report in order to address reasonable questions that the Operating Advisor may have relating to, among other things, such Major Decision and/or Asset Status Report. In addition, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer shall also deliver a Major Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor and consult with the Operating Advisor in connection with any proposed Major Decision (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the Operating Advisor after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event hereunder) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, provided that such consultation is on a non-binding basis. In the event that the Special Servicer receives no response from the Operating Advisor within ten (10) days following the later of (i) its written request for input (which request shall include the related Major Decision Reporting Package) on any required consultation and (ii) delivery of all such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor that is In the possession of the Special Servicer related to the subject matter of such consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Operating Advisor to respond on any specific matters shall not relieve the Special Servicer from its obligation to consult with the Operating Advisor on any future matter with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or any other Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder of the holder of a majority of the Controlling Class (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event, a Consultation Termination Event or an

  -366-  

Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions that it is processing or for which it must give its consent and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.08(a) for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder, subject to any rights, if any, of the related Companion Holder to advise the Special Servicer with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, may direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to a Mortgage Loan, as the Directing Certificateholder may deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made herein; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such direction or objection contemplated by the preceding paragraphs of this Section 6.08(a) or this paragraph may require or cause the Master Servicer or Special Servicer to violate any provision of any Mortgage Loan or related Intercreditor Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, applicable law, this Agreement, or the REMIC Provisions (and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, subject to the rights of the holders of the related Companion Loan), including without limitation the obligation of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trust or the Trustee to liability, or materially expand the scope of the responsibilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to act, or fail to act, in a manner which in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is not in the best interests of the Certificateholders.

In the event the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, determines that a refusal to consent by the Directing Certificateholder or the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder or any advice from the Directing Certificateholder, the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder or the Operating Advisor would cause the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan, applicable law or this Agreement, including without limitation, the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall disregard such refusal to consent or advise and notify the Directing Certificateholder, the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, the Operating Advisor, respectively, and the Trustee and the Rating Agencies of its determination, including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. The taking of, or refraining from taking, any action by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in accordance with the direction of or approval of the Directing Certificateholder or Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder or the advice of the Operating Advisor that does not violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan, applicable law or the Servicing Standard or any other provisions of this Agreement, will not result in any liability on the part of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer.

With respect to any matter for which the consent of the Directing Certificateholder is required, to the extent no specific time period for deemed consent is expressly stated, in the

  -367-  

event no response from the Directing Certificateholder is received within ten (10) days following written request for consent and its receipt of all reasonably requested information on any required consent, the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed to have consented to or approved the specific matter; provided that the failure of the Directing Certificateholder to respond will not affect any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan.

The Directing Certificateholder shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that the Directing Certificateholder (exclusive of a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) shall not be protected against any liability to a Controlling Class Certificateholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties owed to the Controlling Class Certificateholders or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations or duties owed to the Controlling Class Certificateholders. By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees that the Directing Certificateholder may take actions that favor the interests of one or more Classes of the Certificates including the Holders of the Controlling Class over other Classes of the Certificates, and that the Directing Certificateholder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of some Classes of the Certificates, that the Directing Certificateholder may act solely in its own interests or the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class, that the Directing Certificateholder does not have any duties or liability to the Holders of any Class of Certificates other than the Controlling Class except in the case of a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder, that the Directing Certificateholder shall not be liable to any Certificateholder, by reason of its having acted solely in its own interests or the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class, and that the Directing Certificateholder shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Directing Certificateholder or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

Any Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan, shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment. By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees that any such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan, may take actions that favor the interests of one or more classes of the certificates issued under the related Non-Serviced PSA including the holders of the controlling class under such Non-Serviced PSA over other classes of the certificates issued under the Non-Serviced PSA and/or any Class of Certificates, and that such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of some Classes of the Certificates, that such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the controlling class under the related Non-Serviced PSA, that such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, shall not be liable to any Certificateholder, by reason of its having acted solely in the interests of the Holders of the controlling class under the related Non-Serviced PSA, and that the Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against such Non-Serviced Whole Loan

  -368-  

Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) shall have no right to consent to or direct any action taken or not taken by any party to this Agreement; (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder shall remain entitled to receive any notices, reports or information to which it is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and any other applicable party shall consult with the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), to the extent set forth herein in connection with any action to be taken or refrained from taking to the extent set forth herein; and (iii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) shall have no direction, consultation or consent rights hereunder and no right to receive any notices, reports or information (other than notices, reports or information required to be delivered to all Certificateholders) or any other rights as Directing Certificateholder. However, the Directing Certificateholder shall maintain the right to exercise its Voting Rights for the same purposes as any other Certificateholder.

From and after the receipt by the Affected Party of such written notice except as otherwise provided in this Article VII, all authority and power of the Affected Party under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee with respect to a termination of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to and under this Section 7.01, and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Affected Party, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise.

  -372-  

to service the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement. During such forty-five (45) day period the Master Servicer may continue to serve as the Master Servicer hereunder. In the event that the Master Servicer is unable, within such forty-five (45) day period, to cause a qualified successor master servicer to assume the duties of the Master Servicer hereunder, then and in such event, the Trustee shall assume the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder.

Notwithstanding Section 7.01(b), if any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer shall occur and be continuing that affects the Holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, then, so long as the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated, the Holder of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or the Other Trustee appointed under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, shall be entitled to direct the Trustee to terminate the Special Servicer with respect to the related Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan. The Special Servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan cannot at any time be (without the prior written consent of the holder of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan) the Person (or Affiliate thereof) that was terminated at the direction of the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan. The Special Servicer under this paragraph shall meet the eligibility requirements of Section 7.02 and the eligibility requirements of the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and the appointment thereof shall comply with the provisions of Section 7.02. Any appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this paragraph shall be subject to the receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation and confirmation from the applicable rating agencies that such appointment or replacement will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the then-current ratings of any class of any related Serviced Companion Loan Securities (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25).

(d)               Subject to the rights of the holder of any Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement at any time prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, the Directing Certificateholder shall be entitled to terminate the rights (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement, with or without cause, upon ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor; such termination to be effective upon the appointment of a successor special servicer meeting the requirements of this Section 7.01(d) provided that, with respect to a Servicing Shift Whole Loan, the ten (10) Business Days’ notice set forth in this Section 7.01(d) shall not apply to the related Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder’s right to terminate the Special Servicer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement without cause with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement. Upon a termination of the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) shall appoint a successor special servicer to assume the duties of the Special Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that (i) such successor will meet the requirements set forth in Section 7.02, (ii) each Rating Agency delivers Rating Agency Confirmation and, in the case of any class of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies deliver a confirmation that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25)

  -373-  

and (iii) no replacement of the Special Servicer shall be effective until the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. For the sake of clarity, the recommendation of replacement of the Special Servicer by the Operating Advisor and the approval of the Certificateholders of such Qualified Replacement Special Servicer shall not preclude the Directing Certificateholder from appointing a replacement special servicer, provided that such replacement may not be the removed Special Servicer or its Affiliate.

After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event and upon (a) the written direction of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of such Certificates pursuant to Section 4.05) of the Principal Balance Certificates requesting a vote to replace the Special Servicer with a new special servicer designated in such written direction to assume the duties of the Special Servicer hereunder, (b) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses (including any legal fees and any Rating Agency fees and expenses) to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote and which will not be additional expenses of the Trust and (c) delivery by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator and Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (which Rating Agency Confirmation shall be obtained at the expense of such Holders) and confirmation from the applicable rating agencies that such appointment (or replacement) will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the then current ratings of any class of any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice to all Certificateholders of such request on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b) and concurrently by mail, conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard, which requisite affirmative votes shall be received within one hundred-eighty (180) days of the posting of such notice, and if not so received, such votes shall be null and void ab initio. Upon the written direction of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least 66-2/3% of a Certificateholder Quorum of Certificates, the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and appoint the successor special servicer to assume the duties of the Special Servicer (which must be a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer) designated by such Certificateholders.

The Certificate Administrator shall include on each Distribution Date Statement a statement that each Certificateholder may (i) access such notices via the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (ii) register to receive electronic mail notifications when such notices are posted thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Certificateholder’s direction to remove the Special Servicer shall not apply to any Serviced AB Whole Loan that is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period or to any Servicing Shift Whole Loan.

A Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall have the right, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, to replace the Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Serviced AB Whole Loan, so long as (A) each Rating Agency delivers a Rating Agency Confirmation; (B) the successor special servicer has assumed in writing (from and after the date such successor special servicer becomes the Special Servicer) all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Special Servicer under this Agreement from and after the date it becomes the Special Servicer as they relate to any Serviced AB Whole Loan pursuant

  -374-  

to an assumption agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Administrator; and (C) the Certificate Administrator shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Administrator to the effect that (x) the designation of such replacement to serve as Special Servicer is in compliance with this Agreement, (y) such replacement will be bound by the terms of this Agreement with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan and (z) subject to customary qualifications and exceptions, this Agreement will be enforceable against such replacement in accordance with the terms hereof.

The parties hereto acknowledge that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this section, in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement, if a servicer termination event on the part of a Non-Serviced Special Servicer under a Non-Serviced PSA remains unremedied and affects the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, and the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer has not otherwise been terminated, the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan (or the Trustee, acting at the direction of the Directing Certificateholder) shall be entitled to direct the related Non-Serviced Trustee to terminate the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The appointment (or replacement) of the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan will in any event be subject to Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency. A replacement special servicer will be selected by the related Non-Serviced Trustee or, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a control termination event under the related Non-Serviced PSA, by the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder; provided, however, that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan cannot at any time be the Person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was terminated at the direction of the holder of such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, without the prior written consent of the Directing Certificateholder.

If at any time the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith that (i) the Special Servicer is not performing its duties as required hereunder or is otherwise not acting in accordance with the Servicing Standard, and (ii) the replacement of the Special Servicer would be in the best interest of the Certificateholders as a collective whole, the Operating Advisor shall deliver to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, with a copy to the Special Servicer, a written report in the form of Exhibit W attached hereto, setting forth the reasons supporting its recommendation (along with any information the Operating Advisor considered relevant to its recommendation) and recommending a replacement Special Servicer (which form may be modified or supplemented from time to time to cure any ambiguity or error or to incorporate any additional information, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided, further, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in such written recommendation contravene any provision of this Agreement) detailing the reasons supporting its recommendation (along with relevant information justifying its recommendation) and recommending a suggested replacement special servicer to assume the duties of the Special Servicer, which shall be a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer. In such event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice to all Certificateholders of such recommendation and the related report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b), and concurrently by mail conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard. Upon (i) the affirmative vote of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least a majority of a quorum of Certificateholders (which quorum, for this purpose, is the Holders of Certificates that (A) evidence at least 20% of the Voting Rights

  -375-  

(taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the respective Certificate Balances of such Certificates) of all Principal Balance Certificates on an aggregate basis within one hundred eighty (180) days of posting of the Operating Advisor’s recommendation to the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and if not so received, such votes shall be null and void ab initio, and (B) consist of at least three Certificateholders or Certificate Owners that are not Risk Retention Affiliated with each other) and (ii) receipt by the Certificate Administrator following satisfaction of the foregoing clause (i) of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation from the applicable rating agencies that such appointment (or replacement) will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the then current ratings of any class of any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, the Trustee shall (i) terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and appoint a successor special servicer approved by the holders of Certificates evidencing at least a majority of a quorum of Certificateholders (as set forth above) and (ii) promptly notify such outgoing Special Servicer of the effective date of such termination. The reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses of outside counsel) associated with obtaining such Rating Agency Confirmations and administering such vote and the Operating Advisor’s identification of a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer shall be an additional expense of the Trust. In the event that the Trustee does not receive at least a majority of the requested votes, then the Trustee shall have no obligation to remove the Special Servicer. Prior to the appointment of any replacement special servicer, such replacement special servicer shall have agreed to succeed to the obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and to act as the Special Servicer’s successor hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall not be permitted to recommend the replacement of the Special Servicer with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan so long as the related Serviced Companion Noteholder is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period under the related Intercreditor Agreement or with respect to any Servicing Shift Whole Loan. For the sake of clarity, the recommendation of replacement of the Special Servicer by the Operating Advisor and the approval of the Certificateholders of such Qualified Replacement Special Servicer shall not preclude the Directing Certificateholder from appointing a replacement special servicer, provided that such replacement may not be the removed Special Servicer or its Affiliate.

No penalty or fee shall be payable to the terminated Special Servicer with respect to any termination pursuant to this Section 7.01(d). All costs of any such termination made by the Directing Certificateholder without cause shall be paid by the Holders of the Controlling Class.

For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnification of the Operating Advisor in Section 6.04 shall include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.04, any action or claim arising from, or relating to, the Operating Advisor’s determination under this Section 7.01(d) (regarding removal of the Special Servicer), or the result of the vote of the Certificateholders (regarding removal of the Special Servicer).

(e)               The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, as the case may be, from time to time, take all such reasonable actions as are required by it in accordance with the related Servicing Standard in order to prevent the Certificates from being placed on “watch” status or downgraded due to servicing or special servicing, as applicable, concerns by any Rating Agency with respect to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer. In no event shall the remedy for a breach of the foregoing covenant extend beyond termination pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(viii), Section

  -376-  

7.01(a)(ix) and Section 7.01(a)(x) and the resulting operation of Section 7.01(b) and (c). The operation of this subsection (e) shall not be construed to limit the effect of Section 7.01(a)(viii), Section 7.01(a)(ix) and Section 7.01(a)(x).

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) if any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer affects a Serviced Companion Loan, the related holder of a Serviced Companion Loan or the rating on any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, and if the Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated, or (2) if a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer affects only a Serviced Companion Loan, the related holder of a Serviced Companion Loan or the rating on any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, then the Master Servicer may not be terminated by or at the direction of the related holder of such Serviced Companion Loan or the holders of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, but upon the written direction of the related holder of such Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer shall be required to appoint a sub-servicer that will be responsible for servicing the related Serviced Whole Loan.

(g)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.01, with respect to any Excluded Special Servicer Loan, if any, the Special Servicer shall resign as Special Servicer of that Excluded Special Servicer Loan. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, if the applicable Excluded Special Servicer Loan is not also an Excluded Loan, the Directing Certificateholder shall select an Excluded Special Servicer, as successor to the resigning Special Servicer, for the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan in accordance with this Agreement. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event or if at any time the applicable Excluded Special Servicer Loan is also an Excluded Loan, the resigning Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to appoint the related Excluded Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall not have any liability with respect to the actions or inactions of the applicable Excluded Special Servicer or with respect to the identity of the applicable Excluded Special Servicer. It shall be a condition to any such appointment that (i) the Rating Agencies confirm that the appointment would not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any of their then-current ratings of the Certificates and each NRSRO hired to provide ratings with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities makes the equivalent confirmation, (ii) the related Excluded Special Servicer is a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer and (iii) the related Excluded Special Servicer delivers to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator and any applicable Other Depositor and Other Certificate Administrator, the information, if any, required under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act regarding itself in its role as Excluded Special Servicer.

If at any time the Special Servicer that had previously acted as the Special Servicer is no longer a Borrower Party with respect to an Excluded Special Servicer Loan (including, without limitation, as a result of the related Mortgaged Property becoming REO Property), (1) the related Excluded Special Servicer shall resign, (2) the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan shall no longer be an Excluded Special Servicer Loan, (3) such original Special Servicer shall become the Special Servicer again for such related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and (4) such original Special Servicer shall be entitled to all special servicing compensation with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan earned during such time on and after such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan is no longer an Excluded Special Servicer Loan.

  -377-  

The applicable Excluded Special Servicer shall perform all of the obligations of the Special Servicer for the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan and shall be entitled to all special servicing compensation with respect to such Excluded Special Servicer Loan earned during such time as the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan is an Excluded Special Servicer Loan (provided that the Special Servicer shall remain entitled to all other special servicing compensation with respect to all Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans that are not Excluded Special Servicer Loans during such time).

If a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer, a related Excluded Special Servicer, or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has actual knowledge that a Mortgage Loan is no longer an Excluded Loan or an Excluded Special Servicer Loan, as applicable, the Master Servicer, the related Excluded Special Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide prompt written notice thereof to each of the other parties to this Agreement.

Section 7.02        Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. On and after the time the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, either resigns pursuant to subsection (a) of the first sentence of Section 6.05 or receives a notice of termination for cause pursuant to Section 7.01(b), and provided that no acceptable successor has been appointed by the resigning Master Servicer or Special Servicer pursuant to Section 6.05 and no acceptable successor has been appointed within the time period specified in Section 7.01(c), the Trustee shall be the successor to such party, until such successor to that Master Servicer or that Special Servicer, as applicable, is appointed as provided in this Section 7.02, by the Directing Certificateholder as provided in Section 7.01(d), or by the resigning Master Servicer or Special Servicer pursuant to Section 6.05, as applicable, in all respects in its capacity as the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to, and have the benefit of, all of the rights, (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) benefits, responsibilities, duties, liabilities and limitations on liability relating thereto and that arise thereafter placed on or for the benefit of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the terminated party’s failure under Section 7.01 to provide information or moneys required hereunder shall not be considered a default by such successor hereunder. The appointment of a successor master servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Master Servicer which may have arisen prior to its termination as Master Servicer, and the appointment of a successor special servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Special Servicer which may have arisen prior to its termination as Special Servicer. The Trustee in its capacity as successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not be liable for any of the representations and warranties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, herein or in any related document or agreement, for any acts or omissions of the predecessor master servicer or special servicer or for any losses incurred by the predecessor Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.06 hereunder, nor shall the Trustee be required to purchase any Mortgage Loan hereunder solely as a result of its obligations as successor master servicer or special servicer, as the case may be. Subject to Section 3.11, as compensation therefor, the Trustee as successor master servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fees and all fees relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Companion Loans which that Master Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer had continued to act hereunder, including but not limited to any income or other benefit from any Permitted Investment pursuant to Section 3.06, and subject to Section 3.11, and the Trustee as successor to the Special Servicer shall be entitled to the Special Servicing Fees

  -378-  

to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had continued to act hereunder. Should the Trustee succeed to the capacity of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Trustee shall be afforded the same standard of care and liability as the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder notwithstanding anything in Section 8.01 to the contrary, but only with respect to actions taken by it in its role as successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as the case may be, and not with respect to its role as Trustee hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to act as successor to that Master Servicer or that Special Servicer, as applicable, or shall, if it is unable to so act, or if the Trustee is not approved as a servicer by each Rating Agency, or if the Directing Certificateholder (solely with respect to the Special Servicer) ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) or the Holders of Certificates entitled to 25% or more of the Voting Rights so request in writing to the Trustee, promptly appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing institution which meets the criteria set forth in Section 6.05 and otherwise herein, as the successor to that Master Servicer or that Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder. No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder shall be effective until (i) the assumption in writing by the successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of all its responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder that arise thereafter, (ii) receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), (iii) such appointment (solely with respect to the Special Servicer) has been approved (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) by the Directing Certificateholder, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld and (iv) the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 hereof and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder, unless the Trustee shall be prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as herein above provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as described herein, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation with respect to a successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as the case may be, shall be in excess of that permitted the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder. The Trustee, the non-terminated Master Servicer or the non-terminated Special Servicer and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses associated with the transfer of the servicing function (other than with respect to a termination without cause) under this Agreement shall be borne by the predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable. If such predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer (as the case may be) has not reimbursed the party requesting such termination or the successor master servicer or special servicer for such expenses within ninety (90) days after the presentation of reasonable documentation, such expense shall be reimbursed by the Trust; provided that the

  -379-  

terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of its liability for such expenses. If and to the extent that the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer has not reimbursed such costs and expenses, the party requesting such termination shall have an affirmative obligation to take all reasonable actions to collect such expenses on behalf of the Trust. In the event of a termination without cause, such costs and expenses shall be borne by the party requesting such termination, or as otherwise set forth herein; provided that the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall not bear any such costs and expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Trustee is terminating the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in accordance with this Agreement at the direction of any party or parties permitted to direct the Trustee to so terminate the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, the Trustee shall not have any liability for such expenses pursuant to this paragraph.

Section 7.03        Notification to Certificateholders. (a) Upon any resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 6.05, any termination of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 or any appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02, the Certificate Administrator shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.

(b)               Not later than the later of (i) sixty (60) days after the occurrence of any event which constitutes or, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a Servicer Termination Event and (ii) five (5) days after the Certificate Administrator would be deemed to have notice of the occurrence of such an event in accordance with Section 8.02(vii), the Certificate Administrator shall transmit by mail to the Depositor and all Certificateholders (and, if a Serviced Whole Loan is affected, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder) notice of such occurrence, unless such default shall have been cured.

Section 7.04        Waiver of Servicer Termination Events. The Holders of Certificates representing at least 66-2/3% of the Voting Rights allocated to each Class of Certificates affected by any Servicer Termination Event hereunder may waive such Servicer Termination Event; provided, however, that a Servicer Termination Event under clause (i), (ii), (viii), (ix) or (x) of Section 7.01(a) may be waived only with the consent of all of the Certificateholders of the affected Classes, and a Servicer Termination Event under clause (iii) of Section 7.01(a) (with respect to obligations under Article XI) may be waived only with the consent of the Depositor. Upon any such waiver of a Servicer Termination Event, subject to the rights of any affected holder of a Serviced Companion Loan under Section 7.01(c) or Section 7.01(f), such Servicer Termination Event shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. Upon any such waiver of a Servicer Termination Event by Certificateholders, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with enforcement action taken with respect to such Servicer Termination Event prior to such waiver from the Trust. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Servicer Termination Event or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, for purposes of waiving any Servicer Termination Event pursuant to this Section 7.04, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor shall be entitled to the same Voting Rights with respect to the matters described above as they would if any other Person held such Certificates.

  -380-  

Section 7.05        Trustee as Maker of Advances. In the event that the Master Servicer fails to fulfill its obligations hereunder to make any Advances and such failure remains uncured, the Trustee shall perform such obligations (x) within five (5) Business Days following such failure by the Master Servicer with respect to Servicing Advances resulting in a Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(a)(iii) to the extent a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such failure with respect to such Servicing Advances and (y) by noon, New York City time, on the related Distribution Date with respect to P&I Advances pursuant to the Certificate Administrator’s notice of failure pursuant to Section 4.03(a) unless such failure has been cured. With respect to any such Advance made by the Trustee, the Trustee shall succeed to all of the Master Servicer’s rights with respect to Advances hereunder, including, without limitation, the Master Servicer’s rights of reimbursement and interest on each Advance at the Reimbursement Rate, and rights to determine that a proposed Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Servicing Advance, as the case may be, (without regard to any impairment of any such rights of reimbursement caused by the Master Servicer’s default in its obligations hereunder); provided, however, that if Advances made by the Trustee and the Master Servicer shall at any time be outstanding, or any interest on any Advance shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay such Advances and the interest thereon hereunder shall be applied entirely to the Advances outstanding to the Trustee, until such Advances shall have been repaid in full, together with all interest accrued thereon, prior to reimbursement of the Master Servicer for such Advances. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any notice given with respect to a Nonrecoverable Advance hereunder.

ARTICLE VIII

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE AND THE CERTIFICATE ADMINISTRATOR

Section 8.01        Duties of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator.  (a)  The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event and after the curing or waiving of all Servicer Termination Events which may have occurred, undertake to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. If a Servicer Termination Event occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. Any permissive right of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator contained in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty.

  -381-  

(b)               The Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement (other than the Mortgage Files, the review of which is specifically governed by the terms of Article II, the Diligence Files, any CREFC^® reports and any information delivered for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website or the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website), shall examine them to determine whether they conform to the requirements of this Agreement. If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall notify the party providing such instrument and requesting the correction thereof. The Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument furnished by the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or another Person, and accepted by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator in good faith, pursuant to this Agreement.

(c)               No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct or bad faith; provided, however, that:

the Certificate Administrator in all of its capacities hereunder, including Custodian, Certificate Registrar and Authenticating Agent.

  -387-  

(ii) pay such tax at no expense to the Trust or (iii) administer the Trust REMICs from a state and local jurisdiction that does not impose such a tax.

Section 8.07        Resignation and Removal of the Trustee and Certificate Administrator.

A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificateholders and the Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, by the Depositor. If no successor trustee or certificate administrator shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within ninety (90) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee or Certificate Administrator may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee or certificate administrator, as applicable, and such petition will be an expense of the Trust.

(b)               If at any time the Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 (and in the case of the Certificate Administrator, Section 5.08) and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Depositor or the Master Servicer, or if at any time the Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or if the Trustee or Certificate Administrator (if different than the Trustee) shall fail to timely publish any report to be delivered, published or otherwise made available by the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 4.02 and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of five (5) days, or if the Certificate Administrator fails to make distributions required pursuant to Section 4.01 or Section 9.01, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and appoint a successor trustee or certificate administrator acceptable to the requesting Master Servicer, by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee or Certificate Administrator so removed and to the successor trustee or certificate administrator in the case of the removal of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificateholders by the Depositor. If no successor trustee or certificate administrator shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within ninety (90) days after the giving of such notice of removal, the removed Trustee or Certificate Administrator may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee or certificate administrator, as applicable, at the expense of the Trust.

  -388-  

(c)               The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 75% of the Voting Rights may, upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, with or without cause, remove the Trustee or Certificate Administrator and appoint a successor trustee or certificate administrator by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Master Servicer, one complete set to the Trustee or Certificate Administrator so removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Depositor, the Special Servicer and the remaining Certificateholders by the Master Servicer.

(d)               Any resignation or removal of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator and appointment of a successor trustee or certificate administrator pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall not become effective until (i) acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee or certificate administrator as provided in Section 8.08 and (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan.

If the same party is acting as Trustee and Certificate Administrator pursuant to this Agreement, any removal of either such party in its capacity as Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall also result in such party’s removal in its capacity as Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and the Depositor shall appoint a successor certificate administrator and a successor trustee, in each instance meeting the eligibility requirements set forth hereunder.

In the event of a resignation of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, in any of their respective capacities (other than a resignation of the Trustee that is required solely due to a change in law or a conflict of interest arising after the Closing Date that is not waived by all of the parties in conflict or is unwaivable), such resignation shall be effective only as to such capacity as designated on the notice of resignation required under this Section 8.07; provided, however, that a resignation of the Certificate Administrator shall be deemed to be a resignation of the Certificate Administrator in each of its capacities as Custodian, Certificate Registrar and 17g5 Information Provider, unless otherwise specified.

Upon any succession of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator under this Agreement, the predecessor Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to the payment of accrued and unpaid compensation and reimbursement as provided for under this Agreement for services rendered and expenses incurred (including without limitation, unreimbursed Advances).

(a) Any successor trustee or certificate administrator appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and to its predecessor Trustee or Certificate Administrator an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall become effective and such successor trustee or certificate administrator without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as Trustee or Certificate Administrator herein. The predecessor Trustee shall deliver to the successor trustee all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements held by it hereunder (other than any Mortgage Files at the time held on its behalf by the Custodian, which Custodian, at Custodian’s option shall become the agent of the successor trustee), and the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required to more fully and certainly vest and confirm in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations, and to enable the successor trustee to perform its obligations hereunder.

(c)               Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then-separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.

(d)               Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

(e)               The appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee under this Section 8.10 shall not relieve the Trustee of its duties and responsibilities hereunder.

Section 8.11        Appointment of Custodians. The Certificate Administrator is hereby appointed as the Custodian to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files. The Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to supervision by federal or state authority except with respect to the initial custodian, shall have combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and shall be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File. The Custodian shall be subject to the same obligations and standard of care as would be imposed on the Certificate Administrator hereunder in connection with the retention of Mortgage Files directly by the Certificate Administrator. Upon termination or resignation of the Custodian, the Certificate Administrator may appoint another Custodian meeting the foregoing requirements. The appointment of one or more Custodians by the Certificate Administrator shall not relieve the Certificate Administrator from any of its obligations hereunder, and the Certificate Administrator shall remain responsible for all acts and omissions of any Custodian other than the initial Custodian. Any Custodian appointed hereunder must maintain a fidelity bond and errors and omissions policy in an amount customary for Custodians which serve in such capacity in commercial mortgage loan securitization transactions, or may self-insure.

Section 8.12        Representations and Warranties of the Trustee. The Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, each Serviced Companion Noteholder and the Certificate Administrator for the benefit of the Certificateholders, as of the Closing Date, that:

TERMINATION

Section 9.01        Termination upon Repurchase or Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans. Subject to this Section 9.01 and Section 9.02, the Trust and the respective obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement of the Certificate Administrator (other than the obligations of the Certificate Administrator to provide for and make payments to Certificateholders as hereafter set forth), the Certificate Registrar, the Custodian (other than the obligations of the Custodian to deliver any remaining Mortgage Files with any necessary assignments, endorsements and other instruments as hereafter set forth), the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee, shall terminate upon payment (or provision for payment) to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Certificate Administrator and required hereunder to be so paid on the Distribution Date following the earlier to occur of (i) the final payment (or related Advance) or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property (as applicable) subject hereto, (ii) the purchase or other liquidation by the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, in that order of priority, of all the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund at a price equal to (a) the Termination Purchase Amount, plus (b) the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to such termination, other than in the case of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, that is a purchaser of such Mortgage Loans, minus (c) solely in the case where the Master Servicer is exercising such purchase right, the aggregate amount of unreimbursed Advances, together with any interest accrued and payable to the Master Servicer in respect of such Advances in accordance with Sections 3.03(d) and 4.03(d) and any unpaid Servicing Fees, remaining outstanding and payable solely to the Master Servicer (which items shall be deemed to have been paid or reimbursed to the Master Servicer in connection with such purchase) or (iii) so long as the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E-RR Certificates are no longer outstanding, the voluntary exchange by the Sole Certificateholder of all the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) and the payment or deemed payment by such exchanging party or the Termination Purchase Amount for the remaining Mortgage Loans and REO Properties remaining in the Trust Fund; provided, however, that in no event shall the Trust created hereby continue beyond the expiration of twenty-one (21) years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date hereof. Upon termination of the Trust pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Custodian shall release or cause to be released to the Master Servicer, at the address provided in Section 13.05 of this Agreement or to such other address designated by the Master Servicer in writing, any Mortgage Files remaining in its possession.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E-RR Certificates are no longer outstanding (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right, with the consent of

  -396-  

the Master Servicer, to exchange all of the outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates together with the payment or deemed payment of the Termination Purchase Amount) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (iii) of the first paragraph of this Section 9.01 by giving written notice to all the parties hereto no later than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of exchange. In the event that the Sole Certificateholder elects to exchange all of the outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust in accordance with the preceding sentence, such Sole Certificateholder, not later than the Distribution Date on which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur, shall remit for deposit in the Collection Account an amount in immediately available funds equal to (a) the Termination Purchase Amount plus (b) all amounts due and owing to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator hereunder through the date of the liquidation of the Trust that may be withdrawn from the Collection Account, or an escrow account acceptable to the respective parties hereto, pursuant to Section 3.05(a) or that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.05(b), but only to the extent that such amounts are not already on deposit in the Collection Account, and be deemed to pay to the Trust (which amount shall be further deemed distributed to the Holders of all outstanding Certificates) an amount equal to the Termination Purchase Amount. In addition, the Master Servicer shall transfer all amounts required to be transferred to the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on the P&I Advance Date related to such Distribution Date in which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur from the Collection Account pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 3.04(b) (provided, however, that if a Serviced Whole Loan is secured by REO Property, the portion of the above-described purchase price allocable to such Trust’s portion of REO Property shall initially be deposited into the related REO Account). Upon confirmation that such final deposits have been made and following the surrender of all its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) on the applicable Distribution Date, the Custodian shall, upon receipt of a Request for Release from the Master Servicer, release or cause to be released to the Sole Certificateholder or any designee thereof, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments furnished to it by the Sole Certificateholder as shall be necessary to effectuate transfer of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties remaining in the Trust Fund, and the Trust shall be liquidated in accordance with Section 9.02. Solely for federal income tax purposes, the Sole Certificateholder shall be deemed to have purchased the assets of the Lower-Tier REMIC for an amount equal to the remaining Certificate Balance of the Principal Balance Certificates, plus accrued, unpaid interest with respect thereto, and the Certificate Administrator shall credit such amounts against amounts distributable in respect of such Certificates and Related Lower-Tier Regular Interests.

The obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Companion Paying Agent shall terminate with respect to any Companion Loan to the extent (i) its related Serviced Mortgage Loan has been paid in full or is no longer part of the Trust Fund and (ii) no amounts payable by the related Companion Holder to or for the benefit of the Trust or any party hereto in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement remain due and owing.

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, in that order of priority, may, at their option, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of

  -397-  

remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of the first paragraph of this Section 9.01 by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, and the other parties hereto no later than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of purchase; provided, however, that the Holders of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, or the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in that order) may so elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund only on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Preliminary Statement. This purchase shall terminate the Trust and retire the then-outstanding Certificates. In the event that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer purchases, or the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates purchase, all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as the case may be, shall deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account not later than the P&I Advance Date relating to the Distribution Date on which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur, an amount in immediately available funds equal to the above-described purchase price (exclusive of any portion thereof payable to any Person other than the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 3.05(a), which portion shall be deposited in the Collection Account). In addition, the Master Servicer shall transfer to the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account all amounts required to be transferred thereto on such P&I Advance Date from the Collection Account pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 3.04(b), together with any other amounts on deposit in the Collection Account that would otherwise be held for future distribution. Upon confirmation that such final deposits and payments have been made, the Custodian shall release or cause to be released to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as applicable, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments furnished to it by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to effectuate transfer of the Mortgage Loans as assets of the Trust and REO Properties remaining in the Trust Fund.

For purposes of this Section 9.01, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class shall have the first option to terminate the Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC, then the Special Servicer, then the Master Servicer, and then the Holders of the Class R Certificates. For purposes of this Section 9.01, the Directing Certificateholder with the consent of the Holders of the Controlling Class, shall act on behalf of the Holders of the Controlling Class in purchasing the assets of the Trust and terminating the Trust.

Notice of any termination pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall be given promptly by the Certificate Administrator by letter to the Certificateholders, each Serviced Companion Noteholder and the 17g-5 Information Provider in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.13(c) (who shall promptly post a copy of such additional notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.13(c)) and, if not previously notified pursuant to this Section 9.01, to the other parties hereto mailed (a) in the event such notice is given in connection with the purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans is an asset of the Trust and

  -398-  

each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, not earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th day of the month next preceding the month of the final distribution on the Certificates, or (b) otherwise during the month of such final distribution on or before the P&I Advance Determination Date in such month, in each case specifying (i) the Distribution Date upon which the Trust will terminate and final payment of the Certificates will be made, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location therein designated.

After transferring the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and the amount of any Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges distributable to the Regular Certificates pursuant to Section 4.01(f) to the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.04(b) and upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates by the Certificateholders on the final Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to each Certificateholder so presenting and surrendering its Certificates (i) such Certificateholder’s Percentage Interest of that portion of the amounts then on deposit in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account that are allocable to payments on the Class of Certificates so presented and (ii) any remaining amount shall be distributed to the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest or the Class UR Interest, as applicable. Amounts transferred from the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account to the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account as of the final Distribution Date, shall be distributed in termination and liquidation of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Class LR Interest in accordance with Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(c), Section 4.01(f) and Section 4.01(g). Any funds not distributed on such Distribution Date shall be set aside and held uninvested in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders not presenting and surrendering their Certificates in the aforesaid manner and shall be disposed of in accordance with this Section 9.01 and Section 4.01(j).

Section 9.02        Additional Termination Requirements. (a) In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer purchases, or the Holders of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates purchase, all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as provided in Section 9.01, the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC, as applicable, shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements, which meet the definition of a “qualified liquidation” in Section 860F(a)(4) of the Code:

(i)                             the Certificate Administrator shall specify the date of adoption of the plan of complete liquidation (which shall be the date of mailing of the notice specified in Section 9.01) in a statement attached to each of the related Trust REMIC’s final Tax Returns pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-1;

(ii)                          during the 90-day liquidation period and at or prior to the time of the making of the final payment on the Certificates, the Certificate Administrator on behalf of the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the related Trust REMIC(s) to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as applicable, for cash; and

(iii)                       within such 90-day liquidation period and immediately following the making of the final payment on the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Certificates, the

  -399-  

Certificate Administrator shall distribute or credit, or cause to be distributed or credited, to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest (in the case of the Lower-Tier REMIC) and in respect of the Class UR Interest (in the case of the Upper-Tier REMIC) all cash on hand (other than cash retained to meet claims), and the Trust (if applicable) or the related Trust REMIC(s) shall terminate at that time.

Section 10.01    REMIC Administration. (a)  The Certificate Administrator shall make elections or cause elections to be made to treat each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the Code and, if necessary, under Applicable State and Local Tax Law. Each such election will be made on IRS Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Regular Certificates are issued. For the purposes of the REMIC election in respect of the Upper-Tier REMIC, each Class of Regular Certificates shall be designated as a class of “regular interests” and the Class UR Interest shall be designated as the sole class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC. For purposes of the REMIC election in respect of the Lower-Tier REMIC, each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests shall be designated as a class of “regular interests” and the Class LR Interest shall be designated as the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC. None of the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall permit the creation of any “interests” (within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code) in either Trust REMIC other than the foregoing interests.

(b)               [RESERVED.]

(c)               The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “startup day” (“Startup Day”) of each Trust REMIC within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.

(d)               The Certificate Administrator shall act on behalf of each Trust REMIC in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving either such Trust REMIC and shall represent each such Trust REMIC in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto. The legal expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ or accountants’ fees, and costs of any such proceeding and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses of the Trust and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties on deposit in the Collection Account as provided by Section 3.05 unless such legal expenses and costs are incurred by reason of the Certificate Administrator’s willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence. The Certificate Administrator is hereby designated as the “partnership representative” (within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code) of each Trust REMIC. By their acceptance thereof, the Holders of the Class R Certificates hereby agree to such designation of the Certificate Administrator as the “partnership representative” of each Trust REMIC.

  -400-  

(e)               The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared and shall file, or cause to be filed, all of the Tax Returns that it determines are required with respect to each Trust REMIC created hereunder beginning with the taxable year ending on December 31, 2024, and shall cause the Trustee to sign (and the Trustee shall timely sign) such Tax Returns in a timely manner. The ordinary expenses of preparing such returns shall be borne by the Certificate Administrator without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed with the IRS, on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC, an application for a taxpayer identification number for such Trust REMIC on IRS Form SS-4 or obtain such number by other permissible means. The Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for the preparation of the related IRS Form W-9, if such form is requested. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the information contained therein and is hereby directed to execute such IRS Form W-9; provided, however, the Certificate Administrator shall also be directed to execute such IRS Form W-9 (in lieu of the Trustee) if permitted by IRS regulations.

(f)                The Certificate Administrator shall provide or cause to be provided (i) to any Transferor of a Class R Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the Transfer of such Class R Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified Organization, or in the case of a Transfer to an agent thereof, to such agent, (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or the REMIC Provisions including reports relating to interest, original issue discount and market discount or premium (using the Prepayment Assumption) and (iii) to the IRS on Form 8811, within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, the name, title, address and telephone number of the Certificate Administrator as the “partnership representative” of each of the Trust REMICs created hereunder.

(g)               The Certificate Administrator shall take such actions and shall cause the Trust to take such actions as are reasonably within the Certificate Administrator’s control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein as shall be necessary to maintain the status of each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and the Trustee shall assist the Certificate Administrator to the extent reasonably requested by the Certificate Administrator to do so. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall knowingly or intentionally take any action, cause the Trust to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon either Trust REMIC or the Trust (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code, but not including the tax on “net income from foreclosure property”) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Certificate Administrator receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or, if such party fails to pay such expense, and the Certificate Administrator determines that taking such action is in the best interest of the Trust and the Certificateholders, at the expense of the Trust, but in no event at the expense of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to the Trust or either Trust REMIC created hereunder, cause the loss of such status or, unless the Certificate Administrator determines in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust against such tax, result in the imposition of such a tax (not including a tax on “net income from foreclosure property”). The Trustee shall not take or fail to take any action (whether or not

  -401-  

authorized hereunder) as to which the Certificate Administrator has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action. The Certificate Administrator may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take the action not expressly permitted by this Agreement, but in no event at the expense of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee. At all times as may be required by the Code, the Certificate Administrator will to the extent within its control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein, maintain substantially all of the assets of each Trust REMIC as “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(h)               In the event that any applicable federal, state or local tax, including interest, penalties or assessments, additional amounts or additions to tax, is imposed on either Trust REMIC, such tax shall be charged against amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the Certificates, except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 10.01(h); provided that with respect to the estimated amount of tax imposed on any “net income from foreclosure property” pursuant to Section 860G(c) of the Code or any similar tax imposed by a state or local tax authority, the Special Servicer shall retain in the related REO Account a reserve for the payment of such taxes in such amounts and at such times as it shall deem appropriate (or as advised by the Certificate Administrator in writing), and shall remit to the Master Servicer such reserved amounts as the Master Servicer shall request in order to pay such taxes. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and to actually pay, such tax as is estimated to be legally owed by either Trust REMIC (but such authorization shall not prevent the Certificate Administrator from contesting, at the expense of the Trust (other than as a consequence of a breach of its obligations under this Agreement), any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The Certificate Administrator is hereby authorized to and shall segregate, into a separate non-interest bearing account, the net income from any “prohibited transaction” under Section 860F(a) of the Code or the amount of any taxable contribution to either Trust REMIC after the Startup Day that is subject to tax under Section 860G(d) of the Code and use such income or amount, to the extent necessary, to pay such prohibited transactions tax. To the extent that any such tax (other than any such tax paid in respect of “net income from foreclosure property”) is paid to the IRS or applicable state or local tax authorities, the Certificate Administrator shall retain an equal amount from future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of Class R Certificates (as applicable) and shall distribute such retained amounts, (x) to the Lower-Tier REMIC to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses arising therefrom, (y) in the case of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, to the Upper-Tier REMIC to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses, arising therefrom and then to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest in the manner specified in Section 4.01(c) and (z) in the case of the Upper-Tier REMIC, to the Holders of the Principal Balance Certificates in the manner specified in Section 4.01(a) to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses arising therefrom and then to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class UR Interest. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be responsible for any taxes imposed on either Trust REMIC except to the extent such taxes arise as a consequence of a breach of their respective obligations under this Agreement which breach constitutes willful misconduct, bad faith, or negligence by such party.

  -402-  

(i)                              The Certificate Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain or cause to be maintained books and records with respect to each Trust REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual basis or as otherwise may be required by the REMIC Provisions.

(j)                              Following the Startup Day, neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Trustee shall accept any contributions of assets to either Trust REMIC unless the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to make such contribution) to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in such Trust REMIC will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

(k)                           Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Trustee shall enter into any arrangement by which the Trust or either Trust REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit the Trust or either Trust REMIC to receive any income from assets other than “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(l)                              Solely for the purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Regular Certificates is the Rated Final Distribution Date.

(m)                         None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall sell, dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection with (i) the default, imminent default or foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust, (iii) the termination of the Trust pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement or (iv) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or Article III of this Agreement) or acquire any assets for the Trust or either Trust REMIC or sell or dispose of any investments in the Collection Account or the REO Account for gain unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel that such sale, disposition or substitution will not (a) affect adversely the status of either Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (b) unless the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has determined in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust against such tax, cause the Trust or either Trust REMIC to be subject to a tax on “prohibited transactions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

(n)                           The Certificate Administrator’s authority under this Agreement includes the authority to make, and the Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to make, any elections allowed under the Code (i) to avoid the application of Section 6221 of the Code (or successor provisions) to either Trust REMIC and (ii) to avoid payment by either Trust REMIC under Section 6225 of the Code (or successor provisions) of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on any Holder of a Class R Certificate, past or present. Each Holder of a Class R Certificate agrees, by acquiring such Certificate, to any such elections, and agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Certificate Administrator in connection with any such elections the Certificate Administrator determines in its discretion are necessary or advisable.

Section 10.02    Use of Agents. (a)  The Trustee shall execute all of its obligations and duties under this Article X through its Corporate Trust Office (including, as applicable, any

(a)  The Depositor shall provide or cause to be provided to the Certificate Administrator within ten (10) days after the Depositor receives a request from the Certificate Administrator, all information or data that the Certificate Administrator reasonably determines to be relevant for tax purposes as to the valuations and issue prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the price, yield, Prepayment Assumptions and projected cash flow of the Certificates.

(b)               The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each furnish such reports, certifications and information, and upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, access to such books and records maintained thereby, as may relate to the Certificates or the Trust and as shall be reasonably requested by the Certificate Administrator in order to enable it to perform its duties hereunder.

(a)  The Certificate Administrator may appoint at the Certificate Administrator’s expense, one or more REMIC Administrators, which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Certificate Administrator in performing the functions set forth in Section 10.01 herein. The Certificate Administrator shall cause any such REMIC Administrator to execute and deliver to the Certificate Administrator an instrument in which REMIC Administrator shall agree to act in such capacity, with the obligations and responsibilities herein. The appointment of a REMIC Administrator shall not relieve the Certificate Administrator from any of its obligations hereunder, and the Certificate Administrator shall remain responsible and liable for all acts and omissions of the REMIC Administrator. Each REMIC Administrator must be acceptable to the Certificate Administrator and must be organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State and be subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. In the absence of any other Person appointed in accordance herewith acting as REMIC Administrator, the Certificate Administrator hereby agrees to act in such capacity in accordance with the terms hereof. If Computershare Trust Company, National Association is removed as Certificate Administrator, then Computershare Trust Company, National Association shall be terminated as REMIC Administrator.

(b)               Any Person into which any REMIC Administrator may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion, or consolidation to which any REMIC Administrator shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate agency business of any REMIC Administrator, shall continue to be the REMIC Administrator without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Certificate Administrator or the REMIC Administrator.

ARTICLE XI

EXCHANGE ACT REPORTING AND REGULATION AB COMPLIANCE

Section 11.01    Intent of the Parties; Reasonableness. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the purpose of Article XI of this Agreement is to facilitate compliance by the Depositor (and any Other Depositor of any Other Securitization that includes a Serviced Companion Loan) with the provisions of Regulation AB and the related rules and regulations of the Commission. The Depositor shall not exercise its rights to request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions other than in reasonable good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and, in each case, the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. The parties hereto acknowledge that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff, and agree to comply with requests made by the Depositor (or any Other Depositor or Other Trustee of any Other Securitization that includes a Serviced Companion Loan) in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of such evolving interpretations of Regulation AB (to the extent such interpretations require compliance and are not “grandfathered”). In connection with the BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-5C25, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C25, and any Other Securitization subject to Regulation AB that includes a Serviced Companion Loan, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Custodian and the Certificate Administrator shall cooperate fully with the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, and any Other Depositor, Other Trustee and Other Certificate Administrator of any Other Securitization that includes a Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, to deliver or make available to the Depositor or the Certificate Administrator, and any such Other Depositor, Other Trustee or Other Certificate Administrator, as applicable (including any of its assignees or

  -405-  

designees), any and all statements, reports, certifications, records and any other information (in its possession or reasonably attainable) necessary in the reasonable good faith determination of the Depositor or such Other Depositor, as applicable, to permit the Depositor or such Other Depositor, as applicable, to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and any Sub-Servicer, or the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (and the related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable), reasonably believed by the Depositor or the related Other Depositor to be necessary in order to effect such compliance. Each party to this Agreement shall have a reasonable period of time to comply with any written request made under this Section 11.01, but in any event, shall, upon reasonable advance written request, provide information in sufficient time to allow the Depositor and each Other Depositor to satisfy any related filing requirements. For purposes of this Article XI, to the extent that any party has an obligation to exercise commercially reasonable efforts to cause a third party to perform, such party hereunder shall not be required to bring any legal action against such third party in connection with such obligation.

Section 11.02    Succession; Subcontractors. (a) As a condition to the succession to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or to any Sub-Servicer (but only if such Sub-Servicer is a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2)) as servicer or sub-servicer or successor to the Certificate Administrator under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, such Sub-Servicer or Certificate Administrator may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or to any such Sub-Servicer or Certificate Administrator, the person removing and replacing the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or Certificate Administrator shall provide to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and each Other Depositor, as applicable, at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the effective date of such succession or appointment (or such shorter period as is agreed to by the Depositor), (x) written notice to the Depositor, the Other Depositor and the Other Certificate Administrator of such succession or appointment and (y) in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information relating to such successor reasonably requested by the Depositor, Other Depositor or Other Certificate Administrator in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act); provided, however, that if disclosing such information prior to such effective date would violate any applicable law or confidentiality agreement, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any Additional Servicer or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, shall submit such disclosure to the Depositor and the Other Depositor no later than the effective date of such succession or appointment.

(b)               Each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Sub-Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator (each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator and each Sub-Servicer, for purposes of this Section 11.02, a “Servicer”) is permitted to utilize one or more Subcontractors to perform certain of its obligations hereunder. If such Subcontractor will be a Servicing Function Participant, such Servicer shall promptly upon written request provide to the Depositor or any Mortgage Loan Seller (and any Other Trustee, Other Certificate Administrator and Other Depositor related to any Other Securitization that includes a related Serviced Companion Loan) a written description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor, such

  -406-  

Mortgage Loan Seller or such Other Trustee, Other Certificate Administrator or Other Depositor, as applicable) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by such Servicer, specifying (i) the identity of such Subcontractor and (ii) the elements of the Servicing Criteria that will be addressed in assessments of compliance provided by each such Subcontractor. As a condition to the utilization by such Servicer of any Subcontractor determined to be a Servicing Function Participant, such Servicer shall (i) with respect to any such Subcontractor engaged by such Servicer that is an Initial Sub-Servicer, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause, and (ii) with respect to any other Subcontractor with which it has entered into a servicing relationship, cause such Subcontractor used by such Servicer for the benefit of the Depositor and the Trustee (and any Other Trustee, Other Certificate Administrator and Other Depositor related to any Other Securitization that includes a related Serviced Companion Loan) to comply with the provisions of Section 11.10 and Section 11.11 of this Agreement to the same extent as if such Subcontractor were such Servicer. With respect to any Servicing Function Participant engaged by such Servicer that is an Initial Sub-Servicer, such Servicer shall be responsible for using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, and with respect to each other Servicing Function Participant engaged by such Servicer, such Servicer shall obtain from each such Servicing Function Participant and deliver to the applicable Persons any assessment of compliance report and related accountant’s attestation required to be delivered by such Subcontractor under Section 11.10 and Section 11.11, in each case, as and when required to be delivered. For the avoidance of doubt, the Custodian shall not be permitted to utilize any Subcontractor to perform any of its obligations hereunder.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Servicer engages a Subcontractor, other than an Initial Sub-Servicer in connection with the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, such Servicer shall be responsible for determining whether such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and whether any such Subcontractor meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB. If a Servicer determines, pursuant to the preceding sentence, that such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB, then such Subcontractor shall be deemed to be a Sub-Servicer for purposes of this Agreement, the engagement of such Sub-Servicer shall not be effective unless and until notice is given to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator of any such Sub-Servicer and Sub-Servicing Agreement. Other than with respect to the Initial Sub-Servicer, no Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be effective until fifteen (15) days after such written notice is received by the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator (or such shorter period as is agreed to by the Depositor). Such notice shall contain all information reasonably necessary to enable the Certificate Administrator to accurately and timely report the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).

(d)               In connection with the succession to the Trustee under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Trustee may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Trustee, the Trustee shall deliver written notice to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider, which shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), in each case at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the effective date of such succession or appointment (or if such prior notice is violative of applicable law or any applicable confidentiality agreement, no later than one (1) Business Day after such effective date of succession) and shall furnish to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to

  -407-  

the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, all information reasonably necessary for the Certificate Administrator to accurately and timely report, pursuant to Section 11.07, the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).

(e)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article XI, in connection with any Sub-Servicer and/or any Mortgage Loan that is the subject of an Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement, with respect to all matters related to Regulation AB, the Master Servicer shall not have any obligation other than to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Sub-Servicer to comply with its obligations under such Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(f)                Any notice and/or information furnished or required to be furnished pursuant to this Section 11.02 shall also be provided to each Other Depositor and each Other Certificate Administrator (to the extent the information relates to a party that services, specially services or is trustee for a Serviced Companion Loan) in the same time frame as set forth in this Section 11.02.

Section 11.03    Filing Obligations. (a)  The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the satisfaction of the Trust’s reporting requirements under the Exchange Act. Pursuant to Sections 11.04, 11.05, 11.06 and 11.07 of this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall prepare for execution by the Depositor any Forms 10-D, ABS-EE, 10-K and 8-K required by the Exchange Act, in order to permit the timely filing thereof, and the Certificate Administrator shall file (via the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (“EDGAR”)) such Forms executed by the Depositor.

Each party hereto shall be entitled to rely on the information in the Prospectus or this Agreement with respect to the identity of any “sponsor”, credit enhancer, derivative provider or “significant obligor” as of the Closing Date other than with respect to itself or any information required to be provided by it or indemnified for by it pursuant to any separate agreement.

(b)               In the event that the Certificate Administrator is unable to timely file with the Commission all or any required portion of any Form 10-D, ABS-EE, 10-K or 8-K required to be filed by this Agreement because required disclosure information was either not delivered to it or delivered to it after the delivery deadlines set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will promptly notify the Depositor. In the case of Forms 10-D, ABS-EE and 10-K, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Trustee will thereupon cooperate to prepare and file a Form 12b-25 and a Form 10-D/A, Form ABS-EE/A or Form 10-K/A, as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange Act. In the case of Form 8-K, the Certificate Administrator will, upon receipt of all required Form 8-K Disclosure Information and upon the approval and direction of the Depositor, include such disclosure information on the next succeeding Form 10-D to be filed for the Trust. In the event that any previously filed Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE, Form 10-K or Form 8-K needs to be amended, the Certificate Administrator will notify the Depositor, and such other parties as needed and the parties hereto will cooperate with the Certificate Administrator to prepare any necessary Form 10-D/A, Form ABS-EE/A, Form 10-K/A or Form 8-K/A. Any Form 15, Form 12b-25 or

  -408-  

any amendment to Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE, Form 10-K or Form 8-K shall be signed by an officer of the Depositor. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Certificate Administrator of its duties under this Section 11.03 related to the timely preparation and filing of Form 15, a Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE, Form 10-K or Form 8-K is contingent upon the parties observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under Sections 11.03, 11.04, 11.05, 11.06, 11.07, 11.08, 11.09, 11.10, 11.11 and 11.15 of this Agreement. The Certificate Administrator shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, arrange for execution and/or timely file any such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE, Form 10-K or Form 8-K, where such failure results from the Certificate Administrator’s inability or failure to receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE, Form 10-K or Form 8-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

  -432-  

Serviced Loans and Serviced REO Properties), beginning with the first calendar quarter in which such notice from the Other Depositor was received, or the updated financial statements of such “significant obligor” for any calendar year, beginning for the calendar year in which such notice from the Other Depositor was received, as applicable, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Other Depositor, on or prior to the day that occurs two (2) Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Quarterly Filing Deadline or seven (7) Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Yearly Filing Deadline, as applicable, (A) if such financial statement receipt occurs twelve (12) or more Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Quarterly Filing Deadline or seventeen (17) or more Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Yearly Filing Deadline, as applicable, the financial statements of such “significant obligor”, together with the net operating income of such “significant obligor” for the applicable period as calculated by the Master Servicer (or by the Special Servicer and provided to the Master Servicer solely in the case of any related Specially Serviced Loan or Serviced REO Property) in accordance with CREFC^® guidelines and (B) if such financial statement receipt occurs less than twelve (12) Business Day prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Quarterly Filing Deadline or less than seventeen (17) Business Days prior to the related Significant Obligor NOI Yearly Filing Deadline, as applicable, such financial statements of the “significant obligor”, together with the net operating income of such “significant obligor” for the applicable period as reported by the related Mortgagor in such financial statements (or as reported by the related Mortgagor to the Special Servicer and provided by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer solely in the case of any related Specially Serviced Loan or as reported by the Special Servicer with respect to Serviced REO Property and provided by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer).

The Master Servicer (in the case of Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (in the case of Specially Serviced Loans) shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard (taking into account, in addition, the ongoing reporting obligations of such Other Depositor under the Exchange Act) to obtain the periodic financial statements required to be delivered by the related Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents.

The Master Servicer shall (and shall cause each applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into after receipt of written notice from the Other Depositor that such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan is a significant obligor to require the related Sub-Servicer to) retain written evidence of each instance in which it (or a Sub-Servicer) attempts to contact the related Mortgagor related to any such “significant obligor” (identified to it as such by the Other Depositor in accordance with the second preceding paragraph) to obtain the required financial information and is unsuccessful and, within five (5) Business Days prior to the date in which a Form 10-D or Form 10-K, as applicable, is required to be filed with respect to the Other Securitization, shall forward an Officer’s Certificate evidencing its attempts to obtain this information to the Other

  -433-  

Exchange Act Reporting Party and Other Depositor related to such Other Securitization; provided, however, the Special Servicer shall provide such Officer’s Certificate to the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall forward such Officer’s Certificate to the Other Exchange Act Reporting Party and Other Depositor related to such Other Securitization. This Officer’s Certificate should be addressed to the certificate administrator at its corporate trust office, as specified in the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

(h)               If any Other Securitization includes a Serviced Companion Loan and is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, then the obligations of the parties hereto set forth in this Article XI with respect to such Other Securitization shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that the Trust may cease to be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

Section 11.16    Certain Matters Regarding Significant Obligors. For the avoidance of doubt, there is no “significant obligor” (within the meaning of Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB) as of the Closing Date (“Significant Obligor”).

Section 11.17    Impact of Cure Period. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be subject to a Servicer Termination Event pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition thereof prior to the expiration of the Grace Period applicable to such party’s obligations under this Article XI as provided for in such clause (iii) nor shall any such party be deemed to not be in compliance under this Agreement, during any Grace Period provided for in this Article XI; provided that if any such party fails to comply with the delivery requirements of this Article XI by the expiration of any applicable Grace Period such failure shall constitute a Servicer Termination Event. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be subject to a Servicer Termination Event pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition thereof prior to the expiration of the Grace Period applicable to such party’s obligations under this Article XI as provided for in such clause (iii) nor shall any such party be deemed to not be in compliance under this Agreement, for failing to deliver any item required under this Article XI by the time required hereunder with respect to any reporting period for which the Trust (or any trust in a related Other Securitization) is not required to file Exchange Act reports.

ARTICLE XII

THE ASSET REPRESENTATIONS REVIEWER

Section 12.01    Asset Review. On or prior to each Distribution Date, based either on the CREFC^® Delinquent Loan Status Report and/or the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File delivered by the Master Servicer for such Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall determine if an Asset Review Trigger has occurred. If an Asset Review Trigger is determined to have occurred, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide notice to all Certificateholders and each other party to this Agreement. Any notice required to be delivered to the Certificateholders pursuant to this Article XII shall be delivered by the Certificate Administrator by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, by mailing such notice to the Certificateholders’ addresses appearing in the Certificate Register in the case of Definitive

  -434-  

Certificates and by delivering such notice via the Depository in the case of Book-Entry Certificates. The Certificate Administrator shall include in the Form 10-D relating to the reporting period in which the Asset Review Trigger occurred the following statement describing the events that caused the Asset Review Trigger to occur: “As of the [Date of Distribution], the following Mortgage Loans identified below are 60 or more days delinquent and an Asset Review Trigger as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement has occurred.” On each Distribution Date occurring after providing such notice to Certificateholders, the Certificate Administrator, based on information provided to it by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall determine whether (1) any additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Loan, (2) any Mortgage Loan has ceased to be a Delinquent Loan and (3) whether an Asset Review Trigger has ceased to exist, and, if there is an occurrence of any of the events or circumstances identified in clauses (1), (2) and/or (3), deliver such information in a written notice (which may be via email) in the form of Exhibit SS within one (1) Business Day to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer.

If Certificateholders evidencing not less than 5% of the Voting Rights of the Certificates deliver to the Certificate Administrator, within ninety (90) days after the filing of the Form 10-D reporting the occurrence of an Asset Review Trigger, a written direction requesting a vote to commence an Asset Review (an “Asset Review Vote Election”), then the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to all Certificateholders (with a copy to the Asset Representations Reviewer) and conduct a solicitation of votes in accordance with Section 5.10 to authorize an Asset Review. Upon the affirmative vote to authorize an Asset Review by Holders of Certificates evidencing at least (i) a majority of those Certificateholders who cast votes and (ii) a majority of an Asset Review Quorum within one hundred fifty (150) days of receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election (an “Affirmative Asset Review Vote”), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to all parties to this Agreement, the Underwriters, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Directing Certificateholder and the other Certificateholders (the “Asset Review Notice”). Upon receipt of an Asset Review Notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request access to the Secure Data Room by providing the Certificate Administrator with a certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit RR (which shall be sent via email to trustadministrationgroup@computershare.com or submitted electronically via the Certificate Administrator’s Website). Upon receipt of such certification, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly (and in any case within two (2) Business Days after such receipt) grant the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the Secure Data Room. In the event an Affirmative Asset Review Vote has not occurred within such one hundred fifty (150) day period following the receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election, no Certificateholder may request a vote or cast a vote for an Asset Review and the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to review any Delinquent Loan unless and until (A) an additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Loan after the expiration of such one hundred fifty (150) day period, (B) a new Asset Review Trigger has occurred as a result or an Asset Review Trigger is otherwise in effect, (C) the Certificate Administrator has timely received any Asset Review Vote Election after the occurrence of the events described in clauses (A) and (B) in this sentence and (D) an Affirmative Asset Review Vote has occurred within one hundred fifty (150) days after the Asset Review Vote Election described in clause (C) in this sentence. After the occurrence of any Asset Review Vote Election or an Affirmative Asset Review Vote, no Certificateholder may make any additional Asset Review Vote Election except as described in the immediately preceding sentence. Any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in

  -435-  

connection with administering such vote will be paid as an expense of the Trust from the Collection Account. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to administer any vote in connection with the foregoing through an agent.

(b)               (i) Upon receipt of an Asset Review Notice, the Custodian (with respect to clauses (1)-(5) below for all Mortgage Loans), the Master Servicer (with respect to clauses (6) and (7) below for Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to clauses (6) and (7) below for Specially Serviced Loans), in each case, to the extent in such party’s possession, shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days, provide the following materials in electronic format to the extent in their possession to the Asset Representations Reviewer (collectively, with the Diligence Files posted on the Secure Data Room by the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 4.08, a copy of the Prospectus, a copy of each related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and a copy of this Agreement, the “Review Materials”):

(1)               a copy of an assignment of the Mortgage in favor of the Trustee, with evidence of recording thereon, for each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(2)               a copy of an assignment of any related assignment of leases (if such item is a document separate from the Mortgage) in favor of the Trustee, with evidence of recording thereon, related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(3)               a copy of the assignment of all unrecorded documents relating to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review, if not already covered pursuant to items (1) or (2) above;

(4)               copies of all filed copies (bearing evidence of filing) or evidence of filing of any UCC Financing Statements related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(5)               a copy of an assignment in favor of the Trustee of any financing statement executed and filed in the relevant jurisdiction related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(6)               a copy of any notice previously delivered by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, of any alleged Defect or Breach with respect to any Delinquent Loan; and

(7)               copies of any other related documents that were entered into or delivered in connection with the origination of the related Mortgage Loan that the Asset Representations Reviewer has determined are necessary in connection with its completion of any Asset Review and that are requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer, in the time frames and as otherwise described in clause (ii) hereof.

(ii)               In addition, in the event that, as part of an Asset Review of a Mortgage Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines it is missing any document that is

  -436-  

required to be part of the Review Materials for such Mortgage Loan and that is necessary in connection with its completion of the Asset Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Review Materials, notify the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, of such missing document(s), and request that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notification from the Asset Representations Reviewer, deliver to the Asset Representations Reviewer such missing document(s) to the extent in its possession; provided that any such notification and/or request shall be in writing, specifically identifying the documents being requested and sent to the notice address for the related party set forth in Section 13.05. In the event any missing documents are not provided by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, within such ten (10) Business Day period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request such documents from the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided that the Mortgage Loan Seller shall be required under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to deliver such missing document only to the extent such document is in the possession of such party but in any event excluding any documents that contain information that is proprietary to the related originator or Mortgage Loan Seller or any draft documents or privileged or internal communications.

(iii)                       The Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider and rely upon information furnished to it by a Person that is not a party to this Agreement or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, and shall do so only if such information can be independently verified (without unreasonable effort or expense to the Asset Representations Reviewer) and is determined by the Asset Representations Reviewer in its good faith and sole discretion to be relevant to the Asset Review conducted pursuant to this Section 12.01 (any such information, “Unsolicited Information”).

(iv)                       Upon receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of the Asset Review Notice and access to the Diligence File with respect to a Delinquent Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer, as an independent contractor, shall commence a review of the compliance of each Delinquent Loan with the representations and warranties related to that Delinquent Loan (such review, the “Asset Review”). The Asset Representations Reviewer shall perform an Asset Review with respect to each representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Delinquent Loan in accordance with the procedures set forth on Exhibit QQ (each such procedure, a “Test”); provided, however, that the Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, (x) modify any Test and/or (y) modify any associated Review Materials to include any items not specified for the particular Test on Exhibit QQ (but in no event shall the modified Review Materials include materials not contemplated by the definition of “Review Materials”), in either case, only to the extent the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that it is necessary to modify such Test and/or such associated Review Materials in order to facilitate its Asset Review in accordance with the Asset Review Standard. Once an Asset Review of a Mortgage Loan is completed, no further Asset Review shall be required in respect of, or performed on, such Mortgage Loan notwithstanding that such Mortgage Loan may continue to be a Delinquent Loan or again become a Delinquent Loan at a time when a new Asset Review Trigger occurs and a new

  -437-  

Affirmative Asset Review Vote is obtained subsequent to the occurrence of such new Asset Review Trigger.

(v)                            No Certificateholder shall have the right to change the scope of the Asset Review, and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be required to review any information other than (1) the Review Materials and (2) if applicable, Unsolicited Information.

(vi)                       The Asset Representations Reviewer may, absent manifest error and subject to the Asset Review Standard, (i) assume, without independent investigation or verification, that the Review Materials are accurate and complete in all material respects and (ii) conclusively rely on such Review Materials.

(vii)                    The Asset Representations Reviewer shall prepare a preliminary report with respect to each Delinquent Loan within fifty-six (56) days after the date on which access to the Secure Data Room is provided by the Certificate Administrator unless the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that there is no Test failure with respect to the related Delinquent Loan, in which case no preliminary report shall be required, subject to the last sentence of this paragraph. In the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that the Review Materials are insufficient to complete a Test and such missing documentation is not delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans), the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) to the extent in the possession of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or from the related Mortgage Loan Seller within ten (10) Business Days following the request by the Asset Representations Reviewer to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the related Mortgage Loan Seller, as the case may be, as described in Section 12.01(b)(ii), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall list such missing documents in such preliminary report setting forth the preliminary results of the application of the Tests and the reasons why such missing documents are necessary to complete a Test and (if the Asset Representations Reviewer has so concluded) that the absence of such documents will be deemed to be a failure of such Test. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall provide such preliminary report to the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), and the related Mortgage Loan Seller. If the preliminary report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall have ninety (90) days (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the failure. Any documents or explanations to support the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s claim that the representation and warranty has not failed a Test or that any missing information or documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test shall be sent by such Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(viii)                 The Asset Representations Reviewer shall, within sixty (60) days after the date on which access to the Secure Data Room is provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate Administrator or within the ten (10) days after the expiration of the Cure/Contest Period (whichever is later), complete an Asset Review with respect to each Delinquent Loan and deliver (i) a report setting forth the Asset Representations

Reviewer’s findings and conclusions as to whether or not it has determined there is any evidence of a failure of any Test based on the Asset Review and a statement that the Asset Representations Reviewer’s findings and conclusions set forth in such report were not influenced by any third party (an “Asset Review Report”) to each party to this Agreement, the related Mortgage Loan Seller for each Delinquent Loan and the Directing Certificateholder and (ii) a summary of the Asset Representations Reviewer’s conclusions included in such Asset Review Report (an “Asset Review Report Summary”) to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. The period of time by which the Asset Review Report must be completed and delivered may be extended by up to an additional thirty (30) days, upon written notice to the parties to this Agreement and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, if the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that such additional time is required due to the characteristics of the Mortgage Loan and/or the Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties. In no event may the Asset Representations Reviewer determine whether any Test failure constitutes a Material Defect, or whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of (i) Barclays, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the Barclays Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, (ii) SGFC, Société Générale in respect of its obligations under the SGFC Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and (iii) BSPRT, FBRT in respect of its obligations under the BSPRT Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement), which, in each case, shall be a responsibility of the Enforcing Servicer pursuant to Section 12.01(b)(x) of this Agreement.

(ix)                         In addition, in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer does not receive any documentation that it requested from the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans), the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) or the related Mortgage Loan Seller in sufficient time to allow the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete its Asset Review and deliver an Asset Review Report, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall prepare the Asset Review Report solely based on the documentation received by the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to the related Delinquent Loan, and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall have no responsibility to independently obtain any such documentation from any party to this Agreement or otherwise.

(x)                             Within forty-five (45) days after receipt of an Asset Review Report with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Enforcing Servicer shall determine, based on the Servicing Standard, whether there exists a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan. If the Enforcing Servicer determines that a Material Defect exists, the Enforcing Servicer shall enforce the obligations of the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Material Defect in accordance with Section 2.03(b).

(c)               The Asset Representations Reviewer and its affiliates shall keep confidential any information appropriately labeled as “Privileged Information” received from any party to this Agreement or any Sponsor (including, without limitation, in connection with the review of the Mortgage Loans) and not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Certificateholders), other than (1) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement in an Asset Review Report or otherwise, to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information or (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information

  -439-  

Exception. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Asset Representations Reviewer with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception.

(d)               The Asset Representations Reviewer may delegate its duties to agents or subcontractors so long as the related agreements or arrangements with such agents or subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Section 12.01; provided that no agent or subcontractor may (i) be affiliated with any Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates or (ii) have been paid any fees, compensation or other remuneration by an Underwriter, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with due diligence or other services with respect to any Mortgage Loan prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall remain obligated and primarily liable for any Asset Review required hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability or related obligation or liability by virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as its agents or subcontractor to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Asset Representations Reviewer alone were performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with any agent or subcontractor providing for indemnification of the Asset Representations Reviewer by such agent or subcontractor, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(e)               The Asset Representations Reviewer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement in connection with the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its asset representations reviewer portfolio, provided that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accepting such assignment and delegation (A) is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer resulting from a merger, consolidation or succession that is permitted under this Agreement, (B) assumes in writing each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by the asset representations reviewer under this Agreement and (C) is not a prohibited party under this Agreement; (ii) the asset representations reviewer will not be released from its obligations under this Agreement that arose prior to the effective date of such assignment and delegation; (iii) the rate at which each of the Asset Representations Reviewer Fee and the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee (or any component thereof) is calculated may not exceed the rate then in effect and (iv) the resigning asset representations reviewer will be required to be responsible for the reasonable costs and expenses of each other party to this Agreement and the Rating Agencies in connection with such transfer. Upon acceptance of such assignment and delegation, the purchaser or transferee will be required to provide notice to each party to this Agreement and then will be the successor asset representations reviewer under this Agreement.

Section 12.02    Payment of Asset Representations Reviewer Fees and Expenses; Limitation of Liability.(a) As compensation for the performance of its routine duties, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be paid a fee (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Fee”), payable monthly from amounts received in respect of the Mortgage Loans and shall be equal to the product of a rate equal to 0.00030% per annum (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Fee Rate”) and the

  -440-  

Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and any REO Loans (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, but not any Companion Loan) and shall be calculated in the same manner as interest is calculated on such Mortgage Loans.

(b)               As compensation for the performance of its duties hereunder, with respect to an individual Asset Review Trigger and each Mortgage Loan that is a Delinquent Loan and is subject to an Asset Review (for purposes of this paragraph, each a “Subject Loan”), upon the completion of any Asset Review with respect to an individual Asset Review Trigger, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be paid a fee equal to the sum of (i) $15,000, plus $1,000 per additional Mortgaged Property with respect to a Delinquent Loan with a Cut-off Date Balance less than $20,000,000, (ii) $20,000, plus $1,000 per additional Mortgaged Property with respect to a Delinquent Loan with a Cut-off Date Balance greater than or equal to $20,000,000, but less than $40,000,000 or (iii) $25,000, plus $1,000 per additional Mortgaged Property with respect to a Delinquent Loan with a Cut-off Date Balance greater than or equal to $40,000,000 (any such fee, the “Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee”). The Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to each Delinquent Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) shall be paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, however, that if the related Mortgage Loan Seller is insolvent or fails to pay such amount within ninety (90) days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee shall be paid by the Trust following delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of a certification to the Master Servicer that the requirements for payment set forth in this Section 12.02(b) have been met. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall not deliver any such certificate unless it has invoiced payment of such amount and otherwise met the requirements for payment set forth in this Section 12.02(b), including receipt of evidence of such insolvency or failure to pay such amount. A Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have failed to pay such amount hereunder ninety (90) days after delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of an itemized invoice to such Mortgage Loan Seller by registered mail or overnight courier to the address listed in this Agreement for such Mortgage Loan Seller, or to such other address as shall be provided by such Mortgage Loan Seller for delivery of notices in accordance with this Agreement, or ninety (90) days following attempted delivery of such invoice by registered mail or overnight courier and reasonable follow-up by telephone or e-mail. Notwithstanding any payment of such fee by the Trust to the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee will remain an obligation of the related Mortgage Loan Seller and the Enforcing Servicer shall pursue remedies against such Mortgage Loan Seller to recover any such amounts to the extent paid by the Trust.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to a Delinquent Loan shall be included in the Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan that was the subject of a completed Asset Review and that is repurchased or substituted by the related Mortgage Loan Seller to the extent such fee was not already paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller, and such portion of the Purchase Price received shall be used to reimburse the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trust, as the case may be, for such fees pursuant to Section 12.02(b).

(d)               The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed by this Agreement.

  -441-  

Section 12.03    Resignation of the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer may at any time resign and be discharged from its obligations hereunder by giving written notice thereof to the other parties to this Agreement and each Rating Agency. Upon such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. If no successor asset representations reviewer shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Asset Representations Reviewer may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer will bear all reasonable costs and expenses of each party hereto and each Rating Agency in connection with its resignation.

Section 12.04    Restrictions of the Asset Representations Reviewer. Neither the Asset Representations Reviewer nor any of its Affiliates shall make any investment in any Class of Certificates; provided, however, that such prohibition shall not apply to (i) riskless principal transactions effected by a broker dealer Affiliate of the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) investments by an Affiliate of the Asset Representations Reviewer if the Asset Representations Reviewer and such Affiliate maintain policies and procedures that (A) segregate personnel involved in the activities of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement from personnel involved in such Affiliate’s investment activities and (B) prevent such Affiliate and its personnel from gaining access to information regarding the Trust and the Asset Representations Reviewer and its personnel from gaining access to such Affiliate’s information regarding its investment activities.

Section 12.05    Termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer.(a) An “Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event” means any one of the following events whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body:

(i)                              any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants or agreements or the material breach of any of its representations or warranties under this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Trustee or to the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing greater than 25% of the Voting Rights, provided that any such failure that is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall have an additional cure period of thirty (30) days to effect such cure so long as it has commenced to cure such failure within the initial thirty (30) day period and has provided the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator with an officer’s certificate certifying that it has diligently pursued, and is continuing to pursue, such cure;

(ii)                           any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform its obligations hereunder in accordance with the Asset Review Standard in any material respect, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date written

  -442-  

notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by any party to this Agreement;

(iii)                        any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by any party to this Agreement;

(iv)                      a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Asset Representations Reviewer, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days;

(v)                         the Asset Representations Reviewer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or liquidation committee in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities, voluntary liquidation, or similar proceedings of or relating to the Asset Representations Reviewer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(vi)                      the Asset Representations Reviewer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations.

Upon receipt by the Certificate Administrator of written notice of the occurrence of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders (which shall be simultaneously delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer) in accordance with the notice distribution procedures described in Section 12.01(a), unless the Certificate Administrator has received written notice that such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event has been remedied. If an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall occur then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee (i) may or (ii) upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts), shall, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement, other than rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination), by notice in writing to the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer is required to bear all reasonable costs and expenses of itself and of each other party to this Agreement in connection with its termination due to an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor and each Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event of which it becomes aware.

  -443-  

(b)               Upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts) requesting a vote to terminate and replace the Asset Representations Reviewer with a proposed successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer and (ii) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Asset Representations Reviewer and to all Certificateholders by (i) posting such notice on its internet website, and (ii) mailing such notice to all Certificateholders at their addresses appearing in the Certificate Register and to the Asset Representations Reviewer. Upon the written direction of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least 75% of a Certificateholder Quorum (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts), the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination and other than indemnification rights arising out of events occurring prior to such termination) by notice in writing to the Asset Representations Reviewer and appoint the proposed successor. As between the Asset Representations Reviewer, on the one hand, and the Holders of Principal Balance Certificates, on the other, the Holders of Principal Balance Certificates shall be entitled in their sole discretion to vote for the termination or not vote for the termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer. In the event that Holders of the Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least 75% of the Certificateholder Quorum (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts) elect to remove the Asset Representations Reviewer without cause and appoint a successor, the successor asset representations reviewer will be responsible for all expenses necessary to effect the transfer of responsibilities from its predecessor.

(c)               On or after the receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of written notice of termination, subject to this Section 12.05, all of its authority and power under this Agreement shall be terminated and, without limitation, the terminated Asset Representations Reviewer shall execute any and all documents and other instruments, and do or accomplish all other acts or things reasonably necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after (1) the Asset Representations Reviewer resigns pursuant to Section 12.03 of this Agreement or (2) the Trustee delivers such written notice of termination to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee shall appoint a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Trustee shall provide written notice of the appointment of an Asset Representations Reviewer to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder and each Certificateholder within one Business Day of such appointment.

The Asset Representations Reviewer shall at all times be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer and if the Asset Representations Reviewer ceases to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall immediately notify the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Directing Certificateholder of such disqualification and immediately resign under Section 12.03 of this Agreement and the Trustee shall appoint a successor asset representations reviewer subject to and in accordance with this Section 12.05. Notwithstanding

  -444-  

the foregoing, if the Trustee is unable to find a successor asset representations reviewer within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement. The Trustee shall not be liable for any failure to identify and appoint a successor asset representations reviewer so long as the Trustee uses commercially reasonable efforts to conduct a search for a successor asset representations reviewer and such failure is not a result of the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the performance of its obligations hereunder.

(d)               Upon any termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer and appointment of a successor to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator (who shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Certificateholders), the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Depositor, each Rating Agency and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder. In the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer is terminated, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination).

(d)               No later than the effective date of any amendment to this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall post a copy of the same to the Certificate Administrator’s Website, deliver a copy of the same to the 17g-5 Information Provider who shall post a copy of the same on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) and Section 3.13(c), as applicable, and thereafter, the Certificate Administrator shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment together with a copy of such amendment in electronic format to each Certificateholder and each Serviced Companion Noteholder, the Depositor, each Other Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Underwriters and the Rating Agencies.

(e)               It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 13.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Certificate Administrator may prescribe.

(f)                The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall not be obligated to enter into any amendment pursuant to this Section 13.01 that affects its rights, duties and immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

(g)               The cost of any Opinion of Counsel to be delivered pursuant to Section 13.01(a) or Section 13.01(c) and the cost of any amendment entered into hereunder shall be borne by the Person seeking the related amendment, except that if the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee requests any amendment of this Agreement in furtherance of the rights and interests of Certificateholders, the cost of any Opinion of Counsel required in connection therewith pursuant to Section 13.01(a) or Section 13.01(c) shall be payable out of the Collection Account.

(h)               The Servicing Standard shall not be amended unless each Rating Agency provides Rating Agency Confirmation and, with respect to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies provide a confirmation that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25).

(i)                 To the extent the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or Depositor obtains an Opinion of Counsel as provided for in Section 13.01(c) in connection with executing any amendment to this Agreement, such party shall be deemed not to have acted negligently in connection with entering into such amendment for purposes of availing itself of any indemnity provided to such party under this Agreement.

(j)                 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to this Section 13.01, any Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor shall be entitled to the same Voting Rights

  -449-  

with respect to matters described above as they would if any other Person held such Certificates, so long as neither the Depositor nor any of its Affiliates is performing servicing duties with respect to any of the Mortgage Loans.

(k)               This Agreement may not be amended without the consent of any holder of a Companion Loan if such amendment would materially and adversely affect the rights of such Companion Holder hereunder.

(l)                 In addition, if one but not all of the Mortgage Notes evidencing a Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers, this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment (or, if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer is requesting such amendment in connection with the fulfillment of its duties under this Agreement, at the expense of the Trust)), without the consent of any Certificateholder, to add or modify provisions relating to the applicable Repurchased Note for purposes of the servicing and administration of such Repurchased Note provided that the amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Certificateholders, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (obtained at the expense of the Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller) with respect to such amendment (or, if no such Rating Agency Confirmation is actually received, by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect). Prior to the effectiveness of such amendment, if one but not all of the Mortgage Notes with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased, the terms of Section 3.34 shall govern the servicing and administration of such Joint Mortgage Loan.

Section 13.02    Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts. (a) To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the Certificate Administrator at the expense of the Depositor on direction by the Special Servicer and with the consent of the Depositor (which may not be unreasonably withheld), but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Depositor) to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests of the Certificateholders.

(b)               For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and the words “executed,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import as used above and elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to this transaction shall include, in addition to manually executed signatures, images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, any electronic sound, symbol, or process, attached to or logically associated with a contract or other record and executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the record). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,

  -450-  

including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

(c)               The Trustee shall make any filings required under the laws of the state of its place of business required solely by virtue of the fact of the location of the Trustee’s place of business, the costs of which, if any, to be at the Trustee’s expense.

Section 13.03    Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders. (a)  The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust, nor entitle such Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.

(b)               No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as expressly provided for herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the Trust, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any third party by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.

(c)               No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, any Intercreditor Agreement, any Mortgage Loan or with respect to the Certificates, unless, with respect to any suit, action or proceeding upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator a written notice of default, and of the continuance thereof, as herein before provided, or of the need to institute such suit, action or proceeding on behalf of the Trust and unless also (except in the case of a default by the Trustee) the Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing not less than 25% of the related Percentage Interests in such Class shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of such indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it hereunder or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders of Certificates unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or hereby. It is understood and intended, and expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of any provision of this Agreement or the Certificates to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, which priority or preference is not otherwise provided for herein, or to enforce any right under this Agreement or the Certificates,

  -451-  

except in the manner herein or therein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section 13.03(c), each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

Section 13.06    Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates or the rights of the Holders thereof.

Section 13.07    Grant of a Security Interest. The Depositor intends that the conveyance of the Conveyed Property shall constitute a sale and not a pledge of security for a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge of security for a loan, however, the Depositor intends that the rights and obligations of the parties to such loan shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Depositor also intends and agrees that, in such event, (i) the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted to the Trustee (in such capacity) a first priority security interest in the Depositor’s entire right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or existing

  -463-  

or hereafter acquired or arising, the Conveyed Property and all proceeds thereof and (ii) this Agreement shall constitute a Security Agreement under applicable law. The Depositor shall file or cause to be filed, as a precautionary filing, a UCC Financing Statement in all appropriate locations in the State of Delaware promptly following the initial issuance of the Certificates, and the Certificate Administrator shall, at the expense of the Depositor (to the extent reasonable), prepare and file continuation statements with respect thereto, in each case in the six-month period prior to every fifth anniversary of the date of the initial UCC Financing Statement. The Depositor shall cooperate in a reasonable manner with the Certificate Administrator in the preparation and filing of such continuation statements. This Section 13.07 shall constitute notice to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee pursuant to any of the requirements of the applicable UCC.

Section 13.08    Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power

A-1-13

granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in the imposition of a tax on any portion of the Trust Fund or either Trust REMIC, or cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provision specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Designated Intercreditor Agreement, without in each case the consent of the holder of the related Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, in that order of priority, may, at their option, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of the first paragraph of Section 9.01 in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of purchase; provided, however, that the Holders of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, or the Holders of the Class R Certificates may so elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund only on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Balances of the Mortgage Loans subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E-RR Certificates are no longer outstanding (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right, with the consent of the Master Servicer, to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates together with the payment or deemed payment of the Termination Purchase Amount) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date hereof.

This Class R Certificate represents the “residual interests” in two “real estate mortgage investment conduits”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

A-2-5

The Certificate Administrator is hereby designated as the “partnership representative” (within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code) of each Trust REMIC. Each holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, consents to the Certificate Administrator making any elections allowed under the Code (a) to avoid the application of Section 6221 (or successor provision) to the Trust REMICs and (b) to avoid payment by the Trust REMICs under Section 6225 of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on a Holder of this Certificate. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to any such elections and to reasonably cooperate with the Certificate Administrator in connection with any such elections the Certificate Administrator determines in its discretion are necessary or advisable.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, distributions, if any, on this Certificate shall be made by the Certificate Administrator in an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) thereof and to the extent and subject to the limitations set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, on the Distribution Date to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 3.06 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

A-2-6

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(j) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate, subject to applicable law with respect to escheatment of funds. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(j) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of Transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions. The rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions: (A) no Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be a Disqualified Organization or agent thereof (including a nominee, middleman or similar person) (an “Agent”), a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of or using the assets of a Plan (such Plan or Person, an “ERISA Prohibited Holder”) or a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person and each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of any change or impending change to such status; (B) in connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall require delivery to it, and no Transfer of any Class R Certificate shall be registered until the Certificate Registrar receives, (I) an affidavit substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit D-1 (a “Transferee Affidavit”) from the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, representing and warranting, among other things, that such Transferee is not a Disqualified Organization or Agent thereof or a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person, and that it has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.03(p) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and agrees to be bound by them and (II) a representation letter,

A-2-7

substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit F-2 from the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, representing and warranting, among other things, that such Transferee is not an ERISA Prohibited Holder; (C) notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed Transferee under clause (B) above, if the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is a Disqualified Organization or Agent thereof, an ERISA Prohibited Holder or a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be effected; and (D) each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall agree (1) to require a Transferee Affidavit from any prospective Transferee to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Ownership Interest in such Class R Certificate and (2) not to transfer its Ownership Interest in such Class R Certificate unless it provides to the Certificate Registrar a letter substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit D-2 certifying that, among other things, it has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the proposed Transferee’s statements in such Transferee Affidavit are false.

The Class R Certificates will be issued in fully registered, certificated form, in minimum percentage interests of 10% and integral multiples of 1% in excess thereof.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, or any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

(i)                             to correct any defect or ambiguity in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in order to address any manifest error in any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(ii)                          to cause the provisions in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to conform or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus (or in an offering document for any related non-offered certificates) with respect to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any of its

A-2-8

provisions which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions therein or to correct any error;

(iii)                       to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the P&I Advance Date shall in no event be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to such amendment;

(iv)                      to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of either Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the relevant provisions of the Code at all times that any Certificate is outstanding, or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on the Trust, either Trust REMIC; provided that the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any such tax and (b) such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or Companion Holder;

(v)                         to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of Section 5.03(p) or Section 5.03(q) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement restricting transfer of the Class R Certificates; provided the Depositor has determined that such change shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, cause the Trust, either Trust REMIC or any of the Certificateholders (other than the Transferor) to be subject to a federal tax caused by a Transfer to a Person that is a Disqualified Organization or a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person;

(vi)                      to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other change; provided that the required action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan not consenting to such revision or addition as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies with respect to such amendment or supplement and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement);

(vii)                   to amend or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency

A-2-9

Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder not consenting to such amendment or supplement, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel;

(viii)                to modify the provisions of Sections 3.05 and 3.17 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances and Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts) if (a) the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and, for so long as a Control Termination Event has not occurred and is not continuing and with respect to the Mortgage Loans other than any Excluded Loan, the Directing Certificateholder, determine that the commercial mortgage-backed securities industry standard for such provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such modification does not adversely affect the status of either Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the relevant provisions of the Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with regard to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies have delivered a confirmation that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement);

(ix)                        to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to compliance with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that such amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respects the interests of any Certificateholders, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Certificates; and provided, further, that the Certificate Administrator shall give notice of any such amendment to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Certificate Administrator shall post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website;

(x)                           to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to such extent as will be necessary to comply with the requirements for use of Form SF-3 in registered offerings to the extent provided in C.F.R. 239.45(b)(1)(ii), (iii) or (iv); or

(xi)                        to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions (i) to such extent as will be necessary to comply with the requirements of the Risk Retention Rules, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, or (ii) in the event the Risk Retention Rules or any other regulations applicable to the risk retention requirements for this securitization transaction

A-2-10

are amended or repealed, to the extent required to comply with any such amendment or to modify or eliminate the provision related to the risk retention requirements in the event of such amendment or repeal, upon the consent of the Retaining Sponsor, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations or rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller, related Additional Repurchase Obligor or related guarantor under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller, related Additional Repurchase Obligor or related guarantor as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller, related Additional Repurchase Obligor or related guarantor or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holder of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of Certificates of each Class affected by such amendment evidencing in the aggregate not less than a majority of the aggregate Percentage Interests constituting the Class for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                             reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans or Whole Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                          reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                       adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                      change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations or rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller, related Additional Repurchase Obligor or related guarantor under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller, related Additional Repurchase Obligor or related guarantor as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller, related Additional Repurchase Obligor or related guarantor; or

(v)                         amend the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and

A-2-11

confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and, if required under the related Intercreditor Agreement, the consent of the Subordinate Companion Holder(s) for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in the imposition of a tax on any portion of the Trust Fund or either Trust REMIC, or cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provision specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Designated Intercreditor Agreement, without in each case the consent of the holder of the related Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, in that order of priority, may, at their option, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of the first paragraph of Section 9.01 in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of purchase; provided, however, that the Holders of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, or the Holders of the Class R Certificates may so elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund only on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Balances of the Mortgage Loans subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E-RR Certificates are no longer outstanding (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right, with the consent of the Master Servicer, to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates together with the payment or deemed payment of the Termination Purchase Amount) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

A-2-12

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

Re: Transfer of BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-5C25, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C25

To the above-mentioned addressees:

This letter is delivered pursuant to Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated and effective as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, on behalf of the holders of BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-5C25, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C25 in connection with the transfer by _________________ (the “Seller”) to the undersigned (the “Purchaser”) of $_______________ aggregate [Certificate Balance] [Notional Amount] [__% Percentage Interest] of Class ___ Certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

In connection with such transfer, the Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to you and the addressees hereof as follows:

1.       Check one of the following:^*

☐ The Purchaser is not purchasing a Class R Certificate and the Purchaser is an institution that is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) under the Securities Act of 1933,

^*     Purchaser must select one of the following two certifications.

Exhibit C-1

as amended (the “Securities Act”) or any entity in which all of the equity owners are “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D (each, an “Institutional Accredited Investor”) and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Certificates, and the Purchaser and any accounts for which it is acting are each able to bear the economic risk of the Purchaser’s or such account’s investment. The Purchaser is acquiring the Certificates purchased by it for its own account or for one or more accounts, each of which is an Institutional Accredited Investor, as to each of which the Purchaser exercises sole investment discretion. The Purchaser hereby undertakes to reimburse the Trust for any costs incurred by it in connection with this transfer.

☐ The Purchaser is a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”) within the meaning of Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) under the Securities Act. The Purchaser is aware that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, and the Purchaser has had the opportunity to obtain the information required to be provided pursuant to paragraph (d)(4)(i) of Rule 144A.

2.       The Purchaser’s intention is to acquire the Certificates (a) for investment for the Purchaser’s own account or (b) for reoffer, resale, pledge or other transfer (i) to QIBs in transactions under Rule 144A, and not in any event with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, or (ii) (other than with respect to a Class R Certificate) to Institutional Accredited Investors, subject in the case of clause (ii) above to (w) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a letter substantially in the form hereof, (x) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Trustee and Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act, (y) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of such other evidence acceptable to the Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and other applicable laws and (z) a written undertaking to reimburse the Trust for any costs incurred by it in connection with the proposed transfer. The Purchaser understands that the Certificates (and any subsequent Certificates) have not been registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specified exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Purchaser’s investment intent (or intent to reoffer, resell, pledge or transfer the Certificates only to certain investors in certain exempted transactions) as expressed herein.

3.       The Purchaser has reviewed the Preliminary Prospectus and the Final Prospectus relating to the Registered Certificates (collectively, the “Prospectus”) (and, with respect to Non-Registered Certificates, the Preliminary Private Placement Memorandum and the Final Private Placement Memorandum related to such Non-Registered Certificates) and the agreements and other materials referred to therein and has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Prospectus.

4.       The Purchaser acknowledges that the Certificates (and any Certificates issued on transfer or exchange thereof) have not been registered or qualified under the Securities

Exhibit C-2

Act or the securities laws of any State or any other jurisdiction, and that the Certificates cannot be reoffered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred unless it is registered or qualified thereunder or unless an exemption from such registration or qualification is available.

5.       The Purchaser hereby undertakes to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in its capacity as an owner of a Certificate or Certificates, as the case may be (each, a “Certificateholder”), in all respects as if it were a signatory thereto. This undertaking is made for the benefit of the Trust, the Certificate Registrar and all Certificateholders present and future.

6.       The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer any portion of the Certificate or Certificates, except in compliance with Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

☐ The Purchaser is not a U.S. Tax Person and under applicable law in effect on the date hereof, no taxes will be required to be withheld by the Certificate Registrar (or its agent) with respect to distributions to be made on the Certificates. The Purchaser has attached hereto [(i) a duly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or successor form, as applicable), which identifies such Purchaser as the beneficial owner of the Certificates and states that such Purchaser is not a U.S. Tax Person, (ii) IRS Form W-8IMY (with all appropriate attachments) or (iii)]^*** two duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form), which identify such Purchaser as the beneficial owner of the Certificates and state that interest and original issue discount on the Certificates and Permitted Investments is, or is expected to be, effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business. The Purchaser agrees to provide to the Certificate Registrar updated [IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8IMY or]*** IRS Form W-8ECI, [as the case may be,]*** any applicable successor IRS forms, or such other certifications as the Certificate Registrar may reasonably request, on or before the date that any such IRS form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent IRS form of certification furnished by it to the Certificate Registrar.

For purposes of this paragraph 7, “U.S. Tax Person” means a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation or partnership (except to the extent provided in applicable Treasury Regulations) or other entity created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, including any entity treated as a corporation or partnership for federal income tax purposes, an estate whose income is subject to United States

Re: BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-5C25, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C25 (the “Certificates”) issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), dated and effective as of March 1, 2024, among Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer

STATE OF	)
	)   ss.:
COUNTY OF	)

I, [______], under penalties of perjury, declare that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the following representations are true, correct and complete, and being first sworn, depose and say that:

1.       I am a [______] of [______] (the “Purchaser”), on behalf of which I have the authority to make this affidavit.

2.       The Purchaser is acquiring Class R Certificates representing [__]% of the residual interest in each of the real estate mortgage investment conduits (each, a “REMIC” or “Trust REMIC”) designated as the (i)  “Lower-Tier REMIC” and (ii) “Upper-Tier REMIC”, respectively, relating to the Certificates for which an election is to be made under Section 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

3.       The Purchaser is not a “Disqualified Organization” (as defined below), and that the Purchaser is not acquiring the Class R Certificates for the account of, or as agent or nominee of, or with a view to the transfer of direct or indirect record or beneficial ownership thereof, to a Disqualified Organization. For the purposes hereof, a Disqualified Organization is any of the following: (i) the United States, any State or political subdivision thereof, any possession of the United States or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality which is a corporation if all of its activities are subject to tax and, except

Exhibit D-1-1

for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, a majority of its board of directors is not selected by such governmental unit), (ii) a foreign government, any international organization or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing, (iii) any organization which is exempt from the tax imposed by Chapter 1 of the Code (including the tax imposed by Section 511 of the Code on unrelated business taxable income) on any excess inclusions (as defined in Section 860E(c)(1) of the Code) with respect to the Class R Certificates (except certain farmers’ cooperatives described in Section 521 of the Code), (iv) rural electric and telephone cooperatives described in Section 1381(a)(2)(C) of the Code and (v) any other Person so designated by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator based upon an Opinion of Counsel as provided to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator (at no expense to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator) that the holding of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate by such Person may cause a Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or any Person having an Ownership Interest in any Class of Certificates (other than such Person) to incur a liability for any federal tax imposed under the Code that would not otherwise be imposed but for the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate to such Person. The terms “United States,” “State” and “international organization” shall have the meanings set forth in Section 7701 of the Code or successor provisions.

4.       The Purchaser acknowledges that Section 860E(e) of the Code would impose a substantial tax on the transferor or, in certain circumstances, on an agent for the transferee, with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Class R Certificates to a Disqualified Organization.

5.       The Purchaser is a Permitted Transferee and, to the extent applicable, the Purchaser’s U.S. taxpayer identification number is [__________].

6.       No purpose of the acquisition of the Class R Certificates is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

7.       The Purchaser will not cause income from the Class R Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Purchaser or any other person.

8.       Check the applicable paragraph:

☐                 The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the Class R Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:

(i)                   the present value of any consideration given to the Purchaser to acquire such Class R Certificate;

(ii)                the present value of the expected future distributions on such Class R Certificate; and

(iii)             the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding such Class R Certificate as the related Trust REMIC generates losses.

Exhibit D-1-2

For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Purchaser is assumed to pay tax at the rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but the tax rate in Section 55(b) of the Code may be used in lieu of the corporate income tax rate specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Purchaser has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the preceding two years and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period used by the Purchaser.

☐                    The transfer of the Class R Certificate complies with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,

(i)                   the Purchaser is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the Class R Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;

(ii)                at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Purchaser’s two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the Purchaser had gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person related to the Purchaser within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10 million;

(iii)             the Purchaser will transfer the Class R Certificate only to another “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(5); and

(iv)            the Purchaser determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Class R Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including, but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific to the Purchaser) that it has determined in good faith.

☐                    None of the above.

9.        The Purchaser historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future and the Purchaser intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Class R Certificates as they become due.

10.      The Purchaser understands that it may incur tax liabilities with respect to the Class R Certificate in excess of any cash flows generated by such Certificate.

11.      The Purchaser is aware that the Certificate Registrar will not register any transfer of a Class R Certificate by the Transferor unless the Purchaser, or such Purchaser’s agent, delivers to the Certificate Registrar, among other things, an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement. The Purchaser expressly agrees that it will not consummate any such transfer if it knows or believes that any representation contained in such affidavit and agreement is false.

Exhibit D-1-3

12.       The Purchaser represents that it is not acquiring the Class R Certificate as a nominee, trustee or agent for any person that is not a Permitted Transferee and that for so long as it retains its interest in the Class R Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee.

13.       The Purchaser consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificate will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by a Permitted Transferee.

14.       The Purchaser has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, a description of which provisions is set forth in the Class R Certificates; and the Purchaser expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such provisions.

15.       The Purchaser consents to the (i) designation of the Certificate Administrator as the “partnership representative” (as defined in Section 6223 of the Code) of each Trust REMIC pursuant to Section 10.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and (ii) Certificate Administrator making any elections allowed under the Code (a) to avoid the application of Section 6221 (or successor provision) to the Trust REMICs and (b) to avoid payment by the Trust REMICs under Section 6225 of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on a Holder of Class R Certificates. The Purchaser agrees, by acquiring such certificate, to any such elections and to reasonably cooperate with the Certificate Administrator in connection with any such elections the Certificate Administrator determines in its discretion are necessary or advisable.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Re: BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-5C25, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C25 (the “Certificates”)

To the above-mentioned addressees:

This letter is delivered to you in connection with the transfer by [______] (the “Transferor”) to [______] (the “Transferee”) of Class R Certificates evidencing a [__]% Percentage Interest in such Class (the “Residual Certificates”). The Certificates, including the Residual Certificates, were issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated and effective as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as Certificate Registrar, that:

(1)       No purpose of the Transferor relating to the transfer of the Residual Certificates by the Transferor to the Transferee is or will be to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.

(2)       The Transferor understands that the Transferee has delivered to you a Transferee Affidavit in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit D-1. The Transferor does not know or believe that any representation contained therein is false.

(3)       The Transferor has at the time of this transfer conducted a reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Transferee as contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i) and, as a result of that investigation, the Transferor has determined that the Transferee has historically paid its debts as they became due and has found no significant evidence to indicate that the Transferee will not continue to pay its debts as they become due in the future. The Transferor understands that the transfer of the Residual Certificates may not be respected for United States income tax purposes (and the Transferor may

Exhibit D-2-1

continue to be liable for United States income taxes associated therewith) unless the Transferor has conducted such an investigation.

(b)         was or is lawfully obtained by you from a source other than a Furnishing Entity or its representatives that (i) is reasonably believed by you to be under no obligation to maintain the information as confidential and (ii) provides it to you without any obligation to maintain the information as confidential; or

(c)         is independently developed by the NRSRO without reference to any Confidential Information.

Exhibit P-2-3

2. Information to Be Held in Confidence.

(a)         You will use the Confidential Information solely for the purpose of determining or monitoring a credit rating on the Certificates and, to the extent that any information used is derived from but does not reveal any Confidential Information, for benchmarking, modeling or research purposes (the “Intended Purpose”).

(b)         You acknowledge that you are aware that the United States and state securities laws impose restrictions on trading in securities when in possession of material, non-public information and that the NRSRO will advise (through policy manuals or otherwise) each NRSRO Representative who is informed of the matters that are the subject of this Confidentiality Agreement to that effect.

(c)         You will treat the Confidential Information as private and confidential. Subject to Section 4, without the prior written consent of the applicable Furnishing Entity, you will not disclose to any person any Confidential Information, whether such Confidential Information was furnished to you before, on or after the date of this Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may:

(i)      disclose the Confidential Information to any of the NRSRO’s affiliates, directors, officers, employees, legal representatives, agents and advisors (each, a “NRSRO Representative”) who, in the reasonable judgment of the NRSRO, need to know such Confidential Information in connection with the Intended Purpose; provided, that, prior to disclosure of the Confidential Information to a NRSRO Representative, the NRSRO shall have taken reasonable precautions to ensure, and shall be satisfied, that such NRSRO Representative will act in accordance with this Confidentiality Agreement;

(ii)      solely to the extent required for compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3) of the Act (17 C.F.R. 240.17g-5), post the Confidential Information to the NRSRO’s password protected website; and

(iii)      use information derived from the Confidential Information in connection with an Intended Purpose, if such derived information does not reveal any Confidential Information.

3. Disclosures Required by Law. If you or any NRSRO Representative is requested or required (orally or in writing, by interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigatory demand, request for information or documents, deposition or similar process relating to any legal proceeding, investigation, hearing or otherwise) to disclose any Confidential Information, you agree to provide the relevant Furnishing Entity with notice as soon as practicable (except in the case of regulatory or other governmental inquiry, examination or investigation, and otherwise to the extent practical and permitted by law, regulation or regulatory or other governmental authority) that a request to disclose the Confidential Information has been made so that the relevant Furnishing Entity may seek an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information if it so chooses. Unless otherwise required by a court or other governmental or regulatory authority to do so, and provided that you been

Exhibit P-2-4

informed by written notice that the related Furnishing Entity is seeking a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment with respect to the requested Confidential Information, you agree not to disclose the Confidential Information while the Furnishing Entity’s effort to obtain such a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment is pending. You agree to reasonably cooperate with each Furnishing Entity in its efforts to obtain a protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the portion of the Confidential Information that is being disclosed, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity; provided, however, that in no event shall the NRSRO be required to take a position that such information should be entitled to receive such a protective order or reasonable assurance as to confidential treatment. If a Furnishing Entity succeeds in obtaining a protective order or other remedy, you agree to comply with its terms with respect to the disclosure of the Confidential Information, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity. If a protective order or other remedy is not obtained or if the relevant Furnishing Entity waives compliance with the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement in writing, you agree to furnish only such information as you are legally required to disclose, at the sole expense of the relevant Furnishing Entity.

4. Obligation to Return Evaluation Material. Promptly upon written request by or on behalf of the relevant Furnishing Entity, all material or documents, including copies thereof, that contain Evaluation Material will be destroyed or, in your sole discretion, returned to the relevant Furnishing Entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the NRSRO may retain one or more copies of any document or other material containing Evaluation Material to the extent necessary for legal or regulatory compliance (or compliance with the NRSRO’s internal policies and procedures designed to ensure legal or regulatory compliance) and (b) the NRSRO may retain any portion of the Evaluation Material that may be found in backup tapes or other archive or electronic media or other documents prepared by the NRSRO and any Evaluation Material obtained in an oral communication; provided, that any Evaluation Material so retained by the NRSRO will remain subject to this Confidentiality Agreement and the NRSRO will remain bound by the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement.

5. Violations of this Confidentiality Agreement.

(a)         The NRSRO will be responsible for any breach of this Confidentiality Agreement by you, the NRSRO or any NRSRO Representative.

(b)         You agree promptly to advise each relevant Furnishing Entity in writing of any misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure or use by any person of the Confidential Information which may come to your attention and to take all steps reasonably requested by such Furnishing Entity to limit, stop or otherwise remedy such misappropriation, or unauthorized disclosure or use.

(c)         You acknowledge and agree that the Furnishing Entities would not have an adequate remedy at law and would be irreparably harmed in the event that any of the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that each Furnishing

Exhibit P-2-5

Entity shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief to prevent breaches of this Confidentiality Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which a Furnishing Entity may be entitled at law or in equity. It is further understood and agreed that no failure to or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege.

6. Term. Notwithstanding the termination or cancellation of this Confidentiality Agreement and regardless of whether the NRSRO has provided a credit rating on a Security, your obligations under this Confidentiality Agreement will survive indefinitely.

7. Governing Law. This Confidentiality Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under the Confidentiality Agreement, the relationships of the parties and/or the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed within such State.

8. Amendments. This Confidentiality Agreement may be modified or waived only by a separate writing by the NRSRO and each Furnishing Entity.

9. Entire Agreement. This Confidentiality Agreement represents the entire agreement between you and the Furnishing Entities relating to the treatment of Confidential Information heretofore or hereafter reviewed or inspected by you. This agreement supersedes all other understandings and agreements between us relating to such matters; provided, however, that, if the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement conflict with another agreement relating to the Confidential Information that specifically states that the terms of such agreement shall supersede, modify or amend the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement, then to the extent the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement conflict with such agreement, the terms of such agreement shall control notwithstanding acceptance by you of the terms hereof by entry into this website.

Exhibit U-1

 

Re: BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-5C25, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C25

Mortgage Loan (the “Mortgage Loan”) identified by loan number _____ [and loan number [_______]] on the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and heretofore secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule by the following names:____________________
             ____________________

Reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement described above. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As Master Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, we hereby:

(a)       Notify you that the Mortgagor has consummated a defeasance of the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan, of the type checked below:

____   a full defeasance of the entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; or

____  a partial defeasance of a portion of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan that represents and, an allocated loan amount of $____________ or _______% of the entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan;

(b)       Certify that each of the following is true, subject to those exceptions set forth with explanatory notes on Exhibit A hereto, which exceptions the Master Servicer has determined, consistent with the Servicing Standards, will have no material adverse effect on the Mortgage Loan or the defeasance transaction:

(i)           The Mortgage Loan documents permit the defeasance, and the terms and conditions for defeasance specified therein were satisfied in all material respects in completing the defeasance.

(ii)          The defeasance was consummated on __________, 20__.

(iii)        The defeasance collateral consists of securities that (i) constitute “government securities” as defined in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (15 U.S.C. 80A1), (ii) are listed as “Qualified Investments for ‘AAA’ Financings” under Paragraphs 1, 2 or 3 of “Cash Flow Approach” in Standard & Poor’s Public Finance Criteria 2000, as amended to the date of the defeasance, (iii) if they include a principal obligation, the principal due at maturity cannot vary or change, and (iv) are not subject to prepayment, call or early redemption.

(iv)        The Master Servicer received an opinion of counsel (from counsel approved by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard) that the defeasance will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.

Exhibit U-2

(v)          The Master Servicer determined that the defeasance collateral will be owned by an entity (the “Defeasance Obligor”) that is a Single-Purpose Entity (as defined in Standard & Poor’s Structured Finance Ratings Real Estate Finance Criteria, as amended to the date of the defeasance (the “S&P Criteria”)) or is subject to restrictions in its organizational documents substantially similar to those contained in the organization documents of the original Borrower with respect to bankruptcy remoteness and single purpose as of the date of the defeasance, and after the defeasance owns no assets other than the defeasance collateral and real property securing Mortgage Loans included in the pool.

(vi)         The defeasance documents require the crediting of the defeasance collateral to an Eligible Account (as defined in the S&P Criteria) in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, which account is maintained as a securities account by a securities intermediary and has been pledged to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust.

(vii)       The agreements executed in connection with the defeasance (i) grant control of the pledged securities account to Trustee on behalf of the Trust, (ii) require the securities intermediary to make the scheduled payments on the Mortgage Loan from the proceeds of the defeasance collateral directly to the Master Servicer’s collection account in the amounts and on the dates specified in the Mortgage Loan documents or, in a partial defeasance, the portion of such scheduled payments attributed to the allocated loan amount for the real property defeased, increased by any defeasance premium specified in the Mortgage Loan documents (the “Scheduled Payments”), (iii) permit reinvestment of proceeds of the defeasance collateral only in Permitted Investments (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or as defined in the documents evidencing the defeasance), (iv) permit release of surplus defeasance collateral and earnings on reinvestment from the pledged securities account only after the Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, if any such release is permitted, (v) prohibit transfers by the Defeasance Obligor of the defeasance collateral and subordinate liens against the defeasance collateral, and (vi) provide for payment from sources other than the defeasance collateral or other assets of the Defeasance Obligor of all fees and expenses of the securities intermediary for administering the defeasance and the securities account and all fees and expenses of maintaining the existence of the Defeasance Obligor.

(viii)      The Master Servicer received written confirmation from a firm of independent certified public accountants, who were approved by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard stating that (i) revenues from the defeasance collateral (without taking into account any earnings on reinvestment of such revenues) will be sufficient to timely pay each of the Scheduled Payments after the defeasance including the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan (or the allocated portion thereof in connection with a partial defeasance) on its Maturity Date (or, in the case of an ARD Loan, on its Anticipated Repayment Date), (ii) the revenues received in any month from the defeasance collateral will be applied to make Scheduled Payments within four (4) months after the date of receipt, and (iii) interest income from the defeasance collateral to the Defeasance Obligor in any calendar or fiscal year will not exceed such Defeasance Obligor’s interest expense for the Mortgage Loan (or the allocated portion thereof in a partial defeasance) for such year.

Exhibit U-3

(ix)       The Mortgage Loan is not among the ten (10) largest loans in the pool as of the date of the Current Report (as defined below). The entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan as of the date of defeasance was less than both $[______] and five percent of pool balance, which is less than [__]% of the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Certificates as of the date of the most recent Distribution Date Statement received by us (the “Current Report”).

(x)         The Master Servicer has received opinions of counsel stating that the Trustee on behalf of the Trust possesses a valid, perfected first priority security interest in the defeasance collateral and that the documents executed in connection with the defeasance are enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.

(c)       Certify that Exhibit B hereto is a list of the material agreements, instruments, organizational documents for the Defeasance Obligor, and opinions of counsel and independent accountants executed and delivered in connection with the defeasance.

(d)       Certify that the individual under whose hand the Master Servicer has caused this Notice and Certification to be executed did constitute a Servicing Officer as of the date of the defeasance described above.

(e)       Agree to provide copies of all items listed in Exhibit B to you upon request.

II. Executive Summary

Based on the requirements and qualifications set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as well as the items listed below, the Operating Advisor (in accordance with the Operating Advisor’s analysis requirements outlined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) has undertaken a limited review of the Special Servicer’s reported actions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on the loans identified in this report. Based solely on such limited review and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set forth herein, the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer [is/is not] operating in compliance with the Servicing Standard with respect to its performance of its duties under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement during the prior calendar year on a “trust-level basis”. [The Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer has failed to materially comply with the Servicing Standard as a result of the following material deviations.]

In addition, the Operating Advisor notes the following: [PROVIDE SUMMARY OF ANY ADDITIONAL MATERIAL INFORMATION].

● [ADD RECOMMENDATION OF REPLACEMENT OF SPECIAL SERVICER, IF APPLICABLE]

III. List of Items that were Considered in Compiling this Report

In rendering the assessment set forth in this report, the Operating Advisor examined and relied upon the accuracy and the completion of the items listed below:

1. Any Major Decision Reporting Package that is delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

2. Reports by the Special Servicer made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the certificate administrator’s website that is relevant to the Operating Advisor’s obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, each Asset Status Report (after an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), and each Final Asset Status Report, in each case, delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

NOTE: The Operating Advisor’s review of the above materials should be considered a limited review and not be considered a full or limited audit, legal review or legal conclusion. For instance, we did not review each page of the Special Servicer’s policy and procedure manuals (including amendments and appendices), review underlying lease agreements or similar underlying documents, re-engineer the quantitative aspects of their net present value calculations, visit any related property, visit the Special Servicer, visit the Directing Certificateholder or interact with any borrower. In addition, our review of the net present value calculations and Appraisal Reduction Amount calculations is limited to the mathematical accuracy of the calculations and the corresponding application of the non-discretionary portions of the applicable formulas, and as such, does not take into account the reasonableness of the discretionary portions of such formulas.

IV. Assumptions, Qualifications Related to the Work Product Undertaken and Opinions Related to this Report

1. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Operating Advisor (i) is not required to report on instances of non-compliance with, or deviations from, the Servicing Standard or the special servicer’s obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement that the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, to be immaterial and (ii) will not be required in the ordinary course to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion as part of that assessment.

2. In rendering our assessment herein, we have assumed that all executed factual statements, instruments, and other documents that we have relied upon in rendering this assessment have been executed by persons with legal capacity to execute such documents.

3. Other than the receipt of any Major Decision Reporting Package or any Asset Status Report that is delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Operating Advisor did not participate in, or have access to, the Special Servicer’s and Directing

Exhibit V-3

Certificateholder’s discussion(s) regarding any Specially Serviced Loan. The Operating Advisor does not have authority to speak with the Directing Certificateholder or Mortgagor directly. As such, the Operating Advisor generally relied upon the information delivered to it by the Special Servicer as well as its interaction with the Special Servicer, if any, in gathering the relevant information to generate this report. The services that we perform are not designed and cannot be relied upon to detect fraud or illegal acts should any exist.

4. The Special Servicer has the legal authority and responsibility to service any Specially Serviced Loans pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Operating Advisor has no responsibility or authority to alter the standards set forth therein or direct the actions of the Special Servicer.

5. Confidentiality and other contractual limitations limit the Operating Advisor’s ability to outline the details or substance of any communications held between it and the Special Servicer regarding any Specially Serviced Loans and certain information it reviewed in connection with its duties under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As a result, this report may not reflect all the relevant information that the Operating Advisor is given access to by the Special Servicer.

6. There are many tasks that the Special Servicer undertakes on an ongoing basis related to Specially Serviced Loans. These include, but are not limited to, assumptions, ownership changes, collateral substitutions, capital reserve changes, etc. The Operating Advisor does not participate in any discussions regarding such actions. As such, the Operating Advisor has not assessed the Special Servicer’s operational compliance with respect to those types of actions.

7. The Operating Advisor is not empowered to speak with any investors directly. If the investors have questions regarding this report, they should address such questions to the certificate administrator through the certificate administrator’s website.

8. This report does not constitute recommendations to buy, sell or hold any security, nor does the Operating Advisor take into account market prices of securities or financial markets generally when performing its limited review of the Special Servicer as described above. The Operating Advisor does not have a fiduciary relationship with any Certificateholder or any other party or individual. Nothing is intended to or should be construed as creating a fiduciary relationship between the Operating Advisor and any Certificateholder, party or individual.

Terms used but not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Re: Access to Certain Information Regarding BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-5C25, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C25

To the above-mentioned addressees:

Reference is hereby made to that certain Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated and effective as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, 3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer. Defined terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

[Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association (“Midland”)/3650 REIT Loan Servicing LLC (“3650 REIT”)] understands that [____] (the “Company”) is requesting certain confidential or non-public information relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Company has continuing rights as a Certificateholder. The Company is requesting such information for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Company may have under the Trust (the “Permitted Purpose”). The Company agrees that the Permitted Purpose shall not include the use or disclosure of the Confidential Information (as defined below) in any manner that violates any applicable law, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the related mortgage loan documents.

[Midland/3650 REIT] will provide the Company with certain confidential, non-public servicing information (the “Confidential Information”) pertaining to the Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgaged Properties and borrowers. The Company acknowledges that the Confidential Information (a) includes or may be based upon information provided to [Midland/3650 REIT] by third parties, (b) may not have been verified by [Midland/3650 REIT],

Exhibit X-1

and (c) may be incomplete or contain inaccuracies. The Company agrees that [Midland/3650 REIT], the [“Master Servicer”/“Special Servicer”] (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and its respective Representatives (as defined below) shall not have any liability to the Company or its Representatives resulting from (x) any inaccuracies or omissions in the Confidential Information, (y) any use of the Confidential Information, or (z) [Midland/3650 REIT]’s failure or inability to provide the Confidential Information to the Company for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following will not constitute “Confidential Information” for purposes of this letter agreement: (a) information that was already in Company’s possession prior to its receipt from [Midland/3650 REIT]; (b) information that is obtained by Company from a third person who, insofar as is known to Company, is not prohibited from transmitting the information to Company by a contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation to [Midland/3650 REIT]; (c) information that is or becomes publicly available through no fault of Company; and (d) information that is independently developed by Company. The term “Representatives” with respect to any entity shall mean the officers, directors, general partners, employees, agents, affiliates, auditors and legal counsel (which may be internal counsel) of that entity.

The Company may have access to the Confidential Information through (at [Midland/3650 REIT]’s election): (i) responses to reasonable written inquiries received from the Company, (ii) conference calls conducted on a reasonably scheduled basis with [Midland/3650 REIT]’s surveillance group, or (iii) direct on-line access (read-only capacity) to the information available on the applicable [____] system or any successor or replacement system (“System”). [Midland/3650 REIT] may cease or defer providing the Company with Confidential Information in the event that (a) the Company or its Representatives violate any provision hereof, or (b) [Midland/3650 REIT] determines (in its sole discretion) that such termination is necessary for any reason, including its determination that such action is required pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the related Mortgage Loan documents, or any applicable law. [Midland/3650 REIT] shall cease to provide the Company with Confidential Information if [Midland/3650 REIT] has actual knowledge that the Company or its Representatives are affiliates of any borrower under the Mortgage Loan documents and [Midland/3650 REIT] determines that the provision, notice or access to such Confidential Information would violate the accepted servicing practices or servicing standards as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Company’s obligations and the restrictions applicable to the protection of the Confidential Information hereunder shall survive the termination of the Company’s access to the Confidential Information. [Midland/3650 REIT]’s remedies hereunder, at law or at equity, are cumulative and may be combined.

The Company agrees that it will not, and it shall not permit its Representatives, to disclose the Confidential Information in any manner whatsoever to any other person or entity, other than its Representatives (but only to the extent necessary to accomplish the Permitted Purpose) who have a need to know the information, or as otherwise required by applicable law, court order or any governmental agency or regulator. The Company acknowledges (i) its obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws, and (ii) that any disclosure of the Confidential Information by it or its Representatives for any purpose other than a Permitted Purpose, in addition to being a breach of this letter agreement, may constitute a violation of federal and state securities laws. The Company will take reasonable measures to ensure that each Representative is advised of this letter agreement and agrees to keep the Confidential Information confidential.

Exhibit X-2

The Company shall be liable for any breach of this letter agreement by its Representatives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may subsequently provide all or any part of such Confidential Information to any other person or entity that holds or is contemplating the purchase of any Certificate or interest therein, but only if such person or entity confirms such ownership interest or prospective ownership interest and provided that, prior to the delivery of such Confidential Information, such persons shall have executed and delivered to the Company an agreement that is substantially similar in form and substance to this agreement.

If the provisions of this Agreement are breached by the Company or its Representatives, Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless [Midland/3650 REIT] its successors and assigns, from and against any resulting loss, cost, damage or expense undertaken, paid, awarded, assessed, incurred or suffered by [Midland/3650 REIT]. Company shall be liable to [Midland/3650 REIT] for all court costs, reasonable and out of pocket attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by [Midland/3650 REIT] in enforcing its rights under this Agreement, recovering damages and/or obtaining other appropriate relief.

This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without the application of conflict of laws principles. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, [Midland/3650 REIT] intends at all times to comply with the terms and provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and nothing in this letter agreement should be construed to limit or qualify any of [Midland/3650 REIT]’s rights or obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. This letter agreement may be executed in counterparts and by facsimile/Portable Document Format (PDF); each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts together shall constitute one agreement.

This agreement shall terminate with respect to the information received by the Company one year after the Company receives such information or ceases to be a Certificateholder. Company agrees that this letter agreement supersedes and replaces and survives any click-through agreement regarding confidentiality of Confidential Information agreed to in connection with accessing the System whether agreed to in accessing the System before or after signing this letter agreement.

ASSET REVIEW PROCEDURES

Subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, this Exhibit sets forth the Asset Representations Reviewer’s review procedures for each Delinquent Loan based on the information provided for an Asset Review. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Exhibit QQ and the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall control and govern the Asset Representations Reviewer’s responsibilities and duties with respect to Asset Reviews.

 

Call for Review and Collection and Inventory of Review Materials

 

Step 1 Asset Representations Reviewer (“ARR”) receives the following items before beginning its review:

●                     CREFC^® Delinquent Loan Status Report

●                     Notice of Asset Review Trigger (with attachments)

●                     Notice of Asset Review Vote Election

●                     Notice of Affirmative Asset Review Vote

●                     Asset Review Notice

●                     List of all Subject Loans

●                     Review Materials for each Subject Loan via Secure Data Room access,

                including the Diligence File

●                     Any Unsolicited Information (if applicable)

 Step 2 For each Subject Loan, ARR inventories all Review Materials to which ARR is provided access in the Secure Data Room to determine what, if any, Review Materials for such Subject Loan are missing, using the list of documents provided in the definition of “Mortgage File” of this Agreement, any comparable lists included in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and any closing checklist from the origination of such Subject Loan, to guide its review and determination.

 Step 3 If ARR determines that the information made available to it in the Secure Data Room with respect to any Subject Loan is missing any documents required to complete an Asset Review of such Subject Loan, ARR prepares list of such

Exhibit QQ-1

missing documents and (i) notifies the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) of such missing documents, and requests that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, deliver to the ARR such missing document(s) to the extent in its possession and (ii) in the event any missing documents are not provided by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the ARR shall request such documents from the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

 

Analysis and Testing of Representations and Warranties

 

Step 4 For each Subject Loan for which ARR has received all Review Materials required to complete an Asset Review of such Subject Loan, ARR tests such Subject Loan for compliance with each representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Subject Loan as follows:

■ ARR reviews each representation and warranty and each item included in the Review Materials applicable or related to such representation or warranty to determine whether there is any evidence that such representation or warranty was not true when made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

 

■    For each representation and warranty, ARR lists

 

● all items from the Review Materials reviewed or used in its testing of such representation and warranty;

 

● whether ARR has determined that there is any evidence that such representation or warranty was not true when made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller; and

 

○ if so, stating the aspect of the applicable representation or warranty that does not appear to have been true when made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller and ARR’s basis for its conclusion;

 

○ completing the Asset Review Report by setting forth, for each Subject Loan, the information contemplated herein with respect to each representation and warranty.

 

ARR will not attempt (and has no obligation) to determine the materiality of any potential breach of a representation or warranty that it discovers evidence of during its review as contemplated herein.

This Pooling and Servicing Agreement is dated and effective as of May 1, 2024, among J.P. Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Corp., as Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

The Depositor intends to sell commercial mortgage pass-through certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”), to be issued hereunder in multiple classes (each, a “Class”), which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust to be created hereunder, the primary assets of which will be a pool of commercial mortgage loans. As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator shall elect or shall cause an election to be made to treat designated portions of the Trust (exclusive of the Excess Interest and the proceeds thereof in the Excess Interest Distribution Account) for federal income tax purposes as two separate real estate mortgage investment conduits (the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC”, and each a “Trust REMIC” as described herein).

In addition, the parties intend that the portion of the Trust Fund consisting of the Grantor Trust Designated Portions shall be classified as an “investment trust” under Section 301.7701-4(c) of the Treasury Regulations and that the holders of the Class A-3 Exchangeable Certificates, the Class A-S Exchangeable Certificates, the Class B Exchangeable Certificates and the Class C Exchangeable Certificates shall be treated as holding undivided beneficial ownership interests in the corresponding Grantor Trust Designated Portion, under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code (such arrangement, the “Grantor Trust”). The Certificate Administrator shall take all actions expressly required hereunder to ensure that the Grantor Trust remains classified as a grantor trust and that the holders of the Class A-3 Exchangeable Certificates, the Class A-S Exchangeable Certificates, the Class B Exchangeable Certificates and the Class C Exchangeable Certificates continue to be the owners of their Grantor Trust Designated Portions for federal income tax purposes. The Grantor Trust shall not be treated as part of either Trust REMIC.

The Depositor intends to sell the Certificates to the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers.

LOWER-TIER REMIC

The Lower-Tier REMIC will hold the Mortgage Loans (exclusive of any Excess Interest) and will issue the Class LA1, Class LA3, Class LAS, Class LB, Class LC, Class LD, Class LERR, Class LFRR, Class LGRR and Class LJRR Uncertificated Interests (the “Lower-Tier Regular Interests”), which will evidence the “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC created hereunder. The Lower-Tier REMIC will also issue the uncertificated Class LR Interest, which is the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions and is represented by the Class R Certificates.

 

The following table sets forth the Class designation, the initial Lower-Tier Principal Amounts (the “Original Lower-Tier Principal Amounts”) and per annum rates of interest for the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Class LR Interest:

Class Designation	Interest Rate	Original Lower-Tier Principal Amount
Class LA1	(1)		$1,922,000
Class LA3	(1)		$687,100,000
Class LAS	(1)		$115,657,000
Class LB	(1)		$45,525,000
Class LC	(1)		$38,142,000
Class LD	(1)		$10,828,000
Class LERR	(1)		$17,471,000
Class LFRR	(1)		$17,226,000
Class LGRR	(1)		$11,074,000
Class LJRR	(1)		$39,372,833
Class LR	None(2)	None(2)

 

(1) The interest rate for each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests on any Distribution Date will be the Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate for such Distribution Date.

(2) The Class LR Interest (evidenced by the Class R Certificates) will not have a Certificate Balance or a Notional Amount, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Available Funds remaining in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account after distributing the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount will be deemed distributed to the Class LR Interest and shall be payable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

UPPER-TIER REMIC

The Upper-Tier REMIC will hold the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and will issue the Class A-1, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class D, Class XERR, Class XFRR, Class XGRR, Class XJRR, Class E-RR, Class F-RR, Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates and the Class A-3, Class A-3-X1, Class A-3-X2, Class A-S, Class A-S-X1, Class A-S-X2, Class B, Class B-X1, Class B-X2, Class C, Class C-X1 and Class C-X2 Upper-Tier Regular Interests (the “Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests”), each of which will represent a “regular interest” in the Upper-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. Each regular interest that is represented by a Regular Certificate or an Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interest will have the same alphanumeric designation and initial pass-through rate, principal balance and entitlements as such Regular Certificate or Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interest, as described below under the caption “The Regular Certificates, Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests and Class UR Interest.” The Upper-Tier REMIC will also issue the uncertificated Class UR Interest, which is the sole class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions and is represented by the Class R Certificates. The Class R Certificates will not have a Certificate Balance or a Notional Amount, bear interest or be entitled to distributions of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Available Funds remaining in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, after all required distributions under this Agreement have been made to each Class of Regular Certificates and Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests will be deemed distributed to the Class UR Interest and shall be payable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

⁽¹⁾ The Pass-Through Rates for the Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class XERR, Class XFRR, Class XGRR and Class XJRR Certificates will be calculated in accordance with the definition of “Class X-A Pass-Through Rate”, “Class X-B Pass-Through Rate”, “Class X-D Pass-Through Rate”, “Class XERR Pass-Through Rate”, “Class XFRR Pass-Through Rate”, “Class XGRR Pass-Through Rate” and “Class XJRR Pass-Through Rate”, respectively.

⁽²⁾ None of the Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class XERR, Class XFRR, Class XGRR or Class XJRR Certificates or the Class A-3-X1, Class A-3-X2, Class A-S-X1, Class A-S-X2, Class B-X1, Class B-X2, Class C-X1 or Class C-X2 Upper-Tier Regular Interests will have a Certificate Balance or be entitled to distributions of principal; rather, such Classes will accrue interest as provided herein on the Notional Amount thereof.

⁽³⁾ The Class R Certificates will not have a Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, bear interest or be entitled to distributions of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Available Funds remaining in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, after all required

  -3-  

 

distributions under this Agreement have been made to each Class of Regular Certificates will be deemed distributed to the Class UR Interest and shall be payable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

The foregoing structure is intended to cause all of the cash flow from the Mortgage Loans (exclusive of Excess Interest) to flow through to the Upper-Tier REMIC as cash flow on the Regular Certificates and the Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests, without creating any shortfall, actual or potential (other than for credit losses), to any REMIC regular interests issued hereunder. To the extent that the structure is believed to diverge from such intention (without implying any duty of any such party to identify any such ambiguity), the party or parties identifying the subject defect or ambiguity shall notify the other parties hereto, whereupon the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the subject defect or ambiguity to accomplish the intended result and will to the extent necessary rectify any drafting errors or seek clarification to the structure without Certificateholder approval (but with guidance of counsel) to accomplish such intention, including, to the extent necessary, making any amendments in accordance with Section 13.01 of this Agreement. The other parties hereto agree to reasonably cooperate with the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator in connection with any amendment to this Agreement in furtherance of the foregoing.

THE GRANTOR TRUST

The following table sets forth each Class of Certificates that represents an undivided beneficial interest in the corresponding portion of the Grantor Trust (each such portion, a “Grantor Trust Designated Portion”).

Class of Certificates	Corresponding Grantor Trust Designated Portion
Each Class of Exchangeable Certificates	The related Exchangeable Class Specific Grantor Trust Assets

As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator shall not take any actions that would (i) cause the Grantor Trust not to be classified as a grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (ii) cause the holders of such Classes of Certificates not to be the owners of their Grantor Trust Designated Portions or (iii) cause the Grantor Trust to be treated as part of any Trust REMIC.

As of the close of business on the Cut-off Date, the Mortgage Loans had an aggregate principal balance, after application of all payments of principal due on or before such date, whether or not received, equal to $984,317,834.

“Nonrecoverable Advance”: Any Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. For the avoidance of doubt, Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts shall constitute Nonrecoverable Advances only when the Person making such determination in accordance with the procedures specified herein, and taking into account factors such as all other outstanding Advances, either (a) has determined that such Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts, would not ultimately be recoverable from Late Collections, Default Interest, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or any other recovery on or in respect of such Mortgage Loan or the related REO Property (without giving effect to potential recoveries on deficiency judgments or recoveries from guarantors), or (b) has determined that such Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount, along with any other Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts (that have not been reimbursed to the party that made such Advance) or unreimbursed Nonrecoverable Advances, would not be ultimately recoverable from the principal portion of future general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.

“Nonrecoverable P&I Advance”: Any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Mortgage Loan (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan), which the Trustee determines in its good faith business judgment or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard will not be ultimately recoverable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, from Late Collections or any other recovery on or in respect of such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may, at its option, make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made is or would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance and shall deliver to the Master Servicer (and with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan, to any Other Servicer, and with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer), the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the 17g-5 Information Provider notice of such determination. Any such determination (other than by the Special Servicer) shall not be binding upon (but may be conclusively relied upon by) the Master Servicer and the Trustee,

  -78-  

 

and any such determination by the Special Servicer shall be conclusive and binding upon the Master Servicer and the Trustee (but this statement shall not be construed to entitle the Special Servicer to reverse the determination of the Master Servicer or the Trustee or to prohibit the Master Servicer or the Trustee from making a determination that a P&I Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance), provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall have no such obligation to make an affirmative determination that any P&I Advance is or would be recoverable and in the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such P&I Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, such decision shall remain with the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion, and not all, of any previously made or proposed P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. With respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan, if any Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Trustee or Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with a securitization of the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan determines that a principal and interest advance with respect to the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan, if made, would be nonrecoverable, such determination shall not be binding on the Master Servicer and the Trustee as it relates to any proposed P&I Advance with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. Similarly, with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines that any P&I Advance with respect to a related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, such determination shall not be binding on the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer and related Non-Serviced Trustee as it relates to any proposed P&I Advance with respect to the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan (unless the related Non-Serviced PSA provides otherwise). In making such recoverability determination, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled (a) to consider (among other things) (i) the obligations of the Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, as it may have been modified and (ii) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as-is” or then-current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse changes with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, (b) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) future expenses, (c) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) the timing of recoveries and (d) to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advances which, at the time of such consideration, the recovery of which are being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer, in light of the fact that related proceeds are a source of recovery not only for the Advance under consideration but also a potential source of recovery for such delayed or deferred Advance. In addition, any Person, in considering whether a P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, will be entitled to give due regard to the existence of any outstanding Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount with respect to other Mortgage Loans, the reimbursement of which, at the time of such consideration, is being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee because there is insufficient

  -79-  

 

principal available for such recovery, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan are a source of recovery not only for the P&I Advance under consideration, but also as a potential source of reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts which are or may be being deferred or delayed. In addition, any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and, consistent with the Servicing Standard, in the case of the Master Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), may obtain at the expense of the Trust any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for making a recoverability determination. Absent bad faith, the Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s determination as to the recoverability of any P&I Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders. The determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, that a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance has been made or that any proposed P&I Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, or any updated or changed recoverability determination, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered by either the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer to the other and to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (but, in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and only with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan as to such party) (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer), the Operating Advisor (but only in the case of the Special Servicer) and the Depositor, or by the Trustee to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator (and, in the case of the Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer). The Officer’s Certificate shall set forth such determination of nonrecoverability and the considerations of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, forming the basis of such determination (which shall be accompanied by, to the extent available, related income and expense statements, rent rolls, occupancy status, property inspections and any other information used by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, to make such determination and shall include any existing Appraisal of the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property). The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination that a P&I Advance is or would be nonrecoverable, and the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on and shall be bound by the Special Servicer’s determination that a P&I Advance is or would be nonrecoverable.

“Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance”: Any Servicing Advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), Serviced Whole Loan or REO Property which the Trustee determines in its good faith business judgement or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard will not be ultimately recoverable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the Reimbursement Rate, from Late Collections or any other recovery on or in respect of such Mortgage Loan, Serviced Whole Loan or REO Property. In making such recoverability determination, such Person will be entitled (a) to consider (among other things) (i) the obligations of the Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, as it may have been modified and (ii) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as-is” or then-current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee)

  -80-  

 

regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse changes with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, (b) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) future expenses, (c) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) the timing of recoveries and (d) to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advances which, at the time of such consideration, the recovery of which are being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee because there is insufficient principal available for such recovery, in light of the fact that related proceeds are a source of recovery not only for the Advance under consideration but also a potential source of recovery for such delayed or deferred Advance. In addition, any Person, in considering whether a Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, will be entitled to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts with respect to other Mortgage Loans, the reimbursement of which, at the time of such consideration, is being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan are a source of recovery not only for the Servicing Advance under consideration, but also as a potential source of recovery of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts which are or may be being deferred or delayed. In addition, any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and, consistent with the Servicing Standard, in the case of the Master Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), may obtain at the expense of the Trust any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for making a recoverability determination. Absent bad faith, the Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s determination as to the recoverability of any Servicing Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders. The determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, that a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance has been made or that any proposed Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, or any updated or changed recoverability determination, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered by either the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer to the other and to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (but, in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and only with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan as to such party) (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer), the Operating Advisor (but only in the case of the Special Servicer) and the Depositor, or by the Trustee to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer); provided, however, that the Special Servicer may, at its option, make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that any Servicing Advance previously made or proposed to be made is or would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance and shall deliver to the Master Servicer (and with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan, to any Other Servicer), the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the 17g-5 Information Provider notice of such determination. Any such determination (other than by the Special Servicer) shall not be binding upon (but may be conclusively relied upon by) the Master Servicer and the Trustee, and any such determination by the Special Servicer shall be binding upon the Master Servicer and

  -81-  

 

the Trustee (but this statement shall not be construed to entitle the Special Servicer to reverse the determination of the Master Servicer or the Trustee or to prohibit the Master Servicer or the Trustee from making a determination that a Servicing Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance), provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall have no such obligation to make an affirmative determination that any Servicing Advance is or would be recoverable and in the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such Servicing Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, such decision shall remain with the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion, and not all, of any previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall each have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Officer’s Certificate shall set forth such determination of nonrecoverability and the considerations of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, forming the basis of such determination (which shall be accompanied by, to the extent available, related income and expense statements, rent rolls, occupancy status, property inspections and any other information used by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, to make such determination and shall include any existing Appraisal with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan or related Mortgaged Property). The Special Servicer shall promptly furnish any party required to make Servicing Advances hereunder with any information in its possession regarding the Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as such party required to make Servicing Advances may reasonably request for purposes of making recoverability determinations. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination that a Servicing Advance is or would be nonrecoverable, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination that a Servicing Advance is or would be nonrecoverable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Special Servicer requests that the Master Servicer make a Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer may conclusively rely on such request as evidence that such advance is not a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request more frequently than once per calendar month with respect to Servicing Advances other than emergency advances (although such request may relate to more than one Servicing Advance). In the case of a cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan (if any), such recoverability determination shall take into account the cross-collateralization of the related cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan. The determination as to the recoverability of any servicing advance or property protection advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be made by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer or Non-Serviced Trustee, as the case may be, pursuant to the related Non-Serviced PSA.

  -130-  

 

Section 2.01(b) shall be deemed to have been satisfied as to such non-delivered document or instrument, and such non-delivered document or instrument shall be deemed to have been included in the Mortgage File, if a photocopy of such non-delivered document or instrument (with evidence of filing or recording thereon and certified in the case of the documents and/or instruments referred to in clause (ii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” by the appropriate county recorder’s office or the applicable title insurance company (so long as such county recorder’s office or title insurance company provides such certification) to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording) is delivered to the Custodian on or before the date set forth herein. Neither the Trustee nor any Custodian shall in any way be liable for any failure by any Mortgage Loan Seller or the Depositor to comply with the delivery requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01(b). If, on the Closing Date as to any Mortgage Loan, subject to the next sentence, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is required to, but cannot, deliver (in complete and recordable form or form suitable for filing or recording, if applicable) any one of the assignments in favor of the Trustee referred to in clause (iii), clause (v), or clause (x) of the definition of “Mortgage File” solely because of the unavailability of filing or recording information as to any existing document or instrument, such Mortgage Loan Seller may provisionally satisfy the delivery requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01(b) with respect to such assignment by delivering with respect to such Mortgage Loan on the Closing Date an omnibus assignment of such Mortgage Loan substantially in the form of Exhibit H; provided that all required original assignments with respect to such Mortgage Loan (in fully complete and recordable form or form suitable for filing or recording, if applicable) are delivered to the Custodian within one hundred-eighty (180) days after the Closing Date (or within such longer period, not to exceed eighteen (18) months, which the Custodian shall consent to so long as the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is, as certified in writing to the Trustee and the Custodian no less often than every ninety (90) days following such 180–day period after the Closing Date, attempting in good faith to obtain from the appropriate public filing office or county recorder’s office the applicable filing or recording information as to the related document or instrument); and provided, further, that in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the delivery of any such assignments shall be subject to clause (e) and clause (f) of the first proviso to the definition of “Mortgage File” herein. As to any Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its agent is responsible for recording or filing, as applicable, any one of the assignments in favor of the Trustee referred to in clause (iii), clause (v), or clause (x) of the definition of “Mortgage File”, and such Mortgage Loan Seller may provisionally satisfy the delivery requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01(b) with respect to such assignment by delivering to the Custodian with respect to such Mortgage Loan on the Closing Date a copy of such assignment in the form sent for recording or filing or (except for recording or filing information not yet available) to be sent for recording or filing; provided that an original or copy of such assignment (with evidence of recording or filing, as applicable, indicated thereon) shall be delivered to the Custodian as contemplated by Section 2.01(c) of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to the delivery of a letter of credit in the manner described in clause (A) of clause (xii) of the definition of “Mortgage File”, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied the delivery requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01(b) by delivering to the Custodian within ten (10) Business Days following the Closing Date with respect to any such letter(s) of credit a copy of such letter of credit, the transfer documentation and such transmittal communication to the issuing bank indicating that such document has been delivered to the issuing bank for reissuance. If a

  -131-  

 

letter of credit is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Mortgage Loan documents, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver copies of the appropriate transfer or assignment documents to the Custodian promptly following receipt of written notification thereof. If not otherwise paid by the related Mortgagor, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay any transfer fee required in order to transfer the beneficiary’s interest from such Mortgage Loan Seller to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trust as required hereunder and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is reissued to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trust. Regardless of the manner of delivery, the related Mortgage Loan Seller is required pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to indemnify the Trust for any liabilities, charges, costs, fees or other expenses accruing from the failure of such Mortgage Loan Seller to assign all rights in and to the letter of credit hereunder including the right and power to draw on the letter of credit.

(c)               Except in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller is required at its sole cost and expense, to itself, or to engage a third party to, put each Assignment of Mortgage, each assignment of Assignment of Leases and each assignment of each UCC Financing Statement (collectively, the “Assignments” and, individually, “Assignment”) relating to the Mortgage Loans conveyed by it under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in proper form for filing or recording, as applicable, and to submit such Assignments for filing or recording, as the case may be, in the applicable public filing or recording office. On the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan Sellers may deliver one (1) omnibus assignment for all such Mortgage Loans substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto to the Custodian as provided in Section 2.01(b). Except under the circumstances provided for in the last sentence of this Section 2.01(c) and except in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller will itself, or a third party at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense will, promptly (and in any event within one hundred-twenty (120) days after the later of the Closing Date and the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s actual receipt of the related documents and the necessary recording and filing information) cause to be submitted for recording or filing, as the case may be, in the appropriate public office for real property records or UCC Financing Statements, as appropriate, each Assignment. Each such Assignment submitted for recording shall reflect that it (or a file copy thereof in the case of a UCC Assignment) should be returned by the public recording office to the Custodian or its designee following recording or filing (or to the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its agent who will then be responsible for delivery of the same to the Custodian or its designee). Any such Assignment received by the Custodian shall be promptly included in the related Mortgage File and be deemed a part thereof, and any such Assignment received by the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its agent shall be delivered to the Custodian to be included as part of the related Mortgage File within thirty (30) days after receipt. If any such document or instrument is determined to be incomplete or not to meet the recording or filing requirements of the jurisdiction in which it is to be recorded or filed, or is lost by the public office or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, on or about one hundred-eighty (180) days after the Closing Date, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee shall prepare, at its own expense, a substitute therefor or cure such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee shall, at the expense of such Mortgage Loan Seller, upon receipt thereof cause the same to be duly recorded or filed, as appropriate. If, by the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Custodian has not received confirmation of the

  -132-  

 

recording or filing as the case may be, of any such Assignment, it shall so advise the related Mortgage Loan Seller who may then pursue such confirmation itself or request that the Custodian pursue such confirmation at the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense, and upon such a request and provision for payment of such expenses satisfactory to the Custodian, the Custodian, at the expense of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, shall cause a search of the land records of each applicable jurisdiction and of the records of the offices of the applicable Secretary of State for confirmation that the Assignment appears in such records and retain a copy of such confirmation in the related Mortgage File. In the event that confirmation of the recording or filing of an Assignment cannot be obtained, the Custodian or the related Mortgage Loan Seller, as applicable, shall promptly inform the other and the Custodian shall provide such Mortgage Loan Seller with a copy of the Assignment and request the preparation of a new Assignment. The related Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay the expenses for the preparation of replacement Assignments for any Assignments which, having been properly submitted for filing or recording to the appropriate governmental office by the Custodian, fail to appear of record and must be resubmitted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no requirement to record any assignment to the Trustee referred to in clause (iii) or (v) of the definition of “Mortgage File,” or to file any UCC-3 to the Trustee referred to in clause (ix) of the definition of “Mortgage File,” in those jurisdictions where, in the written opinion of local counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the related Mortgage Loan Seller) acceptable to the Depositor and the Trustee, such recordation and/or filing is not required to protect the Trustee’s interest in the related Mortgage Loan against sale, further assignment, satisfaction or discharge by the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any Sub-Servicer or the Depositor.

(d)               All documents and records in the Depositor’s or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s possession relating to the Mortgage Loans (including, in the case of such Mortgage Loan Seller, and except in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan, originals or copies of all financial statements, operating statements, appraisals, environmental reports, engineering reports, Insurance Policies, certificates, guaranty/indemnity agreements, property inspection reports, escrow analysis, tax bills, third-party management agreements, asset summary and financial information on the borrower/sponsor and any guarantor, but in any case excluding the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s internal communications (including such communications between such Mortgage Loan Seller and its Affiliates) or underwriting analysis (including documents prepared by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or any of its Affiliates for such purposes), draft documents or any documents or materials prepared by it or its Affiliates for internal uses, attorney-client communications that are privileged communications or constitute legal or other due diligence analyses or credit underwriting or due diligence analyses or data) that (i) are not required to be a part of a Mortgage File in accordance with the definition thereof and (ii) are reasonably necessary for the servicing of each such Mortgage Loan, together with copies of all documents in each Mortgage File, shall be delivered or otherwise made available by the Depositor or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller to the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date and shall be held by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) and, if applicable, on behalf of the related Companion Holder; provided, that with respect to the Mortgage File, if any document required to be contained therein is not available on the date that is five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date, such document shall be delivered to the Master Servicer on or before the date such document is required to be delivered to the Custodian pursuant to Section 2.01(b). Such documents and records shall be any documents and records (with the

  -133-  

 

exception of any items excluded under the immediately preceding sentence) that would otherwise be a part of the Servicing File.

(e)               In connection with the Depositor’s assignment pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, on or before two (2) Business Days after the Closing Date, a fully executed original counterpart of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements, as in full force and effect, without amendment or modification, on the Closing Date.

(f)                The Depositor shall use its reasonable best efforts to require that, promptly after the Closing Date, but in all events within three (3) Business Days after the Closing Date, each of the Mortgage Loan Sellers shall cause all funds on deposit in escrow accounts maintained with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) transferred by such Mortgage Loan Seller, whether such accounts are held in the name of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or any other name to be transferred to the Master Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer) for deposit into Servicing Accounts.

(g)               With respect to the Mortgage Loans secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule as “Hampton Inn & Suites National Harbor”, “La Quinta Inn Brownwood” and “Hampton Inn Oklahoma City NE”, which are each subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the respective Mortgage Loan Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or otherwise have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee shall provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor (with a copy of such notice or request to the Master Servicer) within forty-five (45) days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter). If the Master Servicer is unable to acquire any such replacement comfort letter (or new document or acknowledgement, as applicable) within one hundred-twenty (120) days of the Closing Date, the Master Servicer shall notify the related Mortgage Loan Seller that no such replacement comfort letter has been received.

(h)               Each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall provide that within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, each Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered the Diligence Files for each of its Mortgage Loans to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence Files to the Designated Site. Promptly upon completion of such delivery of the Diligence Files (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date), the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall provide the Depositor a certificate (with a copy (which may be sent by e-mail) to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) certifying that the electronic copies of the documents and information uploaded to the Designated Site constitute all documents and information required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure

If any Mortgage Loan Seller is unable to deliver or cause the delivery of any original Mortgage Note, such Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver a copy of such Mortgage Note, together with a signed lost note affidavit and appropriate indemnity and shall thereby be deemed to have satisfied the document delivery requirements of Section 2.01 and of this Section 2.02.

(b)               Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date (or with respect to a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan within sixty (60) days after the Due Date in the month of substitution), the Custodian shall review the Mortgage Loan documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers constituting the Mortgage Files; and, promptly following such review (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date), the Custodian shall, in the form attached as Exhibit Q, certify in writing to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (so long as no Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and only with respect to Mortgage Loans other than any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class), the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Operating Advisor and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full)) that, except as specifically identified in any exception report annexed to such writing (the “Custodial Exception Report”), (i) subject to the first proviso of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein and Section 2.01, all documents specified in clauses (i) through (v), (viii), (ix), (xi), (xii) and (xiii), if any, of the definition of “Mortgage File”, as applicable, are in its possession, (ii) the foregoing documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers have been reviewed by the Custodian and appear regular on their face and appear to be executed and to relate to such Mortgage Loan, and (iii) based on such examination and only as to the foregoing documents, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the items specified in clauses (iii), (vii) and (viii) in the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” is correct. With respect to each Mortgage Loan

  -136-  

 

listed on the Custodial Exception Report, the Custodian shall specifically identify such Mortgage Loan together with the nature of such exception (in the form reasonably acceptable to the Custodian and the related Mortgage Loan Seller and separating items required to be in the Mortgage File but never delivered from items which were delivered by the related Mortgage Loan Seller but are out for filing or recording and have not been returned by the filing office or the recorder’s office).

(c)               The Custodian shall review the Mortgage Loan documents received subsequent to the Closing Date; and, on or about the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Custodian shall, in the form attached as Exhibit Q, certify in writing to each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (as to each Mortgage Loan listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any related Mortgage Loan as to which a Liquidation Event has occurred) or any related Mortgage Loan specifically identified in any exception report annexed to such writing) that, (i) subject to the first proviso of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein and Section 2.01, all documents specified in clauses (i) through (v), (viii), (ix), (xi), (xii) and (xiii), if any, of the definition of “Mortgage File”, as applicable, are in its possession, (ii) the foregoing documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers have been reviewed by the Custodian and appear regular on their face and appear to be executed and relate to such Mortgage Loan, if applicable, and (iii) based on such examination and only as to the foregoing documents, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the items specified in clauses (iii), (vii) and (viii) in the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” is correct.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.02 and Section 2.03(b) to the contrary, in the case of a Material Defect in any of the documents specified in clauses (ii) through (v), (vii), (viii) and (ix) in the definition of “Mortgage File”, which Material Defect results solely from a delay in the return of the related documents from the applicable filing or recording office and gives rise to a repurchase or substitution obligation on the part of the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the subject Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Directing Certificateholder, in its sole judgment, may (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class and, with respect to any other Mortgage Loan, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event), and the Special Servicer may, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, permit the related Mortgage Loan Seller in lieu of repurchasing or substituting for the related Mortgage Loan, to deposit with the Master Servicer an amount, to be held in trust in a segregated Eligible Account (which may be a sub-account of the Collection Account), equal to 25% of the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan (in the alternative, the related Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver to the Master Servicer a letter of credit in such amount, with a copy to the Custodian). Such funds or letter of credit, as applicable, shall be held by the Master Servicer (i) until the date on which the Custodian determines and notifies the Master Servicer that such Material Defect has been cured or the related Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund, at which time the Master Servicer shall return such funds (or letter of credit) to the related Mortgage Loan Seller, or (ii) until same are applied to the Purchase Price (or the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if applicable) as set forth below in this Section 2.02(d) in the event of a repurchase or substitution by the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Notwithstanding the two immediately preceding sentences, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer certifies

  -137-  

 

to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Custodian that it has determined in the exercise of its reasonable judgment that the document with respect to which such Material Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the mortgagee’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on collateral securing the related Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall repurchase or substitute for the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with, and to the extent required by, the terms and conditions of Section 2.03(b) and Section 5 of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that such Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be required to repurchase the Mortgage Loan for a period of ninety (90) days after receipt of a notice to repurchase (together with any applicable extension period) if it is attempting to recover the document from the applicable filing or recording office and provides an officer’s certificate setting forth what actions such Mortgage Loan Seller is pursuing in connection with such recovery. In the event of a repurchase or substitution, upon the date of such repurchase or substitution, and in the event that the related Mortgage Loan Seller has delivered a letter of credit to the Master Servicer in accordance with this Section 2.02(d), the Master Servicer shall, to the extent necessary, draw on the letter of credit and deposit the proceeds of such draw, into the Collection Account to be applied to the Purchase Price (or the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if applicable, in which event, the amount of such funds or proceeds that exceed the Substitution Shortfall Amount shall be returned to the related Mortgage Loan Seller) in accordance with Section 2.03(b). All such funds deposited in the Collection Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments, at the direction and for the benefit of the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Such funds shall be treated as an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h), which, together with any reimbursement from the Lower-Tier REMIC, is beneficially owned by the related Mortgage Loan Seller for federal income tax purposes, which Mortgage Loan Seller shall remain liable for any taxes payable on income or gain with respect thereto.

(e)               It is herein acknowledged that neither the Trustee nor any Custodian is under any duty or obligation (i) to determine whether any of the documents specified in clauses (vi), (vii) and (xii) through (xviii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” exist or are required to be delivered by the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers or any other Person or (ii) to inspect, review or examine any of the documents, instruments, certificates or other papers relating to the Mortgage Loans delivered to it to determine that the same are genuine, enforceable, duly authorized, sufficient to perfect and maintain the perfection of a security interest or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face and, with respect to the documents specified in clause (viii) of the definition of the “Mortgage File”, whether the insurance is effective as of the date of the recordation, whether all endorsements or riders issued are included in the file or if the policy has not been issued whether any acceptable replacement document has been dated the date of the related Mortgage Loan funding. Further, with respect to the UCC Financing Statements referenced in the Mortgage File, absent actual knowledge to the contrary or copies of UCC Financing Statements delivered to the Custodian as part of the Mortgage File indicating otherwise, the Custodian may assume, for the purposes of the filings and the certification to be delivered in accordance with this Section 2.02 that the related Mortgage File should include one state level UCC Financing Statement filing for each Mortgaged Property (or with respect to any Mortgage Loan that has two or more Mortgagors, for each Mortgagor, except to the extent multiple Mortgagors are named as debtors in the same UCC

  -138-  

 

Financing Statement filing), or if the Custodian has received notice that a particular UCC Financing Statement was filed as a fixture filing, that the related Mortgage File should include only a local UCC Financing Statement filing for each Mortgaged Property (or with respect to any Mortgage Loan that has two or more Mortgagors, for each Mortgagor, except to the extent multiple Mortgagors are named as debtors in the same UCC Financing Statement filing). The assignments of the UCC Financing Statements to be assigned to the Trust will be delivered on the national forms (or on such other form as may be acceptable for filing or recording in the applicable jurisdiction) and in a format suitable for filing or recording, as applicable, and will be filed or recorded in the jurisdiction(s) where such UCC Financing Statements were originally filed or recorded, as indicated in the documents provided, and in accordance with then-current laws.

(f)                If, in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files or at any time thereafter, the Custodian finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File and required to be delivered or caused to be delivered by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (1) not to have been properly executed, (2) subject to the timing requirements of Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c), not to have been delivered, (3) to contain information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule or (4) to be defective on its face (each, a “Defect” in the related Mortgage File), the Custodian shall promptly so notify the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (and in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date and every calendar quarter thereafter until all Defects are corrected) by providing a Custodial Exception Report setting forth for each affected Mortgage Loan, with particularity, the nature of such Defect (in a form reasonably acceptable to the Custodian and such Mortgage Loan Seller and separating items required to be in the Mortgage File but never delivered from items which were delivered by such Mortgage Loan Seller but are out for recording or filing and have not been returned by the recorder’s office or filing office).

(g)               If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (i) receives a Repurchase Request or any other request or demand from any Person for a Mortgage Loan Seller to repurchase or replace a Mortgage Loan because of an alleged Defect or Breach (together with a Repurchase Request, a “15Ga-1 Repurchase Request”) (the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to the extent it receives such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, the “Repurchase Request Recipient” with respect to such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request); or (ii) receives any withdrawal of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request by the Person making such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request or any rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (or such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is forwarded to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer by another party hereto), then the Repurchase Request Recipient shall deliver notice (which may be by electronic format so long as a “backup” hard copy of such notice is also delivered on or prior to the next Business Day) of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request or withdrawal or rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (each, a “15Ga-1 Notice”) to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (other than in the case of a rejection by such Mortgage Loan Seller) and the Depositor, in each case within ten (10) Business Days from such Repurchase Request Recipient’s receipt thereof.

Each 15Ga-1 Notice shall include (i) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the date the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is received by the Repurchase Request Recipient or the date any withdrawal of the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is received by the Repurchase Request Recipient, as applicable, (iii) if known, the basis for the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (as asserted

  -139-  

 

in the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request), (iv) the identity of the Person making such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, and (v) a statement from the Repurchase Request Recipient as to whether it currently plans to pursue such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request.

A Repurchase Request Recipient shall not be required to provide any information in a 15Ga-1 Notice protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. The Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements will provide that (i) any 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to this Section 2.02(g) is so provided only to assist the Mortgage Loan Sellers and Depositor or their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law or regulation and (ii) (A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Repurchase Request Recipient and (B) no information provided pursuant to this Section 2.02(g) by a Repurchase Request Recipient, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Repurchase Request Recipient may have with respect to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including with respect to any 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request that is the subject of a 15Ga-1 Notice.

In the event that the Depositor, the Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian receives a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, such party shall promptly forward or otherwise provide written notice of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request to the Master Servicer, if relating to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, or to the Special Servicer, if relating to a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property, and include the following statement in the related correspondence: “This is a ‘15Ga-1 Repurchase Request’ under Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to the BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5YR6 requiring action by you as the ‘Repurchase Request Recipient’ thereunder.” Upon receipt of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, such party shall be deemed to be the Repurchase Request Recipient in respect of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, and such party shall comply with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.02(g) with respect to such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request. In no event shall the Custodian, by virtue of this provision, be required to provide any notice other than as set forth in Section 2.02 of this Agreement in connection with its review of the Mortgage File.

If the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian receives notice or has knowledge of a withdrawal or a rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request of which notice has been previously received or given, and such notice was not received from or copied to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, then such party shall give notice of such withdrawal or rejection to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. Any such notice received by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, Operating Advisor, Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian shall also be provided to the Depositor and, in the case of a withdrawal notice, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller.

In the event that a Mortgage Loan is repurchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 of this Agreement, the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) shall promptly notify the Depositor of such repurchase or replacement.

(i)                                   The Depositor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of North Carolina, and the Depositor has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all the transactions contemplated hereby, including, but not limited to, the power and authority to sell, assign and transfer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement;

(iii)                             The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder by the Depositor will not conflict with any provisions of any law or regulations to which the Depositor is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the certificate of incorporation or the by-laws of the Depositor or any indenture, agreement or instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Depositor, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Depositor’s assets or property, which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Depositor to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; the Depositor has obtained any consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Depositor of this Agreement;

(iv)                            There is no action, suit or proceeding pending or, to the Depositor’s knowledge, threatened against the Depositor in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of the Mortgage Loans or the ability of the Depositor to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(v)                                The Depositor is the lawful owner of the Mortgage Loans with the full right to transfer the Mortgage Loans to the Trust, and the Mortgage Loans have been validly transferred to the Trust.

(b)               After receipt of a Repurchase Request, the Enforcing Servicer shall request in writing that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, not later than ninety (90) days after (i) except in the case of the succeeding clause (ii), the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s receipt of such

  -141-  

 

notice of such Repurchase Request or, if earlier, such Mortgage Loan Seller’s discovery of such Material Defect or (ii) in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, the earlier of (x) discovery by the related Mortgage Loan Seller or any party to this Agreement of such Material Defect and (y) receipt of notice of the Material Defect from any party to this Agreement (such ninety (90) day period, the “Initial Cure Period”), (A) cure such Material Defect in all material respects, at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s own expense, including reimbursement of any related reasonable additional expenses of the Trust reasonably incurred by any party to this Agreement, (B) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or REO Loan (excluding any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable) (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof), at the applicable Purchase Price and in conformity with the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement or (C) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to the Whole Loans, for which no substitution will be permitted) for such affected Mortgage Loan or REO Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur on or after the second anniversary of the Closing Date) and pay the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith and in conformity with the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement; provided, however, that except with respect to a Material Defect resulting solely from the failure by the Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver to the Trustee or Custodian the actual policy of lender’s title insurance required pursuant to clause (viii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” by a date not later than eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date, if such Material Defect is capable of being cured but is not cured within the Initial Cure Period, and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within the Initial Cure Period, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall have an additional ninety (90) days commencing immediately upon the expiration of the Initial Cure Period (such additional ninety (90) day period, the “Extended Cure Period”) to complete such cure (or, failing such cure, to repurchase the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan (excluding any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable) (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to the Whole Loans, for which no substitution will be permitted)) and provided, further, that with respect to such Extended Cure Period the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall have delivered an officer’s certificate to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator (who shall promptly deliver a copy of such officer’s certificate to the 17g-5 Information Provider), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) the Directing Certificateholder, setting forth the reason such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the Initial Cure Period and what actions the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller anticipates that such Material Defect will be cured within the Extended Cure Period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is not cured after the Initial Cure Period and any such Extended Cure Period solely due to the failure of the related Mortgage Loan Seller to have received the recorded document, then such Mortgage Loan Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect until eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date for so long as such Mortgage Loan Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (prior to the occurrence

  -142-  

 

and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) and the Certificate Administrator no less than every ninety (90) days, beginning at the end of such Extended Cure Period, that such Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that such Mortgage Loan Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such Material Defect (specifying the actions being taken). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Defect or Breach which causes any Mortgage Loan not to be a Qualified Mortgage shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interests of Certificateholders therein, and (subject to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s right to cure such Defect or Breach during the Initial Cure Period) such Mortgage Loan shall be repurchased or substituted for without regard to the Extended Cure Period described in the preceding sentence. If the affected Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased, the funds in the amount of the Purchase Price remitted by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller are to be remitted by wire transfer to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account. In the event the Special Servicer is required to enforce the Repurchase Request related to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan under this Section 2.03(b), within five (5) days of request by the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Special Servicer a copy of the Servicing File with respect to any such Non-Specially Serviced Loan.

If a Mortgage Loan Seller, in connection with a Material Defect (or an allegation of a Material Defect) pertaining to a Mortgage Loan, makes a cash payment pursuant to an agreement or a settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Enforcing Servicer on behalf of the Trust (and, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and in respect of any Mortgage Loan that is not an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class or a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder) (each such payment, a “Loss of Value Payment”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such Loss of Value Payment shall be deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to be applied in accordance with Section 3.05(g) of this Agreement. In connection with any Loss of Value Payment with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide the Special Servicer, but in any event within the time frames and in the manner provided in Section 3.19 (as if such Mortgage Loan were subject to a Servicing Transfer Event), with the Servicing File and all information, documents and records relating to such Non-Specially Serviced Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan, either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise reasonably available to the Master Servicer, and reasonably required by the Special Servicer to permit the Special Servicer to calculate the Loss of Value Payment, to the extent set forth in Section 3.19 (as if such Mortgage Loan were subject to a Servicing Transfer Event). The Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Enforcing Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) and not previously paid by the Mortgage Loan Seller. If such Loss of Value Payment is made, the Loss of Value Payment shall serve as the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders and the Trustee on their behalf regarding any such Material Defect in lieu of any obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller to otherwise cure such Material Defect or repurchase or substitute for the affected Mortgage Loan based on such Material Defect under any circumstances. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Enforcing Servicer on behalf of the Trust, provided that (i) prior to any such agreement or settlement nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Enforcing

  -143-  

 

Servicer from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and timing set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Section 2.03 (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for such Mortgage Loan), (ii) such Loss of Value Payment shall not be greater than the Purchase Price of the affected Mortgage Loan; and (iii) a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that causes a defective Mortgage Loan to be treated as a “qualified mortgage”) may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment.

If any Breach that constitutes a Material Defect pertains to a representation or warranty that the related Mortgage Loan documents or any particular Mortgage Loan document requires the related Mortgagor to bear the costs and expenses associated with any particular action or matter under such Mortgage Loan document(s), then the related Mortgage Loan Seller may cure such Breach within the applicable cure period (as the same may be extended) by reimbursing the Trust (by wire transfer of immediately available funds) for (i) the reasonable amount of any such costs and expenses incurred by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust that are incurred as a result of such Breach and have not been reimbursed by the related Mortgagor and (ii) the amount of any fees payable by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer to the extent not previously paid by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan; provided that if the Breach relates to a Joint Mortgage Loan, each Mortgage Loan Seller shall be responsible for its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of all such costs and expenses unless such Breach relates solely to the Mortgage Note contributed by such Mortgage Loan Seller. Except as provided in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall remit the amount of such costs and expenses to the applicable Enforcing Servicer for disbursements to the applicable Persons and, upon its making such remittance, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have cured such Breach in all respects. To the extent any fees or expenses that are the subject of a cure by the related Mortgage Loan Seller are subsequently obtained from the related Mortgagor, the portion of the cure payment made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller equal to such fees or expenses obtained from the related Mortgagor shall promptly be returned to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Periodic Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Periodic Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Periodic Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Periodic Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and are to be remitted by the Master Servicer (or by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer who shall remit such funds) to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller effecting the related repurchase or substitution promptly following receipt. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, a delay in either the discovery of a Material Defect or in providing notice of such Material Defect shall relieve the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller of its obligation to cure, repurchase or substitute for (or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to) the related Mortgage Loan if it is otherwise required to do so under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase

  -144-  

 

Agreement and/or this Article II if (i) the related Mortgage Loan Seller did not otherwise discover or have knowledge of such Material Defect, (ii) such delay is a result of the failure by a party to the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, or this Agreement, to provide prompt notice as required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, or this Agreement, after such party has actual knowledge of such Material Defect (knowledge shall not be deemed to exist by reason of the Custodial Exception Report), (iii) such Material Defect does not relate to the applicable Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iv) such delay or failure to provide notice (as required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Agreement) prevented the Mortgage Loan Seller from being able to cure such Material Defect and such Material Defect was otherwise curable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a borrower), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a borrower), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC Financing Statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

Pursuant to each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, if there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties with respect to a Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase the Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Mortgage Loan documents (and such Mortgaged Property is, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the Mortgage Loan documents and the related Mortgage Loan Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such release in lieu of repurchase would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each applicable Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

(c)               Subject to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s right to cure as contemplated above in this Section 2.03, and further subject to Section 2.01(b) and Section 2.01(c), any of the following shall cause a document in the Mortgage File to be deemed to have a Material Defect: (i) the absence from the Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage Note, unless the Mortgage File contains a signed lost note affidavit and indemnity with a copy of the Mortgage Note that appears to be regular on its face; (ii) the absence from the Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage that appears to be regular on its face, unless there is included in the Mortgage File either a copy of the Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon or a copy of the Mortgage and a certificate from the related Mortgage Loan Seller stating that the original signed Mortgage was sent for recordation; (iii) the absence from the Mortgage File of the item called for by clause (viii) of the definition of “Mortgage File”; (iv) the absence from the Mortgage File of any intervening assignments required to create a complete chain of assignments to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, unless there is included in the Mortgage File either a copy of the assignment with evidence of recording thereon or a copy of the intervening assignment and a certificate from the related Mortgage Loan Seller stating that the original intervening assignments were sent for filing or recordation, as applicable; (v) the absence from the Mortgage File of any required letter of credit; or (vi) with respect to any related leasehold Mortgage Loan, the absence from the related Mortgage File of a copy (or an original, if available) of the related Ground Lease; provided, however, that no Defect (except the Defects previously described in sub-clauses (ii) through (vi) of this Section 2.03(c)) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect the value

  -145-  

 

of the related Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders unless the document with respect to which the Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the mortgagee’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the related Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation; provided, further, that no Defect relating to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan previously described in sub-clauses (ii) through (vi) of this Section 2.03(c) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect the value of such Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trustee or Certificateholders unless the related Mortgage Loan Seller, after receipt of notice of such Defect, is unable to produce a copy of the document with respect to which the Defect exists within a reasonable period after receiving such notice or otherwise establish that the original or copy, as applicable, of such document has been delivered, in compliance with the terms of the related Non-Serviced PSA, to the custodian under the related Non-Serviced PSA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delivery of executed escrow instructions or a binding commitment to issue a lender’s title insurance policy, as provided in clause (viii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein, in lieu of the delivery of the actual policy of lender’s title insurance, shall not be considered a Material Defect with respect to any Mortgage File if such actual policy is delivered to the Custodian not later than eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a Mortgage Loan Seller has otherwise complied with its document delivery requirements under this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, in the event that the Custodian has acknowledged receipt pursuant to Section 2.02 above of a document that is part of the Mortgage File or a Mortgage Loan Seller can otherwise prove delivery of the document, and the Custodian subsequently loses a document, the fact that such document is lost may not be utilized as the basis for a claim of a Material Defect against a Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to Section 5(a) of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and/or this Section 2.03 and the Custodian shall be liable for any such loss to the extent provided for in Section 8.01.

(d)               In connection with any repurchase of, or substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a Mortgage Loan contemplated by this Section 2.03, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, upon delivery to each of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer of a trust receipt executed by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File and other documents pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by each of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer (other than attorney-client communications that are privileged communications), and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File that was endorsed or assigned to the Trustee shall be endorsed or assigned, as the case may be to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller in the same manner as provided in Section 5 of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and, if applicable, the definition of “Mortgage File” herein, so as to vest in such Mortgage Loan Seller the legal and beneficial ownership of such repurchased or substituted Mortgage Loan (including property acquired in respect thereof and proceeds of any insurance policy with respect thereto) and the related Mortgage Loan documents.

  -146-  

 

(e)               Section 5 of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements and the provisions of this Section 2.03 provide the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders (subject to the limitations on the rights of the Certificateholders under this Agreement), or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, with respect to any Material Defect.

(f)                The Enforcing Servicer shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), enforce the obligations of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, if any, shall be carried out in the best interest of the Certificateholders in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Any costs incurred by an Enforcing Servicer with respect to the enforcement of the obligations of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall, to the extent not recovered from the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, be deemed to be Servicing Advances to the extent not otherwise provided for herein. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be reimbursed for the reasonable costs of such enforcement: first, from a specific recovery, if any, of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller; second, pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vii) herein out of the related Purchase Price, to the extent that such expenses are a specific component thereof; and third, if at the conclusion of such enforcement action it is determined that the amounts described in clauses first and second are insufficient, then pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vii) herein out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Collection Account. Any costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees related to a repurchase of a Companion Loan shall be paid pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement or pursuant to the documents related to an Other Securitization, if applicable.

(g)               If a Mortgage Loan Seller incurs any expense in connection with the curing of a Breach that constitutes a Material Defect, which also constitutes a default under the related Mortgage Loan and is reimbursable thereunder, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall have a right, and shall be subrogated to the rights of the Trustee and the Trust under the Mortgage Loan to recover the amount of such expenses from the related Mortgagor; provided, however, that such Mortgage Loan Seller’s rights pursuant to this Section 2.03(g) shall be junior, subject and subordinate to the rights of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to recover amounts owed by the related Mortgagor under the terms of such Mortgage Loan including, without limitation, the rights to recover unreimbursed Advances, accrued and unpaid interest on Advances at the Reimbursement Rate, fees owed to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, and unpaid or unreimbursed expenses of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer allocable to such Mortgage Loan. The Enforcing Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to recover such expenses for such Mortgage Loan Seller to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, but taking into account the subordinate nature of the reimbursement to the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, however, that the Enforcing Servicer determines in the exercise of its sole discretion consistent with the Servicing Standard that such actions by it will not impair the Enforcing Servicer’s collection or recovery of principal, interest and other sums due with respect to the related Mortgage Loan that would otherwise be payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Certificateholders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, further, that the Special Servicer may waive the collection of amounts due on behalf of such Mortgage Loan Seller in its sole discretion in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

  -147-  

 

(h)               If (i) any Crossed Underlying Loan is required to be repurchased or substituted for in the manner described in this Section 2.03 and (ii) the applicable Material Defect does not constitute a Material Defect as to any other Crossed Underlying Loan in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Material Defect shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to any other Crossed Underlying Loan in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group for purposes of this paragraph, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall repurchase or substitute for such other Crossed Underlying Loan(s) in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group as provided in Section 2.03(b) unless such other Crossed Underlying Loans satisfy the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria. In the event that the remaining Crossed Underlying Loans in such Crossed Mortgage Loan Group satisfy the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller may elect either to repurchase or substitute for only the affected Crossed Underlying Loan(s) as to which the related Material Defect exists or to repurchase or substitute for all of the Crossed Underlying Loans in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing the Crossed Underlying Loans shall be allocated among the related Crossed Underlying Loans in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. Except as provided in this Section 2.03(h) and Section 2.03(i), all other terms of the related Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect without any modification thereof.

(i)                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the related Mortgage provides for the partial release of one or more of the Crossed Underlying Loans, the Depositor may cause the related Mortgage Loan Seller to repurchase only that Crossed Underlying Loan required to be repurchased pursuant to this Section 2.03, pursuant to the partial release provisions of the related Mortgage; provided, however, that (i) the remaining related Crossed Underlying Loan(s) fully comply with the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage, this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria, (ii) in connection with such partial release, the related Mortgage Loan Seller obtains an Opinion of Counsel (at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense) to the effect that the contemplated action will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event and (iii) in connection with such partial release, the related Mortgage Loan Seller delivers or causes to be delivered to the Custodian original modifications to the Mortgage prepared and executed in connection with such partial release.

(j)                 With respect to any Crossed Underlying Loan, to the extent that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is required to repurchase or substitute for such Crossed Underlying Loan in the manner prescribed in Section 2.03(h) or Section 2.03(i) while the Trustee continues to hold any other Crossed Underlying Loans in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, as assignee of the Depositor, will, as set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each will be permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective related Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loans still held by the Trustee, so long as such exercise does not materially impair the ability of the other party to exercise its remedies against its Primary Collateral. If the exercise of the remedies by one party would materially impair the ability of the other party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Crossed Underlying Loans held by such party, then both parties have agreed in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to

  -148-  

 

forbear from exercising such remedies until the Mortgage Loan documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loan can be modified in a manner that complies with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to remove the threat of material impairment as a result of the exercise of remedies.

(k)               (i) In the event an Initial Requesting Certificateholder delivers a written request to a party to this Agreement that a Mortgage Loan be repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller alleging the existence of a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “Certificateholder Repurchase Request”), such party shall promptly forward that Certificateholder Repurchase Request to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly forward that Repurchase Request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller and each other party to this Agreement. Subject to Section 2.03(l), the Enforcing Servicer shall be the Enforcing Party with respect to a Certificateholder Repurchase Request.

(ii)                                In the event that the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor (solely in its capacity as operating advisor) or the Directing Certificateholder identifies a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan (without implying any duty of such person to make, or to attempt to make, such a discovery), that party shall deliver prompt written notice of such Material Defect to each other party to this Agreement, the Directing Certificateholder and the related Mortgage Loan Seller identifying the applicable Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “PSA Party Repurchase Request” and each of a Certificateholder Repurchase Request or a PSA Party Repurchase Request, the “Repurchase Request”) and the Enforcing Servicer shall promptly send the PSA Party Repurchase Request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. The Enforcing Servicer shall act as the Enforcing Party and enforce the rights of the Trust against the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to a PSA Party Repurchase Request.

(iii)                             In the event the Repurchase Request is not Resolved within one hundred-eighty (180) days after the Mortgage Loan Seller receives the Repurchase Request (a “Resolution Failure”), then the provisions described in Section 2.03(l) below shall apply. Receipt of the Repurchase Request shall be deemed to occur two (2) Business Days after the Repurchase Request is sent to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. A Resolved Repurchase Request shall not preclude the Master Servicer (in the case of Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (in the case of Specially Serviced Loans) from exercising any of their respective rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and timing otherwise set forth in this Agreement, in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or as provided by law.

(iv)                            In the event a Repurchase Request is Resolved in a manner contemplated by clause (v) of the definition thereof, in the event the Enforcing Servicer determines in its reasonable judgment that such a contractually binding agreement to be entered into between the Enforcing Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller could reasonably be expected to result in losses or other shortfalls on or in respect of the related Mortgage Loan directly attributable to the contractually binding agreement, then the Enforcing Servicer shall, prior to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event,

  -149-  

 

obtain the consent of the Directing Certificateholder before entering into such contractually binding agreement; provided, however, no such consent will be required (i) if the related Mortgage Loan is an Excluded Loan with regard to the Directing Certificateholder, or (ii) if no such determination is made by the Enforcing Servicer.

(l)                 (i) Within two (2) Business Days after a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a PSA Party Repurchase Request made by any party other than the Special Servicer or a Certificateholder Repurchase Request made by any Certificateholder other than the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, in each case, related to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall send a written notice (a “Master Servicer Proposed Course of Action Notice”) to the Special Servicer, indicating the Master Servicer’s analysis and recommended course of action with respect to such PSA Party Repurchase Request. The Master Servicer will also be required to deliver to the Special Servicer the Servicing File and all information, documents and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Non-Specially Serviced Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan(s), either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise reasonably available to the Master Servicer, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to the extent set forth in Section 3.19. Upon receipt of such Master Servicer Proposed Course of Action Notice and such Servicing File and other material, the Special Servicer shall become the Enforcing Servicer with respect to such PSA Party Repurchase Request. After a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a Repurchase Request regarding a Mortgage Loan (whether the Repurchase Request was initiated by an Initial Requesting Certificateholder, a party to this Agreement or the Directing Certificateholder), the Enforcing Servicer shall send a notice (a “Proposed Course of Action Notice”) to the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, to the address specified in the Initial Requesting Certificateholder’s Repurchase Request, and to the Certificate Administrator (which shall be delivered via electronic mail to trustadministrationgroup@computershare.com). The Certificate Administrator shall make the Proposed Course of Action Notice available to all other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website indicating the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request (the “Proposed Course of Action”). If the Master Servicer is the Enforcing Servicer, the Master Servicer may (but shall not be obligated to) consult with the Special Servicer and (for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred) the Directing Certificateholder regarding any Proposed Course of Action. The Proposed Course of Action Notice shall include (a) a request to Certificateholders to indicate their agreement with or dissent from such Proposed Course of Action, by clearly marking “agree” or “disagree” to the Proposed Course of Action on such notice within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice and a disclaimer that responses received after such thirty (30)-day period will not be taken into consideration, (b) a statement that in the event any Certificateholder disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action, the Enforcing Servicer (either as the Enforcing Party or as the Enforcing Servicer in circumstances where a Certificateholder is acting as the Enforcing Party) shall be compelled to follow the course of action agreed to and/or proposed by the majority of the responding Certificateholders that involves referring the matter to mediation or arbitration, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures relating to the delivery of Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notices and Final Dispute Resolution Election Notices described in this Section 2.03(l), (c) a statement that responding Certificateholders will be required to certify their holdings in connection with such response, (d) a statement that only responses clearly marked “agree” or “disagree” with such Proposed Course of Action will be taken into consideration and (e) instructions for responding

  -150-  

 

Certificateholders to send their responses to the Enforcing Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. The Certificate Administrator shall, within three (3) Business Days after the expiration of the 30-day response period, tabulate the responses received from the Certificateholders and share the results with the Enforcing Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall only count responses timely received that clearly indicate agreement or dissent with the related Proposed Course of Action and additional verbiage or qualifying language shall not be taken into consideration for purposes of determining whether the related Certificateholder agrees or disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action. The Certificate Administrator shall be under no obligation to answer any questions from Certificateholders regarding such Proposed Course of Action. For the avoidance of doubt, the Certificate Administrator’s obligations in connection with this Section 2.03(l) shall be limited solely to tabulating Certificateholder responses of “agree” or “disagree” to the Proposed Course of Action, and such obligation shall not be construed to impose any enforcement obligation on the Certificate Administrator. The Enforcing Servicer may conclusively rely (without investigation) on the Certificate Administrator’s tabulation of the responses of the responding Certificateholders and whether that amount constitutes a majority. If (a) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request does not involve pursuing further action to exercise rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request and the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner wishes to exercise its right to refer the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration, or (b) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action is to pursue further action to exercise rights against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request but the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner does not agree with the dispute resolution method selected by the Enforcing Servicer, then the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or such other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner may deliver to the Enforcing Servicer a written notice (a “Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice”) within thirty (30) days after the date the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (the “Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date”) indicating its intent to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration. In the event that (a) the Enforcing Servicer’s initial Proposed Course of Action indicated a recommendation to undertake mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or arbitration, (b) any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice, and (c) the Enforcing Servicer also received responses from other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners supporting the Enforcing Servicer’s initial Proposed Course of Action, such additional responses from other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners will also be considered Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notices supporting such Proposed Course of Action for purposes of determining the course of action approved by the majority of responding Certificateholders.

(ii)                                If neither the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, nor any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner entitled to do so delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice prior to the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date, no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner otherwise entitled to do so shall have the right to refer the Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration, and the Enforcing Servicer as the Enforcing Party shall be the sole party entitled to determine a course of action, including, but not limited to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller, subject to any consent or consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to Section 6.08.

  -151-  

 

(iii)                             Promptly and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice from (a) the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or (b) any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner (each of clauses (a) and (b), a “Requesting Certificateholder”), the Enforcing Servicer shall consult with each Requesting Certificateholder regarding such Requesting Certificateholder’s intention to elect either mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration as the dispute resolution method with respect to the Repurchase Request (the “Dispute Resolution Consultation”) so that such Requesting Certificateholder may consider the views of the Enforcing Servicer as to the claims underlying the Repurchase Request and possible dispute resolution methods, such discussions to occur and be completed no later than ten (10) Business Days following the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date. The Enforcing Servicer shall be entitled to establish procedures the Enforcing Servicer deems in good faith to be appropriate relating to the timing and extent of such consultations. No later than five (5) Business Days after completion of the Dispute Resolution Consultation, a Requesting Certificateholder may provide a final notice to the Enforcing Servicer indicating its decision to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation or arbitration (“Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice”).

(iv)                            If, following the Dispute Resolution Consultation, no Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then the Enforcing Servicer will continue to act as the Enforcing Party and will remain obligated under this Agreement to determine a course of action including, but not limited to, enforcing the rights of the Trust with respect to the Repurchase Request and no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration.

(v)                               If a Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then such Requesting Certificateholder shall become the Enforcing Party and must promptly submit the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration. If there is more than one Requesting Certificateholder that timely deliver a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice, then such Requesting Certificateholders shall collectively become the Enforcing Party, and the holder or holders of a majority of the Voting Rights among such Requesting Certificateholders shall be entitled to make all decisions relating to such mediation or arbitration. If, however, no Requesting Certificateholder commences arbitration or mediation pursuant to the terms of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of its Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then (i) the rights of a Requesting Certificateholder to act as the Enforcing Party shall terminate and no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration, (ii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice indicated that the Enforcing Servicer shall take no further action with respect to the Repurchase Request, then the related Material Defect shall be deemed waived for all purposes under this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that such Material Defect shall not be deemed waived with respect to a Requesting Certificateholder, any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner or the Enforcing Servicer to the extent there is a material change in the facts and circumstances known to such party at the time when the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the

  -152-  

 

certificate administrator’s website, and (iii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice had indicated a course of action other than the course of action under clause (ii), then the Enforcing Servicer shall again become the Enforcing Party and, as such, shall be the sole party entitled to enforce the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

(vi)                             Notwithstanding the foregoing, the dispute resolution provisions described above under this Section 2.03(l) shall not apply, and the Enforcing Servicer shall remain the Enforcing Party, if the Enforcing Servicer has commenced litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request, or determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that it is in the best interest of Certificateholders to commence litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request to avoid the running of any applicable statute of limitations.

(vii)                         In the event a Requesting Certificateholder becomes the Enforcing Party, the Enforcing Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, shall remain a party to any proceedings against the related Mortgage Loan Seller as further described herein.

(viii)                      For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the subject Mortgage Loan or any of their respective affiliates shall be entitled to be an Initial Requesting Certificateholder or a Requesting Certificateholder, to act as a Certificateholder for purposes of delivering any Preliminary Dispute Resolution Notice or Final Dispute Resolution Notice or otherwise to vote Certificates owned by it or such affiliate(s) with respect to a course of action proposed or undertaken pursuant to the procedures described under this Section 2.03(l).

(ix)                              Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.03(l), the Requesting Certificateholder is entitled to elect either mediation or arbitration in its sole discretion; however, the Requesting Certificateholder shall not be entitled to then utilize the alternative method in the event that the initial method is unsuccessful.

(m)                              If the Enforcing Party selects mediation (including nonbinding arbitration), the following provisions shall apply:

(i)                                  The mediation shall be administered by a nationally recognized mediation services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller within sixty (60) days of receipt of written notice of the Enforcing Party’s selection of mediation (such provider, the “Mediation Services Provider”) in accordance with published mediation procedures (the “Mediation Rules”) promulgated by the Mediation Services Provider.

(ii)                                 The mediator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the state of New York and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in commercial litigation, and if possible, commercial real estate finance or commercial mortgage-backed securitization matters and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Mediation Services Provider. Upon being supplied a list of at least ten (10) potential qualified mediators by the Mediation Services Provider each party will have the right to exercise two (2) peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential mediators in order of preference. The Mediation Services Provider shall select

  -153-  

 

the mediator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii)                              Prior to accepting an appointment, the mediator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the hearings within the prescribed time schedule.

(iv)                            The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct an organizational conference to begin the mediation within ten (10) Business Days of the selection of the mediator and to conclude the mediation within sixty (60) days thereafter.

(v)                               The expenses of any mediation shall be allocated among the parties to the mediation including, if applicable, between the Enforcing Party and the Enforcing Servicer, as mutually agreed by the parties as part of the mediation.

(vi)                            Out of pocket costs and expenses of the Special Servicer for mediation or arbitration, to the extent not agreed to be paid by the Enforcing Party or another party (in the case of mediation) or allocated to the Enforcing Party or another party (in the case of arbitration) shall be reimbursable as a Servicing Advance.

(n)                               If the Enforcing Party selects third-party arbitration, the following provisions will apply:

(i)                                   The arbitration shall be administered by a nationally recognized arbitration services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller within sixty (60) days of receipt of written notice of the Enforcing Party’s selection of arbitration (such provider, the “Arbitration Services Provider”) in accordance with published arbitration procedures (the “Arbitration Rules”) promulgated by the Arbitration Services Provider.

(ii)                                The arbitrator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in commercial litigation, and if possible, commercial real estate finance or commercial mortgage-backed securitization matters and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Arbitration Services Provider. Upon being supplied a list of at least ten (10) potential arbitrators by the Arbitration Services Provider each party will have the right to exercise two (2) peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential arbitrators in order of preference. The Arbitration Services Provider will select the arbitrator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii)                             Prior to accepting an appointment, the arbitrator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the hearings within the prescribed time schedule.

(iv)                            After consulting with the parties at an organizational conference held not later than ten (10) Business Days after its appointment, the arbitrator shall devise procedures and deadlines for the arbitration, to the extent not already agreed to by the parties, with the goal of expediting the proceeding and completing the arbitration within

  -154-  

 

120 days. The arbitrator shall have the authority to schedule, hear, and determine any and all motions, including dispositive and discovery motions, in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for non-jury matters (the “Rules”) (including summary judgment and other prehearing and post hearing motions), and will do so by reasoned decision on the motion of any party to the arbitration.

(v)                               Notwithstanding whatever other discovery may be available under the Rules, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, each party to the arbitration will be presumptively limited to the following discovery in the arbitration: (A) the parties shall reasonably and in good faith voluntarily produce to all other parties all documents upon which they intend to rely and all documents they reasonably and in good faith believe to be relevant to the claims or defenses asserted by any of the parties, (B) party witness depositions (excluding Rule 30b-6 witnesses), and (C) expert witness depositions, provided that the arbitrator shall have the ability to grant the parties, or either of them, additional discovery to the extent that the arbitrator determines good cause is shown that such additional discovery is reasonable and necessary.

(vi)                            The arbitrator shall make its final determination no later than thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the hearings and submission of any post-hearing submissions. The arbitrator shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, and may not modify or change those agreements in any way or award remedies not consistent with those agreements. The arbitrator will not have the power to award punitive damages or consequential damages in any arbitration conducted by them. Interest on any monetary award shall bear interest from the date of the Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice at the Prime Rate. In its final determination, the arbitrator shall determine and award the costs of the arbitration (including the fees of the arbitrator, cost of any record or transcript of the arbitration, and administrative fees) and shall award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the parties to the arbitration as determined by the arbitrator in its reasonable discretion. The determination of the arbitrator shall be by a reasoned decision in writing and counterpart copies will be promptly delivered to the parties. The final determination of the arbitrator shall be final and non-appealable, except for actions to confirm or vacate the determination permitted under federal or state law, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(vii)                         By selecting arbitration, the selecting party is giving up the right to sue in court, including the right to a trial by jury.

(viii)                      No person may bring a putative or certificated class action to arbitration.

(o)                              The following provisions will apply to both mediation and third-party arbitration:

(i)                                  Any mediation or arbitration will be held in New York, New York unless another location is agreed by all parties;

(ii)                                 If the dispute involves a matter that cannot effectively be remedied by the payment of damages, or if there be any dispute relating to arbitration or the arbitrators that

  -155-  

 

cannot be resolved promptly by the arbitrators or the Arbitration Services Provider, then any party in such instance may during the pendency of the arbitration proceedings seek temporary equitable remedies, pending the final decision of the arbitration panel, solely by application in the Southern District of New York if such court shall have subject matter jurisdiction, or if the Southern District of New York has no jurisdiction, then the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York. The arbitration proceedings shall not be stayed unless so ordered by the court.

(iii)                             The details and/or existence of any Repurchase Request, any informal meetings, mediations or arbitration proceedings conducted under this Section 2.03, including all offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the parties’ attempt to informally resolve any Repurchase Request, will be confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any mediation, arbitration or litigation, or other proceeding (including any proceeding under this Section 2.03). Such information will be kept strictly confidential and shall not be disclosed or shared with any third party (other than a party’s attorneys, experts, accountants and other agents and representatives, as reasonably required in connection with any resolution procedure under this Section 2.03), except as otherwise required by law, regulatory requirement or court order. If any party to a resolution procedure receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party (other than a governmental regulatory body) for such confidential information, the recipient shall promptly notify the other party to the resolution procedure and shall provide the other party with a reasonable opportunity to object to the production of its confidential information.

(iv)                            In the event a Requesting Certificateholder is the Enforcing Party, the agreement with the arbitrator or mediator, as the case may be, shall contain an acknowledgment that the Trust, or the Enforcing Servicer on its behalf, shall be a party to any arbitration or mediation proceedings solely for the purpose of being the beneficiary of any award in favor of the Enforcing Party; provided that the degree and extent to which the Enforcing Servicer actively prepares for and participates in such proceeding shall be determined by such Enforcing Servicer in consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (provided that a Consultation Termination Event has not occurred and is not continuing) and in accordance with the Servicing Standard. All amounts recovered by the Enforcing Party shall be paid to the Trust, or the Enforcing Servicer on its behalf, and deposited in the Collection Account. The agreement with the arbitrator or mediator, as the case may be, shall provide that in the event a Requesting Certificateholder is allocated any related costs and expenses pursuant to the terms of the arbitrator’s decision or the agreement reached in mediation, neither the Trust nor the Enforcing Servicer acting on its behalf shall be responsible for any such costs and expenses allocated to the Requesting Certificateholder.

(v)                               In the event a Requesting Certificateholder is the Enforcing Party, the Requesting Certificateholder is required to pay any expenses allocated to the Enforcing Party in the arbitration proceedings or any expenses that the Enforcing Party agrees to bear in the mediation proceedings.

(vi)                            The Trust (or the Trustee or the Enforcing Servicer, acting on its behalf), the Depositor or any Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted to redact any personally identifiable customer information included in any information provided for purposes of any mediation or arbitration. Each party to the proceedings shall agree to keep confidential the details related to the Repurchase Request and the dispute resolution identified in connection with such procedures; provided, however, that (A) the Certificateholders shall be permitted to communicate prior to the commencement of any such proceedings to the extent provided in Section 5.06 and (B) the Enforcing Servicer shall be permitted to include such information in any 15Ga-1 Notice as it is required pursuant to Section 2.02(g).

(vii)                         For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the exercise of any right of a Requesting Certificateholder to refer a Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration or participation in such mediation or arbitration affect in any manner the ability of the Enforcing Servicer to perform its obligations with respect to a Mortgage Loan (including without limitation, a liquidation, foreclosure, negotiation of a loan modification or workout, acceptance of a discounted pay-off or deed-in-lieu, or bankruptcy or other litigation) or the exercise of any rights of a Directing Certificateholder.

(viii)                      In the event that the method of dispute resolution selected is unsuccessful, the Requesting Certificateholder may not elect to then utilize the alternative method.

(ix)                              Any out-of-pocket expenses required to be borne by or allocated to the Enforcing Servicer in a mediation or arbitration or related responsibilities under this Agreement shall be reimbursable as additional Trust Fund expenses.

(p)                                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers to repurchase with respect to a Material Defect with respect to the related Mortgage Loan shall be limited to a repurchase with respect to the Mortgage Note it sold to the Depositor in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. With respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, any cure by any of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers with respect to the Mortgage Note sold by it to the Depositor in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that also cures the Material Defect with respect to the entire related Joint Mortgage Loan shall satisfy the cure obligations of each of the Mortgage Loan Sellers with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan.

The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall act in accordance with the Servicing Standard with respect to any action required to be taken regarding the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans pursuant to their obligations under this Agreement.

  -159-  

 

Without limiting the foregoing, subject to Section 3.19, the Special Servicer shall be obligated to service and administer (i) any Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any related Serviced Companion Loans as to which a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred and is continuing (each, a “Specially Serviced Loan”) or as otherwise provided herein with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans in connection with any Major Decision and (ii) any REO Properties (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgaged Properties); provided that the Master Servicer shall continue to receive payments and make all calculations, and prepare, or cause to be prepared, all reports, required hereunder with respect to the Specially Serviced Loans, except for the reports specified herein as prepared by the Special Servicer, as if no Servicing Transfer Event had occurred and with respect to the REO Properties (and the related REO Loans) as if no REO Acquisition had occurred, and to render such services with respect to such Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for herein; provided, further, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be liable for failure to comply with such duties insofar as such failure results from a failure of the Special Servicer to provide sufficient information to the Master Servicer to comply with such duties or failure by the Special Servicer to otherwise comply with its obligations hereunder. The Master Servicer, in its capacity as Master Servicer shall not have any responsibility for the performance by the Special Servicer, in its capacity as Special Servicer, of its duties under this Agreement. The Special Servicer, in its capacity as Special Servicer, shall not have any responsibility for the performance by the Master Servicer, in its capacity as Master Servicer, of its duties under this Agreement. Each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan that becomes a Specially Serviced Loan shall continue as such until satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 3.19(a). Without limiting the foregoing, subject to Section 3.19 and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be obligated to service and administer any Non-Specially Serviced Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan. The Special Servicer shall make the property inspections, use its reasonable efforts to collect the financial statements, budgets, operating statements and rent rolls and forward to the Master Servicer the reports in respect of the related Mortgaged Properties with respect to Specially Serviced Loans in accordance with Section 3.12. After notification to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer may contact the Mortgagor of any Non-Specially Serviced Loan if efforts by the Master Servicer to collect required financial information have been unsuccessful or any other issues remain unresolved. Such contact shall be coordinated through and with the cooperation of the Master Servicer. No provision herein contained shall be construed as an express or implied guarantee by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of the collectability or recoverability of payments on the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loan or be construed to impair or adversely affect any rights or benefits provided by this Agreement to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (including with respect to Servicing Fees, Special Servicing Fees or the right to be reimbursed for Advances and interest accrued thereon). Any provision in this Agreement for any Advance by the Master Servicer or the Trustee is intended solely to provide liquidity for the benefit of the Certificateholders and not as credit support or otherwise to impose on any such Person the risk of loss with respect to one or more of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans. No provision hereof shall be construed to impose liability on the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer for the reason that any recovery to the Certificateholders in respect of a Mortgage Loan at any time after a determination of present value recovery is less than the amount reflected in such determination.

(b)               Subject only to the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 6.08) and of the respective Mortgage Loans, any related

  -160-

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, in its own name (or in the name of the Trustee and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder), is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders (and, with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder) and the Trustee or any of them, with respect to each Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan it is obligated to service under this Agreement: (i) any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by the related Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, and shall, from time to time, execute and/or deliver such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments as necessary to maintain the lien created by the related Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral; (ii) subject to Sections 3.08, 3.18 and 6.08, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to, under or with respect to any documents contained in the related Mortgage File; (iii) any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, pledge agreements and other documents in connection with a defeasance, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments; and (iv) any or all complaints or other pleadings to initiate and/or to terminate any action, suit or proceeding on behalf of the Trust in their representative capacities (except as set forth below in this paragraph). The Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) shall provide to the Mortgagor related to such Mortgage Loans that it is servicing any reports required to be provided to them pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents. Subject to Section 3.10, the Trustee shall (i) within 10 Business Days following the Closing Date, furnish to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer original powers of attorney in the form of Exhibit R-1 or Exhibit R-2 attached hereto, as applicable (or such other form as mutually agreed to by the Trustee and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) and (ii) upon request, furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer any powers of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit R-1 or Exhibit R-2 attached hereto, as applicable (or such other form as mutually agreed to by the Trustee and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be held responsible or liable for any acts of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, or for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not, without the Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, representative capacity (unless prohibited by any requirement of the applicable jurisdiction in which any such action, suit or proceeding is brought and if so prohibited, in the manner required by such jurisdiction (provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall then provide five (5) Business Days’ written notice to the Trustee of the initiation of such action, suit or proceeding (or such

  -161-  

 

shorter time period as is reasonably required in the judgment of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, made in accordance with the Servicing Standard) prior to filing such action, suit or proceeding, and shall not be required to obtain the Trustee’s consent or indicate the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, representative capacity)) or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and that actually causes, the Trustee to be required to be registered to do business in any state.

(c)               To the extent the Master Servicer is permitted pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) to exercise its discretion with respect to any action that requires Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall require the costs of such Rating Agency Confirmation to be borne by the related Mortgagor. To the extent the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) require the Mortgagor to bear the costs of any Rating Agency Confirmation or confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall not waive the requirement that such costs and expenses be borne by the related Mortgagor. To the extent that the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) are silent as to who bears the costs of any Rating Agency Confirmation or confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the Mortgagor bear such costs and expenses. The Master Servicer shall not be responsible for the payment of such costs and expenses out of pocket other than as a Servicing Advance.

(d)               The relationship of each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the Trustee under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent.

(e)               The Master Servicer shall, to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents or any related Companion Loan documents, and consistent with the Servicing Standard, permit Escrow Payments to be invested only in Permitted Investments.

(f)                Within sixty (60) days (or such shorter time period as is required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents) after the later of (i) the receipt thereof by the Master Servicer and (ii) the Closing Date, the Master Servicer shall notify each lessor under a Ground Lease for each Mortgage Loan identified as subject to a leasehold interest on the Mortgage

  -162-  

 

Loan Schedule, that the Trust is the leasehold mortgagee and that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall service the related Mortgage Loan for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The costs and expenses of any modifications to Ground Leases shall be paid by the related Mortgagor.

With respect to letters of credit delivered in accordance with subclause (B) of clause (xii) of the definition of “Mortgage File”, (a) within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date or such shorter period as is required by the terms of such letter of credit or other applicable Mortgage Loan documents, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall notify the bank issuing the letter of credit that the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee shall be the beneficiary under such letter of credit, and (b) within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date, the Master Servicer shall present such letter of credit and the related assignment documentation delivered by the Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with such subclause of the definition of “Mortgage File” to the letter of credit bank issuing such letter of credit and request that such letter of credit bank reissue the letter of credit in the name of “Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, on behalf of Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Trustee, for the benefit of registered holders of BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5YR6”. The Master Servicer shall otherwise use reasonable efforts to obtain such reissued letter of credit back from the issuing letter of credit bank within sixty (60) days (and in any event within ninety (90) days) following the Closing Date. The related Mortgage Loan Seller shall provide such reasonable cooperation as requested by the Master Servicer, including without limitation by delivering such additional assignment or amendment documents required by the issuing bank in order to reissue a letter of credit as provided above.

(g)               If a letter of credit is required to be drawn upon earlier than the date that the letter of credit has been revised as contemplated in clause (f) above, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with making a draw under such letter of credit. If the Mortgage Loan documents do not require the related Mortgagor to pay any costs and expenses relating to any modifications to or assignment of the related letter of credit, then the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay such costs and expenses as and to the extent required under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. If the Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to pay any costs and expenses relating to any modifications to the related letter of credit, and such Mortgagor fails to pay such costs and expenses after the Master Servicer has exercised reasonable efforts to collect such costs and expenses from such Mortgagor, then the Master Servicer shall give the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller notice of such failure and the amount of costs and expenses, and such Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay such costs and expenses as and to the extent required under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. The costs and expenses of any modifications to Ground Leases shall be paid by the related Mortgagor. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability for the failure of any Mortgage Loan Seller to perform its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

The Master Servicer acknowledges that any letter of credit held by it shall be held in its capacity as agent of the Trust, and if the Master Servicer sells its rights to service the applicable Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall assign the applicable letter of credit to the Trust or (with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan) at the direction of the Special Servicer to such party as the Special Servicer may instruct, in each case at the expense of the Master Servicer.

The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Trust for any loss caused by the ineffectiveness of such assignment.

(h)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) make an Advance with respect to any Companion Loan to the extent the related Serviced Mortgage Loan has been paid in full or is no longer included in the Trust Fund.

(i)                 Servicing and administration of each Serviced Companion Loan shall continue hereunder and in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement for so long as the corresponding Serviced Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property is part of the Trust Fund or for such longer period as is contemplated by the related Intercreditor Agreement and, to the extent consistent with the related Intercreditor Agreement, as any amounts payable by the related Companion Holder to or for the benefit of the Trust or any party hereto in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement remain due and owing.

(j)                 The Special Servicer agrees that upon the occurrence of a Servicing Transfer Event with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that is subject to or becomes subject to an Intercreditor Agreement in the future, it shall, subject to Section 3.19, use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce, on behalf of the Trust, subject to the Servicing Standard and to the extent the Special Servicer determines such action is in the best interests of the Trust, all rights conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to any such Intercreditor Agreement. The costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with such enforcement shall be paid as a Trust Fund expense or, subject to the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, (i) with respect to any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, pro rata and pari passu, by the Trust and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Holder(s), in accordance with the respective outstanding principal balances of the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) or (ii) with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, first, by any related AB Subordinate Companion Loan holders and then, pro rata and pari passu, by the Trust and any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Holders, in accordance with the respective outstanding principal balances of the related Serviced AB Mortgage Loan and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

(k)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, to the extent required under the related Intercreditor Agreement, the servicing and administration of a Serviced Whole Loan shall continue hereunder (but not with respect to making Advances) even if the related Serviced Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund, until such time as a separate servicing agreement is entered into in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement (it being acknowledged that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be obligated under a separate agreement to which it is not a party); provided that, other than pursuant to Section 6.04 (and, with respect to Section 6.04, solely with respect to claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and expenses relating to the enforcement of such indemnity) incurred in connection with a legal claim or action resulting from an action or inaction taken or not taken while the related Serviced Mortgage Loan was part of the Trust Fund), no costs, expenses, losses or fees accruing with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan on and after the date the related Serviced Mortgage

  -164-  

 

Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund shall be payable out of the Trust Fund and the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Advance on or after the date such Serviced Mortgage Loan ceases to be part of the Trust Fund; provided, however, that if, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan continues to be included in an Other Securitization, then for so long as a separate servicing agreement (pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement) has not been entered into, the Master Servicer shall inform the related Other Servicer of any need to make Servicing Advances with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan within three (3) Business Days of determining that such an Advance is necessary or being notified that such an Advance is necessary, or in the case of a Servicing Advance that needs to be made on an emergency or urgent basis, within one (1) Business Day. With respect to Servicing Advances made by any Other Servicer as contemplated in the second proviso to the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall, from collections on the related Serviced Whole Loan (but never out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties) received by the Master Servicer, reimburse the Other Servicer for such Servicing Advances in the same manner and on the same level of priority as if such Servicing Advances had been made by the Master Servicer hereunder.

(l)                 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s authority with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan are limited by and subject to the terms of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and the rights of the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer with respect thereto under the related Non-Serviced PSA. The Master Servicer (or, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer) shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standards to enforce the rights of the Trustee (as holder of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and Non-Serviced PSA.

(m)             The parties hereto acknowledge that each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and further acknowledge that, pursuant to the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement, (i) the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is to be serviced and administered by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA, and (ii) in the event that (A) the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan is no longer part of the trust fund created by the related Non-Serviced PSA and (B) the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust Fund, then, as set forth in the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement, the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall continue to be serviced in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA, until such time as a new servicing agreement has been agreed to by the parties to the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the provisions of such agreement and confirmation has been obtained from the Rating Agencies that such new servicing agreement would not result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of then-current ratings of any Class of Certificates then outstanding.

(n)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s authority with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan are limited by, and subject to, the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement. The Master Servicer (or, if a Serviced Whole Loan becomes a Specially

  -165-  

 

Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer) shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to obtain the benefits of the rights of the Trust (as holder of the related Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(o)               In connection with the securitization of any Serviced Companion Loan (in each case, only while it is a Serviced Companion Loan), upon the request of (and at the expense of) a related Serviced Companion Noteholder (or its designee), each of the Master Servicer (if such Serviced Companion Loan is not a Specially Serviced Loan), the Special Servicer (if such Serviced Companion Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan) and the Trustee, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Serviced Companion Noteholder in attempting to cause the related Mortgagor to provide information relating to the related Whole Loan, and that such Serviced Companion Noteholder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, for inclusion in any disclosure document(s) relating to such Other Securitization.

(p)               For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee have any obligation or authority to (a) supervise any related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer, Non-Serviced Certificate Administrator or Non-Serviced Trustee or (b) make Servicing Advances with respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The obligation of the Master Servicer to provide information and collections and make P&I Advances to the Certificate Administrator for the benefit of the Certificateholders with respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is dependent on its receipt of the corresponding information and/or collections from the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Special Servicer.

(q)               Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit the ability of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to lend money to (to the extent not secured, in whole or in part, by any Mortgaged Property), accept deposits from or otherwise generally engage in any kind of business or dealings with any Mortgagor as though the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer was not a party to this Agreement or to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that this sentence shall not be construed to modify or supersede the Servicing Standard.

(r)                If a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan would become a Specially Serviced Loan because of an event described in clause (i) of the definition of “Servicing Transfer Event” and the related Mortgagor has provided prior to the related Maturity Date a Refinancing/P&S Document, the Directing Certificateholder shall be entitled to consult on a strictly non-binding basis with the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer regarding whether or not such Refinancing/P&S Document is satisfactory in form and substance and from an acceptable lender or purchaser; provided that the event the Master Servicer and Special Servicer shall not be required to consult with the Directing Certificateholder for more than five (5) Business Days following delivery by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, respectively, of a request to consult with the Directing Certificateholder.

Section 3.02        Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments. (a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and the Serviced Companion Loans it is obligated to service hereunder, and shall follow such collection procedures as are consistent with this Agreement (including, without limitation,

  -166-  

 

the Servicing Standard); provided that with respect to each Mortgage Loan that has an Anticipated Repayment Date, for so long as the related Mortgagor is in compliance with each provision of the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be permitted to take any enforcement action with respect to the failure of the related Mortgagor to make any payment of Excess Interest to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents; provided, further, that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take action to enforce the Trust’s right to apply excess cash flow to principal in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan documents. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may in its discretion waive any Penalty Charge in connection with any delinquent payment on a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan that it is obligated to service hereunder three (3) times during any period of twenty-four (24) consecutive months with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may in its discretion waive any Penalty Charge in connection with any delinquent payment on a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan one additional time in such 24-month period so long as with respect to any of the foregoing waivers, no Advance or additional expense of the Trust has been incurred and remains unreimbursed to the Trust with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan. Any additional waivers during such 24-month period with respect to such Mortgage Loan may be made, subject to the Servicing Standard, only after the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, given notice of a proposed waiver to the Directing Certificateholder and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder has consented to such additional waiver (provided that if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, fails to receive a response to such notice from the Directing Certificateholder in writing within five (5) days of giving such notice, then the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed to have consented to such proposed waiver); provided, further, that after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may waive any Penalty Charge in accordance with the Servicing Standard without the consent of the Directing Certificateholder; provided, further, that the Directing Certificateholder shall have no consent or consultation rights with respect to the foregoing waivers in relation to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class. For the avoidance of doubt, but subject to the fourth paragraph of Section 3.11(a) the right to waive any Penalty Charge shall be provided to both the Master Servicer and Special Servicer.

(b)               (i) All amounts collected by or on behalf of the Trust in respect of a Mortgage Loan shall be applied to amounts due and owing under the Mortgage Loan documents (including for principal and accrued and unpaid interest) in accordance with the express provisions of the Mortgage Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement); provided, however, that absent express provisions in the related Mortgage Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) or to the extent otherwise agreed to by the related Mortgagor in connection with a workout of a Mortgage Loan, all amounts collected by or on behalf of the Trust in respect of a Mortgage Loan in the form of payments from the related Mortgagor, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds under the Mortgage Loan (in the case of each Serviced Whole Loan, exclusive of amounts payable to any applicable Companion Loan pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement) shall be applied in the following order of priority:

fourth, to the extent not previously so allocated pursuant to clause first or second above, as a recovery of principal of such Mortgage Loan then due and owing, including by reason of acceleration of such Mortgage Loan following a default thereunder (or, if the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated, as a recovery of principal to the extent of its entire remaining unpaid principal balance);

thirteenth, in the case of an ARD Loan after the related Anticipated Repayment Date, any accrued but unpaid Excess Interest;

provided that to the extent required under the REMIC Provisions, payments or proceeds received (or receivable by exercise of the lender’s rights under the related Mortgage Loan documents) with respect to any partial release of a Mortgaged Property (including in connection with a condemnation) at a time when the loan to value ratio of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, exceeds 125%, or would exceed 125% following any partial release (based solely on the value of real property and excluding personal property and going concern value, if any, unless otherwise permitted under the applicable REMIC Provisions as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee) must be collected and allocated to reduce the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan in the manner required by the REMIC Provisions; provided, further, that if a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Non-Serviced Companion Loan comprising a Non-Serviced Whole Loan become REO Loans, the treatment of the foregoing amounts with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be subject to the terms of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and Non-Serviced PSA, in that order; provided, further, that with respect to each Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan, amounts collected with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan shall be allocated first pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and then, any amounts allocated to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan shall be subject to application as described above.

(ii)                             Collections by or on behalf of the Trust in respect of any REO Property (exclusive of the amounts to be allocated to the payment of the costs of operating, managing, leasing, maintaining and disposing of such REO Property and, if applicable, in the case of each Serviced Whole Loan, exclusive of any amounts payable to the holder of the related Companion Loan(s), as applicable, pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement) shall be applied in the following order of priority:

first, as a recovery of any unreimbursed Advances (including any Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount) with respect to the related Mortgage Loan and interest at the Reimbursement Rate on all Advances and, if applicable, unreimbursed and unpaid additional trust fund expenses (including Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees and Workout Fees previously paid by the Trust from general collections) with respect to the related Mortgage Loan;

second, as a recovery of Nonrecoverable Advances and any interest on those Nonrecoverable Advances at the Reimbursement Rate, to the extent previously paid or reimbursed from principal collections on the Mortgage Loans (as described in the first proviso in the definition of Principal Distribution Amount);

third, to the extent not previously so allocated pursuant to clause first or second above, as a recovery of accrued and unpaid interest on such Mortgage Loan to the extent of the excess of (i) accrued and unpaid interest (exclusive of default interest and Excess Interest) on such Mortgage Loan at the related Mortgage Rate in effect from time to time through the end of the applicable mortgage interest accrual period, over (ii) after taking into account any allocations pursuant to clause fifth below or clause fifth of the prior paragraph on earlier dates, the aggregate portion of the accrued and unpaid interest described in sub-clause (i) of this clause third that either (A)(x) was not advanced because of the reductions (if any) in the amount of related P&I Advances for such Mortgage Loan that have occurred in connection with related Appraisal Reduction Amounts or (y) with respect to any accrued and unpaid interest that was not advanced due to a determination that the related P&I Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, the amount of interest that (absent such determination of nonrecoverability preventing such P&I Advance from being made) would not have been advanced because of the reductions in the amount of related P&I Advances for such Mortgage Loan that would have occurred in connection with related Appraisal Reduction Amounts, or (B) accrued at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the portion of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan equal to any related Collateral Deficiency Amount in effect from time to time and as to which no P&I Advance was made;

provided that if a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Non-Serviced Companion Loan comprising a Non-Serviced Whole Loan becomes an REO Loan, the treatment of the foregoing amounts with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be subject to the terms of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and Non-Serviced PSA, in that order; provided, further, that with respect to each Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan, amounts collected with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan shall be allocated first pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and then, any amounts allocated to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan shall be subject to application as described above.

(iii)                          Notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) above, such provisions shall not be deemed to affect the priority of distributions of payments pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. To the extent that such amounts are paid by a party other than a Mortgagor, such amounts shall be deemed to have been paid in respect of a purchase of all or part of the Mortgaged Property (in the case of Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds) and then paid by the Mortgagor under the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, or in accordance with Section 3.02(b)(ii) above.

(c)               To the extent consistent with the terms of the Mortgage Loans (and, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, and the related Intercreditor Agreement) and applicable law, the Master Servicer shall apply all Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds it receives on a day other than the Due Date to amounts due and owing under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan as if such Insurance and

(d)               In the event that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer receives Excess Interest prior to the Determination Date for any Collection Period, or receives notice from the related Mortgagor that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer will be receiving Excess Interest prior to the Determination Date for any Collection Period, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall notify the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator two (2) Business Days prior to the related Distribution Date. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee shall be responsible for any failure of the related Mortgagor to pay any Excess Interest or prepayment penalty. The preceding statements shall not, however, be construed to limit the provisions of Section 3.02(a).

(f)                Promptly following the Closing Date, in the case of any Non-Serviced Whole Loan and, with respect to the Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, promptly following receipt of notice in connection with the Servicing Shift Securitization Date, the Certificate Administrator shall send written notice (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit T) to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer (with a copy to any other applicable party set forth on the schedule of addresses to Exhibit T) stating that, as of such date, the Trustee is the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and directing such Non-Serviced Master Servicer to remit to the Master Servicer all amounts payable to, and to forward, deliver or otherwise make available, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer all reports, statements, documents, communications and other information that are to be forwarded, delivered or otherwise made available to, the holder of such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan under the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and the related Non-Serviced PSA. The Master Servicer shall, within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds, deposit into the Collection Account all amounts received with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property or any related REO Property.

Section 3.03        Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts. (a) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”), into which all Escrow Payments received by it shall be deposited and retained, and shall administer such Servicing Accounts in accordance with the related Mortgage

  -172-  

 

Loan documents and, if applicable, the Companion Loan documents. Any Servicing Account related to a Serviced Whole Loan shall be held for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Noteholders collectively, but this shall not be construed to modify the respective interests of any noteholder therein as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. Amounts on deposit in Servicing Accounts may only be invested in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and Companion Loan documents, or in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.06. Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts to the extent permitted by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents. Withdrawals of amounts so deposited from a Servicing Account may be made only to: (i) effect payment of items for which Escrow Payments were collected and comparable items; (ii) reimburse the Trustee and then the Master Servicer, if applicable, for any Servicing Advances; (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account, if required by applicable law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan and as described below or, if not so required, to the Master Servicer; (v) after the occurrence of an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, apply amounts to the indebtedness under the applicable Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan; (vi) withdraw amounts deposited in error; (vii) pay Penalty Charges to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents; or (viii) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01. As part of its servicing duties, the Master Servicer shall pay or cause to be paid to the related Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing Accounts, to the extent required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall the Master Servicer be required to remit to any Mortgagor any amounts in excess of actual net investment income or funds in the related Servicing Account. If allowed by the related Mortgage Loan documents and applicable law, the Master Servicer may charge the related Mortgagor an administrative fee for maintenance of the Servicing Accounts.

(b)               The Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans (other than any REO Loan succeeding a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other related Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each related Serviced Companion Loan, shall maintain accurate records with respect to each related Mortgaged Property reflecting the status of real estate taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may become a lien thereon and the status of insurance premiums and any ground rents payable in respect thereof. The Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans (other than any REO Loan succeeding a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other related Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each related Serviced Companion Loan, shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such items (including renewal premiums) and shall effect payment thereof from the REO Account or by the Master Servicer as Servicing Advances prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and, in any event, prior to the institution of foreclosure or similar proceedings with respect to the related Mortgaged Property for nonpayment of such items, employing for such purpose Escrow Payments (which shall be so applied by the Master Servicer at the written direction of the Special Servicer in the case of REO Loans) as allowed under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and Companion Loan. Other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall service and administer any reserve accounts (including monitoring, maintaining or changing the amounts of required escrows) in accordance with the terms of such Mortgage Loan and the related

  -173-  

 

Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, and the Servicing Standard. To the extent that a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Companion Loan, as applicable, does not require a Mortgagor to escrow for the payment of real estate taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, ground rents (if applicable) and similar items, the Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans, and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other such Mortgage Loans or Companion Loan, as applicable, that it is responsible for servicing hereunder, shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to comply with its obligation to make payments in respect of such items at the time they first become due and, in any event, prior to the institution of foreclosure or similar proceedings with respect to the related Mortgaged Property for nonpayment of such items.

(c)               In accordance with the Servicing Standard and for each Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and each Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, the Master Servicer shall advance all such funds as are necessary for the purpose of effecting the payment of (i) real estate taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may become a lien thereon, (ii) ground rents (if applicable) and (iii) premiums on Insurance Policies, in each instance if and to the extent Escrow Payments collected from the related Mortgagor (or related REO Revenues, if applicable) are insufficient to pay such item when due and the related Mortgagor has failed to pay such item on a timely basis, and provided, however, that the particular advance would not, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance and provided, further, however, that with respect to the payment of taxes and assessments, the Master Servicer shall not be required to make such advance until the later of (i) five (5) Business Days after the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, has received confirmation that such item has not been paid and (ii) the date prior to the date after which any penalty or interest would accrue in respect of such taxes or assessments. The Special Servicer shall give the Master Servicer and the Trustee no less than five (5) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice before the date on which the Master Servicer is requested to make any Servicing Advance with respect to a given Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property; provided, however, that only two (2) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice shall be required in respect of Servicing Advances required to be made on an emergency or urgent basis provided, further, that the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request (other than for Servicing Advances required to be made on an urgent or emergency basis) more frequently than once per calendar month (although such request may relate to more than one Servicing Advance). The Master Servicer may pay the aggregate amount of such Servicing Advances listed on a monthly request to the Special Servicer, in which case the Special Servicer shall remit such Servicing Advances to the ultimate payees. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Servicing Advances or recoverability determination with respect to any Servicing Advance; provided that in an urgent or emergency situation requiring the making of a Servicing Advance, the Special Servicer may make a Servicing Advance in its sole discretion. Within five (5) Business Days of making such a Servicing Advance, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer a request for reimbursement for such Servicing Advance, along with all information and documentation in the Special Servicer’s possession regarding the subject Servicing Advance as the Master Servicer may reasonably request, and the Master Servicer shall be obligated, out of the Master Servicer’s own funds, to reimburse the Special Servicer for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances (other than Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances) made by the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Such reimbursement and any accompanying

  -174-  

 

payment of interest shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the written request therefor pursuant to the preceding sentence by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Special Servicer. Upon the Master Servicer’s reimbursement to the Special Servicer of any Servicing Advance and payment to the Special Servicer of interest thereon, all in accordance with this Section 3.03, the Master Servicer shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have made such Servicing Advance at the same time as the Special Servicer actually made such Servicing Advance, and accordingly, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such Servicing Advance, together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, at the same time, in the same manner and to the same extent as the Master Servicer would otherwise have been entitled if it had actually made such Servicing Advance at the time the Special Servicer did. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.03(c), the Master Servicer shall not be required to reimburse the Special Servicer out of its own funds for, or to make at the direction of the Special Servicer, any Servicing Advance if the Master Servicer determines in its reasonable judgment that such Servicing Advance, although not characterized by the Special Servicer as a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, is in fact a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer in writing of such determination and, if applicable, such Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance shall instead be reimbursed to the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05 of this Agreement.

Any request by the Special Servicer that the Master Servicer make a Servicing Advance shall be deemed to be a determination by the Special Servicer that such requested Servicing Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, and the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such determination, provided that the determination shall not be binding on the Master Servicer or Trustee. On the first Business Day after the Determination Date for the related Distribution Date, the Special Servicer shall report to the Master Servicer if the Special Servicer determines any Servicing Advance previously made by the Master Servicer with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such a determination, and such determination shall be binding upon the Master Servicer, and shall in no way limit the ability of the Master Servicer in the absence of such determination to make its own determination that any Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion of, and not all of, any previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee determines that a proposed Servicing Advance with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, if made, or any outstanding Servicing Advance with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall provide the applicable Other Servicer written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days of the date of such determination. Any such determination by the Special Servicer that such Servicing Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance shall be binding on the Master Servicer and the Trustee. All such Advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors and further as provided in Section 3.05(a). No costs incurred by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in effecting the payment of real estate taxes, assessments and, if applicable, ground rents on or in respect of the Mortgaged Properties shall, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation, the Certificate Administrator’s calculation of monthly distributions to

  -175-  

 

Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balances of the related Mortgage Loans, any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans, related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable, so permit. If the Master Servicer fails to make any required Servicing Advance as and when due (including any applicable cure periods), to the extent the Trustee has actual knowledge of such failure, the Trustee shall make such Servicing Advance pursuant to Section 7.05. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Servicing Advance shall be required hereunder if such Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. In addition, the Master Servicer shall consider Unliquidated Advances in respect of prior Servicing Advances for purposes of nonrecoverability determinations. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Servicing Advances or recoverability determinations with respect to any Servicing Advances under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.03(c), the Master Servicer may in its good faith judgment elect (but shall not be required unless directed by the Special Servicer with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and REO Loans) to make a payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by a Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) (which shall be deemed first made from amounts distributable as principal and then from all other amounts comprising general collections) to pay for certain expenses set forth below notwithstanding that the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer, as the case may be) has determined that a Servicing Advance with respect to such expenditure would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance (unless, with respect to Specially Serviced Loans or REO Loans, the Special Servicer has notified the Master Servicer to not make such expenditure), where making such expenditure would prevent (i) the related Mortgaged Property from being uninsured or being sold at a tax sale or (ii) any event that would cause a loss of the priority of the lien of the related Mortgage, or the loss of any security for the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan; provided that in each instance, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee) that making such expenditure is in the best interest of the Certificateholders (and, if applicable, the Companion Holders), all as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu nature of any Companion Loans). The Master Servicer or the Trustee may elect to obtain reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances from the Trust pursuant to the terms of Section 3.17(c). The parties acknowledge that pursuant to the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer is obligated to make servicing advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for nonrecoverable servicing advances with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan (with, in each case, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon provided for under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA) in the manner set forth in the applicable Non-Serviced PSA and the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement.

(d)               In connection with its recovery of any Servicing Advance out of the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by the Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) pursuant to Section 3.05(a), the Trustee, the Special Servicer and then the Master Servicer, as the case may be and in that order, shall be entitled to receive, out of any amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of such Servicing Advance from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Subject to Section 3.17(c),

  -176-  

 

the Master Servicer shall reimburse itself, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, for any outstanding Servicing Advance as soon as practically possible after funds available for such purpose are deposited in the applicable Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by the Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) subject to the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s options and rights to defer recovery of such amounts as provided herein; provided, however, that the Master Servicer’s or Trustee’s options and rights to defer recovery of such amounts shall not alter the Master Servicer’s obligation to reimburse the Special Servicer for any outstanding Servicing Advance as provided for in this sentence. To the extent amounts on deposit in the Companion Distribution Account with respect to the related Companion Loan are insufficient for any such reimbursement, the Master Servicer shall use efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to enforce the rights of the holder of the related Mortgage Loan under the related Intercreditor Agreement to obtain any reimbursement available from the holder of the related Companion Loan.

(e)               To the extent an operations and maintenance plan is required to be established and executed pursuant to the terms of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall request from the Mortgagor written confirmation thereof within a reasonable time after the later of the Closing Date and the date as of which plan is required to be established or completed. To the extent any repairs, capital improvements, actions or remediations are required to have been taken or completed pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall request from the Mortgagor written confirmation of such actions and remediations within a reasonable time after the later of the Closing Date and the date as of which action or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed. To the extent a Mortgagor shall fail to promptly respond to any inquiry described in this Section 3.03(e), the Master Servicer shall report any such failure to the Special Servicer within a reasonable time after the date as of which actions or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed.

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, actual payments from Mortgagors in the nature of Escrow Payments, charges for beneficiary statements or demands, assumption fees, modification fees, extension fees, defeasance fees, amounts collected for Mortgagor checks returned for insufficient funds or other amounts the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer would be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection Account.

Assumption, extension and modification fees actually received from Mortgagors on Specially Serviced Loans shall be promptly delivered to the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

None of the Trust, the Depositor, the Mortgagors, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be liable for any loss incurred on such Permitted Investments.

  -181-  

 

An amount equal to all income and gain realized from any such investment shall be paid to the Certificate Administrator as additional compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal at any time from time to time. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments shall be for the account of the Certificate Administrator which shall deposit the amount of such loss (to the extent not offset by income from other investments) in the Distribution Accounts, as the case may be, out of its own funds immediately as realized. If the Certificate Administrator deposits in or transfers to the Distribution Accounts, as the case may be, any amount not required to be deposited therein or transferred thereto, it may at any time withdraw such amount or retransfer such amount from the Distribution Accounts, as the case may be, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deposit $150,000 with the Certificate Administrator, to be credited to the Legal Fee Reserve Account.

The Depositor will be the beneficial owner of the Legal Fee Reserve Account for all federal income tax purposes, and shall be taxable on all income earned therefrom.

Upon the depletion of the Legal Fee Reserve Account, or if there are insufficient funds to pay any invoice, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Depositor, and thereafter the Depositor shall pay any additional legal invoices from its own funds and the Certificate Administrator shall have no responsibility in connection therewith.

The Certificate Administrator shall have no responsibility for verifying the accuracy, reasonableness, or appropriateness of any invoice received. On the final Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall pay to the Depositor any funds then remaining in the Legal Fee Reserve Account in accordance with directions provided by the Depositor.

As of the Closing Date, the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account and the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account shall be located at the offices of the Certificate Administrator. The Certificate Administrator shall give notice to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Depositor of the proposed location of the Interest Reserve Account, the Excess Interest Distribution Account, the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, and, if established, the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account prior to any change thereof.

(c)               Prior to any Determination Date for the first Collection Period during which Excess Interest is received on any Mortgage Loan, and upon notification from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.02(d), the Certificate Administrator, on behalf of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain the Excess Interest Distribution Account in its own name on behalf of the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Excess Interest Certificates, which shall be an asset of the Grantor Trust, but shall not be an asset of any Trust REMIC. The Excess Interest Distribution Account shall be established and maintained as an Eligible Account (or as a subaccount of an Eligible Account). Prior to the applicable Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall remit to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Excess Interest Distribution Account an amount equal to the Excess Interest received by the Master Servicer prior to the Determination Date for the applicable Collection Period.

(d)               Following the distribution of the applicable portions of Excess Interest to Holders of the Excess Interest Certificates, on the first Distribution Date after which there are no longer any Mortgage Loans outstanding which pursuant to their terms could pay Excess Interest, the Certificate Administrator shall terminate the Excess Interest Distribution Account.

(e)               The Certificate Administrator shall establish (upon notice from the Special Servicer of an event occurring that generates Gain-on-Sale Proceeds) and maintain the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall be maintained as an Eligible Account (or as a subaccount of an Eligible Account), separate and apart from trust funds for mortgage pass-through certificates of other series administered by the Certificate Administrator.

Upon the disposition of any REO Property, in accordance with Section 3.09 or Section 3.16, the Special Servicer will calculate the Gain-on-Sale Proceeds, if any, realized that are allocable to the Mortgage Loan and any gain that is allocable to any related Serviced Companion Loan in connection with such sale and remit such funds to the Master Servicer on the later of (x) the date that is on or prior to each Determination Date or (y) two (2) Business Days after such amounts are received and properly identified, along with a notation of the amount of Gain-on-Sale Proceeds in the CREFC^® REO Liquidation Report. On the related Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall remit such funds that are allocable to the Mortgage Loan to the Certificate Administrator, who shall deposit such funds into the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account.

The applicable Mortgage Loan Seller will be the beneficial owner of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund for all federal income tax purposes, and shall be taxable on all income earned thereon.

(f)                Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Mortgage Loan, (i) if amounts on deposit in the Collection Account and the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account are not sufficient to pay the full amount of the Servicing Fee listed in Section 3.05(a)(ii), the Operating Advisor Fee listed in Section 3.05(a)(ii) and the Certificate Administrator Fee listed in Section 3.05(b)(iii), then the Certificate Administrator Fee shall be paid in full prior to the payment of any Servicing Fees payable under Section 3.05(a)(ii) and then, after payment of Servicing Fees, the Operating Advisor Fees payable under Section 3.05(a)(ii) and in the event that amounts on deposit in the Collection Account and the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account are not sufficient to pay the full amount of such Certificate Administrator Fee, the Certificate Administrator shall be paid based on the amount of such fees and (ii) if amounts on deposit in the Collection Account are not sufficient to reimburse the full amount of Advances and interest thereon listed in Sections 3.05(a)(ii), 3.05(a)(iii), 3.05(a)(iv), 3.05(a)(v), and 3.05(a)(vi) then reimbursements shall be paid first to the Certificate Administrator and to the Trustee, pro rata, second to the Special Servicer, third to the Master Servicer and then to the Operating Advisor.

(g)               If any Loss of Value Payments are deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund with respect to any Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced REO Property, then the Special Servicer shall promptly upon written direction from the Master Servicer (provided that, (1) with respect to clause (iv) below, the Special Servicer shall have provided notice to the Master Servicer of the occurrence of such Liquidation Event and (2) with respect to clause (v) below, the Certificate Administrator shall have provided the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with five (5) Business Days’ prior notice of such final Distribution Date) transfer such Loss of Value Payments

(up to the remaining portion thereof) from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account for the following purposes:

(i)                                 to reimburse the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, in accordance with Section 3.05(a) of this Agreement, for any Nonrecoverable Advance made by such party with respect to such Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced REO Property (together with any interest on such Advances);

(ii)                              to pay, in accordance with Section 3.05(a) of this Agreement, or to reimburse the Trust for the prior payment of, any expense or Liquidation Fee relating to such Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced REO Property that constitutes or, if not paid out of such Loss of Value Payments, would constitute an additional expense of the Trust;

(iii)                           to offset any portion of Realized Losses that are attributable to such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, as the case may be (as calculated without regard to the application of such Loss of Value Payments), incurred with respect to such Mortgage Loan or any related successor REO Loan;

(iv)                          following the occurrence of a Liquidation Event with respect to such Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced REO Property and any related transfers from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund with respect to the items contemplated by the immediately preceding clauses (i)-(iii) as to such Mortgage Loan, to cover the items contemplated by the immediately preceding clauses (i)-(iii) in respect of any other Mortgage Loan or Serviced REO Loan; and

(v)                            On the final Distribution Date after all distributions have been made as set forth in clause (i) through (iv) above, to each Mortgage Loan Seller, its pro rata share, based on the amount that it contributed, net of any amount contributed by such Mortgage Loan Seller that was used pursuant to clauses (i)-(iii) to offset any portion of Realized Losses that are attributable to such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, as the case may be, additional trust fund expenses or any Nonrecoverable Advances incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan related to such contribution.

(h)               Any Loss of Value Payments transferred to the Collection Account pursuant to clauses (i)-(iii) of the prior paragraph shall be treated as Liquidation Proceeds received by the Trust in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or any successor REO Loan with respect thereto for which such Loss of Value Payments were received; and any Loss of Value Payments transferred to the Collection Account pursuant to clause (iv) of the prior paragraph shall be treated as Liquidation Proceeds received by the Trust in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan for which such Loss of Value Payments are being transferred to the Collection Account to cover an item contemplated by clauses (i)-(iv) of the prior paragraph.

(i)                 The Companion Paying Agent may, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Companion Distribution Account to make distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(k).

Section 3.06        Investment of Funds in the Collection Account, REO Account and Loss of Value Reserve Fund. (a) The Master Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, or any Servicing

  -194-  

 

Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer (for purposes of this Section 3.06, an “Investment Account”), the Special Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining its REO Account and Loss of Value Reserve Fund (also for purposes of this Section 3.06, an “Investment Account”) to invest or if it is such depository institution, may itself invest, the funds held therein, only in one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the next succeeding date on which funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if a Person other than the depository institution maintaining such account is the obligor thereon and (ii) no later than the date on which funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the depository institution maintaining such account is the obligor thereon. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any funds held in an Investment Account shall be held in the name of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, on behalf of the Trustee (in its capacity as such) for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the REO Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) on behalf of the Trustee, shall maintain continuous physical possession of any Permitted Investment of amounts in Collection Account, such Companion Distribution Account, such Servicing Accounts, such Loss of Value Reserve Fund or such REO Account, as applicable, that is either (i) a “certificated security,” as such term is defined in the UCC (such that the Trustee shall have control pursuant to Section 8-106 of the UCC) or (ii) other property in which a secured party may perfect its security interest by physical possession under the UCC or any other applicable law. In the case of any Permitted Investment held in the form of a “security entitlement” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall take or cause to be taken such action as the Trustee deems reasonably necessary to cause the Trustee to have control over such security entitlement. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer) or the Special Servicer (in the case of the REO Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) shall:

(i)                                consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) all amounts then payable thereunder and (b) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and

(ii)                            demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment Account.

(b)               Interest and investment income realized on funds deposited in the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the

  -195-  

 

P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Master Servicer to the extent (with respect to Servicing Accounts) not required to be paid to the related Mortgagor and shall be subject to its withdrawal, or withdrawal at its direction, in accordance with Section 3.03 or Section 3.05(a), as the case may be. Interest and investment income realized on funds deposited in the REO Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer, to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for each period from and including any Distribution Date to and including the immediately succeeding P&I Advance Date, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Special Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.14(c). In the event that any loss shall be incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment (as to which the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, would have been entitled to any Net Investment Earnings hereunder) directed to be made by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and on deposit in any of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Servicing Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or the REO Account, the Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the REO Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) shall deposit therein, no later than the P&I Advance Date, without right of reimbursement, the amount of Net Investment Loss, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date; provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall deposit any loss on an investment of funds in an Investment Account if such loss is incurred solely as a result of the insolvency of the federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company that holds such Investment Account, so long as such depository institution or trust company satisfied the qualifications set forth in the definition of Eligible Account at the time such investment was made (and such federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company is not an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, unless such depository institution or trust company satisfied the qualification set forth in the definition of Eligible Account both (x) at the time the investment was made and (y) thirty (30) days prior to such insolvency).

(c)               Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Master Servicer may and, upon the request of Holders of Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights allocated to any Class shall, take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

Section 3.07        Maintenance of Insurance Policies; Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. (a) The Master Servicer (with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) shall use its efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to maintain (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Properties) shall maintain, to the extent required by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents, all insurance coverage as is required under the related Mortgage Loan documents except to the extent that the failure of the related Mortgagor to do so is an Acceptable Insurance Default (and except as provided in the next

  -196-  

 

sentence with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be). If the Mortgagor does not so maintain such insurance coverage, subject to its recoverability determination with respect to any required Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) shall maintain all insurance coverage as is required under the related Mortgage, but only in the event the Trustee has an insurable interest therein and such insurance is available to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and, if available, can be obtained at commercially reasonable rates, as determined (provided that any determination that such insurance coverage is not available or not available at commercially reasonable rates shall be made (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, after consultation with the Directing Certificateholder or, in each case, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, so long as no AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred and is continuing, with the consent of the holder of the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan). Such determination shall be made by the Master Servicer (with respect to the Serviced Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) except to the extent that the failure of the related Mortgagor to do so is an Acceptable Insurance Default as determined by the Master Servicer (with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan); provided, however, that if any Mortgage permits the holder thereof to dictate to the Mortgagor the insurance coverage to be maintained on such Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer or, with respect to REO Property, the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall impose or maintain, as applicable, such insurance requirements as are consistent with the Servicing Standard taking into account the insurance in place at the closing of the Mortgage Loan, provided that, with respect to the immediately preceding proviso, the Master Servicer shall be obligated to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to maintain (or to itself maintain) insurance against property damage resulting from terrorist or similar acts unless the Mortgagor’s failure is an Acceptable Insurance Default (as determined by the Master Servicer (with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan)) (i) unless a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder, (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and other than with respect to an Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder, after consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (or, in each case, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, the Special Servicer with the consent of the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder) and (iii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, the consent of the Directing Certificateholder, and only in the event the Trustee has an insurable interest therein and such insurance is available to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and, if available, can be obtained at commercially reasonable rates. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants (at the applicable servicer’s expense) in determining whether any insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates. Subject to Section 3.15(a) and the costs

  -197-  

 

of such insurance being reimbursed or paid to the Special Servicer as provided in the third-to-last sentence of this paragraph, the Special Servicer shall maintain for each REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) no less insurance coverage than was previously required of the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents unless the Special Servicer determines ((i) unless a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder, and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and other than with respect to an Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder, after consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (or, in each case, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, with the consent of the Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder)) that such insurance is not available at commercially reasonable rates or that the Trustee does not have an insurable interest, in which case the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination. All Insurance Policies maintained by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall (i) contain a “standard” mortgagee clause, with loss payable to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), including any related Serviced Companion Loan, other than REO Properties) or to the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO Properties), (ii) be in the name of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO Properties), (iii) include coverage in an amount not less than the lesser of (x) the full replacement cost of the improvements securing Mortgaged Property or the REO Property, as applicable, and (y) the outstanding principal balance owing on the related Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) or REO Loan, as applicable, and in any event, the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions, (iv) include a replacement cost endorsement providing no deduction for depreciation (unless such endorsement is not permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents), (v) be noncancelable without thirty (30) days prior written notice to the insured party (except in the case of nonpayment, in which case such policy shall not be cancelled without ten (10) days’ prior notice) and (vi) subject to the first proviso in the second sentence of this Section 3.07(a), be issued by a Qualified Insurer authorized under applicable law to issue such Insurance Policies. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under any such Insurance Policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property or amounts to be released to the related Mortgagor, in each case in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the provisions of the related Mortgage Loan documents) shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05(a). Any costs incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such Insurance Policies in respect of Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) (other than REO Properties and other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (i) if the Mortgagor defaults on its obligation to do so, shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance (so long as such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance and if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance then such cost shall instead be paid out of the Collection Account) and will be charged to the related Mortgagor and (ii) shall not, for purposes of calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion Loan (if any), notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan so permit. Any cost incurred by the Special Servicer in maintaining any such Insurance Policies with respect

  -198-  

 

to REO Properties shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c) or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance (so long as such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance and if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance then such cost shall instead be paid out of the Collection Account). The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07 shall apply to any Serviced Whole Loan as if it were a single “Mortgage Loan”. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not be required to maintain, and will not be in default for failing to obtain, any earthquake or environmental insurance on any Mortgaged Property unless such insurance was required at the time of origination of the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and is currently available at commercially reasonable rates.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that either (x) require the Mortgagor to maintain “all risk” property insurance (and do not expressly permit an exclusion for terrorism) or (y) contain provisions generally requiring the applicable Mortgagor to maintain insurance in types and against such risks as the holder of such Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) reasonably requires from time to time in order to protect its interests, the Master Servicer shall, consistent with the Servicing Standard, (A) monitor in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether the insurance policies for the related Mortgaged Property contain Additional Exclusions; provided that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon certificates of insurance in determining whether such policies contain Additional Exclusions, (B) request the Mortgagor to either purchase insurance against the risks specified in the Additional Exclusions or provide an explanation as to its reasons for failing to purchase such insurance and (C) if the related Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan, notify the Special Servicer if it has knowledge that any insurance policy contains Additional Exclusions or if it has knowledge (such knowledge to be based upon the Master Servicer’s compliance with the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B) above) that any Mortgagor fails to purchase the insurance requested to be purchased by the Master Servicer pursuant to clause (B) above. If the Master Servicer (with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan) determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such failure is not an Acceptable Insurance Default, the Special Servicer (with respect to such determination made by the Special Servicer) shall notify the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause such insurance to be maintained. The Master Servicer (at its own expense) and the Special Servicer (at the expense of the Trust) shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants in making such determinations. The Master Servicer (at its own expense) and the Special Servicer (at the expense of the Trust) shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants in determining whether Additional Exclusions exist. Furthermore, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly deliver such conclusions in writing to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website for those Mortgage Loans that (i) have one of the ten (10) highest outstanding Stated Principal Balances of all of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust or (ii) comprise more than 5% of the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust. During the period that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is evaluating the availability of such insurance or waiting for a response from the Directing Certificateholder or the holder of any Companion Loan, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be liable for any loss related to its failure to require the Mortgagor to maintain (or its failure to maintain)

  -199-  

 

such insurance and will not be in default of its obligations as a result of such failure and the Master Servicer will not itself maintain such insurance or cause such insurance to be maintained.

(b)               (i) If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer insuring against fire and hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, but excluding any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), as the case may be, required to be serviced and administered hereunder, then, to the extent such Insurance Policy provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause fire and hazard insurance to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties or REO Properties. Such Insurance Policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, if there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a fire and hazard Insurance Policy complying with the requirements of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such Insurance Policy, promptly deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount of such loss or losses that would have been covered under the individual policy but are not covered under the blanket Insurance Policy because of such deductible clause to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan), or in the absence of such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with the Servicing Standard. In connection with its activities as administrator and Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans or any Serviced Companion Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee, Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy. The Special Servicer, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, may maintain, earthquake insurance on REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), provided coverage is available at commercially reasonable rates, the cost of which shall be a Servicing Advance.

(ii)                              If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by a master single interest or force-placed insurance policy with a Qualified Insurer naming the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee as the loss payee, then to the extent such Insurance Policy provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause such insurance to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties and REO Properties. In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by such master single interest or force-placed insurance policy, the incremental costs of such insurance applicable to such Mortgaged Property or REO Property (i.e., other than any minimum or standby premium payable for such policy whether or not any Mortgaged Property or REO Property is covered thereby) shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance. Such master single interest or force-placed policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy otherwise complying with the provisions of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would

  -200-  

 

have been covered by such policy had it been maintained, deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the master single or force-placed interest policy because of such deductible clause, to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan, including any related Serviced Companion Loan, or, in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with the Servicing Standard.

(c)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy with a Qualified Insurer covering losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer’s or employee’s misappropriation of funds or errors or omissions. Such amount of coverage shall be in such form and amount as are consistent with the Servicing Standard. Coverage of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under a policy or bond obtained by an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and providing the coverage required by this Section 3.07(c) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.07(c). The Special Servicer and the Master Servicer will promptly report in writing to the Trustee any material changes that may occur in their respective fidelity bonds, if any, and/or their respective errors and omissions insurance policies, as the case may be, and will furnish to the Trustee copies of all binders and policies or certificates evidencing that such bonds, if any, and insurance policies are in full force and effect.

(d)               At the time the Master Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that any Mortgaged Property (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) is in a federally designated special flood hazard area (and such flood insurance has been made available), the Master Servicer will use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor (in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the Mortgage Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan documents) to maintain, and, if the related Mortgagor shall default in its obligation to so maintain, shall itself maintain to the extent such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to the extent the Trustee, as mortgagee, has an insurable interest therein), flood insurance in respect thereof, but only to the extent the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or related Serviced Companion Loan permits the mortgagee to require such coverage and the maintenance of such coverage is consistent with the Servicing Standard. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan (and any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable), and (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, plus such additional excess flood coverage with respect to the Mortgaged Property, if any, in an amount consistent with the Servicing Standard. If the cost of any insurance described above is not borne by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall promptly make a Servicing Advance for such costs.

(e)               During all such times as any REO Property (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) shall be located in a federally designated special flood hazard area, the Special Servicer will cause to be maintained, to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Special Servicer prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party)) (in accordance with the

  -201-  

 

Servicing Standard), a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration in an amount representing coverage not less than the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, amended, plus such additional excess flood coverage with respect to the Mortgaged Property, if any, in an amount consistent with the Servicing Standard. The cost of any such flood insurance with respect to an REO Property shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c) or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance.

(f)                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.07, so long as the long-term debt obligations or the deposit account or claims-paying ability of the Master Servicer (or its immediate or remote parent) or the Special Servicer (or its immediate or remote parent), as applicable, is rated at least “A3” by Moody’s or “A-” by Fitch (if rated by Fitch), the Master Servicer (or its public parent) or the Special Servicer (or its public parent), as applicable, shall be allowed to provide self-insurance with respect to any of its obligations under this Section 3.07.

(g)               Each of the Operating Advisor and Asset Representations Reviewer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement an “errors and omissions” insurance policy with a Qualified Insurer covering losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer’s or employee’s errors or omissions.

Section 3.08        Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements. (a) As to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-sale” clause, which by its terms:

(i)                                 provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the sale or other transfer of an interest in the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor; or

(ii)                              provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan may not be assumed without the consent of the mortgagee in connection with any such sale or other transfer;

then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Master Servicer (with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan as to which such matter does not involve a Major Decision) or the Special Servicer (with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan or any Non-Specially Serviced Loan as to which such matter involves a Major Decision), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall (a) exercise any right it may have with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon or (y) to withhold its consent to any sale or transfer, consistent with the Servicing Standard or (b) waive any right to exercise such rights, provided that if such matter is a Major Decision, (i) the Special Servicer (A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class has obtained the consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder to the extent required by, and pursuant to

  -202-  

 

the process described under Section 6.08(a), (B) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, a Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, and no Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) and (C) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) (provided that in the case of clause (A), clause (B) and clause (C) such consent shall be deemed given or such consultation shall be deemed to have occurred, as applicable, if a response to the request for consent or consultation, as the case may be, is not provided within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Special Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis and all information reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and reasonably available to the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent or conduct such consultation), and (ii) with respect to any Mortgage Loan (x) with a Stated Principal Balance greater than or equal to $20,000,000, (y) with a Stated Principal Balance greater than or equal to 5% of the aggregated Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then outstanding or (z) together with all other Mortgage Loans with which it is cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted or together with all other Mortgage Loans with the same Mortgagor (or an Affiliate thereof), that is one of the ten (10) largest Mortgage Loans outstanding (by Stated Principal Balance), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, prior to consenting to any action, shall obtain, a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), provided, however, that with respect to sub-clauses (y) and (z) of this sub-clause (ii), such Mortgage Loan shall also have a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000 for such Rating Agency Confirmation requirement to apply. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with any request for a Rating Agency Confirmation from a Rating Agency (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related rating agencies) pursuant to this Section 3.08(a), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall (if not already provided in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement) deliver a Review Package to the 17g-5 Information Provider (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related 17g-5 information provider) in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or related Serviced Companion Loan provides that such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan

  -203-  

 

may be assumed or transferred without the consent of the mortgagee, provided that certain conditions contained in the related Mortgage Loan documents are satisfied where no mortgagee discretion is necessary in order to determine if such conditions are satisfied, then for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Master Servicer (with respect to all Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to all Specially Serviced Loans), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall determine in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether such conditions have been satisfied.

(b)               As to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-encumbrance” clause that by its terms:

(i)                                 provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor; or

(ii)                              requires the consent of the mortgagee to the creation of any such additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor;

then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Master Servicer (with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan as to which such matter does not involve a Major Decision) or the Special Servicer (with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan or any Non-Specially Serviced Loan as to which such matter involves a Major Decision), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall (a) exercise any right it may have with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon or (y) to withhold its consent to the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance, consistent with the Servicing Standard or (b) waive its right to exercise such rights, provided that, if such matter is a Major Decision, (i) (A) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, no Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and the matter involves a Major Decision, the consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder shall have been obtained by the Special Servicer to the extent required by, and pursuant to the process described under, Section 6.08(a), and (B) if such Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, a Control Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, and no Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) and (C) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) (provided that in the case of clause (A), clause (B) and clause (C) such consent shall be deemed given or such consultation shall be deemed to have occurred, as applicable, if a response to the request for consent or consultation, as the case may be, is not provided within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Special Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis and all information reasonably requested by the Directing

  -204-  

 

Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and reasonably available to the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent or conduct such consultation), and (ii) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has obtained Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) if such Mortgage Loan (A) has an outstanding principal balance that is greater than or equal to 2% of the Stated Principal Balance of the outstanding Mortgage Loans or (B) has an LTV Ratio greater than 85% (including any existing and proposed debt) or (C) has a debt service coverage ratio less than 1.20x (in each case, determined based upon the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan and related Companion Loan, if any, and the principal amount of the proposed additional lien) or (D) is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans (by Stated Principal Balance) or (E) has a Stated Principal Balance greater than $20,000,000; provided, however, that with respect to sub-clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) of this sub-clause (ii), such Mortgage Loan shall also have a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000 for such Rating Agency Confirmation requirement to apply. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with any request for a Rating Agency Confirmation from a Rating Agency (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related rating agencies) pursuant to this Section 3.08(b), the Special Servicer shall (if not already provided in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement) deliver a Review Package to the 17g-5 Information Provider (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related 17g-5 information provider) in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement.

To the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Rating Agency Confirmation described in the immediately preceding paragraph or in Section 3.08(a) shall be an expense of the related Mortgagor; provided that if the Mortgage Loan documents are silent as to who bears the costs of obtaining any such Rating Agency Confirmation, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to make the related Mortgagor bear such costs and expenses. Unless determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance such costs not collected from the related Mortgagor shall be advanced as a Servicing Advance and otherwise shall be paid to the Special Servicer from general collections in the Collection Account.

If any Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan provides that such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan may be further encumbered without the consent of the mortgagee, provided that certain conditions contained in the related Mortgage Loan documents are satisfied where no mortgagee discretion is necessary in order to determine if such conditions are satisfied, then for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Master Servicer (with respect to all Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and

  -205-  

 

the Special Servicer (with respect to all Specially Serviced Loans), on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall determine whether such conditions have been satisfied.

After receiving a request for any matter described in Section 3.08(a) or this Section 3.08(b) that constitutes a consent or waiver with respect to a “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Specially Serviced Loan as to which such matter involves a Major Decision, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide the Special Servicer with written notice of any such request for such matter, and, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request, the Special Servicer shall process such request (including, without limitation, interfacing with the Mortgagor) and the Master Servicer shall have no further obligation with regard to such request or due-on-sale or due-on-encumbrance, except as provided in the next sentence. The Master Servicer shall continue to cooperate with the Special Servicer by delivering any additional information in the Master Servicer’s possession to the Special Servicer requested by the Special Servicer relating to such consent or waiver with respect to a “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause. If the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request, the Master Servicer will be required to provide the Special Servicer with the Master Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis, to the extent the Master Servicer is recommending approval, and all information in the Master Servicer’s possession that may be reasonably requested in order to grant or withhold such consent by the Special Servicer or the Directing Certificateholder or other person with consent or consultation rights; provided that in the event that the Special Servicer does not respond within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such written recommendation and analysis and all such reasonably requested information, plus the time period provided to the Directing Certificateholder or other relevant party under this Agreement and, if applicable, any additional time period provided to a Companion Holder under a related Intercreditor Agreement, the Special Servicer’s consent to such matter shall be deemed granted.

(c)               Nothing in this Section 3.08 shall constitute a waiver of the Trustee’s right, as the mortgagee of record, to receive notice of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan, any sale or other transfer of the related Mortgaged Property or the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance with respect to such Mortgaged Property.

(d)               Except as otherwise permitted by Section 3.08(a) and (b) and/or Section 3.18, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall agree to modify, waive or amend any term of any Mortgage Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, in connection with the taking of, or the failure to take, any action pursuant to this Section 3.08. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide copies of any final waivers (except with respect to provision of any such waivers to the 17g-5 Information Provider, exclusive of any Privileged Information) it effects pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or (b) to each other and to the 17g-5 Information Provider with respect to each Mortgage Loan, and shall notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, each other and, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the 17g-5 Information Provider (for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.25) and, with respect to a Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, of any assumption or substitution agreement executed pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or (b) and shall forward thereto a copy of such agreement.

(e)               [RESERVED].

(f)                For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer may waive its rights or grant its consent under any “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause other than in compliance with the provisions of Section 3.08(a) through (d) hereof. In the case of the Special Servicer, no such waiver or consent that constitutes a Major Decision shall be made without (x) (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, the consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder having been obtained if and to the extent required by, and pursuant to the process described under Section 6.08(a), (y) (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, after having consulted with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) or (z) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, consultation with the Operating Advisor pursuant to Section 6.08(a).

(g)               [RESERVED.]

(h)               Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.08, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, makes a determination under Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.08(b) that the applicable conditions in the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents, as applicable, with respect to assumptions or encumbrances permitted without the consent of the mortgagee have been satisfied, the applicable assumptions and transfers may be subject to an assumption or other fee, unless such fees are otherwise prohibited pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents; provided that any such fee not provided for in the Mortgage Loan documents does not constitute a “significant” change in yield pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1001-3(e)(2).

Section 3.09        Realization Upon Defaulted Loans and Companion Loans. (a) Upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan documents related to a Serviced Whole Loan or a Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide written notice to the related Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, with a copy of such notice to the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall, subject to subsections (b) through (d) of this Section 3.09, Section 3.24, subject to the Directing Certificateholders’ Operating Advisor’s respective rights pursuant to Section 6.08, and any Companion Holder or mezzanine lender’s rights under the related Intercreditor Agreement (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, on behalf of the holders of the beneficial interest of the related Companion Loan) or this Agreement, exercise reasonable efforts, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert (which may include an REO Acquisition) the ownership of property securing any such Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and related Companion Loan, if any, as come into and continue in default as to which no satisfactory arrangements (including by way of a discounted pay-off) can be made for collection of delinquent payments, and which are not released from the Trust Fund pursuant to any other provision hereof. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall not

  -207-  

 

be required to make a Servicing Advance and expend funds toward the restoration of such property unless the Special Servicer has determined in its reasonable discretion that such restoration will increase the net proceeds of liquidation of such Mortgaged Property to Certificateholders after reimbursement to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for such Servicing Advance, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has not determined that such Servicing Advance together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in any such proceedings shall be advanced by the Master Servicer; provided that, in each case, such cost or expense would not, if incurred, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. Nothing contained in this Section 3.09 shall be construed so as to require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, to make a bid on any Mortgaged Property at a foreclosure sale or similar proceeding that is in excess of the fair market value of such property, as determined by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in its reasonable judgment taking into account the factors described in Section 3.16(b) and the results of any Appraisal obtained pursuant to the following sentence, all such bids to be made in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard. If and when the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer deems it necessary and prudent for purposes of establishing the fair market value of any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan or any related defaulted Companion Loan, whether for purposes of bidding at foreclosure or otherwise, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, is authorized to have an Appraisal performed with respect to such property by an Independent MAI-designated appraiser the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance.

(b)               The Special Servicer shall not acquire any personal property pursuant to this Section 3.09 unless either:

(i)                                such personal property is incidental to real property (within the meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Special Servicer; or

(ii)                              the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Trust (to the extent not allocable to the related Companion Loan) will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.09 and Section 3.24, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee, obtain title to a Mortgaged Property in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or take any other action with respect to any Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and/or any related Companion Holder, would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of CERCLA or any comparable law, unless (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate to such effect delivered to the Trustee) the Special Servicer has previously determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard, based on an Environmental Assessment of such Mortgaged Property performed by an Independent Person who regularly conducts Environmental Assessments and performed within six (6) months prior to any such acquisition of title or other action, that:

  -208-  

 

(i)                                such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, after consultation with an environmental consultant, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Holders constituted a single lender, to take such actions as are necessary to bring such Mortgaged Property in compliance with such laws, and

(ii)                              there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any currently effective federal, state or local law or regulation, or that, if any such hazardous materials are present for which such action could be required, after consultation with an environmental consultant, it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Companion Holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Holders constituted a single lender, to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.

The cost of any such Environmental Assessment shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance and the cost of any remedial, corrective or other further action contemplated by clause (i) and/or clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance, unless it is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance (in which case it shall be an expense of the Trust and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, shall be withdrawn in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement by the Master Servicer from the Collection Account, including from the Companion Distribution Account (such withdrawal to be made from amounts on deposit therein that are otherwise payable on or allocable to such Serviced Whole Loan)); and if any such Environmental Assessment so warrants, the Special Servicer shall, except with respect to any Companion Loan and any Environmental Assessment ordered after such Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, perform such additional environmental testing at the expense of the Trust as it deems necessary and prudent to determine whether the conditions described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence have been satisfied. With respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, the Master Servicer and, with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, the Special Servicer (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall review and be familiar with the terms and conditions relating to enforcing claims and shall monitor the dates by which any claim or action must be taken (including delivering any notices to the insurer and using reasonable efforts to perform any actions required under such policy) under each environmental insurance policy in effect and obtained on behalf of the mortgagee to receive the maximum proceeds available under such policy for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests).

(d)               If (i) the environmental testing contemplated by subsection (c) above establishes that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of subsection (c) above of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan and, in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any related Companion Loan, and (ii) there has been no breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in or required to be made pursuant to Section 4 of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements for which the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller could be required to repurchase such Defaulted Loan pursuant

  -209-  

 

to Section 5 of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, then the Special Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust (other than proceeding to acquire title to the Mortgaged Property) and is hereby authorized, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder ((A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event (or with respect to any AB Mortgage Loan, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an AB Control Appraisal Period, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) and (B) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party) at such time as it deems appropriate to release such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, provided that, if such Mortgage Loan has a then-outstanding principal balance of greater than $1,000,000, then prior to the release of the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, (i) the Special Servicer shall have notified the Rating Agencies, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party), in writing of its intention to so release such Mortgaged Property and the bases for such intention, (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall have posted such notice of the Special Servicer’s intention to so release such Mortgaged Property to the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) and (iii) in addition to the prior written consent of the Directing Certificateholder as required above, the Holders of Certificates entitled to more than 50% of the Voting Rights shall have consented or have been deemed to have consented to such release within thirty (30) days of the Certificate Administrator’s posting such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website (failure to respond by the end of such 30-day period being deemed consent of the Holders of the Certificates). To the extent any fee charged by any Rating Agency in connection with rendering such written confirmation is not paid by the related Mortgagor, such fee is to be an expense of the Trust; provided that the Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such fee from the Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents.

(e)               The Special Servicer shall provide written reports and a copy of any Environmental Assessments in electronic format to the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party), the Master Servicer and the 17g-5 Information Provider monthly regarding any actions taken by the Special Servicer with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan, or defaulted Companion Loan as to which the environmental testing contemplated in subsection (c) above has revealed that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied, in each case until the earlier to occur of satisfaction of both such conditions, repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or release of the lien of the related Mortgage on such Mortgaged Property.

(f)                The Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer of any abandoned and/or foreclosed properties which require reporting to the IRS and shall provide the Master Servicer with all information regarding forgiveness of indebtedness and required to be reported with respect to any Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan that is abandoned or foreclosed and the Master Servicer shall report to the IRS and the related Mortgagor, in the manner required by applicable law, such information and the Master Servicer shall report, via IRS Form 1099A or IRS Form 1099C (or any successor form), all forgiveness of indebtedness and abandonment and foreclosure to the extent such information has been provided to the Master Servicer by the Special

  -210-  

 

Servicer. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such report to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator.

(g)               The Special Servicer shall have the right to determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the advisability of the maintenance of an action to obtain a deficiency judgment if the state in which the Mortgaged Property is located and the terms of the Mortgage Loan (and if applicable, the related Companion Loan) permit such an action.

(h)               The Special Servicer shall maintain accurate records, prepared by one of its Servicing Officers, of each Final Recovery Determination in respect of a Defaulted Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or defaulted Companion Loan or any REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) and the basis thereof. Each Final Recovery Determination shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate promptly delivered to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party) and the Master Servicer and in no event later than the next succeeding P&I Advance Determination Date.

Section 3.10        Trustee and Certificate Administrator to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files. (a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), or the receipt by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, will promptly notify the Trustee and the Custodian and request delivery of the related Mortgage File. Any such notice and request shall be in the form of a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer and shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or remitted to the Master Servicer to enable such deposit, have been or will be so deposited. Within seven (7) Business Days (or within such shorter period as release can reasonably be accomplished if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer notifies the Custodian of an exigency) of receipt of such notice and request, the Custodian shall release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided that in the case of the payment in full of a Serviced Companion Loan or its related Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage File shall not be released by the Custodian unless the related Serviced Whole Loan is paid in full. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection Account.

(b)               From time to time as is appropriate for servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (and any related Companion Loan), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Mortgage File or any document therein to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or a designee), as the case may be. Upon return of such Mortgage File or such document to the Custodian, or the delivery to the Trustee and the Custodian of a certificate of a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, stating that such Mortgage Loan (and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan), was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation which are required to be deposited into the Collection Account (including amounts related to the related Companion

Loan, if applicable) pursuant to Section 3.04(a) have been or will be so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the Custodian to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or a designee), as the case may be, with the original being released upon termination of the Trust.

(c)               Within seven (7) Business Days (or within such shorter period as delivery can reasonably be accomplished if the Special Servicer notifies the Trustee of an exigency) of receipt thereof, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Special Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note (including any note evidencing a related Companion Loan) or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. The Special Servicer shall be responsible for the preparation of all such documents and pleadings. When submitted to the Trustee for signature, such documents or pleadings shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Servicing Officer requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and certifying as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s sale. The Trustee shall not be required to review such documents for their sufficiency or enforceability.

(d)               If, from time to time, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, and as appropriate for enforcing the terms of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer requests delivery to it of the original Mortgage Note for a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, then the Custodian shall release or cause the release of such original Mortgage Note to such Non-Serviced Master Servicer or its designee.

Section 3.11        Servicing Compensation. (a) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan and REO Loan (other than the portion of any REO Loan related to any Non-Serviced Companion Loan) (including Specially Serviced Loans and any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan constituting a “specially serviced loan” under any related Non-Serviced PSA) for which it acts as a master servicer. As to each Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan and REO Loan, the Servicing Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Servicing Fee with respect to any Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, except that if such Mortgage Loan is part of a Serviced Whole Loan and such Serviced Whole Loan continues to be serviced and administered under this Agreement notwithstanding such Liquidation Event, then the applicable Servicing Fee shall continue to accrue and be payable as if such Liquidation Event did not occur. The Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, from payments of interest on each Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan and REO

  -212-  

 

Revenues allocable as interest on each REO Loan, and as otherwise provided by Section 3.05(a). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees in respect of any applicable Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan out of that portion of related payments, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and REO Revenues (in the case of an REO Loan) allocable as recoveries of interest, to the extent permitted by Section 3.05(a).

Except as set forth in the following sentence, the fourth paragraph of this Section 3.11(a), Section 6.03, Section 6.05 and Section 7.01(c), the right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part (except in connection with a transfer of all of the Master Servicer’s duties and obligations hereunder to a successor servicer in accordance with the terms hereof). With respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, the Servicing Fee shall be payable to the Master Servicer from amounts payable in respect of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain, and shall not be required to deposit in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a), additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) in the form of the following amounts to the extent collected from the related Mortgagor and any related Companion Loan: (i) 100% of Excess Modification Fees related to any modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Non-Specially Serviced Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) that are Master Servicer Decisions; provided, that if any such matter involves a Major Decision (regardless of whether it relates to a Master Servicer Decision), then the Master Servicer shall be entitled to 50% of such Excess Modification Fees; (ii) 100% of all assumption application fees and other similar items received on any Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) that are Non-Specially Serviced Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) to the extent the Master Servicer is processing the underlying transaction and 100% of all defeasance fees (provided that for the avoidance of doubt, any such defeasance fee shall not include any Modification Fees in connection with a defeasance that the Special Servicer is entitled to under this Agreement); and (iii) 100% of assumption, waiver, consent and earnout fees, and other similar fees (other than assumption application and defeasance fees) or other actions performed in connection with this Agreement on the Non-Specially Serviced Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) relating to Master Servicer Decisions; provided, that if any such matter involves a Major Decision (regardless of whether it relates to a Master Servicer Decision), then the Master Servicer shall be entitled to 50% of such assumption, waiver, consent and earnout fees and other similar fees. In addition, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to charge and retain as additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) any charges for beneficiary statements or demands (to the extent such beneficiary statements or demands are prepared by the Master Servicer) and other customary charges, amounts collected for checks returned for insufficient funds (relating to the accounts held by the Master Servicer) and reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such review fees are not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents, in each case only to the extent actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor and shall not be required to deposit such amounts in the Collection Account or the Companion Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or Section 3.04(b), respectively. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Master Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of: (i) Penalty Charges to

  -213-  

 

the extent provided in Section 3.11(d), (ii) interest or other income earned on deposits relating to the Trust Fund in the Collection Account or the Companion Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date), (iii) interest or other income earned on deposits in its Servicing Accounts which are not required by applicable law or the related Mortgage Loan to be paid to the Mortgagor, and (iv) the difference, if positive, between Prepayment Interest Excesses and Prepayment Interest Shortfalls collected on the Mortgage Loans and any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, during the related Collection Period to the extent not required to be paid as Compensating Interest Payments. The Master Servicer shall pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of any amounts due and owing to any of its Sub-Servicers and the premiums for any blanket Insurance Policy insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07), if and to the extent such expenses are not payable directly out of the Collection Account and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

With respect to any of the preceding fees as to which both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are entitled to receive a portion thereof, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in their sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge its respective portion of such fee; provided, that (A) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will have the right to reduce or elect not to charge the portion of any such fee due to the other and (B) to the extent either of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge its respective portion in any such fee, the party that reduced or elected not to charge its respective portion of such fee will not have any right to share in any part of the other party’s portion of such fee. If the Master Servicer decides not to charge any fee, the Special Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Master Servicer had charged a fee and the Master Servicer will not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer. Similarly, if the Special Servicer decides not to charge any fee, the Master Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Master Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had charged a fee and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any portion of such fee charged by the Master Servicer. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer may, in connection with a workout or other modification of a Mortgage Loan and without the consent of the Master Servicer, waive any or all related Penalty Charges, regardless of who is entitled to receive such payments as compensation; provided that any collections in respect of such Penalty Charges allocated to additional servicing compensation shall be shared pro rata by the Master Servicer and Special Servicer based on the respective portions of such Penalty Charges to which each would otherwise have been entitled.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association may, at its option, assign or pledge to any third party or retain for itself the Transferable Servicing Interest with respect to any Mortgage Loan and any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (and any successor REO Loan); provided, however, that in the event of any resignation or termination of the Master Servicer, all or any portion of the Transferable Servicing Interest may be reduced by the Trustee to the extent reasonably necessary (in the sole discretion of the Trustee) for the Trustee to obtain a qualified successor master servicer that meets the

  -214-  

 

requirements of Section 6.05 and who requires market-rate servicing compensation that accrues at a per annum rate in excess of the Retained Fee Rate, and any such assignment of the Transferable Servicing Interest shall, by its terms be expressly subject to the terms of this Agreement and such reduction. The Master Servicer shall pay the Transferable Servicing Interest to the holder of the Transferable Servicing Interest at such time and to the extent the Master Servicer is entitled to receive payment of its Servicing Fees hereunder, notwithstanding any resignation or termination of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as Master Servicer hereunder (subject to reduction pursuant to the preceding sentence).

A Liquidation Fee shall be payable to the Master Servicer with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) with respect to which the Master Servicer is acting as Enforcing Servicer and obtains Liquidation Proceeds described in clauses (iv) or (vii) of the definition thereof (except if the applicable repurchase (in the case of clause (iv)) or Loss of Value Payment (in the case of clause (vii)) occurs in connection with a breach or document defect within the 90-day initial cure period or, if applicable, within the subsequent 90-day extended cure period).

(b)               As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to each Specially Serviced Loan and REO Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any REO Loan relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property). As to each Specially Serviced Loan and REO Loan, the Special Servicing Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Special Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on the Specially Serviced Loans or REO Loans, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on such Specially Serviced Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Special Servicing Fee with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs with respect to the related Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.05(a). The right to receive the Special Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Special Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Special Servicing Fees with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of:

(i)                                100% of all Excess Modification Fees related to modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Specially Serviced Loans,

(ii)                             100% of all assumption application fees and other similar items received with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and 100% of all assumption application fees and other similar items received with respect to Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and Serviced Companion Loans that are Non-Specially Serviced Loans to the extent the Special Servicer processes the underlying transaction,

  -215-  

 

(iii)                          100% of waiver, consent and earnout fees, or other actions performed in connection with this Agreement on the Specially Serviced Loans or certain other similar fees paid by the related Mortgagor on Specially Serviced Loans,

(iv)                         100% of assumption fees and other similar fees received with respect to Specially Serviced Loans,

(v)                            50% of all Excess Modification Fees and assumption, waiver, consent and earnout fees and other similar fees (other than assumption application fees and defeasance fees) received with respect to any Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans, but including any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s)) that are Non-Specially Serviced Loans to the extent that the matter involves a Major Decision,

(vi)                         with respect to the accounts held by the Special Servicer, 100% of charges by the Special Servicer collected for checks returned for insufficient funds, and

(vii)                      100% of charges for beneficiary statements and demand charges actually paid by the Mortgagors to the extent such beneficiary statements or demand charges are prepared by the Special Servicer,

shall be promptly paid to the Special Servicer by the Master Servicer (or directly from the related Mortgagor) to the extent such fees are paid by the Mortgagor and shall not be required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a). Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of: (i) Penalty Charges to the extent provided in Section 3.11(d) and (ii) interest or other income earned on deposits relating to the Trust Fund in the REO Account and Loss of Value Reserve Fund in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to such Distribution Date). In addition, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such review fees are not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents, and only to the extent actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor. The Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of a Workout Fee with respect to each Corrected Loan at the Workout Fee Rate on such Corrected Loan for so long as it remains a Corrected Loan; provided, however, that after receipt by the Special Servicer of Workout Fees with respect to such Corrected Loan in an amount equal to $25,000, any Workout Fees in excess of such amount shall be reduced by the Excess Modification Fee Amount received by the Special Servicer; provided, further, however, that in the event the Workout Fee collected over the course of such workout calculated at the Workout Fee Rate is less than $25,000, then the Special Servicer shall be entitled to an amount from the final payment on the related Corrected Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) that would result in the total Workout Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of that Corrected Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) being equal to $25,000. The Workout Fee shall be reduced (but not below zero) with respect to each collection on such Corrected Loan from which fee would otherwise be payable until an amount equal to the Excess Modification Fee Amount has been deducted in full. The Workout Fee with respect to any Corrected Loan will cease to be payable if

  -216-  

 

such loan again becomes a Specially Serviced Loan; provided that a new Workout Fee will become payable if and when such Specially Serviced Loan again becomes a Corrected Loan. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Workout Fee with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause) or resigns, it shall retain the right to receive any and all Workout Fees payable in respect of Mortgage Loans or any related Companion Loan that became Corrected Loans prior to the time of that termination or resignation except the Workout Fees will no longer be payable if the Corrected Loan subsequently becomes a Specially Serviced Loan. If the Special Servicer resigns or is terminated (other than for cause), it will receive any Workout Fees payable on Specially Serviced Loans for which the resigning or terminated Special Servicer had determined to grant a forbearance or cured the event of default through a modification, restructuring or workout negotiated by the Special Servicer and evidenced by a signed writing, but which had not as of the time the Special Servicer resigned or was terminated become a Corrected Loan solely because the Mortgagor had not had sufficient time to make three (3) consecutive timely Periodic Payments and which subsequently becomes a Corrected Loan as a result of the Mortgagor making such three (3) consecutive timely Periodic Payments. The successor special servicer will not be entitled to any portion of such Workout Fees. The Special Servicer will not be entitled to receive any Workout Fees after termination for cause. A Liquidation Fee will be payable to the Special Servicer with respect to each (a) Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) with respect to which the Special Servicer acts as the Enforcing Servicer (including in connection with certain Loss of Value Payments), (b) Specially Serviced Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), (c) REO Property (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) as to which the Special Servicer receives any Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and (d) defaulted Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan sold by the Special Servicer in accordance with this Agreement, in each case, subject to the exceptions set forth in the definition of Liquidation Fee (such Liquidation Fee to be paid out of such Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds). If, however, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds are received with respect to any Corrected Loan and the Special Servicer is properly entitled to a Workout Fee, such Workout Fee will be payable based on and out of the portion of such Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds that constitute principal and/or interest on such Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall only be entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee or a Workout Fee, but not both, with respect to proceeds on any Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Companion Loan, the Liquidation Fee, Workout Fee and Special Servicing Fees, if any, will be computed as provided in the related Intercreditor Agreement or to the extent such Intercreditor Agreement is silent or refers to this Agreement or indicates such fees are paid in accordance with this Agreement, as provided herein as though such Companion Loan were a Mortgage Loan. Subject to Section 3.11(c), the Special Servicer will also be entitled to additional fees in the form of Penalty Charges. The Special Servicer shall pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of any amounts, other than management fees in respect of REO Properties, due and owing to any of its Sub-Servicers and the premiums for any blanket Insurance Policy obtained by it insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07), if and to the extent such expenses are not expressly payable directly out of the Collection Account or the REO Account, and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

  -217-  

 

With respect to any of the preceding fees as to which both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are entitled to receive a portion thereof, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in their sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge its respective portion of such fee; provided, that (A) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will have the right to reduce or elect not to charge the portion of any such fee due to the other and (B) to the extent either the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge its respective portion in any such fee, the party that reduced or elected not to charge its respective portion of such fee will not have any right to share in any part of the other party’s portion of such fee. If the Master Servicer decides not to charge any fee, the Special Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Master Servicer had charged a fee and the Master Servicer will not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer. Similarly, if the Special Servicer decides not to charge any fee, the Master Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Master Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had charged a fee and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any portion of such fee charged by the Master Servicer. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer may, in connection with a workout or other modification of a Mortgage Loan and without the consent of the Master Servicer, waive any or all related Penalty Charges, regardless of who is entitled to receive such payments as compensation; provided that any collections in respect of such Penalty Charges allocated to additional servicing compensation shall be shared pro rata by the Master Servicer and Special Servicer based on the respective portions of such Penalty Charges to which each would otherwise have been entitled.

(d)               In determining the compensation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to Penalty Charges, on any Distribution Date, the aggregate Penalty Charges collected on any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Companion Loan since the prior Distribution Date shall be applied (in such order) to reimburse (i) the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee for interest on Advances on such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan, if applicable (and, in connection with a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer, the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee for interest on the servicing advances made by any such party with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan pursuant to the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement) due on such Distribution Date, (ii) the Trust for all interest on Advances previously paid to the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vi) (and, in connection with a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related trust for all interest on servicing advances reimbursed by such trust to any party under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, which resulted in an additional expense for the Trust, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement) with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan, if applicable and (iii) the Trust for all additional expenses of the Trust (including Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees), including without limitation, inspections by the Special Servicer and all unpaid Advances incurred since the Closing Date with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Penalty Charges (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, which shall be payable as additional servicing compensation under the related Non-Serviced PSA) remaining thereafter shall be distributed to the Master Servicer, if and to the extent accrued while such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan was a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, and to the Special Servicer, if and to the extent accrued on such Mortgage Loan during the period such

  -218-  

 

Mortgage Loan was a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan. Any Penalty Charges paid or payable as additional servicing compensation to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be distributed between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, on a pro rata basis, based on the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s respective entitlements to such compensation described in the previous sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else herein to the contrary, Penalty Charges with respect to any Companion Loan will be allocated pursuant to the applicable Intercreditor Agreement after payment of all related Advances and interest thereon and additional expenses of the Trust in accordance with this Section 3.11(d).

If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan prior to the applicable Servicing Shift Securitization Date, the Special Servicer shall service and administer such Servicing Shift Whole Loan and any related REO Property in the same manner as any other Specially Serviced Loan or Serviced REO Property and shall be entitled to all rights and compensation earned with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan as the Special Servicer of such Serviced Whole Loan. With respect to a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, prior to the applicable Servicing Shift Securitization Date, no other special servicer will be entitled to any such compensation or have such rights and obligations. If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan is still a Specially Serviced Loan on the applicable Servicing Shift Securitization Date, the Non-Serviced Special Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to compensation with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan as if the Special Servicer were being terminated as the Special Servicer with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan and the Non-Serviced Special Servicer were replacing the Special Servicer as the successor Special Servicer with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan.

(e)               With respect to each Distribution Date, the Special Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer within two (2) Business Days following the Determination Date, and the Master Servicer shall deliver, to the extent it has received, to the Certificate Administrator, without charge and on the related Remittance Date, an electronic report (which may include HTML, Word or Excel compatible format, clean and searchable PDF format or such other format as mutually agreeable between the Certificate Administrator and the Special Servicer) that discloses and contains an itemized listing of any Disclosable Special Servicer Fees received by the Special Servicer or any of its Affiliates, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date; provided that no such report shall be due in any month during which no Disclosable Special Servicer Fees were received.

(f)                The Special Servicer and its Affiliates shall be prohibited from receiving or retaining any compensation or any other remuneration (including, without limitation, in the form of commissions, brokerage fees, rebates, or as a result of any other fee-sharing arrangement) from any Person (including, without limitation, the Trust, any Mortgagor, any property manager, any guarantor or indemnitor in respect of a Mortgage Loan and any purchaser of any Mortgage Loan or REO Property) in connection with the disposition, workout or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, the management or disposition of any REO Property, or the performance of any other special servicing duties under this Agreement, other than as expressly provided in this Section 3.11; provided that such prohibition shall not apply to Permitted Special Servicer/Affiliate Fees.

(g)               Pursuant to the CREFC^® License Agreement, CREFC^® shall be paid (according to the payment instructions set forth on Exhibit JJ hereto or such other payment

  -219-  

 

instructions as CREFC^® may provide to the Master Servicer in writing at least two Business Days prior to the Remittance Date) the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee on a monthly basis. The Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and, to the extent sufficient funds are on deposit therein, pay the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee to CREFC^® in accordance with Section 3.05(a)(xii) on a monthly basis, from funds on deposit in the Collection Account.

Section 3.12        Inspections; Collection of Financial Statements; Delivery of Reports. (a) The Master Servicer shall perform (at its own expense), or shall cause to be performed (at its own expense), a physical inspection of each Mortgaged Property relating to a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, an REO Loan or a Specially Serviced Loan) with a Stated Principal Balance of (i) $2,000,000 or more at least once every twelve (12) months and (ii) less than $2,000,000 at least once every twenty-four (24) months, in each case, commencing in the calendar year 2025 (and each Mortgaged Property shall be inspected on or prior to December 31, 2026); provided, however, that if a physical inspection has been performed by the Special Servicer in the previous twelve (12) months, the Master Servicer will not be required to perform, or cause to be performed, such physical inspection; provided, further, that if any scheduled payment becomes more than sixty (60) days delinquent on the related Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall inspect or cause to be inspected the related Mortgaged Property as soon as practicable after such Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan and annually thereafter for so long as such Mortgage Loan remains a Specially Serviced Loan. The cost of such inspection by the Special Servicer pursuant to the second proviso of the immediately preceding sentence shall be an expense of the Trust, and, to the extent not paid by the related Mortgagor, reimbursed first from Penalty Charges actually received from the related Mortgagor and then from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(ii), provided that, in the case of such reimbursement relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, such reimbursement shall be made, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, first, from any related AB Subordinate Companion Loan (if any) and then, pro rata and pari passu, from the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan in accordance with their respective outstanding principal balances (provided that, with respect to any AB Subordinate Companion Loan, the foregoing shall not limit or otherwise modify the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement pursuant to which any amounts collected with respect to the related Whole Loan are allocated to the related Serviced AB Mortgage Loan, any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans and the AB Subordinate Companion Loan), in each case, prior to being payable out of general collections. The Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall prepare or cause to be prepared a written report of each such inspection detailing the condition of and any damage to the Mortgaged Property to the extent evident from the inspection and specifying the existence of (i) any vacancy at the Mortgaged Property that the preparer of such report has knowledge of and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, deems material, (ii) any sale, transfer or abandonment of the Mortgaged Property of which the preparer of such report has knowledge or that is evident from the inspection, (iii) any adverse change in the condition of the Mortgaged Property of which the preparer of such report has knowledge or that is evident from the inspection, and that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, deems material, (iv) any visible material waste committed on the Mortgaged Property of which the preparer of such report has knowledge or that is evident from the inspection and (v) photographs of each inspected Mortgaged Property. The Special Servicer and the Master Servicer shall promptly following preparation deliver or make available a copy (in electronic format) of

In addition, the Special Servicer shall cause quarterly and annual operating statements, budgets and rent rolls to be regularly prepared in respect of each REO Property and shall collect all such items promptly following their preparation.

Promptly following the initial preparation and each material revision thereof, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer (in electronic format) each CREFC^® Operating Statement Analysis Report with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, and REO Properties, for which it acts as Special Servicer, along with the related operating statements.

Promptly following the initial preparation and each material revision thereof, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer (in electronic format) each CREFC^® NOI Adjustment Worksheet with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, and REO Properties, for which it acts as the Special Servicer. The Master Servicer shall deliver or make available copies (in electronic format) of each CREFC® NOI Adjustment Worksheet and, upon request, the related operating statements or rent rolls (in each case, promptly following the initial

  -222-  

 

preparation and each material revision thereof) to the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder, the related Companion Holder (with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan) and, upon request, the 17g-5 Information Provider, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post all such items to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website.

(c)               At or before 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on each Determination Date, the Special Servicer shall prepare and deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder, the CREFC^® Special Servicer Loan File and any applicable CREFC^® Loan Liquidation Reports, CREFC^® Loan Modification Reports and CREFC^® REO Liquidation Reports with respect to the Specially Serviced Loans (excluding, for the Directing Certificateholder, any Excluded Loans) and any REO Properties (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), providing the information required of the Special Servicer in an electronic format, reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer as of the Business Day preceding such Determination Date, which CREFC^® Special Servicer Loan File shall include data, to enable the Master Servicer to produce the following supplemental CREFC^® reports: (i) a CREFC^® Delinquent Loan Status Report, (ii) a CREFC^® Historical Loan Modification/Forbearance and Corrected Mortgage Loan Report, (iii) a CREFC^® REO Status Report, (iv) a CREFC^® Comparative Financial Status Report and (v) a CREFC^® NOI Adjustment Worksheet and a CREFC^® Operating Statement Analysis Report, in each case with the supporting financial statements, budgets, operating statements and rent rolls submitted by the Mortgagor.

(d)               Not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on each P&I Advance Date beginning June 2024, the Master Servicer shall prepare (if and to the extent necessary) and deliver or cause to be delivered in electronic format to the Certificate Administrator the following reports and data files with respect to the Mortgage Loans: (A) to the extent the Master Servicer has received the CREFC^® Special Servicer Loan File at the time required, the most recent CREFC^® Delinquent Loan Status Report, CREFC^® Historical Loan Modification/Forbearance and Corrected Mortgage Loan Report and the CREFC^® REO Status Report, (B) CREFC^® Loan Setup File (only with respect to the first Distribution Date), (C) the most recent CREFC^® Property File, and CREFC^® Comparative Financial Status Report (in each case incorporating the data required to be included in the CREFC^® Special Servicer Loan File pursuant to Section 3.12(c) by the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer), (D) a CREFC^® Servicer Watch List with information that is current as of such Determination Date, (E) CREFC^® Financial File, (F) CREFC^® Loan Level Reserve/LOC Report, (G) the CREFC^® Advance Recovery Report, (H) CREFC^® Total Loan Report and (I) the report on Disclosable Special Servicer Fees delivered pursuant to Section 3.11(e) to the extent received from the Special Servicer, if any. Additionally, not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the P&I Advance Date beginning June 2024, the Master Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered in electronic format to the Certificate Administrator any applicable CREFC^® Loan Liquidation Reports, CREFC^® Loan Modification Reports and CREFC^® REO Liquidation Reports received from the Special Servicer. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days prior to the Distribution Date beginning June 2024, the Master Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Certificate Administrator via electronic format the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File and, to the extent received by the Master Servicer, the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Template, if provided for such Distribution Date.

  -223-  

 

received by the Master Servicer, as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Business Day on which the report is due.

Not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on each P&I Advance Date beginning June 2024, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Certificate Administrator a CREFC^® Schedule AL File and may deliver to the Certificate Administrator a Schedule AL Additional File, each covering all of the Mortgage Loans, and each in both EDGAR-Compatible Format and Excel format; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to prepare or deliver the CREFC^® Schedule AL File for any given Distribution Date unless the Master Servicer receives the Initial Schedule AL File from the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.01(i). If the Certificate Administrator does not receive the CREFC^® Schedule AL File from the Master Servicer by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the P&I Advance Date, it shall request the CREFC^® Schedule AL File from the Master Servicer via email at ssreports@wellsfargo.com and send a copy of such request to the Depositor via email at CRRCompliance@wellsfargo.com. In preparing the CREFC^® Schedule AL File and any Schedule AL Additional File for any given Distribution Date, and without any due diligence, investigation or verification, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely, absent manifest error, on the content, completeness and accuracy of the Initial Schedule AL File and Annex A-1 to the Prospectus. The CREFC^® Schedule AL File and the Schedule AL Additional File delivered by the Master Servicer shall each be a single file. The Certificate Administrator shall not be required to combine multiple CREFC^® Schedule AL Files or Schedule AL Additional Files provided or prepared by or on behalf of either or the Master Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall not be required to review, redact, reconcile, edit or verify the content, completeness or accuracy of the information contained in any CREFC^® Schedule AL File or Schedule AL Additional File. The Certificate Administrator shall not be deemed to have actual knowledge of the contents of any CREFC^® Schedule AL File or Schedule AL Additional File solely by its receipt thereof.

In the absence of manifest error, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, without investigation or inquiry, any information and reports delivered to it by any third party, and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the Master Servicer’s reports and the Special Servicer’s reports and any information provided by the Trustee, without any duty or obligation to recompute, verify or recalculate any of the amounts and other information stated therein.

(e)               The Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer the reports and information required of the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) and Section 3.12(c), and the Master Servicer shall deliver or make available to the Certificate Administrator the reports and data files set forth in Section 3.12(d). The Master Servicer may, absent manifest error, conclusively rely on the reports and/or data to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) and Section 3.12(c). The Certificate Administrator may, absent manifest error, conclusively rely on the reports and/or data to be provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(d). In the case of information or reports to be furnished by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 3.12(d), to the extent that such information or reports are, in turn, based on information or reports to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c) and to the extent that such reports are to be prepared and delivered by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c), the Master Servicer shall have no obligation

  -224-  

 

to provide such information or reports to the Certificate Administrator until it has received the requisite information or reports from the Special Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall not be in default hereunder due to a delay in providing the reports required by Section 3.12(d) caused by the Special Servicer’s failure to timely provide any information or report required under Section 3.11(e), Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c) of this Agreement.

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by this Section 3.12 shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.12 to the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer so fails because such disclosure, in the reasonable belief of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would violate any applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may disclose any such information or any additional information to any Person so long as such disclosure is consistent with applicable law and the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may affix to any information provided by it any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto).

(g)               Unless otherwise specifically stated herein, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is required to deliver any statement, report or information under any provisions of this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may satisfy such obligation by (x) physically delivering a paper copy of such statement, report or information, (y) delivering such statement, report or information in a commonly used electronic format or (z) making such statement, report or information available on the Master Servicer’s website (with respect to items delivered by the Master Servicer (except with respect to items delivered by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator)) or the Certificate Administrator’s Website, unless this Agreement expressly specifies a particular method of delivery.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall deliver any required statements, reports or other information to the Certificate Administrator in an electronic format mutually agreeable to the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may physically deliver a paper copy of any such statement, report or information as a temporary measure due to system problems, however, copies in electronic format shall follow upon the correction of such system problems.

Section 3.13        Access to Certain Information. (a) The Master Servicer and Special Servicer shall provide or cause to be provided to the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall afford access to any Mortgage Loan Seller and to any Certificateholder that is a federally insured financial institution, the OCC, the FDIC, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America and the supervisory agents and examiners of such boards and such corporations, and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any such Certificateholder and to each Holder of a Non-Registered Certificate, access to any documentation or information regarding the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is a portion of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan, and the Trust within its control which may be required by applicable law. At the election of the Master Servicer, the Special

  -225-  

 

Servicer or the Certificate Administrator, such access may be afforded to such Person identified above by the delivery of copies of information as requested by such Person and Master Servicer, Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator shall be permitted to require payment (other than from the Directing Certificateholder and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator on its own behalf or on behalf of the Certificateholders) of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by it in making such copies. Such access shall (except as described in the preceding sentence) be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian.

The failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section 3.13 as a result of a confidentiality obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.13. In connection with providing information pursuant to this Section 3.13, the Master Servicer and Special Servicer may each (i) affix a reasonable disclaimer to any information provided by it for which it is not the original source (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto); (ii) affix to any information provided by it a reasonable statement regarding securities law restrictions on such information and/or condition access to information on (x) the execution of a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit X, or (y) execution of a “click-through” confidentiality agreement if such information is being provided through the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s website; (iii) withhold access to confidential information or any intellectual property; and/or (iv) withhold access to items of information contained in the Servicing File for any Mortgage Loan if the disclosure of such items is prohibited by applicable law or the provisions of any related Mortgage Loan documents or would constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by it pursuant to this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement to the extent that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines, in its reasonable good faith judgment consistent with the applicable Servicing Standard, that such disclosure would violate applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or Companion Loans or the Mortgaged Properties, constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege on behalf of the Trust or otherwise materially harm the Trust. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may refrain from disclosing information that it reasonably determines would prejudice the interests of the Certificateholders with respect to a workout or exercise of remedies as to any particular Mortgage Loan.

Notwithstanding the limitation set forth in the next succeeding paragraph, but subject to the last sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph, upon the reasonable request of any Certificateholder (or with respect to any AB Subordinate Companion Loan related to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, the holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan) that has delivered an Investor Certification to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, may provide (or make available electronically) or make available at the expense of such Certificateholder or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, copies of any appraisals, operating statements, rent rolls and financial statements (in each case, solely relating to the related Serviced Whole Loan or Serviced AB Whole Loan, if requested by the holder of an AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as the case

  -226-  

 

may be) obtained by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided that, in connection with such request, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may require a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, generally to the effect that such Person will keep such information confidential and shall use such information only for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Certificateholder or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, may have under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (other than as permitted in the preceding paragraph with respect to any Certificateholder or as specifically provided for herein with respect to the Directing Certificateholder), unless required by applicable law or court order, no Certificateholder (except, with respect to a Mortgage Loan Seller, to the extent necessary for such party to comply with its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and except for the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, acting in such capacities) or beneficial owner shall be given access to, or be provided copies of, the Mortgage Files or Diligence Files.

(b)               The Certificate Administrator shall make available to Privileged Persons (provided that the Prospectus, Distribution Date Statements, Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements, this Agreement and the Commission EDGAR filings referred to below will be available to the general public) via the Certificate Administrator’s Website, the following items, in each case, to the extent such items were prepared by or delivered to the Certificate Administrator in electronic format:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Excluded Information shall be made available under a separate tab or heading designated “Excluded Information” on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (and not under any of the tabs or headings described in items (i) through (vii) above) and made available to Privileged Persons other than any Excluded Controlling Class Holder that is a Borrower Party (unless a loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s)).

Any Person that is a Borrower Party shall only be entitled to access (a) the Distribution Date Statements, and the following items made available to the general public: the Prospectus, this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements and the Commission filings on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and (b) in the case of the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, if any such Person becomes an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, upon delivery to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in physical form (or, solely with respect to the Master Servicer, in electronic form) of an investor certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1D and upon delivery to the Certificate Administrator in physical form of an investor certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1F, which shall include each of the CTSLink User ID associated with such Excluded Controlling Class Holder, all information (other than the Excluded Information with respect to any Excluded Controlling Class Loans (unless a loan-by-the applicable loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loans)) available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website.

  -231-  

 

Certificateholder to the effect that such Person is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder and (ii) an investor certification in the form of Exhibit P-1D in physical form (or, solely with respect to the Master Servicer, in electronic form) hereto from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder to the effect that such Person is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to one or more Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s). In the event the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder becomes an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, such party shall promptly notify each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1E that such party has become an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to the Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s) listed in such notice and shall also provide the Certificate Administrator a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1F listing each of the CTSLink User ID associated with such Excluded Controlling Class Holder and directing the Certificate Administrator to restrict such Excluded Controlling Class Holder’s access to the Certificate Administrator’s Website as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. Upon confirmation from the Certificate Administrator that such access has been restricted, such Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall submit a new investor certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1D in physical form (or, solely with respect to the Master Servicer, in electronic form) to access the information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, except that such Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall not be entitled to access any Excluded Information related to any Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s) (unless a loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s)) made available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. With respect to any Excluded Information sent for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor shall mark or label such information as “Excluded Information” prior to delivery to the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall segregate on the Certificate Administrator’s Website such Excluded Information (and, if possible at a later time, on loan-by-loan basis) from information relating to other Mortgage Loans or Whole Loans, as applicable.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively assume that the Directing Certificateholder and all beneficial owners of the Certificates of the Controlling Class are not Excluded Controlling Class Holders except to the extent that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, has received a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1E from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that it has become an Excluded Controlling Class Holder. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator shall be liable for any communication to the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder or disclosure of any information relating to an Excluded Controlling Class Loan (including any related Excluded Information delivered to the Certificate Administrator for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website) if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, did not receive prior written notice that the related Mortgage Loan is an Excluded Controlling Class Loan and/or, with respect to any related Excluded Information posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website,

  -232-  

 

such information was not delivered to the Certificate Administrator in accordance with Section 3.33.

Each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely on delivery from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder of an investor certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B that it is not or is no longer an Excluded Controlling Class Holder. To the extent the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder receives access pursuant to this Agreement to any Excluded Information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website or otherwise receives access to such Excluded Information, such Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Class Certificateholder shall be deemed to have agreed that it (i) will not directly or indirectly provide any such Excluded Information to (A) the related Borrower Party, (B) any related Excluded Controlling Class Holder, (C) any employees or personnel of such Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Class Certificateholder or any of its Affiliates involved in the management of any investment in the related Borrower Party or the related Mortgaged Property or (D) to its actual knowledge, any non-Affiliate that holds a direct or indirect ownership interest in the related Borrower Party, and (ii) will maintain sufficient internal controls and appropriate policies and procedures in place in order to comply with the obligations described in clause (i) above.

Section 3.14        Title to REO Property; REO Account. (a) If title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired (directly or through a single member limited liability company established for that purpose) and thus becomes REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued in the name of the Trust where permitted by applicable law or regulation and consistent with customary servicing procedures, and otherwise, in the name of the Trustee or its nominee on behalf of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, on behalf of the related Companion Holders, in the case of a Serviced Companion Loan. REO Property with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is excluded for all purposes of this Section 3.14. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, shall sell any REO Property prior to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which the Trust acquires ownership of such REO Property, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.856-6(b)(1), for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code, unless the Special Servicer either (i) applies for a qualifying extension of time no later than sixty (60) days prior to the close of the third calendar year in which it acquired ownership (or the period provided in then-applicable REMIC Provisions) and such extension is granted or is not denied (an “REO Extension”) by the IRS to sell such REO Property or (ii) obtains for the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such REO Property subsequent to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which acquisition occurred will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event. If the Special Servicer is granted or not denied the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence or obtains the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Special Servicer shall sell such REO Property within such longer period as is permitted by such REO Extension or such Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. Any expense incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with its being granted the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the second preceding sentence or its obtaining the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the second preceding sentence, shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a).

(b)               The Special Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with any REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets. If an REO Acquisition shall occur, the Special Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more REO Accounts, held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, on behalf of any related Companion Holder(s), as applicable, as their interest shall

  -239-  

 

appear, and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), for the retention of revenues and other proceeds derived from each REO Property. The REO Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Special Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the REO Account, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of properly identified funds (so long as such funds are not otherwise used in connection with any REO Property pursuant to Section 3.14(c)), all REO Revenues, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds received in respect of an REO Property. Funds in the REO Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 3.06. The Special Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, and the Master Servicer of the location of the REO Account when first established and of the new location of the REO Account prior to any change thereof.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall withdraw from the REO Account funds necessary for the proper operation, management, insuring, leasing, maintenance and disposition of any REO Property, but only to the extent of amounts on deposit in the REO Account relating to such REO Property. On the later of the date that is (x) on or prior to each Determination Date or (y) two (2) Business Days after such amounts are received and properly identified (or, with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan (and disregarding the foregoing later of clauses (x) and (y)), on the Business Day preceding each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date; provided that amounts withdrawn shall be limited to those that have been received, properly identified and deposited to the REO Account, and provided, further, that the Special Servicer shall not be required to include in its remittance any funds not received by 12:00 p.m. on the second Business Day preceding such Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date), the Special Servicer shall withdraw from the REO Account and remit to the Master Servicer, which shall deposit into the Collection Account (or the Companion Distribution Account, as applicable), the aggregate of all amounts received in respect of each REO Property during the most recently ended Collection Period, net of (i) any withdrawals made out of such amounts pursuant to the preceding sentence and (ii) Net Investment Earnings on amounts on deposit in the REO Account; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may retain in such REO Account, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, such portion of such balance as may be necessary to maintain a reasonable reserve for repairs, replacements, leasing, management and tenant improvements and other related expenses for the related REO Property. In addition, on or prior to the day the Special Servicer remits funds as provided in this Section 3.14(c), the Special Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer with a written accounting of amounts remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, as applicable, on such date. The Master Servicer shall apply all such amounts as instructed by the Special Servicer on the Determination Date (or with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, on each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date) for the related Distribution Date.

(d)               The Special Servicer shall keep and maintain separate records, on a property-by-property basis, for the purpose of accounting for all deposits to, and withdrawals from, the REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(b) or Section 3.14(c).

Section 3.15        Management of REO Property. (a) If title to any REO Property is acquired, the Special Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect, operate and lease such REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) solely for the purpose of its timely disposition and sale in a manner that does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of

  -240-  

 

Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by the Trust or any Serviced Companion Noteholder of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or result in an Adverse REMIC Event. Subject to the foregoing, however, the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority to do any and all things in connection therewith as are in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of each Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder(s)) and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) all as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu nature of any Companion Loan, as the case may be) (as determined by the Special Servicer in its reasonable judgment in accordance with the Servicing Standard). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, REO Property with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is excluded for all purposes of this Section 3.15. Subject to this Section 3.15, the Special Servicer may allow the Trust or any commercial mortgage securitization that holds any Serviced Companion Loan to earn “net income from foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(d) of the Code if it determines that earning such income is in the best interests of Certificateholders and, if applicable, any related Companion Holder(s) on a net after-tax basis as compared with net leasing such REO Property or operating such REO Property on a different basis. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis (and in no event later than two (2) Business Days following receipt of such properly identified funds) in the applicable REO Account all revenues received by it with respect to each REO Property and the related REO Loan, and shall withdraw from the REO Account, to the extent of amounts on deposit therein with respect to such REO Property, funds necessary for the proper operation, management, leasing and maintenance of such REO Property, including, without limitation:

(i)                            all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property;

(ii)                        all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon;

(iii)                     any ground rents in respect of such REO Property, if applicable; and

(iv)                     all costs and expenses necessary to maintain and lease such REO Property.

To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account in respect of any REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above with respect to such REO Property, the Master Servicer (subject to receiving notice from the Special Servicer in accordance with the procedures set forth elsewhere in this Agreement) shall advance from its own funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes unless (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, and prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event)) such advances would, if made, constitute Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances.

  -241-  

 

(b)               Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Special Servicer shall:

(i)                                 permit the Trust to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;

(ii)                              permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;

(iii)                          authorize or permit any construction on any REO Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than 10% of the construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default on the related Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or

(iv)                         Directly Operate, or allow any other Person, other than an Independent Contractor, to Directly Operate, any REO Property on any date more than ninety (90) days after its acquisition date;

unless, in any such case, the Special Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance) to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held for the benefit of the Trust, in which case the Special Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall contract with any Independent Contractor for the operation and management of any REO Property within ninety (90) days of the acquisition date thereof, provided that:

(i)                                 the terms and conditions of any such contract may not be inconsistent herewith and shall reflect an agreement reached at arm’s length;

(ii)                              the fees of such Independent Contractor (which shall be an expense of the Trust) shall be reasonable and customary in light of the nature and locality of the Mortgaged Property;

(iii)                          any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor (A) pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property, including, without limitation, those listed in subsection (a) hereof, and (B) remit all related revenues collected (net of its fees and such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer upon receipt;

(iv)                          none of the provisions of this Section 3.15(c) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and obligations hereunder with respect to the operation and management of any such REO Property; and

  -242-  

 

(v)                             the Special Servicer shall be obligated to manage and supervise such Independent Contractor in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

The Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Special Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(d)               When and as necessary, the Special Servicer shall send to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer a statement prepared by the Special Servicer setting forth the amount of net income or net loss, as determined for federal income tax purposes, resulting from the operation and management of a trade or business on, the furnishing or rendering of a non-customary service to the tenants of, or the receipt of any other amount not constituting Rents from Real Property in respect of, any REO Property in accordance with Section 3.15(a) and Section 3.15(b).

Section 3.16        Sale of Defaulted Loans and REO Properties. (a) (i) Within thirty (30) days after a Defaulted Loan has become a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall order (but shall not be required to have received) an Appraisal and within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Appraisal shall determine the fair value of such Defaulted Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard; provided, however, that if the Special Servicer is then in the process of obtaining an Appraisal with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Special Servicer shall make its fair value determination as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any event within thirty (30) days) after its receipt of such an Appraisal. The Special Servicer may, from time to time, adjust its fair value determination based upon changed circumstances, new information and other relevant factors, in each instance in accordance with a review of such circumstances and new information in accordance with the Servicing Standard including, without limitation, the period and amount of the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy; provided that the Special Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer in writing of the initial fair value determination and any adjustment to its fair value determination.

(ii)                              If any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan subject to an Intercreditor Agreement is a Specially Serviced Loan or to the extent otherwise required pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, then the Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan) or the Master Servicer (with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan) shall promptly notify in writing the other, any related Companion Holder and any related mezzanine lender, as applicable, of any events requiring notice under the Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof. Thereafter, any related Companion Holder and related mezzanine lender, as applicable, will, notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, have the option to purchase the related Mortgage Loan and cure defaults relating thereto as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(iii)                           If any Mortgage Loan not subject to an Intercreditor Agreement becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, or if the related Companion Holder or related mezzanine lender, as applicable, for any such Mortgage Loan subject to an Intercreditor Agreement has not

  -243-  

 

previously exercised the option to purchase the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the previous paragraph, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to solicit offers for each Defaulted Loan on behalf of the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Serviced Companion Loan in such manner as will be reasonably likely to maximize the value of the Defaulted Loan on a net present value basis, if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that no satisfactory arrangements (including by way of a discounted pay-off) can be made for collection of delinquent payments thereon and such a sale would be in the best economic interests of the Trust and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder. In the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the extent permitted under the related Intercreditor Agreement, and such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is not sold together with the Non-Serviced Companion Loan by the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, the Special Servicer will be entitled to sell (with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing provided such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan as to such party) such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan if it determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such action would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement (and provided that the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer will not be entitled to a liquidation fee), the Special Servicer will be entitled to the liquidation fee that the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer would have otherwise been entitled to in connection with the sale of such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicer is required to give the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Directing Certificateholder (but only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and other than in respect of any Excluded Loan as to such party) not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell any Defaulted Loan. In the absence of a cash offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, the Special Servicer may purchase the Defaulted Loan for the Purchase Price or may accept the first cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for the Defaulted Loan.

(iv)                          (A) In the case of a Specially Serviced Loan as to which a default has occurred and is continuing, in the absence of any offer at least equal to the Purchase Price pursuant to clause (iii) above (or purchase by the Special Servicer for such price), the Special Servicer shall solicit offers and, subject to sub-clause (B) below, accept the highest offer received from any Person that is determined by the Special Servicer to be a fair price for such Specially Serviced Loan, if the offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person. In determining whether any offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any Defaulted Loan, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to this Agreement within the prior nine (9) months), among other factors, the period and amount of the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. If the offeror is an Interested Person (provided that the Trustee may not be an offeror), the Trustee shall determine whether the offer constitutes a fair price unless such offer by an Interested Person (i) is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price and (ii) is the highest offer received. Absent an offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (x) it is the highest offer received and (y) at least two (2) other offers are received from independent third parties. In determining whether any offer

  -244-  

 

received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any such Defaulted Loan, the Trustee shall rely on the most recent Appraisal (or update of such Appraisal) of the related Mortgaged Property conducted in accordance with this Agreement within the preceding nine (9) month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. Except as provided in the following paragraph, the cost of any Appraisal will be covered by, and will be reimbursable as, a Servicing Advance by the Master Servicer.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee must (at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable by, the Interested Person; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee. The Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person. Neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any Specially Serviced Loan.

(B)              The Special Servicer will not be obligated to accept the highest offer if the Special Servicer determines (in consultation with the Directing Certificateholder, subject to the limitations of Section 6.08(b) (unless a Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party) and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder), in accordance with the Servicing Standard (and subject to the requirements of any related Intercreditor Agreement), that the rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Holders of Certificates and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder constituted a single lender). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer from any Person other than an Affiliate of the Special Servicer if it determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that the acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Holders of Certificates and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder constituted a

  -245-  

 

single lender) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations, or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable); provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to sell all Defaulted Loans prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall have no obligation to make any fair value determination, to the extent required to do so pursuant to this Section 3.16, on the basis of anything other than the related Appraisal.

(v)               Unless and until any Specially Serviced Loan is sold pursuant to this Section 3.16(a), the Special Servicer shall pursue such other resolution strategies with respect to such Specially Serviced Loan, including, without limitation, workout and foreclosure, as the Special Servicer may deem appropriate, consistent with the Asset Status Report and the Servicing Standard and the REMIC Provisions.

(b)               (i) The Special Servicer may purchase any REO Property at the Purchase Price therefor (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such purchase shall be a purchase of the entire REO Property, including the portion relating to the related Companion Loan). The Special Servicer may also offer to sell to any Person any REO Property (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such sale shall be a sale of the entire REO Property, including the portion relating to the related Companion Loan), if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that such a sale would be in the best economic interest of the Trust and the related Companion Holders. The Special Servicer shall give the Trustee, the Master Servicer, each Companion Holder, the Certificate Administrator and the Directing Certificateholder (other than an Excluded Loan as to such party and prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice of its intention to (i) purchase any REO Property at the Purchase Price therefor or (ii) sell any REO Property, in which case the Special Servicer shall accept the highest offer received from any Person for any REO Property in an amount at least equal to the Purchase Price therefor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, and subject to the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer, an Affiliate of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Special Servicer, or an employee of either of them may act as broker in connection with the sale of any REO Property and may retain from the proceeds of such sale a brokerage commission that does not exceed the commission that would have been earned by an independent broker pursuant to a brokerage agreement entered into at arm’s length.

(ii)                              In the absence of any such offer as set forth in sub-clause (A) above, the Special Servicer shall, subject to sub-clause (C) below, accept the highest offer for such REO Property received from any Person that is determined to be a fair price (1) by the Special Servicer, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, or (2) by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested Person unless such offer by an Interested Person (i) is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price and (ii) is the highest offer received; provided, however, that absent an offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (A) it is the highest offer received and (B) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Trustee, in its

  -246-  

 

individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any REO Property pursuant hereto.

(iii)                           The Special Servicer shall not be obligated by either of the foregoing paragraphs or otherwise to accept the highest offer if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder, and in either case, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu nature of any Serviced Companion Loans). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer if it determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder, and in either case, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu nature of any Serviced Companion Loans) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations, or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable); provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer.

(iv)                          In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any REO Property, the Trustee shall obtain and may conclusively rely on the opinion of an Independent appraiser or other Independent expert in real estate matters retained by the Trustee in connection with making such determination. The reasonable cost of such Independent appraiser or other Independent expert shall be an expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser. The reasonable fees and costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person and the Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person. In determining whether any offer constitutes a fair price for any REO Property, the Special Servicer or the Trustee (or, if applicable, such appraiser) shall take into account, and any appraiser or other expert in real estate matters shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the physical condition of such REO Property, the state of the local economy and the Trust’s obligation to comply with REMIC Provisions.

(v)                            Subject to the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trust and the related Companion Holders in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any REO Property, including the collection of all amounts payable in connection therewith. A sale of any REO Property shall be without recourse to, or representation or warranty by, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Trust (except that any contract of sale and assignment and conveyance documents may contain customary warranties of title, so long as the only recourse for breach thereof is to the Trust) and, if consummated in accordance with the terms of this

  -247-  

 

Agreement, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Trustee shall have any liability to the Trust or any Certificateholder or related Companion Holder (if applicable) with respect to the purchase price therefor accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.

(c)               Any sale of a Defaulted Loan or any REO Property shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC Provisions or authoritative interpretations thereof made or issued subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other consideration).

(d)               With respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, if the related Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan, and if the Special Servicer determines to sell the related Mortgage Loan that has become a Defaulted Loan in accordance with this Section 3.16, then the Special Servicer shall sell the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan together with such Mortgage Loan as one whole loan and shall require that all offers be submitted to the Special Servicer in writing. To the extent a determination is required to be made hereunder as to whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for a Serviced Whole Loan, such determination shall be made by the Special Servicer unless the offeror is an Interested Person and by the Trustee if the offeror is an Interested Person and the offer is less than the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer will not be permitted to sell the related Mortgage Loan together with the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) if it becomes a defaulted Whole Loan without the written consent of the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (provided that such consent is not required if the holder of the Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan is the Mortgagor or an Affiliate of the Mortgagor) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan: (a) at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell such Serviced Whole Loan; (b) at least ten (10) days prior to the permitted sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent appraisal for such Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, and any documents in the servicing file reasonably requested by the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Directing Certificateholder) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale. The holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (or its representative) will be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of such Whole Loan; however, the related Mortgagor and its agents and Affiliates shall not be permitted to submit an offer at such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the holder of the related Companion Loan may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this paragraph with respect to the related Whole Loan. If the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage Loan. The Trustee shall act in a commercially reasonable manner in making such determination. If the Trustee designates such a third party to

  -248-  

 

make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person and the Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person.

(e)               (i) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, with respect to each Serviced AB Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, the related Subordinate Companion Holder will have the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, as applicable. Such right of such Subordinate Companion Holder shall be given priority over any provision described in this Section 3.16 as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. If the related Mortgage Loan or related REO Property is purchased by such Subordinate Companion Holder, repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or otherwise ceases to be subject to this Agreement, the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan will no longer be subject to this Agreement.

(ii)                              Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, any mezzanine lender will have the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property, as applicable, and cure defaults relating thereto, as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(f)                Unless otherwise provided in an Intercreditor Agreement the sale of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.16 will be on a servicing released basis.

(g)               In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has the right to purchase any Companion Loan on behalf of the Trust pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall exercise such right.

Section 3.17        Additional Obligations of Master Servicer and Special Servicer. (a) The Master Servicer shall deliver all Compensating Interest Payments with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan) to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on each P&I Advance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Master Servicer shall deliver the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan to the Companion Paying Agent for deposit in the Companion Distribution Account on each P&I Advance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor.

(b)               The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to each applicable Companion Holder any reports or notices required to be delivered to such Companion Holder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement.

  -249-  

 

(c)               Upon the determination that a previously made Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, to the extent that the reimbursement thereof would exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on the Mortgage Loans deposited in the Collection Account and available for distribution on the next Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, each at its own option and in its sole discretion, as applicable, instead of obtaining reimbursement for the remaining amount of such Nonrecoverable Advance pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(v) immediately, as an accommodation may elect to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement for such portion of the Nonrecoverable Advance during the one month collection period ending on then-current Determination Date, for successive one-month periods for a total period not to exceed twelve (12) months (provided that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, any such deferral exceeding six (6) months shall require, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the consent of the Directing Certificateholder), and any election to so defer or not to defer shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes such an election at its sole option and in its sole discretion to defer reimbursement with respect to all or a portion of a Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon), then such Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon) or portion thereof shall continue to be fully reimbursable in the subsequent collection period (subject, again, to the same sole option to defer; it is acknowledged that, in such a subsequent period, such Nonrecoverable Advance shall again be payable first from principal collections as described above prior to payment from other collections). In connection with a potential election by the Master Servicer or the Trustee to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof during the Collection Period for any Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall further be authorized to wait for principal collections on the Mortgage Loans serviced by the Master Servicer to be received until the end of such Collection Period before making its determination of whether to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof; provided, however, that if, at any time the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, elects, in its sole discretion, not to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement or otherwise determines that the reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance during a Collection Period will exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on or in respect of Mortgage Loans deposited in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall use its reasonable efforts to give the 17g-5 Information Provider fifteen (15) days’ notice of such determination for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), unless extraordinary circumstances make such notice impractical, which shall mean that (i) the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines in its sole discretion that waiting fifteen (15) days after such a notice could jeopardize its ability to recover such Nonrecoverable Advance, (ii) changed circumstances or new or different information becomes known to the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, that could affect or cause a determination of whether any Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance or whether to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance or the determination in clause (i) above, or (iii) in the case of the Master Servicer, it has not timely received from the Trustee information required by the Master Servicer to determine whether to defer reimbursement for a Nonrecoverable Advance. If any of the circumstances described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the foregoing sentence apply, the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, shall give the 17g-5 Information Provider a notice for posting of the anticipated reimbursement as soon as reasonably practicable.

  -250-  

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, failure to give notice as required by the preceding or second preceding sentence shall in no way affect the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s election whether to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement or right to obtain such reimbursement as described in this Section 3.17(c). Nothing herein shall give the Master Servicer or the Trustee the right to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance to the extent of any principal collections then available in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(v). The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have no liability for any loss, liability or expenses resulting from any notice provided to the Rating Agencies contemplated by this Section 3.17(c).

The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to limit any liability that may otherwise be imposed on such Person for any failure by such Person to comply with the conditions to making such an election under this Section 3.17(c) or to comply with the terms of this Section 3.17(c) and the other provisions of this Agreement that apply once such an election, if any, has been made; provided, however, that the fact that a decision to recover such Nonrecoverable Advances over time, or not to do so, benefits some classes of Certificateholders to the detriment of other classes shall not, with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard and/or with respect to the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), constitute a violation of any fiduciary duty to Certificateholders or any contractual obligation hereunder. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines, in its sole discretion, to fully recover the Nonrecoverable Advances immediately instead of deferring such reimbursement, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from all amounts in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date (deemed first from principal and then interest). Any such election by any such party to refrain from reimbursing itself or obtaining reimbursement for any Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof with respect to any one or more collection periods shall not limit the accrual of interest at the Reimbursement Rate on such Nonrecoverable Advance for the period prior to the actual reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance. The Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as the case may be, agreement to defer reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advances as set forth above is an accommodation to the Certificateholders and shall not be construed as an obligation on the part of the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, or a right of the Certificateholders. Nothing herein shall be deemed to create in the Certificateholders a right to prior payment of distributions over the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, right to reimbursement for Advances (deferred or otherwise) and accrued interest thereon. In all events, the decision to defer reimbursement or to seek immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and none of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the other parties to this Agreement shall have any liability to one another or to any of the Certificateholders or any of the Companion Holders for any such election that such party makes as contemplated by this Section 3.17(c) or for any losses, damages or other adverse economic or other effects that may arise from such an election, nor shall such election constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard or any duty under this Agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall have any liability whatsoever for making an election, or refraining from making an election, that is authorized under this Section 3.17(c).

No determination by the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) to exercise its sole option to defer the reimbursement of Advances and/or interest thereon under this section shall be construed as an agreement by the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) to

  -251-  

 

subordinate (in respect of realizing losses), to any Class of Certificates, such party’s right to such reimbursement during such period of deferral.

With respect to any modification or amendment of any Intercreditor Agreement related to a Serviced Whole Loan (to the extent received), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to the 17g-5 Information Provider a copy of any such modification or amendment, which the 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly post on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

(d)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), if the related loan documents permit the lender to (but do not require the lender to), at its option, prior to an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), apply amounts held in any reserve account as a prepayment or hold such amounts in a reserve account, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may not apply such amounts as a prepayment, and will instead continue to hold such amounts in the applicable reserve account, unless not applying those amounts as a prepayment would be a violation of the Servicing Standard. Such amount may be used, if permitted under the loan documents, to defease the loan, or may be used to prepay the Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), or for other purpose consistent with the Servicing Standard and the loan documents, upon a subsequent default.

(e)               Within one (1) Business Day after the execution of any amendment or modification of any Intercreditor Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide to the Certificate Administrator a copy of any such modification or amendment of any Intercreditor Agreement, and such amendment or modification shall be a Reportable Event.

Section 3.18        Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents. (a) The Special Servicer shall process waivers, modifications, amendments and consents with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and all such matters that involve a Major Decision for all Mortgage Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) that are Non-Specially Serviced Loans, and the Master Servicer shall process waivers, modifications, amendments and consents with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that, in either case, is not a Specially Serviced Loan and does not involve a Major Decision. The Master Servicer and Special Servicer may mutually agree that a modification, waiver, amendment or consent that constitutes a Major Decision shall be processed by the Master Servicer, subject to the Special Servicer’s consent. Except as set forth in Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b), this Section 3.18(a), Section 3.18(d), Section 3.18(h), Section 3.18(i), Section 3.18(m) and Section 6.08, but subject to any other conditions set forth thereunder and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or any Serviced Whole Loan (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, subject to the rights of the related Companion Holder, as applicable, to advise or consult with the Master Servicer or Special Servicer with respect to, or to consent to, a modification, waiver or amendment, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement), the Special Servicer shall not modify, waive or amend the terms of a Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan (and the Special Servicer shall not consent to any such modification, waiver or amendment by the Master Servicer) that would constitute a Major Decision without (x) (i) prior to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing

  -252-  

 

Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, the consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder having been obtained by the Special Servicer to the extent required by, and pursuant to the process described under, Section 6.08(a), (y) (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Special Servicer having consulted with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) or (z) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer having consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a); and provided, further, that no extension entered into pursuant to this Section 3.18(a) shall extend the Maturity Date beyond the earlier of (i) five (5) years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and (ii) in the case of a Mortgage Loan secured solely or primarily by a leasehold estate and not also the related fee interest, the date twenty (20) years or, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard giving due consideration to the remaining term of the Ground Lease, ten (10) years, prior to the expiration of such leasehold estate. If such extension would extend the Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan for more than twelve (12) months from and after the original Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan and such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable, prior to any such extension, (1) the Special Servicer shall provide the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Directing Certificateholder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party), with an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if not required or permitted to be paid by the Mortgagor, to be paid as an expense of the Trust in accordance with Section 3.11(d)) that such extension would not constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and (2) subject to the Servicing Standard, (x) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer shall obtain the consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder, (y) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, consult with the Directing Certificateholder and (z) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer having consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to the process described in Section 6.08(a).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the rights of the related Companion Holder to advise the Master Servicer with respect to, or consent to, such modification, waiver or amendment pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, the Master Servicer, with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, without the consent of the Special Servicer or the Directing Certificateholder, may modify or amend the terms of any Non-Specially Serviced Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan in order to (i) cure any ambiguity or mistake therein or (ii) correct or supplement any provisions therein which may be inconsistent with any other provisions therein or correct any error; provided that, if the Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-

  -253-  

 

Serviced Mortgage Loan) and/or related Serviced Companion Loan is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable, such modification or amendment would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

Subject to Section 6.08, applicable law and the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan documents, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall permit the substitution of any Mortgaged Property (or any portion thereof) for one or more other parcels of real property at any time the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan is not in default pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan documents or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable unless (i) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, obtains Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (and delivers such Rating Agency Confirmation to the Directing Certificateholder, if permitted by the applicable Rating Agency) and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) and (ii) such substitution would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) or otherwise cause an Adverse REMIC Event (and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may obtain and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor if not prohibited by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents, and if so prohibited, at the expense of the Trust) with respect thereto).

Upon receiving a request for any matter described in this Section 3.18(a) that constitutes a Major Decision with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall forward such request to the Special Servicer and, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request, the Special Servicer shall process such request (including, without limitation, interfacing with the Mortgagor) and, except as provided in the next sentence, the Master Servicer shall have no further obligation with respect to such request or such Major Decision. With respect to such request, the Master Servicer shall continue to cooperate with the Special Servicer by delivering any additional information in the Master Servicer’s possession to the Special Servicer requested by the Special Servicer relating to such Major Decision. The Master Servicer shall not be required to interface with the Mortgagor or provide a written recommendation and/or analysis with respect to any Major Decision. If the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer will (subject to the consent (or deemed consent) of the Special Servicer) process a request with respect to a Major Decision and the Master Servicer is recommending approval of such request, the Master Servicer will prepare and submit its written analysis and recommendation to the Special Servicer with all information in the possession of the Master Servicer that the Special Servicer may reasonably request in order to withhold or grant its consent, and in all cases the Special Servicer will be entitled (subject to any applicable consultation rights of the Operating Advisor or any applicable consent or consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder or any applicable consultation rights of any related Companion Holders) to approve or disapprove any modification, waiver, amendment or other action that constitutes a Major Decision. In addition,

  -254-  

 

the Master Servicer shall provide the Special Servicer with any notice that it receives relating to a default by the Mortgagor under a Ground Lease where the collateral for the Mortgage Loan is the Ground Lease, and the Special Servicer will determine in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether the Trust as lender should cure any Mortgagor defaults relating to Ground Leases. Any costs relating to any such cure of a Mortgagor default relating to a Ground Lease shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance.

Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall enter into, or structure (including, without limitation, by way of the application of credits, discounts, forgiveness or otherwise), any modification, waiver, amendment, work-out, consent or approval with respect to a Mortgage Loan in a manner that would have the effect of placing amounts payable as compensation, or otherwise reimbursable, to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer in a higher priority than the allocation and payment priorities set forth in Section 3.02(b) or in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(b)               If the Special Servicer determines that a modification, waiver or amendment (including, without limitation, the forgiveness or deferral of interest or principal or the substitution of collateral pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and/or related Serviced Companion Loan or otherwise, the release of collateral or the pledge of additional collateral) of the terms of a Specially Serviced Loan with respect to which a payment default or other material default has occurred or a payment default or other material default is, in the Special Servicer’s judgment, reasonably foreseeable (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Special Servicer), is reasonably likely to produce a greater (or equivalent) recovery on a net present value basis (the relevant discounting to be performed at the related Mortgage Rate) to the Trust and, if applicable, the Companion Holders, as the holders of the related Serviced Companion Loan, than liquidation of such Specially Serviced Loan, then the Special Servicer may agree to a modification, waiver or amendment of such Specially Serviced Loan, subject to (w) the provisions of this Section 3.18(b) and Section 3.18(c), (x) the approval of the Directing Certificateholder with respect to any Major Decision, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than any Excluded Loan as to such party (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event or after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, upon consultation with the Directing Certificateholder) as provided in Section 6.08, (y) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, consultation with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) and (z) additionally, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the rights of the related Serviced Companion Noteholder or with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) with mezzanine debt, the rights of the related mezzanine lender, to advise or consult with the Special Servicer with respect to, or consent to, such modification, waiver or amendment, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement; provided that with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder will be required to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement and the Directing Certificateholder shall have no consent or consultation rights regarding the matter; provided, further, that in the case of any release or substitution of collateral (other than a defeasance), the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel that such release or substitution would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) or otherwise cause an Adverse

  -255-  

 

REMIC Event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with (i) the release of a Mortgaged Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or any portion of such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage or (ii) the taking of a Mortgaged Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or any portion of such Mortgaged Property by exercise of the power of eminent domain or condemnation, if the related Mortgage Loan documents require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to calculate (or to approve the calculation of the related Mortgagor of) the loan-to-value ratio of the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties or the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, for purposes of REMIC qualification of the related Mortgage Loan, then such calculation shall, unless then permitted by the provisions of the REMIC Provisions, exclude the value of personal property and going concern value, if any, as determined by an appropriate third party.

If, following any such release or taking, the loan-to-value ratio as calculated is greater than 125%, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall require payment of principal by a “qualified amount” as determined under Revenue Procedure 2010-30 or successor provisions, unless the related Mortgagor provides an Opinion of Counsel that if such amount is not paid, the related Mortgage Loan will not fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code.

The Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to the extent possible to cause each Specially Serviced Loan to fully amortize prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and shall not agree to a modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Specially Serviced Loan for which it is acting as special servicer if such modification, waiver or amendment would (1) extend the maturity date of any such Specially Serviced Loan to a date occurring later than the earlier of (a) five (5) years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and (b) if such Specially Serviced Loan is secured solely or primarily by a leasehold estate and not also the related fee interest, the date occurring twenty (20) years or, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard giving due consideration to the remaining term of the ground lease and (A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party) and (B) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, after consulting with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08, ten (10) years prior to the expiration of such leasehold estate (including any options to extend such leasehold estate exercisable unilaterally by the related Mortgagor), or (2) provide for the deferral of interest unless interest accrues on the related Mortgage Loan, or Serviced Whole Loan generally at the related Mortgage Rate.

  -256-  

 

(c)               Any provision of this Section 3.18 to the contrary notwithstanding, except when a Mortgage Loan and/or Companion Loan is in default or default with respect thereto is reasonably foreseeable, no fee described in this Section 3.18 shall be collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer from a Mortgagor (or on behalf of the Mortgagor) in conjunction with any consent or any modification, waiver or amendment of a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable (unless the amount thereof is specified in the related Mortgage Note) if the collection of such fee would cause such consent, modification, waiver or amendment to be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Note within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

(d)               To the extent consistent with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the first sentence of Section 3.18(a), and Section 6.08), the Master Servicer (as provided in Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b) and Section 3.18 if such matter constitutes a Master Servicer Decision) or the Special Servicer (as provided in Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b) and Section 3.18(a) if any such waiver, modification or amendment constitutes a Major Decision or relates to a Specially Serviced Loan) may, consistent with the Servicing Standard, agree to any waiver, modification or amendment of a Mortgage Loan and/or Serviced Companion Loan that is not in default or as to which default is not reasonably foreseeable only if the contemplated waiver, modification or amendment (i) will not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and (ii) will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event. In making this determination, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may obtain and rely upon (and shall provide to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator if obtained) an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor or such other Person requesting such modification or, if such expense cannot be collected from the related Mortgagor or such other Person, to be paid out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a); provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall use its reasonable efforts to collect such fee from the Mortgagor or such other Person to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer may waive the payment of any Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge or the requirement that any prepayment of a Mortgage Loan be made on a Due Date, or if not made on a Due Date, be accompanied by all interest that would be due on the next Due Date with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan.

(e)               Subject to Section 3.18(c), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each may, as a condition to its granting any request by a Mortgagor for consent, modification (including extensions), waiver or indulgence or any other matter or thing, the granting of which is within the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, discretion pursuant to the terms of the instruments evidencing or securing the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan and is permitted by the terms of this Agreement, require that such Mortgagor pay to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, as additional servicing compensation, a reasonable or customary fee, for the additional services performed in connection with such request; provided that the charging of such fee is not a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

(f)                All modifications (including extensions), waivers and amendments of the Mortgage Loans and/or Companion Loans entered into pursuant to this Section 3.18 shall be in

  -257-  

 

writing, signed by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and the related Mortgagor (and by any guarantor of the related Mortgage Loan, if such guarantor’s signature is required by the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard).

(g)               With respect to any modification, waiver or amendment for which it is responsible for processing pursuant to Section 3.18, the Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor (after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), the Directing Certificateholder (other than (i) following the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party), the applicable Companion Holder (or, to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the applicable master servicer under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement) (unless, with respect to a holder of an AB Subordinate Companion Loan, an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred and is continuing, if applicable), the related Mortgage Loan Seller (if such Mortgage Loan Seller is not the Master Servicer or Sub-Servicer of such Mortgage Loan or the Directing Certificateholder) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) in writing of any modification, waiver or amendment (in each case, after it is finalized and executed) of any term of any Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan that is modified, waived or amended and the date thereof. With respect to any modification, waiver or amendment (in each case, after it is finalized and executed) for which it is responsible for processing pursuant to Section 3.18, the Master Servicer shall provide written notice of any such modification, waiver or amendment to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to an Excluded Loan as to such party), the applicable Companion Holder (or, to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the applicable master servicer under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement) (unless, with respect to a holder of an AB Subordinate Companion Loan, an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred and is continuing, if applicable) and the related Mortgage Loan Seller (so long as such Mortgage Loan Seller is not the Master Servicer or Sub-Servicer of such Mortgage Loan or the Directing Certificateholder) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)). The party responsible for delivering notice shall deliver to the Custodian with a copy to the Master Servicer (if such notice is being delivered by the Special Servicer) for deposit in the related Mortgage File, an original counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver or amendment, promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) following the execution thereof, with a copy to the applicable Companion Holder (or, to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the applicable master servicer under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement), if any. Following receipt of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, delivery of the aforesaid modification, waiver or amendment to the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Administrator shall forward a copy thereof to each Holder of a Certificate (other than the Class R Certificates). With respect to any modification, waiver or consent that is a Master Servicer Decision pursuant to clause (iv) of the definition of “Master Servicer Decision”, if the related lease affects an area greater than or equal to 10% of the related Mortgaged Property and less than 30% of the net rentable area of the related Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer shall deliver or make available to the Special Servicer a copy of the approved lease. With respect to any

In the event that either (i) the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package is amended to include such information set forth above, in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and the Master Servicer confirms with the Certificate Administrator that such amended CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package enables the Certificate Administrator to include such information on Form 10-D in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Administrator, or (ii) the Trust is no longer subject to the Exchange Act, the additional report in the form of Exhibit KK shall no longer be required hereunder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not permit (or, with regard to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, take any act in furtherance of) the substitution of any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan unless such defeasance complies with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) and the Master Servicer has received (i) replacement collateral consisting of government securities within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), which satisfies the requirements of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents, in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the related Mortgage Loan (or defeased portion thereof) when due, (ii) a certificate of an Independent certified public accountant to the effect that such substituted property will provide cash flows sufficient to meet all payments of interest and principal (including payments at maturity) on such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan in compliance with the requirements of the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, (iii) one or more Opinions of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor) to the effect that the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, will have a first priority perfected security interest

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that requiring the Mortgagor to pay for the items specified in clauses (ii), (iv) and (v) in the preceding sentence would be inconsistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents, such reasonable costs shall be paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller as and to the extent set forth in the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

(i)                 Notwithstanding anything herein or in the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, to the contrary, the Master Servicer may permit the substitution of “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) for any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable (or any portion thereof), in lieu of the defeasance collateral specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents or Serviced Whole Loan documents, as applicable; provided that such substitution is consistent with the Servicing Standard and the Master Servicer reasonably determines that allowing their use would not cause a default or event of default to become reasonably foreseeable and the Master Servicer receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable or Companion Loan documents or otherwise as a Trust Fund expense) to the effect that such use would not be and would not constitute a “significant modification” of such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and would not otherwise constitute an Adverse REMIC Event with respect to any Trust REMIC; and provided, further, that the requirements set forth in Section 3.18(h) (including receipt of any Rating Agency Confirmation) are satisfied; and provided, further, that such securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, or the Master Servicer shall obtain Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Master Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Defeasance Account for a period in excess of ninety (90) days, unless such amounts are reinvested by the Master Servicer in “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii). To the extent not required or permitted to be placed in a separate account, the Master Servicer shall deposit all payments received by it from defeasance collateral substituted for any Mortgaged Property into the Collection Account and treat any such payments as payments made on the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan in advance of its Due Date in accordance with clause (a)(i) of the definition of “Available Funds” and not as a prepayment of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan.

The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all documents and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan, either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise available to the Master Servicer without undue burden or expense, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its functions hereunder with respect thereto.

Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to each Controlling Class Certificateholder a copy of the notice of such Servicing Transfer Event provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.19.

Upon determining that a Specially Serviced Loan (other than an REO Loan) has become current and has remained current for three (3) consecutive Periodic Payments (provided that (i) no additional Servicing Transfer Event is foreseeable in the reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, and (ii) for such purposes taking into account any modification or amendment of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan), and that no other Servicing Transfer Event is continuing with respect thereto, the Special Servicer shall promptly give notice thereof to the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (unless with respect to an AB Subordinate Companion Loan an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred and is continuing) and the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to the Directing Certificateholder, (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party) and shall return the related Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Master Servicer (or copies thereof if copies only were delivered to the Special Servicer) and upon giving such notice, and returning such Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer’s obligation to service such Corrected Loan shall terminate and the obligations of the Master Servicer to service and administer such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan shall recommence.

(c)               Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.12(c), the Master Servicer shall maintain ongoing payment records with respect to each of the Specially Serviced Loans, Serviced Companion Loans and REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and shall provide the Special Servicer with any information in its possession with respect to such records to enable the Special Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement; provided that this statement shall not be construed to require the Master Servicer to produce any additional reports.

(d)               No later than sixty (60) days after a Servicing Transfer Event for a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan (the “Initial Delivery Date”), the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format a report (the “Asset Status Report”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan and related Companion Loan, if applicable, and the related Mortgaged Property to the Master Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (but with respect to the Directing Certificateholder, only in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than (A) any Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder or (B) any Serviced AB Whole Loan for so long as no AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred and is continuing, and in any event prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), the Operating Advisor (but only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) and, with respect to any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the related Companion Holder or, to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the applicable master servicer of such Other Securitization into which the related Serviced Companion Loan has been sold; the Special Servicer shall also deliver a summary of each Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Administrator shall post the summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Subsequent to the issuance of a Final Asset Status Report to the extent that during the course of the resolution of such Specially Serviced Loan material changes in the strategy reflected in the initial Final Asset Status Report (or subsequent Final Asset Status Reports) are necessary to reflect the then current circumstances and recommendation as to how the Specially Serviced Loan might be returned to performing status or otherwise liquidated in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall prepare one or more additional Asset Status Reports with respect to such Specially Serviced Loan (each such report a “Subsequent Asset Status Report”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer shall not make any Asset Status Reports available to any Certificateholders on its website. None of the parties to this Agreement shall provide any Asset Status Report or any Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator. The Special Servicer shall notify the Operating Advisor of whether any Asset Status Report delivered to the Operating Advisor is a Final Asset Status Report, which notification may be satisfied by (i) delivery of an Asset Status Report that is either signed by the Directing Certificateholder or that otherwise includes an indication that such Asset Status Report is deemed approved due to the passage of any required consent or consultation time period or (ii) such other method as reasonably agreed to by the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer. Further, the Certificate Administrator shall not request any Asset Status Report or Final Asset Status Report from the Master Servicer. Such Asset Status Report shall set forth the following information to the extent reasonably determinable based on the information that was delivered to the Special Servicer in connection with the transfer of servicing pursuant to the Servicing Transfer Event:

(viii)                   an analysis of whether or not taking such proposed action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a present value basis than not taking such action, setting forth (x) the basis on which the Special Servicer made such determination and (y) the net present value calculation and all related assumptions;

(x)                              such other information as the Special Servicer deems relevant in light of the Servicing Standard.

If within ten (10) Business Days of receiving an Asset Status Report, the Directing Certificateholder does not disapprove such Asset Status Report in writing or if the Special Servicer

  -268-  

 

makes a determination, in accordance with the Servicing Standard that the disapproval by the Directing Certificateholder (communicated to the Special Servicer within ten (10) Business Days) is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan), the Special Servicer shall implement the recommended action as outlined in such Asset Status Report; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may not take any action that is contrary to applicable law, the Servicing Standard or the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents. If, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder disapproves such Asset Status Report within ten (10) Business Days of receipt and the Special Servicer has not made the affirmative determination described above, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report and deliver a new Asset Status Report as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after such disapproval, to the Master Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and during an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan), the Operating Advisor (but only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)). With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report as described above in this Section 3.19(d) until the Directing Certificateholder shall fail to disapprove such revised Asset Status Report in writing within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such revised Asset Status Report or until the Special Servicer makes a determination, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that the disapproval is not in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan); provided that, if the Directing Certificateholder has not approved the Asset Status Report for a period of sixty (60) Business Days following the first submission of an Asset Status Report, the Special Servicer, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, shall act pursuant to the Directing Certificateholder’s direction, if consistent with Servicing Standard, provided, however, that if the Directing Certificateholder’s direction would be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer may act upon the most recently submitted form of Asset Status Report; and provided, however, that such Asset Status Report does not, and is not intended to be, a substitute for the approvals that are specifically required pursuant to Section 6.08. The procedures described in this paragraph are collectively referred to herein as the “Directing Certificateholder Approval Process”. Prior to the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall deliver each Final Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor promptly following the conclusion of the Directing Certificateholder Approval Process.

The Special Servicer may, from time to time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered and implement such report; provided that such report shall have been prepared, reviewed and not rejected pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.19(d). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing

  -269-  

 

Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with an Asset Status Report for an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class that includes a Major Decision and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

No direction or disapproval of the Directing Certificateholder hereunder or under a related Intercreditor Agreement or failure of the Directing Certificateholder to consent to or approve (including any deemed consents or approvals) any request of the Special Servicer, shall (a) require or cause the Special Servicer to violate the terms of a Specially Serviced Loan, applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, including the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to maintain the REMIC status of each Trust REMIC and the grantor trust status of the Grantor Trust, or (b) result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions, or (c) expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or their respective officers, directors, members, employees or agents to any claim, suit or liability or (d) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, the Trustee’s or the Master Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

If an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing (or, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, if both an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing and an AB Control Appraisal Period is in effect), the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver each Asset Status Report prepared in connection with a Specially Serviced Loan to the Operating Advisor (and for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to an Excluded Loan as to such party)). Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor’s review of a Final Asset Status Report shall only provide background information to support the Operating Advisor’s duties concerning the Special Servicer’s compliance with the Servicing Standard, and the Operating Advisor shall not provide comments to the Special Servicer in respect of such Final Asset Status Report. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall provide comments to the Special Servicer in respect of the Asset Status Report, if any, within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) receipt of such Asset Status Report or (ii) receipt of such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor related thereto, and propose possible alternative courses of action to the extent it determines such alternatives to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders (including any Certificateholders that are holders of the Control Eligible Certificates), as a collective whole. The Special Servicer shall consider such alternative courses of action and any other feedback provided by the Operating Advisor (and so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred, the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to an Excluded Loan as to such party)) in connection with the Special Servicer’s preparation of any Asset Status Report. The Special Servicer shall revise the Asset Status Report as it deems necessary to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor (and so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to an Excluded Loan as to such party)), to the extent the

  -270-  

 

Special Servicer determines that the Operating Advisor’s and/or Directing Certificateholder’s input and/or recommendations are consistent with the Servicing Standard and in the best interest of the Certificateholders as a collective whole (or, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the best interest of the Certificateholders and the holders of the related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of such Companion Loan)).

Promptly upon determining whether or not to revise any Asset Status Report to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder, the Special Servicer shall revise the Asset Status Report, if applicable (but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder), and deliver to the Operating Advisor and the Directing Certificateholder the revised Asset Status Report (until a Final Asset Status Report is issued) or notice that the Special Servicer has decided not to revise such Asset Status Report, as applicable. The procedures described in this and the immediately preceding paragraph are collectively referred to as the “ASR Consultation Process”.

After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class), the Directing Certificateholder shall have no right to consent to any Asset Status Report under this Section 3.19. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder (except with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party) may consult with the Special Servicer and propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback in respect of any Asset Status Report. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event the Operating Advisor shall consult with the Special Servicer and propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback in respect of any Asset Status Report. The Directing Certificateholder (other than in its capacity as a Certificateholder) (in each case, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party)), shall have no right to receive any Asset Status Report or otherwise consult with the Special Servicer with respect to Asset Status Reports and the Special Servicer shall only be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor with respect to any Asset Status Report as described above. The Special Servicer may choose to revise the Asset Status Report as it deems reasonably necessary in accordance with the Servicing Standard to take into account any input and/or recommendations of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder during the applicable periods described above, but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to an AB Subordinate Companion Loan, the Special Servicer shall prepare an Asset Status Report for any Serviced AB Whole Loan, upon it becoming a Specially Serviced Loan pursuant to this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, but the Directing Certificateholder will have no approval rights over any such Asset Status Report, and the consent or approval rights with respect to such Asset Status Report shall be as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

  -271-  

 

The consent and consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder and the Operating Advisor with respect to Asset Status Reports are subject to the provisions of Section 6.08.

(e)               (i) Upon receiving notice of the occurrence of the events described in clause (iv) or (ix) of the definition of Servicing Transfer Event (without regard to the 60-day or 30-day period, respectively, set forth therein), the Master Servicer shall with reasonable promptness give notice thereof, and shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information relating to the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to negotiate with the related Mortgagor. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the occurrence of each such event.

(ii)                              After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, upon receiving notice of the occurrence of an event described in clause (iv) or (x) of the definition of Servicing Transfer Event (without regard to the 60-day or 30-day period, respectively, set forth therein), the Master Servicer shall deliver notice thereof to the Operating Advisor at the same time such notice is provided to the Special Servicer pursuant to clause (i) above.

(f)                Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, no later than five (5) Business Days following the establishment of a Final Asset Status Report with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format to the Directing Certificateholder (other than any Excluded Loan with respect to such party) a draft notice that will include a draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report (which briefly summarizes such Final Asset Status Report, but shall not include any Privileged Information) (and shall deliver each Asset Status Report with respect to a Serviced AB Mortgage Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period (to the extent approved by the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder), to the Directing Certificateholder). With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, if, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such draft summary, the Directing Certificateholder approves of, or does not disapprove of such draft summary, then the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format such notice and summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b). If the Directing Certificateholder affirmatively disapproves of such summary in writing, then within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such disapproval, the Special Servicer shall revise the summary and deliver such new summary to the Directing Certificateholder until the Directing Certificateholder approves such draft summary; provided, however, that if the Directing Certificateholder has not approved of the draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report within twenty (20) Business Days of receipt of the initial draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report, then the most recent draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report delivered by the Special Servicer prior to such twentieth (20^th) Business Day shall be deemed to be the final summary of the Final Asset Status Report; provided, further, however, that if at any time the Special Servicer determines that any affirmative disapproval of such draft summary by the Directing Certificateholder is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking

  -272-  

 

into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan), pursuant to the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format such notice and summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) notwithstanding such disapproval. The Special Servicer shall promptly deliver (but in any event no later than five (5) Business Days following its completion) a copy of each Final Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor. The Special Servicer shall prepare a summary of any Final Asset Status Report related to any Serviced AB Whole Loan for which the related holder of an AB Subordinate Companion Loan is not then subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period, which Final Asset Status Report has been approved or deemed approved by the holder of the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent such Intercreditor Agreement requires such approval or deemed approval), and deliver in electronic format notice of such Final Asset Status Report and the summary of such Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b).

(g)               No provision of this Section 3.19 shall require the Special Servicer to take or to refrain from taking any action because of any proposal, objection or comment by the Operating Advisor or a recommendation of the Operating Advisor.

Section 3.20        Sub-Servicing Agreements. (a) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements to provide for the performance by third parties of any or all of its respective obligations hereunder; provided that the Sub-Servicing Agreement as amended or modified: (i) is consistent with this Agreement in all material respects and requires the Sub-Servicer to comply with all of the applicable conditions of this Agreement; (ii) provides that if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall for any reason no longer act in such capacity hereunder (including, without limitation, by reason of a Servicer Termination Event), the Trustee or its designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and, except to the extent they arose prior to the date of assumption, obligations of such party under such agreement, or, alternatively, may act in accordance with Section 7.02 under the circumstances described therein (subject to Section 3.20(g)); (iii) provides that the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holder (if applicable)) and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) shall be a third party beneficiary under such Sub-Servicing Agreement, but that (except to the extent the Trustee or its designee assumes the obligations of such party thereunder as contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (ii)) none of the Trust, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable (other than the Master Servicer or Special Servicer that enters into such Sub-Servicing Agreement), any successor master servicer or successor special servicer or any Certificateholder (or the related Companion Holder, if applicable) shall have any duties under such Sub-Servicing Agreement or any liabilities arising therefrom; (iv) permits any purchaser of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement with respect to such purchased Mortgage Loan at its option and without penalty; provided, however, that the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreements may only be terminated by the Trustee or its designees as contemplated by Section 3.20(g) and in such additional manner and by such other Persons as is provided in such Sub-Servicing Agreement; (v) does not permit the Sub-Servicer any direct rights of indemnification that may be satisfied out of assets of the Trust except through the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, if and only to the extent provided pursuant to Section 6.04; (vi) does not permit the Sub-Servicer to modify any Mortgage Loan unless and to

  -273-  

 

the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is permitted hereunder to modify such Mortgage Loan; (vii) does not permit the Sub-Servicer to take any action constituting a Major Decision without the consent of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable (which consent shall not be granted except in accordance with Section 6.08); (viii) with respect to any Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into after the Closing Date, if such Sub-Servicer is a Servicing Function Participant or an Additional Servicer, such Sub-Servicer, at the time the related Sub-Servicing Agreement is entered into, is not a Prohibited Party; (ix) provides that the Sub-Servicer shall be in default under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement and such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be terminated (following the expiration of any applicable grace period) if the Sub-Servicer fails (A) to deliver by the due date any Exchange Act reporting items required to be delivered to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Depositor under Article XI or under the Sub-Servicing Agreement or to the master servicer under any other pooling and servicing agreement that the Depositor is a party to, or (B) to perform in any material respect any of its covenants or obligations contained in the Sub-Servicing Agreement regarding creating, obtaining or delivering any Exchange Act reporting items required for any party to this Agreement to perform its obligations under Article XI or under the Exchange Act reporting items required under any other pooling and servicing agreement that the Depositor is a party to; and (x) provides that such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be terminable if at any time the related Sub-Servicer (other than a Sub-Servicer retained by the Special Servicer) is a Risk Retention Affiliate of the Third Party Purchaser if such Sub-Servicer is a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2). Any successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as applicable, hereunder shall, upon becoming a successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as applicable, be assigned and may assume any Sub-Servicing Agreements from the predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be (subject to Section 3.20(g)). In addition, each Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Master Servicer may but need not provide that the obligations of the Sub-Servicer thereunder may terminate with respect to any Mortgage Loan serviced thereunder at the time such Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan; provided, however, that the Sub-Servicing Agreement may provide (if the Sub-Servicing Agreement provides for Advances by the Sub-Servicer, although it need not so provide) that the Sub-Servicer will continue to make all Advances and calculations and prepare all reports required under the Sub-Servicing Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and continue to collect its Primary Servicing Fees as if no Servicing Transfer Event had occurred and with respect to REO Properties (and the related REO Loans) as if no REO Acquisition had occurred and to render such incidental services with respect to such Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for in such Sub-Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments thereto and modifications thereof, entered into by it, in each case promptly upon its execution and delivery of such documents. References in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer include actions taken or to be taken by a Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer; and, in connection therewith, all amounts advanced by any Sub-Servicer (if the Sub-Servicing Agreement provides for Advances by the Sub-Servicer, although it need not so provide) to satisfy the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder to make Advances shall be deemed to have been advanced by the Master Servicer out of its own funds and, accordingly, in such event, such Advances shall be recoverable by such Sub-Servicer in the same manner and out of the same funds as if such Sub-Servicer were the Master Servicer, and, for so long as they are outstanding, such Advances shall accrue interest in accordance with Section 3.03(d), such interest to be allocable

  -274-  

 

between the Master Servicer and such Sub-Servicer as may be provided (if at all) pursuant to the terms of the Sub-Servicing Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have received any payment when a Sub-Servicer retained by it receives such payment. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Trustee and the Depositor (and the Special Servicer shall notify the Operating Advisor) in writing promptly of the appointment by it of any Sub-Servicer, except that the Master Servicer need not provide such notice as to the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreements.

(b)               Each Sub-Servicer shall be authorized to transact business in the state or states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to the extent necessary to ensure the enforceability of the related Mortgage Loans or the compliance with its obligations under the Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement.

(c)               As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall (at no expense to the Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Trust) monitor the performance and enforce the obligations of each of its Sub-Servicers under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, except that the Master Servicer shall be required only to use reasonable efforts to cause any Initial Sub-Servicer to comply with the requirements of Article XI. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements in accordance with their respective terms and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as is in accordance with the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer shall have the right to remove a Sub-Servicer retained by it pursuant to the terms of the related Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(d)               In the event the Trustee or its designee becomes a successor master servicer and assumes the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under any Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer, at its expense, shall deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to such Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans and, if applicable, the Companion Loans then being serviced thereunder and an accounting of amounts collected and held on behalf of it thereunder, and otherwise use reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub-Servicing Agreement to the assuming party.

(e)               Notwithstanding the provisions of any Sub-Servicing Agreement and this Section 3.20, except to the extent provided in Article XI with respect to the obligations of any Sub-Servicer that is an Initial Sub-Servicer, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and responsible to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, holders of the Companion Loans serviced hereunder and the Certificateholders for the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans for which it is responsible, and the Master Servicer shall pay the fees of any Sub-Servicer thereunder as and when due from its own funds. In no event shall the Trust bear any termination fee required to be paid to any Sub-Servicer as a result of such Sub-Servicer’s termination under any Sub-Servicing Agreement.

  -275-  

 

(f)                The Trustee, upon the request of the Master Servicer, shall furnish to any Sub-Servicer any documents necessary or appropriate to enable such Sub-Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under any Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(g)               Each Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide that, in the event the Trustee or any other Person becomes a successor master servicer, the Trustee or such successor master servicer shall have the right to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement with or without cause and without a fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other contrary provision in this Agreement, the Trustee and any successor master servicer shall assume each Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement and (i) the Initial Sub-Servicer’s rights and obligations under the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement shall expressly survive a termination of the Master Servicer’s servicing rights under this Agreement; provided that the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement has not been terminated in accordance with its provisions; (ii) any successor master servicer, including, without limitation, the Trustee (if it assumes the servicing obligations of the Master Servicer) shall be deemed to automatically assume and agree to the then-current Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement without further action upon becoming the successor master servicer and (iii) this Agreement may not be modified in any manner which would increase the obligations or limit the rights of the Initial Sub-Servicer hereunder and/or under the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Initial Sub-Servicer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(h)               With respect to Mortgage Loans subject to a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer shall, upon request (such request to be made reasonably in advance as appropriate to the circumstances surrounding such request) of the related Sub-Servicer, reasonably cooperate in delivering reports and information, including remittance information, and affording access to information to the related Sub-Servicer that would be required to be delivered or afforded, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof.

(i)                 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Special Servicer shall not enter into any Sub-Servicing Agreement that provides for the performance by third parties of any or all of its obligations herein, without, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, the consent of the Directing Certificateholder, except to the extent necessary for the Special Servicer to comply with applicable regulatory requirements.

(j)                 None of the Master Servicer or any Additional Servicer shall enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a Sub-Servicer that is a Risk Retention Affiliate of the Third Party Purchaser if such Sub-Servicer would be a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer, absent actual knowledge to the contrary, may conclusively rely upon a representation of any Sub-Servicer that such Sub-Servicer is not a Risk Retention Affiliate of the Third Party Purchaser. Notwithstanding the two preceding sentences, or anything herein to the contrary, it is acknowledged that no Initial Sub-Servicer is a Risk Retention Affiliate of the Third Party Purchaser as of the Closing Date. If at any time the Master Servicer obtains actual knowledge that a Sub-Servicer it has entered into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with, is a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2) and a Risk Retention Affiliate of the Third Party Purchaser, the Master Servicer shall terminate such Sub-Servicer in accordance with the related Sub-Servicing Agreement.

Section 3.21        Interest Reserve Account.

(a)               On the P&I Advance Date occurring in each February and in any January that occurs in a year that is not a leap year (in each case, unless the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator, in respect of the Actual/360 Mortgage Loans, shall deposit into the Interest Reserve Account, an amount equal to one (1) day’s interest on the Stated Principal Balance of the Actual/360 Mortgage Loans as of the Due Date occurring in the month preceding the month in which the P&I Advance Date occurs at the related Net Mortgage Rate, to the extent a full Periodic Payment or P&I Advance is made in respect thereof (all amounts so deposited in any consecutive February and January “Withheld Amounts”).

(b)               On each P&I Advance Date occurring in March (or February, if the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw, from the Interest Reserve Account an amount equal to the Withheld Amounts from the preceding January (if applicable) and February, if any, and deposit such amount into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account.

Within a reasonable time upon request from the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and no more often than on a monthly basis, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, without charge, make a knowledgeable Servicing Officer via telephone available to verbally answer questions from (a) the Directing Certificateholder ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party) and (b) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor (with respect to the Special Servicer only), regarding the performance and servicing of the Mortgage Loans and/or REO Properties for which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is responsible.

Section 3.23       Controlling Class Certificateholders, Directing Certificateholder; Certain Rights and Powers of Directing Certificateholder. (a) Each Controlling Class Certificateholder is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and to notify the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor of the transfer of any Certificate of a Controlling Class by delivering a notice to each such Person substantially in the form of Exhibit NN attached hereto, the selection of a Directing Certificateholder or the resignation or removal thereof. The Directing Certificateholder (other than the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to notify the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor when such Certificateholder is appointed Directing Certificateholder and when it is removed or resigns. To the extent there is only one Controlling Class Certificateholder and it is also the Special Servicer, it shall be the Directing Certificateholder.

On the Closing Date, the initial Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) shall execute and deliver to the parties to this Agreement a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1G to this Agreement. Upon the resignation or removal of the existing Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific Directing

  -277-  

 

Certificateholder), any successor directing certificateholder shall deliver to the parties to this Agreement a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1G to this Agreement prior to being recognized as the new Directing Certificateholder.

(b)               Once a Directing Certificateholder has been selected, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner, if applicable) shall be entitled to rely on such selection unless the Controlling Class Certificateholders entitled to appoint the Directing Certificateholder, by Certificate Balance, or such Directing Certificateholder shall have notified the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Controlling Class Certificateholder, in writing, of the resignation of such Directing Certificateholder or the selection of a new Directing Certificateholder. In the event that (i) the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor receives written notice from a majority of the Controlling Class Certificateholders that a Directing Certificateholder is no longer designated and (ii) the Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class (or a representative thereof) becomes the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to the proviso of the definition of “Directing Certificateholder”, then the Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class (or its representative) shall provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and notify the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor that it is the new Directing Certificateholder; provided that the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to rely on the written notification provided by the purported Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class without independently verifying that such Controlling Class Certificateholder actually owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class. The foregoing provisions shall not be applicable to the Directing Certificateholder that is a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder.

(c)               Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity of the Controlling Class Certificateholder and the Directing Certificateholder.

(d)               In the event that no Directing Certificateholder has been appointed or identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has attempted to obtain such information from the Certificate Administrator and no such entity has been identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, then until such time as the new Directing Certificateholder is identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have no duty to consult with, provide notice to, or seek the approval or consent of any such Directing Certificateholder as the case may be.

(e)               Upon request, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to the Depositor, Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder, a list of each Controlling Class Certificateholder as reflected in the Certificate Register, including

  -278-  

 

names and addresses. In addition to the foregoing, within five (5) Business Days of receiving notice of the selection of a new Directing Certificateholder or the existence of a new Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Eightfold Real Estate Capital, L.P. shall be the initial Directing Certificateholder (but not the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) and shall remain so until a successor is appointed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or until a Consultation Termination Event occurs and is continuing; provided that if such Directing Certificateholder resigns, there shall be no Directing Certificateholder until such time as one is appointed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Special Servicer or any other party under this Agreement shall not be required to consent or consult with, or provide notices or documents to, such Directing Certificateholder.

Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the preceding sentence with respect to the identity of the Directing Certificateholder.

(f)                If the Certificate Administrator determines that a Class of Book-Entry Certificates is the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the related Certificateholders of such Class (through the Depository) of the Class becoming the Controlling Class.

(g)               Each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Certificates, that: (i) the Directing Certificateholder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Certificates; (ii) the Directing Certificateholder may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class or in its own interest; (iii) the Directing Certificateholder does not have any liability or duties to the Holders of any Class of Certificates other than the Controlling Class (or in the case of the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder has no liabilities or duties to the Controlling Class or the Holders of any Class of Certificates); (iv) the Directing Certificateholder may take actions that favor interests of the Holders of one or more Classes including the Controlling Class or itself over the interests of the Holders of one or more other Classes of Certificates, or in the case of the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder, its own interests; and (v) the Directing Certificateholder shall have no liability whatsoever (other than to a Controlling Class Certificateholder; provided that the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder shall have no such liability) for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Directing Certificateholder or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal of the Directing Certificateholder for having so acted.

(h)               All requirements of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to provide notices, reports, statements or other information (including the access to information on a website) to the Directing Certificateholder contained in this Agreement shall also apply to each Companion Holder with respect to information relating to the related Serviced AB Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable; provided, however, that nothing in this subsection (h) shall in any way eliminate the obligation to deliver any information required to be delivered under the related Intercreditor Agreement.

  -279-  

 

(i)                 Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity and contact information of the Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Directing Certificateholder and any Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder.

(j)                 With respect to a Serviced Whole Loan and any approval and consent rights in this Agreement with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall exercise such rights in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(k)               The Certificate Registrar shall determine which Class of Certificates is then-current Controlling Class within two (2) Business Days of a request from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, or any Certificateholder and provide such information to the requesting party.

(l)                 [RESERVED].

(m)             Promptly upon its determination of a change in the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall (i) include on its statement made available pursuant to Section 4.02(a) of this Agreement the identity of the new Controlling Class and (ii) provide to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor notice of such event and the identity and contact information of the new Controlling Class Certificateholder (the cost of obtaining such information from DTC being an expense of the Trust). The Certificate Administrator shall notify the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer within ten (10) Business Days of the existence or cessation of (i) any Control Termination Event, (ii) any Consultation Termination Event or (iii) any Operating Advisor Consultation Event. Upon the Certificate Administrator’s determination that a Control Termination Event, a Consultation Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred or is terminated, the Certificate Administrator shall, within ten (10) Business Days, post a “special notice” on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to this provision. Any party hereto may at any time request from the Certificate Administrator written confirmation of whether there existed a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event during the preceding calendar year and the Certificate Administrator shall deliver such confirmation to such party within ten (10) days of such request.

In the event that a Control Termination Event has occurred due to a reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class E-RR Certificates (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of such Class in accordance with Section 4.05(a)) to less than 25% of the Original Certificate Balance thereof, such special notice shall state “A Control Termination Event has occurred due to the reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class E-RR Certificates to less than 25% of the Original Certificate Balance thereof.”

In the event that a Consultation Termination Event has occurred due to the reduction of each Class of Control Eligible Certificates below 25% of its Original Certificate Balance, in each case without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction

  -280-  

 

Amounts, such special notice shall state: “A Consultation Termination Event has occurred because no Class of Control Eligible Certificates exists where such Class’s aggregate Certificate Balance is at least equal to 25% of the Original Certificate Balance of that Class, in each case without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts.”

In the event that an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred due to the reduction of the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Horizontal Risk Retention Certificates to 25% or below of their aggregate Original Certificate Balance, taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts, such special notice shall state: “An Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred because the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Horizontal Risk Retention Certificates to 25% or below of their aggregate Original Certificate Balance.”

The Directing Certificateholder shall not have any consent or consultation rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan determined to be an Excluded Loan as to either the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class. Notwithstanding the proviso to each of the definitions of “Control Termination Event”, “Operating Advisor Consultation Event” and “Consultation Termination Event”, in either such case, in respect of the servicing of any such Excluded Loan, a Control Termination Event, Operating Advisor Consultation Event and Consultation Termination Event will be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Excluded Loan.

Section 3.24        Intercreditor Agreements. (a) The Master Servicer and Special Servicer acknowledges and agrees that each Serviced Whole Loan being serviced under this Agreement and each Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt is subject to the terms and provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement and each agrees to service each such Serviced Whole Loan, and each Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, including, without limitation, effecting distributions and allocating reimbursement of expenses in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement and, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, the related Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. Notwithstanding anything contrary in this Agreement, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer agree not to take any action with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, or a Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt or the related Mortgaged Property without the prior consent of the related Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, to the extent that the related Intercreditor Agreement provides that such Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, is required or permitted to consent to such action. Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer acknowledges and agrees that each Companion Holder and each mezzanine lender or its respective designee has the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement to the extent provided for therein. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer further acknowledges and agrees that any Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder will have the right to replace the Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan, to the extent provided for herein and in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(b)               Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability for any cost, claim or damage that arises from any entitlement in favor of a Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender under the related Intercreditor Agreement or conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of any

  -281-  

 

Intercreditor Agreement that may otherwise require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to abide by any instruction or direction of a Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall comply with any instruction or direction the compliance with which requires an Advance that constitutes or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. In no event shall any expense arising from compliance with an Intercreditor Agreement constitute an expense to be borne by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer for its own account without reimbursement. In no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer be required to consult with or obtain the consent of any Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender unless such Companion Holder or mezzanine lender has delivered notice of its identity and contact information to each of the parties to this Agreement (upon which notice each of the parties to this Agreement shall be conclusively entitled to rely). As of the Closing Date, the contact information for the Companion Holders and mezzanine lenders is as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. In no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, be required to consult with or obtain the consent of a new Directing Certificateholder or a new Controlling Class Certificateholder unless the Certificate Administrator has delivered notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as required under Section 3.23(e) or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, have actual knowledge of the identity and contact information of a new Directing Certificateholder or a new Controlling Class Certificateholder.

(c)               No direction or disapproval of the Companion Holders or any mezzanine lender shall (a) require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate the terms of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, including the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to maintain the REMIC status of each Trust REMIC and the grantor trust status of the Grantor Trust, (b) result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions or (c) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, Trustee’s, the Certificate Administrator’s or the Master Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

(d)               With respect to any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, notwithstanding any rights the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder hereunder may have to consult with respect to any action or other matter with respect to the servicing of such Companion Loan, to the extent the related Intercreditor Agreement provides that such right is exercisable by the related Companion Holder or is exercisable in conjunction with any related Companion Holder, the Directing Certificateholder shall not be permitted to exercise such right or, to the extent provided in the related Intercreditor Agreement, shall exercise such right in conjunction with the related Companion Holder, as applicable (except to the extent that the Directing Certificateholder is the related Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder). Additionally, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall consult, seek the approval or obtain the consent of the holder of any Serviced Companion Loan with respect to any matters with respect to the servicing of such Companion Loan to the extent required under related Intercreditor Agreement and shall not take such actions requiring consent of the related Companion Holder without such consent. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall deliver reports and notices to the related Companion Holder as required under the Intercreditor Agreement.

  -282-  

 

(e)               Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall be required (i) to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Controlling Class Certificateholder pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, to the related Companion Holder, within the same time frame it is required to provide to the Controlling Class Certificateholder (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Controlling Class Certificateholder under this Agreement due to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event or the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) to consult with any related Companion Holder on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such related Companion Holder requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such related Companion Holder; provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to such related Companion Holder by the Special Servicer of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Special Servicer shall no longer be obligated to consult with such related Companion Holder, whether or not such related Companion Holder has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless, the Special Servicer proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the consultation rights of the related Companion Holder set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Special Servicer may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Special Servicer determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holder. In no event shall the Special Servicer be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by the related Companion Holder.

(f)                Each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Holder shall have the right to attend (in person or telephonically, in the discretion of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be) annual meetings with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer at the offices of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the related Whole Loan are discussed.

(g)               With respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall not modify, waive or amend the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement such that the monthly remittance to the holder of the related Companion Loan is required earlier than 2 Business Days after receipt by the Master Servicer of the related Periodic Payment without the consent of the Master Servicer.

(h)               To the extent not otherwise expressly included herein, any provisions required to be included herein pursuant to any Intercreditor Agreement for a Whole Loan are deemed incorporated herein by reference, and the parties hereto shall comply with those provisions as if set forth herein in full.

Section 3.25        Rating Agency Confirmation. (a) Notwithstanding the terms of any related Mortgage Loan documents or other provisions of this Agreement, if any action under any Mortgage Loan documents or this Agreement requires Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action, if the party (the “RAC Requesting Party”) attempting and/or required to obtain such Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency has made a request to any Rating Agency for such Rating Agency Confirmation and, within ten (10) Business Days of the Rating Agency Confirmation request being posted to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, such Rating Agency has not replied to such request or has responded in a manner that indicates that such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then such RAC Requesting Party shall confirm (through direct communication and not by posting any confirmation on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website) that the applicable Rating Agency has received the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and, if it has not, promptly request the related Rating Agency Confirmation again (which may be through direct communication). The circumstances described in the preceding sentence are referred to in this Agreement as a “RAC No-Response Scenario.” Once the RAC Requesting Party has sent a request for a Rating Agency Confirmation to the 17g-5 Information Provider, such RAC Requesting Party may, but shall not be obligated to send such request directly to the Rating Agencies in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 13.10(d).

If there is no response to such Rating Agency Confirmation request within five (5) Business Days of such second request in a RAC No-Response Scenario or if such Rating Agency has responded in a manner that indicates such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then (x) with respect to any condition in any Mortgage Loan document requiring such Rating Agency Confirmation or with respect to any other matter under this Agreement relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than as set forth in clause (y) below), the requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) with respect to such Rating Agency and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may then take such action if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, confirms its original determination (made prior to making such request) that taking the action with respect to which it requested the Rating Agency Confirmation would still be consistent with the Servicing Standard, and (y) with respect to a replacement of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, such condition shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) if (i) the replacement master servicer or special servicer has been appointed and currently serves as a master servicer or a special servicer, as applicable, on a transaction-level basis on a commercial mortgage-backed securities transaction currently rated by Moody’s that currently has securities outstanding and for which Moody’s has not cited servicing concerns with respect to such replacement master servicer or special servicer as the sole or a material factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status” in contemplation of a rating downgrade or withdrawal) of securities in a commercial mortgage-backed securitization transaction serviced by the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer prior to the time of determination, if Moody’s is the non-responding Rating Agency, (ii) the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer is rated at least “CMS3” (in the case of the replacement master servicer) or “CSS3” (in the case of the replacement special servicer), if Fitch is the non-responding Rating Agency or (iii) KBRA has not publicly cited servicing concerns with respect to the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer as the sole or a material factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status” in contemplation of a ratings

  -284-  

 

downgrade or withdrawal) of securities in any other commercial mortgage-backed securitization transaction serviced by such replacement master servicer or special servicer prior to the time of determination, if KBRA is the non-responding Rating Agency.

Any Rating Agency Confirmation request made by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, shall be made in writing, which writing shall contain a cover page indicating the nature of the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and shall contain all back-up material necessary for the Rating Agency to process such request. Such written Rating Agency Confirmation request shall be provided in electronic format to the 17g-5 Information Provider, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such request on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

Promptly following the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination to take any action discussed in this Section 3.25(a) following any requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation being deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide electronic written notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider of the action taken for the particular item at such time, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.25, for purposes of the provisions of any Mortgage Loan document relating to defeasance (including without limitation the type of collateral acceptable for use as defeasance collateral) or release or substitution of any collateral, any Rating Agency Confirmation requirement in the Mortgage Loan documents for which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer would have been permitted to waive obtaining or to make a determination with respect to such Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to Section 3.25(a) shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist).

(c)               For all other matters or actions not specifically discussed in Section 3.25(a) above, the applicable RAC Requesting Party shall deliver Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency.

(d)               With respect to any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan as to which there exists Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, if any action relating to the servicing and administration of the related Whole Loan or any related REO Property (including, but not limited to, the replacement of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or a sub-servicer) (the “Relevant Action”) requires delivery of a Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action pursuant to this Agreement, then such action will also require delivery of a confirmation of each Companion Loan Rating Agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) as a condition precedent to such action, which confirmation shall be sought by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, seeking the corresponding Rating Agency Confirmation(s) in connection with the Relevant Action.

Section 3.26        The Operating Advisor. (a) The Operating Advisor shall review (i) the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan (as provided in Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b), Section 3.18(a), Section 3.18(b), Section 3.19(d), Section 3.26 and Section 6.08) and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to Major Decisions relating to any Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, (ii) all reports by the Special Servicer made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and that are relevant to the Operating Advisor’s obligations hereunder and (iii) each Asset Status Report (after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and (iv) each Final Asset Status Report delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer. The Operating Advisor shall perform its duties hereunder in accordance with the Operating Advisor Standard. Furthermore, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligation or responsibility at any time to review the actions of the Master Servicer for compliance with the Servicing Standard, and the Operating Advisor will not be required to consider such Master Servicer actions in connection with any Operating Advisor Annual Report.

(b)               The Operating Advisor and its Affiliates will be obligated to keep confidential any information appropriately labeled as Privileged Information and any information that appears on its face to be Privileged Information received from the Special Servicer or Directing Certificateholder in connection with the Directing Certificateholder’s exercise of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with the review and/or approval of any Asset Status Report), subject to any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree requiring the disclosure of such Privileged Information. Subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement related to Privileged Information, the Operating Advisor agrees that it shall use information received from the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement solely for purposes of complying with its duties and obligations hereunder.

(c)               (i) Based on the Operating Advisor’s review of (i) any assessment of compliance report, attestation report and other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer or made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website during the prior calendar year, (ii) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, any related Final Asset Status Report or approved or deemed approved Major Decision Reporting Package provided to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer, and (iii) after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, any Asset Status Report and any Major Decision Reporting Package provided to the Operating Advisor with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Operating Advisor shall (but only if any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan was a Specially Serviced Loan at any time during the prior calendar year or if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event occurred during the prior calendar year) deliver to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider within one hundred twenty (120) days of the end of the prior calendar year, an annual report (the “Operating Advisor Annual Report”), substantially in the form of Exhibit V (which form may be modified or altered as to either its organization or content by the Operating Advisor, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement including, without limitation, provisions herein relating to Privileged Information; provided, however, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in the Operating Advisor Annual Report contravene any provision of this Agreement), setting forth whether the

  -286-  

 

Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer is operating in compliance with the Servicing Standard with respect to its performance of its duties pursuant to this Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Loans (and, after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, also with respect to Major Decisions on Non-Specially Serviced Loans) during the prior calendar year on an “asset-level basis” and identifying (1) which, if any, standards with which the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, the Special Servicer has failed to comply and (2) any material deviations from the Special Servicer’s obligations hereunder with respect to the resolution or liquidation of any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property (other than with respect to any REO Property related to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan); provided, further, however, that in the event the Special Servicer is replaced, the Operating Advisor Annual Report shall only relate to the special servicer that was acting as Special Servicer as of December 31 in the prior calendar year and is continuing in such capacity through the date of such Operating Advisor Annual Report; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall prepare a separate Operating Advisor Annual Report relating to each Excluded Special Servicer and any Excluded Special Servicer Loan(s) serviced by such Excluded Special Servicer. In preparing any Operating Advisor Annual Report, the Operating Advisor shall not be required to report on instances of non-compliance with, or deviation from, the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement that the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, to be immaterial. Subject to the restrictions in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.26(c), each such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall (A) identify any material deviations (i) from the Servicing Standard and (ii) from the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement with respect to the resolution or liquidation of Specially Serviced Loans or REO Properties that the Special Servicer is responsible for servicing under this Agreement (other than with respect to any REO Property related to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and (B) comply with all of the confidentiality requirements described in this Agreement regarding Privileged Information (subject to any permitted exceptions). In preparing any Operating Advisor Annual Report, the Operating Advisor shall not be required to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion. Such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall be delivered to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b)) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)); provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall be given an opportunity to review the Operating Advisor Annual Report at least five (5) Business Days prior to its delivery to the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider. The Operating Advisor shall have no obligation to adopt any comments to the Operating Advisor Annual Report that are provided by the Special Servicer. Only as used in this Section 3.26 in connection with the Operating Advisor Annual Report, the term “asset-level basis” refers to the Special Servicer’s performance of its duties as they relate to the resolution and/or liquidation of Specially Serviced Loans (and, after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, also with respect to Major Decisions on Non-Specially Serviced Loans), taking into account the Special Servicer’s specific duties under this Agreement as well as the extent to which those duties were performed in accordance with the Servicing Standard, with reasonable consideration by the Operating Advisor of any assessment of compliance report, attestation report, Major Decision Reporting Package, Asset Status Report (during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), Final Asset Status Report

  -287-  

 

and any other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer (other than any communications between the Directing Certificateholder and the Special Servicer that would be Privileged Information) pursuant to this Agreement.

(ii)                              In the event the Operating Advisor’s ability to perform its obligations in respect of the Operating Advisor Annual Report is limited or prohibited due to the failure of a party hereto to timely deliver information required to be delivered to the Operating Advisor or because such information is inaccurate or incomplete, the Operating Advisor shall set forth such limitations or prohibitions in the related Operating Advisor Annual Report, and the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from such limitations or prohibitions. The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the accuracy and completeness of any information it is provided without liability for any such reliance hereunder. In the event a lack of access to Privileged Information limits or prohibits the Operating Advisor from performing its duties under this Agreement, the Operating Advisor shall set forth any such limitations or prohibitions in the related Operating Advisor Annual Report, and the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from its lack of access to Privileged Information.

(d)               [Reserved].

(e)               (i) With respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan, after the calculation has been finalized (and, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, prior to the utilization by the Special Servicer) of any of the calculations related to (i) Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer, (ii) Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer, (iii) Collateral Deficiency Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer or (iv) net present value in accordance with Section 1.02(iv) calculated by the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall forward such calculations, together with any supporting material or additional information necessary in support thereof (including such additional information that is reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor to confirm the mathematical accuracy of such calculations, but not including any Privileged Communications), to the Operating Advisor promptly, but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after preparing such calculations, and the Operating Advisor shall promptly, but no later than five (5) Business Days after receipt of such calculations and any supporting or additional materials, recalculate and review for accuracy and consistency with this Agreement the mathematical calculations and the corresponding application of the non-discretionary portion of the applicable formulas required to be utilized in connection with any such calculation.

(ii)                              In connection with this Section 3.26(e), in the event the Operating Advisor does not agree with the mathematical calculations of the Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount, Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (if calculated by the Special Servicer) or net present value or the application of the applicable non-discretionary portions of the formula required to be utilized for such calculation, the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer shall consult with each other in order to resolve any material inaccuracy in the mathematical calculations or the application of the non-discretionary portions of the related formula in arriving at those mathematical calculations or any disagreement within seven (7) Business Days of delivery of such

  -288-  

 

calculations. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Special Servicer and provide any information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer necessary for the calculation of the Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount that is either in the Master Servicer’s possession or, solely with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, reasonably obtainable by the Master Servicer. In the event the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer are not able to resolve such inaccuracies or disagreement prior to the end of such seven (7) Business Day period, the Operating Advisor shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of such disagreement and the Certificate Administrator shall examine the calculations and supporting materials provided by the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer and determine which calculation is to apply and shall provide such parties prompt written notice of its determination.

(iii)                           Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consultation duties of the Operating Advisor set forth in this Agreement shall not be permitted to be exercised by the Operating Advisor with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan until after the occurrence and during the continuance of both a Control Termination Event (except with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class) and a related AB Control Appraisal Period.

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor’s review shall be limited to an after-the-action review of any assessment of compliance, attestation report, Major Decision Reporting Package relating to a Specially Serviced Loan, Final Asset Status Report and other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer or made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website during the prior calendar year (together with any additional information and material reviewed by the Operating Advisor), and, therefore, it shall have no specific involvement with respect to collateral substitutions, assignments, workouts, modifications, consents, waivers, lockbox management, insurance policies, borrower substitutions, lease changes, additional borrower debt, defeasances, property management changes, releases from escrow, assumptions and other similar actions that the Special Servicer may perform under this Agreement and will have no obligations at any time with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. In addition, with respect to the Operating Advisor’s review of net present value and Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount calculations as required in Section 3.26(e) above, the Operating Advisor’s recalculation shall not take into account the reasonableness of Special Servicer’s property and borrower performance assumptions or other similar discretionary portions of the net present value and Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount calculation.

(g)               The Operating Advisor and its Affiliates shall keep all information appropriately-labeled as “Privileged Information” and any information that appears on its face to be Privileged Information received from the Special Servicer or the Directing Certificateholder in connection with the Directing Certificateholder’s exercise of its rights under this agreement confidential and shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Certificateholders other than the Directing Certificateholder), other than (1) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information, (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception or (3) where necessary to support specific findings or conclusions concerning allegations of deviations

  -289-  

 

from the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement (i) in the Operating Advisor Annual Report or (ii) in connection with a recommendation by the Operating Advisor to replace the Special Servicer. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Operating Advisor with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and, unless a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Non-Serviced Whole Loan and other than any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class) other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. In addition and for the avoidance of doubt, while the Operating Advisor may serve in a similar capacity with respect to Other Securitizations that involve the same parties or borrower involved in this securitization, the knowledge of the employees performing operating advisor functions for such Other Securitizations shall not be imputed to the employees of the Operating Advisor involved in this securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall be permitted to share Privileged Information with its Affiliates and any subcontractors of the Operating Advisor that agree in writing to be bound by the same confidentiality provisions applicable to the Operating Advisor.

(h)               Subject to the requirements of confidentiality imposed on the Operating Advisor herein (including without limitation in respect of Privileged Information), the Operating Advisor shall respond to Inquiries proposed by Privileged Persons from time to time in accordance with the terms of Section 4.07(a).

(i)                 As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to receive the Operating Advisor Fee on each Remittance Date with respect to each Mortgage Loan (including each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, but not any Companion Loan) and each REO Loan. As to each Mortgage Loan and each REO Loan, the Operating Advisor Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Operating Advisor Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on the related Mortgage Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. In addition, the Depositor shall pay the Operating Advisor a fee of $5,000 (the “Operating Advisor Upfront Fee”) on the Closing Date.

The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to reimbursement of any Operating Advisor Expenses provided for pursuant to Section 6.04(a) and/or 6.04(b), such amounts to be reimbursed from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account as provided by Section 3.05(a). Each successor operating advisor shall acknowledge and agree to the terms of the preceding sentence.

In addition, the Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable to the Operating Advisor with respect to each Major Decision for which the Operating Advisor has consultation obligations hereunder. The Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable from funds on deposit in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.05(a)(ii) of this Agreement, but, with respect to the period when the outstanding Certificate Balances of the Control Eligible Certificates has not been reduced to zero as a result of the allocation of Realized Losses to such Certificates, only to the extent such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee is actually received from the related

  -290-  

 

Mortgagor. When the Operating Advisor has consultation obligations with respect to a Major Decision under this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect the applicable Operating Advisor Consulting Fee from the related Mortgagor in connection with such Major Decision only to the extent not prohibited by the related Mortgage Loan documents, and in no event will it take any enforcement action with respect to the collection of such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, may waive or reduce the amount of any Operating Advisor Consulting Fee payable by the related Mortgagor if it determines that such full or partial waiver is in accordance with the Servicing Standard, but in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer take any enforcement action with respect to the collection of such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee other than requests for collection; provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult, on a non-binding basis, with the Operating Advisor prior to any such waiver or reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor will have no obligations or consultation rights in its capacity as operating advisor with respect to: (i) any Non-Serviced Whole Loan or any related REO Property, (ii) any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of both an AB Control Appraisal Period and a Control Termination Event or (iii) any Servicing Shift Whole Loan or related REO Property; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall not be entitled to an Operating Advisor Consulting Fee with respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan.

(j)                 After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Operating Advisor may be removed upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of Classes to which such Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts are allocable) requesting a vote to replace the Operating Advisor with a replacement Operating Advisor selected by such Certificateholders (provided that the proposed replacement Operating Advisor is an Eligible Operating Advisor), (ii) payment by such requesting Holders to the Certificate Administrator of all reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote and (iii) receipt by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (which confirmations will be obtained by the Certificate Administrator at the expense of such Holders and will not constitute an additional expense of the Trust). The Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders of such request by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b), and concurrently by mail, and conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard. Upon the vote or written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 75% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of Classes to which such Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts are allocable), the Trustee shall immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including accrued and unpaid compensation) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination)) by written notice to the Operating Advisor, and the proposed successor operating advisor will be appointed.

(k)               After the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Termination Event, the Trustee may, and upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates representing at least 25% of

  -291-  

 

the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of the Classes of Certificates), the Trustee shall promptly terminate the Operating Advisor for cause and appoint a replacement Operating Advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor; provided that no such termination shall be effective until a successor operating advisor has been appointed and has assumed all of the obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement. No such termination shall terminate, change, reduce, or otherwise modify the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor that accrued prior to such termination, including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement, and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination). The Trustee may rely on a certification by the replacement Operating Advisor that it is an Eligible Operating Advisor. Upon any termination of the Operating Advisor and appointment of a successor to the Operating Advisor, the Trustee will, as soon as possible, be required to give written notice of the termination and appointment to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the 17g-5 Information Provider (for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website), the Depositor, the Directing Certificateholder (only if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), any Companion Holder and the Certificateholders.

(l)                 The Holders of Certificates representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights affected by any Operating Advisor Termination Event hereunder may waive such Operating Advisor Termination Event within twenty (20) days of the receipt of notice from the Trustee of the occurrence of such Operating Advisor Termination Event. Upon any such waiver of an Operating Advisor Termination Event, such Operating Advisor Termination Event shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. Upon any such waiver of an Operating Advisor Termination Event by certificateholders, the trustee and the certificate administrator will be entitled to recover all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with enforcement action taken with respect to such Operating Advisor Termination Event prior to such waiver from the Trust.

(m)             Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder shall have the right to consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, to the identity of any replacement Operating Advisor appointed pursuant to this Section 3.26; provided, further, that such consent will be deemed to have been granted if no objection is made within ten (10) Business Days following the Directing Certificateholder’s receipt of the request for consent and, if granted or deemed granted, such consent cannot thereafter be revoked or withdrawn.

(n)               The Operating Advisor may resign from its obligations and duties hereby imposed on it (a) upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Directing Certificateholder, and (b) upon the appointment of, and the acceptance of such appointment by, a successor operating advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor and receipt by the Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency. If no successor operating advisor has been appointed and has accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days of receipt by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Directing Certificateholder of the resigning Operating Advisor’s notice of resignation, the resigning Operating Advisor may petition

  -292-  

 

a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor operating advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor. No such resignation by the Operating Advisor shall become effective until the replacement Operating Advisor shall have assumed the resigning Operating Advisor’s responsibilities and obligations. The resigning Operating Advisor shall pay all costs and expenses (including costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) associated with a transfer of its duties pursuant to this Section 3.26.

(o)               [Reserved].

(p)               In the event the Operating Advisor resigns or is otherwise terminated for any reason it shall remain entitled to any accrued and unpaid Operating Advisor Fees and Operating Advisor Consulting Fees and reimbursement of accrued and unpaid Operating Advisor Expenses pursuant to Section 3.26(i) and shall also remain entitled to any rights of indemnification provided hereunder.

(q)               The parties hereto agree, and the Certificateholders by their acceptance of their Certificates shall be deemed to have agreed, that (i) subject to Section 6.04, the Operating Advisor shall have no liability to any Certificateholder for any actions taken or for refraining from taking any actions under this Agreement, (ii) the Operating Advisor shall act solely as a contracting party to the extent set forth in this Agreement, (iii) the Operating Advisor shall have no (A) fiduciary duty, or (B) other duty except with respect to its specific obligations under this Agreement, and shall have no duty to any particular class of Certificates or particular Certificateholders, and (iv) the Operating Advisor does not constitute an “investment adviser” within the meaning of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or a “broker” or “dealer” within the meaning of the Exchange Act.

(r)                [Reserved].

(s)                The Operating Advisor shall at all times be an Eligible Operating Advisor and if the Operating Advisor ceases to be an Eligible Operating Advisor, the Operating Advisor shall immediately resign under Section 3.26(n) of this Agreement and the Trustee shall appoint a successor operating advisor subject to and in accordance with this Section 3.26. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee is unable to find a successor operating advisor within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Operating Advisor, the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement.

(t)                 The Operating Advisor may delegate its duties to agents or subcontractors to the extent such agents or subcontractors satisfy clauses (c), (d) and (f) of the definition of “Eligible Operating Advisor” and so long as the related agreements or arrangements with such agents or subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Agreement related to the Operating Advisor’s duties and obligations; provided that no agent or subcontractor may (i) be affiliated with a Sponsor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates or (ii) have been paid any fees, compensation or other remuneration by an Underwriter, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with due diligence or other services with respect to any Mortgage Loan prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Operating Advisor shall remain obligated and primarily liable for its

  -293-  

 

obligations hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability or related obligation or liability by virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as its agents or subcontractor to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Operating Advisor alone were performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with any agent or subcontractor providing for indemnification of the Operating Advisor by such agent or subcontractor, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(u)               With respect to the determination of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, or has terminated, the Operating Advisor is entitled to rely solely on its receipt from the Certificate Administrator of notice thereof pursuant to Section 3.23(m), and, with respect to any obligations of the Operating Advisor that are performed only after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligation to perform any such duties until the receipt of such notice or actual knowledge of the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event.

(v)               Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (A) the Operating Advisor’s assessment of the Special Servicer’s performance shall be based on the provisions of this Agreement and (B) so long as LNR Partners, LLC is acting as Special Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC shall provide the Operating Advisor reasonable access, at LNR Partners, LLC’s offices during normal business hours, to LNR Partners, LLC’s policies and procedures. The Operating Advisor shall be permitted to review such policies and procedures but is not permitted to retain hard copies and will not be provided with any electronic copies or soft copies. The Operating Advisor shall keep all information contained in the policies and procedures strictly confidential, except (A) the Operating Advisor may disclose such information if (i) such information becomes generally available and known to the public other than as a result of a disclosure directly or indirectly by the Operating Advisor, or (ii) such disclosure is required by applicable law, order, rule or regulation (as demonstrated by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Special Servicer), and (B) the Operating Advisor may disclose a particular portion of the policies and procedures solely when necessary to support specific conclusions concerning allegations of material deviations from the Servicing Standard and the Special Servicer's obligations under this Agreement (i) in the Operating Advisor Annual Report, or (ii) in connection with a recommendation by the Operating Advisor to replace LNR Partners, LLC as the Special Servicer pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall be permitted to share such information with its Affiliates and any subcontractors of the Operating Advisor to the extent reasonably necessary to perform the Operating Advisor’s obligations under this Agreement and provided such Affiliates and subcontractors of the Operating Advisor agree in writing prior to their receipt of such information to be bound by the same confidentiality provisions applicable to the Operating Advisor. The Operating Advisor’s assessment may not take into account (i) the fact that LNR Partners, LLC provided physical access and not via electronic copy to the LNR Partners, LLC written policies and procedures pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and (ii) the waiver or reduction of any Operating Advisor Consulting Fee pursuant to Section 3.26(i) of this Agreement. Nothing set forth herein shall limit or affect the scope of the Operating Advisor’s review in connection with its preparation of the Operating Advisor Annual Report, provided that the Operating Advisor’s access to or reliance upon LNR Partners, LLC’s written policies and procedures shall be subject

  -294-  

 

to the terms of this paragraph. During any period when the Special Servicer is not LNR Partners, LLC or an affiliate of LNR Partners, LLC, the requirements contained in this paragraph shall be null and void.

Section 3.27        Companion Paying Agent. (a) With respect to each of the Serviced Companion Loans, the Master Servicer shall be the Companion Paying Agent hereunder. The Companion Paying Agent undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement.

(b)               No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Companion Paying Agent from liability for its negligent failure to act, bad faith or its own willful misfeasance; provided, however, that the duties and obligations of the Companion Paying Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement. The Companion Paying Agent shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Companion Paying Agent. In the absence of bad faith on the part of the Companion Paying Agent, the Companion Paying Agent may conclusively rely, as to the truth and correctness of the statements or conclusions expressed therein, upon any resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instrument furnished to the Companion Paying Agent by any Person and which on their face do not contradict the requirements of this Agreement.

(c)               In the case of each of the Serviced Companion Loans, upon the resignation or removal of the Master Servicer pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement, the Master Servicer, as the Companion Paying Agent, shall be deemed simultaneously to resign or be removed.

(d)               This Section 3.27 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Companion Paying Agent, as regards to rights accrued prior to such resignation or removal.

Section 3.28        Serviced Companion Noteholder Register. The Companion Paying Agent shall maintain a register (the “Serviced Companion Noteholder Register”) with respect to each Serviced Companion Loan on which it will record the names and address of, and wire transfer instructions for, the Serviced Companion Noteholders from time to time, to the extent such information is provided in writing to it by each Serviced Companion Noteholder. The initial Serviced Companion Noteholders, along with their respective name and address, are listed on Exhibit S hereto. In the event a Serviced Companion Noteholder transfers a Serviced Companion Loan without notice to the Companion Paying Agent, the Companion Paying Agent shall have no liability for any misdirected payment in such Serviced Companion Loan and shall have no obligation to recover and redirect such payment.

The Companion Paying Agent shall promptly provide the name and address of any Serviced Companion Noteholder to any party hereto or any successor Serviced Companion Noteholder upon written request and any such Person may, without further investigation, conclusively rely upon such information. The Companion Paying Agent shall have no liability to any Person for the provision of any such name and address.

  -295-  

 

For the avoidance of doubt, any notices or information required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement by any party hereto to a Serviced Companion Noteholder with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan that has been included in an Other Securitization shall be provided to the Other Servicer under the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Section 3.29        Certain Matters Relating to the Whole Loans. (a) In the event that any of the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer shall be replaced in accordance with the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, upon receipt of notice of a replacement, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall acknowledge its successor as the successor to the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be.

(b)               If any of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Master Servicer receives notice from a Rating Agency that the Master Servicer is no longer an “approved” master servicer by any of the Rating Agencies rating the Certificates, then the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly notify each Non-Serviced Master Servicer of the same.

(c)               In connection with the securitization of each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (in each case, only while it is a Serviced Companion Loan), upon the request of (and at the expense of) the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (or its designee), each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Serviced Companion Noteholder in attempting to cause the related Mortgagor to provide information relating to such Whole Loan and the related notes, and that such holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, for inclusion in any disclosure document(s) relating to such Other Securitization.

(d)               In connection with the sale of any Non-Serviced Whole Loan by any Non-Serviced Special Servicer, upon receipt of any notices or materials required to be furnished by the Non-Serviced Special Servicer to the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement, the Special Servicer shall, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, forward such materials to the Directing Certificateholder for its consent, if such consent is required. The Special Servicer may (with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) waive any timing or delivery requirements related to such sale to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(e)               With respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Directing Certificateholder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, or the Special Servicer, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, shall be entitled to exercise any consultation rights held by the holder of such Mortgage Loan in its capacity as a “Non-Controlling Note Holder” (or similar term identified in the related Intercreditor Agreement) under the related Intercreditor Agreement.

  -296-  

 

(f)                With respect to each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, this Agreement is subject to the related Intercreditor Agreement and incorporates by reference all provisions required to be included herein pursuant to such Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 3.30        Certain Matters with Respect to Joint Mortgage Loans.

(a) If a Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan (a “Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller”) repurchases the Mortgage Note(s) (as such term is defined in this Section 3.30(a)) (a “Repurchased Note”) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that it sold to the Depositor, but the other Mortgage Loan Seller(s) with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan does not repurchase the Mortgage Note(s) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that they sold to the Depositor, the provisions of this Section 3.30 shall apply prior to the adoption, pursuant to Section 13.01(l), of any amendment to this Agreement that provides otherwise. Each Mortgage Loan Seller of a Joint Mortgage Loan has agreed pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that the terms set forth in this Section 3.30 with respect to the servicing

  -298-  

 

and administration of such Joint Mortgage Loan shall apply if one or more of the Mortgage Notes related to such Joint Mortgage Loan has been repurchased from the Trust and at least one other Mortgage Note related to such Joint Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust until such time as all of the Mortgage Notes related to such Joint Mortgage Loan are no longer included in the Trust. For purposes of this Section 3.30, Section 13.01(l) and Section 13.08(a) only, “Mortgage Note” shall mean with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, each original promissory note that collectively represents the Mortgage Note (as defined in Article I) with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and shall not be a collective reference to such promissory notes. With respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, clauses (b)–(j) below shall not apply, and the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement shall continue to govern the relationship between the related Mortgage Notes as if each related Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or Non-Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, as applicable. With respect to any other Joint Mortgage Loan, clauses (b)–(j) below shall apply to such Joint Mortgage Loan.

(b)               Custody of and record title under the Mortgage Loan documents with respect to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan shall be held exclusively by the Custodian as provided under this Agreement or, with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Non-Serviced Custodian as provided under the related Non-Serviced PSA, except that the Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall hold and retain title to its original Repurchased Note(s) and any related endorsements thereof.

(i)                                All of the Mortgage Notes with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan shall be of equal priority with each other, and no portion of any Mortgage Note shall have priority or preference over any other portion of the other Mortgage Notes or security therefor. Payments from the related Mortgagor (including, without limitation, any Penalty Charges) or any other amounts received with respect to each Mortgage Note shall be collected as provided in this Agreement by the Master Servicer and shall be applied upon receipt by the Master Servicer pro rata to each related Mortgage Note based on its respective Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.30(b)(ii). Payments or any other amounts received with respect to the related Repurchased Note shall be held in trust for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and remitted (net of its pro rata share of amounts payable at the Administrative Fee Rate and any other amounts due to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee by the Master Servicer on each Distribution Date pursuant to instructions provided by the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and deposited and applied in accordance with this Agreement, subject to Section 3.30(b)(ii). If any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.30 applies becomes an REO Loan, payments or any other amounts received with respect to any such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be collected and shall be applied upon receipt by the Master Servicer pro rata to each related Mortgage Note based on its respective Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.30(b)(ii). Any Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan subject to this Section 3.30 shall be allocated to each related Mortgage Note pro rata based upon the respective unpaid principal balances thereof.

(ii)                              If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives an aggregate payment of less than the aggregate amount due under any such Joint Mortgage Loan at any particular time, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall

  -299-  

 

receive from the Master Servicer an amount equal to its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such payment. All expenses, losses and shortfalls relating solely to such Joint Mortgage Loan including, without limitation, losses of principal or interest, Nonrecoverable Advances, interest on Servicing Advances, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees (including any such fees related to the applicable Mortgage Notes), shall be allocated between the holders of the related Mortgage Notes pro rata based upon the respective unpaid principal balances thereof. In no event shall any costs, expenses, fees or any other amounts related to any Mortgage Loan or Joint Mortgage Loan other than the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan be deducted from payments or any other amounts received with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and payable to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller.

(iii)                          A Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.30 applies shall be serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and the Certificateholders pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in accordance with the Servicing Standard and in accordance with the provisions herein as if (A) such Joint Mortgage Loan were a Serviced Whole Loan, (B) the related Mortgage Note(s) not repurchased were (1) a Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and (2) the only Mortgage Loan that is part of such Joint Mortgage Loan (or related Serviced Whole Loan), and (C) the related Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan. No Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted to terminate the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor as servicer, special servicer or operating advisor, respectively, of the related Repurchased Note. All rights of the mortgagee under each such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be exercised by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the Trust to the extent of its interest therein and the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with this Agreement.

(iv)                         With respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.30 applies, the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be treated hereunder as if it were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Holder on a pari passu basis. Funds collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and applied to the applicable Mortgage Notes shall be deposited and disbursed in accordance with the provisions hereof relating to holders of promissory notes comprising Serviced Whole Loans that are pari passu in right of payment. Compensation shall be paid to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor with respect to each Repurchased Note as provided in this Agreement as if each such Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor shall have any obligation to make P&I Advances with respect to any Repurchased Note or, if no related Mortgage Note is part of the Trust, a Servicing Advance with respect to any Repurchased Note. Except as otherwise specified herein, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have no reporting requirement with respect to any Repurchased Note other than to deliver to the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller any document as is required to be delivered to a holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan hereunder.

  -300-  

 

(c)               If any non-repurchased Mortgage Note relating to a Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.30 applies is a Specially Serviced Loan, then any related Repurchased Note shall also be a Specially Serviced Loan under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall cause such related Repurchased Note to be specially serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement and shall be entitled to any Special Servicing Fee, Workout Fee or Liquidation Fee payable to the Special Servicer under this Agreement as with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(d)               If (A) the Master Servicer shall pay any amount to any Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the terms hereof in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been made or will be received or collected in connection with any or all of the applicable Mortgage Notes and (B) such related payment is not received or collected by the Master Servicer, then the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly on demand by the Master Servicer return such amount to the Master Servicer. If the Master Servicer determines at any time that any amount received or collected by the Master Servicer in respect of any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.30 applies must be returned to the related Mortgagor or paid to any other person or entity pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, and such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly on demand by the Master Servicer repay (which obligation shall survive the termination of this Agreement) any portion thereof that the Master Servicer shall have distributed to such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Master Servicer may pay to the related Mortgagor or such other person or entity with respect thereto.

(e)               With respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.30 applies, subject to this Agreement (including, without limitation, the consent and consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder and any consultation rights of the Operating Advisor), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the holders of any of the Repurchased Notes, shall have the exclusive right and obligation to (i) administer, service and make all decisions and determinations regarding the related Joint Mortgage Loan and (ii) enforce the applicable Mortgage Loan documents as provided hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may agree to any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, forgive interest on and principal of, capitalize interest on, permit the release, addition or substitution of collateral securing, and/or permit the release of the related Mortgagor on or any guarantor of any Joint Mortgage Loan it is required to service and administer as contemplated by this Section 3.30, without the consent of the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, subject, however, to the terms of this Agreement as they pertain to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(f)                In taking or refraining from taking any action permitted hereunder, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each be subject to the same degree of care with respect to the administration and servicing of the Joint Mortgage Loans that are not Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans and to which this Section 3.30 applies as is consistent with this Agreement and shall be liable to any Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller only to the same extent as set forth herein with respect to any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(g)               If the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has made a Servicing Advance with respect to any Repurchased Note which would otherwise be reimbursable to such advancing party under this Agreement, and such Advance is determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall reimburse the Trust in an amount equal to such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller’s Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such Nonrecoverable Advance with interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be obligated to reimburse the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (and amounts due to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be offset) for Advances or interest thereon or any amounts related to any Mortgage Loans or any other Joint Mortgage Loan other than such amounts relating to the applicable Repurchased Note. To the extent that the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller reimburses any such Nonrecoverable Advances and such amounts are subsequently recovered, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall receive a reimbursement from such recovery based on its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such recovery. This reimbursement right shall not limit the Trustee’s, the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s rights to reimbursement under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the total liability of each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not exceed an amount equal to its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of the amount to be reimbursed.

(h)               Each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the right to assign the related Repurchased Note; provided that, with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.30 applies, the assignee of the related Repurchased Note shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(i)                 With respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.30 applies, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, in connection with their servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement, exercise efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to execute and deliver, on behalf of each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller as a holder of a pari passu interest in the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan, any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents and instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by any Mortgage or other security document related to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to or with respect to the related Joint Mortgage Loan documents, and any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments with respect to the related Repurchased Note or related Repurchased Notes and the related Mortgaged Property all in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Agreement. Each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller agrees to furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer any powers of attorney or other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement related to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan; provided, that such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be liable, and shall be indemnified by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided, further, that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, without the written consent of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, shall not initiate any action in the name of such Repurchasing Mortgage

  -302-  

 

Loan Seller without indicating its representative capacity or take any action with the intent to cause and that actually causes, such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller to be registered to do business in any state.

(j)                 Pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller is required to deliver to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Mortgage Loan documents related to the applicable Repurchased Note, any requests for release and any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of the related Mortgaged Property or to any legal action or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note(s) or the Mortgage(s) or otherwise available at law or equity with respect to the related Repurchased Note.

The resigning Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate shall bear all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each other party to this Agreement, the Trust and each Rating Agency in connection with such resignation as and to the extent required under this Agreement, provided, however, if the affiliation causing an Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate is the result of the Third Party Purchaser acquiring an interest in such Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate or an affiliate of such Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate, then such costs and expenses shall be an expense of the Trust.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall not (i) undertake (or direct the Master Servicer to undertake) any material settlement of any Trust-Related Litigation or (ii) initiate any material Trust-Related Litigation unless and until it has notified in writing the Directing Certificateholder (only if the related Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan and prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) (to the extent the identity of the Directing Certificateholder is actually known to the Special Servicer; provided that the Special Servicer shall make due inquiry of the Certificate Administrator as to the identity of the Directing Certificateholder) and the related holder of any Serviced Companion Loan (if such matter affects such related Serviced Companion Loan) (to the extent the identity of the holder of such Serviced Companion Loan is actually known to the Special Servicer) and the Directing Certificateholder (only if the related Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan and prior to the occurrence and continuation of a Control Termination Event) has not objected in writing within five (5) Business Days of having been notified thereof and having been provided with all information that the Directing Certificateholder has reasonably requested with respect thereto promptly following its receipt of the subject notice (it being understood and agreed that if such written objection has not been received by the Special Servicer within such five (5) Business Day period, then the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed to have approved the taking of such action); provided that, if the Special Servicer determines (consistent with the Servicing Standard) that immediate action is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holders, the Special Servicer may take such action without waiting for the Directing Certificateholder’s response.

(e)               Notwithstanding the right of the Special Servicer to represent the interests of the Trust in Trust-Related Litigation, and subject to the rights of the Special Servicer to direct the Master Servicer’s actions in this Section 3.32, the Master Servicer shall retain the right to make determinations relating to claims against the Master Servicer, including but not limited to the right to engage separate counsel and to appear in any proceeding on its own behalf in the Master Servicer’s reasonable discretion, the cost of which shall be subject to indemnification as and to the extent provided in this Agreement.

distributable pursuant to this paragraph are referred to herein collectively as the “Lower-Tier Distribution Amount”, and shall be made by the Certificate Administrator by deeming such Lower-Tier Distribution Amount to be withdrawn from the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account to be deposited in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account.

As of any date, the principal balance of each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall equal the Certificate Balance of the Class of Related Certificates or Related Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interest with respect thereto as adjusted for the allocation of Realized Losses as provided in Section 4.01(a) and Section 4.01(c).

Certificates and the Class A-3 Exchangeable Certificates (collectively) described above; (xii) to the Class X-B Certificates, the excess, if any, of (A) the product of (I) such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium and (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of principal distributed to the Class A-S Exchangeable Certificates (collectively), the Class B Exchangeable Certificates (collectively) and the Class C Exchangeable Certificates (collectively) for that Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the YM Denominator for that Distribution Date, over (B) the amount of such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium distributed to the Class A-S Exchangeable Certificates (collectively), the Class B Exchangeable Certificates (collectively) and the Class C Exchangeable Certificates (collectively) described above; and (xiii) to the Class X-D certificates, any remaining portion of such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium not distributed as described above.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, if at any time the Certificate Balances of the Principal Balance Certificates (other than the Control Eligible Certificates) have been reduced to zero as a result of the allocation of principal payments on the Mortgage Loans, and any Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium is collected during any Collection Period with respect to any Mortgage Loan, then on the Distribution Date immediately succeeding the end of such Collection Period, the Certificate Administrator shall pay to the Holders of each remaining Class of Principal Balance Certificates then entitled to distributions of principal on such Distribution Date the product of (a) any Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium distributable on the subject Distribution Date (net of any Liquidation Fees payable therefrom), and (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of principal distributed to such Class for that Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all Principal Balance Certificates for that Distribution Date.

For purposes of the first paragraph of this Section 4.01(e), the relevant “Base Interest Fraction” in connection with any Principal Prepayment of any Mortgage Loan that provides for the payment of a Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium, and with respect to any Class of Principal Balance Certificates, shall be a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the greater of (x) zero and (y) the difference between (i) the Pass-Through Rate on such Class for the related Distribution Date, and (ii) the applicable Discount Rate and (B) the denominator of which is the difference between (i) the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the applicable Discount Rate; provided that: (a) under no circumstances will the Base Interest Fraction be greater than 1.0; (b) if the applicable Discount Rate is greater than or equal to the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan and is greater than or equal to the Pass-Through Rate on such Class for the related Distribution Date, then the Base Interest Fraction will equal zero; and (c) if the applicable Discount Rate is greater than or equal to the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan and is less than the Pass-Through Rate on such Class for the related Distribution Date, then the Base Interest Fraction shall be equal to 1.0. If a Mortgage Loan provides for a step-up in the Mortgage Rate, then the Mortgage Rate used in the determination of the Base Interest Fraction will be the Mortgage Rate in effect at the time of the prepayment.

For purposes of the preceding paragraph, the relevant “Discount Rate” in connection with any Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge collected on any prepaid Mortgage Loan or REO Loan and distributable on any Distribution Date shall be a rate per annum equal to (i) if a discount rate was used in the calculation of the applicable Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge pursuant to the terms of the relevant Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as

  -315-  

 

the case may be, such discount rate (as reported by the Master Servicer), converted (if necessary) to a monthly equivalent yield, or (ii) if a discount rate was not used in the calculation of the applicable Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge pursuant to the terms of the relevant Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, the yield calculated by the linear interpolation of the yields (as reported under the heading “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Constant Maturities” in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) published by the Federal Reserve Board for the week most recently ended before the date of the relevant prepayment (or deemed prepayment) of U.S. Treasury constant maturities with a maturity date, one longer and one shorter, most nearly approximating the related stated Maturity Date (in the case of a Mortgage Loan or REO Loan that is not related to an ARD Loan) or the related Anticipated Repayment Date (in the case of a Mortgage Loan or REO Loan that is related to an ARD Loan)), such interpolated yield converted to a monthly equivalent yield. If Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) is no longer published, the Certificate Administrator shall select a comparable publication as the source of the applicable yields of U.S. Treasury constant maturities.

No Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium shall be distributed to the Class XERR, Class XFRR, Class XGRR, Class XJRR, Class E-RR, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class J-RR or Class R Certificates.

All distributions of Yield Maintenance Charges and Prepayment Premiums made in respect of the respective Classes of Regular Certificates and the Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests (and, correspondingly, the Exchangeable Certificates) on each Distribution Date pursuant to this Section 4.01(e) shall first be deemed to be distributed from the Lower-Tier REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, pro rata based upon the amount of principal distributed in respect of each such Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(c) above.

(f)                On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw amounts from the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account and shall distribute such amounts to reimburse the Holders of the Regular Certificates and the Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests (and, correspondingly, the Exchangeable Certificates) (in order of distribution priority) (first deeming such amounts to be distributed with respect to the Related Lower-Tier Regular Interests) up to an amount equal to all Realized Losses, if any, previously deemed allocated to them and unreimbursed after application of the Available Funds for such Distribution Date. Amounts paid from the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall not reduce the Certificate Balances of the Classes of Certificates receiving such distributions. Any amounts remaining in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account after such distributions shall be applied to offset future shortfalls and Realized Losses with respect to the Principal Balance Certificates and related Realized Losses, in each case allocable to the Regular Certificates and the Exchangeable Certificates. Upon termination of the Trust, any amounts remaining in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates from the Lower-Tier REMIC in respect of the Class LR Interest.

(g)               All distributions made with respect to each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 4.01(h), 4.01(i) and 9.01, all such distributions with respect to each Class on each Distribution Date shall be made to the Certificateholders of the respective Class of record at the

  -316-  

 

close of business on the related Record Date and shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of any such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided the Certificate Administrator with wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent Distribution Dates), or otherwise by check mailed to such Certificateholder at its address in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to such Certificate) will be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Underwriters shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this Agreement or applicable law.

(h)               Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the Certificate Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of any amount of Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class of Certificates) will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall, no later than the related P&I Advance Determination Date, post on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) a notice in electronic format to the effect that:

(i)                                 the Certificate Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location therein specified; and

(ii)                              no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after such Distribution Date.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(h) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six (6) months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all

  -317-  

 

such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate, subject to applicable law with respect to escheatment of funds. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust hereunder by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(h).

(i)                 Distributions in reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to the Regular Certificates and Exchangeable Certificates shall be made in the amounts and manner specified in Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(c) or Section 4.01(d), as applicable, to the Holders of the respective Class otherwise entitled to distributions of interest and principal on such Class on the relevant Distribution Date; provided that all distributions in reimbursement of Realized Losses, previously allocated to a Class of Certificates which has since been retired shall be to the prior Holders that surrendered the Certificates of such Class upon retirement thereof and shall be made by check mailed to the address of each such prior Holder last shown in the Certificate Register. Notice of any such distribution to a prior Holder shall be made in accordance with Section 13.05 at such last address. The amount of the distribution to each such prior Holder shall be based upon the aggregate Percentage Interest evidenced by the Certificates surrendered thereby. If the check mailed to any such prior Holder is returned uncashed, then the amount thereof shall be set aside and held uninvested in trust for the benefit of such prior Holder, and the Certificate Administrator shall attempt to contact such prior Holder in the manner contemplated by Section 4.01(h) as if such Holder had failed to surrender its Certificates.

(j)                 On each Distribution Date, any Excess Interest received during the related Collection Period with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be distributed to the Holders of the Excess Interest Certificates in an amount equal to such Excess Interest from the Excess Interest Distribution Account. Excess Interest will not be available to pay any other amounts except for distributions on the Excess Interest Certificates as set forth in the prior sentence.

(k)               On each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan, the Companion Paying Agent shall make withdrawals and payments from the Companion Distribution Account for each Companion Loan in the following order of priority:

(i)                                 to pay to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, as applicable, any amounts deposited by the Master Servicer in the Companion Distribution Account not required to be deposited therein;

(ii)                              to the extent permitted under the related Intercreditor Agreement and not otherwise previously reimbursed, to pay the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator or any of their directors, officers, employees and agents, as the case may be, any amounts payable or reimbursable to any such Person pursuant to Section 8.05, to the extent any such amounts relate solely to a Serviced Whole Loan related to such Companion Loan, and such

  -318-  

 

amounts are to be paid by the related Companion Holder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement;

(iii)                           to pay all amounts remaining in the Companion Distribution Account related to such Serviced Companion Loan to the related Companion Holder, in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement; and

(iv)                            to clear and terminate the Companion Distribution Account at the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.

All distributions from the Companion Distribution Account required hereunder shall be made by the Companion Paying Agent to the related Companion Holder by wire transfer in immediately available funds on each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date (and on each additional date required by this Agreement or the related Intercreditor Agreement) to the account of such Companion Holder or an agent therefor appearing on the Serviced Companion Noteholder Register on the related Record Date (or, if no such account so appears or information relating thereto is not provided at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by check sent by first class mail to the address of such Companion Holder or its agent appearing on the Serviced Companion Noteholder Register). Any such account shall be located at a commercial bank in the United States.

On the final Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from Collection Account and deliver to the Certificate Administrator who shall distribute to the Mortgage Loan Sellers, any Loss of Value Payments relating to the Mortgage Loans that it is servicing and that were transferred from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to the Collection Account on the immediately preceding Remittance Date.

Section 4.02        Distribution Date Statements; CREFC^® Investor Reporting Packages; Grant of Power of Attorney. (a) On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall make available pursuant to Section 3.13(b) on the Certificate Administrator’s Website to any Privileged Person a statement (substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit G hereto and based in part upon information supplied to the Certificate Administrator in the related CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package in accordance with CREFC^® guidelines) as to the distributions made on such Distribution Date (each, a “Distribution Date Statement”) which shall include:

  -322-  

 

Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Certificate Administrator shall furnish to each Person who at any time during the calendar year was a Holder of a Certificate, a statement containing the information set forth in clauses (i) and (x) above as to the applicable Class, aggregated for such calendar year or applicable portion thereof during which person was a Certificateholder, together with such other information as the Certificate Administrator deems necessary or desirable, or that a Certificateholder or Certificate Owner reasonably requests, to enable Certificateholders to prepare their tax returns for such calendar year. Such obligation of the Certificate Administrator shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be provided by the Certificate Administrator pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time are in force.

Upon receipt of an Asset Review Report Summary from the Asset Representations Reviewer required to be delivered pursuant to Section 12.01(b), the Certificate Administrator shall (i) include such Asset Review Report Summary in Item 1B on the Form 10-D for such period in which such Asset Review Report Summary was delivered, and (ii) post such Asset Review Report Summary to the Certificate Administrator’s Website not later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of such Asset Review Report Summary from the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(b)               [RESERVED].

(c)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may, at its sole cost and expense, make available by electronic media, bulletin board service or Internet website (in addition to making information available as provided herein) any reports or other information the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is required or permitted to provide to any party to this Agreement, the Rating Agencies or any Certificateholder or any prospective Certificateholder that has provided the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with an Investor Certification or has executed a “click-through” confidentiality agreement in accordance with Section 3.13 (which may be a licensed or registered investment advisor) to the extent such action does not conflict with the terms of this Agreement (including without limitation, any requirements to keep Privileged Information confidential), the terms of the Mortgage Loans or applicable law. Notwithstanding this paragraph, the availability of such information or reports on the Internet or similar electronic media shall not be deemed to satisfy any specific delivery requirements in this Agreement except as set forth herein. In connection with providing access to the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s Internet website, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall take reasonable measures to ensure that only such parties listed above may access such information including, without limitation, requiring registration, a confidentiality agreement and acceptance of a disclaimer. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be liable for dissemination of this information in accordance with this Agreement, and neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be responsible for any information delivered, produced, or made available pursuant to Section 3.13, other than information produced by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable; provided that such information otherwise meets the requirements set forth herein with respect to the form and substance of such information or reports. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to attach to any report provided pursuant to this subsection, any reasonable disclaimer with respect to information provided, or any assumptions required to be made by such report.

  -323-  

 

The Special Servicer shall from time to time (and, in any event, as may be reasonably required by the Master Servicer) provide the Master Servicer with such information in its possession regarding the Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as may be necessary for the Master Servicer to prepare each report and any supplemental information to be provided by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator. None of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Depositor shall have any obligation to recompute, verify or recalculate the information provided thereto by the Master Servicer. Unless the Certificate Administrator has actual knowledge that any report or file received from the Master Servicer contains erroneous information, the Certificate Administrator is authorized to rely thereon in calculating and making distributions to Certificateholders in accordance with Section 4.01, preparing the Distribution Date Statement required by Section 4.02(a) and allocating Realized Losses to the Certificates in accordance with Section 4.04.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed pursuant to this Section 4.02(c) or Section 4.02(d) shall not constitute a breach of this Section 4.02(c) or of Section 4.02(d) to the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer so fails because such disclosure, in the reasonable belief of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would violate any applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may affix to any information provided by it any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto).

(d)               Upon the written request of a Certificateholder, any beneficial owner of a Certificate or any prospective purchaser of a Certificate that is a Qualified Institutional Buyer and is designated by a Certificateholder or a beneficial owner of a Certificate as such and, in any case, has delivered an Investor Certification to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, as soon as reasonably practicable, at the expense of the requesting party, the Certificate Administrator shall make available to the requesting party such information that is in the Certificate Administrator’s possession or can reasonably be obtained by the Certificate Administrator as is requested by such person, for purposes of satisfying applicable reporting requirements under Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Neither the Certificate Registrar, nor the Certificate Administrator shall have any responsibility for the sufficiency under Rule 144A or any other securities laws of any available information so furnished to any person including any prospective purchaser of a Certificate or any interest therein, nor for the content or accuracy of any information so furnished which was prepared or delivered to them by another.

(e)               The information to which any Certificateholder is entitled is limited to the information gathered and provided to the Certificateholder by the parties hereto pursuant to this Agreement and by acceptance of any Certificate, each Certificateholder agrees that except as specifically provided herein, no Certificateholder shall contact any Mortgagor directly with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(f)                Upon the reasonable request of the Directing Certificateholder or any Controlling Class Certificateholder that, in either case, is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to any Excluded Controlling Class Loan identified to the Master Servicer’s (in the

case of a Non-Specially Serviced Loan) or the Special Servicer’s (in the case of a Specially Serviced Loan) reasonable satisfaction (at the expense of the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder) and if such information is in the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s possession, as applicable, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, shall provide or make available (or make available electronically) to the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, (at the expense of the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable) any Excluded Information (available to Privileged Persons through the Certificate Administrator’s Website but not accessible to the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, through the Certificate Administrator’s Website because the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to another Excluded Controlling Class Loan) relating to any Excluded Controlling Class Loan with respect to which the Directing Certificateholder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, is not a Borrower Party; provided that, in connection therewith, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may require a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, generally to the effect that such Person is the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, will keep such Excluded Information confidential and is not a Borrower Party, upon which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may conclusively rely. In addition, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on delivery from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B that the Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Class Certificateholder is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer referenced in this Section 4.02(f) shall include any applicable Excluded Special Servicer with respect to the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan(s).

Section 4.03        P&I Advances. (a) On or before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on each P&I Advance Date, the Master Servicer shall (i) remit to the Certificate Administrator for deposit from its own funds into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of P&I Advances, if any, with respect to the Mortgage Loans serviced by the Master Servicer to be made in respect of the related Distribution Date, (ii) apply amounts held in the Collection Account, for future distribution to Certificateholders in subsequent months in discharge of any such obligation to make such P&I Advances or (iii) make such P&I Advances in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of P&I Advances to be made. Any amounts held in the Collection Account for future distribution and so used to make P&I Advances shall be appropriately reflected in the Master Servicer’s records and replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before the next succeeding P&I Advance Date (to the extent not previously replaced through the deposit of Late Collections of the delinquent principal and/or interest in respect of which such P&I Advances were made). The Master Servicer shall notify the Certificate Administrator of (i) the aggregate amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer for a Distribution Date and (ii) the amount of any Nonrecoverable P&I Advances with respect to Mortgage Loans serviced by the Master Servicer for such Distribution Date, on or before two (2) Business Days prior to such Distribution Date. If the Master Servicer fails to make a required P&I Advance by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on any P&I Advance Date, the Trustee shall make such P&I Advance pursuant to Section 7.05 by

  -325-  

 

noon, New York City time, on the related Distribution Date, unless the Master Servicer shall have cured such failure (and provided written notice of such cure to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Distribution Date. In the event that the Master Servicer fails to make a required P&I Advance hereunder, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee of such circumstances by 4:30 p.m., New York City time, on the related P&I Advance Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the portion of any P&I Advance equal to the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee shall not be remitted to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account but shall be deposited into the Collection Account for payment to CREFC^® on such Distribution Date.

If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes a P&I Advance with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan with a related Serviced Companion Loan, then it shall provide to the related other master servicer and Other Trustee under the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement written notice of the amount of such P&I Advance with respect to such Mortgage Loan within two (2) Business Days of making such P&I Advance.

If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes a P&I Advance with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, then it shall provide to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Trustee written notice of the amount of such P&I Advance within two (2) Business Days of making such P&I Advance.

The Special Servicer shall not have any obligation to make any P&I Advance or any recoverability determination with respect to any P&I Advance under this Agreement.

(b)               Subject to Section 4.03(c) and Section 4.03(e) below, the amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer with respect to any Distribution Date, and each Mortgage Loan, shall be equal to: (i) the Periodic Payments (net of related Servicing Fees and, in the case of any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, a fee accruing at the related Non-Serviced Primary Servicing Fee Rate) other than Balloon Payments, that were due on such Mortgage Loan (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan) during the related Collection Period and were not received as of the close of business on the Business Day preceding the related P&I Advance Date (or not advanced by any Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer) and (ii) with respect to each such Mortgage Loan for which it acts as Master Servicer that is delinquent in respect of its Balloon Payment as of the P&I Advance Date (including any REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan) as to which the related Balloon Payment would have been past due), an amount equal to the Assumed Scheduled Payment therefor. Subject to subsection (c) below, the obligation of the Master Servicer to make such P&I Advances is mandatory, and with respect to any Mortgage Loan (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan), shall continue until the Distribution Date on which the proceeds, if any, received in connection with a Liquidation Event or the disposition of the REO Property, as the case may be, with respect thereto are to be distributed. No P&I Advances shall be made with respect to any Companion Loan.

(c)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no P&I Advance shall be made hereunder if such P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. With respect to each Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the

  -326-  

 

Trustee shall make its determination that a P&I Advance that has been made on such Serviced Mortgage Loan is a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance with respect to such Serviced Mortgage Loan independently of any determination made by the applicable Other Servicer or Other Trustee, as the case may be, under the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement in respect of the related Serviced Companion Loan. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee determines that a proposed P&I Advance with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall provide the applicable Other Servicer written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days of the date of such determination. If the Master Servicer receives written notice from the related Other Servicer, as the case may be, that an Other Servicer or the Other Trustee has determined, in accordance with the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, that any proposed advance under the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement that is similar to a P&I Advance would be, or any outstanding advance under such Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement that is similar to a P&I Advance is, a nonrecoverable advance, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee may, based upon such determination, determine that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made with respect to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan will be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. Thereafter, in either case, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall not be required to make any additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan unless and until the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines that any such additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan would not be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, which determination may be as a result of consultation with the related Other Servicer, as the case may be, or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have the sole discretion provided in this Agreement to determine that any future P&I Advance or outstanding P&I Advance would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance.

With respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall make its determination (based on information provided by the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer) that a P&I Advance that has been made on such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance with respect to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan independently of any determination made by the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer, the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer or the Non-Serviced Trustee, as the case may be, under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA in respect of the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee determines that a proposed P&I Advance with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall provide the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days of the date of such determination. If the Master Servicer receives written notice from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be, that either has determined, or the Non-Serviced Trustee has determined, in accordance with the applicable Non-Serviced PSA with respect to a Non-Serviced Companion Loan, that any proposed

  -327-  

 

advance under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA that is similar to a P&I Advance would be, or any outstanding advance under such Non-Serviced PSA that is similar to a P&I Advance is, a nonrecoverable advance, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee may, based upon such determination, determine that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan will be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. Thereafter, in either case, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall not be required to make any additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan unless and until the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines that any such additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan would not be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, which determination may be as a result of consultation with the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be, or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have the sole discretion provided in this Agreement to determine that any future P&I Advance or outstanding P&I Advance would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(d)               In connection with the recovery of any P&I Advance out of the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.05(a), the Master Servicer shall be entitled to pay the Trustee and itself (in that order of priority) as the case may be, out of any amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account (but in no event from any funds allocable to a Serviced Companion Noteholder (unless related thereto), except to the extent permitted pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement), interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of such P&I Advance from the date made to but not including the date of reimbursement; provided, however, that no interest will accrue on any P&I Advance (i) if the related Periodic Payment is received on or before the related Due Date has passed and any applicable Grace Period has expired or (ii) if the related Periodic Payment is received after the Determination Date but on or prior to the related P&I Advance Date. The Master Servicer shall reimburse itself and/or the Trustee, as the case may be, for any outstanding P&I Advance, subject to Section 3.17 of this Agreement, as soon as practicably possible after funds available for such purpose are deposited in the Collection Account.

(e)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall make an advance for Excess Interest, Yield Maintenance Charges, Default Interest, late payment charges, Prepayment Premiums, or Balloon Payments or make any P&I Advance with respect to any Companion Loan and (ii) if an Appraisal Reduction Amount has been determined with respect to any Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, an “appraisal reduction amount” has been made in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA and the Master Servicer has notice of such appraisal reduction amount) then in the event of subsequent delinquencies thereon, the interest portion of the P&I Advance in respect of such Mortgage Loan for the related Distribution Date shall be reduced (it being herein acknowledged that there shall be no reduction in the principal portion of such P&I Advance) to equal the product of (x) the amount of the interest portion of such P&I Advance for such Mortgage Loan for such Distribution Date without regard to this Section 4.03(e), and (y) a fraction, expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which is equal to the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such Distribution Date, net of the related Appraisal Reduction Amount (or, in the case of any Whole Loan, the portion of such Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to the related Mortgage Loan), if any, and the denominator of which is equal to the Stated Principal

  -328-  

 

Balance of such Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such Distribution Date. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the Periodic Payment due on the Maturity Date for a Balloon Mortgage Loan will be the Assumed Scheduled Payment for the related Distribution Date.

(f)                In no event shall either the Master Servicer or the Trustee be required to make a P&I Advance with respect to any Companion Loan.

Section 4.04        Allocation of Realized Losses. (a) On each Distribution Date, immediately following the distributions to be made on such date pursuant to Section 4.01, the Certificate Administrator shall calculate the Realized Loss for such Distribution Date. Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Class of Regular Certificates or Exchangeable Certificates or Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests shall be made by reducing the Certificate Balance thereof by the amount so allocated. Any Realized Losses so allocated to a Class of Regular or Exchangeable Certificates shall be allocated among the respective Certificates of such Class of Regular Certificates or Exchangeable Certificates in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby. The allocation of Realized Losses shall constitute an allocation of losses and other shortfalls experienced by the Trust. Reimbursement of previously allocated Realized Losses will not constitute distributions of principal for any purpose and will not result in an additional reduction in the Certificate Balance of the applicable Class of Certificates or Upper-Tier Regular Interest in respect of which any such reimbursement is made. With respect to any Class of Principal Balance Certificates (other than any Exchangeable Certificates) and Exchangeable Upper-Tier P&I Regular Interests, to the extent any Nonrecoverable Advances (plus interest thereon) that were reimbursed from principal collections on the Mortgage Loans and previously resulted in a reduction of the Principal Distribution Amount (and corresponding to a reduction of the Principal Distribution Amount) are subsequently recovered on the related Mortgage Loan, the amount of such recovery will be added to the Certificate Balance of the Class or Classes of Principal Balance Certificates or Exchangeable Upper-Tier P&I Regular Interests that previously were allocated Realized Losses, in sequential order according to the priority of payments for the Principal Balance Certificates (other than the Exchangeable Certificates) and Exchangeable Upper-Tier P&I Regular Interests (and with respect to the Class A-1 Certificates and the Class A-3 Upper-Tier Regular Interests (and, correspondingly, to the Class A-3, Class A-3-1 and Class A-3-2 Certificates, pro rata in proportion to their Class Percentage Interests in the Class A-3 Upper-Tier Regular Interest), on a pro rata basis according to the amount of unreimbursed Realized Losses on such Classes), in each case up to the amount of the unreimbursed Realized Losses allocated to such Class of Principal Balance Certificates or Exchangeable Upper-Tier P&I Regular Interests.

(b)               On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Balances of the Principal Balance Certificates (other than any Exchangeable Certificates) and the Exchangeable Upper-Tier P&I Regular Interests will be reduced without distribution, as a write-off to the extent of any Realized Losses, if any, allocable to such Certificates or Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests with respect to such Distribution Date. Any such write-off shall be allocated in the following order:

(i)                                 first, to the Class J-RR certificates;

(ii)                            second, to the Class G-RR certificates;

  -329-  

 

(iii)                         third, to the Class F-RR certificates;

(iv)                          fourth, to the Class E-RR certificates;

(v)                             fifth, to the Class D certificates;

(vi)                        sixth, to the Class C Upper-Tier Regular Interest (and, correspondingly, to the Class C, Class C-1 and Class C-2 Certificates, pro rata in proportion to their Class Percentage Interests in the Class C Upper-Tier Regular Interest);

(vii)                     seventh, to the Class B Upper-Tier Regular Interest (and, correspondingly, to the Class B, Class B-1 and Class B-2 Certificates, pro rata in proportion to their Class Percentage Interests in the Class B Upper-Tier Regular Interest);

(viii)                  eighth, to the Class A-S Upper-Tier Regular Interest (and, correspondingly, to the Class A-S, Class A-S-1 and Class A-S-2 Certificates, pro rata in proportion to their Class Percentage Interests in the Class A-S Upper-Tier Regular Interest); and

(ix)                          then, pro rata (based on their respective Certificate Balances), to the Class A-1 Certificates and the Class A-3 Upper-Tier Regular Interests (and, correspondingly, to the Class A-3, Class A-3-1 and Class A-3-2 Certificates, pro rata in proportion to their Class Percentage Interests in the Class A-3 Upper-Tier Regular Interest), in each case until the remaining Certificate Balances of such Classes of Certificates or Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests have been reduced to zero.

Any Realized Losses applied to the Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B or Class C Upper-Tier Regular Interest shall be allocated to the corresponding Classes of Exchangeable Certificates with Certificate Balances that represent an interest therein pro rata to reduce their Certificate Balances in accordance with their Class Percentage Interests therein.

(c)               With respect to any Distribution Date, any Realized Losses allocated to a Class of Principal Balance Certificates (other than any Exchangeable Certificates) or Exchangeable Upper-Tier P&I Regular Interest pursuant to Section 4.04(a) or Section 4.04(b), with respect to such Distribution Date shall reduce the Lower-Tier Principal Amount of the Related Lower-Tier Regular Interest with respect thereto as a write-off.

Section 4.05        Appraisal Reduction Amounts; Collateral Deficiency Amounts.
(a) For purposes of (x) determining the Controlling Class (and whether a Control Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing) and (y) determining the Voting Rights of the related Classes for purposes of removal of the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts (with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, to the extent allocated to the related Mortgage Loan) shall be allocated to each Class of Certificates (other than any Exchangeable Certificates) and the Exchangeable Upper-Tier P&I Regular Interests in reverse sequential order to notionally reduce the related Certificate Balances until the Certificate Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero (i.e., first, to the Class J-RR Certificates, second, to the Class G-RR Certificates, third, to the Class F-RR Certificates, fourth, to the Class E-RR Certificates, fifth, to the Class D Certificates, sixth, to the Class C Upper-Tier Regular Interest, seventh, to the Class B Upper-Tier Regular Interest, eighth, to the Class A-

  -330-  

 

S Upper-Tier Regular Interest and finally, pro rata based on their respective interest entitlements, to the Class A-1 Certificates and the Class A-3 Upper-Tier Regular Interests. Appraisal Reduction Amounts and Collateral Deficiency Amounts allocated to any Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interest as set forth above will be allocated to the Classes of Exchangeable P&I Certificates representing interests therein pro rata in accordance with their respective Class Percentage Interests in such Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interest.

As of the first Determination Date following a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) becoming an AB Modified Loan, the Special Servicer shall calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent Appraisal obtained by the Special Servicer with respect to such Mortgage Loan, and all other information relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount determination. The Master Servicer shall provide (via electronic delivery) the Special Servicer with any information in its possession that is reasonably required to determine, redetermine, calculate or recalculate any Collateral Deficiency Amount for any Serviced Mortgage Loan and any Serviced Companion Loan using reasonable efforts to deliver such information within four (4) Business Days of the Special Servicer’s reasonable request. Upon obtaining knowledge or receipt of notice by the Master Servicer that a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, the Master Servicer shall (i) promptly request from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer and Non-Serviced Trustee the most recent appraisal with respect to such AB Modified Loan, in addition to all other information reasonably required by the Master Servicer to calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, and (ii) as of the first Determination Date following receipt by the Master Servicer of the appraisal and any other information set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i) that the Master Servicer reasonably expects to receive, calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent appraisal obtained by the Non-Serviced Special Servicer with respect to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, and all other information in its possession relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount determination. Upon obtaining knowledge or receipt of notice by any other party to this Agreement that a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, such party shall promptly notify the Master Servicer thereof. Upon reasonable prior written request, the Master Servicer shall provide the Special Servicer with information in its possession that is reasonably required to calculate or recalculate any Collateral Deficiency Amount. None of the Master Servicer (with respect to Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans)), the Special Servicer (with respect to Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans), the Operating Advisor (unless an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing and the Special Servicer has calculated any such Collateral Deficiency Amount), the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall calculate or verify any Collateral Deficiency Amount.

For purposes of determining the Controlling Class and whether a Control Termination Event or Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, Collateral Deficiency Amounts allocated to an AB Modified Loan will be allocated to each Class of Control Eligible Certificates in Reverse Sequential Order to notionally reduce the related Certificate Balances until the Certificate Balance of each such Class of Control Eligible Certificates is reduced to zero. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining the Controlling Class or the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, any Class of Control Eligible Certificates shall be allocated both applicable Appraisal Reduction Amounts and

  -331-  

 

applicable Collateral Deficiency Amounts (the sum of which shall constitute the applicable Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount), in accordance with this Section 4.05(a), but only to the extent of the Appraisal Reduction Amounts and Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts.

With respect to (i) any Appraisal Reduction Amount calculated for the purposes of determining the Voting Rights of the related Classes for purposes of removal of the Special Servicer or Operating Advisor and (ii) any Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount calculated for purposes of determining the Controlling Class or the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property shall be determined on an “as is” basis.

The Special Servicer (in the case of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan)) or the Master Servicer (in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall promptly notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and the Master Servicer shall notify the Certificate Administrator, to the extent it receives such information, of the amount of any Appraisal Reduction Amount, any Collateral Deficiency Amount and any resulting Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to each Mortgage Loan, AB Modified Loan or Serviced Whole Loan (which notification shall be satisfied through delivery of such Appraisal Reduction Amount as included in the CREFC® Appraisal Reduction Amount Template included in the CREFC® Investor Reporting Package with respect to the Collateral Deficiency Amount and the Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount) and the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice of such Appraisal Reduction Amount, Collateral Deficiency Amount and/or Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount, as applicable, to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Based on information in its possession, the Certificate Administrator shall determine from time to time which Class of Certificates is the Controlling Class. Promptly upon its determination of a change in the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor of such event, including the identity and contact information of the new Controlling Class Certificateholder and the identity of the Controlling Class as set forth in Section 3.23(m) (the cost of obtaining such information from the Depository being an expense of the Trust).

(b)               (i) The Holders of the majority of Voting Rights of any Class of Control Eligible Certificates that is determined at any time of determination to no longer be the Controlling Class (any such Class, an “Appraised-Out Class”) as a result of an Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (as applicable) in respect of such Class shall have the right, at their sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order (or, with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, require the Master Servicer to request from the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer) a second Appraisal with respect to any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan) for which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred or as to which there exists a Collateral Deficiency Amount (such Holders, the “Requesting Holders”). The Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to cause that such second Appraisal is delivered within thirty (30) days from receipt of the Requesting Holders’ written request and shall cause such Appraisal to be prepared on an “as-is” basis by an MAI appraiser (provided that such MAI appraiser may not be the same MAI appraiser that provided the Appraisal in respect of which the Requesting Holders are requesting the Special Servicer to obtain an additional Appraisal). With respect to any such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain

  -332-  

 

such second Appraisal from the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer and to forward such second Appraisal to the Special Servicer.

In addition, the Requesting Holders of any Appraised-Out Class shall have the right, at their sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order an additional Appraisal of any Serviced Mortgage Loan as to which there exists a Collateral Deficiency Amount if an event has occurred at, or with respect to, the related Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties that would have a material effect on its or their appraised value. The Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such additional Appraisal to be delivered within thirty (30) days from receipt of the Requesting Holders’ written request and shall cause such Appraisal to be prepared on an “as-is” basis by an MAI appraiser reasonably acceptable to the Special Servicer (provided that such MAI appraiser may not be the same MAI appraiser that provided the Appraisal in respect of which the Requesting Holders are requesting the Special Servicer to obtain an additional Appraisal).

(ii)                            Upon receipt of any supplemental Appraisal pursuant to clause (i) above, the Master Servicer (for Collateral Deficiency Amounts on Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans), the Non-Serviced Special Servicer (for Appraisal Reduction Amounts on Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans to extent provided for in the applicable Non-Serviced PSA and applicable Intercreditor Agreement) and the Special Servicer (for any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan)) shall determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, whether, based on its assessment of such supplemental Appraisal, any recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (as applicable) is warranted, and if so warranted, such Person shall recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, based on such supplemental Appraisal and (for any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan)) any information received from the Master Servicer. If required by such recalculation, the Appraised-Out Class shall be reinstated as the Controlling Class and each other Appraised-Out Class shall, if applicable, have its related Certificate Balance notionally restored to the extent required by such recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable. The Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Master Servicer’s calculation or determination of any Collateral Deficiency Amount with respect to Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans. Any Appraised-Out Class for which the Requesting Holders are challenging the Special Servicer’s Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount determination shall refrain from exercising any direction, control, consent and/or similar rights of the Controlling Class until such time, if any, as the Class is reinstated as the Controlling Class (such period beginning upon receipt by the Special Servicer of any request to obtain a supplemental Appraisal pursuant to clause (i) above to but excluding the date on which either (A) the Special Servicer determines that no recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount is warranted or (B) the Special Servicer recalculates the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, based on the supplemental Appraisal, the “Appraisal Review Period”). The rights of the Controlling Class during each Appraisal Review Period shall be exercised by the next most senior Class of Control Eligible Certificates, if any, during such period.

(c)               With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and each Serviced Whole Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred (unless such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan has become a Corrected Loan (for such purposes taking into account any amendment or modification of such Mortgage Loan, any related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan)), the Special Servicer shall (1) within thirty (30) days of the occurrence or of each anniversary of the related Appraisal Reduction Event, and (2) upon its determination that the value of the related Mortgaged Property has materially changed, notify the Master Servicer of the occurrence of such anniversary or determination and order an Appraisal (which may be an update of a prior Appraisal), the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance or to the extent it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, an expense of the Trust, or conduct an internal valuation, as applicable and, promptly following receipt of any such Appraisal or performance of such valuation (or receipt of any Appraisal obtained in accordance with Section 4.05(b) above), shall deliver a copy thereof to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party) the Directing Certificateholder. Based upon such Appraisal or internal valuation (or any Appraisal obtained in accordance with Section 4.05(b) above) and receipt of information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer from the Master Servicer that is in the possession of the Master Servicer and reasonably necessary to calculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount, the Special Servicer shall determine or redetermine, as applicable, and report to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party) the Directing Certificateholder, the amount and calculation or recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount with respect to such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, and such report shall be delivered in the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Template format; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be liable for failure to comply with such duties insofar as such failure results from a failure of the Master Servicer to provide sufficient information to the Special Servicer to comply with such duties or failure by the Master Servicer to otherwise comply with its obligations hereunder. Following the Master Servicer’s receipt from the Special Servicer of the calculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amounts, the Master Servicer shall provide such information to the Certificate Administrator in the form of the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File and the CREFC® Appraisal Reduction Template provided to it by the Special Servicer or such other report or reports mutually agreed upon between the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. Such report of the Appraisal Reduction Amount shall also be promptly forwarded by the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer if the related Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan), to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the Other Servicer and Other Trustee of such Other Securitization into which the related Serviced Companion Loan has been sold, or to the holder of any related Serviced Companion Loan by the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer if the related Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan). If the Special Servicer is required to redetermine the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, such redetermined Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount shall replace the prior Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, with respect to such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event

  -334-  

 

(and unless the related Mortgage Loan is an Excluded Loan as to such party), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Directing Certificateholder with respect to any Appraisal, valuation or downward adjustment in connection with an Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 4.05(b), the Special Servicer will not be required to obtain an Appraisal or conduct an internal valuation, as applicable, with respect to a Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred to the extent the Special Servicer has obtained an Appraisal or conducted such a valuation (in accordance with requirements of this Agreement), as applicable, with respect to the related Mortgaged Property within the twelve-month period immediately prior to the occurrence of such Appraisal Reduction Event. Instead, the Special Servicer may use such prior Appraisal or valuation, as applicable, in calculating any Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan; provided that the Special Servicer has no knowledge of any material change to the related Mortgaged Property having occurred and affecting the validity of such Appraisal or valuation.

The Master Servicer shall deliver by electronic mail to the Special Servicer any information in its possession or, with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, reasonably obtainable by the Master Servicer, that is reasonably required to determine, calculate, redetermine or recalculate any Appraisal Reduction Amount, using reasonable efforts to deliver such information, within four (4) Business Days following the Special Servicer’s reasonable request therefor; provided that the Special Servicer’s failure to timely make such request shall not relieve the Master Servicer of its obligation to use reasonable efforts to provide such information to the Special Servicer within four (4) Business Days following the Special Servicer’s reasonable request. The Master Servicer shall not calculate Appraisal Reduction Amounts.

(d)               Any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), any related Serviced Companion Loan and any Serviced Whole Loan previously subject to an Appraisal Reduction Amount, which has become a Corrected Loan (for such purposes taking into account any amendment or modification of such Mortgage Loan, any related Serviced Companion Loan and any Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable), and with respect to which no other Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred and is continuing, will no longer be subject to an Appraisal Reduction Amount. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be calculated by the applicable party under and in accordance with and pursuant to the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced PSA.

(e)               Each Serviced Whole Loan will be treated as a single Mortgage Loan for purposes of calculating an Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to the Mortgage Loan and Companion Loan(s) that comprise such Serviced Whole Loan. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of a Serviced AB Whole Loan will be allocated in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement or, if no allocation is specified in the related Intercreditor Agreement, then, first, to the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan (until its principal balance is notionally reduced to zero by such Appraisal Reduction Amounts) and second, pro rata, between the related Serviced AB Mortgage Loan and any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan will be allocated in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement or, if no allocation is specified in the related Intercreditor Agreement, then, pro rata, between the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan

  -335-  

 

and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, based upon their respective outstanding principal balances.

Section 4.06        Grantor Trust Reporting. (a) The parties intend that the portions of the Trust Fund constituting the Grantor Trust, shall constitute, and that the affairs of the Grantor Trust shall be conducted so as to qualify such portion as, a “grantor trust” under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code, and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. In furtherance of such intention, neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall have the power to vary the investment of the Holders of the Exchangeable Certificates in the Grantor Trust so as to improve their rate of return. The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared, submit to the Trustee for execution (and the Trustee shall timely execute and timely return to the Certificate Administrator) and timely file all Tax Returns in respect of the Grantor Trust. In addition, the Certificate Administrator shall (A) file, or cause to be filed, IRS Form 1041, IRS Form 1099 or such other form as may be applicable with the IRS with copies of the statements in the following clause, (B) furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Holder of the Excess Interest Certificates their allocable share of income and expense with respect to the Excess Interest and Excess Interest Distribution Account, in the time or times and in the manner required by the Code, and (C) furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Holders of the Exchangeable Certificates, their allocable share of income and expense with respect to the Exchangeable Upper-Tier REMIC Regular Interests, in the time or times and in the manner required by the Code.

(b)               As of the Closing Date, the Grantor Trust is a WHFIT that is a WHMT. Therefore, the Certificate Administrator will report as required under the WHFIT Regulations, to the extent such information as is reasonably necessary to enable the Certificate Administrator to do so is provided to the Certificate Administrator on a timely basis. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to rely on the first sentence of this Section 4.06(b) and shall be entitled to indemnification in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in the event that the IRS makes a determination that such information provided by the first sentence of this paragraph is incorrect.

(c)               The Certificate Administrator shall report required WHFIT information using the accrual method, except to the extent the WHFIT Regulations specifically require a different method. The Certificate Administrator shall be under no obligation to determine whether any Certificateholder uses the cash or accrual method. The Certificate Administrator shall make available (via its website) WHFIT information to Certificateholders annually. In addition, the Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible or liable for providing subsequently amended, revised or updated information to any Certificateholder, unless requested by the Certificateholder.

(d)               The Certificate Administrator shall not be liable for failure to meet the reporting requirements of the WHFIT Regulations nor for any penalties thereunder if such failure is due to: (i) the lack of reasonably necessary information being provided to the Certificate Administrator or (ii) incomplete, inaccurate or untimely information being provided to the Certificate Administrator. Each Holder of an Exchangeable Certificate, by acceptance of its interest in such Class of securities, will be deemed to have agreed to provide the Certificate Administrator with information regarding any sale of such securities, including the price, amount of proceeds and date of sale. Absent receipt of information regarding any sale of an Exchangeable Certificate, including the price, amount of proceeds and date of sale from the beneficial owner

  -336-  

 

thereof or the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator shall assume there is no secondary market trading of WHFIT interests.

(e)               To the extent required by the WHFIT Regulations, the Certificate Administrator shall use reasonable efforts to publish on an appropriate website the CUSIP for the Exchangeable Certificates. The CUSIP so published shall represent the Rule 144A CUSIP (in the case of the Exchangeable Certificates). The Certificate Administrator shall make reasonable good faith efforts to keep the website accurate and updated to the extent such CUSIP has been received. Absent the receipt of such CUSIP, the Certificate Administrator will use a reasonable identifier number in lieu of a CUSIP. The Certificate Administrator shall not be liable for investor reporting delays that result from the receipt of inaccurate or untimely CUSIP information.

Section 4.07        Investor Q&A Forum; Investor Registry; and Rating Agency Q&A Forum and Document Request Tool. (a) The Certificate Administrator shall make available, only to Privileged Persons, the Investor Q&A Forum. The “Investor Q&A Forum” shall be a service available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, where (i) Certificateholders and beneficial owners of Certificates that are Privileged Persons may submit questions to (A) the Certificate Administrator relating to the Distribution Date Statement, (B) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, relating to the reports being made available pursuant to Section 3.13(b) and Section 3.13(e), the Mortgage Loans (excluding any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or the related Mortgaged Properties or (C) the Operating Advisor relating to the Operating Advisor Annual Report or other reports prepared by the Operating Advisor or actions by the Special Servicer referenced in any Operating Advisor Annual Report (each an “Inquiry” and collectively, “Inquiries”), and (ii) Privileged Persons may view Inquiries that have been previously submitted and answered, together with the answers thereto. Upon receipt of an Inquiry for the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and in the case of any Inquiry relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, the Certificate Administrator shall forward the Inquiry to the appropriate person (in the case of the Master Servicer to the following: REAM_InvestorRelations@wellsfargo.com), in each case within a commercially reasonable period of time following receipt thereof. Following receipt of an Inquiry, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, unless such party determines not to answer such Inquiry as provided below, shall reply to the Inquiry, which reply of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator by electronic mail. In the case of an Inquiry relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Certificate Administrator shall make reasonable efforts to obtain an answer from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable; provided that the Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible for the content of such answer or any delay or failure to obtain such answer. The Certificate Administrator shall post (within a commercially reasonable period of time following preparation or receipt of such answer, as the case may be) such Inquiry and the related answer to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. If the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor determines, in its respective sole discretion, that (i) any Inquiry is beyond the scope of the topics described above, (ii) answering any Inquiry would not be in the best interests of the Trust and/or the Certificateholders, (iii) answering any Inquiry would be in violation of applicable law, the applicable Mortgage Loan documents or this Agreement, (iv) answering any Inquiry would materially increase the duties of,

  -337-  

 

or result in significant additional cost or expense to, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, (v) answering any Inquiry would require the disclosure of Privileged Information (subject to the Privileged Information Exception), (vi) that answering the Inquiry would or is reasonably expected to result in a waiver of an attorney-client privilege or disclosure of attorney work product or (vii) answering any Inquiry is otherwise, for any reason, not advisable, it shall not be required to answer such Inquiry and, in the case of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of such determination. In addition, no party shall post or otherwise disclose any direct communications with the Directing Certificateholder as part of its response to any Inquiries. The Certificate Administrator shall notify the Person who submitted such Inquiry in the event that the Inquiry will not be answered. Any notice by the Certificate Administrator to the Person who submitted an Inquiry that will not be answered shall include the following statement: “Because the Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Operating Advisor shall not answer an Inquiry if it determines, in its respective sole discretion, that (i) any Inquiry is beyond the scope of the topics described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (ii) answering any Inquiry would not be in the best interests of the Trust and/or the Certificateholders, (iii) answering any Inquiry would be in violation of applicable law or the applicable Mortgage Loan documents, (iv) answering any Inquiry would materially increase the duties of, or result in significant additional costs or expenses to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or Operating Advisor, as applicable, (v) answering any Inquiry would require the disclosure of Privileged Information, or (vi) answering any Inquiry is otherwise, for any reason, not advisable, no inference should or may be drawn from the fact that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor has declined to answer the Inquiry.” Answers posted on the Investor Q&A Forum will be attributable only to the respondent, and shall not be deemed to be answers from any of the Depositor, the Underwriters or any of their respective Affiliates. None of the Underwriters, Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor or any of their respective Affiliates will certify to any of the information posted in the Investor Q&A Forum and no such party shall have any responsibility or liability for the content of any such information. The Certificate Administrator shall not be required to post to the Certificate Administrator’s Website any Inquiry or answer thereto that the Certificate Administrator determines, in its sole discretion, is administrative or ministerial in nature. The Investor Q&A Forum will not reflect questions, answers and other communications that are not submitted via the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall not be required to respond to any Inquiries from Certificateholders for which its response would require the Operating Advisor to provide information to such inquiring Certificateholders that they are otherwise not entitled to receive under the terms of this Agreement.

(b)               The Certificate Administrator shall make available to any Certificateholder and any Certificate Owner that is a Privileged Person, the Investor Registry.

Any person registering to use the Investor Registry shall certify that (a) it is a Certificateholder or a Certificate Owner and a Privileged Person and (b) it grants authorization to the Certificate Administrator to make its name and contact information available on the Investor

  -338-

Such Person shall then be asked to enter certain mandatory fields such as the individual’s name, the company name and email address, as well as certain optional fields such as address, phone, and Class(es) of Certificates owned. If any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner notifies the Certificate Administrator that it wishes to be removed from the Investor Registry (which notice may not be within forty-five (45) days of its registration), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly remove it from the Investor Registry. The Certificate Administrator will not be responsible for verifying or validating any information submitted on the Investor Registry, or for monitoring or otherwise maintaining the accuracy of any information thereon. The Certificate Administrator may require acceptance of a waiver and disclaimer for access to the Investor Registry.

(c)               The 17g-5 Information Provider shall make available, only to NRSROs, the Rating Agency Q&A Forum and Document Request Tool. The “Rating Agency Q&A Forum and Document Request Tool” shall be a service available on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, where NRSROs may (i) submit questions to the Certificate Administrator relating to any Distribution Date Statements, or submit questions to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, relating to the reports prepared by such parties (each such submission, a “Rating Agency Inquiry”), and (ii) view Rating Agency Inquiries that have been previously submitted and answered, together with the responses thereto. In addition, NRSROs may use the forum to submit requests (each such submission also, a “Rating Agency Inquiry”) to the Master Servicer for loan-level reports and other related information.

(b)               One authorized signatory shall sign the Certificates for the Certificate Registrar by manual or facsimile signature.

If a transfer (other than one by the Depositor to an Affiliate thereof or by the Initial Purchasers to the Third Party Purchaser) is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act, and under the applicable state securities laws, then the following subsections (a)-(d) shall apply.

(a)               Each Class of the Non-Registered Certificates sold to institutions that are non-United States Securities Persons in Offshore Transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Act shall initially be represented by a temporary book-entry certificate in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons, substantially in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto (each a “Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate”), which shall be deposited on the Closing Date on behalf of the purchasers of the Non-Registered Certificates represented thereby with the Certificate Registrar, at its principal trust office, as custodian, for the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of the Depository for the account of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear and/or Clearstream.

After the expiration of the Restricted Period, a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate may be exchanged for an interest in the related Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.03(f). During the Restricted Period, distributions due in respect of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate shall only be made upon delivery to the Certificate Registrar by Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, of a Non-U.S. Beneficial Ownership Certification. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, distributions due in respect of any beneficial interests in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate shall not be made to the holders of such beneficial interests unless exchange for a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class is improperly withheld or refused. The aggregate Certificate Balance of a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or a Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, as hereinafter provided;

On the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, and the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificates, which shall be held by the Certificate Registrar for purposes of effecting the exchanges contemplated by the preceding paragraph. Computershare Trust Company, National Association is hereby initially appointed the Authenticating Agent with

  -342-  

 

the power to act, on the Trustee’s behalf, in the authentication and delivery of the Certificates in connection with transfers and exchanges as herein provided.

If the Authenticating Agent is terminated, the Trustee shall appoint a successor authenticating agent, which may be the Trustee or an Affiliate thereof.

(b)               Certificates of each Class of Non-Registered Certificates (other than any Risk Retention Certificates during the Transfer Restriction Period) offered and sold to Qualified Institutional Buyers in reliance on Rule 144A shall be represented by Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificates, which shall be deposited with the Certificate Registrar or an agent of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or a nominee of the Depository. The aggregate Certificate Balance of a Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, as hereinafter provided.

(c)               Certificates of each Class of Non-Registered Certificates that are initially offered and sold to investors that are Institutional Accredited Investors that are not Qualified Institutional Buyers (the “Non-Book Entry Certificates”) shall be in the form of Definitive Certificates substantially in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto, and shall be registered in the name of such investors or their nominees by the Certificate Registrar who shall deliver the certificates for such Non-Book Entry Certificates to the respective beneficial owners or owners. Additionally, the Class R Certificates shall only be in the form of Definitive Certificates, and the Risk Retention Certificates shall be issued in the form of Definitive Certificates at all times during the Transfer Restriction Period.

(d)               Owners of beneficial interests in Book-Entry Certificates of any Class shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated Certificates unless: (i) the Depository advises the Certificate Registrar in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as depository with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates of such Class or ceases to be a Clearing Agency, and the Certificate Registrar and the Depository are unable to locate a qualified successor within ninety (90) days of such notice or (ii) the Trustee has instituted or has been directed to institute any judicial proceeding to enforce the rights of the Holders of such Class and the Trustee has been advised by counsel that in connection with such proceeding it is necessary or appropriate for the Certificate Registrar to obtain possession of the Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that under no circumstances will certificated Non-Registered Certificates be issued to beneficial owners of a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate. Upon notice of the occurrence of any of the events described in clause (i) or (ii) above with respect to any Certificates of a Class that are in the form of Book-Entry Certificates and upon surrender by the Depository of any Book-Entry Certificate of such Class and receipt from the Depository of instructions for re-registration, the Certificate Registrar shall issue Certificates of such Class in the form of Definitive Certificates (bearing, in the case of a Definitive Certificate issued for a Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate, the same legends regarding transfer restrictions borne by such Book-Entry Certificate), and thereafter the Certificate Registrar shall recognize the Holders of such Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders under this Agreement. Unless and until Definitive Certificates are issued in respect of a Class of Book-Entry Certificates, beneficial ownership interests in such Class of Certificates will be maintained and transferred on

  -343-  

 

the book entry records of the Depository and Depository Participants, and all references to actions by Holders of such Class of Certificates will refer to action taken by the Depository upon instructions received from the related registered Holders of Certificates through the Depository Participants in accordance with the Depository’s procedures and, except as otherwise set forth herein, all references herein to payments, notices, reports and statements to Holders of such Class of Certificates will refer to payments, notices, reports and statements to the Depository or its nominee as the registered Holder thereof, for distribution to the related registered Holders of Certificates through the Depository Participants in accordance with the Depository’s procedures.

(e)               From and after the Closing Date and during the Transfer Restriction Period, the Risk Retention Certificates shall only be held as Definitive Certificates and shall be held in the Retained Certificate Safekeeping Account by the Certificate Administrator (and the Retaining Party’s respective interest shall be tracked in the form of an entry in the Certificate Administrator’s trust accounting system under the Retained Certificate Safekeeping Account), as custodian for, and for the benefit of, the Holder of the related Certificate. The Certificate Administrator shall hold the Risk Retention Certificates in safekeeping and shall release the same only upon receipt of written instructions from the Holder of the Risk Retention Certificates and the Retaining Sponsor, indicating whether such release is in connection with the termination of the Transfer Restriction Period or in connection with the Retaining Party’s intent to transfer pursuant to Section 5.03(i), in each case, in accordance with any additional authentication procedures as may be utilized by the Certificate Administrator and in accordance with this Agreement.  After its release of the Risk Retention Certificates in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall have no obligation or liability with respect to the safekeeping of the Risk Retention Certificates. There shall be, and hereby is, established by the Certificate Administrator an account which will be designated the “Retained Certificate Safekeeping Account” and in which the Risk Retention Certificates shall be held and which shall be governed by and subject to this Agreement.  In addition, on and after the date hereof, the Certificate Administrator may establish any number of subaccounts to the Retained Certificate Safekeeping Account for the Retaining Party.  Such subaccounts shall be marked or evidenced as being for the benefit of the Holder of the related Certificate. The Risk Retention Certificates to be delivered in physical form to the Certificate Administrator shall be delivered as set forth herein. No amounts distributable to the Holders of the Risk Retention Certificates shall be remitted to the Retained Certificate Safekeeping Account, but shall be remitted directly to the Retaining Party in accordance with written instructions provided separately by the Retaining Party to the Certificate Administrator on the Closing Date.  Under no circumstances by virtue of safekeeping the Risk Retention Certificates shall the Certificate Administrator be obligated to bring legal action or institute proceedings against any person on behalf of the Retaining Party. During the Transfer Restriction Period and for such longer time as the Retaining Party may request, the Certificate Administrator shall hold the Definitive Certificates representing the Risk Retention Certificates at the below location, or any other location; provided the Certificate Administrator has given notice to the Retaining Party of such new location:

The Certificate Administrator shall make available to the Retaining Party its respective account information as mutually agreed upon by the Certificate Administrator and the Retaining Party, and in accordance with the Certificate Administrator’s policies and procedures.

procedures from a Depository Participant directing the Certificate Registrar to credit, or cause to be credited, a beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate to be exchanged, (2) a written order given in accordance with the Depository’s procedures containing information regarding the Euroclear or Clearstream account to be credited with such increase and the name of such account and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit I hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest stating that the transfer of such interest has been made in compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Book-Entry Certificates and pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S, then the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository to reduce, or cause to be reduced, the Certificate Balance of the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate and to increase, or cause to be increased, the Certificate Balance of the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Balance of the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate to be exchanged, to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions (who shall be the agent member of Euroclear or Clearstream, or both) a beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate equal to the reduction in the Certificate Balance of the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate, and to debit, or cause to be debited, from the account of the Person making such exchange or transfer the beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate that is being exchanged or transferred.

(d)               Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate to Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate.

(e)               Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate.  If a holder of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate deposited with the Certificate Registrar as custodian for the Depository wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate for an interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class, or to transfer its interest in such Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to a Person who is required to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, and the Depository, exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class. Upon receipt by the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, at its office designated in Section 5.07, of (1) instructions from Euroclear or Clearstream, if applicable, and the Depository, directing the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate equal to the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to be exchanged, such instructions to contain information regarding the participant account with the Depository to be credited with such increase, (2) with respect to a transfer of an interest in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, information regarding the participant account of the Depository to be debited with such decrease and (3) with respect to a transfer of an interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate for an interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate (i) during the Restricted Period, a certificate in the form of Exhibit K hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest and stating that the Person transferring such interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate reasonably believes that the Person acquiring such interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate is a Qualified Institutional Buyer or (ii) after the Restricted Period, an Investment Representation Letter in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto from the transferee to the effect that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Buyer (an “Investment Representation Letter”) and is obtaining such beneficial interest in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, then the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository to reduce, or cause to be reduced, the Certificate Balance of the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate and to increase, or cause to be increased, the Certificate Balance of the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Balance of the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to be exchanged, and the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository, concurrently with such reduction, to credit, or cause to be credited, to the account of the Person specified in such instructions, a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate equal to the reduction in the Certificate Balance of the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate and to debit, or cause to be debited, from the account of the Person making such transfer the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate that is being transferred.

(f)                Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate. Interests in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate as to which the Certificate Registrar has received from Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, a certificate (a “Non-U.S. Beneficial Ownership Certification”) to the effect that Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, has received a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L hereto from the holder of a beneficial interest in such Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, shall be exchanged after the Restricted Period, for interests in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class. The Certificate Registrar shall effect such exchange by delivering to the Depository for credit to the respective accounts of such holders, a duly executed and authenticated Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, representing the aggregate Certificate Balance of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate initially exchanged for interests in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate. The delivery to the Certificate Registrar by Euroclear or Clearstream of the certificate or certificates referred to above may be relied upon by the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar as conclusive evidence that the certificate or certificates referred to therein has or have been delivered to Euroclear or Clearstream pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate. Upon any exchange of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate for interests in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall endorse the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to reflect the reduction in the Certificate Balance represented thereby by the amount so exchanged and shall endorse the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to reflect the corresponding increase in the amount represented thereby. Until so exchanged in full and except as provided therein, the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, and the Certificates evidenced thereby, shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate and Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate authenticated and delivered hereunder.

(g)               Non-Book Entry Certificate to Book-Entry Certificate. If a holder of a Non-Book Entry Certificate (other than (a) a Risk Retention Certificate during the Transfer Restriction Period or (b) a Class R Certificate) wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Non-Book Entry Certificate for an interest in a Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class, or to transfer all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate to a Person who is entitled to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in a Book-Entry Certificate, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream, if applicable, and the Depository, cause the exchange of all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate for an equivalent beneficial interest in the appropriate Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class. Upon receipt by the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, at its office designated in Section 5.07, of (1) such Non-Book Entry Certificate, duly endorsed as provided herein, (2) instructions from such holder directing the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, to credit, or cause to be credited, a beneficial interest in the applicable Book-Entry Certificate equal to the portion of the Certificate Balance of the Non-Book Entry Certificate to be exchanged, such instructions to contain information regarding the participant account with the Depository to be credited with such increase and (3) a certificate in the form of Exhibit M hereto (in the event that the applicable Book-Entry Certificate is the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate), in the form of Exhibit N hereto (in the event that the applicable Book-Entry Certificate is the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate) or in the form of Exhibit O hereto (in the event that the applicable Book-Entry Certificate is the Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate), then the Certificate Registrar, as registrar, shall cancel, or cause to be canceled, all or part of such Non-Book Entry Certificate, shall, if applicable, execute, authenticate and deliver to the transferor

  -348-  

 

a new Non-Book Entry Certificate equal to the aggregate Certificate Balance of the portion retained by such transferor and shall instruct the Depository to increase, or cause to be increased, such Book-Entry Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Balance of the portion of the Non-Book Entry Certificate to be exchanged and to credit, or cause to be credited, to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the applicable Book-Entry Certificate equal to the Certificate Balance of the portion of the Non-Book Entry Certificate so canceled. Upon the written direction of the Depositor (which may be by email to CCTCMBSBondAdmin@computershare.com) or its Affiliate, the Certificate Registrar shall execute any instrument as may be reasonably required by the Depository to effect such exchange.

(h)               Non-Book Entry Certificates on Initial Issuance Only. Subject to the issuance of Definitive Certificates, if and when permitted by Section 5.02(d), and subject to the issuance and transfer of a Risk Retention Certificate during the Transfer Restriction Period in accordance with Section 5.03(i), no Non-Book Entry Certificate shall be issued to a transferee of an interest in any Rule 144A Book-Entry Certificate, Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or to a transferee of a Non-Book Entry Certificate (or any portion thereof).

(i)                 Transfers of Risk Retention Certificates. During a Transfer Restriction Period, if a Transfer of any Risk Retention Certificate after the Closing Date is to be made, then the following documents shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator, who shall facilitate such transfer in conjunction with the Certificate Registrar and shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and, upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) (i) instruction from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and the Retaining Sponsor pursuant to Section 5.02(e) directing the Certificate Administrator to release such Risk Retention Certificate from the Retained Certificate Safekeeping Account in connection with a transfer of such Risk Retention Certificate, (ii) a certification from such Certificateholder’s prospective Transferee substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-3, which such certification must be countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor, (iii) a certification from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-4, which such certification must be countersigned by the Retaining Sponsor, (iv) an IRS Form W-9 completed by the prospective Transferee and (v) wiring instructions and contact information of the prospective Transferee. After the Transfer Restriction Period, and for so long as the Risk Retention Certificate, as applicable, is not held in safekeeping, the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register any Transfer unless it receives (x) a certification from such Certificateholder’s prospective Transferee substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-3 and (y) a certification from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-4; provided that after the Transfer Restriction Period, the countersignature of the Retaining Sponsor to such certifications shall not be required. Upon receipt of the foregoing certifications, the Certificate Registrar shall, subject to Section 5.02(e) and Section 5.03(n), reflect such Risk Retention Certificate, in the name of the prospective Transferee. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall a Risk Retention Certificate be held as a Book-Entry Certificate during the Transfer Restriction Period. Any attempted or purported transfer in violation of this Section 5.03(i) shall be null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in any purported transferee and shall not relieve the transferor of any obligations with respect to the applicable portion of the Horizontal Risk Retention Certificates.

  -349-  

 

(j)                 Other Exchanges. In the event that a Book-Entry Certificate is exchanged for a Definitive Certificate, such Certificates may be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of subsections (c) through (f) above (including the certification requirements intended to ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Act, at the case may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Certificate Registrar.

(k)               Restricted Period. Prior to the termination of the Restricted Period with respect to the issuance of the Certificates, transfers of interests in the Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate to U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S) shall be limited to transfers made pursuant to the provisions of subsection (e) above.

(l)                 If Non-Registered Certificates are issued upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Certificates bearing a restrictive legend relating to compliance with the Act, or if a request is made to remove such legend on Certificates, the Non-Registered Certificates so issued shall bear the restrictive legend, or such legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar such satisfactory evidence, which may include an Opinion of Counsel that neither such legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A or Regulation S under the Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver Certificates that do not bear such legend.

(m)             All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be canceled and subsequently destroyed by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with the Certificate Registrar’s customary procedures.

(n)               With respect to the ERISA Restricted Certificates, no sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition (other than any initial transfer to the Initial Purchasers or, with respect to the Risk Retention Certificates, the Retaining Party) of any such Certificate shall be made unless the Trustee and Certificate Administrator shall have received either (i) a representation letter from the proposed purchaser or transferee of such Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 attached hereto, to the effect that such proposed purchaser or transferee is not and will not be (A) an employee benefit plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA or a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code, or a governmental plan (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA) or other plan subject to any federal, state or local law (“Similar Law”) which is, to a material extent, similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (each, a “Plan”) or (B) a person acting on behalf of or using the assets of any such Plan (including an entity whose underlying assets include Plan assets by reason of investment in the entity by such Plan and the application of Department of Labor Regulation § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA), other than an insurance company using the assets of its general account under circumstances whereby the purchase and holding of such Certificates by such insurance company will be exempt from the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and the Code under Sections I and III of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 (or, in the case of a Plan subject to Similar Law, where the purchase, holding and disposition of such Certificate will not constitute or result in a non-exempt violation of Similar Law) or (ii) if such Certificate is presented for registration in the name of a purchaser or transferee that is any of the foregoing, an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Depositor to the effect that the

  -350-  

 

acquisition and holding of such Certificate by such purchaser or transferee will not constitute or result in a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” within the meaning of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a non-exempt violation of any Similar Law, and will not subject the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any sub-servicer, the Initial Purchasers, the Underwriters, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Depositor to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any such Similar Law) in addition to those set forth in the Agreement. The Trustee and Certificate Administrator shall not register the sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of any ERISA Restricted Certificate unless the Trustee and Certificate Administrator have received either the representation letter described in clause (i) above or the Opinion of Counsel described in clause (ii) above. The costs of any of the foregoing representation letters or Opinions of Counsel shall not be borne by any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any sub-servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Initial Purchasers, the Underwriters, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trust. Each Certificate Owner of an ERISA Restricted Certificate shall be deemed to represent that it is not and will not become a Person specified in clauses (i)(A) or (i)(B) above. Any transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any ERISA Restricted Certificates that would constitute or result in a prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a non-exempt violation of any Similar Law, or would otherwise violate the provisions of this Section 5.03(n) shall be deemed absolutely null and void ab initio, to the extent permitted under applicable law.

(o)               No Class R Certificate may be purchased by or transferred to any prospective purchaser or transferee that is or will be a Plan, or any person acting on behalf of a Plan or using the assets of a Plan (including an entity whose underlying assets include Plan assets by reason of investment in the entity by such Plan and the application of Department of Labor Regulation § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) to purchase such Class R Certificate. Each prospective transferee of a Class R Certificate shall deliver to the transferor and the Certificate Administrator a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2, stating that the prospective transferee is not and will not become a Plan or a person acting on behalf of or using the assets of a Plan (including an entity whose underlying assets include Plan assets by reason of investment in the entity by such Plan and the application of Department of Labor Regulation § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA). Each Holder of a Class R Certificate shall be deemed to represent that it is not and will not become a Person specified in the second preceding sentence. Any attempted or purported transfer in violation of these transfer restrictions shall be null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in any purported transferee and shall not relieve the transferor of any obligations with respect to the applicable Certificates.

(p)               Each Person who has or acquires any Residual Ownership Interest shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Residual Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and the rights of each Person acquiring any Residual Ownership Interest are expressly subject to the following provisions:

(i)                 Each Person acquiring or holding any Residual Ownership Interest shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall not acquire or hold such Residual Ownership Interest as agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) on behalf of any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee. Any such Person shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of

  -351-  

 

any change or impending change in its status (or the status of the beneficial owner of such Residual Ownership Interest) as a Permitted Transferee. Any acquisition described in the first sentence of this Section 5.03(p) by a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee or by a Person who is acting as an agent of a Person who is not a Permitted Transferee shall be void ab initio and of no effect, and the immediately preceding owner who was a Permitted Transferee shall be restored to registered and beneficial ownership of the Residual Ownership Interest as soon and as fully as possible.

(ii)              No Residual Ownership Interest may be Transferred, and no such Transfer shall be registered in the Certificate Register, without the express written consent of the Certificate Registrar, and the Certificate Registrar shall not recognize the Transfer, and such proposed Transfer shall not be effective, without such consent with respect thereto. In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Residual Ownership Interest, the Certificate Registrar shall, as a condition to such consent, (x) require the proposed transferee to deliver, and the proposed transferee shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar and to the proposed transferor, an affidavit in substantially the form attached as Exhibit D-1 (a “Transferee Affidavit”) of the proposed transferee (A) that such proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee and (B) stating that (1) the proposed transferee historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to do so in the future, (2) the proposed transferee understands that, as the holder of a Residual Ownership Interest, it may incur tax liabilities in excess of cash flows generated by the residual interest, (3) the proposed transferee intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Residual Ownership Interest as they become due, (4) the proposed transferee will not cause income with respect to the Residual Ownership Interest to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of such proposed transferee or any other U.S. Tax Person, (5) the proposed transferee will not transfer the Residual Ownership Interest to any Person that does not provide a Transferee Affidavit or as to which the proposed transferee has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee or is acting as an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, and (6) the proposed transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of this Section 5.03(p) and (y) other than in connection with the initial issuance of a Class R Certificate, require a statement from the proposed transferor substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D-2 (the “Transferor Letter”), that the proposed transferor has no actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee and has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the proposed transferee’s statements in its Transferee Affidavit are false.

(iii)            Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed transferee under clause (ii) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer to such proposed transferee shall be effected and such proposed Transfer shall not be registered on the Certificate Register; provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar shall not be required to conduct any independent investigation to determine whether a proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee. Upon notice to the Certificate Registrar that there has occurred a Transfer to any Person that is a Disqualified Organization or an agent thereof (including a broker, nominee or middleman) in contravention of the foregoing restrictions, and in any event not later than sixty (60) days after a request for information

  -352-

In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 5.04, the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum

The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary; provided, however, that to the extent that a party to this Agreement responsible for distributing any report, statement or other information required to be distributed to Certificateholders has been provided an Investor Certification, such party to this Agreement shall distribute such report, statement or other information to such beneficial owner (or prospective transferee).

In addition, upon written request to the Certificate Administrator of any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner (if applicable) that has provided an Investor Certification, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly notify such Certificateholder or Certificate Owner of the identity of then-current Directing Certificateholder. Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees that the Certificate Registrar shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the list of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which information was derived. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Depositor shall be entitled to a list of the names and addresses of Certificateholders from time to time upon request therefor.

The Certificate Administrator shall not have any obligation to verify the information provided by any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner in any request to communicate and may rely on such information conclusively. Additionally, any expenses the Certificate Administrator incurs in connection with any request to communicate will be paid by the Trust.

Section 5.07        Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Certificate Registrar shall maintain or cause to be maintained an office or offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Certificate Registrar in respect of the Certificates and this Agreement may be served. The Certificate Registrar initially designates its office at 1505 Energy Park Drive, St. Paul, Minnesota 55108 as its office for such purposes.

Section 5.09        [RESERVED]

Section 5.10        Voting Procedures. With respect to any matters submitted to Certificateholders for a vote, the Certificate Administrator shall administer such vote through the Depository with respect to Book-Entry Certificates and directly with registered Holders by mail with respect to Definitive Certificates. In each case, such vote shall be administered in accordance with the following procedures, unless different procedures are otherwise described herein with respect to a specific vote:

(a)               Any matter submitted to Certificateholders for a vote shall be announced in a notice prepared by the Certificate Administrator. Such notice shall include the record date determined by the Certificate Administrator for purposes of the vote and a voting deadline which shall be no less than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is distributed. The notice and related ballot shall be sent to Holders of Book-Entry Certificates through the Depository and by mail to the registered Holders of Definitive Certificates. In addition, the notice and related ballot shall be posted to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Notices delivered in this manner shall be considered delivered to all Holders regardless of whether any Holder actually receives the notice and ballot.

(b)               In connection with any vote administered pursuant to this Agreement, voting Holders shall certify their holdings in the manner set forth on the ballot, unless a specific manner is otherwise provided herein. Holders may only vote in accordance with their Voting

  -357-  

 

Rights. Voting Rights with respect to any outstanding Class of Certificates shall be calculated by the Certificate Administrator in accordance with the definition of Voting Rights as of the record date for the vote. Only Classes with an outstanding Certificate Balance greater than zero as of the record date of the vote shall be permitted to vote. Once a Holder has cast its vote, the vote may be changed or retracted on or before the vote deadline. Any changes or retractions shall be communicated by the Certificateholder to the Certificate Administrator in writing on a ballot. After the vote deadline has passed, votes may not be changed or retracted by any Holder unless the Holder wishing to change or retract its vote holds a sufficient portion of the Voting Rights such that the Holder, by its vote alone, could approve or deny the proposition subject to a vote without taking into consideration the votes cast by any other Holder. Transferees or purchasers of any Class of Certificates are subject to and shall be bound by all votes of Holders initiated or conducted prior to its acquisition of such Certificate.

(c)               The Certificate Administrator may take up to fifteen (15) Business Days to tabulate the results of any vote. The Certificate Administrator shall use its reasonable efforts to resolve any illegible or incomplete ballots received prior to the voting deadline. Illegible or incomplete ballots that are received on the voting deadline or that cannot be resolved by the voting deadline shall not be counted. Promptly after the votes are tabulated, the Certificate Administrator shall prepare a notice announcing the results of the vote. Such notice shall include the percentage of Voting Rights in favor of the proposition, the percentage against the proposition and the percentage abstaining. In addition, the notice will announce whether the proposition has been adopted by Certificateholders. The notice shall be distributed in accordance with the methods described in Section 5.10(a) above. The Certificate Administrator shall also include such notice on the Form 10-D prepared in connection with the distribution period that corresponds with the date such notice is distributed. All vote tabulations shall be final and the Certificate Administrator shall not, absent manifest error, re-tabulate the votes or conduct a new vote for the same proposition.

(d)               Any and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering any vote shall be borne by the Trust. The Certificate Administrator is under no obligation to advise Holders about the matter being voted on or answer questions other than process-related questions regarding the administration of the vote.

(e)               If any party to this Agreement believes a vote of Certificateholders is needed for some matter related to the administration of the Trust that is not specifically contemplated herein, such party may request the Certificate Administrator to conduct a vote and the Certificate Administrator will conduct the requested vote in accordance with these procedures. Unless specifically provided herein, all such votes require a majority of Certificateholders to carry a proposition.

Section 5.11        Exchangeable Certificates. (a) On the Closing Date, the Grantor Trust shall issue the several Classes of Exchangeable Certificates. Each Class of Exchangeable Certificates shall represent an undivided beneficial ownership interest in the Corresponding Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests in an amount equal to the Class Percentage Interest of such Class in each such Corresponding Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interest. All amounts allocated to an Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interest hereunder, including principal and

  -358-  

 

interest payable thereon, shall be allocated to the Classes of Exchangeable Certificates representing an interest therein, in proportion to their Class Percentage Interests therein.

(b)               Certificates of each Class of Exchangeable Certificates (each such Class, in connection with any exchange, an applicable “Surrendered Class”) may be exchanged on the books of DTC for Certificates of the corresponding Classes of Exchangeable Certificates set forth next to such Class in the table below (each, an applicable “Received Class”), and vice versa. The Denomination of each of the Received Classes of Certificates must be equal to the Denomination of each of the Surrendered Classes of Certificates. No fee shall be required with respect to any exchange of Exchangeable Certificates. Following any exchange of Certificates of one or more Surrendered Classes for Certificates of one or more Received Classes, the Class Percentage Interests in the Corresponding Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests that are represented by the Surrendered Classes (and consequently their related Certificate Balances or Notional Amounts) shall be decreased, and those of the Received Classes (and consequently their related Certificate Balances or Notional Amounts) shall be increased. The Certificate Administrator or Certificate Registrar, as applicable, shall (i) make the appropriate notation of such exchange on the Certificate Register and on the Book-Entry Certificate for each Class of Exchangeable Certificates involved in such exchange to reflect such reductions and increases and (ii) give appropriate instructions to the Depository to reflect such reductions and increases.

Surrendered Classes (or Received Classes) of Certificates	Received Classes (or Surrendered Classes) of Certificates
Class A-3	Class A-3-1, Class A-3-X1
Class A-3	Class A-3-2, Class A-3-X2
Class A-S	Class A-S-1, Class A-S-X1
Class A-S	Class A-S-2, Class A-S-X2
Class B	Class B-1, Class B-X1
Class B	Class B-2, Class B-X2
Class C	Class C-1, Class C-X1
Class C	Class C-2, Class C-X2

For example, a Certificateholder holding Class A-S Certificates with a Denomination of $115,657,000 may surrender Class A-S Certificates with a Denomination of $57,828,500 (the Certificates of the applicable Surrendered Class) and receive in exchange Class A-S-1 Certificates with a Denomination of $57,828,500 and Class A-S-X1 Certificates with a Denomination of $57,828,500 (collectively, the Certificates of the applicable Received Classes). In such event, (i) the Class Percentage Interest of the Class A-S Certificates in each of the Class A-S, Class A-S-X1 and Class A-S-X2 Upper-Tier Regular Interests would be reduced from 100% to 50%, (ii) the Class Percentage Interest of the Class A-S-1 Certificates in each of the Class A-S and Class A-S-X2 Upper-Tier Regular Interests would be increased from 0% to 50%, and (iii) the Class Percentage Interest of the Class A-S-X1 Certificates in the Class A-S-X1 Upper-Tier Regular Interest would be increased from 0% to 50%.

Similarly a Certificateholder holding Class A-S-1 Certificates with a Denomination of $57,828,500 that seeks to surrender all such Certificates in exchange for Class A-S Certificates will be required to surrender all such Certificates, as well as Class A-S-X1 Certificates with a Denomination of $57,828,500 in order to accomplish such exchange. In such event (assuming no

  -359-  

 

other Class A-S, Class A-S-1 and Class A-S-X1 Certificates are then outstanding), (i) the Class Percentage Interest of the Class A-S-1 Certificates in each of the Class A-S and Class A-S-X2 Upper-Tier Regular Interests would be reduced from 50% to 0%, (ii) the Class Percentage Interest of the Class A-S-X1 Certificates in the Class A-S-X1 Upper-Tier Regular Interest would be reduced from 50% to 0%, and (iii) the Class Percentage Interest of the Class A-S Certificates in each of the Class A-S, Class A-S-X1 and Class A-S-X2 Upper-Tier Regular Interests would be increased from 0% to 50%.

(c)               The maximum Certificate Balance or Notional Amount of each Class of Class A-3 Exchangeable Certificates that may be issued in an exchange is equal to the Certificate Balance of the Class A-3 Upper-Tier Regular Interest, the maximum Certificate Balance or Notional Amount of each Class of Class A-S Exchangeable Certificates that may be issued in an exchange is equal to the Certificate Balance of the Class A-S Upper-Tier Regular Interest, the maximum Certificate Balance or Notional Amount of each Class of Class B Exchangeable Certificates that may be issued in an exchange is equal to the Certificate Balance of the Class B Upper-Tier Regular Interest, and the maximum Certificate Balance or Notional Amount of each Class of Class C Exchangeable Certificates that may be issued in an exchange is equal to the Certificate Balance of the Class C Upper-Tier Regular Interest.

(d)               In order to effect an exchange of Exchangeable Certificates, the Certificateholder shall deliver a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit VV to the Certificate Administrator by e-mail to CCTCMBSBondAdmin@computershare.com (with a subject line referencing “BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6” and setting forth the proposed Exchange Date) no later than three (3) Business Days before the proposed exchange date (the “Exchange Date”). The Exchange Date may be any Business Day other than the first or last Business Day of the month. The notice must (i) be set forth on the applicable Certificateholder’s letterhead, (ii) carry a medallion stamp guarantee and (iii) set forth the following information: (x) the CUSIP number, outstanding Certificate Balance or Notional Amount and Original Certificate Balance or Original Notional Amount of each proposed Surrendered Class and of each proposed Received Class; (y) the Certificateholder’s DTC participant number; and (z) the proposed Exchange Date. A notice shall become irrevocable on the second Business Day before the proposed Exchange Date.

(e)               Upon the satisfaction of the conditions to an exchange described in this Section 5.11, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver Certificates of the applicable Received Classes to the requesting Certificateholder. The Certificate Administrator shall reduce the outstanding Certificate Balance(s) or Notional Amount(s) of the Surrendered Classes, and increase the outstanding Certificate Balance(s) or Notional Amount(s) of the Received Classes, on the Certificate Register. The Certificateholder and the Certificate Administrator shall utilize the “deposit and withdrawal system” at the Depository to effect the exchange.

(f)                The Certificate Administrator shall make the first distribution on Certificates of any Received Classes related to an exchange on the Distribution Date in the month following the month of exchange to the Certificateholder of record as of the applicable Record Date for such Certificates and Distribution Date. If an Exchange Date occurs in any month before the Distribution Date in such month, then any distributions to be made on such Distribution Date on Certificates of any Surrendered Classes shall be so made to the Certificateholders of record as of the applicable Record Date for such Certificates and such Distribution Date. Neither the

  -360-  

 

Certificate Administrator nor the Depositor shall have any obligation to ensure the availability in the market of the applicable Certificates to accomplish any exchange.

written notice to the other parties hereto, each certifying Certificateholder and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder.

Section 6.02        Liability of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(b)               Each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer may be merged or consolidated with or into any Person, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets (which may be limited to all or substantially all of its assets related to commercial mortgage loan servicing, commercial mortgage surveillance or asset representations review operations, as the case may be) to any Person, in which case any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer, shall be the successor of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer (such Person, in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, in each of the foregoing cases, the “Surviving Entity”), as the case may be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper (other than an assumption agreement wherein the successor shall agree to perform the obligations of and serve as the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that with respect to such merger, consolidation or succession, Rating Agency Confirmation is received from each Rating Agency with respect to the Classes of Certificates and, with respect to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, a confirmation is received from each applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates as described in Section 3.25); provided, further, that if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor enters into a merger and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, is the surviving entity under applicable law, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, shall not, as a result

  -367-  

 

of the merger, be required to provide a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to ratings of the Classes of Certificates or, with respect to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, a confirmation of the rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings; provided, further, that for so long as the Trust, and, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan included as part of the trust in a related Other Securitization, is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor notifies the Depositor in writing (a “Merger Notice”) of any such merger, consolidation, conversion or other change in form, and the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, notifies the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, in writing that the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, has discovered that such successor entity has not complied with its Exchange Act reporting obligations under any other commercial mortgage loan securitization (and specifically identifying the instance of noncompliance), then it shall be an additional condition to such succession that the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, shall have consented (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such successor entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor may remain the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, under this Agreement after (x) being merged or consolidated with or into any Person that is a Prohibited Party, or (y) transferring all or substantially all of its assets to any Person if such Person is a Prohibited Party, except to the extent (i) the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or Operating Advisor, as applicable, is the surviving entity of such merger, consolidation or transfer and has been and continues to be in compliance with its Regulation AB reporting obligations hereunder or (ii) the Depositor consents to such merger, consolidation or transfer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If, within sixty (60) days following the date of delivery of the Merger Notice to the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, the Depositor or depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, shall have failed to notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in writing of the Depositor’s determination, or depositor’s determination, in the case of an Other Securitization, to grant or withhold such consent, such failure shall be deemed to constitute a grant of such consent. If the conditions to the provisions in the second preceding sentence are not met, the Trustee may terminate, and if the conditions set forth in the third proviso of the third preceding sentence are not met the Trustee shall terminate, the applicable Surviving Entity’s servicing of the Mortgage Loans pursuant hereto, such termination to be effected in the manner set forth in Section 7.01.

(i)                 The Asset Representations Reviewer shall keep in full effect its existence and rights as an entity under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, and shall be in compliance with the laws of all jurisdictions to the extent necessary to perform its duties under this Agreement.

(ii)              Any Person into which the Asset Representations Reviewer may be merged or consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Asset Representations Reviewer, shall be the successor of the Asset Representations Reviewer hereunder, and shall be deemed to have assumed all of the liabilities and obligations of such Asset Representations Reviewer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein

  -368-  

 

to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the Trustee has received a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such successor or surviving Person.

(a) None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any of the partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees or agents of any of the foregoing shall be under any liability to the Trust, the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any such Person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of such party’s duties or by reason of negligent disregard of such party’s obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer, and any of the partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees or agents of any of the foregoing may rely on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent of any of the foregoing shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses and costs and expenses of litigation and of enforcement of this indemnity, and of investigation, counsel fees, damages, judgments and amounts paid in settlement) incurred in connection with any actual or threatened legal or administrative action (whether in equity or at law) or claim relating to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loans, the Companion Loans or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense: (i) specifically required to be borne thereby pursuant to the terms hereof; (ii) incurred in connection with any breach of a representation or warranty made by it herein; (iii) incurred by reason of bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence in the performance of its obligations or duties hereunder, or by reason of negligent disregard of such obligations or duties; or (iv) in the case of the Depositor and any of its partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees and agents, incurred in connection with any violation by any of them of any state or federal securities law.

Each of the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as

  -369-  

 

Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor conclusively may rely on, and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon, any resolution, officer’s certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, financial statement, agreement, appraisal, bond or other document (in electronic or paper format) as contemplated by and in accordance with this Agreement and reasonably believed or in good faith believed by the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Operating Advisor to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and each of them may consult with counsel, in which case any written advice of counsel or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection with respect to any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel.

(b)               None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal or administrative action (whether in equity or at law), proceeding, hearing or examination that is not incidental to its respective duties under this Agreement or which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability not recoverable from the Trust; provided, however, that each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer may in its discretion undertake any such action, proceeding, hearing or examination that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, the rights of the Certificateholders and the holders of a Serviced Companion Loan (as a collective whole) taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of such Serviced Companion Loan); provided, however, that if a Serviced Whole Loan and/or the holder of any related Companion Loan are involved, such expenses, costs and liabilities will be payable out of funds related to the applicable Serviced Whole Loan in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement and will also be payable out of the other funds in the Collection Account if amounts on deposit with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan are insufficient therefor. If any such expenses, costs or liabilities relate to a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, then any subsequent recovery on that Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, will be used to reimburse the Trust for any amounts advanced for the payment of such expenses, costs or liabilities. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action, proceeding, hearing or examination and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust, and the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans or the Companion Loan on deposit in the Collection Account (including, without duplication, any subaccount thereof), as provided by Section 3.05(a)(xii).

(c)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, agrees to indemnify the Depositor, the Trustee, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) (in the case of the Special Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the Master Servicer) and the Trust and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent thereof, and hold them

Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor from and against any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses incurred by the Depositor or its Affiliates that arise out of or are based upon, severally and not jointly (i) a breach by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of any obligation it has to deliver information to the 17g-5 Information Provider as set forth in this Agreement, including Section 3.07(a), Section 3.08, Section 3.09(e), Section 3.12, Section 3.17(c) and Section 3.18(g) or (ii) a breach by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of any obligation it has set forth in Section 3.13(d), Section 3.13(g) and Section 3.13(i).

(g)               Neither the Operating Advisor nor its Affiliates or any of the partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees or agents of the Operating Advisor shall be under any liability to any Certificateholder for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Operating Advisor against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of negligent disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.

(h)               The Asset Representations Reviewer agrees to indemnify the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor and the Trust and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent thereof, and hold them harmless, from and against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (for the avoidance of doubt, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and expenses relating to the enforcement of such indemnity) that any of them may sustain arising from or as a result of any willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Asset Representations Reviewer, in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement or by reason of negligent disregard by the Asset Representations Reviewer of its duties and obligations hereunder or by reason of breach of any representations or warranties made herein; provided that such indemnity shall not cover indirect or consequential damages. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Depositor, as the case may be, shall immediately notify the Asset Representations Reviewer if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans entitling the Trust to indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Asset Representations Reviewer shall assume the defense of such claim (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Depositor) and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or them in respect of such claim. Any failure to so notify the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not affect any rights any of the foregoing Persons may have to

  -373-  

 

indemnification under this Agreement or otherwise, unless the Asset Representations Reviewer’s defense of such claim is materially prejudiced thereby.

(i)                 The applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer, Non-Serviced Paying Agent, Non-Serviced Operating Advisor (if any), Non-Serviced Depositor, Non-Serviced Trustee, and any of their respective partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees or agents (collectively, the “Non-Serviced Indemnified Parties”), shall be indemnified by the Trust and held harmless against the Trust’s pro rata share (subject to the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement) of any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and expenses relating to the enforcement of such indemnity) incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and the related Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA (as and to the same extent the applicable Non-Serviced Trust is required to indemnify such parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the applicable Non-Serviced Trust pursuant to the terms of the related Non-Serviced PSA).

The indemnification provided herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination or resignation of the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(j)                 For purposes of this Section 6.04 and Section 11.12, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, will be deemed not to have engaged in willful misconduct or committed bad faith or negligence in the performance of their respective obligations and duties hereunder or acted in negligent disregard of such obligations and duties if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, fails to follow any terms of any Mortgage Loan documents because the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, determines that compliance with such terms would or potentially would cause an Adverse REMIC Event or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code (for which determination the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer will be entitled to rely on advice of counsel, the cost of which will be reimbursed as an additional expense of the Trust).

(k)               [RESERVED.]

Section 6.05        Depositor, Master Servicer and Special Servicer Not to Resign. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.03, none of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall resign from its respective obligations and duties hereby imposed on each of them except upon (a) determination that such party’s duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it or (b) in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, upon the appointment of, and the acceptance of such appointment by, a successor (which may be appointed by the resigning Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable), and receipt by the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if

  -374-  

 

any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25). Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to clause (a) above shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the resigning party) to such effect delivered to the Trustee and (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) the Directing Certificateholder. Unless applicable law requires the resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (as the case may be) to be effective immediately, and the Opinion of Counsel delivered pursuant to the prior sentence so states, no such resignation by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under clause (a) above shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor master servicer or special servicer, as applicable, shall have assumed the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, responsibilities and obligations in accordance with Section 7.02 and no such resignation by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall become effective until the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. Upon any termination (as described in Section 7.01(c)) or resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pursuant to this Section 6.05, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have the right and opportunity to appoint any successor master servicer or special servicer with respect to this Section 6.05; provided that, such successor master servicer or special servicer shall not be the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Operating Advisor or one of their respective Affiliates and (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) such successor special servicer is approved by the Directing Certificateholder, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. The resigning party shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) associated with a transfer of its duties pursuant to this Section 6.05. Except as provided in Section 7.01(c), in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer have the right to appoint any successor master servicer or special servicer if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, is terminated or removed pursuant to Section 7.01.

Section 6.06        Rights of the Depositor in Respect of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer hereunder or exercise the rights of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not be relieved of any of their respective obligations hereunder by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and is not obligated to supervise the performance of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Special Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise.

Section 6.07        The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer as Certificate Owner. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any Affiliate thereof may become the Holder of (or, in the case of a Book-Entry Certificate, Certificate Owner with respect to) any Certificate with (except as otherwise set forth in the definition of “Certificateholder”) the same rights it would have if it were not the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or an Affiliate thereof.

Section 6.08      The Directing Certificateholder.  (a) Other than with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan that is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all Major Decisions for Specially Serviced Loans (other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class) and (2) the Master Servicer to the extent the Directing Certificateholder’s consent is required by the applicable clauses of the definition of “Master Servicer Decision”.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as set forth in, and in any event subject to, the third and fourth paragraphs of this Section 6.08(a) and Section 6.08(b), for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to take (or consent to the Master Servicer’s taking) a Major Decision as to which the Directing Certificateholder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or thirty (30) days with respect to clause (ix) of the definition of “Major Decision”) after the Directing Certificateholder’s receipt of the Special Servicer’s written recommendation, which may be in the form of an Asset Status Report, and analysis and all information reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder, and reasonably available to the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent (the “Major Decision Reporting Package”) (provided that if such written consent has not been received by the Special Servicer within the applicable time period, then the Directing Certificateholder will be deemed to have approved such action); provided, however, that, in the event that the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters or any Master Servicer Decision, or any other matter requiring consent of the Directing Certificateholder prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event in this Agreement (or any matter requiring consultation with the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor), is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders (or, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the interest of the Certificateholders and the holders of any related Serviced Companion Loan) (as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loans)), the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Directing Certificateholder’s response (or without waiting to consult with the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, as the case may be); provided that if such matter requires consent of or consultation with the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor pursuant to this Agreement, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, provides the Directing Certificateholder (or the Operating Advisor, if applicable) with prompt written notice following such action including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer is required to obtain the consent of the Directing Certificateholder for any of the foregoing actions or any other matter requiring consent of the Directing Certificateholder after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event; provided, however, that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall consult with the Directing Certificateholder (only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) in connection with any Major Decision not relating to an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the Directing Certificateholder prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event hereunder) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Directing Certificateholder in respect thereof. If the

  -376-  

 

Master Servicer and the Special Servicer have mutually agreed that the Master Servicer will process any Major Decision, the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to take any of the actions that constitute Major Decisions unless it has obtained the consent of the Special Servicer, which consent will be deemed given (unless earlier objected to by the Special Servicer) ten (10) Business Days after the Special Servicer’s receipt from the Master Servicer of the Master Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis with respect to such Major Decision and all information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer and reasonably available to the Master Servicer in order to make an informed decision with respect to such Major Decision plus the time period provided to the Directing Certificateholder or other relevant party under this Agreement and, if applicable, any additional time period permitted in the related Intercreditor Agreement. The foregoing consent rights of the Directing Certificateholder will not apply to any Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder or Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class. In the event the Special Servicer receives no response from the Directing Certificateholder within ten (10) Business Days following its written request for input on any required consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Directing Certificateholder on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Directing Certificateholder to respond shall not relieve the Special Servicer from consulting with the Directing Certificateholder on any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or an Excluded Loan with respect to such party) or Serviced Whole Loan. The Special Servicer shall provide each Major Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor (a) prior to the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, promptly after the Special Servicer receives the Directing Certificateholder’s approval or deemed approval with respect to such Major Decision or (b) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, simultaneously upon providing such Major Decision Reporting Package to the Directing Certificateholder; provided, however, that, with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan other than an Excluded Loan, no Major Decision Reporting Package shall be required to be delivered prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event. With respect to any particular Major Decision and related Major Decision Reporting Package and any Asset Status Report, the Special Servicer shall make available to the Operating Advisor a Servicing Officer with relevant knowledge regarding the related Mortgage Loan and such Major Decision and/or Asset Status Report in order to address reasonable questions that the Operating Advisor may have relating to, among other things, such Major Decision and/or Asset Status Report. In addition, after an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer will also be required to deliver a Major Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor and consult with the Operating Advisor in connection with any proposed Major Decision (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the Operating Advisor after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event hereunder) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, provided that such consultation is on a non-binding basis. In the event that the Special Servicer receives no response from the Operating Advisor within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) its written request for input (which request is required to include the related Major Decision Reporting Package) on any required consultation and (ii) delivery of all such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor and reasonably available to the Special Servicer related to the subject matter of such consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Operating Advisor to respond on any specific matters shall not relieve the Special

  -377-  

 

Servicer from its obligation to consult with the Operating Advisor on any future matter with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or any other Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class (regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Termination Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

For the purposes of the foregoing, “Major Decision” means, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, each of the following:

(i)                      any proposed or actual foreclosure upon or comparable conversion (which may include acquisition of an REO Property) of the ownership of properties securing any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan) that comes into and continues in default;

(ii)                   any modification, consent to a modification or waiver of any monetary term (other than late fees and Default Interest) or material non-monetary term (including, without limitation, the timing of payments and acceptance of discounted payoffs) of a Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan or any extension of the maturity date of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan other than in connection with a maturity default if a refinancing or sale is expected within 120 days as provided in clause (ix) of the definition of “Master Servicer Decision”;

(iii)                any sale of a Defaulted Loan and any related defaulted Companion Loan, or any REO Property (other than in connection with the termination of the Trust) or a defaulted Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan that the Special Servicer is permitted to sell in accordance with Section 3.16(a)(iii) of this Agreement, in each case, for less than the applicable Purchase Price;

(iv)                 any determination to bring a Mortgaged Property or an REO Property into compliance with applicable environmental laws or to otherwise address hazardous material located at a Mortgaged Property or an REO Property;

(v)                    any waiver of a “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or a Serviced Whole Loan or any consent to such a waiver or consent to a transfer of the Mortgaged Property or interests in the Mortgagor or consent to the incurrence of additional debt, other than any such transfer or incurrence of debt as described under clauses (xiii) or (xiv) of the definition of “Master Servicer Decision” or as may be effected (I) without the consent of the lender under the related loan agreement, (II) pursuant to the specific terms of such Mortgage Loan and (III) for which there is no lender discretion;

(vi)                 (a) any property management company changes with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan with a principal balance equal to or greater than $10,000,000, including,

without limitation, approval of the termination of a manager and appointment of a new property manager, (b) with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Companion Loan that is a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, a change in property management if the replacement property manager is a Borrower Party or (c) franchise changes with respect to a Mortgage Loan for which the lender is required to consent or approve such changes under the related Mortgage Loan documents;

(vii)                   releases of any material amounts from any escrow accounts, reserve funds or letters of credit, in each case, held as performance escrows or reserves, other than those required pursuant to the specific terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents (provided, however, that any releases for which there is lender discretion of material amounts from any escrow accounts, reserve funds or letters of credit held as performance escrows or performance reserves specified (along with the related Mortgage Loans) on Schedule 2 hereto shall also constitute Major Decisions);

(viii)               any acceptance of an assumption agreement or any other agreement permitting a transfer of interests in a Mortgagor or guarantor releasing a Mortgagor or guarantor from liability under a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan other than pursuant to the specific terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and for which there is no lender discretion;

(ix)                       other than in the case of a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, any determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default;

(x)                          other than in the case of a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, any modification, waiver or amendment of any lease, the execution of any new lease or the granting of a subordination and non-disturbance or attornment agreement in connection with any lease (other than for ground leases), at a Mortgaged Property if (a) the lease affects an area greater than or equal to the lesser of (1) 30% of the net rentable area of the improvements at the Mortgaged Property and (2) 30,000 square feet or (b) such transaction is not a routine leasing matter;

(xi)                       other than in the case of a Non-Specially Serviced Loan or a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, any modification, amendment, consent to a modification or waiver of any material term of any Intercreditor Agreement or any action to enforce rights (or decision not to enforce rights) with respect thereto; provided, however, that any such modification or amendment that would adversely impact the Master Servicer shall additionally require the consent of the Master Servicer as a condition to its effectiveness;

(xii)                    any consent to incurrence of additional debt by a Mortgagor or mezzanine debt by a direct or indirect parent of a Mortgagor, to the extent the Mortgagee’s approval is required under the related Mortgage Loan documents;

(xiii)                  requests for property or other collateral releases or substitutions, other than (A) grants of easements or rights of way, (B) releases of non-material, non-income producing parcels of a Mortgaged Property (including, without limitation, any such releases as to which the related Mortgage Loan documents expressly require the mortgagee

(xx)                       the voting on any plan of reorganization, restructuring or similar plan in the bankruptcy of a borrower.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 6.08(a), (i) the Special Servicer shall process all requests in respect of Specially Serviced Loans and any matter (other than as described in clause (ii)(B) below) that constitutes a Major Decision with respect to Non-Specially

  -380-  

 

Serviced Loans, and (ii) the Master Servicer shall process all requests in respect of (A) any matter that constitutes a Master Servicer Decision with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans and (B) any matter that constitutes a Major Decision with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer have mutually agreed the Master Servicer shall process.

Upon receiving a request for any matter that constitutes a Major Decision with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) that is not a Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall promptly forward such request to the Special Servicer and, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request, the Special Servicer shall process such request (including, without limitation, interfacing with the Mortgagor) and except as provided in the next sentence, the Master Servicer will have no further obligation with respect to such request or such Major Decision. With respect to such request, the Master Servicer shall continue to cooperate with the Special Servicer by delivering any additional information in the Master Servicer’s possession to the Special Servicer requested by the Special Servicer relating to such Major Decision. Except as mutually agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to process any such Major Decision and shall not be required to interface with the Mortgagor or provide a written recommendation and analysis with respect to any such Major Decision. Prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall within ten (10) Business Days forward such request to the Directing Certificateholder together with the Special Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis. The Directing Certificateholder shall promptly provide notice to the Special Servicer of any objection the Directing Certificateholder has to the Special Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis (provided that if such written consent has not been received by the Special Servicer within the applicable time period, then the Directing Certificateholder will be deemed to have approved such action).

In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder, subject to any rights, if any, of the related Companion Holder to advise the Special Servicer with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, may direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to a Mortgage Loan, as the Directing Certificateholder may deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made herein; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such direction or objection contemplated by the preceding paragraphs of this Section 6.08(a) or this paragraph may require or cause the Master Servicer or Special Servicer to violate any provision of any Mortgage Loan or related Intercreditor Agreement, applicable law, this Agreement, or the REMIC Provisions (and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, subject to the rights of the holders of the related Companion Loan), including without limitation the obligation of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trust or the Trustee to liability, or materially expand the scope of the responsibilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to act, or fail to act, in a manner which in the reasonable judgment of the Master

  -381-  

 

Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is not in the best interests of the Certificateholders.

In the event the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, determines that a refusal to consent by the Directing Certificateholder or any advice from the Directing Certificateholder or Operating Advisor, would cause the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan, applicable law or this Agreement, including without limitation, the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall disregard such refusal to consent or advise and notify the Directing Certificateholder or the Operating Advisor, respectively, and the Trustee and the Rating Agencies of its determination, including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. The taking of, or refraining from taking, any action by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in accordance with the direction of or approval of the Directing Certificateholder or the approval of the Operating Advisor that does not violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan, applicable law or the Servicing Standard or any other provisions of this Agreement, will not result in any liability on the part of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer.

With respect to any matter for which the consent of the Directing Certificateholder or consultation with the Directing Certificateholder is required, to the extent no specific time period for deemed consent is expressly stated herein, in the event no response from the Directing Certificateholder is received within ten (10) Business Days following written request for consent and its receipt of all reasonably requested information on any required consent, the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed to have consented to or approved the specific matter; provided that the failure of the Directing Certificateholder to respond will not affect any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan.

The Directing Certificateholder shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that the Directing Certificateholder shall not be protected against any liability to a Controlling Class Certificateholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties owed to the Controlling Class Certificateholders or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations or duties owed to the Controlling Class Certificateholders. Each Certificateholder shall be deemed to acknowledge and agree, by its acceptance of its Certificates that the Directing Certificateholder may take actions that favor the interests of one or more Classes of the Certificates including the Holders of the Controlling Class over other Classes of the Certificates, and that the Directing Certificateholder (i) may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of some Classes of the Certificates; (ii) may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class; (iii) does not have any liability or duties to the Holders of any Class of Certificates (other than the Controlling Class) (or in the case of the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder has no liabilities or duties to the Controlling Class or the Holders of any Class of Certificates); (iv) may take actions that favor interests of the Holders of one or more Classes including the Controlling Class over the interests of the Holders of one or more other Classes of Certificates; and (v) shall have no liability whatsoever (other than to a Controlling Class Certificateholder; provided that the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder shall have no such liability) for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against

  -382-  

 

the Directing Certificateholder or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal of the Directing Certificateholder for having so acted.

Any Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan, shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment.

(vi)                 the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator, trustee or similar official in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(ix)             the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is no longer rated at least “CMS3” or “CSS3”, respectively, by Fitch and the Master Servicer or Special Servicer is not reinstated to at least that rating within sixty (60) days of the delisting.

(b)               If any Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (in either case, for purposes of this Section 7.01(b), the “Affected Party”) shall occur and be continuing, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, the Trustee may, and at the written direction of ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class) the Directing Certificateholder (solely with respect to the Special Servicer) or the Holders of Certificates entitled to 25% or more of the Voting Rights, the Trustee shall, terminate (and the Depositor may direct the Trustee to terminate each of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, upon five (5) Business Days’ written notice if there is a Servicer Termination Event under clause (A) in the parenthetical in Section 7.01(a)(iii) above), by notice in writing to the Affected Party, with a copy of such notice to the Depositor and the Operating Advisor, all of the rights (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) and obligations of the Affected Party under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof (other than as a Certificateholder or Companion Holder, if applicable); provided, however, that the Affected Party shall be entitled to the payment of accrued and unpaid compensation and reimbursement through the date of such termination as provided for under this Agreement for services rendered and expenses incurred. From and after the receipt by the Affected Party of such written notice except as otherwise provided in this Article VII, all authority and power of the Affected Party under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee with respect to a termination of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to and under this Section 7.01, and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Affected Party, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage

  -386-  

 

Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each agree that if it is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(b), it shall promptly (and in any event no later than twenty (20) Business Days subsequent to its receipt of the notice of termination) provide the Trustee with all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, functions hereunder, and shall cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, responsibilities and rights (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer within five (5) Business Days to the Trustee for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be or should have been credited by the Master Servicer to the Collection Account or any Servicing Account (if it is the Affected Party), by the Special Servicer to the REO Account (if it is the Affected Party) or thereafter be received with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loans or any REO Property (provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall, if terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(b) or pursuant to Section 7.01(d) (with respect to the Special Servicer), continue to be entitled to receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, whether in respect of Advances (in the case of the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer) or otherwise, and it and its Affiliates and the directors, managers, officers, members, employees and agents of it and its Affiliates shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.11 and Section 6.04 notwithstanding any such termination).

(c)               If the Master Servicer receives notice of termination under Section 7.01(b) solely due to a Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(a)(viii) or (ix), the Master Servicer shall have a forty-five (45) day period after such notice in which to find a successor master servicer qualified to act as Master Servicer hereunder in accordance with Section 6.03 and Section 7.02 and to which the Master Servicer can sell its rights to service the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement. During such forty-five (45) day period the Master Servicer may continue to serve as the Master Servicer hereunder. In the event that the Master Servicer is unable, within such forty-five (45) day period, to cause a qualified successor master servicer to assume the duties of the Master Servicer hereunder, then and in such event, the Trustee shall assume the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder.

Notwithstanding Section 7.01(b), if any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer shall occur and be continuing that affects the Holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, then, so long as the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated, the Holder of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or the Other Trustee appointed under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, shall be entitled to direct the Trustee to terminate the Special Servicer with respect to the related Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan. The Special Servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan cannot at any time be (without the prior written consent of the holder of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan) the person (or Affiliate thereof) that was terminated at the direction of the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan. The Special Servicer under this paragraph shall meet the eligibility requirements of Section 7.02 and the eligibility requirements of the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and the appointment thereof shall comply with the provisions of Section 7.02. Any appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this paragraph shall be subject to the receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation and confirmation from the applicable rating agencies that such appointment or replacement will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of then-current ratings of any class of any

  -387-  

 

related Serviced Companion Loan Securities (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25).

(d)               Subject to the rights of the holder of any Subordinate Companion Holder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement at any time prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Directing Certificateholder shall be entitled to terminate the rights (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement, with or without cause, upon ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor; such termination to be effective upon the appointment of a successor special servicer meeting the requirements of this Section 7.01(d); provided that, with respect to a Servicing Shift Whole Loan, the ten (10) Business Days’ notice set forth in this Section 7.01(d) shall not apply to the related Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder’s right to terminate the Special Servicer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement without cause with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement. Upon a termination of the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class) shall appoint a successor special servicer to assume the duties of the Special Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that (i) such successor will meet the requirements set forth in Section 7.02, (ii) each Rating Agency delivers Rating Agency Confirmation and, in the case of any class of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies deliver a confirmation that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) and (iii) no replacement of the Special Servicer shall be effective until the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. For the sake of clarity, the recommendation of replacement of the Special Servicer by the Operating Advisor and the approval of the Certificateholders of such Qualified Replacement Special Servicer shall not preclude the Directing Certificateholder from appointing a replacement special servicer, provided that such replacement may not be the removed Special Servicer or its Affiliate.

After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event and upon (a) the written direction of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances pursuant to Section 4.05) of the Principal Balance Certificates requesting a vote to replace the Special Servicer with a new special servicer designated in such written direction to assume the duties of the Special Servicer hereunder, (b) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses (including any legal fees and any Rating Agency fees and expenses) to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote and which will not be additional expenses of the Trust and (c) delivery by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator and Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (which Rating Agency Confirmation shall be obtained at the expense of such Holders) and confirmation from the

  -388-  

 

applicable rating agencies that such appointment (or replacement) will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of then-current ratings of any class of any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice to all Certificateholders of such request on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b) and concurrently by mail, conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard, which requisite affirmative votes must be received within one hundred-eighty (180) days of the posting of such notice, and if not so received, such votes shall be null and void ab initio. Upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 66-2/3% of a Certificateholder Quorum of Certificates, the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and appoint the successor special servicer to assume the duties of the Special Servicer (which must be a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer) designated by such Certificateholders. The Certificate Administrator shall include on each Distribution Date Statement a statement that each Certificateholder may (i) access such notices via the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (ii) register to receive electronic mail notifications when such notices are posted thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Certificateholder’s direction to remove the Special Servicer shall not apply to any Serviced AB Whole Loan that is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period or to any Servicing Shift Whole Loan.

A Serviced AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall have the right, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, to replace the Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Serviced AB Whole Loan, so long as (A) each Rating Agency delivers a Rating Agency Confirmation; (B) the successor special servicer has assumed in writing (from and after the date such successor special servicer becomes the Special Servicer) all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Special Servicer under this Agreement from and after the date it becomes the Special Servicer as they relate to any Serviced AB Whole Loan pursuant to an assumption agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Administrator; and (C) the Certificate Administrator shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Administrator to the effect that (x) the designation of such replacement to serve as Special Servicer is in compliance with this Agreement, (y) such replacement will be bound by the terms of this Agreement with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan and (z) subject to customary qualifications and exceptions, this Agreement will be enforceable against such replacement in accordance with the terms hereof.

The parties hereto acknowledge that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this section, in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement, if a servicer termination event on the part of a Non-Serviced Special Servicer under a Non-Serviced PSA remains unremedied and affects the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, and the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer has not otherwise been terminated, the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan (or the Trustee, acting at the direction of the Directing Certificateholder) will be entitled to direct the related Non-Serviced Trustee to terminate the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The appointment (or replacement) of the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan will in any event be subject to Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency. A replacement special servicer will be selected by the related Non-Serviced Trustee or, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a consultation termination event under the related Non-Serviced PSA, by the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling

  -389-  

 

Holder; provided, however, that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan cannot at any time be the Person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was terminated at the direction of the holder of such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, without the prior written consent of the Directing Certificateholder.

If at any time the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that (i) the Special Servicer is not performing its duties as required hereunder or is otherwise not acting in accordance with the Servicing Standard, and (ii) the replacement of the Special Servicer would be in the best interest of the Certificateholders as a collective whole, the Operating Advisor shall deliver to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, with a copy to the Special Servicer, a written report in the form of Exhibit W attached hereto, setting forth the reasons supporting its recommendation (along with any information the Operating Advisor considered relevant to its recommendation) and recommending a replacement Special Servicer (which form may be modified or supplemented from time to time to cure any ambiguity or error or to incorporate any additional information, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided, further, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in such written recommendation contravene any provision of this Agreement) detailing the reasons supporting its recommendation (along with relevant information justifying its recommendation) and recommending a suggested replacement special servicer to assume the duties of the Special Servicer, which shall be a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer. In such event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice to all Certificateholders of such recommendation and the related report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b), and concurrently by mail conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard. Upon (i) the affirmative vote of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least a majority of a quorum of Certificateholders (which quorum, for this purpose, is the Holders of Principal Balance Certificates that (A) evidence at least 20% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the respective Certificate Balances of such Certificates) of all Principal Balance Certificates on an aggregate basis within 180 days of posting of the Operating Advisor’s recommendation to the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and if not so received, such votes shall be null and void ab initio, and (B) consist of at least three Certificateholders or Certificate Owners that are not Risk Retention Affiliated with each other) and (ii) receipt by the Certificate Administrator following satisfaction of the foregoing clause (i) of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation from the applicable rating agencies that such appointment (or replacement) will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the then current ratings of any class of any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, the Trustee shall (i) terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and appoint a successor special servicer approved by the holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least a majority of a quorum of Certificateholders (as set forth above) and (ii) promptly notify such outgoing Special Servicer of the effective date of such termination. The reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses of outside counsel) associated with obtaining such Rating Agency Confirmations and administering such vote and the Operating Advisor’s identification of a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer shall be an additional expense of the Trust. In the event that the Trustee does not receive at least a majority of the requested votes, then the Trustee shall have no obligation to remove the Special Servicer. Prior to the appointment of any replacement special servicer, such replacement special servicer shall have agreed to succeed to the obligations of the Special Servicer

  -390-  

 

under this Agreement and to act as the Special Servicer’s successor hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall not be permitted to recommend the replacement of the Special Servicer with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan so long as the related Serviced Companion Noteholder is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period under the related Intercreditor Agreement or with respect to any Servicing Shift Whole Loan. For the sake of clarity, the recommendation of replacement of the Special Servicer by the Operating Advisor and the approval of the Certificateholders of such Qualified Replacement Special Servicer shall not preclude the Directing Certificateholder from appointing a replacement special servicer, provided that such replacement may not be the removed Special Servicer or its Affiliate.

No penalty or fee shall be payable to the terminated Special Servicer with respect to any termination pursuant to this Section 7.01(d). All costs of any such termination made by the Directing Certificateholder without cause shall be paid by the Holders of the Controlling Class.

For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnification of the Operating Advisor in Section 6.04 shall include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.04, any action or claim arising from, or relating to, the Operating Advisor’s determination under this Section 7.01(d) (regarding removal of the Special Servicer), or the result of the vote of the Certificateholders (regarding removal of the Special Servicer).

(e)               The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, as the case may be, from time to time, take all such reasonable actions as are required by it in accordance with the related Servicing Standard in order to prevent the Certificates from being placed on “watch” status or downgraded due to servicing or special servicing, as applicable, concerns by any Rating Agency with respect to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable. In no event shall the remedy for a breach of the foregoing covenant extend beyond termination pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(viii) and the resulting operation of Section 7.01(b) and (c). The operation of this subsection (e) shall not be construed to limit the effect of Section 7.01(a)(viii).

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) if any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer affects a Serviced Companion Loan, the related holder of a Serviced Companion Loan or the rating on any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, and if the Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated, or (2) if a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer affects only a Serviced Companion Loan, the related holder of a Serviced Companion Loan or the rating on any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, then the Master Servicer may not be terminated by or at the direction of the related holder of such Serviced Companion Loan or the holders of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, but upon the written direction of the related holder of such Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer shall appoint a sub-servicer that will be responsible for servicing the related Serviced Whole Loan.

(g)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.01, with respect to any Excluded Special Servicer Loan, if any, the related Special Servicer shall resign as Special Servicer of that Excluded Special Servicer Loan. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, if the applicable Excluded Special Servicer Loan is not also an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Directing Certificateholder shall use reasonable efforts to select an Excluded Special Servicer, as successor to the resigning Special Servicer, for the related

  -391-  

 

Excluded Special Servicer Loan in accordance with this Agreement. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, if at any time the applicable Excluded Special Servicer Loan is also an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class or if the Directing Certificateholder is entitled to appoint the Excluded Special Servicer but does not select a replacement special servicer in writing, with a copy to the Special Servicer, within 30 days of notice of resignation (provided that the conditions required to be satisfied for the appointment of the replacement Special Servicer to be effective are not required to be completed within such thirty (30) day period but in any event are to be completed within one hundred and twenty (120) days), the resigning Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to select the related Excluded Special Servicer. The resigning Special Servicer shall not have any liability with respect to the actions or inactions of the applicable Excluded Special Servicer or with respect to the identity of the applicable Excluded Special Servicer. It shall be a condition to any such appointment that (i) the Rating Agencies confirm that the appointment would not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any of their then-current ratings of the Certificates and each NRSRO hired to provide ratings with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities makes the equivalent confirmation, (ii) the related Excluded Special Servicer is a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer and (iii) the related Excluded Special Servicer delivers to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator and any applicable Other Depositor and Other Certificate Administrator, the information, if any, required under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act regarding itself in its role as Excluded Special Servicer.

If (i) at any time the Special Servicer that had acted as the Special Servicer for an Excluded Special Servicer Loan prior to it becoming an Excluded Special Servicer Loan or (ii) an Excluded Special Servicer was appointed on the Closing Date and, in either case, the Special Servicer is no longer a Borrower Party with respect to an Excluded Special Servicer Loan (including, without limitation, as a result of the related Mortgaged Property becoming REO Property), (1) the related Excluded Special Servicer shall resign, (2) the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan shall no longer be an Excluded Special Servicer Loan, (3) such original Special Servicer shall become the Special Servicer again for such related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and (4) such original Special Servicer shall be entitled to all special servicing compensation with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan earned during such time on and after such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan is no longer an Excluded Special Servicer Loan.

The applicable Excluded Special Servicer shall perform all of the obligations of the Special Servicer for the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan and shall be entitled to all special servicing compensation with respect to such Excluded Special Servicer Loan earned during such time as the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan is an Excluded Special Servicer Loan (provided that the Special Servicer shall remain entitled to all other special servicing compensation with respect to all Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans that are not Excluded Special Servicer Loans during such time).

If a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer, a related Excluded Special Servicer, or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has actual knowledge that a Mortgage Loan is no longer an Excluded Loan, an Excluded Controlling Class Loan or an Excluded Special Servicer Loan, as applicable, the Master Servicer, the related Excluded Special Servicer or the Special

  -392-  

 

Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide prompt written notice thereof to each of the other parties to this Agreement.

Section 7.02        Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. On and after the time the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, either resigns pursuant to subsection (a) of the first sentence of Section 6.05 or receives a notice of termination for cause pursuant to Section 7.01(b), and provided that no acceptable successor has been appointed within the time period specified in Section 7.01(c), the Trustee shall be the successor to such party, until such successor to that Master Servicer or that Special Servicer, as applicable, is appointed as provided in this Section 7.02 or by the Directing Certificateholder as provided in Section 7.01(d), as applicable, in all respects in its capacity as the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to, and have the benefit of, all of the rights, (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) benefits, responsibilities, duties, liabilities and limitations on liability relating thereto and that arise thereafter placed on or for the benefit of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the terminated party’s failure under Section 7.01 to provide information or moneys required hereunder shall not be considered a default by such successor hereunder. The appointment of a successor master servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Master Servicer which may have arisen prior to its termination as Master Servicer, and the appointment of a successor special servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Special Servicer which may have arisen prior to its termination as Special Servicer. The Trustee in its capacity as successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not be liable for any of the representations and warranties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, respectively, herein or in any related document or agreement, for any acts or omissions of the predecessor master servicer or special servicer or for any losses incurred by the predecessor Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.06 hereunder, nor shall the Trustee be required to purchase any Mortgage Loan hereunder solely as a result of its obligations as successor master servicer or special servicer, as the case may be. Subject to Section 3.11, as compensation therefor, the Trustee as successor master servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fees and all fees relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Companion Loans which that Master Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer had continued to act hereunder, including but not limited to any income or other benefit from any Permitted Investment pursuant to Section 3.06, and subject to Section 3.11, and the Trustee as successor to the Special Servicer shall be entitled to the Special Servicing Fees to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had continued to act hereunder. Should the Trustee succeed to the capacity of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Trustee shall be afforded the same standard of care and liability as the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder notwithstanding anything in Section 8.01 to the contrary, but only with respect to actions taken by it in its role as successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as the case may be, and not with respect to its role as Trustee hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to act as successor to that Master Servicer or that Special Servicer, as applicable, or shall, if it is unable to so act, or if the Trustee is not approved as a servicer by each Rating Agency, or if the Directing Certificateholder (solely with respect to the Special Servicer) ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class) or the Holders of Certificates entitled to more than 50% of the Voting Rights so request in

  -393-  

 

writing to the Trustee, promptly appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing institution which meets the criteria set forth in Section 6.05 and otherwise herein, as the successor to that Master Servicer or that Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder. No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder shall be effective until (i) the assumption in writing by the successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of all its responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder that arise thereafter, (ii) receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), (iii) such appointment (solely with respect to the Special Servicer) has been approved (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) by the Directing Certificateholder, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld and (iv) the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 hereof and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder, unless the Trustee shall be prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as herein above provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as described herein, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation with respect to a successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as the case may be, shall be in excess of that permitted the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder. The Trustee, the non-terminated Master Servicer or the non-terminated Special Servicer and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses associated with the transfer of the servicing function (other than with respect to a termination without cause) under this Agreement shall be borne by the predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable. If such predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer (as the case may be) has not reimbursed the party requesting such termination or the successor master servicer or special servicer for such expenses within 90 days after the presentation of reasonable documentation, such expense shall be reimbursed by the Trust; provided that the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of its liability for such expenses. If and to the extent that the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer has not reimbursed such costs and expenses, the party requesting such termination shall have an affirmative obligation to take all reasonable actions to collect such expenses on behalf of the Trust. In the event of a termination without cause, such costs and expenses shall be borne by the party requesting such termination, or as otherwise set forth herein; provided that the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall not bear any such costs and expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Trustee is terminating the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in accordance with this Agreement at the direction of any party or parties permitted to direct the Trustee to so terminate the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, the Trustee shall not have any liability for such expenses pursuant to this paragraph.

Section 7.03        Notification to Certificateholders. (a) Upon any resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 6.05, any termination of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 or any appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02, the Certificate Administrator shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.

(b)               Not later than the later of (i) sixty (60) days after the occurrence of any event which constitutes or, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a Servicer Termination Event and (ii) five (5) days after the Certificate Administrator would be deemed to have notice of the occurrence of such an event in accordance with Section 8.02(ix), the Certificate Administrator shall transmit by mail to the Depositor and all Certificateholders (and, if a Serviced Whole Loan is affected, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder) notice of such occurrence, unless such default shall have been cured.

Section 7.04        Waiver of Servicer Termination Events. The Holders of Certificates representing at least 66-2/3% of the Voting Rights allocated to each Class of Certificates affected by any Servicer Termination Event hereunder may waive such Servicer Termination Event; provided, however, that a Servicer Termination Event under clause (i), (ii), (viii) or (ix) of Section 7.01(a) may be waived only with the consent of all of the Certificateholders of the affected Classes, and a Servicer Termination Event under clause (iii) of Section 7.01(a) (with respect to obligations under Article XI) may be waived only with the consent of the Depositor. Upon any such waiver of a Servicer Termination Event, subject to the rights of any affected holder of a Serviced Companion Loan under Section 7.01(c) or Section 7.01(f), such Servicer Termination Event shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. Upon any such waiver of a Servicer Termination Event by Certificateholders, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with enforcement action taken with respect to such Servicer Termination Event prior to such waiver from the Trust. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Servicer Termination Event or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, for purposes of waiving any Servicer Termination Event pursuant to this Section 7.04, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor shall be entitled to the same Voting Rights with respect to the matters described above as they would if any other Person held such Certificates.

Section 7.05        Trustee as Maker of Advances. In the event that the Master Servicer fails to fulfill its obligations hereunder to make any Advances and such failure remains uncured, the Trustee shall perform such obligations (x) within five (5) Business Days following such failure by the Master Servicer with respect to Servicing Advances resulting in a Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(a)(iii) to the extent a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such failure with respect to such Servicing Advances and (y) by noon, New York City time, on the related Distribution Date with respect to P&I Advances pursuant to the Certificate Administrator’s notice of failure pursuant to Section 4.03(a) unless such failure has been cured. With respect to any such Advance made by the Trustee, the Trustee shall succeed to all of the Master Servicer’s rights with respect to Advances hereunder, including, without limitation, the Master Servicer’s rights of reimbursement and interest on each Advance at the Reimbursement Rate, and rights to determine that a proposed Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or

  -395-  

 

Servicing Advance, as the case may be, (without regard to any impairment of any such rights of reimbursement caused by the Master Servicer’s default in its obligations hereunder); provided, however, that if Advances made by the Trustee and the Master Servicer shall at any time be outstanding, or any interest on any Advance shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay such Advances and the interest thereon hereunder shall be applied entirely to the Advances outstanding to the Trustee, until such Advances shall have been repaid in full, together with all interest accrued thereon, prior to reimbursement of the Master Servicer for such Advances. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any notice given with respect to a Nonrecoverable Advance hereunder.

A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificateholders and the Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, by the Depositor. If no successor trustee or certificate administrator shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within ninety (90) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee or Certificate Administrator may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee or certificate administrator, as applicable, and such petition will be an expense of the Trust.

(b)               If at any time the Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 (and in the case of the Certificate Administrator, Section 5.08) and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Depositor or the Master Servicer, or if at any time the Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or if the Trustee or Certificate Administrator (if different than the Trustee) shall fail to timely publish any report to be delivered, published or otherwise made available by the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 4.02 and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of five (5) days, or if the Certificate Administrator fails to make distributions required pursuant to Section 4.01 or Section 9.01, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and appoint a successor trustee or certificate administrator acceptable to the requesting Master Servicer, by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee or Certificate Administrator so removed and to the successor trustee or certificate administrator in the case of the removal of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificateholders by the Depositor. If no successor trustee or certificate administrator shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within ninety (90) days after the giving of such notice of removal, the removed Trustee or Certificate

Administrator may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee or certificate administrator, as applicable, at the expense of the Trust.

(c)               The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 75% of the Voting Rights may, upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, with or without cause, remove the Trustee or Certificate Administrator and appoint a successor trustee or certificate administrator by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Master Servicer, one complete set to the Trustee or Certificate Administrator so removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Depositor, the Special Servicer and the remaining Certificateholders by the Master Servicer.

(d)               Any resignation or removal of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator and appointment of a successor trustee or certificate administrator pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall not become effective until (i) acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee or certificate administrator as provided in Section 8.08 and (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan.

If the Master Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of a request to do so, or in case a Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08.

  -406-  

 

separate trustee or co-trustee jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Trustee.

(c)               Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of then-separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.

If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

(e)               The appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee under this Section 8.10 shall not relieve the Trustee of its duties and responsibilities hereunder.

The Custodian shall be subject to the same obligations and standard of care as would be imposed on the Certificate Administrator hereunder in connection with the retention of Mortgage Files directly by the Certificate Administrator. Upon termination or resignation of the Custodian, the Certificate Administrator may appoint another Custodian meeting the foregoing requirements. The appointment of one or more Custodians by the Certificate Administrator shall not relieve the Certificate Administrator from any of its obligations hereunder, and the Certificate Administrator shall remain responsible for all acts and omissions of any Custodian other than the initial Custodian. Any Custodian appointed hereunder must maintain a fidelity bond and errors and omissions policy in an amount customary for Custodians which serve in such capacity in commercial mortgage loan securitization transactions, or may self-insure.

Section 8.12        Representations and Warranties of the Trustee. The Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, each Serviced Companion Noteholder and the Certificate Administrator for the benefit of the Certificateholders, as of the Closing Date, that:

In the event that the Sole Certificateholder elects to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) and pay the Termination Purchase Amount for all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust in accordance with the preceding sentence, such Sole Certificateholder, not later than the Distribution Date on which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur, shall remit for deposit in the Collection Account of the Master Servicer an amount in immediately available funds equal to all amounts due and owing to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator hereunder through the date of the liquidation of the Trust that may be withdrawn from the Collection Account, or an escrow account acceptable to the respective parties hereto, pursuant to Section 3.05(a) or that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.05(b), but only to the extent that such amounts are not already on deposit in the Collection Account.

In addition, the Master Servicer shall transfer to the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account all amounts required to be transferred thereto on such P&I Advance Date from the Collection Account pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 3.04(b), together with any other amounts on deposit in the Collection Account that would otherwise be held for future distribution. Upon confirmation that such final deposits and payments have been made, the Custodian shall release or cause to be released to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as applicable, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments furnished to it by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to effectuate transfer of the Mortgage Loans as assets of the Trust and REO Properties remaining in the Trust Fund.

  -415-  

 

(b)               The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “startup day” (“Startup Day”) of each Trust REMIC within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.

(c)               The Certificate Administrator shall act on behalf of each Trust REMIC in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving either such Trust REMIC and shall represent each such Trust REMIC in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto. The legal expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ or accountants’ fees, and costs of any such proceeding and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses of the Trust and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties on deposit in the Collection Account as provided by Section 3.05 unless such legal expenses and costs are incurred by reason of the Certificate Administrator’s willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence. The Certificate Administrator is hereby designated as the “partnership representative” (within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code) of each Trust REMIC and shall perform all the functions thereof. By their acceptance thereof, the Holders of the Class R Certificates hereby agree to such designation.

(d)               The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared and shall file, or cause to be filed, all of the Tax Returns that it determines are required with respect to each Trust REMIC created hereunder, and shall cause the Trustee to sign (and the Trustee shall timely sign) such Tax Returns in a timely manner.

The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed with the IRS, on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC, an application for a taxpayer identification number for such Trust REMIC on IRS Form SS-4 or obtain such number by other permissible means.

(f)                The Certificate Administrator shall take such actions and shall cause the Trust to take such actions as are reasonably within the Certificate Administrator’s control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein as shall be necessary to maintain the status of each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and the Trustee shall assist the Certificate Administrator to the extent reasonably requested by the Certificate Administrator to do so. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall knowingly or intentionally take any action, cause the Trust to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) cause any Trust REMIC

  -416-  

 

to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code, but not including the tax on “net income from foreclosure property”) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Certificate Administrator receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or, if such party fails to pay such expense, and the Certificate Administrator determines that taking such action is in the best interest of the Trust and the Certificateholders, at the expense of the Trust, but in no event at the expense of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to the Trust or any Trust REMIC created hereunder, cause the loss of such status or, unless the Certificate Administrator determines in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust against such tax, result in the imposition of such a tax (not including a tax on “net income from foreclosure property”). The Trustee shall not take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Certificate Administrator has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action. The Certificate Administrator may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take the action not expressly permitted by this Agreement, but in no event at the expense of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee. At all times as may be required by the Code, the Certificate Administrator will to the extent within its control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein, maintain substantially all of the assets of each Trust REMIC as “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(g)               In the event that any applicable federal, state or local tax, including interest, penalties or assessments, additional amounts or additions to tax, is imposed on any Trust REMIC, such tax shall be charged against amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the Certificates, except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 10.01(g); provided that with respect to the estimated amount of tax imposed on any “net income from foreclosure property” pursuant to Section 860G(c) of the Code or any similar tax imposed by a state or local tax authority, the Special Servicer shall retain in the related REO Account a reserve for the payment of such taxes in such amounts and at such times as it shall deem appropriate (or as advised by the Certificate Administrator in writing), and shall remit to the Master Servicer such reserved amounts as the Master Servicer shall request in order to pay such taxes. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and to actually pay, such tax as is estimated to be legally owed by any Trust REMIC (but such authorization shall not prevent the Certificate Administrator from contesting, at the expense of the Trust (other than as a consequence of a breach of its obligations under this Agreement), any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The Certificate Administrator is hereby authorized to and shall segregate, into a separate non-interest bearing account, the net income from any “prohibited transaction” under Section 860F(a) of the Code or the amount of any taxable contribution to any Trust REMIC after the Startup Day that is subject to tax under Section 860G(d) of the Code and use such income or amount, to the extent necessary, to pay such prohibited transactions tax. To the extent that any such tax (other than any such tax paid in respect of “net income from foreclosure property”) is paid to the IRS or applicable state or local tax authorities, the Certificate Administrator shall retain an equal amount from future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of Class R Certificates (as applicable) and shall distribute

  -417-  

 

such retained amounts, (x) to the Lower-Tier REMIC to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses arising therefrom, (y) in the case of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, to the Upper-Tier REMIC to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses arising therefrom and then to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest in the manner specified in Section 4.01(c), and (z) in the case of the Upper-Tier REMIC, to the Holders of the Principal Balance Certificates in the manner specified in Section 4.01(a) or Section 4.01(c), as applicable, to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses arising therefrom and then to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class UR Interest. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be responsible for any taxes imposed on any Trust REMIC except to the extent such taxes arise as a consequence of a breach of their respective obligations under this Agreement which breach constitutes willful misconduct, bad faith, or negligence by such party.

(h)               The Certificate Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain or cause to be maintained books and records with respect to each Trust REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual basis or as otherwise may be required by the REMIC Provisions.

(i)                 Following the Startup Day, neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Trustee shall accept any contributions of assets to any Trust REMIC unless the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to make such contribution) to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in such Trust REMIC will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

(j)                 Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Trustee shall enter into any arrangement by which the Trust or any Trust REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit the Trust or any Trust REMIC to receive any income from assets other than “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(k)               Solely for the purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” by which the Certificate Balance or Notional Amount of each Class of Regular Certificates or Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests and by which the Lower-Tier Principal Amount of each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests would be reduced to zero is the Rated Final Distribution Date.

(l)                 None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall sell, dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection with (i) the default, imminent default or foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust, (iii) the termination of the Trust pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement or (iv) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or Article III of this Agreement) or acquire any assets for the Trust or any Trust REMIC or sell or dispose of any investments in the Collection Account or the REO Account for gain unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel that such sale, disposition or substitution will not (a) affect adversely the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (b) unless the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has

  -418-  

 

determined in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust against such tax, cause the Trust or any Trust REMIC to be subject to a tax on “prohibited transactions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

(m)             The Certificate Administrator’s authority under this Agreement includes the authority to make, and the Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to make, any elections allowed under the Code (i) to avoid the application of Section 6221 of the Code (or successor provisions) to either Trust REMIC and (ii) to avoid payment by either Trust REMIC under Section 6225 of the Code (or successor provisions) of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on any Holder of a Class R Certificate, past or present. Each Holder of a Class R Certificate agrees, by acquiring such Certificate, to any such elections.

(n)               The Exchangeable Upper-Tier Regular Interests shall be held in the Grantor Trust and have been placed in the Grantor Trust through the efforts of the Underwriters.

This Officer’s Certificate should be addressed to the certificate administrator at its corporate trust office, as specified in the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

(h)               If any Other Securitization includes a Serviced Companion Loan and is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, then the obligations of the parties hereto set forth in this Article XI with respect such Other Securitization shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that the Trust may cease to be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

Section 11.17    Impact of Cure Period. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be subject to a Servicer Termination Event pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition thereof prior to the expiration of the grace period applicable to such party’s obligations under this Article XI as provided for in such clause (iii) nor shall any such party be deemed to not be in compliance under this Agreement, during any grace period provided for in this Article XI; provided that if any such party fails to comply with the delivery requirements of this Article XI by the expiration of any applicable grace period such failure shall constitute a Servicer Termination Event. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be subject to a Servicer Termination Event pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition thereof prior to the expiration of the grace period applicable to such party’s obligations under this Article XI as provided for in such clause (iii) nor shall any such party be deemed to not be in compliance under this Agreement, for failing to deliver any item required under this Article XI by the time required hereunder with respect to any reporting period for which the Trust (or any trust in a related Other Securitization) is not required to file Exchange Act reports.

Article XII

THE ASSET REPRESENTATIONS REVIEWER

Section 12.01    Asset Review.

(a)               On or prior to each Distribution Date, based either on the CREFC^® Delinquent Loan Status Report and/or the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File delivered by the Master Servicer for such Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall determine if an Asset Review Trigger has occurred. If an Asset Review Trigger is determined to have occurred, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide notice to all Certificateholders and each other party to this Agreement. Any notice required to be delivered to the Certificateholders pursuant to this Article XII shall be delivered by the Certificate Administrator by posting such notice on the

  -449-  

 

Certificate Administrator’s Website, by mailing such notice to the Certificateholders’ addresses appearing in the Certificate Register in the case of Definitive Certificates and by delivering such notice via the Depository in the case of Book-Entry Certificates. The Certificate Administrator shall include in the Form 10-D relating to the reporting period in which the Asset Review Trigger occurred the following statement describing the events that caused the Asset Review Trigger to occur: “As of the [Date of Distribution], the following Mortgage Loans identified below are sixty (60) or more days delinquent and an Asset Review Trigger as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement has occurred.” On each Distribution Date occurring after providing such notice to Certificateholders, the Certificate Administrator, based on information provided to it by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall determine whether (1) any additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Loan, (2) any Mortgage Loan has ceased to be a Delinquent Loan and (3) whether an Asset Review Trigger has ceased to exist, and, if there is an occurrence of any of the events or circumstances identified in clauses (1), (2) and/or (3), deliver written notice of such information (which may be via email) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit SS within two (2) Business Days to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer.

If Certificateholders evidencing not less than 5% of the Voting Rights of the Certificates deliver to the Certificate Administrator, within 90 days after the filing of the Form 10-D reporting the occurrence of an Asset Review Trigger, a written direction requesting a vote to commence an Asset Review (an “Asset Review Vote Election”), then the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to all Certificateholders (with a copy to the Asset Representations Reviewer) and conduct a solicitation of votes in accordance with Section 5.10 to authorize an Asset Review. Upon the affirmative vote to authorize an Asset Review by Holders of Certificates evidencing at least (i) a majority of these Certificateholders who cast votes and (ii) a majority of an Asset Review Quorum within one hundred-fifty (150) days of receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election (an “Affirmative Asset Review Vote”), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to all parties to this Agreement, the Underwriters, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Directing Certificateholder and the other Certificateholders (the “Asset Review Notice”). Upon receipt of an Asset Review Notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request access to the Secure Data Room by providing the Certificate Administrator with a certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit RR (which shall be sent via email to trustadministrationgroup@computershare.com or submitted electronically via the Certificate Administrator’s Website). Upon receipt of such certification, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly (and in any case within two (2) Business Days after such receipt) grant the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the Secure Data Room. In the event an Affirmative Asset Review Vote has not occurred within such 150-day period following the receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election, no Certificateholder may request a vote or cast a vote for an Asset Review and the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to review any Delinquent Loan unless and until (A) an additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Loan after the expiration of such 150-day period, (B) a new Asset Review Trigger has occurred as a result or an Asset Review Trigger is otherwise in effect, (C) the Certificate Administrator has timely received any Asset Review Vote Election after the occurrence of the events described in clauses (A) and (B) in this sentence and (D) an Affirmative Asset Review Vote has occurred within 150 days after the Asset Review Vote Election described in clause (C) in this sentence. After the occurrence of any Asset Review Vote Election or an Affirmative Asset Review Vote, no Certificateholder may make any additional Asset Review Vote Election except as described in the immediately preceding sentence.

  -450-  

 

Any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote will be paid as an expense of the Trust from the Collection Account. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to administer any vote in connection with the foregoing through an agent.

(b)               (i) Upon receipt of an Asset Review Notice, the Custodian (with respect to clauses (1)-(5) below), the Master Servicer (with respect to clauses (6) and (7) below for Non-Specially Serviced Loans for which it acts as Master Servicer) and the Special Servicer (with respect to clauses (6) and (7) below for Specially Serviced Loans) shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days, provide the following materials in electronic format to the extent in their possession to the Asset Representations Reviewer (collectively, with the Diligence Files posted on the Secure Data Room by the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 4.08, a copy of the Prospectus, a copy of each related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and a copy of this Agreement, the “Review Materials”):

(1)               a copy of an assignment of the Mortgage in favor of the Trustee, with evidence of recording thereon, for each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(2)               a copy of an assignment of any related assignment of leases (if such item is a document separate from the Mortgage) in favor of the Trustee, with evidence of recording thereon, related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(3)               a copy of the assignment of all unrecorded documents relating to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review, if not already covered pursuant to items (1) or (2) above;

(4)               copies of all filed copies (bearing evidence of filing) or evidence of filing of any UCC financing statements related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(5)               a copy of an assignment in favor of the Trustee of any financing statement executed and filed in the relevant jurisdiction related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(6)               a copy of any notice previously delivered by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, of any alleged defect or breach with respect to any Delinquent Loan; and

(7)               a copy of any other related documents that were entered into or delivered in connection with the origination of the related Mortgage Loan that the Asset Representations Reviewer has determined are necessary in connection with its completion of any Asset Review and that are requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer, in the time frames and as otherwise described in clause (ii) hereof.

  -451-  

 

(ii)              In addition, in the event that, as part of an Asset Review of a Mortgage Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines it is missing any document that is required to be part of the Review Materials for such Mortgage Loan and that is necessary in connection with its completion of the Asset Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Review Materials, notify the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, of such missing document(s), and request that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notification from the Asset Representations Reviewer, deliver to the Asset Representations Reviewer such missing document(s) to the extent in its possession; provided that any such notification and/or request shall be in writing, specifically identifying the documents being requested and sent to the notice address for the related party set forth in Section 13.05 of this Agreement. In the event any missing documents are not provided by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, within such ten (10) Business Day period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request such documents from the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided that the Mortgage Loan Seller shall be required under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to deliver such missing document only to the extent such document is in the possession of such party but in any event excluding any documents that contain information that is proprietary to the related originator or Mortgage Loan Seller or any draft documents or privileged or internal communications (and, if such documents are not in its possession, solely with respect to any Mortgage Loan sold by such Mortgage Loan Seller that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall make a request under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA for any such documents that are not in its possession). In the event any missing documents with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan are not provided by the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request such documents from the parties to the related Non-Serviced PSA, to the extent that the Asset Representations Reviewer is entitled to request such documents under such Non-Serviced PSA.

(iii)            The Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider and rely upon information furnished to it by a Person that is not a party to this Agreement or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, and shall do so only if such information can be independently verified (without unreasonable effort or expense to the Asset Representations Reviewer) and is determined by the Asset Representations Reviewer in its good faith and sole discretion to be relevant to the Asset Review conducted pursuant to this Section 12.01 (any such information, “Unsolicited Information”).

(iv)             Upon receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of the Asset Review Notice and access to the Diligence File with respect to a Delinquent Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer, as an independent contractor, shall commence a review of the compliance of each Delinquent Loan with the representations and warranties related to that Delinquent Loan (such review, the “Asset Review”). The Asset Representations Reviewer shall perform an Asset Review with respect to each representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Delinquent Loan in accordance with the procedures set forth on Exhibit QQ (each such procedure, a “Test”); provided, however, the Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, modify any Test

  -452-  

 

and/or associated Review Materials described in Exhibit PP if, and only to the extent, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that it is necessary to modify such Test and/or such associated Review Materials in order to facilitate its Asset Review in accordance with the Asset Review Standard. Once an Asset Review of a Mortgage Loan is completed, no further Asset Review shall be required in respect of, or performed on, such Mortgage Loan notwithstanding that such Mortgage Loan may continue to be a Delinquent Loan or again become a Delinquent Loan at a time when a new Asset Review Trigger occurs and a new Affirmative Asset Review Vote is obtained subsequent to the occurrence of such new Asset Review Trigger.

(v)                     No Certificateholder shall have the right to change the scope of the Asset Review, and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be required to review any information other than (1) the Review Materials and (2) if applicable, Unsolicited Information.

(vi)                  The Asset Representations Reviewer may, absent manifest error and subject to the Asset Review Standard, (i) assume, without independent investigation or verification, that the Review Materials are accurate and complete in all material respects and (ii) conclusively rely on such Review Materials.

(vii)               The Asset Representations Reviewer shall prepare a preliminary report with respect to each Delinquent Loan within fifty-six (56) days after the date on which access to the Secure Data Room is provided, subject to the last sentence of this paragraph. In the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that the Review Materials are insufficient to complete a Test and such missing documentation is not delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans), the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) to the extent in the possession of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or from the related Mortgage Loan Seller within ten (10) Business Days following the request by the Asset Representations Reviewer to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the related Mortgage Loan Seller, as the case may be, as described in Section 12.01(b)(ii), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall list such missing documents in such preliminary report setting forth the preliminary results of the application of the Tests and the reasons why such missing documents are necessary to complete a Test and (if the Asset Representations Reviewer has so concluded) that the absence of such documents will be deemed to be a failure of such Test. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall provide such preliminary report to the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), and the related Mortgage Loan Seller. If the preliminary report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall have ninety (90) days (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the failure. Any documents or explanations to support the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s claim that the representation and warranty has not failed a Test or that any missing information or documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test shall be sent by such Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer. For avoidance of doubt, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be required to prepare a preliminary

  -453-  

 

report in the event the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that there is no Test failure with respect to the related Mortgage Loan.

(viii)          The Asset Representations Reviewer shall, within sixty (60) days after the date on which access to the Secure Data Room is provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate Administrator or within the ten (10) days after the expiration of the Cure/Contest Period (whichever is later), complete an Asset Review with respect to each Delinquent Loan and deliver (i) a report setting forth the Asset Representations Reviewer’s findings and conclusions as to whether or not it has determined there is any evidence of a failure of any Test based on the Asset Review and a statement that the Asset Representations Reviewer’s findings and conclusions set forth in such report were not influenced by any third party (an “Asset Review Report”) to each party to this Agreement, the related Mortgage Loan Seller for each Delinquent Loan and the Directing Certificateholder and (ii) a summary of the Asset Representations Reviewer’s conclusions included in such Asset Review Report (an “Asset Review Report Summary”) to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. The period of time by which the Asset Review Report must be completed and delivered may be extended by up to an additional thirty (30) days, upon written notice to the parties to this Agreement and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, if the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that such additional time is required due to the characteristics of the Mortgage Loan and/or the Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties. In no event may the Asset Representations Reviewer determine whether any Test failure constitutes a Material Defect, or whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, which, in each case, shall be a responsibility of the applicable Enforcing Servicer pursuant to Section 12.01(b)(x) of this Agreement.

(ix)                   in addition, in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer does not receive any documentation that it requested from the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans), the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) or the related Mortgage Loan Seller in sufficient time to allow the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete its Asset Review and deliver an Asset Review Report, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall prepare the Asset Review Report solely based on the documentation received by the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to the related Delinquent Loan, and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall have no responsibility to independently obtain any such documentation from any party to this Agreement or otherwise.

(x)                       Within thirty (30) days after receipt of an Asset Review Report with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Enforcing Servicer shall determine whether at that time, based on the Servicing Standard, there exists a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan. If the Enforcing Servicer determines that a Material Defect exists, the Enforcing Servicer shall enforce the obligations of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Material Defect in accordance with Section 2.03(b).

(c)                      The Asset Representations Reviewer and its affiliates shall keep confidential information labeled as Privileged Information and any information that appears on its

  -454-  

 

face to be Privileged Information received from any party to this Agreement or any Sponsor (including, without limitation, in connection with the review of the Mortgage Loans) and not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Certificateholders), other than (1) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement in an Asset Review Report or otherwise, to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information or (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Asset Representations Reviewer with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception.

(d)               The Asset Representations Reviewer may delegate its duties to agents or subcontractors so long as the related agreements or arrangements with such agents or subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Section 12.01; provided that no agent or subcontractor may (i) be affiliated with any Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates or (ii) have been paid any fees, compensation or other remuneration by an Underwriter, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with due diligence or other services with respect to any Mortgage Loan prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall remain obligated and primarily liable for any Asset Review required hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability or related obligation or liability by virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as its agents or subcontractor to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Asset Representations Reviewer alone were performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with any agent or subcontractor providing for indemnification of the Asset Representations Reviewer by such agent or subcontractor, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

Section 12.02    Payment of Asset Representations Reviewer Fees and Expenses; Limitation of Liability.

(a)             The Depositor shall pay the Asset Representations Reviewer a fee of $5,000 (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Upfront Fee”) on the Closing Date. As compensation for the performance of its routine duties, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be paid a fee (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Fee”), payable monthly from amounts received in respect of the Mortgage Loans and shall be equal to the product of a rate equal to 0.00025% per annum (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Fee Rate”) and the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and any REO Loans (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, but not any Companion Loan) and shall be calculated in the same manner as interest is calculated on such Mortgage Loans.

(b)             As compensation for the performance of its duties hereunder, with respect to an individual Asset Review Trigger and each Mortgage Loan that is a Delinquent Loan and is subject to an Asset Review (for purposes of this paragraph, each a “Subject Loan”), upon the completion of any Asset Review with respect to an individual Asset Review Trigger, the Asset

  -455-  

 

Representations Reviewer shall be paid a fee equal to in the case of a Subject Loan (i) $21,150 multiplied by the number of Subject Loans, plus (ii) $2,125 per Mortgaged Property relating to the Subject Loans in excess of one Mortgaged Property per Subject Loan, plus (iii) $2,800 per Mortgaged Property relating to a Subject Loan subject to a ground lease, plus (iv) $1,550 per Mortgaged Property relating to a Subject Loan subject to a franchise agreement, hotel management agreement or hotel license agreement, subject, in the case of each of clauses (i) through (iv), to adjustments on the basis of the year-end Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, or other similar index if the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers is no longer calculated for the year of the Closing Date and for the year of the occurrence of the Asset Review (any such fee, the “Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee”). The Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to each Delinquent Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) shall be paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, however, that if the related Mortgage Loan Seller is insolvent or fails to pay such amount within ninety (90) days of written invoice therefor by the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee shall be paid by the Trust following delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of a certification to the Master Servicer that the requirements for payment set forth in this Section 12.02(b) have been met. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall not deliver any such certificate unless it has invoiced payment of such amount and otherwise met the requirements for payment set forth in this Section 12.02(b), including receipt of evidence of such insolvency or failure to pay such amount. A Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have failed to pay such amount hereunder ninety (90) days after delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of an itemized invoice to such Mortgage Loan Seller by registered mail or overnight courier to the address listed in this Agreement for such Mortgage Loan Seller, or to such other address as shall be provided by such Mortgage Loan Seller for delivery of notices in accordance with this Agreement, or ninety (90) days following attempted delivery of such invoice by registered mail or overnight courier and reasonable follow -up by telephone or e-mail. Notwithstanding any payment of such fee by the Trust to the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee will remain an obligation of the related Mortgage Loan Seller and the Enforcing Servicer shall pursue remedies against such Mortgage Loan Seller to recover any such amounts to the extent paid by the Trust.

(c)                       Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to a Delinquent Loan shall be included in the Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan that was the subject of a completed Asset Review that is repurchased or substituted by a Mortgage Loan Seller, and such portion of the Purchase Price received shall be used to reimburse the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trust, as the case may be, for such fees pursuant to Section 12.02(b).

(d)                      The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed by this Agreement.

(e)                       The Asset Representations Reviewer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement in connection with the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its Asset Representations Reviewer portfolio, provided that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accepting such assignment and delegation (A) is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any state of the United States of America or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to perform the duties of the asset representations reviewer resulting from a merger, consolidation or succession that is permitted

  -456-  

 

under this Agreement, (B) executes and delivers to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator an agreement that contains an assumption by such person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by the asset representations reviewer under this Agreement from and after the date of such agreement and (C) is not a Prohibited Party under this Agreement; (ii) the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be released from its obligations under this Agreement that arose prior to the effective date of such assignment and delegation; (iii) the rate at which each of the Asset Representations Reviewer Fee and the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee (or any component thereof) is calculated shall not exceed the rate then in effect and (iv) the resigning Asset Representations Reviewer shall be responsible for the reasonable costs and expenses of each other party to this Agreement and the Rating Agencies in connection with such transfer. Upon acceptance of such assignment and delegation, the purchaser or transferee shall provide notice to each party to this Agreement and then will be the successor asset representations reviewer hereunder.

Section 12.03    Resignation of the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer may resign and be discharged from its obligations hereunder by giving written notice thereof to the other parties to this Agreement and each Rating Agency. Upon such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. If no successor asset representations reviewer shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Asset Representations Reviewer may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer will bear all reasonable costs and expenses of each party hereto and each Rating Agency in connection with its resignation.

Section 12.04    Restrictions of the Asset Representations Reviewer. Neither the Asset Representations Reviewer nor any of its Affiliates shall make any investment in any Class of Certificates; provided, however, that such prohibition shall not apply to (i) riskless principal transactions effected by a broker dealer Affiliate of the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) investments by an Affiliate of the Asset Representations Reviewer if the Asset Representations Reviewer and such Affiliate maintain policies and procedures that (A) segregate personnel involved in the activities of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement from personnel involved in such Affiliate’s investment activities and (B) prevent such Affiliate and its personnel from gaining access to information regarding the Trust and the Asset Representations Reviewer and its personnel from gaining access to such Affiliate’s information regarding its investment activities.

Section 12.05    Termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(a)                             An “Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event” means any one of the following events whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body:

(i)                                any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants or agreements or the material breach of any of its

  -457-  

 

representations or warranties under this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Trustee or to the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing greater than 25% of the Voting Rights, provided that any such failure that is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall have an additional cure period of thirty (30) days to effect such cure so long as it has commenced to cure such failure within the initial thirty (30) day period and has provided the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator with an officer’s certificate certifying that it has diligently pursued, and is continuing to pursue, such cure;

(ii)                             any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform its obligations hereunder in accordance with the Asset Review Standard in any material respect, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by any party to this Agreement;

(iii)                          any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by any party to this Agreement;

(iv)                         a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Asset Representations Reviewer, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days;

(v)                             the Asset Representations Reviewer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or liquidation committee in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities, voluntary liquidation, or similar proceedings of or relating to the Asset Representations Reviewer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(vi)                          the Asset Representations Reviewer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations.

Upon receipt by the Certificate Administrator of written notice of the occurrence of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders (which shall be simultaneously delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer) in accordance with the notice distribution procedures described in Section 12.01(a), unless the Certificate Administrator has received written notice that

  -458-  

 

such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event has been remedied. If an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall occur then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee (i) may or (ii) upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts), shall, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement, other than rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination), by notice in writing to the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer is required to bear all reasonable costs and expenses of itself and of each other party to this Agreement in connection with its termination due to an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor and each Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event of which it becomes aware.

(b)               Upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts) requesting a vote to terminate and replace the Asset Representations Reviewer with a proposed successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer and (ii) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Asset Representations Reviewer and to all Certificateholders by (i) posting such notice on its internet website, and (ii) mailing such notice to all Certificateholders at their addresses appearing in the Certificate Register and to the Asset Representations Reviewer. Upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 75% of a Certificateholder Quorum (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts), the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination and other than indemnification rights arising out of events occurring prior to such termination) by notice in writing to the Asset Representations Reviewer and appoint the proposed successor. As between the Asset Representations Reviewer, on the one hand, and the Certificateholders, on the other, the Certificateholders shall be entitled in their sole discretion to vote for the termination or not vote for the termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer. In the event that Holders of the Certificates evidencing at least 75% of the Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts) elect to remove the Asset Representations Reviewer without cause and appoint a successor, the successor asset representations reviewer will be responsible for all expenses necessary to effect the transfer of responsibilities from its predecessor.

(c)               On or after the receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of written notice of termination, subject to this Section 12.05, all of its authority and power under this Agreement shall be terminated and, without limitation, the terminated Asset Representations Reviewer shall execute any and all documents and other instruments, and do or accomplish all other acts or things reasonably necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after (1) the Asset

  -459-  

 

Representations Reviewer resigns pursuant to Section 12.03 of this Agreement or (2) the Trustee delivers such written notice of termination to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee shall appoint a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Trustee shall provide written notice of the appointment of an Asset Representations Reviewer to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder and each Certificateholder within one Business Day of such appointment.

The Asset Representations Reviewer shall at all times be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer and if the Asset Representations Reviewer ceases to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall immediately notify the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Directing Certificateholder of such disqualification and immediately resign under Section 12.03 of this Agreement and the Trustee shall appoint a successor asset representations reviewer subject to and in accordance with this Section 12.05. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee is unable to find a successor asset representations reviewer within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement. The Trustee shall not be liable for any failure to identify and appoint a successor asset representations reviewer so long as the Trustee uses commercially reasonable efforts to conduct a search for a successor asset representations reviewer and such failure is not a result of the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the performance of its obligations hereunder.

(d)               Upon any termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer and appointment of a successor to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator (who shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Certificateholders), the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Depositor, each Rating Agency and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder. In the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer is terminated, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination).

  -462-  

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations or rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary hereunder, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller, or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holder of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

(b)                       This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties hereto with the consent of the Holders of Certificates of each Class affected by such amendment evidencing in the aggregate not less than a majority of the aggregate Percentage Interests constituting the Class for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                           reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans or Whole Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                        reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then-outstanding or Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(v)                       amend the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) and, if required under the related Intercreditor Agreement, the consent of the Subordinate Companion Holder(s) for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

(c)                        Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall consent to any amendment hereto without having first

  -463-  

 

received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted hereunder and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified person in accordance with such amendment will not result in the imposition of a tax on any portion of the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC, or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to this Agreement may be made that changes any provision specifically required to be included in this Agreement by any Designated Intercreditor Agreement related to a Companion Loan without in each case the consent of the holder of the related Companion Loan(s).

(d)               No later than the effective date of any amendment to this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall post a copy of the same to the Certificate Administrator’s Website, deliver a copy of the same to the 17g-5 Information Provider who shall post a copy of the same on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) and Section 3.13(c), as applicable, and thereafter, the Certificate Administrator shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment together with a copy of such amendment in electronic format to each Certificateholder and each Serviced Companion Noteholder, the Depositor, each Other Depositor, each Other Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Underwriters and the Rating Agencies.

(e)               It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 13.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Certificate Administrator may prescribe.

(f)                The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall not be obligated to enter into any amendment pursuant to this Section 13.01 that affects its rights, duties and immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

(g)               The cost of any Opinion of Counsel to be delivered pursuant to Section 13.01(a) or Section 13.01(c) and the cost of any amendment entered into hereunder shall be borne by the Person seeking the related amendment, except that if the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee requests any amendment of this Agreement in furtherance of the rights and interests of Certificateholders, the cost of any Opinion of Counsel required in connection therewith pursuant to Section 13.01(a) or Section 13.01(c) shall be payable out of the Collection Account.

(h)               The Servicing Standard shall not be amended unless each Rating Agency provides Rating Agency Confirmation and, with respect to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies provide a confirmation that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25).

  -464-  

 

(i)                 To the extent the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or Depositor obtains an Opinion of Counsel as provided for in Section 13.01(c) in connection with executing any amendment to this Agreement, such party shall be deemed not to have acted negligently in connection with entering into such amendment for purposes of availing itself of any indemnity provided to such party under this Agreement.

(j)                 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to this Section 13.01, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor shall be entitled to the same Voting Rights with respect to matters described above as they would if any other Person held such Certificates, so long as neither the Depositor nor any of its Affiliates is performing servicing duties with respect to any of the Mortgage Loans.

(k)               This Agreement may not be amended without the consent of any holder of a Companion Loan if such amendment would materially and adversely affect the rights of such Companion Holder hereunder.

(l)                 In addition, if one but not all of the Mortgage Notes evidencing a Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers, this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment (or, if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer is requesting such amendment in connection with the fulfillment of its duties under this Agreement, at the expense of the Trust)), without the consent of any Certificateholder, to add or modify provisions relating to the applicable Repurchased Note for purposes of the servicing and administration of such Repurchased Note provided that the amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Certificateholders, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (obtained at the expense of the Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller) with respect to such amendment (or, if no such Rating Agency Confirmation is actually received, by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect). Prior to the effectiveness of such amendment, if one but not all of the Mortgage Notes with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased, the terms of Section 3.30 shall govern the servicing and administration of such Joint Mortgage Loan.

Section 13.02    Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts. (a) To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the Certificate Administrator at the expense of the Depositor on direction by the Special Servicer and with the consent of the Depositor (which may not be unreasonably withheld), but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Depositor) to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests of the Certificateholders.

(b)               For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall be valid,

  -465-  

 

binding and enforceable against a party when executed and delivered by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) an original manual signature; (ii) a faxed, scanned or photocopied manual signature; or (iii) any other electronic signature permitted by the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the Uniform Electronic Transaction Act, and/or any other relevant electronic signatures law, including any relevant provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code (collectively, “Signature Law”), in each case, to the extent applicable. Each faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature, shall for all purposes have the same validity, legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. Each party hereto shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and shall have no liability with respect to, any faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature, of any other party and shall have no duty to investigate, confirm or otherwise verify the validity or authenticity thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, original manual signatures shall be used for execution or indorsement of writings when required under the Uniform Commercial Code or other Signature Law due to the character or intended character of the writings.

(c)               The Trustee shall make any filings required under the laws of the state of its place of business required solely by virtue of the fact of the location of the Trustee’s place of business, the costs of which, if any, to be at the Trustee’s expense.

Section 13.03    Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders. (a) The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust, nor entitle such Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.

(b)               No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as expressly provided for herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the Trust, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any third party by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.

(c)               No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, any Intercreditor Agreement, any Mortgage Loan, or with respect to the Certificates, unless, with respect to any suit, action or proceeding upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator a written notice of default, and of the continuance thereof, as herein before provided, or of the need to institute such suit, action or proceeding on behalf of the Trust and unless also (except in the case of a default by the Trustee) the Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing not less than 25% of the related Percentage Interests in such Class shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of such indemnity, shall have

  -466-  

 

neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it hereunder or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders of Certificates unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or hereby. It is understood and intended, and expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of any provision of this Agreement or the Certificates to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, which priority or preference is not otherwise provided for herein, or to enforce any right under this Agreement or the Certificates, except in the manner herein or therein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section 13.03(c), each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

Section 13.04    Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES THEREOF. THE PARTIES HERETO INTEND THAT THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SHALL APPLY TO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 13.06    Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates or the rights of the Holders thereof.

Section 13.07    Grant of a Security Interest. The Depositor intends that the conveyance of the Conveyed Property shall constitute a sale and not a pledge of security for a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge of security for a loan, however, the Depositor intends that the rights and obligations of the parties to such loan shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Depositor also intends and agrees that, in such event, (i) the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted to the Trustee (in such capacity) a first priority security interest in the Depositor’s entire right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, the Conveyed Property and all proceeds thereof and (ii) this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. The Depositor shall file or cause to be filed, as a precautionary filing, a UCC Financing Statement in all appropriate locations in the State of Delaware promptly following the initial issuance of the Certificates, and the Certificate Administrator shall, at the expense of the Depositor (to the extent reasonable), prepare and file continuation statements with respect thereto, in each case in the six-month period prior to every fifth anniversary of the date of the initial UCC Financing Statement. The Depositor shall cooperate in a reasonable manner with the Certificate Administrator in the preparation and filing of such continuation statements. This Section 13.07 shall constitute notice to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee pursuant to any of the requirements of the applicable UCC.

Section 13.08    Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto, and all such provisions shall inure to the benefit of the Certificateholders. Each Mortgage Loan Seller (and its respective agents), each Companion Holder (and its respective agents), each Underwriter, each depositor of a Regulation AB Companion Loan Securitization, each Other Exchange Act Reporting Party (with respect to its rights under Article XI of this Agreement) and each Initial Purchaser is an intended third-party beneficiary to this Agreement in respect of the respective rights afforded it hereunder. No other person, including, without limitation, any Mortgagor, shall be entitled to any benefit or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement. If one, but not all, of the Mortgage Notes evidencing any Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement to the same extent as if it were a Companion Holder, as contemplated by Section 3.30 hereof.

(b)               Each Serviced Companion Noteholder shall be a third-party beneficiary to this Agreement in respect to the rights afforded it hereunder. Each of the Other Servicers and the Other Trustees shall be a third-party beneficiary to this Agreement in respect to all provisions herein expressly relating to compensation, reimbursement or indemnification of such Other

  -474-  

 

Servicer and Other Trustee, and any provisions regarding reimbursement or advances or interest thereon to such Other Servicer or Other Trustee.

(c)               Each of the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee, Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer, Non-Serviced Depositor, Non-Serviced Paying Agent and any Non-Serviced Trust holding a related Non-Serviced Companion Loan, shall be a third-party beneficiary to this Agreement in respect to its rights as specifically provided for herein and under the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement.

(d)               Subject to Section 2.03(k), Section 2.03(l)(iv) and Section 2.03(l)(v), any Requesting Certificateholder shall be an express third-party beneficiary to this Agreement for purposes of exercising rights under Section 2.03(k) through Section 2.03(o).

Section 13.09    Article and Section Headings. The article and section headings herein are for convenience of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

Section 13.10    Notices to the Rating Agencies. (a) The Certificate Administrator shall use reasonable efforts promptly to provide notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), (and the related 17g-5 information provider for any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities to the extent applicable to any Serviced Whole Loan) with respect to each of the following of which it has actual knowledge:

(i)                      any material change or amendment to this Agreement;

  -475-  

 

(v)                         any additional lease to an anchor tenant or termination of any existing lease to an anchor tenant at retail properties for any Mortgage Loan with a Stated Principal Balance that is equal to or greater than the lesser of (1) an amount greater than 5% of the then-aggregate outstanding principal balances of the Mortgage Loans and (2) $35,000,000;

(viii)                any release or substitution of any Mortgaged Property.

(c)               The Certificate Administrator shall promptly furnish notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), and thereafter to the Rating Agencies of (i) any change in the location of the Distribution Accounts and (ii) the final payment to any Class of Certificateholders.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, may include any reasonable disclaimer it deems appropriate with respect to such information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Section 13.10 shall require a party to provide duplicative notices or copies to the Rating Agencies with respect to any of the above listed items. In connection with the delivery by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to the 17g-5 Information Provider of any information, report, notice or document for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, the 17g-5 Information Provider shall notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer when such information, report, notice or document has been posted. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may, but shall not be obligated to send such information, report, notice or document to the applicable Rating Agency so long as such information, report, notice or document (i) was previously provided to the 17g-5 Information Provider or (ii) is simultaneously provided, by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day, to the 17g-5 Information Provider.

Section 13.11    Cooperation with the Mortgage Loan Sellers with Respect to Rights Under the Mortgage Loan Agreements. It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Mortgage Loan documents, it is expressly intended that the Mortgage Loan Sellers are entitled to the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions that specifically run to the benefit of the lenders in the Mortgage Loan documents. Therefore, the Depositor, Master Servicer, Special Servicer and Trustee hereby agree to reasonably cooperate with any Mortgage Loan Seller, at the sole expense of such Mortgage Loan Seller, with respect to obtaining the benefits of the provisions of any section of a loan agreement or securitization cooperation

  -476-  

 

agreement providing for indemnification of the lender and/or its loan seller affiliates with respect to the current securitization of the related Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, executing any documents as are reasonably necessary to permit the related Mortgage Loan Seller to enforce such provisions for its benefit; provided, that none of the Depositor, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee shall take any action that is inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, would violate applicable law, the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan documents, would adversely affect any Certificateholder, would cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes, or would result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions. To the extent that the Trustee is required to execute any document facilitating the above rights of a Mortgage Loan Seller under this Section 13.11, such document shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

A-1-13

the consent of the Retaining Sponsor, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations or rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holder of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of Certificates of each Class affected by such amendment evidencing in the aggregate not less than a majority of the aggregate Percentage Interests constituting the Class for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                         reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans or Whole Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                      reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then-outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(v)                     amend the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and, if required under the

A-1-14

related Intercreditor Agreement, the consent of the Subordinate Companion Holder(s) for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified person in accordance with such amendment will not result in the imposition of a tax on any portion of the Trust Fund, any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust, cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provision specifically required to be included therein by any Designated Intercreditor Agreement related to a Companion Loan without in each case the consent of the holder of the related Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer servicing the greater principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of that time, the other Special Servicer, the Master Servicer servicing the greater principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of that time, the other Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, in that order of priority, may, at their option, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of the first paragraph of Section 9.01 in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of purchase; provided, however, that the Holders of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, or the Holders of the Class R Certificates may so elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund only on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class D Certificates and the Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B and Class C Upper-Tier Regular Interests are no longer outstanding (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right, with the consent of the Master Servicer, to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) together with the payment or deemed payment of the Termination Purchase Amount for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation,

A-1-15

any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date hereof.

evidencing a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, consisting primarily of a pool of commercial mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), all payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date, all REO Properties and revenues received in respect thereof, the mortgagee’s rights under the insurance policies, any Assignment of Leases, and any guaranties or other collateral as security for the Mortgage Loans and such amounts as shall from time to time be held in the Collection Account, the Distribution Accounts, the Interest Reserve Account, the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account and the REO Accounts, formed and sold by

J.P. MORGAN CHASE COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORP.

THIS CERTIFIES THAT [____________________] is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class R Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among J.P. MORGAN CHASE COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORP. (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the percentage interest specified on the face hereof. The Certificates are designated as the BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5YR6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust Fund.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Class R Certificate represents a “residual interest” in two “real estate mortgage investment conduits”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income. The

A-2-4

Certificate Administrator shall be the “partnership representative” within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code for each Trust REMIC and shall perform all the functions thereof. The Holders of the Class R Certificates, by their acceptance hereof, agree to such designation.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, distributions, if any, on this Certificate shall be made by the Certificate Administrator in an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) thereof and to the extent and subject to the limitations set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, on the Distribution Date to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust Fund.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final

A-2-5

distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate, subject to applicable law with respect to escheatment of funds. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(h) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions. The rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions: (A) no Person holding any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be a Disqualified Organization or agent thereof (including a nominee, middleman or similar person) (an “Agent”), a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of or using the assets of a Plan (such Plan or Person, an “ERISA Prohibited Holder”) or a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person and each Person holding any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of any change or impending change to such status; (B) in connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall require delivery to it, and no Transfer of any Class R Certificate shall be registered until the Certificate Registrar receives (I) an affidavit substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit D-1 (a “Transferee Affidavit”) from the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, representing and warranting, among other things, that such Transferee is not a Disqualified Organization or Agent thereof or a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person, and that it has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.03(p) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and agrees to be bound by them and (II) a representation letter, substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit F-2 from the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, representing and warranting, among other things, that such Transferee is not an ERISA Prohibited Holder; (C) notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed Transferee under clause (B) above, if the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is a Disqualified Organization or Agent thereof, an ERISA Prohibited Holder or a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be effected; and (D) each Person holding any Ownership Interest in a

A-2-6

Class R Certificate shall agree (1) to require a Transferee Affidavit from any prospective Transferee to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Ownership Interest in such Class R Certificate and (2) not to transfer its Ownership Interest in such Class R Certificate unless it provides to the Certificate Registrar a letter substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit D-2 certifying that, among other things, it has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the proposed Transferee’s statements in such Transferee Affidavit are false.

The Class R Certificates will be issued in fully registered, certificated form, in minimum percentage interests of 10% and integral multiples of 1% in excess thereof.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, or any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

(i)                        to correct any defect or ambiguity in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in order to address any manifest error in any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(iii)                  to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the P&I Advance Date shall in no event be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion

(iv)                  to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code at all times that any Certificate is outstanding, or to avoid or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on the Trust, any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust; provided that the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the effect that (a) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any such tax and (b) such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or Companion Holder;

(v)                     to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of Section 5.03(o) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement restricting transfer of the Class R Certificates; provided the Depositor has determined that such change shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, cause the Trust, any Trust REMIC or any of the Certificateholders (other than the Transferor) to be subject to a federal tax caused by a Transfer to a Person that is a Disqualified Organization or a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person;

(vi)                  to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other change; provided that the required action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or any holder of a Serviced Companion Loan not consenting to such revision or addition as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies with respect to such amendment or supplement and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement);

(vii)               to amend or supplement any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to the extent necessary to maintain the then-current ratings assigned to each Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be

A-2-8

considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); provided that such amendment or supplement shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder not consenting to such amendment or supplement, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel;

(viii)            to modify the provisions of Sections 3.05 and 3.17 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances and Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts) if (a) the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and, for so long as a Control Termination Event has not occurred and is not continuing and with respect to the Mortgage Loans other than any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Directing Certificateholder, determine that the commercial mortgage-backed securities industry standard for such provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such modification does not adversely affect the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or the status of the Grantor Trust as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with regard to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies have delivered a confirmation that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement);

(ix)                   to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to compliance with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that such amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respects the interests of any Certificateholders, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Certificates; and provided, further, that the Certificate Administrator shall give notice of any such amendment to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Certificate Administrator shall post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website;

(x)                      to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to such extent as will be necessary to comply with the requirements for use of Form SF-3 in registered offerings to the extent provided in 17 C.F.R. 239.45(b)(1)(ii), (iii) or (iv); or

A-2-9

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations or rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holder of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of Certificates of each Class affected by such amendment evidencing in the aggregate not less than a majority of the aggregate Percentage Interests constituting the Class for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                         reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans or Whole Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

A-2-10

to Section 3.25 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and, if required under the related Intercreditor Agreement, the consent of the Subordinate Companion Holder(s) for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified person in accordance with such amendment will not result in the imposition of a tax on any portion of the Trust Fund, any Trust REMIC or the Grantor Trust, cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provision specifically required to be included therein by any Designated Intercreditor Agreement related to a Companion Loan without in each case the consent of the holder of the related Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer servicing the greater principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of that time, the other Special Servicer, the Master Servicer servicing the greater principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of that time, the other Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, in that order of priority, may, at their option, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of the first paragraph of Section 9.01 in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement no later than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of purchase; provided, however, that the Holders of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, or the Holders of the Class R Certificates may so elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund only on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class D Certificates and the Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B and Class C Upper-Tier Regular Interests are no longer outstanding (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right, with the consent of the Master Servicer, to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) together with the payment or deemed payment of the Termination Purchase Amount for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

A-2-11

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

Re: Transfer of BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5YR6

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is delivered pursuant to Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among J.P. Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Corp., as Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, on behalf of the holders of BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5YR6 in connection with the transfer by _________________ (the “Seller”) to the undersigned (the “Purchaser”) of $_______________ aggregate [Certificate Balance][Notional Amount][__% Percentage Interest] of Class ___ Certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”).

In connection with such transfer, the Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to you and the addressees hereof as follows:

1.       Check one of the following:^*

☐ The Purchaser is not purchasing a Class R Certificate and the Purchaser is an institution that is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or any entity in which all of the equity owners are “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D (each, an “Institutional Accredited Investor”) and has such

C-1

knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Certificates, and the Purchaser and any accounts for which it is acting are each able to bear the economic risk of the Purchaser’s or such account’s investment. The Purchaser is acquiring the Certificates purchased by it for its own account or for one or more accounts, each of which is an Institutional Accredited Investor, as to each of which the Purchaser exercises sole investment discretion. The Purchaser hereby undertakes to reimburse the Trust for any costs incurred by it in connection with this transfer.

☐ The Purchaser is a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”) within the meaning of Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) under the Securities Act. The Purchaser is aware that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, and the Purchaser has had the opportunity to obtain the information required to be provided pursuant to paragraph (d)(4)(i) of Rule 144A.

2.       The Purchaser’s intention is to acquire the Certificates (a) for investment for the Purchaser’s own account or (b) for reoffer, resale, pledge or other transfer (i) to QIBs in transactions under Rule 144A, and not in any event with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, or (ii) (other than with respect to a Class R Certificate) to Institutional Accredited Investors, subject in the case of clause (ii) above to (w) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a letter substantially in the form hereof, (x) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Trustee and Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act, (y) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of such other evidence acceptable to the Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and other applicable laws and (z) a written undertaking to reimburse the Trust for any costs incurred by it in connection with the proposed transfer. The Purchaser understands that the Certificates (and any subsequent Certificates) have not been registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specified exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Purchaser’s investment intent (or intent to reoffer, resell, pledge or transfer the Certificates only to certain investors in certain exempted transactions) as expressed herein.

3.       The Purchaser has reviewed the Preliminary Prospectus and the Final Prospectus relating to the Offered Certificates (collectively, the “Prospectus”) (and, with respect to Offered Private Certificates, the Preliminary Private Placement Memorandum and the Final Private Placement Memorandum related to such Offered Private Certificates) and the agreements and other materials referred to therein and has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Prospectus.

4.       The Purchaser acknowledges that the Certificates (and any Certificates issued on transfer or exchange thereof) have not been registered or qualified under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any State or any other jurisdiction, and that the Certificates cannot be reoffered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred unless it is registered or qualified thereunder or unless an exemption from such registration or qualification is available.

C-2

6.       The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer any portion of the Certificate or Certificates, except in compliance with Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

The Purchaser agrees to provide to the Certificate Registrar updated [IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8IMY or]*** IRS Form W-8ECI, [as the case may be,]*** any applicable successor IRS forms, or such other certifications as the Certificate Registrar may reasonably request, on or before the date that any such IRS form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent IRS form of certification furnished by it to the Certificate Registrar.

Re: BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5YR6 (the “Certificates”) issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), dated as of May 1, 2024, among J.P.

STATE OF	)
	)	ss.:
COUNTY OF	)

I, [______], under penalties of perjury, declare that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the following representations are true, correct and complete, and being first sworn, depose and say that:

1.       I am a [______] of [______] (the “Purchaser”), on behalf of which I have the authority to make this affidavit.

2.       The Purchaser is acquiring Class R Certificates representing [__]% of the residual interest in each of the real estate mortgage investment conduits (each, a “Trust REMIC”) designated as the (i)  “Lower-Tier REMIC” and (ii) “Upper-Tier REMIC”, respectively, relating to the Certificates for which an election is to be made under Section 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

3.       The Purchaser is not a “Disqualified Organization” (as defined below), and that the Purchaser is not acquiring the Class R Certificates for the account of, or as agent or nominee of, or with a view to the transfer of direct or indirect record or beneficial ownership thereof, to a Disqualified Organization. For the purposes hereof, a Disqualified Organization is any of the following: (i) the United States, any State or political subdivision thereof, any possession of the United States or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other

D-1-1

than an instrumentality which is a corporation if all of its activities are subject to tax and, except for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, a majority of its board of directors is not selected by such governmental unit), (ii) a foreign government, any international organization or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing, (iii) any organization which is exempt from the tax imposed by Chapter 1 of the Code (including the tax imposed by Section 511 of the Code on unrelated business taxable income) on any excess inclusions (as defined in Section 860E(c)(1) of the Code) with respect to the Class R Certificates (except certain farmers’ cooperatives described in Section 521 of the Code), (iv) rural electric and telephone cooperatives described in Section 1381(a)(2)(C) of the Code and (v) any other Person so designated by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator based upon an Opinion of Counsel as provided to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator (at no expense to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator) that the holding of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate by such Person may cause a Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or any Person having an Ownership Interest in any Class of Certificates (other than such Person) to incur a liability for any federal tax imposed under the Code that would not otherwise be imposed but for the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate to such Person. The terms “United States,” “State” and “international organization” shall have the meanings set forth in Section 7701 of the Code or successor provisions.

4.       The Purchaser acknowledges that Section 860E(e) of the Code would impose a substantial tax on the transferor or, in certain circumstances, on an agent for the transferee, with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Class R Certificates to a Disqualified Organization.

5.       The Purchaser is a Permitted Transferee and, to the extent applicable, the Purchaser’s U.S. taxpayer identification number is [__________].

6.       No purpose of the acquisition of the Class R Certificates is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

7.       The Purchaser will not cause income from the Class R Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Purchaser or any other person.

8.       Check the applicable paragraph:

☐                The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the Class R Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:

(i)               the present value of any consideration given to the Purchaser to acquire such Class R Certificate;

(ii)            the present value of the expected future distributions on such Class R Certificate; and

(iii)         the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding such Class R Certificate as the related Trust REMIC generates losses.

D-1-2

For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Purchaser is assumed to pay tax at the highest rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but the tax rate in Section 55(b)(1)(B) of the Code may be used in lieu of the highest rate specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Purchaser has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the preceding two years and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period used by the Purchaser.

☐                The transfer of the Class R Certificate complies with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,

(i)               the Purchaser is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the Class R Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;

(ii)            at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Purchaser’s two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the Purchaser had gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person related to the Purchaser within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10 million;

(iii)         the Purchaser will transfer the Class R Certificate only to another “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(5); and

(iv)        the Purchaser determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Class R Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including, but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific to the Purchaser) that it has determined in good faith.

☐                None of the above.

9.       The Purchaser historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future and the Purchaser intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Class R Certificates as they become due.

10.     The Purchaser understands that it may incur tax liabilities with respect to the Class R Certificate in excess of any cash flows generated by such Certificate.

11.     The Purchaser is aware that the Certificate Registrar will not register any transfer of a Class R Certificate by the Transferor unless the Purchaser, or such Purchaser’s agent, delivers to the Certificate Registrar, among other things, an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement. The Purchaser expressly agrees that it will not consummate any such transfer if it knows or believes that any representation contained in such affidavit and agreement is false.

D-1-3

12.    The Purchaser represents that it is not acquiring the Class R Certificate as a nominee, trustee or agent for any person that is not a Permitted Transferee and that for so long as it retains its interest in the Class R Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee.

13.    The Purchaser consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificate will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by a Permitted Transferee.

14.    The Purchaser has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, a description of which provisions is set forth in the Class R Certificates; and the Purchaser expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such provisions.

15.    The Purchaser consents to the designation of the Certificate Administrator as the “partnership representative” of each Trust REMIC pursuant to Section 10.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

[OR OTHER CERTIFICATE REGISTRAR]

Re: BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5YR6 (the “Certificates”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is delivered to you in connection with the transfer by [______] (the “Transferor”) to [______] (the “Transferee”) of Class R Certificates evidencing a [__]% Percentage Interest in such Class (the “Residual Certificates”). The Certificates, including the Residual Certificates, were issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among J.P. Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Corp., as Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as Certificate Registrar, that:

(1)       No purpose of the Transferor relating to the transfer of the Residual Certificates by the Transferor to the Transferee is or will be to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.

(2)       The Transferor understands that the Transferee has delivered to you a Transferee Affidavit in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit D-1. The Transferor does not know or believe that any representation contained therein is false.

(3)       The Transferor has at the time of this transfer conducted a reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Transferee as contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i) and, as a result of that investigation, the Transferor has determined that the Transferee has historically paid its debts as they became due and has found no significant evidence to indicate that the Transferee will not continue to pay its debts as they become due in the future. The Transferor understands that the transfer of the Residual Certificates may not be respected for United States income tax purposes (and the Transferor may continue to be liable for

D-2-1

United States income taxes associated therewith) unless the Transferor has conducted such an investigation.

Very truly yours,
	(Transferor)

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

This Confidentiality Agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) is made in connection with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (together with its affiliates, the “Furnishing Entities” and each a “Furnishing Entity”) furnishing certain financial, operational, structural and other information relating to the issuance of the BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5YR6 (the “Certificates”) pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among J.P. Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Corp., as Depositor (the “Depositor”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC, as Special Servicer, Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator, as Custodian and as Trustee and the assets underlying or referenced by the Certificates, including the identity of, and financial information with respect to borrowers, sponsors, guarantors, managers and lessees with respect to such assets (together, the “Collateral”) to you (the “NRSRO”) through the website of Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as 17g-5 Information Provider under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, including the [section of the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website that hosts the Depositor’s 17g-5 website after the Closing Date (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement)]. Information provided by each Furnishing Entity is labeled as provided by the specific Furnishing Entity.

Definition of Confidential Information. For purposes of this Confidentiality Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall include the following information (irrespective of its source or form of communication, including information obtained by you through access to this site) that may be furnished to you by or on behalf of a Furnishing Entity in connection with the issuance or monitoring of a rating with respect to the Certificates: (x) all data, reports, interpretations, forecasts, records, agreements, legal documents and other information (such information, the “Evaluation Material”) and (y)  any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, including the status thereof; provided, however, that the term Confidential Information shall not include information which:

was or becomes generally available to the public (including through filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission or disclosure in an offering document) other than as a result of a disclosure by you or a NRSRO Representative (as defined in Section 2(c)(i) below) in violation of this Confidentiality Agreement;

was or is lawfully obtained by you from a source other than a Furnishing Entity or its representatives that (i) is reasonably believed by you to be under no obligation to maintain the information as confidential and (ii) provides it to you without any obligation to maintain the information as confidential; or

is independently developed by the NRSRO without reference to any Confidential Information.

Information to Be Held in Confidence.

You will use the Confidential Information solely for the purpose of determining or monitoring a credit rating on the Certificates and, to the extent that any information used is derived from but does not reveal any Confidential Information, for benchmarking, modeling or research purposes (the “Intended Purpose”).

You acknowledge that you are aware that the United States and state securities laws impose restrictions on trading in securities when in possession of material, non-public information and that the NRSRO will advise (through policy manuals or otherwise) each NRSRO Representative who is informed of the matters that are the subject of this Confidentiality Agreement to that effect.

You will treat the Confidential Information as private and confidential. Subject to Section 4, without the prior written consent of the applicable Furnishing Entity, you will not disclose to any person any Confidential Information, whether such Confidential Information was furnished to you before, on or after the date of this Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may:

  P-2-3  

 

disclose the Confidential Information to any of the NRSRO’s affiliates, directors, officers, employees, legal representatives, agents and advisors (each, a “NRSRO Representative”) who, in the reasonable judgment of the NRSRO, need to know such Confidential Information in connection with the Intended Purpose; provided, that, prior to disclosure of the Confidential Information to a NRSRO Representative, the NRSRO shall have taken reasonable precautions to ensure, and shall be satisfied, that such NRSRO Representative will act in accordance with this Confidentiality Agreement;

solely to the extent required for compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3) of the Act (17 C.F.R. 240.17g-5), post the Confidential Information to the NRSRO’s password protected website; and

use information derived from the Confidential Information in connection with an Intended Purpose, if such derived information does not reveal any Confidential Information.

Disclosures Required by Law. If you or any NRSRO Representative is requested or required (orally or in writing, by interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigatory demand, request for information or documents, deposition or similar process relating to any legal proceeding, investigation, hearing or otherwise) to disclose any Confidential Information, you agree to provide the relevant Furnishing Entity with notice as soon as practicable (except in the case of regulatory or other governmental inquiry, examination or investigation, and otherwise to the extent practical and permitted by law, regulation or regulatory or other governmental authority) that a request to disclose the Confidential Information has been made so that the relevant Furnishing Entity may seek an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information if it so chooses. Unless otherwise required by a court or other governmental or regulatory authority to do so, and provided that you been informed by written notice that the related Furnishing Entity is seeking a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment with respect to the requested Confidential Information, you agree not to disclose the Confidential Information while the Furnishing Entity’s effort to obtain such a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment is pending. You agree to reasonably cooperate with each Furnishing Entity in its efforts to obtain a protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the portion of the Confidential Information that is being disclosed, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity; provided, however, that in no event shall the NRSRO be required to take a position that such information should be entitled to receive such a protective order or reasonable assurance as to confidential treatment. If a Furnishing Entity succeeds in obtaining a protective order or other remedy, you agree to comply with its terms with respect to the disclosure of the Confidential Information, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity. If a protective order or other remedy is not obtained or if the relevant Furnishing Entity waives compliance with the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement in writing, you agree to furnish only such information as you are legally required to disclose, at the sole expense of the relevant Furnishing Entity.

Obligation to Return Evaluation Material. Promptly upon written request by or on behalf of the relevant Furnishing Entity, all material or documents, including copies thereof, that contain Evaluation Material will be destroyed or, in your sole discretion, returned to the relevant Furnishing Entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the NRSRO may retain one or more copies of any document or other material containing Evaluation Material to the extent necessary for legal or regulatory compliance (or compliance with the NRSRO’s internal policies and procedures designed to ensure legal or regulatory compliance) and (b) the NRSRO may retain any portion of the Evaluation Material that may be found in backup tapes or other archive or electronic media or other documents prepared by the NRSRO and any Evaluation Material obtained in an oral communication; provided, that any Evaluation Material so retained by the NRSRO will remain subject to this Confidentiality Agreement and the NRSRO will remain bound by the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement.

Violations of this Confidentiality Agreement.

The NRSRO will be responsible for any breach of this Confidentiality Agreement by you, the NRSRO or any NRSRO Representative.

You agree promptly to advise each relevant Furnishing Entity in writing of any misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure or use by any person of the Confidential Information which may come to your attention and to take all steps reasonably requested by such Furnishing Entity to limit, stop or otherwise remedy such misappropriation, or unauthorized disclosure or use.

  P-2-4  

 

You acknowledge and agree that the Furnishing Entities would not have an adequate remedy at law and would be irreparably harmed in the event that any of the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that each Furnishing Entity shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief to prevent breaches of this Confidentiality Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which a Furnishing Entity may be entitled at law or in equity. It is further understood and agreed that no failure to or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege.

Term. Notwithstanding the termination or cancellation of this Confidentiality Agreement and regardless of whether the NRSRO has provided a credit rating on a Security, your obligations under this Confidentiality Agreement will survive indefinitely.

Governing Law. This Confidentiality Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under the Confidentiality Agreement, the relationships of the parties and/or the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed within such State.

Amendments. This Confidentiality Agreement may be modified or waived only by a separate writing by the NRSRO and each Furnishing Entity.

Entire Agreement. This Confidentiality Agreement represents the entire agreement between you and the Furnishing Entities relating to the treatment of Confidential Information heretofore or hereafter reviewed or inspected by you. This agreement supersedes all other understandings and agreements between us relating to such matters; provided, however, that, if the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement conflict with another agreement relating to the Confidential Information that specifically states that the terms of such agreement shall supersede, modify or amend the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement, then to the extent the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement conflict with such agreement, the terms of such agreement shall control notwithstanding acceptance by you of the terms hereof by entry into this website.

Re: BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5YR6

Mortgage Loan (the “Mortgage Loan”) identified by loan number _____ [and loan number [_______]] on the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and heretofore secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule by the following names:____________________
____________________

Reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement described above. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As Master Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, we hereby:

(a)                      Notify you that the Mortgagor has consummated a defeasance of the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan, of the type checked below:

____          a full defeasance of the entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; or

____          a partial defeasance of a portion of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan that represents and, an allocated loan amount of $____________ or _______% of the entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan;

(b)                    Certify that each of the following is true, subject to those exceptions set forth with explanatory notes on Exhibit A hereto, which exceptions the Master Servicer has determined, consistent with the Servicing Standards, will have no material adverse effect on the Mortgage Loan or the defeasance transaction:

(i)                        The Mortgage Loan documents permit the defeasance, and the terms and conditions for defeasance specified therein were satisfied in all material respects in completing the defeasance.

(ii)                     The defeasance was consummated on __________, 20__.

(iii)                  The defeasance collateral consists of securities that (i) constitute “government securities” as defined in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (15 U.S.C. 80A1), (ii) are listed as “Qualified Investments for ‘AAA’ Financings” under Paragraphs 1, 2 or 3 of “Cash Flow Approach” in Standard & Poor’s Public Finance Criteria 2000, as amended to the date of the defeasance, (iii) if they include a principal obligation, the principal due at maturity cannot vary or change, and (iv) are not subject to prepayment, call or early redemption.

(iv)                 The Master Servicer received an opinion of counsel (from counsel approved by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard) that the defeasance will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.

U-2

 

(v)                    The Master Servicer determined that the defeasance collateral will be owned by an entity (the “Defeasance Obligor”) that is a Single-Purpose Entity (as defined in Standard & Poor’s Structured Finance Ratings Real Estate Finance Criteria, as amended to the date of the defeasance (the “S&P Criteria”)) or is subject to restrictions in its organizational documents substantially similar to those contained in the organization documents of the original Borrower with respect to bankruptcy remoteness and single purpose as of the date of the defeasance, and after the defeasance owns no assets other than the defeasance collateral and real property securing Mortgage Loans included in the pool.

(vi)                 The defeasance documents require the crediting of the defeasance collateral to an Eligible Account (as defined in the S&P Criteria) in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, which account is maintained as a securities account by a securities intermediary and has been pledged to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust.

(vii)              The agreements executed in connection with the defeasance (i) grant control of the pledged securities account to Trustee on behalf of the Trust, (ii) require the securities intermediary to make the scheduled payments on the Mortgage Loan from the proceeds of the defeasance collateral directly to the Master Servicer’s collection account in the amounts and on the dates specified in the Mortgage Loan documents or, in a partial defeasance, the portion of such scheduled payments attributed to the allocated loan amount for the real property defeased, increased by any defeasance premium specified in the Mortgage Loan documents (the “Scheduled Payments”), (iii) permit reinvestment of proceeds of the defeasance collateral only in Permitted Investments (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or as defined in the documents evidencing the defeasance), (iv) permit release of surplus defeasance collateral and earnings on reinvestment from the pledged securities account only after the Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, if any such release is permitted, (v) prohibit transfers by the Defeasance Obligor of the defeasance collateral and subordinate liens against the defeasance collateral, and (vi) provide for payment from sources other than the defeasance collateral or other assets of the Defeasance Obligor of all fees and expenses of the securities intermediary for administering the defeasance and the securities account and all fees and expenses of maintaining the existence of the Defeasance Obligor.

(viii)           The Master Servicer received written confirmation from a firm of independent certified public accountants, who were approved by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard stating that (i) revenues from the defeasance collateral (without taking into account any earnings on reinvestment of such revenues) will be sufficient to timely pay each of the Scheduled Payments after the defeasance including the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan (or the allocated portion thereof in connection with a partial defeasance) on its Maturity Date, (ii) the revenues received in any month from the defeasance collateral will be applied to make Scheduled Payments within four (4) months after the date of receipt, and (iii) interest income from the defeasance collateral to the Defeasance Obligor in any calendar or fiscal year will not exceed such Defeasance Obligor’s interest expense for the Mortgage Loan (or the allocated portion thereof in a partial defeasance) for such year.

U-3

 

(ix)                   The Mortgage Loan is not among the ten (10) largest loans in the pool as of the date of the Current Report (as defined below). The entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan as of the date of defeasance was less than both $[______] and five percent of pool balance, which is less than [__]% of the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Certificates as of the date of the most recent Distribution Date Statement received by us (the “Current Report”).

(x)                      The Master Servicer has received opinions of counsel stating that the Trustee on behalf of the Trust possesses a valid, perfected first priority security interest in the defeasance collateral and that the documents executed in connection with the defeasance are enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.

(c)       Certify that Exhibit B hereto is a list of the material agreements, instruments, organizational documents for the Defeasance Obligor, and opinions of counsel and independent accountants executed and delivered in connection with the defeasance.

(d)       Certify that the individual under whose hand the Master Servicer has caused this Notice and Certification to be executed did constitute a Servicing Officer as of the date of the defeasance described above.

(e)       Agree to provide copies of all items listed in Exhibit B to you upon request.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Master Servicer has caused this Notice and Certification to be executed as of the date captioned above.

Re: Access to Certain Information Regarding BANK5 Trust 2024-5YR6, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5YR6

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is hereby made to that certain Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among the J.P. Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage Securities Corp., as Depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Park Bridge Lender Services LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer. Defined terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

[Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”)] [LNR Partners, LLC (“LNR Partners”)] understands that [____] (the “Company”) is requesting certain confidential or non-public information relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Company has continuing rights as a Certificateholder. The Company is requesting such information for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Company may have under the Trust (the “Permitted Purpose”). The Company agrees that the Permitted Purpose shall not include the use or disclosure of the Confidential Information (as defined below) in any manner that violates any applicable law, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the related mortgage loan documents.

[Wells Fargo][LNR Partners] will provide the Company with certain confidential, non-public servicing information (the “Confidential Information”) pertaining to the Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgaged Properties and borrowers. The Company acknowledges that the Confidential Information (a) includes or may be based upon information provided to [Wells Fargo][ LNR Partners] by third parties, (b) may not have been verified by [Wells Fargo][ LNR Partners], and

X-1

 

[________] [___], 20[_]

Page 2

(c) may be incomplete or contain inaccuracies. The Company agrees that [Wells Fargo][LNR Partners], the [“Master Servicer”][“ Special Servicer”] (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and its respective Representatives (as defined below) shall not have any liability to the Company or its Representatives resulting from (x) any inaccuracies or omissions in the Confidential Information, (y) any use of the Confidential Information, or (z) [Wells Fargo’s][LNR Partners’] failure or inability to provide the Confidential Information to the Company for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following will not constitute “Confidential Information” for purposes of this letter agreement: (a) information that was already in Company’s possession prior to its receipt from [Wells Fargo][LNR Partners]; (b) information that is obtained by Company from a third person who, insofar as is known to Company, is not prohibited from transmitting the information to Company by a contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation to [Wells Fargo][LNR Partners]; (c) information that is or becomes publicly available through no fault of Company; and (d) information that is independently developed by Company. The term “Representatives” with respect to any entity shall mean the officers, directors, general partners, employees, agents, affiliates, auditors and legal counsel (which may be internal counsel) of that entity.

The Company may have access to the Confidential Information through (at [Wells Fargo’s][LNR Partners’] election): (i) responses to reasonable written inquiries received from the Company, (ii) conference calls conducted on a reasonably scheduled basis with [Wells Fargo’s][LNR Partners’] surveillance group, or (iii) direct on-line access (read-only capacity) to the information available on the applicable [____] system or any successor or replacement system (“System”). [Wells Fargo][LNR Partners] may cease or defer providing the Company with Confidential Information in the event that (a) the Company or its Representatives violate any provision hereof, or (b) [Wells Fargo][LNR Partners] determines (in its sole discretion) that such termination is necessary for any reason, including its determination that such action is required pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the related Mortgage Loan documents, or any applicable law. [Wells Fargo][LNR Partners] shall cease to provide the Company with Confidential Information if [Wells Fargo][LNR Partners] has actual knowledge that the Company or its Representatives are affiliates of any borrower under the Mortgage Loan documents and [Wells Fargo][LNR Partners] determines that the provision, notice or access to such Confidential Information would violate the accepted servicing practices or servicing standards as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Company’s obligations and the restrictions applicable to the protection of the Confidential Information hereunder shall survive the termination of the Company’s access to the Confidential Information. [Wells Fargo’s][LNR Partners’] remedies hereunder, at law or at equity, are cumulative and may be combined.

The Company agrees that it will not, and it shall not permit its Representatives, to disclose the Confidential Information in any manner whatsoever to any other person or entity, other than its Representatives (but only to the extent necessary to accomplish the Permitted Purpose) who have a need to know the information, or as otherwise required by applicable law, court order or any governmental agency or regulator. The Company acknowledges (i) its obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws, and (ii) that any disclosure of the Confidential Information by it or its Representatives for any purpose other than a Permitted Purpose, in addition to being a breach of this letter agreement, may constitute a violation of federal and state securities laws. The Company will take reasonable measures to ensure that each Representative is advised of this letter agreement

X-2

 

[________] [___], 20[_]

and agrees to keep the Confidential Information confidential. The Company shall be liable for any breach of this letter agreement by its Representatives and shall indemnify the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and the Trust Fund for any loss, liability or expense incurred thereby with respect to any such breach by the Company or any of its Representatives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may subsequently provide all or any part of such Confidential Information to any other person or entity that holds or is contemplating the purchase of any Certificate or interest therein, but only if such person or entity confirms such ownership interest or prospective ownership interest and provided that, prior to the delivery of such Confidential Information, such persons shall have executed and delivered to the Company an agreement that is substantially similar in form and substance to this agreement.

This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without the application of conflict of laws principles. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, [Wells Fargo][LNR Partners] intends at all times to comply with the terms and provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and nothing in this letter agreement should be construed to limit or qualify any of [Wells Fargo’s][LNR Partners’] rights or obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. This letter agreement may be executed in counterparts and by facsimile/Portable Document Format (PDF); each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts together shall constitute one agreement.

This agreement shall terminate with respect to the information received by the Company one year after the Company receives such information or ceases to be a Certificateholder. Company agrees that this letter agreement supersedes and replaces and survives any click-through agreement regarding confidentiality of Confidential Information agreed to in connection with accessing the System whether agreed to in accessing the System before or after signing this letter agreement.

ASSET REVIEW PROCEDURES

In the event of any conflict between this Exhibit QQ and the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall control and govern the Asset Representation Reviewer’s responsibilities and duties with respect to the Asset Reviews.

 

Call for Review and Collection and Inventory of Review Materials

 

Step 1 Asset Representations Reviewer (“ARR”) receives the following items before beginning its review:

 

● CREFC^® Delinquent Mortgage Loan Status Report

● Notice of Asset Review Trigger (with attachments)

● Notice of Asset Review Vote Election

● Notice of Affirmative Asset Review Vote

● Asset Review Notice

● List of all Subject Loans

● Review Materials for each Subject Loan via Secure Data Room access including the Diligence File

●                     Any Unsolicited Information (if applicable)

Step 2 For each Subject Loan, ARR inventories all Review Materials to which ARR is provided access in the Secure Data Room to determine what, if any, Review Materials for such Subject Loan are missing, using the list of documents provided in the definition of “Mortgage File” of this Agreement, any comparable lists included in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and any closing checklist from the origination of such Subject Loan, to guide its review and determination.

Step 3 If ARR determines that the information made available to it in the Secure Data Room with respect to any Subject Loan is missing any documents required to complete an Asset Review of such Subject Loan, ARR prepares list of such missing documents and, within the time periods specified in Section 12.01 of this Agreement, (i) notifies the applicable Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the applicable Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) of such missing documents, and requests that the applicable Master Servicer or the applicable Special Servicer, as the case may be, deliver to the ARR such missing document(s) to the extent in its possession and (ii) in the event any missing documents are not provided by the applicable Master Servicer or the applicable Special Servicer, as the case may be, the ARR shall request such documents from the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

 

QQ-1

Analysis and Testing of Representations and Warranties

 

Step 4 For each Subject Loan for which ARR has received all Review Materials required to complete an Asset Review of such Subject Loan, ARR tests such Subject Loan for compliance with each representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Subject Loan as follows:

 

■ ARR reviews each representation and warranty and each item included in the Review Materials applicable or related to such representation or warranty to determine whether there is any evidence that such representation or warranty was not true when made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

 

■ For each representation and warranty, ARR lists

 

● all items from the Review Materials reviewed or used in its testing of such representation and warranty;

 

● whether ARR has determined that there is any evidence that such representation or warranty was not true when made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller; and

This Pooling and Servicing Agreement is dated and effective as of March 1, 2024, among GS Mortgage Securities Corporation II, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

The Depositor intends to sell commercial mortgage pass-through certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”), to be issued hereunder in multiple classes (each, a “Class”), which in the aggregate, will evidence the entire ownership interest in the Trust to be created hereunder, the primary assets of which will be a pool of commercial mortgage loans. As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator shall elect or shall cause an election to be made to treat designated portions of the Trust for federal income tax purposes as two (2) separate real estate mortgage investment conduits (the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC”, and each a “Trust REMIC” as described herein).

The Depositor intends (i) to sell the Certificates (other than the Class RR Certificates) to the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers, (ii) to cause $15,244,434 initial Certificate Balance of the Class RR Certificates to be owned on the Closing Date by DBNY and (iii) the cause $10,589,989 initial Certificate Balance of the Class RR Certificates to be owned on the Closing Date by CREFI.

LOWER-TIER REMIC

The Lower-Tier REMIC will hold the Mortgage Loans and will issue the Class LA1, Class LA3, Class LAS, Class LB, Class LC, Class LD, Class LE, Class LF, Class LGRR, Class LJRR and Class LRR Uncertificated Interests (the “Lower-Tier Regular Interests”), which will evidence the “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC created hereunder. The Lower-Tier REMIC will also issue the uncertificated Class LR Interest, which is the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions and is represented by the Class R Certificates.

-73-  

 

such Mortgaged Properties, (b) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) future expenses, (c) to estimate and consider (consistent with the applicable Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) the timing of recoveries, and (d) to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advances which, at the time of such consideration, the recovery of which are being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee, in light of the fact that related proceeds are a source of recovery not only for the Advance under consideration but also a potential source of recovery for such delayed or deferred Advance. In addition, any Person, in considering whether a P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, will be entitled to give due regard to the existence of any outstanding Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount with respect to other Mortgage Loans by the Master Servicer or the Trustee because there is insufficient principal available for such Mortgage Loan which, at the time of such consideration, the reimbursement of which is being deferred or delayed, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan are a source of reimbursement not only for the P&I Advance under consideration, but also as a potential source of reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts which are or may be being deferred or delayed. In addition, any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and, consistent with the Servicing Standard, in the case of the Master Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), may obtain, promptly upon request from the Special Servicer at the expense of the Trust any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for making a recoverability determination.

The Officer’s Certificate shall set forth such determination of nonrecoverability and the considerations of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, forming the basis of such determination (which shall be accompanied by, to the extent available, income and expense statements, rent rolls, occupancy status, property inspections and any other information used by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, to make such determination and shall include any existing Appraisal of the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property). The Special Servicer’s determination that a P&I Advance is or would be nonrecoverable shall be binding on the Master Servicer and the Trustee. In the case of a cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan (if any),

-74-  

 

such recoverability determination shall take into account the cross-collateralization of the related cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan.

“Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance”: Any Property Protection Advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), Whole Loan or REO Property which, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, will not be ultimately recoverable, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, at the Reimbursement Rate, from Late Collections or any other recovery on or in respect of such Mortgage Loan, Whole Loan, REO Property. In making such recoverability determination, such Person will be entitled (a) to consider (among other things) (i) the obligations of the Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, as it may have been modified and (ii) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as-is” or then current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse change with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, (b) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) future expenses (c) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) the timing of recoveries and (d) to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advances which, at the time of such consideration, the recovery of which are being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee, in light of the fact that related proceeds are a source of recovery not only for the Advance under consideration but also a potential source of recovery for such delayed or deferred Advance. In addition, any Person, in considering whether a Property Protection Advance is a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance, will be entitled to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts with respect to other Mortgage Loans that, at the time of such consideration, the reimbursement of which is being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan are a source of recovery not only for the Property Protection Advance under consideration, but also as a potential source of recovery of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts which are or may be being deferred or delayed. In addition, any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and, consistent with the Servicing Standard, in the case of the Master Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), may obtain, promptly upon request from the Special Servicer at the expense of the Trust any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for making a recoverability determination (and, upon the reasonable request by the Trustee, Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall deliver any relevant Appraisals or market value estimates in its possession to the requesting party for such purpose). Absent bad faith, the Master Servicer’s, Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s determination as to the recoverability of any Property Protection Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders.

if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance, or any updated or changed recoverability determination, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered by either of the Special Servicer or Master Servicer to the other and to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Controlling Class Representative, (but only for so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing and only with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan) (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer), the Operating Advisor (but only in the case of the Special Servicer) and the Depositor, or by the Trustee to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer). The Special Servicer may, at its option, make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that any Property Protection Advance previously made or proposed to be made is a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance and shall deliver to the Master Servicer (and with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, to any Other Servicer, and, with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer), the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the 17g-5 Information Provider notice of such determination. Any such determination shall be binding upon, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not have any obligation to make an affirmative determination that any Property Protection Advance is or would be recoverable; however, if the Special Servicer makes any such determination, such determination shall not be binding upon the Master Servicer or the Trustee. In the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such Property Protection Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance, such decision shall remain with the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion, and not all, of any previously made or proposed Property Protection Advance is a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall each have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Property Protection Advance is a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance.

The Special Servicer shall promptly furnish any party required to make Property Protection Advances hereunder with any information in its possession regarding the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties as such party required to make Property Protection Advances may reasonably request for purposes of making recoverability determinations. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, determination that a Property Protection Advance is or would be nonrecoverable, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination that a Property Protection Advance is or would be nonrecoverable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Special Servicer requests that the Master Servicer make a Property Protection Advance, the Master Servicer may conclusively rely on such request as evidence that such Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request more frequently than once per calendar month with respect to Property Protection Advances other than emergency advances (although such request may relate to more than one Property Protection Advance). In the case of a

-76-  

 

cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan (if any), such recoverability determination shall take into account the cross-collateralization of the related cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan. The determination as to the recoverability of any property protection advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be made by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer or Non-Serviced Trustee, as the case may be, pursuant to the Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement.

Such assignment of each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is further subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement (if any) and each Co-Lender Agreement. The transfer of the Mortgage Loans and the related rights and property accomplished hereby is absolute and is intended by the parties to constitute a sale.

(b)               In connection with the Depositor’s assignment pursuant to Section 2.01(a) of this Agreement, the Depositor shall direct the Mortgage Loan Sellers (pursuant to the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) to deliver to and deposit with the Custodian (on behalf of the Trustee), on or before the Closing Date, the Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan, with copies to be delivered, together with any other documents and records that would otherwise

-119-  

 

be a part of the Servicing File, within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date, to the Master Servicer (other than with respect to the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans). None of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be liable for any failure by any Mortgage Loan Seller or the Depositor to comply with the document delivery requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01(b). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to letters of credit (exclusive of those relating to Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans), the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall hold the original (or copy, if such original has been submitted by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller to the issuing bank to effect an assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer)) for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, that may be required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Mortgage Loan documents) and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied any delivery requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Section 2.01(b) by delivering with respect to any letter(s) of credit a copy thereof to the Custodian together with an Officer’s Certificate of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller certifying that such document has been delivered to the Master Servicer or an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that it holds the letter(s) of credit pursuant to this Section 2.01(b). If a letter of credit referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Mortgage Loan documents, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the related Mortgage Loan Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Master Servicer within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date. The applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder.

After the Depositor’s transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 2.01(b), the Depositor shall not take any action inconsistent with the Trust’s ownership of the Mortgage Loans.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by a Mortgaged Property that is subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the related Mortgage Loan Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the applicable

-120-  

 

Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee shall, within forty-five (45) days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor for the transfer or assignment of such comfort letter or issuance of a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), with a copy of such notice or request to the Custodian (who shall include such document in the related Mortgage File), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) and the Master Servicer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, deliver the original of such replacement comfort letter, new document or acknowledgement, as applicable, to the Custodian for inclusion in the Mortgage File.

(c)               The Depositor hereby represents and warrants that each Mortgage Loan Seller has covenanted in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that, except with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, it shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense, in the appropriate public office for real property records or UCC Financing Statements, as appropriate (or, with respect to any assignments that the Custodian has agreed to record or file pursuant to this Agreement, deliver to the Custodian for such purpose and cause the Custodian to record and file), each related Assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases, in favor of the Trustee, referred to in clause (4) of the definition of “Mortgage File” and each related UCC-3 assignment referred to in clause (14) of the definition of “Mortgage File”.

The Depositor hereby represents and warrants that each Mortgage Loan Seller has covenanted in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement as to each Mortgage Loan (exclusive of the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans), that if it cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (14) of the definition of “Mortgage File” solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, a copy of the original certified by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording, shall be forwarded to the Custodian. Each assignment referred to in the prior paragraph that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in the previous paragraph shall reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee, in which case such Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original Assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall obtain therefrom and deliver to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof.

-121-  

 

If the Custodian has received written notice that any of the aforementioned assignments is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Custodian shall forward the same to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) and such Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or to cure such defect, as the case may be, and such Mortgage Loan Seller shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file, or with respect to any assignments the Custodian has agreed to file as described above, to deliver to the Custodian the substitute or corrected document. The Custodian shall upon receipt from the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller cause the same to be duly recorded or filed, as appropriate.

(d)               In connection with the Depositor’s assignment pursuant to Section 2.01(a) of this Agreement, the Depositor shall direct each Mortgage Loan Seller (pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) to deliver to and deposit (or cause to be delivered and deposited) with the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date, (i) a copy of the Mortgage File, (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or the related Serviced Companion Loans, (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any asset summaries related to the Mortgage Loans that were delivered to the Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Certificates) and the Serviced Companion Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Mortgage Loans and the Serviced Companion Loans or holders of interests therein and (C) are in the possession or under the control of each Mortgage Loan Seller, and (iii) all unapplied Escrow Payments and reserve funds in the possession or under the control of each Mortgage Loan Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans, together with a statement indicating which Escrow Payments and reserve funds are allocable to each Mortgage Loan or to the Serviced Companion Loans, provided that neither Mortgage Loan Seller shall be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations. The Master Servicer shall hold all such documents, records and funds on behalf of the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and, insofar as they also relate to the Serviced Companion Loan, on behalf of and for the benefit of the applicable Companion Holder).

(e)               In connection with the Depositor’s assignment pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Depositor shall deliver, and hereby represents and warrants that it has delivered, to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, on or before the Closing Date, a fully executed original counterpart of each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, as in full force and effect, without amendment or modification, on the Closing Date.

(f)                The Custodian with respect to the Serviced Whole Loans shall also hold the related Mortgage File for the use and benefit of the Companion Holders.

(g)               The parties to this Agreement acknowledge and agree, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Serviced Whole Loan and each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, that the Trust assumes the obligations and rights of the holder of such Mortgage Loan under the

Promptly upon completion of such delivery of the Diligence Files (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date), the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall provide to each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Directing Holder, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor, to the addresses provided herein, an officer’s certificate signed by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller certifying that the electronic copies of the documents uploaded to the Intralinks Site constitute all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” (the “Diligence File Certification”) and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor.

With respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the Custodian shall also hold the portion of such Mortgage File that relates to the Companion Loan in such Serviced Whole Loan in trust for the use and benefit of the related Companion Holder. In connection with the foregoing, the Custodian hereby certifies to each of the other parties hereto, each Mortgage Loan Seller, each Underwriter and each Initial Purchaser that, as to each Mortgage Loan, (i) all documents specified in clause (1) of the definition of “Mortgage File” are in its possession or the possession of the Custodian on its behalf and (ii) the original Mortgage Note (or,

-124-  

 

if accompanied by a lost note affidavit, the copy of such Note) received by it or the Custodian with respect to such Mortgage Loan has been reviewed by it or by the Custodian on its behalf and (A) appears regular on its face (handwritten additions, changes or corrections shall not constitute irregularities if initialed by the Mortgagor), (B) appears to have been executed (where appropriate) and (C) purports to relate to such Mortgage Loan.

(b)               On or about the 60^th day following the Closing Date (and, if any exceptions are noted, again on or about the 90^th day following the Closing Date and monthly thereafter until the earliest of (i) the second anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) the day on which all material exceptions have been removed and (iii) the day on which a Mortgage Loan Seller has repurchased or substituted for the last affected Mortgage Loan), the Custodian shall review the documents delivered to it with respect to each Mortgage Loan, and the Custodian shall, subject to Section 2.01(c), Section 2.02(c) and Section 2.02(d) of this Agreement and the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, certify in writing (substantially in the form of Exhibit Q to this Agreement) to each of the other parties hereto, each Mortgage Loan Seller, each Underwriter and each Initial Purchaser (and upon request, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, to the related Companion Holder) that, as to each Mortgage Loan then subject to this Agreement (except as specifically identified in any exception report annexed to such certification): (i) all documents specified in clauses (1), (2), (3), (4) (other than with respect to the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans), (5), (7), (14) and (20) (for any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan) of the definition of “Mortgage File” are in its possession or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has otherwise satisfied the delivery requirements in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; (ii) the recordation/filing contemplated by Section 2.01(c) of this Agreement has been completed (based solely on receipt by the Custodian of the particular recorded/filed documents); (iii) all documents received by the Custodian with respect to such Mortgage Loan have been reviewed by the Custodian on its behalf and (A) appear regular on their face (handwritten additions, changes or corrections shall not constitute irregularities if initialed by the Mortgagor), (B) appear to have been executed (where appropriate) and (C) purport to relate to such Mortgage Loan; and (iv) based on the examinations referred to in Section 2.02(a) of this Agreement and this Section 2.02(b) and only as to the foregoing documents (together with any loan agreement that has been delivered by the related Mortgage Loan Seller), the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the items specified in clauses (iii), (v), and (vii) of the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” accurately reflects the information set forth in the Mortgage File. With respect to the items listed in clauses (2) and (3) of the definition of “Mortgage File” if such recorded document is not in the Custodian’s possession because it has not been returned from the applicable recording office, then the Custodian’s certification prepared pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) should indicate the absence of such recorded document. With respect to the items listed in clause (4) of the definition of “Mortgage File” if the recorded original of such document is not in the Custodian’s possession because it has not been returned from the applicable recording office, then the Custodian’s certification prepared pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) should indicate the absence of such recorded original. If the Custodian’s obligation to deliver the certifications contemplated in this subsection terminates because two (2) years have elapsed since the Closing Date, the Custodian shall deliver a comparable certification to any party hereto, the Companion Holder and any Underwriter and any Initial Purchaser on request.

-125-  

 

to inspect, review or examine any of the documents, instruments, certificates or other papers relating to the Mortgage Loans delivered to it to determine that the same are valid, legal, effective, genuine, binding, enforceable, sufficient or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face. Furthermore, none of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian shall have any responsibility for determining whether the text of any assignment or endorsement is in proper or recordable form, whether the requisite recording of any document is in accordance with the requirements of any applicable jurisdiction, or whether a blanket assignment is permitted in any applicable jurisdiction.

(d)               It is understood that the scope of the Custodian’s review of the Mortgage Files is limited solely to confirming that the documents specified in clauses (1), (2), (3), (4) (other than with respect to the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans), (5), (7), (14) and (20) (for any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan) of the definition of “Mortgage File” have been received, appear regular on their face and such additional information as will be necessary for delivering the certifications required by Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) of this Agreement.

-127-  

 

(b)               If the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor (solely in its capacity as operating advisor) discovers (without implying any duty of such Person to make, or to attempt to make, such a discovery) or receives notice alleging (A) that any document required to be included by (or on behalf of) the related Mortgage Loan Seller and constituting a part of a Mortgage File has not been properly executed, is missing, contains information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or does not appear to be regular on its face (each, a “Document Defect”) or (B) a breach of any representation or warranty of a Mortgage Loan Seller made pursuant to Section 6(d) of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan (a “Breach”), then such Person shall give prompt written notice thereof to the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Directing Holder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), the other parties hereto, any related Companion Holder (if applicable) and, subject to Section 13.10 of this Agreement, each of the Rating Agencies (to the extent notice has not previously been delivered to such Persons pursuant to this sentence).

The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may (but will not be obligated to) consult with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer regarding any determination of a Material Defect for a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan. If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect then the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that made such determination shall give prompt written notice thereof to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, the other parties hereto and (for so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing) the Directing Holder. Promptly upon becoming aware of any Material Defect (including through a written notice given by any party to this Agreement), the Master Servicer (if the related Mortgage Loan is a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Special Servicer (if the related Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan), as applicable, shall require the related Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of BCREI, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement), not later than ninety (90) days from the earlier of (a) the earlier of such Mortgage Loan Seller’s discovery or receipt of notice of, and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to, such Material Defect, or (b) in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, any party’s discovery of such Material Defect (such 90-day period, the “Initial Cure Period”), to (i) cure such Material Defect in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of losses and any additional Trust Fund expenses associated therewith, including the amount of any fees and reimbursable expenses of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan) (ii) Repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or REO Loan (or the Trust’s interest therein with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan) (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest

-128-  

 

thereof) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account or (iii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to the related Whole Loans, for which no substitution shall be permitted) for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date) and pay the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith, all in conformity with the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement; provided, however, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such Initial Cure Period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of BCREI, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such Initial Cure Period, then such Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of BCREI, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) shall have an additional ninety (90) days (such additional ninety (90) day period, the “Extended Cure Period”) to complete such cure or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such Repurchase or substitution (it being understood and agreed that, in connection with such Mortgage Loan Seller’s receiving such Extended Cure Period, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect was not cured within the Initial Cure Period and what actions the related Mortgage Loan Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure of such Material Defect and stating that such Mortgage Loan Seller anticipates that such Material Defect will be cured within such Extended Cure Period); and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the Initial Cure Period and any such Extended Cure Period solely due to the failure of the related Mortgage Loan Seller to have received the recorded document, then such Mortgage Loan Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase or substitution obligations in respect of such Document Defect so long as the related Mortgage Loan Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator every thirty (30) days thereafter that the Document Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the related Mortgage Loan Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date. If the affected Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased, the Master Servicer shall designate the Collection Account as the account to which funds in the amount of the Purchase Price are to be wired. If the affected Mortgage Loan is to be substituted for, the Master Servicer shall designate the Collection Account as the account to which funds in the amount of the Substitution Shortfall Amount are to be wired. Any such Repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. Periodic Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Periodic Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced, and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust, after the related Cut-off Date through, but not including, the related date of Repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Periodic Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Periodic Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on

-129-  

 

behalf of the Trust after the related date of Repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and are to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller effecting the related Repurchase or substitution within two (2) Business Days following receipt of properly identified and available funds constituting such Periodic Payment. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, theatre or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver to the Custodian copies of the UCC Financing Statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

If a Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of BCREI, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement), in connection with a Material Defect (or an allegation of a Material Defect) pertaining to a Mortgage Loan, makes a cash payment pursuant to an agreement or a settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust (and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan or a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, with the consent of the Directing Holder if no Control Termination Event is continuing) (each such payment, a “Loss of Value Payment”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such Loss of Value Payment shall be deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to be applied in accordance with Section 3.05(f) of this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall determine the amount of any applicable Loss of Value Payment (with the consent of the Directing Holder in respect of any Mortgage Loan that is not an applicable Excluded Loan and for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing) and, in the case of any Repurchase Request with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans prior to the occurrence of a Resolution Failure, shall communicate such amount to the Master Servicer for its enforcement action with the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller. In connection with any such determination with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide the Special Servicer but in any event within the time frame and in the manner provided in Section 3.19, with the Servicing File and all information, documents and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan, either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise reasonably available to the Master Servicer without undue burden or expense, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to the extent set forth in Section 3.19 in order to permit the Special Servicer to calculate the Loss of Value Payment as set forth in this Section 2.03(b). The Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees and reimbursable expenses of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof). If such Loss of Value Payment is made, the Loss of Value Payment shall serve as the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders and the Trustee on their behalf regarding any such Material Defect in lieu of any obligation of a Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of BCREI, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) to otherwise cure such Material Defect or repurchase or substitute for the affected Mortgage Loan based on such Material Defect under any circumstances. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between each Mortgage Loan Seller and the Master Servicer

-130-  

 

(in the case of Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) or the Special Servicer (in the case of Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) on behalf of the Trust, provided that (i) prior to any such agreement or settlement nothing in this paragraph shall preclude a Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and timing set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Section 2.03 (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for such Mortgage Loan), (ii) such Loss of Value Payment shall not be greater than the Purchase Price of the affected Mortgage Loan; and (iii) a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment.

The cure, repurchase and substitution obligations or the obligation to pay the Loss of Value Payment described herein will constitute the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders in connection with a Material Breach of any representation or warranty or a Material Document Defect with respect to any Mortgage Loan. None of the Depositor, the Underwriters, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or any other person will be obligated to repurchase or replace any affected Mortgage Loan or make a Loss of Value Payment in connection with a Breach of any of the representations and warranties or a Document Defect if a Mortgage Loan Seller defaults on its obligations to do so.

If the Special Servicer or the Depositor receives (i) a Repurchase Communication of a request or demand for repurchase or replacement of any Mortgage Loan alleging a Document Defect or Breach (any such request or demand, a “15Ga-1 Repurchase Request”) or (ii) a Repurchase Communication of a withdrawal of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request of which notice has been previously received or given and which withdrawal is by the Person making such Repurchase Request (a “Repurchase Request Withdrawal”), such party shall give written notice of such Repurchase Request Withdrawal to the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the other parties hereto, the Directing Holder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event), any Companion Holder (if applicable) and, subject to Section 13.10 of this Agreement, each of the Rating Agencies (to the extent notice has not previously been delivered to such Persons pursuant to this sentence). If the Special Servicer receives a Repurchase Communication that any Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) that was subject of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request has been repurchased or replaced (a “Repurchase”), or that such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request has been rejected (a “Repurchase Request Rejection”), then the Special Servicer shall (in accordance with the following paragraph) give written notice of such Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection to the Depositor, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller unless it is the entity that has repurchased or replaced the subject Mortgage Loan or rejected such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, and unless it is the party that notified the Special Servicer thereof, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee.

Each notice of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection required to be given by a party pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) (each, a “15Ga-1 Notice”) shall be given no later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a Repurchase Communication of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection, as applicable, and shall include (i) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the date that the Repurchase Communication regarding the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection was received, as applicable, (iii) if known, the basis for the 15Ga-1 Repurchase

-131-  

 

Request (as asserted in the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request) and (iv) in the case of 15Ga-1 Notices provided by the Special Servicer with respect to a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, a statement as to whether the Special Servicer currently plans to pursue such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request.

If the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian receives a Repurchase Communication of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, a Repurchase or a Repurchase Request Rejection, then such party shall promptly forward such Repurchase Communication of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection to the Special Servicer (with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Loan) and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Holder, and include the following statement in the related correspondence: “This is a Repurchase Communication regarding [a “15Ga-1 Repurchase Request”] [a “Repurchase Request Withdrawal”] [a “Repurchase”] [a “Repurchase Request Rejection”] under Section 2.03(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to the Benchmark 2024-V6 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6, requiring action by you as the recipient of such [15Ga-1 Repurchase Request] [Repurchase Request Withdrawal] [Repurchase] [Repurchase Request Rejection] thereunder”. Upon receipt of any Repurchase Communication of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection by the Special Servicer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the Special Servicer shall be deemed to be the recipient of such Repurchase Communication of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection, and the Special Servicer shall comply with the notice procedures set forth in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.03(b) with respect to such Repurchase Communication of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, Repurchase Request Withdrawal, Repurchase or Repurchase Request Rejection.

No Person that is required to provide a 15Ga-1 Notice pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) (a “15Ga-1 Notice Provider”) shall be required to provide any information in a 15Ga-1 Notice protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. Each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement will provide that (i) any 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) is so provided only to assist the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) by a 15Ga-1 Notice Provider in a 15Ga-1 Notice shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including with respect to any 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request that is the subject of a 15Ga-1 Notice.

On or before the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deliver to the Master Servicer a copy of each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, which the Master Servicer shall provide to each Sub-Servicer.

The Depositor shall cause each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to require the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, upon written request from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to deliver one (1) PDF and one (1) original of a power of attorney

-132-  

 

substantially in the form of Exhibit F to the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, that permits such parties to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement by the Trust Fund. Pursuant to each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the related Mortgage Loan Seller will be required to effect (at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense) the assignment and recordation of its respective Mortgage Loan documents until the assignment and recordation of all such Mortgage Loan documents has been completed.

With respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the parties to this Agreement agree that if a “material document defect” exists with respect to a Non-Serviced Companion Loan under the Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement and a Mortgage Loan Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) repurchases the related Companion Loan pursuant to the Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall also Repurchase such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” related solely to the promissory note for such Companion Loan.

(c)               Subject to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s right to cure as contemplated in this Section 2.03, and further subject to Section 2.01(b) and Section 2.01(c) of this Agreement, failure of such Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8), (18) and (19) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in accordance with this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement for any Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except a deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage or for any immediate significant servicing obligation.

(d)               In connection with any Repurchase of, or substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for, a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.03, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by such Mortgage Loan Seller evidencing such Repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File and other documents (including, without limitation, the Servicing File), and all escrows and reserve funds, pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and reconveyance of the Mortgage Loan and the security thereof to the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee and the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt (and such receipt shall be deemed to be the Master Servicer’s direction to the Trustee and the Custodian to) from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that

-133-  

 

the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. The Master Servicer shall, and is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee to, prepare, execute and deliver in its own name, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee or any of them, the endorsements and assignments contemplated by this Section 2.03(d), and such other instruments as may be necessary or appropriate to transfer title to an REO Property (including with respect to the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) in connection with the Repurchase of, or substitution for, an REO Loan and the Trustee shall execute and deliver any powers of attorney necessary to permit the Master Servicer to do so; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be held liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or any of its agents or Subcontractors. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement provides that in the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Mortgage Loan by the related Mortgage Loan Seller as contemplated by this Section 2.03, such Mortgage Loan Seller will be required to deliver to the Custodian the Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in this Agreement.

(e)               Each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement provides the sole remedies available to the Certificateholders, or the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders, respecting any Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(f)                If (i) any Crossed Underlying Loan is required to be repurchased or substituted for in the manner described in this Section 2.03 and (ii) the applicable Material Defect does not constitute a Material Defect, as to any other Crossed Underlying Loan in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Material Defect shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect or Breach as to any other Crossed Underlying Loan in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group for purposes of this paragraph, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller will be required to repurchase or substitute for such other Crossed Underlying Loan(s) in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group as provided in Section 2.03(b) unless such other Crossed Underlying Loans satisfy the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria. In the event that the remaining Crossed Underlying Loans in such Crossed Mortgage Loan Group satisfy the aforementioned criteria, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller may elect either to repurchase or substitute for only the affected Crossed Underlying Loan(s) as to which the related Material Defect exists or to repurchase or substitute for all of the Crossed Underlying Loans in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing the Crossed Underlying Loans shall be allocated among the related Crossed Underlying Loans in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. Except as provided in this Section 2.03(f) and Section 2.03(g), all other terms of the related Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect without any modification thereof.

(g)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the related Mortgage provides for the partial release of one or more of the Crossed Underlying Loans, the Depositor may cause the related Mortgage Loan Seller to repurchase only that Crossed Underlying Loan required to be repurchased pursuant to this Section 2.03, pursuant to the partial release provisions of the related

-134-  

 

Mortgage; provided, however, that (i) the remaining related Crossed Underlying Loan(s) fully comply with the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage, this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria, (ii) in connection with such partial release, the related Mortgage Loan Seller obtains an Opinion of Counsel (at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense) to the effect that the contemplated action will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event and (iii) in connection with such partial release, the related Mortgage Loan Seller delivers or causes to be delivered to the Custodian original modifications to the Mortgage prepared and executed in connection with such partial release.

(h)               With respect to any Crossed Underlying Loan, to the extent that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is required to repurchase or substitute for such Crossed Underlying Loan in the manner prescribed in Section 2.03(b) while the Trustee continues to hold any other Crossed Underlying Loans in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Master Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, as assignee of the Depositor, shall, as set forth in the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each will be permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective related Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loans still held by the Trustee, so long as such exercise does not materially impair the ability of the other party to exercise its remedies against its Primary Collateral. If the exercise of the remedies by one party would materially impair the ability of the other party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Crossed Underlying Loans held by such party, then both parties have agreed in the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to forbear from exercising such remedies until the related Mortgage Loan documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loan can be modified in a manner that complies with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to remove the threat of material impairment as a result of the exercise of remedies.

(i)                 (i) In the event an Initial Requesting Certificateholder delivers a written request to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Operating Advisor (solely in its capacity as the Operating Advisor) or the Custodian that a Mortgage Loan be repurchased by a Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of BCREI, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) alleging the existence of a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (an “Owner Repurchase Request”), such party shall promptly forward that Owner Repurchase Request to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Enforcing Servicer, shall then promptly forward that Owner Repurchase Request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller and each other party to this Agreement and take the actions required under Section 2.03(j). Subject to Section 2.03(j), the Enforcing Servicer shall be the Enforcing Party with respect to the Owner Repurchase Request. If a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to the Owner Repurchase Request, the provisions described in Section 2.03(j)(i) shall apply.

(ii)                                In the event that the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor (solely in its capacity as Operating Advisor) has knowledge of a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, that party shall deliver prompt written notice of such Material Defect to each other

-135-  

 

party to this Agreement, identifying the applicable Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “PSA Party Repurchase Request”, and each of an Owner Repurchase Request or a PSA Party Repurchase Request, a “Repurchase Request”), and the Enforcing Servicer shall promptly forward such PSA Party Repurchase Request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Subject to Section 2.03(j), the Enforcing Servicer shall be the Enforcing Party with respect to the PSA Party Repurchase Request. If a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to the PSA Party Repurchase Request, the provisions described below under Section 2.03(j) shall apply.

(iii)                              In the event the Repurchase Request is not Resolved within one hundred eighty (180) days after the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller receives the Repurchase Request (a “Resolution Failure”), the provisions described in Section 2.03(j) shall apply. Receipt of the Repurchase Request shall be deemed to occur two (2) Business Days after the Repurchase Request is sent to the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

(iv)                            Within two (2) Business Days after a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a Repurchase Request made by any Person other than the Special Servicer, the Controlling Class Representative or a Controlling Class Certificateholder relating to a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall send a written notice (a “Master Servicer Proposed Course of Action Notice”) to the Special Servicer, indicating the Master Servicer’s analysis and recommended course of action with respect to such Repurchase Request. The Master Servicer shall also deliver to the Special Servicer the Servicing File and all information, documents and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan, either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise reasonably available to the Master Servicer without undue burden or expense, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its duties hereunder to the extent set forth in this Agreement for such Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan. Upon receipt of such Master Servicer Proposed Course of Action Notice and such Servicing File, information, documents and records, the Special Servicer shall become the Enforcing Servicer with respect to such Repurchase Request.

(j)                 (i) After a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a Repurchase Request regarding a Mortgage Loan (whether the Repurchase Request was initiated by an Initial Requesting Certificateholder or by a party to this Agreement), the Enforcing Servicer shall send a notice (a “Proposed Course of Action Notice”) to the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, at the address specified in the Initial Requesting Certificateholder’s Repurchase Request, and to the Certificate Administrator. The Certificate Administrator shall make the Proposed Course of Action Notice available to all other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners, by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, indicating the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request (the “Proposed Course of Action”). If the Master Servicer is the Enforcing Servicer, the Master Servicer may (but shall not be obligated to) consult with the Special Servicer and (for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred) the Directing Holder regarding any Proposed Course of Action. The Proposed Course of Action Notice shall include (a) a request to the Certificateholders to indicate their agreement with or dissent from such Proposed Course of Action by clearly marking “agree” or “disagree” to

-136-  

 

the Proposed Course of Action on such notice within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice and a disclaimer that responses received after such thirty (30) day period will not be taken into consideration, (b) a statement that if any Certificateholder disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action, the Enforcing Servicer (either as the Enforcing Party or as the Enforcing Servicer in circumstances where a Certificateholder is acting as the Enforcing Party) shall be compelled to follow (either as the Enforcing Party or as the Enforcing Servicer in circumstances where a Certificateholder is acting as the Enforcing Party) the course of action agreed to and/or proposed by the majority, by Certificate Balance, of the responding Certificateholders that involves referring the matter to mediation or arbitration, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures described below relating to the delivery of the Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notices and Final Dispute Resolution Election Notices, (c) a statement that responding Certificateholders will be required to certify their holdings in connection with such response, (d) a statement that only responses clearly marked “agree” or “disagree” with such Proposed Course of Action will be taken into consideration and (e) instructions for responding Certificateholders to send their responses to the Enforcing Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. Within three (3) Business Days after the expiration of the thirty (30) day response period, the Certificate Administrator shall tabulate the responses received from the Certificateholders and share the results with the Enforcing Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall only count responses timely received that clearly indicate agreement or dissent with the related Proposed Course of Action and additional verbiage or qualifying language shall not be taken into consideration for purposes of determining whether the applicable Certificateholder agrees or disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action. The Certificate Administrator shall be under no obligation to answer any questions from Certificateholders regarding such Proposed Course of Action. For the avoidance of doubt, the Certificate Administrator’s obligations in connection with this Section 2.03(j) shall be limited solely to tabulating Certificateholder responses of “agree” or “disagree” to the Proposed Course of Action, and such obligation shall not be construed to impose any enforcement obligation on the Certificate Administrator. The Enforcing Servicer may conclusively rely (without investigation) on the Certificate Administrator’s tabulation of the majority, by Certificate Balance, of the responding Certificateholders. If (a) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request does not involve pursuing further action to exercise rights against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of BCREI, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) with respect to the Repurchase Request and the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner wishes to exercise its right to refer the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration, or (b) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action is to pursue further action to exercise rights against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of BCREI, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) with respect to the Repurchase Request but the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner does not agree with the dispute resolution method selected by the Enforcing Servicer, then the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or such other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner may deliver to the Enforcing Servicer a written notice (a “Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice”) within thirty (30) days after the date the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (the “Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date”) indicating its intent to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration. In the event that (a) the Enforcing Servicer’s initial

Proposed Course of Action indicated a recommendation to undertake mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration, (b) any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice and (c) the Enforcing Servicer also received responses from other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners supporting the Enforcing Servicer’s initial Proposed Course of Action, such additional responses from other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners shall also be considered Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notices supporting such Proposed Course of Action for purposes of determining the course of action approved by the majority, by Certificate Balance, of Certificateholders.

(ii)                                 If neither the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, nor any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice prior to the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date, no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have the right to refer the Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration, and the Enforcing Servicer, as the Enforcing Party, shall be the sole party obligated and entitled to determine a course of action, including but not limited to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller, subject to any consent or consultation rights of the Directing Holder pursuant to Section 6.08.

(iii)                             Promptly and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice from (a) the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or (b) any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner (other than the Holder of the Class RR Certificates) (each of clauses (a) or (b), a “Requesting Certificateholder”), the Enforcing Servicer shall consult with each Requesting Certificateholder regarding such Requesting Certificateholder’s intention to elect either mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration as the dispute resolution method with respect to the Repurchase Request (the “Dispute Resolution Consultation”) so that such Requesting Certificateholder may consider the views of the Enforcing Servicer as to the claims underlying the Repurchase Request and possible dispute resolution methods, such discussions to occur and be completed no later than ten (10) Business Days following the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date. The Enforcing Servicer shall be entitled to establish procedures the Enforcing Servicer deems in good faith to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard relating to the timing and extent of such consultations. No later than five (5) Business Days after completion of the Dispute Resolution Consultation, a Requesting Certificateholder may provide a final notice to the Enforcing Servicer indicating its decision to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation or arbitration (“Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice”).

(iv)                            If, following the Dispute Resolution Consultation, no Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then the Enforcing Servicer will continue to act as the Enforcing Party and remain obligated under this Agreement to determine a course of action, including but not limited to, enforcing the rights of the Trust with respect to the Repurchase Request and no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration.

-138-  

 

(v)                               If a Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then such Requesting Certificateholder shall become the Enforcing Party and must promptly submit the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration. If there is more than one Requesting Certificateholder that timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice, then such Requesting Certificateholders will collectively become the Enforcing Party, and the Holder or Holders of a majority of the Voting Rights among such Requesting Certificateholders will be entitled to make all decisions relating to such mediation or arbitration. If, however, no Requesting Certificateholder commences arbitration or mediation pursuant to the terms of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of its Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then (i) the rights of a Requesting Certificateholder to act as the Enforcing Party shall terminate and no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration, (ii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice indicated that the Enforcing Servicer shall take no further action with respect to the Repurchase Request, then the related Material Defect shall be deemed waived for all purposes under this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that such Material Defect shall not be deemed waived with respect a Requesting Certificateholder, any other Certificateholder, Certificate Owner or the Enforcing Servicer to the extent there is a material change in the facts and circumstances known to such party at the time when the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (iii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice had indicated a course of action other than the course of action under clause (ii), then the Enforcing Servicer shall again become the Enforcing Party and, as such, shall be the sole party obligated and entitled to determine a course of action including, but not limited to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

(vi)                           Notwithstanding the foregoing, the dispute resolution provisions described above under this Section 2.03(j) will not apply, and the Enforcing Servicer shall remain the Enforcing Party, if the Enforcing Servicer has commenced litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request, or determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that it is in the best interest of Certificateholders to commence litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request to avoid the running of any applicable statute of limitations.

(vii)                          In the event a Requesting Certificateholder becomes the Enforcing Party, the Enforcing Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, shall remain a party to any proceedings against the related Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of BCREI, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement); provided that the degree and extent to which the Enforcing Servicer actively prepares for and participates in such proceeding shall be determined by such Enforcing Servicer in consultation with the Directing Holder, provided that no Consultation Termination Event is continuing and an applicable Excluded Loan is not involved, and in accordance with the Servicing Standard. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Depositor, a Mortgage Loan Seller (with respect to the subject Mortgage Loan) or any of their respective Affiliates (except for any Holders of the Controlling Class) shall be entitled to be an Initial Requesting Certificateholder or a Requesting Certificateholder, to act as a Certificateholder for purposes of delivering any Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice or Final Dispute Resolution Election

-139-  

 

Notice or otherwise to vote Certificates owned by it or such Affiliate(s) with respect to the course of action proposed or undertaken pursuant to the procedures described in Section 2.03(i) and Section 2.03(j).

(k)               If the Enforcing Party selects mediation (including nonbinding arbitration), the following provisions shall apply:

(i)                                   The mediation shall be administered by a nationally recognized mediation services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller (such provider, the “Mediation Services Provider”) in accordance with published mediation procedures promulgated by the Mediation Services Provider.

(ii)                                The mediator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least 15 years of experience in commercial litigation, and either, commercial real estate finance or commercial mortgage-backed securitization matters or other complex commercial transactions and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Mediation Services Provider. Upon being supplied a list of at least ten potential mediators by the Mediation Services Provider each party will have the right to exercise two (2) peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential mediators in order of preference. The Mediation Services Provider shall select the mediator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii)                             The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct an organizational conference to begin the mediation within ten (10) Business Days of the selection of the mediator and to conclude the mediation within sixty (60) days thereafter.

(iv)                            The expenses of any mediation shall be allocated among the parties to the mediation including, if applicable, between the Enforcing Party and the Enforcing Servicer, as mutually agreed by the parties as part of the mediation.

(l)                 If the Enforcing Party selects third-party arbitration, the following provisions will apply:

(i)                                    The arbitration shall be administered by a nationally recognized arbitration services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller (such provider, the “Arbitration Services Provider”) in accordance with published arbitration procedures promulgated by the Arbitration Services Provider.

(ii)                                The arbitrator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in commercial litigation, and either commercial real estate finance or commercial mortgage-backed securitization matters or other complex commercial transactions and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Arbitration Services Provider. Upon being supplied a list of at least ten potential arbitrators by the Arbitration Services Provider each party will have the right to exercise two (2) peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential arbitrators in order of preference. The Arbitration Services Provider

-140-  

 

will select the arbitrator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii)                              Prior to accepting an appointment, the arbitrator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the hearings within the prescribed time schedule.

(iv)                            After consulting with the parties at an organizational conference held not later than ten (10) Business Days after its appointment, the arbitrator shall devise procedures and deadlines for the arbitration, to the extent not already agreed to by the parties, with the goal of expediting the proceeding and completing the arbitration within one hundred twenty (120) days. The arbitrator shall have the authority to schedule, hear, and determine any and all motions, including dispositive and discovery motions, in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for non-jury matters (the “Rules”) (including summary judgment and other prehearing and post hearing motions), and shall do so by reasoned decision on the motion of any party to the arbitration.

(v)                                Notwithstanding whatever other discovery may be available under the Rules, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, each party to the arbitration shall be presumptively limited to the following discovery in the arbitration: (A) the parties shall reasonably and in good faith voluntarily produce to all other parties all documents upon which they intend to rely and all documents they reasonably and in good faith believe to be relevant to the claims or defenses asserted by any of the parties, (B) party witness depositions (excluding Rule 30b-6 witnesses), and (C) expert witness depositions, provided that the arbitrator shall have the ability to grant the parties, or either of them, additional discovery to the extent that the arbitrator determines good cause is shown that such additional discovery is reasonable and necessary.

(vi)                             The arbitrator shall make its final determination no later than thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the hearings and submission of any post-hearing submissions. The arbitrator shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, and may not modify or change those agreements in any way or award remedies not consistent with those agreements. The arbitrator will not have the power to award punitive damages or consequential damages in any arbitration conducted by them. Interest on any monetary award shall bear interest from the date of the Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice at the Prime Rate. In its final determination, the arbitrator shall determine and award the costs of the arbitration (including the fees of the arbitrator, cost of any record or transcript of the arbitration, and administrative fees) and shall award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the parties to the arbitration as determined by the arbitrator in its reasonable discretion. The determination of the arbitrator shall be by a reasoned decision in writing and counterpart copies shall be promptly delivered to the parties. The final determination of the arbitrator shall be final and non-appealable, except for actions to confirm or vacate the determination permitted under federal or state law, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(vii)                         By selecting arbitration, the Enforcing Party is waiving its right to sue in court, including the right to a trial by jury.

-141-  

 

(viii)                      No Person may bring a putative or certified class action to arbitration.

(m)             The following provisions will apply to both mediation and third-party arbitration:

(i)                                  Any mediation or arbitration will be held in New York, New York unless another location is agreed by all parties;

(ii)                                If the dispute involves a matter that cannot effectively be remedied by the payment of damages, or if there be any dispute relating to arbitration or the arbitrators that cannot be resolved promptly by the arbitrators or the Arbitration Services Provider, then any party in such instance may during the pendency of the arbitration proceedings seek temporary equitable remedies, pending the final decision of the arbitration panel, solely by application in the Southern District if such court shall have subject matter jurisdiction, or if the Southern District has no jurisdiction, then the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York. The arbitration proceedings shall not be stayed unless so ordered by the court.

(iii)                             The details and/or existence of any Repurchase Request, any informal meetings, mediations or arbitration proceedings conducted under this Section 2.03, including all offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the parties’ attempt to informally resolve any Repurchase Request, will be confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any mediation, arbitration or litigation, or other proceeding (including any proceeding under this Section 2.03). Such information will be kept strictly confidential and will not be disclosed or shared with any third party (other than a party’s attorneys, experts, accountants and other agents and representatives, as reasonably required in connection with any resolution procedure under this Section 2.03), except as otherwise required by law, regulatory requirement or court order. If any party to a resolution procedure receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party (other than a governmental regulatory body) for such confidential information, the recipient shall promptly notify the other party to the resolution procedure and will provide the other party with a reasonable opportunity to object to the production of its confidential information.

(iv)                            In the event a Requesting Certificateholder is the Enforcing Party, the agreement with the arbitrator or mediator, as the case may be, shall be required to contain an acknowledgment that the Trust, or the Enforcing Servicer on its behalf, shall be a party to any arbitration or mediation proceedings solely for the purpose of being the beneficiary of any award in favor of the Enforcing Party; provided that the degree and extent to which the Enforcing Servicer actively prepares for and participates in such proceeding will be determined by such Enforcing Servicer in consultation with the Directing Holder, provided that no Consultation Termination Event is continuing and an applicable Excluded Loan is not involved, and in accordance with the Servicing Standard. All amounts recovered by the Enforcing Party shall be paid to the Trust, or the Enforcing Servicer on its behalf, and deposited in the Collection Account. The agreement with the arbitrator or mediator, as the case may be, will provide that in the event a Requesting Certificateholder is allocated any related costs and expenses pursuant to the terms of the arbitrator’s decision or the

-142-  

 

agreement reached in mediation, neither the Trust nor the Enforcing Servicer acting on its behalf shall be responsible for any such costs and expenses allocated to the Requesting Certificateholder.

(v)                               In the event a Requesting Certificateholder is the Enforcing Party, the Requesting Certificateholder to pay any expenses allocated to the Enforcing Party in the arbitration proceedings or any expenses that the Enforcing Party agrees to bear in the mediation proceedings.

(vi)                           The Trust (or the Trustee or the Enforcing Servicer, acting on its behalf), the Depositor or a Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted to redact any personally identifiable customer information included in any information provided for purposes of any mediation or arbitration. Each party to the proceedings shall be required to agree to keep confidential the details related to the Repurchase Request and the dispute resolution identified in connection with such procedures; provided, however, that Certificateholders and Certificate Owners shall be permitted to communicate prior to the commencement of any such proceedings to the extent provided in Section 5.06.

(vii)                         For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the exercise of any right of a Requesting Certificateholder to refer a Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration or participation in such mediation or arbitration affect in any manner the ability of the Enforcing Servicer to perform its obligations with respect to a Mortgage Loan or the exercise of any rights of a Directing Holder.

(viii)                     Any out-of-pocket expenses required to be borne by or allocated to the Enforcing Servicer in a mediation or arbitration shall be reimbursable as Trust Fund expenses.

(n)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers to repurchase with respect to a Material Defect with respect to the related Mortgage Loan shall be limited to a repurchase with respect to the Mortgage Note it sold to the Depositor in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. With respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, any cure by either of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers with respect to the Mortgage Note sold by it to the Depositor in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that also cures the Material Defect with respect to the entire related Joint Mortgage Loan shall satisfy the cure obligations of both Mortgage Loan Sellers with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan.

With respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, in the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement shall control; provided that in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, take any action or omit to take any action in accordance with the terms of any Co-Lender Agreement that would cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to violate the Servicing Standard or the REMIC Provisions.

The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall act in accordance with the Servicing Standard with respect to any action required to be taken regarding the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans pursuant to their obligations under this Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, subject to Section 3.19, the Special Servicer shall be obligated to service and administer (i) any Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced

-145-  

 

Mortgage Loans) and any related Serviced Companion Loans as to which a Special Servicing Transfer Event is continuing (each, a “Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan”) or as otherwise provided herein with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans in connection with any Special Servicer Major Decision and (ii) any REO Properties (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgaged Properties); provided that the Master Servicer shall continue to receive payments and make all calculations, and prepare, or cause to be prepared, all reports, required hereunder with respect to the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans, except for the reports specified herein as prepared by the Special Servicer, as if no Special Servicing Transfer Event had occurred and with respect to the REO Properties (and the related REO Loans) as if no REO Acquisition had occurred, and to render such services with respect to such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for herein; provided, further, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be liable for failure to comply with such duties insofar as such failure results from a failure of the Special Servicer to provide sufficient information to the Master Servicer to comply with such duties or failure by the Special Servicer to otherwise comply with its obligations hereunder. The Master Servicer, in its capacity as Master Servicer, will not have any responsibility for the performance by the Special Servicer, in its capacity as a Special Servicer, of its duties under this Agreement. The Special Servicer, in its capacity as a Special Servicer, will not have any responsibility for the performance by the Master Servicer, in its capacity as Master Servicer, of its duties under this Agreement. Each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan that becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan shall continue as such until satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 3.19(a). Without limiting the foregoing, subject to (i) the processing of any Special Servicer Major Decision by the Special Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) Section 3.19, the Master Servicer shall be obligated to service and administer any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan. The Special Servicer shall make the property inspections, use its reasonable efforts to collect the financial statements, budgets, operating statements and rent rolls and forward to the Master Servicer the reports in respect of the related Mortgaged Properties with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans in accordance with Section 3.12. After notification to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer may contact the Mortgagor of any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan if efforts by the Master Servicer to collect required financial information have been unsuccessful or any other issues remain unresolved. Such contact shall be coordinated through and with the cooperation of the Master Servicer. No provision herein contained shall be construed as an express or implied guarantee by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of the collectability or recoverability of payments on the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loan or shall be construed to impair or adversely affect any rights or benefits provided by this Agreement to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (including with respect to Servicing Fees, Special Servicing Fees or the right to be reimbursed for Advances and interest accrued thereon). Any provision in this Agreement for any Advance by the Master Servicer or the Trustee is intended solely to provide liquidity for the benefit of the Certificateholders and not as credit support or otherwise to impose on any such Person the risk of loss with respect to one or more of the Mortgage Loans, any related Serviced Companion Loans. No provision hereof shall be construed to impose liability on the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer for the reason that any recovery to the Certificateholders in respect of a Mortgage Loan at any time after a determination of present value recovery is less than the amount reflected in such determination.

(b)               Subject only to the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 6.08) and of the respective Mortgage Loans, any related

-146-  

 

Serviced Companion Loans and any related Co-Lender Agreement, if applicable, and applicable law, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall have full power and authority, acting alone or, in the case of the Master Servicer, subject to Section 3.20, through one or more Sub-Servicers, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration for which it is responsible which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, in its own name (or in the name of the Trustee and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder), is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders (and, with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder) and the Trustee or any of them, with respect to each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan, it is obligated to service under this Agreement: (i) any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by the related Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, and shall, from time to time, execute and/or deliver such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments as necessary to maintain the lien created by the related Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral; (ii) subject to Sections 3.08, 3.18 and 6.08, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to, under or with respect to any documents contained in the related Mortgage File; (iii) any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, pledge agreements and other documents in connection with a defeasance, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments; and (iv) any or all complaints or other pleadings to initiate and/or to terminate any action, suit or proceeding on behalf of the Trust (in their representative capacities (except as set forth below in this paragraph). The Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) shall provide to the Mortgagor related to such Mortgage Loans that it is servicing any reports required to be provided to them pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents. Subject to Section 3.10, the Trustee shall, no later than 30 days after the Closing Date and thereafter upon request, furnish to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer original powers of attorney in the form of Exhibit R-1 and Exhibit R-2, respectively, attached hereto (or such other form as mutually agreed to by the Trustee and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be held responsible or liable for any acts of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, or for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as the case may be, shall not, without the Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, representative capacity (unless prohibited by any requirement of the applicable jurisdiction in which any such action, suit or proceeding is brought and if so prohibited, in the manner required by such jurisdiction (provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall then provide five (5) Business Days’ written notice to the Trustee of the initiation of such action, suit or proceeding (or such shorter time period as is reasonably required in the judgment of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, made in accordance with the Servicing Standard) prior to filing such action, suit or proceeding), and shall not be required to obtain the

Trustee’s consent or indicate the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, representative capacity)) or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and that actually causes, the Trustee to be required to be registered to do business in any state.

(c)               To the extent the Master Servicer is permitted pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Co-Lender Agreement) to exercise its discretion with respect to any action which requires Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency, the Master Servicer shall require the costs of such Rating Agency Confirmation and Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation to be borne by the related Mortgagor. To the extent the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Co-Lender Agreement) require the Mortgagor to bear the costs of any Rating Agency Confirmation or Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation, the Master Servicer shall not waive the requirement that such costs and expenses be borne by the related Mortgagor. To the extent that the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Co-Lender Agreement) are silent as to who bears the costs of any Rating Agency Confirmation or Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation, the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the Mortgagor bear such costs and expenses. The Master Servicer shall not be responsible for the payment of such costs and expenses out of pocket other than as a Property Protection Advance.

(d)               The relationship of each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the Trustee under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent.

(e)               The Master Servicer shall, to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents or any related Companion Loan documents, and consistent with the Servicing Standard, permit Escrow Payments to be invested only in Permitted Investments.

(f)                Within sixty (60) days (or such shorter time period as is required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents) after the later of (i) the receipt thereof by the Master Servicer and (ii) the Closing Date, (x) the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall notify each provider of a letter of credit for each Mortgage Loan identified as having a letter of credit on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, that the Master Servicer (in care of the Trustee, as titled in Section 2.01(b)) for the benefit of the Certificateholders and any related Companion Holders shall be the beneficiary under each such letter of credit and (y) the Master Servicer shall notify each lessor under a Ground Lease for each Mortgage Loan identified as subject to a leasehold interest on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, that the Trust is the leasehold mortgagee, that any notices of default under such Ground Lease required to be delivered to the leasehold mortgagee pursuant to the terms of such Ground Lease shall be delivered to the Master Servicer and that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall service the related Mortgage Loan for the benefit of the Certificateholders. If a letter of credit is required to be drawn upon earlier than the date the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has notified the provider of such letter of credit pursuant to clause (x) of the immediately preceding sentence, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer in connection with making a draw under such letter of credit. If the Mortgage

-148-  

 

Loan documents do not require the related Mortgagor to pay any costs and expenses relating to any modifications to or assignment of the related letter of credit, then the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay such costs and expenses as and to the extent required under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. If the Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to pay any costs and expenses relating to any modifications to the related letter of credit, and such Mortgagor fails to pay such costs and expenses after the Master Servicer has exercised reasonable efforts to collect such costs and expenses from such Mortgagor, then the Master Servicer shall give the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller notice of such failure and the amount of costs and expenses, and such Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay such costs and expenses as and to the extent required under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. The costs and expenses of any modifications to Ground Leases shall be paid by the related Mortgagor. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability for the failure of any Mortgage Loan Seller to perform its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

(g)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) make an Advance with respect to any Companion Loan to the extent the related Serviced Mortgage Loan has been paid in full or is no longer included in the Trust Fund.

(h)               Servicing and administration of each Serviced Companion Loan shall continue hereunder and in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement for so long as the corresponding Serviced Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property is part of the Trust Fund or for such longer period as any amounts payable by the related Companion Holder, to or for the benefit of the Trust or any party hereto in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement remain due and owing.

(i)                 The Special Servicer agrees that upon the occurrence of a Special Servicing Transfer Event with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, that is subject to or becomes subject to a Co-Lender Agreement in the future, it shall, subject to Section 3.19, use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce, on behalf of the Trust, subject to the Servicing Standard and to the extent the Special Servicer determines such action is in the best interests of the Trust, all rights conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to any such Co-Lender Agreement. The costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with such enforcement shall be paid as a Trust Fund expense or, subject to the terms of the applicable Co-Lender Agreement, (i) with respect to any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, pro rata and pari passu, by the Trust and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, in accordance with the respective Stated Principal Balances of the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, or (ii) with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, first, by the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan and then, by the Trust.

(j)                 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, to the extent required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the servicing and administration of a Serviced Whole Loan shall continue hereunder (but not with respect to making Advances) even if the related Serviced Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund, until such time as a separate servicing agreement is entered into in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement (it being acknowledged that neither the Master Servicer nor the

-149-  

 

Special Servicer shall be obligated under a separate agreement to which it is not a party); provided that, other than pursuant to Section 6.04 (and, with respect to Section 6.04, solely with respect to claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with a legal claim or action resulting from an action or inaction taken or not taken while the related Serviced Mortgage Loan was part of the Trust Fund), no costs, expenses, losses or fees accruing with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan on and after the date the related Serviced Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund shall be payable out of the Trust Fund and the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Advance on or after the date such Serviced Mortgage Loan ceases to be part of the Trust Fund; provided, however, that if, in the case of any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan continues to be included in an Other Securitization, then for so long as a separate servicing agreement (pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement) has not been entered into, the Master Servicer shall inform the related Other Servicer of any need to make Property Protection Advances with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan within three (3) Business Days of determining that such an Advance is necessary or being notified that such an Advance is necessary, or in the case of a Property Protection Advance that needs to be made on an emergency or urgent basis, within one (1) Business Day. With respect to Property Protection Advances made by any Other Servicer as contemplated in the proviso to the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall, from collections on the related Serviced Whole Loan (but never out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties) received by the Master Servicer, reimburse the Other Servicer for such Property Protection Advances in the same manner and on the same level of priority as if such Property Protection Advances had been made by the Master Servicer hereunder.

(k)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s authority with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan are limited by and subject to the terms of the related Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement and the rights of the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer with respect thereto under the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement. The Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to enforce the rights of the Trustee (as holder of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the related Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement and Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement.

(l)                 The parties hereto acknowledge that each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the related Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement and further acknowledge that, pursuant to the related Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement, (i) the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is to be serviced and administered by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer in accordance with the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, and (ii) in the event that (A) the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund created by the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement and (B) the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust Fund, then, as set forth in the related Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement, the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall continue to be serviced in accordance with the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, until such time as a new servicing agreement has been agreed to by the parties to the related Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement in accordance with the provisions of such agreement and confirmation has been obtained from the Rating Agencies that such new servicing agreement

-150-  

 

would not result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then current ratings of any Class of Certificates then outstanding.

(m)             Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s authority with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan are limited by, and subject to, the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement. The Master Servicer (or, if a Serviced Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer) shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to obtain the benefits of the rights of the Trust (as holder of the related Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the related Co-Lender Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement, the provisions of the related Co-Lender Agreement shall control.

(n)               In connection with the securitization of any Serviced Companion Loan, while it is a Serviced Companion Loan, upon the request of (and at the expense of) the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (or its designee), each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer (if such Serviced Companion Loan is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan) and the Trustee, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Serviced Companion Noteholder in attempting to cause the related Mortgagor to provide information relating to such Whole Loan and the related notes, and that such holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, for inclusion in any disclosure document(s) relating to such Other Securitization.

(o)               To the extent required under the Mortgage Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall, on behalf of the related lender, maintain a Note register for the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, in accordance with such Mortgage Loan documents.

The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may in its discretion waive any Penalty Charge in connection with any delinquent payment on a Mortgage Loan and Companion Loan that it is obligated to service hereunder three (3) times during any period of twenty-four (24) consecutive months with respect to any Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may in its discretion waive any Penalty Charge in connection with any delinquent payment on a Mortgage Loan and Companion Loan one additional time in such 24-month period so long as with respect to any of the foregoing waivers, no Advance or additional expense of the Trust has been incurred and remains unreimbursed to the Trust with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan. Any additional waivers during such 24-month period with respect to such Mortgage Loan may be made, subject to the Servicing Standard, only after the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as

-151-  

 

applicable, has, prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, given notice of a proposed waiver to the Directing Holder and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Holder has consented to such additional waiver (provided that if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, fails to receive a response to such notice from the Directing Holder in writing within five (5) days of giving such notice, then the Directing Holder shall be deemed to have consented to such proposed waiver); provided, further, that during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may waive any Penalty Charge in accordance with the Servicing Standard without the consent of the Directing Holder; provided, further, that the Directing Holder shall have no consent rights with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan with respect to the foregoing waivers.

The Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans (other than any REO Loan succeeding a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Serviced Companion Loan, shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such items (including renewal premiums) and shall effect payment thereof from the applicable REO Account or by the Master Servicer as Property Protection Advances prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and, in any event, prior to the institution of foreclosure or similar proceedings with respect to the related Mortgaged Property for nonpayment of such items, employing for such purpose Escrow Payments (which shall be so applied by the Master Servicer at the written direction of the Special Servicer in the case of REO Loans) as allowed under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and Companion Loan. Other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall service and administer any reserve accounts (including monitoring, maintaining or changing the amounts of required escrows) in accordance with the terms of such Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, and the Servicing Standard. To the extent that a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Companion Loan, as applicable, does not require a Mortgagor to escrow for the payment of real estate taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, ground rents (if applicable) and similar items, the Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans, and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other Mortgage Loans, Companion Loan that it is responsible for servicing hereunder, shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to comply with its obligation to make payments in respect of such items at the time they first become due and, in any event, prior to the institution of foreclosure or similar proceedings with respect to the related Mortgaged Property for nonpayment of such items.

(c)               In accordance with the Servicing Standard and for each Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and each Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable,

-157-  

 

the Master Servicer shall advance all such funds as are necessary for the purpose of effecting the payment of (i) real estate taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may become a lien thereon, (ii) ground rents (if applicable) and (iii) premiums on Insurance Policies, in each instance if and to the extent Escrow Payments collected from the related Mortgagor (or related REO Revenues, if applicable) are insufficient to pay such item when due and the related Mortgagor has failed to pay such item on a timely basis, and provided, however, that the particular Advance would not, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance and provided, further, however, that with respect to the payment of taxes and assessments, the Master Servicer shall not be required to make such Advance until the later of five (5) Business Days after the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, has received confirmation that such item has not been paid or the date prior to the date after which any penalty or interest would accrue in respect of such taxes or assessments. The Special Servicer shall give the Master Servicer and the Trustee no less than five (5) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice before the date on which the Master Servicer is requested to make any Property Protection Advance with respect to a given Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Property; provided, however, that only two (2) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice shall be required in respect of Property Protection Advances required to be made on an emergency or urgent basis provided, further, that the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request (other than for Property Protection Advances required to be made on an urgent or emergency basis) more frequently than once per calendar month (although such request may relate to more than one Property Protection Advance). The Master Servicer may pay the aggregate amount of such Property Protection Advances listed on a monthly request to the Special Servicer, in which case the Special Servicer shall remit such Property Protection Advances to the ultimate payees. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Property Protection Advances; provided, that in an urgent or emergency situation requiring the making of a Property Protection Advance, the Special Servicer may make a Property Protection Advance. Within five (5) Business Days of making such a Property Protection Advance, the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer request for reimbursement for such Property Protection Advance, along with all information and documentation in the Special Servicer’s possession regarding the subject Property Protection Advance as the Master Servicer may reasonably request, and the Master Servicer shall be obligated, out of such Master Servicer’s own funds, to reimburse the Special Servicer for any unreimbursed Property Protection Advances (other than Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advances which shall be reimbursed from the Collection Account) made by the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Such reimbursement and any accompanying payment of interest shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the written request therefor pursuant to the preceding sentence by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Special Servicer. Upon the Master Servicer’s reimbursement to the Special Servicer of any Property Protection Advance and payment to the Special Servicer of interest thereon, all in accordance with this Section 3.03, the Master Servicer shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have made such Property Protection Advance at the same time as the Special Servicer actually made such Property Protection Advance, and accordingly, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such Property Protection Advance, together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, at the same time, in the same manner and to the same extent as the Master

-158-  

 

Servicer would otherwise have been entitled if it had actually made such Property Protection Advance at the time the Special Servicer did.

Any request by the Special Servicer that the Master Servicer make a Property Protection Advance shall be deemed to be a determination by the Special Servicer that such requested Property Protection Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such determination, provided that the determination shall not be binding on the Master Servicer or Trustee. On the first Business Day after the Determination Date for the related Distribution Date, the Special Servicer shall report to the Master Servicer if the Special Servicer determines any Property Protection Advance previously made by the Master Servicer with respect to a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Loan is a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such a determination, but such determination shall be binding upon the Master Servicer, and shall in no way limit the ability of the Master Servicer in the absence of such determination to make its own determination that any Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion of, and not all of, any previously made or proposed Property Protection Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Property Protection Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. All such Advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors and further as provided in Section 3.05(a). No costs incurred by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in effecting the payment of real estate taxes, assessments and, if applicable, ground rents on or in respect of the Mortgaged Properties shall, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation, the Certificate Administrator’s calculation of monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balances of the related Mortgage Loans, any related Serviced Companion Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans or related Serviced Companion Loan, so permit. If the Master Servicer fails to make any required Property Protection Advance as and when due (including any applicable cure periods), to the extent the Trustee has actual knowledge of such failure, the Trustee shall make such Property Protection Advance pursuant to Section 7.05. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Property Protection Advance shall be required hereunder if such Property Protection Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance. In addition, the Master Servicer shall consider Unliquidated Advances in respect of prior Property Protection Advances for purposes of nonrecoverability determinations. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Property Protection Advances under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.03(c), the Master Servicer shall not be required to reimburse the Special Servicer out of its own funds for, or to make at the direction of the Special Servicer, any Property Protection Advance if the Master Servicer determines in its reasonable judgment that such Property Protection Advance, although not characterized by the Special Servicer as a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance, is in fact a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance. The Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer in writing of such determination and, if applicable, such Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance shall be reimbursed to the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05(a).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.03(c), the Master Servicer may in its good faith judgment elect (but shall not be required unless directed by

-159-  

 

the Special Servicer with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Loans) to make a payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account (or any Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by a Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) (which shall be deemed first made from amounts distributable as principal and then from all other amounts comprising general collections) to pay for certain expenses set forth below notwithstanding that the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer, as applicable) has determined that a Property Protection Advance with respect to such expenditure would be a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance (unless, with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans or REO Loans, the Special Servicer has notified the Master Servicer to not make such expenditure), where making such expenditure would prevent (i) the related Mortgaged Property from being uninsured or being sold at a tax sale or (ii) any event that would cause a loss of the priority of the lien of the related Mortgage, or the loss of any security for the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan; provided that in each instance, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee) that making such expenditure is in the best interest of the Certificateholders and the Companion Holders, all as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and Companion Holders constituted a single lender (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loans). The Master Servicer or Trustee may elect to obtain reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advances from the Trust pursuant to the terms of Section 3.17(c). The parties acknowledge that pursuant to the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer is obligated to make property protection advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advances with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan (with, in each case, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon provided for under the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement) in the manner set forth in the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement and the applicable Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement.

(d)               In connection with its recovery of any Property Protection Advance out of the Collection Account (or any Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by the Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) pursuant to Section 3.05(a), the Trustee, the Special Servicer and then the Master Servicer, as the case may be and in that order, shall be entitled to receive, out of any amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of such Property Protection Advance from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Subject to Section 3.17(c), the Master Servicer shall reimburse itself, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, for any outstanding Property Protection Advance as soon as practically possible after funds available for such purpose are deposited in the Collection Account (or any Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by the Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) subject to the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s options and rights to defer recovery of such amounts as provided herein; provided, however, that such Master Servicer’s or Trustee’s options and rights to defer recovery of such amounts shall not alter the Master Servicer’s obligation to reimburse the Special Servicer for any outstanding Property Protection Advance as provided for in this sentence. To the extent amounts on deposit in the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account with respect to the related Companion Loan are insufficient for any such reimbursement, the Master Servicer shall use efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to enforce the rights of the holder of the related Mortgage Loan under the

-160-  

 

related Co-Lender Agreement to obtain any reimbursement available from the holder of the related Companion Loan.

(e)               To the extent an operations and maintenance plan is required to be established and executed pursuant to the terms of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall request from the Mortgagor written confirmation thereof within a reasonable time after the later of the Closing Date and the date as of which plan is required to be established or completed. To the extent any repairs, capital improvements, actions or remediations are required to have been taken or completed pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall request from the Mortgagor written confirmation of such actions and remediations within a reasonable time after the later of the Closing Date and the date as of which action or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed. To the extent a Mortgagor shall fail to promptly respond to any inquiry described in this Section 3.03(e), the Master Servicer shall report any such failure to the Special Servicer within a reasonable time after the date as of which actions or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed.

Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements, the Master Servicer need not deposit into the Collection Account any amount that the Master Servicer would be authorized to withdraw immediately from such account in accordance with the terms of Section 3.05 and shall be entitled to instead immediately pay such amount directly to the Person(s) entitled thereto; provided that such amounts shall be applied in accordance with the terms hereof and shall be reported as if deposited in such Collection Account and then withdrawn.

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, actual payments from Mortgagors in the nature of Escrow Payments, charges for beneficiary statements or demands, assumption fees, Modification Fees, extension fees, defeasance fees, amounts collected for Mortgagor checks returned for insufficient funds or other amounts the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer would be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection Account. If the Master Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Assumption, extension and Modification Fees actually received from Mortgagors on Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans shall be promptly delivered to the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

An amount equal to all income and gain realized from any such investment shall be paid to the Certificate Administrator as additional compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal at any time from time to time. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments shall be for the account of the Certificate Administrator which shall deposit the amount of such loss (to the extent not offset by income from other investments) in the Distribution Accounts, as the case may be, out of its own funds immediately as realized.

(e)               The Certificate Administrator shall establish (upon notice from the Special Servicer of an event occurring that generates Gain-on-Sale Proceeds) and maintain (i) the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account for the benefit of the Certificateholders (other than the Holders of the Class RR Certificates) and (ii) the VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account for the benefit of the VRR Interest Owners. Each of the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account and the VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall be maintained as an Eligible Account (or as a subaccount of an Eligible Account), separate and apart from trust funds for mortgage pass-through certificates of other series administered by the Certificate Administrator.

Upon the disposition of any REO Property, in accordance with Section 3.09 or Section 3.16, the Special Servicer will calculate the Gain-on-Sale Proceeds, if any, realized that are allocable to the Mortgage Loan, in connection with such sale and remit (i) the Non-VRR Percentage of such Gain-on-Sale Proceeds to the Master Servicer, who shall remit such funds to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account, and (ii) the VRR Percentage of such Gain-on-Sale Proceeds to the Master Servicer, who shall remit such funds to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account.

Each account that constitutes the Loss of Value Reserve Fund shall

be an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account. The Special Servicer shall, upon receipt, deposit in the Loss of Value Reserve Fund all Loss of Value Payments received by it. The Certificate Administrator shall, based upon information obtained from the CREFC^® reports delivered by the Master Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, account for the Loss of Value Reserve Fund as an outside reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h) and not an asset of any Trust REMIC. Furthermore, for all federal tax purposes, the Certificate Administrator shall (i) treat amounts paid out of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund through the Collection Account to the Certificateholders as contributed to and distributed by the Trust REMICs and (ii) treat any amounts paid out of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund through the Collection Account to a Mortgage Loan Seller as distributions by the Trust to such Mortgage Loan Seller as beneficial owner of the Loss of Value Reserve Fund.

(i)                                   to make distributions to Certificateholders holding Regular Certificates and Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class UR Interest) and the VRR Interest Owners in respect of the VRR Interest on each Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01 or Section 9.01, as applicable, subject to the third-to-last paragraph of Section 3.04(b); and

(ii)                                to clear and terminate the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account at the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.

(e)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Mortgage Loan, (i) if amounts on deposit in the Collection Account and the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account are not sufficient to pay the full amount of the Servicing Fee listed in Section 3.05(a)(ii), the Operating Advisor Fee listed in Section 3.05(a)(ii) and the Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fee listed in Section 3.05(b)(ii) and (b)(iii), then the Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fee shall be paid in full prior to the payment of any Servicing Fees payable under Section 3.05(a)(ii) and then, after payment of Servicing Fees, the Operating Advisor Fees payable under Section 3.05(a)(ii) and in the event that amounts on deposit in the Collection Account and the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account are not sufficient to pay the full amount of such Certificate Administrator/Trustee Fee, the Certificate Administrator shall be paid based on the amount of such fees and (ii) if amounts on deposit in the Collection Account are not sufficient to reimburse the full amount of Advances and interest thereon listed in Sections 3.05(a)(iii), (a)(iv), (a)(v) and (a)(vi), then reimbursements shall be paid first to the Certificate Administrator and to the Trustee, pro rata, second to the Special Servicer, third to the Master Servicer and then to the Operating Advisor.

(f)                If any Loss of Value Payments are deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund with respect to any Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced REO Property, then the Special Servicer shall promptly (provided that, (1) with respect to clause (iv) below, the Special Servicer shall have provided notice to the Master Servicer of the occurrence of such Liquidation Event and (2) with respect to clause (v) below, the Certificate Administrator shall have provided the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with five Business Days’ prior notice of such final Distribution Date), transfer such Loss of Value Payments (up to the remaining portion thereof) from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account for the following purposes:

(i)                                   to reimburse the Master Servicer or the Trustee, in accordance with Section 3.05(a) of this Agreement, for any Nonrecoverable Advance made by such party with respect to such Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced REO Property (together with any interest on such Advances);

(ii)                                to pay, in accordance with Section 3.05(a) of this Agreement, or to reimburse the Trust for the prior payment of, any expense or Liquidation Fee relating to such Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced REO Property that constitutes or, if not paid out of such Loss of Value Payments, would constitute an additional expense of the Trust;

(iii)                             to offset any portion of Realized Losses that are attributable to such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, as the case may be (as calculated without regard to the application of such Loss of Value Payments), incurred with respect to such Mortgage Loan or any related successor REO Loan;

(iv)                             following the occurrence of a Liquidation Event with respect to such Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced REO Property and any related transfers from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund with respect to the items contemplated by the immediately

-177-  

 

preceding clauses (i)-(iii) as to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced REO Loan, to cover the items contemplated by the immediately preceding clauses (i)-(iii) in respect of any other Mortgage Loan or Serviced REO Loan; and

(v)                               On the final Distribution Date after all distributions have been made as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, to each Mortgage Loan Seller, its pro rata share, based on the amount that it contributed, net of any amount contributed by such Mortgage Loan Seller that was used pursuant to clauses (i)-(iii) to offset any portion of Realized Losses that are attributable to such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, as the case may be, additional Trust Fund expenses or any Nonrecoverable Advances incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan related to such contribution.

(g)               Any Loss of Value Payments transferred to the Collection Account pursuant to clauses (f)(i)-(f)(iii) of the prior paragraph shall be treated as Liquidation Proceeds received by the Trust in respect of the related Mortgage Loan, or any successor REO Loan with respect thereto for which such Loss of Value Payments were received; and any Loss of Value Payments transferred to the Collection Account pursuant to clause (f)(iv) of the prior paragraph shall be treated as Liquidation Proceeds received by the Trust in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan for which such Loss of Value Payments are being transferred to the Collection Account to cover an item contemplated by clauses (f)(i)-(f)(iv) of the prior paragraph.

(h)               The Companion Paying Agent may, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account to make distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(k).

Section 3.06        Investment of Funds in the Collection Account, Servicing Accounts and the REO Accounts. (a) The Master Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account, or any Servicing Account (for purposes of this Section 3.06, an “Investment Account”), the Special Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the applicable REO Account or Loss of Value Reserve Fund (also for purposes of this Section 3.06, an “Investment Account”) to invest or if it is such depository institution, may itself invest, the funds held therein, only in one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the next succeeding date on which funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if a Person other than the depository institution maintaining such account is the obligor thereon and (ii) no later than the date on which funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the depository institution maintaining such account is the obligor thereon. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any funds held in an Investment Account shall be held in the name of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the Trustee (in its capacity as such) for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the applicable REO Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) on behalf of the Trustee, shall maintain continuous physical possession of any Permitted Investment of amounts in the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account, the Servicing Accounts, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or such REO

-178-  

 

Account, as applicable, that is either (i) a “certificated security,” as such term is defined in the UCC (such that the Trustee shall have control pursuant to Section 8-106 of the UCC) or (ii) other property in which a secured party may perfect its security interest by physical possession under the UCC or any other applicable law. In the case of any Permitted Investment held in the form of a “security entitlement” (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall take or cause to be taken such action as the Trustee deems reasonably necessary to cause the Trustee to have control over such security entitlement. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer) or the Special Servicer (in the case of the applicable REO Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) shall:

(i)                                  consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) all amounts then payable thereunder and (b) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and

(ii)                              demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment Account.

(b)               Interest and investment income realized on funds deposited in the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the Master Servicer Remittance Date related to the current Distribution Date, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Master Servicer to the extent (with respect to Servicing Accounts) not required to be paid to the related Mortgagor and shall be subject to its withdrawal, or withdrawal at its direction, in accordance with Section 3.03 or Section 3.05(a), as the case may be. Interest and investment income realized on funds deposited in the applicable REO Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer, to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for each period from and including any Distribution Date to and including the immediately succeeding Master Servicer Remittance Date, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Special Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.14(c). In the event that any loss shall be incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment (as to which the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, would have been entitled to any Net Investment Earnings hereunder) directed to be made by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and on deposit in any of the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account, the Servicing Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or the applicable REO Account, the Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the applicable REO Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) shall deposit therein, no later than the Master Servicer Remittance Date, without right of reimbursement, the amount of Net Investment Loss, if any,

-179-  

 

with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the Master Servicer Remittance Date related to the current Distribution Date; provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to deposit any loss on an investment of funds in an Investment Account if such loss is incurred solely as a result of the insolvency of the federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company that holds such Investment Account, so long as such depository institution or trust company satisfied the qualifications set forth in the definition of Eligible Account at the time such investment was made (and, with respect to the Master Servicer, such federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company is not an Affiliate of the Master Servicer unless such depository institution or trust company satisfied the qualification set forth in the definition of Eligible Account both (x) at the time the investment was made and (y) thirty (30) days prior to such insolvency).

(c)               Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Master Servicer may and, upon the request of Certificateholders representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights shall, take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

Section 3.07        Maintenance of Insurance Policies; Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. (a) The Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) shall use its efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to maintain (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Properties) shall maintain, to the extent required by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents, all insurance coverage as is required under the related Mortgage Loan documents except to the extent that the failure of the related Mortgagor to do so is an Acceptable Insurance Default (and except as provided in the next sentence with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable). If the Mortgagor does not so maintain such insurance coverage, subject to its recoverability determination with respect to any required Property Protection Advance, the Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) shall maintain all insurance coverage as is required under the related Mortgage, but only in the event the Trustee has an insurable interest therein and such insurance is available to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and, if available, can be obtained at commercially reasonable rates, as determined ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan, any determination that such insurance coverage is not available or not available at commercially reasonable rates to be made with the consent of the Directing Holder) by the Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) except to the extent that the failure of the related Mortgagor to do so is an Acceptable Insurance Default as determined by the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans); provided, however, that if any Mortgage permits the holder thereof to dictate to the Mortgagor the insurance coverage to be maintained on such Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer or, with respect to REO

-180-  

 

Property, the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall impose or maintain, as applicable, such insurance requirements as are consistent with the Servicing Standard taking into account the insurance in place at the closing of the Mortgage Loan, provided that, with respect to the immediately preceding proviso, the Master Servicer will be obligated to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to maintain (or to itself maintain) insurance against property damage resulting from terrorist or similar acts unless the Mortgagor’s failure is an Acceptable Insurance Default as determined by the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) (i) with (in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan and unless a Control Termination Event is continuing) the consent of the Directing Holder and (ii) (other than an applicable Excluded Loan) after consultation by the Special Servicer with the Risk Retention Consultation Parties pursuant to Section 6.08 and only in the event the Trustee has an insurable interest therein and such insurance is available to the Master Servicer and, if available, can be obtained at commercially reasonable rates. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants (at the applicable servicer’s expense) in determining whether any insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates. Subject to Section 3.15(a) and the costs of such insurance being reimbursed or paid to the Special Servicer as provided in the third-to-last sentence of this paragraph, the Special Servicer shall maintain for each REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) no less insurance coverage than was previously required of the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents unless the Special Servicer determines ((i) unless a Control Termination Event is continuing and after consultation by the Special Servicer with the Risk Retention Consultation Parties pursuant to Section 6.08 and (ii) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan, with the consent of the Directing Holder) that such insurance is not available at commercially reasonable rates or that the Trustee does not have an insurable interest, in which case the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination. All Insurance Policies maintained by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall (i) contain a “standard” mortgagee clause, with loss payable to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), including any related Serviced Companion Loan, other than REO Properties) or to the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO Properties), (ii) be in the name of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO Properties), (iii) include coverage in an amount not less than the lesser of (x) the full replacement cost of the improvements securing the Mortgaged Property or REO Property, as applicable, and (y) the outstanding principal balance owing on the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as applicable, and in any event, the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions, (iv) include a replacement cost endorsement providing no deduction for depreciation (unless such endorsement is not permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents), (v) be noncancelable without thirty (30) days prior written notice to the insured party (except in the case of nonpayment, in which case such policy shall not be cancelled without ten (10) days prior notice) and (vi) subject to the first proviso in the second sentence of this Section 3.07(a), be issued by a Qualified Insurer authorized under applicable law to issue such Insurance Policies. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under any such Insurance Policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property or amounts to be released to the related Mortgagor, in each case in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the provisions of the related Mortgage Loan documents) shall be deposited in the Collection

-181-  

 

Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05(a). Any costs incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such Insurance Policies in respect of Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) (other than REO Properties and other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (i) if the Mortgagor defaults on its obligation to do so, shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance (so long as such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance and if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance then such cost shall instead be paid out of the Collection Account) and will be charged to the related Mortgagor and (ii) shall not, for purposes of calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion Loan (if any), notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan so permit. Any cost incurred by a the Special Servicer in maintaining any such Insurance Policies with respect to REO Properties shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c) or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, advanced by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance (so long as such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance and if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance then such cost shall instead be paid out of the Collection Account). The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07 shall apply to any Serviced Whole Loan as if it were a single “Mortgage Loan”. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Master Servicer will not be required to maintain, and will not be in default for failing to obtain, any earthquake or environmental insurance on any Mortgaged Property unless such insurance was required at the time of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and is currently available at commercially reasonable rates.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that either (x) require the Mortgagor to maintain “all risk” property insurance (and do not expressly permit an exclusion for terrorism) or (y) contain provisions generally requiring the applicable Mortgagor to maintain insurance in types and against such risks as the holder of such Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) reasonably requires from time to time in order to protect its interests, the Master Servicer shall, consistent with the Servicing Standard, (A) monitor in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether the Insurance Policies for the related Mortgaged Property contain Additional Exclusions, (B) request the Mortgagor to either purchase insurance against the risks specified in the Additional Exclusions or provide an explanation as to its reasons for failing to purchase such insurance and (C) notify the Special Servicer if it has knowledge that any Insurance Policy contains Additional Exclusions or if it has knowledge (such knowledge to be based upon the Master Servicer’s compliance with the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B) above) that any Mortgagor fails to purchase the insurance requested to be purchased by the Master Servicer pursuant to clause (B) above. If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such failure is not an Acceptable Insurance Default, the Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause such insurance to be maintained following such determination (if made by the Master Servicer) or following notice of such determination (if made by the Special Servicer). The Special Servicer (at the expense of the Trust) shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants in making such determinations. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants (at the expense of such Master Servicer) in determining whether Additional Exclusions exist. Furthermore, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly deliver such conclusions in writing to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website for those Mortgage Loans that (i) have one of the ten (10) highest outstanding

-182-  

 

Stated Principal Balances of all of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust or (ii) comprise more than 5% of the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust. During the period that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is evaluating the availability of such insurance or waiting for a response from the Directing Holder or to consult with the Risk Retention Consultation Parties pursuant to Section 6.08, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be liable for any loss related to its failure to require the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance and will not be in default of its obligations as a result of such failure unless the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is required to take any immediate action pursuant to the Servicing Standard or other servicing requirements of this Agreement and the Master Servicer will not itself maintain such insurance or cause such insurance to be maintained.

(b)               (i) If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer insuring against fire and hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, but excluding any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), as the case may be, required to be serviced and administered hereunder, then, to the extent such Insurance Policy provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause fire and hazard insurance to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties or REO Properties. Such Insurance Policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, if there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a fire and hazard Insurance Policy complying with the requirements of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such Insurance Policy, promptly deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount of such loss or losses that would have been covered under the individual policy but are not covered under the blanket Insurance Policy because of such deductible clause to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan), or in the absence of such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation that is consistent with the Servicing Standard. In connection with its activities as administrator and Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans or any Serviced Companion Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee, the Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy. The Special Servicer, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, may maintain, earthquake insurance on REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), provided coverage is available at commercially reasonable rates, the cost of which shall be a Property Protection Advance.

(ii)                                If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by a master single interest or force-placed Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer naming the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee as the loss payee, then to the extent such Insurance Policy provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause such insurance to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties and REO Properties. In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by such master single interest or

-183-  

 

force-placed Insurance Policy, the incremental costs of such insurance applicable to such Mortgaged Property or REO Property (i.e., other than any minimum or standby premium payable for such policy whether or not any Mortgaged Property or REO Property is covered thereby) shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance. Such master single interest or force-placed policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy otherwise complying with the provisions of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy had it been maintained, deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the master single or force-placed interest policy because of such deductible clause, to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan, including any related Serviced Companion Loan, or, in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation that is consistent with the Servicing Standard.

(c)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer covering the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, officers and employees acting on behalf of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer in connection with its activities under this Agreement. Such amount of coverage shall be in such form and amount as are consistent with the Servicing Standard. Coverage of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under a policy or bond obtained by an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and providing the coverage required by this Section 3.07(c) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.07(c). The Special Servicer and the Master Servicer shall promptly report in writing to the Trustee any material changes that may occur in their respective fidelity bonds, if any, and/or their respective errors and omissions insurance policies, as the case may be, and will furnish to the Trustee copies of all binders and policies or certificates evidencing that such bonds, if any, and insurance policies are in full force and effect.

(d)               At the time the Master Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that any Mortgaged Property (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) is in a federally designated special flood hazard area (and such flood insurance has been made available), the Master Servicer will use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor (in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the Mortgage Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan documents) to maintain, and, if the related Mortgagor shall default in its obligation to so maintain, shall itself maintain to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to the extent the Trustee, as mortgagee, has an insurable interest therein), flood insurance in respect thereof, but only to the extent the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or related Serviced Companion Loan permits the mortgagee to require such coverage and the maintenance of such coverage is consistent with the Servicing Standard. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan (and any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable), and (ii) the maximum amount of insurance that is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, plus such additional excess flood coverage with respect to the Mortgaged Property,

-184-  

 

if any, in an amount consistent with the Servicing Standard. If the cost of any insurance described above is not borne by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall promptly make a Property Protection Advance for such costs.

(e)               During all such times as any REO Property (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) shall be located in a federally designated special flood hazard area, the Special Servicer will cause to be maintained, to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Special Servicer (with the consent of the Directing Holder (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than in respect of any applicable Excluded Loan) in accordance with the Servicing Standard)), a flood Insurance Policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration in an amount representing coverage not less than the maximum amount of insurance that is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended. The cost of any such flood insurance with respect to an REO Property shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c) or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, paid by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance.

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the long-term debt or the deposit obligations or deposit accounts or claims-paying ability of the Master Servicer (or its immediate or remote parent) or the Special Servicer (or its immediate or remote parent), as applicable, is rated no lower than “A-” by Fitch (if then rated by Fitch) or “A3” by Moody’s, the Master Servicer (or its public parent) or the Special Servicer (or its public parent), as applicable, shall be allowed to provide self-insurance with respect to any of its obligations under this Section 3.07.

(g)               The Operating Advisor shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement an “errors and omissions” insurance policy, the issuer of which is rated no lower than the applicable Qualified Insurer ratings, covering losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer’s or employee’s errors or omissions.

Section 3.08        Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements. (a) As to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-sale” clause, which by its terms:

(i)                                   provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the sale or other transfer of an interest in the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor; or

(ii)                                provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan may not be assumed without the consent of the mortgagee in connection with any such sale or other transfer,

(or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related 17g-5 information provider) in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or related Serviced Companion Loan provides that such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan may be assumed or transferred without the consent of the mortgagee; provided that certain conditions are satisfied, then for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Special Servicer, with respect to all Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), related Serviced Companion Loans, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall determine in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether such conditions have been satisfied, or, with respect to any Mortgage Loan which does not allow the mortgagee discretion in approving a transfer or assumption or does not allow for discretion in determining whether conditions to a transfer or assumption have been satisfied, the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as mortgagee of record, shall make such determination with respect to whether such conditions have been satisfied.

Upon receiving a request for any matter described in this Section 3.08(a) that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision, the Master Servicer shall forward such request to the Special Servicer and, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, in accordance with the terms and conditions reasonably agreed to by the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, including the Special Servicer’s consent, the Special Servicer shall process such request and the Master Servicer shall have no further obligation with respect to such request or the related Special Servicer Major Decision. If such action with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan is not a Special Servicer Major Decision, the Master Servicer shall process the related request and shall have no obligation to obtain the consent of or consult with the Special Servicer, Directing Holder or Operating Advisor.

(b)               As to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-encumbrance” clause that by its terms:

(i)                                   provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor; or

(ii)                                requires the consent of the mortgagee to the creation of any such additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor;

then, (A) the Special Servicer shall determine (with respect to (1) a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or, (2) to the extent such action is a Special Servicer Major Decision, any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and related Companion Loan, if applicable), and (B) the Master Servicer shall determine (with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the extent such action is not a Special Servicer Major Decision), in each case, in a manner consistent with the

-187-

-188-  

 

is processing the related action, as applicable, shall (if not already provided in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement) deliver a Review Package to the 17g-5 Information Provider (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related 17g-5 information provider) in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement.

To the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Rating Agency Confirmation and Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation described in the immediately preceding paragraph or in Section 3.08(a) shall be an expense of the related Mortgagor; provided that if the Mortgage Loan documents are silent as to who bears the costs of obtaining any such Rating Agency Confirmation, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, that is processing the related action, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to make the related Mortgagor bear such costs and expenses. Unless determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance such costs not collected from the related Mortgagor shall be advanced as a Property Protection Advance.

If any Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan provides that such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan may be further encumbered without the consent of the mortgagee provided that certain conditions are satisfied and there is no lender discretion with respect to the satisfaction of such conditions, then for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, with respect to all Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), shall determine whether conditions to further encumbrance have been satisfied (provided that there is no lender discretion with respect to the satisfaction of such conditions), or (2) the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, with respect to all Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans for which there is no mortgagee discretion in determining whether conditions are satisfied, shall make such determination with respect to whether such conditions have been satisfied.

Upon receiving a request for any matter described in this Section 3.08(b) that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision, the Master Servicer shall forward such request to the Special Servicer and, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer will process such request with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms and conditions reasonably agreed to by the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, including the Special Servicer’s consent, the Special Servicer shall process such request and the Master Servicer shall have no further obligation with respect to such request or the related Special Servicer Major Decision. If such action with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan is not a Special Servicer Major Decision, the Master Servicer shall process the related request and shall have no obligation to obtain the consent of or consult with the Special Servicer, Directing Holder or Operating Advisor.

(c)               Nothing in this Section 3.08 shall constitute a waiver of the Trustee’s right, as the mortgagee of record, to receive notice of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan, any sale or other transfer of the related Mortgaged Property or the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance with respect to such Mortgaged Property.

(d)               Except as otherwise permitted by Section 3.08(a) and (b) and/or Section 3.18, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall agree to modify, waive or amend any term of any Mortgage Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, in

-189-  

 

connection with the taking of, or the failure to take, any action pursuant to this Section 3.08. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide copies of any final waivers (except with respect to provision of any such waivers to the 17g-5 Information Provider, exclusive of any Privileged Information) it effects pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or (b) to each other and to the 17g-5 Information Provider with respect to each Mortgage Loan, and shall notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, each other and, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the 17g-5 Information Provider (for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.25) and, with respect to a Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, of any assumption or substitution agreement executed pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or (b) and shall forward thereto a copy of such agreement.

(e)               Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer may not waive its rights or grant its consent under any “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause relating to any Mortgage Loan without the consent of the Special Servicer and the Special Servicer may not waive its rights or grant its consent under any “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause relating to any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or relating to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan without ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the consent of the Directing Holder (or (i) during the continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, but prior to a Consultation Termination Event, upon consultation with the Directing Holder pursuant to Section 6.08 hereof). The Directing Holder shall have ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notice along with the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s recommendation and analysis with respect to such proposed waiver or proposed granting of consent and any additional information the Directing Holder may reasonably request from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that is in the possession of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of a proposed waiver or consent under any “due on sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause in which to grant or withhold its consent (provided that if the Special Servicer fails to receive a response to such notice from the Directing Holder in writing within such period, then the Directing Holder shall be deemed to have consented to such proposed waiver or consent).

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.08, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, makes a determination under Section 3.08(a) or Section 3.08(b) hereof that the applicable conditions in the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents, as applicable, with respect to assumptions or encumbrances permitted without the consent of the mortgagee have been satisfied, the applicable assumptions and transfers may be subject to an assumption or other fee, unless such fees are otherwise prohibited pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents; provided that any such fee not provided for in the Mortgage Loan documents does not constitute a “significant” change in yield pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1001-3(e)(2).

Section 3.09        Realization Upon Defaulted Loans and Companion Loans. (a) Upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan documents related to a Serviced Whole Loan or a Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide written notice to the related Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, with a copy of such notice to the Special Servicer. If the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, then the Special Servicer shall, subject to subsections (b) through (d) of this

-190-  

 

Section 3.09, Section 3.24, subject to the Directing Holder’s and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties’ respective rights pursuant to Section 6.08, and any Companion Holder or mezzanine lender’s rights under the related Co-Lender Agreement (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, on behalf of the holders of the beneficial interest of the related Companion Loan) or this Agreement, exercise reasonable efforts, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert (which may include an REO Acquisition) the ownership of property securing any such Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and related Companion Loan, if any, as come into and continue in default as to which no satisfactory arrangements (including by way of a discounted pay-off) can be made for collection of delinquent payments, and which are not released from the Trust Fund pursuant to any other provision hereof. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall not be required to make a Property Protection Advance and expend funds toward the restoration of such property unless the Special Servicer has determined in its reasonable discretion that such restoration will increase the net proceeds of liquidation of such Mortgaged Property to Certificateholders after reimbursement to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for such Property Protection Advance, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has not determined that such Property Protection Advance together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in any such proceedings shall be advanced by the Master Servicer; provided that, in each case, such cost or expense would not, if incurred, constitute a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance. Nothing contained in this Section 3.09 shall be construed so as to require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, to make an offer on any Mortgaged Property at a foreclosure sale or similar proceeding that is in excess of the fair market value of such property, as determined by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in its reasonable judgment taking into account the factors described in Section 3.16(b) and the results of any Appraisal obtained pursuant to the following sentence, all such offers to be made in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard. If and when the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer deems it necessary and prudent for purposes of establishing the fair market value of any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan or any related defaulted Companion Loan, whether for purposes of making an offer at foreclosure or otherwise, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, is authorized to have an Appraisal performed with respect to such property by an Independent MAI-designated appraiser the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance.

(b)               The Special Servicer shall not acquire any personal property pursuant to this Section 3.09 unless either:

(i)                                  such personal property is incidental to real property (within the meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Special Servicer; or

(ii)                                the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Trust (to the extent not allocable to the related Companion Loan) will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

-191-  

 

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.09 and Section 3.24, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee, obtain title to a Mortgaged Property in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or take any other action with respect to any Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and/or any related Companion Holder, would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of CERCLA or any comparable law, unless (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate to such effect delivered to the Trustee) the Special Servicer has previously determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard, based on an Environmental Assessment of such Mortgaged Property performed by an Independent Person who regularly conducts Environmental Assessments and performed within six (6) months prior to any such acquisition of title or other action, that:

(i)                                  such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, after consultation with an environmental consultant, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Holders constituted a single lender, taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related Companion Loan, to take such actions as are necessary to bring such Mortgaged Property in compliance with such laws, and

(ii)                               there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any Hazardous Materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any currently effective federal, state or local law or regulation, or that, if any such Hazardous Materials are present for which such action could be required, after consultation with an environmental consultant, it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Companion Holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Holders constituted a single lender, taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related Companion Loan, to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.

The cost of any such Environmental Assessment shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance and the cost of any remedial, corrective or other further action contemplated by clause (i) and/or clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance, unless it is a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance (in which case it shall be an expense of the Trust and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, shall be withdrawn in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement by the Master Servicer from the Collection Account, including from the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account (such withdrawal to be made from amounts on deposit therein that are otherwise payable on or allocable to such Serviced Whole Loan)); and if any such Environmental Assessment so warrants, the Special Servicer shall, except with respect to any Companion Loan and any Environmental Assessment ordered after such Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, perform such additional environmental testing at the expense of the Trust as it deems necessary and prudent to determine whether the conditions described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence have been satisfied. With respect to Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer and,

-192-  

 

with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans, the Special Servicer (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall review and be familiar with the terms and conditions relating to enforcing claims and shall monitor the dates by which any claim or action must be taken (including delivering any notices to the insurer and using reasonable efforts to perform any actions required under such policy) under each environmental Insurance Policy in effect and obtained on behalf of the mortgagee to receive the maximum proceeds available under such policy for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests).

(d)               If (i) the environmental testing contemplated by subsection (c) above establishes that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of subsection (c) above of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan and, in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any related Companion Loan, and (ii) there has been no Breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in or required to be made pursuant to Section 6 of each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement for which the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller could be required to repurchase such Defaulted Loan pursuant to Section 6 of each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, then the Special Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust (other than proceeding to acquire title to the Mortgaged Property) and is hereby authorized, with the consent of the Directing Holder pursuant to Section 6.08 (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) and after consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Parties pursuant to Section 6.08 (other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan), with the consent of the Directing Holder at such time as it deems appropriate to release such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, provided that, if such Mortgage Loan has a then outstanding principal balance of greater than $1,000,000, then prior to the release of the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, (i) the Special Servicer shall have notified the Rating Agencies, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and ((A) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (B) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) the Directing Holder or the Risk Retention Consultation Parties , in writing of its intention to so release such Mortgaged Property and the bases for such intention, (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall have posted such notice of the Special Servicer’s intention to so release such Mortgaged Property to the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) and (iii) in addition to the prior written consent of the Directing Holder as required above, the Certificateholders evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights shall have consented or have been deemed to have consented to such release within thirty (30) days of the Certificate Administrator’s posting such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website (failure to respond by the end of such 30-day period being deemed consent of the Holders of the Certificates). To the extent any fee charged by any Rating Agency in connection with rendering such written confirmation is not paid by the related Mortgagor, such fee is to be an expense of the Trust; provided that the Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such fee from the Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents.

(e)               The Special Servicer shall provide written reports and a copy of any Environmental Assessments in electronic format to the Directing Holder and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties (in each case, other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan), the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider monthly regarding any actions taken by the Special Servicer with respect to any Mortgaged Property

(f)                The Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer of any abandoned and/or foreclosed properties which require reporting to the IRS and shall provide the Master Servicer with all information regarding forgiveness of indebtedness and required to be reported with respect to any Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan that is abandoned or foreclosed and the Master Servicer shall report to the IRS and the related Mortgagor, in the manner required by applicable law, such information and the Master Servicer shall report, via IRS Form 1099A or IRS Form 1099C (or any successor form), all forgiveness of indebtedness and abandonment and foreclosure to the extent such information has been provided to the Master Servicer by the Special Servicer. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such report to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator.

(g)               The Special Servicer shall have the right to determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the advisability of the maintenance of an action to obtain a deficiency judgment if the state in which the Mortgaged Property is located and the terms of the Mortgage Loan (and if applicable, the related Companion Loan) permit such an action.

(h)               The Special Servicer shall maintain accurate records, prepared by one of its Servicing Officers, of each Final Recovery Determination in respect of a Defaulted Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or defaulted Companion Loan or any REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) and the basis thereof. Each Final Recovery Determination shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate promptly delivered to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Holder (other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties (other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) and the Master Servicer and in no event later than the next succeeding P&I Advance Determination Date.

(a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), or the receipt by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Custodian and request delivery of the related Mortgage File. Any such notice and request shall be in the form of a Request for Release substantially in the form of Exhibit E signed by a Servicing Officer and shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or remitted to the Master Servicer to enable such deposit, have been or will be so deposited. Within seven (7) Business Days (or within such shorter period as release can reasonably be accomplished if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer notifies the Custodian of an exigency) of receipt of such notice and request, the Custodian shall release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided that in the case of the payment in full of a Serviced Companion Loan or its related Mortgage Loan, the related

Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Mortgage File or any document therein to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or a designee), as the case may be. Upon return of such Mortgage File or such document to the Custodian, or the delivery to the Trustee and the Custodian of a certificate of a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, stating that such Mortgage Loan (and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan), was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation which are required to be deposited into the Collection Account (including amounts related to the related Companion Loan) pursuant to Section 3.04(a) have been or will be so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the Custodian to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or a designee), as the case may be, with the original being released upon termination of the Trust.

(c)               Within seven (7) Business Days (or within such shorter period as delivery can reasonably be accomplished if the Special Servicer notifies the Trustee of an exigency) of receipt thereof, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Special Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note (including any note evidencing a related Companion Loan) or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. The Special Servicer shall be responsible for the preparation of all such documents and pleadings. When submitted to the Trustee for signature, such documents or pleadings shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Servicing Officer requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and certifying as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s sale. The Trustee shall not be required to review such documents for their sufficiency or enforceability.

With respect to each Servicing Shift Whole Loan, on and after the related Servicing Shift Securitization Date, if pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement and the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, and as appropriate for enforcing the terms of such Servicing Shift Whole Loan, as applicable, the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer submits in a Request for Release delivery to it of the original Note, then the Custodian shall release or cause the release of such original Note to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or its designee.

(d)               If, from time to time, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement and the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, and as appropriate for enforcing the terms of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer requests delivery to it of the original Mortgage Note for a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan,

-195-  

 

then the Custodian shall release or cause the release of such original Mortgage Note to such Non-Serviced Master Servicer or its designee.

Section 3.11        Servicing Compensation. (a) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan and REO Loan (other than the portion of any REO Loan related to any Non-Serviced Companion Loan) (including Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan constituting a “specially serviced mortgage loan” under any related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement). As to each Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan and REO Loan, the Servicing Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Servicing Fee with respect to any Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, except that if such Mortgage Loan is part of a Serviced Whole Loan and such Serviced Whole Loan continues to be serviced and administered under this Agreement notwithstanding such Liquidation Event, then the applicable Servicing Fee shall continue to accrue and be payable as if such Liquidation Event did not occur. The Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, from payments of interest on each Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan and REO Revenues allocable as interest on each REO Loan, and as otherwise provided by Section 3.05(a). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees in respect of any Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan out of that portion of related payments, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and REO Revenues (in the case of an REO Loan) allocable as recoveries of interest, to the extent permitted by Section 3.05(a) (and as otherwise provided therein). Except as set forth in the next two (2) sentences, the third paragraph of this Section 3.11(a), Section 6.03, Section 6.05 and Section 7.01(c), the right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part (except in connection with a transfer of all of the Master Servicer’s duties and obligations hereunder to a successor servicer in accordance with the terms hereof). With respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, the Servicing Fee shall be payable to the Master Servicer from amounts payable in respect of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, subject to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement, or if unpaid after final recovery on the related Mortgage Loan, out of general collections on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to the other Mortgage Loans.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain, and shall not be required to deposit in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a), additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) in the form of the following amounts to the extent collected from the related Mortgagor: (i) 100% of Excess Modification Fees related to any modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) including any related Serviced Companion Loans that are not Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans, to the extent not prohibited by the related Co-Lender Agreement and that are not Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans that do not involve a Major Decision and 50% of Excess Modification Fees related to any modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any

-196-  

 

related Serviced Companion Loans that are not Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans to the extent not prohibited by the related Co-Lender Agreement and that involve one or more Major Decisions (whether or not processed by the Master Servicer) (including clauses (v), (vii), (x), (xix), (xxi) and (xxiii) of the definition of Major Decisions to the extent processed by the Master Servicer); (ii) 100% of all assumption application fees received on any Mortgage Loans, only for which the Master Servicer is processing the underlying assumption related transaction (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Co-Lender Agreement) (whether or not the consent of the Special Servicer is required) and 100% of all defeasance fees (provided that for the avoidance of doubt, any such defeasance fees shall not include any Modification Fees or waiver fees in connection with a defeasance that the Special Servicer is entitled to under this Agreement); (iii) 100% of assumption, waiver, consent and earnout fees and similar fees pursuant to Section 3.08 and Section 3.18 or other actions performed in connection with this Agreement on the Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan to the extent not prohibited by the related Co-Lender Agreement) which do not involve a Major Decision; (iv) 50% of all assumption, waiver, consent and earnout fees and similar fees (other than assumption application and defeasance fees), pursuant to Section 3.08 and Section 3.18 on any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan to the extent not prohibited by the related Co-Lender Agreement) which involve a Major Decision and only to the extent that all amounts then due and payable with respect to the related Mortgage Loan have been paid (whether or not processed by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (including clauses (v), (vii), (x), (xix), (xxi) and (xxii) of the definition of Major Decisions to the extent processed by the Master Servicer); (v) late payment charges and default interest paid by the Mortgagors (that were accrued while the related Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or any related Serviced Companion Loan (to the extent not prohibited by the related Co-Lender Agreement) were not Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans), but only to the extent such late payment charges and default interest are not needed to pay interest on Advances or certain additional trust fund expenses incurred with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or, if provided under the related Co-Lender Agreement, any related Serviced Companion Loan since the Closing Date. In addition, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) any charges for processing Mortgagor requests, beneficiary statements or demands (to the extent such beneficiary statements or demands are prepared by the Master Servicer), fees in connection with defeasance, if any, and other customary charges, and amounts collected for checks returned for insufficient funds related to the accounts held by the Master Servicer, in each case only to the extent actually paid by the related Mortgagor and shall not be required to deposit such amounts in the Collection Account or the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or Section 3.04(b), respectively; (vi) with respect to accounts held by the Master Servicer, 100% of the charges by the Master Servicer collected for checks returned for insufficient funds; and (vii) 100% of charges for beneficiary statements or demands actually paid by the related Mortgagors to the extent such beneficiary statements or demands were prepared by the Master Servicer. In addition, the Master Servicer shall also be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such review fees are (i) not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (2) not charged in lieu of any fee that is otherwise to be split between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer and (3) only to the extent actually paid by the related Mortgagor. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Master Servicer shall also be entitled to additional

-197-  

 

servicing compensation in the form of: (i) Penalty Charges to the extent provided in Section 3.11(d), (ii) interest or other income earned on deposits relating to the Trust Fund in the Collection Account or the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the Master Servicer Remittance Date related to the current Distribution Date), (iii) interest or other income earned on deposits in the Servicing Account which are not required by applicable law or the related Mortgage Loan to be paid to the Mortgagor, and (iv) the difference, if positive, between Prepayment Interest Excess and Prepayment Interest Shortfalls collected on the Mortgage Loans and any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, during the related Collection Period to the extent not required to be paid as Compensating Interest Payments. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of any amounts due and owing to any of its Sub-Servicers and the premiums for any blanket Insurance Policy insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07), if and to the extent such expenses are not payable directly out of the Collection Account and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

With respect to any of the preceding fees as to which both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are entitled to receive a portion thereof, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in their sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge its respective portion of such fee; provided that (A) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have the right to reduce or elect not to charge the portion of any such fee due to the other and (B) to the extent either the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge its respective portion in any such fee, the party that reduced or elected not to charge its respective portion of such fee shall not have any right to share in any part of the other party’s portion of such fee. If the Master Servicer decides not to charge any fee, the Special Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Master Servicer had charged a fee and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer. If the Special Servicer decides not to charge any fee, the Master Servicer will nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Master Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had charged a fee and the Special Servicer will not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Master Servicer. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer may waive any or all penalty charges regardless of when they accrued. If the Special Servicer has partially waived penalty charges (part of which accrued prior to the related Special Servicing Transfer Event), any collections in respect of such penalty charge will be shared pro rata by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer based on the respective portions of such penalty charges to which each would otherwise have been entitled.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Master Servicer may, at its option, assign or pledge to any third party or retain for itself the Transferable Servicing Interest; provided, however, that in the event of any resignation or termination of such Master Servicer, all or any portion of the Transferable Servicing Interest may be reduced by the Trustee to the extent reasonably necessary (in the sole discretion of the Trustee) for the Trustee to obtain a qualified successor master servicer that meets the requirements of Section 6.05 and who requires market-rate servicing compensation that accrues at a per annum rate in excess of the Servicing Retained

-198-  

 

Fee Rate, and any such assignment of the Transferable Servicing Interest shall, by its terms be expressly subject to the terms of this Agreement and such reduction. The Master Servicer shall pay the Transferable Servicing Interest to the holder of the Transferable Servicing Interest at such time and to the extent the Master Servicer is entitled to receive payment of its Servicing Fees hereunder, notwithstanding any resignation or termination of the Master Servicer hereunder (subject to reduction pursuant to the preceding sentence).

(b)               As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and REO Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any REO Loan relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property). As to each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and REO Loan, the Special Servicing Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Special Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans or REO Loans, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Special Servicing Fee with respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs with respect to the related Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.05(a). The right to receive the Special Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Special Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Special Servicing Fees with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               Additional servicing compensation in the form of (i) 100% of all Excess Modification Fees related to (x) any modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and (y) modifications, waivers, extensions or amendments of any Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loans that are not Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans to the extent not prohibited by the related Co-Lender Agreement and that involve one or more Major Decisions pursuant to clauses (v), (vii), (x), (xix), (xxi) and (xxiii) of the definition thereof, to the extent processed by the Special Servicer, (ii) 100% of all assumption application fees received on any Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan (to the extent not prohibited by the related Co-Lender Agreement), only for which the Special Servicer is processing the underlying assumption related transaction, (iii) 100% of assumption, waiver, consent and earnout fees and similar fees, pursuant to Section 3.08 and Section 3.18 or certain other similar fees paid by the related Mortgagor (x) on any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and (y) with respect to all Mortgage Loans (including any Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent not prohibited by the related Co-Lender Agreements, if applicable) (excluding any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) that are not Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans that involve one or more Major Decisions pursuant to clauses (v), (vii), (x), (xix), (xxi) and (xxiii) of the definition thereof, to the extent processed by the Special Servicer, (iv) 50% of all Excess Modification Fees and 50% of all assumption, waiver, consent and earnout fees and similar fees (other than assumption application and defeasance fees) received with respect to all Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan to the extent not prohibited by the related Co-Lender Agreement) (excluding any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) that are not Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans that involve one or more Major Decisions (regardless of

-199-  

 

whether processed by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) (including clauses (v), (vii), (x) and (xxiii) of the definition of Major Decision) (to the extent processed by the Master Servicer), (v) with respect to accounts held by the Special Servicer, 100% of charges by the Special Servicer collected for checks returned for insufficient funds and (vi) 100% of charges for beneficiary statements or demands actually paid by the related Mortgagors to the extent such beneficiary statements or demands were prepared by the Special Servicer, shall be promptly paid to the Special Servicer by the Master Servicer (or directly from the related Mortgagor) to the extent such fees are paid by the Mortgagor and shall not be required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a). Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of: (i) Penalty Charges to the extent provided in Section 3.11(d); (ii) beneficiary statement or demands (to the extent such beneficiary statements or demands are prepared by the Special Servicer); (iii) amounts collected for checks returned for insufficient funds related to the accounts held by the Special Servicer; and (iv) interest or other income earned on deposits relating to the Trust Fund in the applicable REO Account and Loss of Value Reserve Fund in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the Master Servicer Remittance Date related to such Distribution Date). In addition, the Special Servicer shall also be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such review fees are (i) not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (2) not charged in lieu of any fee that is otherwise to be split between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer and (3) only to the extent actually paid by the related Mortgagor. The Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of a Workout Fee with respect to each Corrected Loan at the Workout Fee Rate on such Corrected Loan for so long as it remains a Corrected Loan; provided, however, that after receipt by the Special Servicer of Workout Fees with respect to such Corrected Loan in an amount equal to $25,000, any Workout Fees in excess of such amount shall be reduced by the Excess Modification Fee Amount; provided, further, however, that in the event the Workout Fee collected over the course of such workout calculated at the Workout Fee Rate is less than $25,000, then the Special Servicer shall be entitled to an amount from the final payment on the related Corrected Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) that would result in the total Workout Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of that Corrected Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) to be $25,000. The Workout Fee shall be reduced (but not below zero) pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to each collection on such Corrected Loan from which fee would otherwise be payable until an amount equal to such Excess Modification Fee Amount has been deducted in full. The Workout Fee with respect to any Corrected Loan will cease to be payable if such loan again becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided that a new Workout Fee will become payable if and when such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan again becomes a Corrected Loan. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Workout Fee with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause) or resigns, it shall retain the right to receive any and all Workout Fees payable in respect of Mortgage Loans or any related Companion Loan that became Corrected Loans prior to the time of that termination or resignation except the Workout Fees will no longer be payable if the Corrected Loan subsequently becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan. If the Special Servicer resigns or is terminated (other than for cause), it will receive any Workout Fees payable on Specially Serviced Mortgage

-200-  

 

Loans for which the resigning or terminated Special Servicer had determined to grant a forbearance or cured the event of default through a modification, restructuring or workout negotiated by the Special Servicer and evidenced by a signed writing, but which had not as of the time the Special Servicer resigned or was terminated become a Corrected Loan solely because the Mortgagor had not had sufficient time to make three consecutive timely Periodic Payments and which subsequently becomes a Corrected Loan as a result of the Mortgagor making such three consecutive timely Periodic Payments. The successor special servicer will not be entitled to any portion of such Workout Fees. The Special Servicer will not be entitled to receive any Workout Fees after termination for cause. A Liquidation Fee will be payable with respect to each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Property (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) as to which the Special Servicer receives any Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds subject to the exceptions set forth in the definition of Liquidation Fee (such Liquidation Fee to be paid out of such Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds). If, however, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds are received with respect to any Corrected Loan and the Special Servicer is properly entitled to a Workout Fee, such Workout Fee will be payable based on and out of the portion of such Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds that constitute principal and/or interest on such Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall only be entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee or a Workout Fee, but not both, with respect to proceeds on any Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Companion Loan, the Liquidation Fee, Workout Fee and Special Servicing Fees, if any, will be computed as provided in the related Co-Lender Agreement or to the extent such Co-Lender Agreement is silent or refers to this Agreement or indicates such fees are paid in accordance with this Agreement, as provided herein as though such Companion Loan were a Mortgage Loan. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Special Servicer will also be entitled to additional fees in the form of Penalty Charges. The Special Servicer shall be required to pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of any amounts, other than management fees in respect of REO Properties, due and owing to any of its Sub-Servicers and the premiums for any blanket Insurance Policy obtained by it insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07), if and to the extent such expenses are not expressly payable directly out of the Collection Account or the applicable REO Account, and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

With respect to any of the preceding fees as to which both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are entitled to receive a portion thereof, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in their sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge its respective portion of such fee; provided that (A) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have the right to reduce or elect not to charge the portion of any such fee due to the other and (B) to the extent either the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge its respective portion in any such fee, the party that reduced or elected not to charge its respective portion of such fee shall not have any right to share in any part of the other party’s portion of such fee. If the Master Servicer decides not to charge any fee, the Special Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Master Servicer had charged a fee and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer. If the Special Servicer decides not to charge any fee, the Master Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled

-201-

to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Master Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had charged a fee and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Master Servicer. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer may waive any or all penalty charges regardless of when they accrued. If the Special Servicer has partially waived penalty charges (part of which accrued prior to the related Special Servicing Transfer Event), any collection in respect of such Penalty Charge shall be shared pro rata by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer based on the respective portions of such Penalty Charges to which each would otherwise have been entitled.

(d)               In determining the compensation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to Penalty Charges, on any Distribution Date, the aggregate Penalty Charges collected on any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Companion Loan since the prior Distribution Date shall be applied (in such order) to reimburse (i) the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee for interest on Advances on such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan, if applicable (and, in connection with a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer, the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee for interest on the Property Protection Advances made by any such party with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan pursuant to the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement) due on such Distribution Date, (ii) the Trust for all interest on Advances previously paid to the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vi) hereof (and, in connection with a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related trust for all interest on Property Protection Advances reimbursed by such trust to any party under the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, which resulted in an additional expense for the Trust, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement) with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan, if applicable and (iii) the Trust for all additional expenses of the Trust (including Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees), including without limitation, inspections by the Special Servicer and all unpaid Advances incurred since the Closing Date with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Penalty Charges (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, which shall be payable as additional servicing compensation under the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement) remaining thereafter shall be distributed to the Master Servicer, if and to the extent accrued while such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan was a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, and to the Special Servicer, if and to the extent accrued on such Mortgage Loan during the period such Mortgage Loan was a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Loan. Any Penalty Charges paid or payable as additional servicing compensation to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be distributed between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, on a pro rata basis, based on the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s respective entitlements to such compensation described in the previous sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Penalty Charges with respect to any Companion Loan will be allocated pursuant to the applicable Co-Lender Agreement after payment of all related Advances and interest thereon and additional expenses of the Trust in accordance with this Section 3.11(d).

If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan prior to the applicable Servicing Shift Securitization Date, the Special Servicer shall service and administer such Servicing Shift Whole Loan and any related REO Property in the same manner as any other Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or Serviced REO Property and shall be entitled to all

-202-

rights and compensation earned with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan as Special Servicer of such Serviced Whole Loan. With respect to a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, prior to the applicable Servicing Shift Securitization Date, no other special servicer will be entitled to any such compensation or have such rights and obligations. If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan is still a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan on the applicable Servicing Shift Securitization Date, the Non-Serviced Special Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to compensation with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan as if the Special Servicer were being terminated as the Special Servicer with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan and the Non-Serviced Special Servicer were replacing the Special Servicer as the successor Special Servicer with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan.

If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan is being specially serviced on the related Servicing Shift Securitization Date, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to compensation for the period during which it acted as Special Servicer with respect to such Whole Loan, including its share of any Liquidation Fees or Workout Fees and any additional servicing compensation as well as all surviving indemnity and other rights in respect of such special servicing role under this Agreement.

(e)               With respect to each Distribution Date, the Special Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer within two (2) Business Days following the Determination Date, and the Master Servicer shall deliver, to the extent it has received, to the Certificate Administrator, without charge and on the same day as the Master Servicer is required to deliver the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package for such Distribution Date, an electronic report (which may include HTML, word or excel compatible format, clean and searchable PDF format or such other format as mutually agreeable between the Certificate Administrator and the Special Servicer) that discloses and contains an itemized listing of any Disclosable Special Servicer Fees received by the Special Servicer or any of its Affiliates, if any, with respect to such Distribution Date; provided that no such report shall be due in any month during which no Disclosable Special Servicer Fees were received.

(f)                The Special Servicer and its Affiliates shall be prohibited from receiving or retaining any compensation or any other remuneration (including, without limitation, in the form of commissions, brokerage fees, rebates, or as a result of any other fee-sharing arrangement) from any Person (including, without limitation, the Trust, any Mortgagor, any property manager, any guarantor or indemnitor in respect of a Mortgage Loan and any purchaser of any Mortgage Loan or REO Property) in connection with the disposition, workout or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, the management or disposition of any REO Property, or the performance of any other special servicing duties under this Agreement, other than as expressly provided in this Section 3.11; provided that such prohibition shall not apply to Permitted Special Servicer/Affiliate Fees.

(g)               Pursuant to the CREFC^® License Agreement, CREFC^® shall be paid (according to the payment instructions set forth on Exhibit JJ hereto or such other payment instructions as CREFC^® may provide to the Master Servicer in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Master Servicer Remittance Date) the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee on a monthly basis. The Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and, to the extent sufficient funds are on deposit therein, pay the CREFC^® Intellectual Property

The cost of such inspection by the Special Servicer pursuant to the second proviso of the immediately preceding sentence shall be an expense of the Trust, and, to the extent not paid by the related Mortgagor, reimbursed first from Penalty Charges actually received from the related Mortgagor and then from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(ii), provided that, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, such cost shall be payable, subject to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement (i) with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, pro rata and pari passu, from the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, in accordance with their respective Stated Principal Balances, or (ii) with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, first, from the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan and then, from the AB Mortgage Loan (and any Pari Passu Companion Loans, on a pro rata basis) (provided that, with respect to any AB Subordinate Companion Loan, the foregoing shall not limit or otherwise modify the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement pursuant to which any amounts collected with respect to the related Whole Loan are allocated to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan, any related Pari Passu Companion Loan and the AB Subordinate Companion Loan), in each case, prior to being payable out of general collections.

-207-

shall be entitled to conclusively rely, absent manifest error, on the content, completeness, accuracy and compliance with any applicable requirements of Items 1111(h) and 1125 of Regulation AB and Item 601(b) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act as in effect on the Closing Date of the Initial Schedule AL File, Initial Schedule AL Additional File and the Annex A-1 to the Prospectus. The Master Servicer may concurrently with the delivery of the related CREFC^® Schedule AL File, deliver any related Schedule AL Additional File in EDGAR-Compatible Format to the Certificate Administrator. The CREFC^® Schedule AL File and the Schedule AL Additional File shall each be a single file. Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Master Servicer shall be required to combine multiple CREFC^® Schedule AL Files or Schedule AL Additional Files, unless, solely with respect to the Master Servicer, multiple Sub-Servicers prepare and submit such CREFC^® Schedule AL Files or Schedule AL Additional Files to the Master Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall not be required to review, redact, reconcile, edit or verify the content, completeness or accuracy of the information contained in any CREFC® Schedule AL File or any Schedule AL Additional File.

In the absence of manifest error, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, without investigation or inquiry, any information and reports delivered to it by any third party, and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the Master Servicer’s reports and the Special Servicer’s reports and any information provided by the Trustee, without any duty or obligation to recompute, verify or recalculate any of the amounts and other information stated therein.

(e)               The Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer the reports and information required of the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(b) and Section 3.12(c), and the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Certificate Administrator the reports and data files set forth in Section 3.12(d). The Master Servicer may, absent manifest error, conclusively rely on the reports and/or data to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(b) and Section 3.12(c). The Certificate Administrator may, absent manifest error, conclusively rely on the reports and/or data to be provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(d). In the case of information or reports to be furnished by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 3.12(d), to the extent that such information or reports are, in turn, based on information or reports to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c) and to the extent that such reports are to be prepared and delivered by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c), the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to provide such information or reports to the Certificate Administrator until it has received the requisite information or reports from the Special Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall not be in default hereunder due to a delay in providing the reports required by Section 3.12(d) caused by the Special Servicer’s failure to timely provide any information or report required under Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c) of this Agreement.

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by this Section 3.12 shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.12 to the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer so fails because such disclosure, in the reasonable belief of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would violate any applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may

-208-

disclose any such information or any additional information to any Person so long as such disclosure is consistent with applicable law and the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may affix to any information provided by it any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto).

(g)               Unless otherwise specifically stated herein, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is required to deliver any statement, report or information under any provisions of this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may satisfy such obligation by (x) physically delivering a paper copy of such statement, report or information, (y) delivering such statement, report or information in a commonly used electronic format or (z) except with respect to information to be provided to the Certificate Administrator, any Other Certificate Administrator, any Other Servicer and, for so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, the Directing Holder, making such statement, report or information available on the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s Internet website, unless this Agreement expressly specifies a particular method of delivery.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall deliver any required statements, reports or other information to the Certificate Administrator in an electronic format mutually agreeable to the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may physically deliver a paper copy of any such statement, report or information as a temporary measure due to system problems, however, copies in electronic format shall follow upon the correction of such system problems.

Section 3.13        Access to Certain Information. (a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall provide or cause to be provided to the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall afford access to any Mortgage Loan Seller and to any Certificateholder that is a federally insured financial institution, the OCC, the FDIC, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America and the supervisory agents and examiners of such boards and such corporations, and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any such Certificateholder and to each Holder of a Non-Registered Certificate, access to any documentation or information regarding the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is a portion of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan, and the Trust within its control which may be required by applicable law. At the election of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator, such access may be afforded to such Person identified above by the delivery of copies of information as requested by such Person and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator shall be permitted to require payment (other than from the Directing Holder and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator on its own behalf or on behalf of the Certificateholders, as applicable) of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by it in making such copies. Such access shall (except as described in the preceding sentence) be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian.

-209-

The failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section 3.13 as a result of a confidentiality obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.13. In connection with providing information pursuant to this Section 3.13, the Master Servicer and Special Servicer may each (i) affix a reasonable disclaimer to any information provided by it for which it is not the original source (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto); (ii) affix to any information provided by it a reasonable statement regarding securities law restrictions on such information and/or condition access to information on (x) the execution of a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit X, or (y) execution of a “click-through” confidentiality agreement if such information is being provided through the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s website; (iii) withhold access to confidential information or any intellectual property; and/or (iv) withhold access to items of information contained in the Servicing File for any Mortgage Loan if the disclosure of such items is prohibited by applicable law or the provisions of any related Mortgage Loan documents or would constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by it pursuant to this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement to the extent that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines, in its reasonable good faith judgment consistent with the applicable Servicing Standard, that such disclosure would violate applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or Companion Loans or the Mortgaged Properties, constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege on behalf of the Trust or the Trust or otherwise materially harm the Trust or the Trust. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may refrain from disclosing information that it reasonably determines would prejudice the interest of the Certificateholders with respect to a workout or exercise of remedies as to any particular Mortgage Loan.

Upon the reasonable request of any Certificateholder (or with respect to any AB Subordinate Companion Loan, the holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Privileged Person identified to the Master Servicer’s reasonable satisfaction, the Master Servicer may provide (or forward electronically) at the expense of such Certificateholder or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, copies of any Appraisals, operating statements, rent rolls and financial statements (in each case, solely relating to the related Serviced AB Whole Loan, if requested by the holder of an AB Subordinate Companion Loan) obtained by the Master Servicer; provided that, in connection with such request, the Master Servicer may require a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer, generally to the effect that such Person is a Certificateholder and a Privileged Person and will keep such information confidential and shall use such information only for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Certificateholder or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, may have under the Trust.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless required by applicable law or court order, no Certificateholder or beneficial owner shall be given access to, or be provided copies of, the Mortgage Files or Diligence Files.

Certificateholder, if any such Person becomes an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, upon delivery to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in physical form of an investor certification substantially in the form Exhibit P-1E and upon delivery to the Certificate Administrator in physical form of an investor certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1F, which shall include each of the CTSLink User ID associated with such Excluded Controlling Class Holder, such Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall be entitled to access all information (other than the Excluded Information with respect to any Excluded Controlling Class Loans (unless a loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loans)) available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website.

In the case of the Directing Holder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, upon delivery of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B hereto, such Directing Holder or Controlling Class Certificateholder shall be entitled to access all information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee may each rely on (i) an Investor Certification in the form of Exhibit P-1B hereto from the Directing Holder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder to the effect that such Person is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder and (ii) an Investor Certification in the form of Exhibit P-1D hereto from the Directing Holder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder to the effect that such Person is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to one or more Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s). In the event the Directing Holder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder becomes an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, such party shall promptly notify each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1E that such party has become an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to the Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s) listed in such notice and shall also provide the Certificate Administrator a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1F listing each of the CTSLink User ID associated with such Excluded Controlling Class Holder and directing the Certificate Administrator to restrict such Excluded Controlling Class Holder’s access to the Certificate Administrator’s Website as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. Upon confirmation from the Certificate Administrator that such access has been restricted, such Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall submit a new Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1D to access the information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, except that such Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall not be entitled to access any Excluded Information related to any Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s) (unless a loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s)) made available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. With respect to any Excluded Information sent for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor shall mark or label such information as “Excluded Information” prior to delivery to the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall segregate on the Certificate Administrator’s Website such Excluded Information (and, if possible, on loan-by-loan basis) from information relating to other Mortgage Loans or Whole Loans, as applicable.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall be

-215-

entitled to conclusively assume that the Directing Holder and all beneficial owners of the Certificates of the Controlling Class are not Excluded Controlling Class Holders except to the extent that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, has received a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1E from the Directing Holder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that it has become an Excluded Controlling Class Holder. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator shall be liable for any communication to the Directing Holder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder or disclosure of any information relating to an Excluded Controlling Class Loan (including any related Excluded Information delivered to the Certificate Administrator for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website) if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, did not receive prior written notice that the related Mortgage Loan is an Excluded Controlling Class Loan and/or, with respect to any related Excluded Information posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, such information was not delivered to the Certificate Administrator in accordance with Section 3.30(a).

Each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on delivery from the Directing Holder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B that it is not or is no longer an Excluded Controlling Class Holder. To the extent the Directing Holder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder receives access pursuant to this Agreement to any Excluded Information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website or otherwise receives access to such Excluded Information, such Directing Holder or Controlling Class Certificateholder shall be deemed to have agreed that it (i) will not directly or indirectly provide any such Excluded Information to (A) the related Borrower Party, (B) any related Excluded Controlling Class Holder, (C) any employees or personnel of such Directing Holder or Controlling Class Certificateholder or any of its Affiliates involved in the management of any investment in the related Borrower Party or the related Mortgaged Property or (D) to its actual knowledge, any non-Affiliate that holds a direct or indirect ownership interest in the related Borrower Party, and (ii) will maintain sufficient internal controls and appropriate policies and procedures in place in order to comply with the obligations described in clause (i) above.

-216-

Consultation Party or VRR Interest Owner or any of its Affiliates involved in the management of any investment in the related Borrower Party or the related Mortgaged Property or (C) to its actual knowledge, any non-Affiliate that holds a direct or indirect ownership interest in the related Borrower Party, and (ii) will maintain sufficient internal controls and appropriate policies and procedures in place in order to comply with the obligations described in clause (i) above. For the avoidance of doubt, any file or report contained in the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package (CREFC^® IRP) (other than the CREFC® Special Servicer Loan File relating to any such applicable Excluded Loan) shall be considered information that is aggregated with information of other Mortgage Loans at a pool level.

The Certificate Administrator makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any report, document or other information made available on its Internet website or its filing of such information pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, filing via EDGAR and assumes no responsibility therefor, other than with respect to such reports, documents or other information prepared by the Certificate Administrator.

REO Property with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is excluded for all purposes of this Section 3.14. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, shall sell any REO Property prior to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which the Trust acquires ownership of such REO Property, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.856-6(b)(1), for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code, unless the Special Servicer either (i) applies for an extension of time no later than sixty (60) days prior to the close of the third calendar year in which it acquired ownership (or the period provided in the then applicable REMIC Provisions) and such extension is granted or is not denied (an “REO Extension”) by the IRS to sell such REO Property or (ii) obtains for the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such REO Property subsequent to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which acquisition occurred will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event. If the Special Servicer is granted or not denied the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence or obtains the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Special Servicer shall sell such REO Property within such longer period as is permitted by such REO Extension or such Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. Any expense incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with its being granted the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the second preceding sentence or its obtaining the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the second preceding sentence, shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a).

(b)               The Special Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with any REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets. If an REO Acquisition shall occur, the Special Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more REO Accounts, held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, on behalf of any related Companion Holder(s), as applicable, as their interest shall appear, and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), for the retention of revenues and other proceeds derived from each REO Property. The REO Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Special Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the applicable REO Account, within one (1) Business Day after receipt of properly identified funds, all REO Revenues, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds received in respect of an REO Property. Funds in the REO Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 3.06. The Special Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, and the Master Servicer of the location of the applicable REO Account when first established and of the new location of the applicable REO Account prior to any change thereof.

-223-

(c)               The Special Servicer shall withdraw from the applicable REO Account funds necessary for the proper operation, management, insuring, leasing, maintenance and disposition of any REO Property, but only to the extent of amounts on deposit in the applicable REO Account relating to such REO Property. On the later of the date that is (x) on or prior to each Determination Date or (y) two (2) Business Days after such amounts are received and properly identified and determined to be available (or with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, on the Business Day preceding each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date), the Special Servicer shall withdraw from the applicable REO Account and remit to the Master Servicer, which shall deposit into the Collection Account (or the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account, as applicable), the aggregate of all amounts received in respect of each REO Property during the most recently ended Collection Period, net of (i) any withdrawals made out of such amounts pursuant to the preceding sentence and (ii) Net Investment Earnings on amounts on deposit in the applicable REO Account; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may retain in such REO Account, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, such portion of such balance as may be necessary to maintain a reasonable reserve for repairs, replacements, leasing, management and tenant improvements and other related expenses for the related REO Property. In addition, on the later of the date that is (x) on or prior to each Determination Date or (y) two (2) Business Days after such amounts are received and properly identified and determined to be available (or with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, on the Business Day preceding each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date), the Special Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer with a written accounting of amounts remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, as applicable, on such date. The Master Servicer shall apply all such amounts as instructed by the Special Servicer on the day the Master Servicer receives the written accounting as provided in the previous sentence.

(d)               The Special Servicer shall keep and maintain separate records, on a property-by-property basis, for the purpose of accounting for all deposits to, and withdrawals from, the applicable REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(b) or Section 3.14(c).

Section 3.15        Management of REO Property. (a) If title to any REO Property is acquired, the Special Servicer shall manage, consent, protect, operate and lease such REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holders, and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) solely for the purpose of its timely disposition and sale in a manner that does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by the Trust or any Serviced Companion Noteholder of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or result in an Adverse REMIC Event. Subject to the foregoing, however, the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority to do any and all things in connection therewith as are in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of each Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder(s)) and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) all as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loan, as the case may be) (as determined by the Special Servicer in its reasonable judgment in accordance with the Servicing Standard). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, REO Property with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is excluded for all purposes of this Section 3.15. Subject to this Section 3.15, the Special Servicer may allow the Trust or any commercial mortgage securitization that holds any Serviced Companion Loan to earn “net income

-224-

from foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(d) of the Code if it determines that earning such income is in the best interests of Certificateholders and, if applicable, any related Companion Holder(s) on a net after-tax basis as compared with net leasing such REO Property or operating such REO Property on a different basis. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis (and in no event later than one (1) Business Day following receipt of such properly identified funds) in the applicable REO Account all revenues received by it with respect to each REO Property and the related REO Loan, and shall withdraw from the applicable REO Account, to the extent of amounts on deposit therein with respect to such REO Property, funds necessary for the proper operation, management, leasing and maintenance of such REO Property, including, without limitation:

(i)                              all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property;

(ii)                           all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon;

(iii)                        any ground rents in respect of such REO Property, if applicable; and

(iv)                         all costs and expenses necessary to maintain and lease such REO Property.

To the extent that amounts on deposit in the applicable REO Account in respect of any REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above with respect to such REO Property, the Master Servicer (subject to receiving notice from the Special Servicer in accordance with the procedures set forth elsewhere in this Agreement) shall advance from its own funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes unless (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and (in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan, and prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event) the Directing Holder) such Advances would, if made, constitute Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advances.

(b)               Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not:

(i)                              permit the Trust to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;

(ii)                           permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;

(iii)                        authorize or permit any construction on any REO Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than 10% of the construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default on the related Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or

-225-

(iv)                Directly Operate, or allow any other Person, other than an Independent Contractor, to Directly Operate, any REO Property on any date more than ninety (90) days after its acquisition date;

unless, in any such case, the Special Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance) to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held for the benefit of the Trust, in which case the Special Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall contract with any Independent Contractor for the operation and management of any REO Property within ninety (90) days of the acquisition date thereof, provided that:

(i)                        the terms and conditions of any such contract may not be inconsistent herewith and shall reflect an agreement reached at arm’s length;

(ii)                     the fees of such Independent Contractor (which shall be an expense of the Trust) shall be reasonable and customary in light of the nature and locality of the Mortgaged Property;

(iii)                  any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor (A) pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property, including, without limitation, those listed in subsection (a) hereof, and (B) remit all related revenues collected (net of its fees and such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer upon receipt;

(iv)                   none of the provisions of this Section 3.15(c) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and obligations hereunder with respect to the operation and management of any such REO Property; and

(v)                       the Special Servicer shall be obligated to manage and supervise such Independent Contractor in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

The Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Special Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(d)               When and as necessary, the Special Servicer shall send to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer a statement prepared by the Special Servicer setting forth the amount of net income or net loss, as determined for federal income tax purposes, resulting from the operation and management of a trade or business on, the furnishing or rendering of a non-customary service to the tenants of, or the receipt of any other amount not constituting Rents from Real Property in respect of, any REO Property in accordance with Sections 3.15(a) and 3.15(b).

-226-

Section 3.16        Sale of Defaulted Loans and REO Properties.  (a) (i) Within thirty (30) days after a Defaulted Loan has become a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall order (but shall not be required to have received) an Appraisal and within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Appraisal shall determine the fair value of such Defaulted Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard; provided, however, that if the Special Servicer is then in the process of obtaining an Appraisal with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Special Servicer shall make its fair value determination as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any event within thirty (30) days) after its receipt of such an Appraisal. The Special Servicer may, from time to time, adjust its fair value determination based upon changed circumstances, new information and other relevant factors, in each instance in accordance with a review of such circumstances and new information in accordance with the Servicing Standard; provided that the Special Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer in writing of the initial fair value determination and any adjustment to its fair value determination.

(ii)                       If any Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion Loan subject to a Co-Lender Agreement is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or to the extent otherwise required pursuant to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement, then the Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan) or the Master Servicer (with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall promptly notify in writing the other, any related Companion Holder and any related mezzanine lender, as applicable, of any events requiring notice under the Co-Lender Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof. Thereafter, any related Companion Holder and related mezzanine lender, as applicable, will, notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, have the option to purchase the related Mortgage Loan and cure defaults relating thereto as and to the extent set forth in the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(iii)                    If any Mortgage Loan not subject to a Co-Lender Agreement becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, or if the related Companion Holder or related mezzanine lender, as applicable, for any such Mortgage Loan subject to a Co-Lender Agreement has not previously exercised the option to purchase the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the previous paragraph, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to solicit offers for each Defaulted Loan on behalf of the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan in such manner as will be reasonably likely to maximize the value of the Defaulted Loan on a net present value basis, if and when the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that no satisfactory arrangements (including by way of a discounted pay-off) can be made for collection of delinquent payments thereon and such a sale would be in the best economic interests of the Certificateholders or, in the case of a Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, Certificateholders and any holder of a related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan holder constituted a single lender, taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related Companion Loan) and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder. In the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, under certain limited circumstances permitted under the related Co-Lender Agreement, to the extent that such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is not sold together with the Non-Serviced Companion Loan by the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, the Special Servicer will be entitled to sell (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan, (i) with the consent of the Directing Holder,

-227-

if no Control Termination Event is continuing and (ii) after consulting with the Risk Retention Consultation Parties pursuant to Section 6.08) such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan if it determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such action would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders, the Special Servicer is required to give the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, any related Companion Holder and (other than in respect of any applicable Excluded Loan) the Directing Holder and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, in which case the Special Servicer is required to accept the highest offer received from any person for such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan in an amount at least equal to the Purchase Price or, at its option, if it has received no offer at least equal to the Purchase Price therefor, purchase such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan at such Purchase Price.

(iv)                   (A) In the case of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan as to which a default is continuing, in the absence of any offer at least equal to the Purchase Price pursuant to clause (iii) above (or purchase by the Special Servicer for such price), the Special Servicer shall, subject to subclause (B) below, accept the highest offer received from any Person that is determined by the Special Servicer to be a fair price for such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person. If the highest offeror is an Interested Person, the Trustee, subject to any additional conditions in an applicable Co-Lender Agreement, (based upon updated Appraisals ordered by the Special Servicer and received by the Trustee (or ordered by the Trustee if the Special Servicer or any of its Affiliates is an Interested Person)) shall determine the fair price; provided, however, that no offer from an Interested Person will constitute a fair price unless (A) it is the highest offer received and (B) if the offer is less than the applicable Purchase Price, at least two other offers are received from independent third parties, and any such determination by the Trustee shall be binding upon all parties. The Trustee shall act in a commercially reasonable manner in making such determination. In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any such Defaulted Loan, the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with this Agreement within the preceding 9-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. Except as provided in the following paragraph, the cost of any Appraisal will be covered by, and will be reimbursable as, a Property Protection Advance by the Master Servicer. If the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least 5 years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all Appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be paid in advance of any such determination, from the offering Interested Person and the Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense

-228-

shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person. Neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(B)              The Special Servicer will not be obligated to accept the highest offer if the Special Servicer determines (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan, in consultation with the Directing Holder (unless a Consultation Termination Event exists), the Risk Retention Consultation Parties subject to the limitations on consultation set forth in Section 6.08 and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder), in accordance with the Servicing Standard (and subject to the requirements of any related Co-Lender Agreement), that the rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, and any holder of a related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan holder constituted a single lender, taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related Companion Loan) and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder. In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer if it determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard (and subject to the requirements of any related Co-Lender Agreement), that the acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, and any holder of a related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan holder constituted a single lender, taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related Companion Loan) and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations, or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable); provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to sell all Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall have no obligation to make any fair value determination, to the extent required to do so pursuant to this Section 3.16, on the basis of anything other than the related Appraisal.

(v)                        Unless and until any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan is sold pursuant to this Section 3.16(a), the Special Servicer shall pursue such other resolution strategies with respect to such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, workout and foreclosure, as the Special Servicer may deem appropriate, consistent with the Asset Status Report and the Servicing Standard and the REMIC Provisions.

(b)               (i) (A) The Special Servicer may purchase any REO Property at the Purchase Price therefor (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such purchase shall be a purchase

-229-

of the entire REO Property, including the portion relating to the related Companion Loan). The Special Servicer may also offer to sell to any Person any REO Property (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such sale shall be a sale of the entire REO Property, including the portion relating to the related Companion Loan), if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that such a sale would be in the best economic interest of the Trust and the related Companion Holders. The Special Servicer shall give the Trustee, the Master Servicer, each Companion Holder, the Certificate Administrator and, in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan and prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Holder and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties, not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice of the Purchase Price and its intention to (i) purchase any REO Property at the Purchase Price therefor or (ii) sell any REO Property, in which case the Special Servicer shall accept the highest offer received from any Person for any REO Property in an amount at least equal to the Purchase Price therefor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, and subject to the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer, an Affiliate of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Special Servicer, or an employee of either of them may act as broker in connection with the sale of any REO Property and may retain from the proceeds of such sale a brokerage commission that does not exceed the commission that would have been earned by an independent broker pursuant to a brokerage agreement entered into at arm’s length.

(B)              In the absence of any such offer as set forth in subclause (A) above, the Special Servicer shall, subject to subclause (C) below, accept the highest offer for such REO Property received from any Person that is determined to be a fair price (1) by the Special Servicer, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, or (2) by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested Person; provided, however, that no offer from an Interested Person will constitute a fair price unless (A) it is the highest offer received and (B) if the offer is less than the applicable Purchase Price, at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any REO Property pursuant hereto.

(C)              The Special Servicer shall not be obligated by either of the foregoing paragraphs or otherwise to accept the highest offer if the Special Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder, in either case, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Serviced Companion Loans). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer if it determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder, in either case, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Serviced Companion Loans) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations, or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable); provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer.

-230-

(D)             In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any REO Property, the Trustee shall obtain and may conclusively rely on the opinion of an Independent appraiser or other Independent expert in real estate matters retained by the Trustee in connection with making such determination. The reasonable cost of such Independent appraiser or other Independent expert shall be an expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser. The reasonable fees and costs of all Appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person and the Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person. In determining whether any offer constitutes a fair price for any REO Property, the Special Servicer or the Trustee (or, if applicable, such appraiser) shall take into account, and any appraiser or other expert in real estate matters shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the physical condition of such REO Property, the state of the local economy and the Trust’s obligation to comply with REMIC Provisions.

(ii)                     Subject to the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trust and the related Companion Holders, in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any REO Property, including the collection of all amounts payable in connection therewith. A sale of any REO Property shall be without recourse to, or representation or warranty by, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trust (except that any contract of sale and assignment and conveyance documents may contain customary warranties of title, so long as the only recourse for breach thereof is to the Trust) and, if consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer nor the Trustee shall have any liability to the Trust or any Certificateholder or related Companion Holder (if applicable) with respect to the purchase price therefor accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.

(c)               Any sale of a Defaulted Loan or any REO Property shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC Provisions or authoritative interpretations thereof made or issued subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other consideration).

(d)               With respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement and this Agreement, if the related Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan becomes a defaulted loan, and if the Special Servicer determines to sell the related Mortgage Loan that has become a Defaulted Loan in accordance with this Section 3.16, then the Special Servicer shall sell the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan together with such Mortgage Loan as one whole loan and shall require that all offers be submitted to the Special

-231-

Servicer in writing. To the extent a determination is required to be made hereunder as to whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Serviced Whole Loan, such determination shall be made by the Trustee if the offeror is an Interested Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer will not be permitted to sell the related Mortgage Loan together with the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) if it becomes a defaulted Whole Loan without the written consent of the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (provided that such consent is not required if the holder of the Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan is the Mortgagor or an Affiliate of the Mortgagor) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan: (a) at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell such Serviced Whole Loan; (b) at least ten (10) days prior to the permitted sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for such Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File reasonably requested by the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan that are material to the sale price of the Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Controlling Class Representative and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale. The holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (or its representative) will be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of such Whole Loan; however, the related Mortgagor and its agents and Affiliates shall not be permitted to submit an offer at such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the holder of the related Companion Loan may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this paragraph with respect to the related Whole Loan. If the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least 5 years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage Loan. The Trustee shall act in a commercially reasonable manner in making such determination. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all Appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be paid in advance of any such determination by the Interested Person and the Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person.

(e)               (i) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, pursuant to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement, the holder of the related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan for each applicable Serviced AB Whole Loan will have the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, as applicable. Such right of the holder of the Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan shall be given priority over any provision described in this Section 3.16 as and to the extent set forth in the related Co-Lender Agreement. If the related Mortgage Loan or related REO Property is purchased by the holder of such Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or otherwise ceases to be

-232-

subject to this Agreement, the related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan will no longer be subject to this Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement, any sale of a Serviced AB Whole Loan that is a Defaulted Loan or Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.16 (other than in connection with the purchase of the applicable Serviced AB Whole Loan by the related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan) shall not include any related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan. As a result, any reference in this Section 3.16 to the sale, or determination of fair value, of a Serviced AB Whole Loan that is a Defaulted Loan or Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (other than in connection with the purchase of the applicable Serviced AB Whole Loan by the related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan) shall be deemed to exclude any related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan.

(ii)               Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, any mezzanine lender will have the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property, as applicable, and cure defaults relating thereto, as and to the extent set forth in the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(f)                Unless otherwise provided in a Co-Lender Agreement the sale of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.16 will be on a servicing released basis.

(g)               In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has the right to purchase any Companion Loan on behalf of the Trust pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall exercise such right.

Section 3.17        Additional Obligations of Master Servicer and Special Servicer. (a) The Master Servicer shall deliver all Compensating Interest Payments (other than the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan) to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on each Master Servicer Remittance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Master Servicer shall deliver the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan to the Companion Paying Agent for deposit in the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account on each Master Servicer Remittance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor.

(b)                      The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to each Companion Holder any reports or notices required to be delivered to such Companion Holder pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(c)                        Upon the determination that a previously made Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, to the extent that the reimbursement thereof would exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on the Mortgage Loans, deposited in the Collection Account and available for distribution on the next Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, each at its own option and in its sole discretion, as applicable, instead of obtaining reimbursement for the remaining amount of such Nonrecoverable Advance pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(v) immediately, as an accommodation may elect to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement for such portion of the Nonrecoverable Advance during the one month collection period ending on the then-current Determination Date, for successive one-month periods for a total period not to exceed twelve (12) months (provided that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan

-233-

other than an applicable Excluded Loan, any such deferral exceeding six (6) months shall require, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the consent of the Directing Holder), and any election to so defer or not to defer shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes such an election at its sole option and in its sole discretion to defer reimbursement with respect to all or a portion of a Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon), then such Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon) or portion thereof shall continue to be fully reimbursable in the subsequent collection period (subject, again, to the same sole option to defer; it is acknowledged that, in such a subsequent period, such Nonrecoverable Advance shall again be payable first from principal collections as described above prior to payment from other collections). In connection with a potential election by the Master Servicer or the Trustee to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof during the one month collection period ending on the related Determination Date for any Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall further be authorized to wait for principal collections on the Mortgage Loans to be received until the end of such collection period before making its determination of whether to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof; provided, however, that if, at any time the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, elects, in its sole discretion, not to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement or otherwise determines that the reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance during a one-month collection period will exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections deposited in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall use its reasonable efforts to give the 17g-5 Information Provider fifteen (15) days’ notice of such determination for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), unless extraordinary circumstances make such notice impractical, and thereafter shall deliver such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider as soon as practical thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, failure to give notice as required by the preceding sentence shall in no way affect the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s election whether to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement as described in this Section 3.17(c). Nothing herein shall give the Master Servicer or the Trustee the right to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance to the extent of any principal collections then available in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(v).

The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to limit any liability that may otherwise be imposed on such Person for any failure by such Person to comply with the conditions to making such an election under this section or to comply with the terms of this section and the other provisions of this Agreement that apply once such an election, if any, has been made; provided, however, that the fact that a decision to recover such Nonrecoverable Advances over time, or not to do so, benefits some Classes of Certificateholders to the detriment of other Classes of Certificateholders shall not, with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard and/or with respect to the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), constitute a violation of any fiduciary duty to Certificateholders or any contractual obligation hereunder. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion, that its ability to fully recover the Nonrecoverable Advances has been compromised, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from all amounts in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date (deemed first from principal and then interest). Any such election by any such party to refrain from

-234-

reimbursing itself or obtaining reimbursement for any Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof with respect to any one or more collection periods shall not limit the accrual of interest at the Reimbursement Rate on such Nonrecoverable Advance for the period prior to the actual reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance. The Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, agreement to defer reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advances as set forth above is an accommodation to the Certificateholders and shall not be construed as an obligation on the part of the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, or a right of the Certificateholders. Nothing herein shall be deemed to create in the Certificateholders a right to prior payment of distributions over the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, right to reimbursement for Advances (deferred or otherwise) and accrued interest thereon. In all events, the decision to defer reimbursement or to seek immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and none of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the other parties to this Agreement shall have any liability to one another or to any of the Certificateholders or any of the Companion Holders for any such election that such party makes as contemplated by this section or for any losses, damages or other adverse economic or other effects that may arise from such an election.

With respect to any modification or amendment of any Co-Lender Agreement related to a Serviced Whole Loan (to the extent received), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as applicable, shall provide to the 17g-5 Information Provider a copy of any such modification or amendment, which the 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly post on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

(d)         With respect to any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), if the related loan documents permit the lender to (but do not require the lender to), at its option, prior to an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), apply amounts held in any reserve account as a prepayment or hold such amounts in a reserve account, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may not apply such amounts as a prepayment, and will instead continue to hold such amounts in the applicable reserve account, unless not applying those amounts as a prepayment would be a violation of the Servicing Standard. Such amount may be used, if permitted under the loan documents, to defease the loan, or may be used to prepay the Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), or for other purpose consistent with the Servicing Standard and the loan documents, upon a subsequent default.

Section 3.18        Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents. (a) Except as set forth in Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b), this Section 3.18(a), Section 3.18(d), Section 3.18(h), Section 3.18(i) and Section 6.08, but subject to any other conditions set forth thereunder, (including, without limitation, the Special Servicer’s consent rights pursuant to this subsection (a) with respect to any modification, waiver or amendment that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision) (i) the Special Servicer will be responsible for processing waivers, modifications, amendments and consents with respect to (a) any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and (b) any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, subject to the rights of the related Companion Holder, to advise or consult with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, with respect to, or to consent to, a modification, waiver or amendment, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement) with respect to which the matter involves a Special Servicer Major Decision, and (ii) the Master Servicer will be responsible for processing waivers,

-235-

modifications, amendments and consents with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and does not involve a Special Servicer Major Decision; provided that if such modification, waiver, amendment or consent is a Master Servicer Major Decision, the Master Servicer shall obtain the consent of, or consult with, the Directing Holder and the Operating Advisor as and to the extent provided in Section 6.08. Further, the Master Servicer shall not modify, waive or amend the terms of a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and/or Companion Loan (that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision) without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer (it being understood that the Master Servicer (if the Master Servicer is processing and recommending approval of such request) will in accordance with the Servicing Standard provide the Special Servicer with notice of any request for such modification, waiver or amendment, the Master Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis, and all information in the Master Servicer’s possession that may be reasonably requested by the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent); provided that such consent shall be deemed given (unless earlier objected to by the Special Servicer) within ten (10) Business Days of the Special Servicer’s receipt from the Master Servicer of the Master Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis with respect to such modification, waiver or amendment and all information in the Master Servicer’s possession reasonably requested by the Special Servicer in order to make an informed decision with respect to such modification, waiver or amendment; and provided, further, that no extension entered into pursuant to this Section 3.18(a) shall extend the Maturity Date beyond the earlier of (i) five (5) years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and (ii) in the case of a Mortgage Loan secured solely or primarily by a leasehold estate and not also the related fee interest, the date twenty (20) years or, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard giving due consideration to the remaining term of the Ground Lease, ten (10) years, prior to the expiration of such leasehold estate. If such extension would extend the Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan for more than twelve (12) months from and after the original Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan and such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable, prior to any such extension, the party processing such action shall (1) provide the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Operating Advisor, each related Other Master Servicer, each related Other Trustee, the Directing Holder ((i) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties, with an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if not required or permitted to be paid by the Mortgagor, to be paid as an expense of the Trust in accordance with Section 3.11(d)) that such extension would not constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and (2) subject to the Servicing Standard, (A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to an applicable Excluded Loan, obtain the consent of the Directing Holder, (B) during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to a Consultation Termination Event and other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan, consult with the Directing Holder pursuant to Section 6.08 and (C) consult with the Risk Retention Consultation Parties pursuant to Section 6.08. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the rights of the related Companion Holder to advise the Master Servicer with respect to, or consent to, such modification, waiver or amendment pursuant to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement, and subject to the Special

-236-

Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to this subsection (a) if any such modification, waiver or amendment constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision, the Master Servicer, with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans, without the consent of or consultation with the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Directing Holder, may modify or amend the terms of any Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan in order to (i) cure any ambiguity or mistake therein or (ii) correct or supplement any provisions therein which may be inconsistent with any other provisions therein or correct any error; provided that, if the Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and/or related Serviced Companion Loan is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable, such modification or amendment would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

In addition, subject to the next sentence, with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer, prior to taking any action with respect to any Special Servicer Major Decision (or making a determination not to take action with respect to a Special Servicer Major Decision), shall refer any request with respect to such Special Servicer Major Decision to the Special Servicer and the Special Servicer shall process the request directly or, if mutually agreed to by the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer and subject to any fees described herein, the Master Servicer shall (subject to the consent (or deemed consent) of the Special Servicer) process such request. If the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall, with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (subject to the consent (or deemed consent) of the Special Servicer) process a request with respect to a Special Servicer Major Decision and the Master Servicer is recommending approval of such request, the Master Servicer shall prepare and submit its written analysis and recommendation to the Special Servicer with all information in the possession of the Master Servicer that the Special Servicer may reasonably request in order to withhold or grant its consent, and in all cases the Special Servicer shall be entitled (subject to any applicable consultation rights of the Operating Advisor or any applicable consent or consultation rights of the Controlling Class Representative or any applicable consultation rights of any related Companion Holder or its representative (as applicable)) to approve or disapprove any modification, waiver, amendment or other action that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision; provided that such consent shall be deemed given (unless earlier objected to by the Special Servicer) within fifteen (15) Business Days of the Special Servicer’s receipt from the Master Servicer of the Master Servicer’s written analysis and recommendation with respect to such request and all information in the Master Servicer’s possession reasonably requested by the Special Servicer in order to make an informed decision with respect to such request. In addition, the Master Servicer shall provide the Special Servicer with any notice that it receives relating to a default by the Mortgagor under a ground lease where the collateral for the Mortgage Loan is the ground lease, and the Special Servicer will determine in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether to cure any Mortgagor defaults relating to ground leases.

Subject to Section 6.08, applicable law and the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan documents, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall permit the substitution of any Mortgaged Property (or any portion thereof) for one or more other parcels of real property at any time the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan is not in default pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan documents or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable unless

-237-

(i) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, obtains Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (and delivers such Rating Agency Confirmation to the Directing Holder and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties, if permitted by the applicable Rating Agency) and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, obtains a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and (ii) such substitution would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) or otherwise cause an Adverse REMIC Event (and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may obtain and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor if not prohibited by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents, and if so prohibited, at the expense of the Trust) with respect thereto).

Upon receiving a request for any matter described in this Section 3.18(a) that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision, the Master Servicer shall forward such request to the Special Servicer and, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer will process such request with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms and conditions reasonably agreed to by the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, including the Special Servicer’s consent, the Special Servicer shall process such request and the Master Servicer shall have no further obligation with respect to such request or the related Special Servicer Major Decision.

(b)               If, and only if, the Special Servicer determines that a modification, waiver or amendment (including, without limitation, the forgiveness or deferral of interest or principal or the substitution of collateral pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and/or related Serviced Companion Loan or otherwise, the release of collateral or the pledge of additional collateral) of the terms of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (or any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan with respect to which such determination derives from the Special Servicer’s consideration of a Special Servicer Major Decision that is subject to its processing and/or consent rights pursuant to Section 3.18(a) of this Agreement) with respect to which a payment default or other material default has occurred or a payment default or other material default is, in the Special Servicer’s judgment, reasonably foreseeable (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Special Servicer), is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a net present value basis (the relevant discounting to be performed at the related Mortgage Rate) to the Trust and, if applicable, the Companion Holders, as the holders of the related Serviced Companion Loan, than liquidation of such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, then the Special Servicer may, but is not required to, agree to a modification, waiver or amendment of such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, subject to (w) the provisions of this Section 3.18(b) and Section 3.18(c), (x) with respect to any Major Decision, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than any applicable Excluded Loan, for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing, the approval of the Directing Holder (or during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to a Consultation Termination Event, upon consultation with the Directing Holder), and consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Parties as provided in (and to the extent required by) Section 6.08 (except that, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, unless the Directing Holder is the Controlling Class Representative, the Risk Retention Consultation Parties shall have no consultation rights regarding the matter); (y) with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, subject to any rights of the holder of the related Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan to consent to such modification, waiver or amendment; and (z)

additionally, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the rights of the related Serviced Companion Noteholder or with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) with mezzanine debt, the rights of the related mezzanine lender, if any, to advise or consult with the Special Servicer with respect to, or consent to, such modification, waiver or amendment, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, as applicable; provided that in the case of any release or substitution of collateral (other than a defeasance), the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel that such release or substitution would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) or otherwise cause an Adverse REMIC Event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan related to the Controlling Class Representative (regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions that it is processing and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with (i) the release of a Mortgaged Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or any portion of such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage or (ii) the taking of a Mortgaged Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or any portion of such Mortgaged Property by exercise of the power of eminent domain or condemnation, if the related Mortgage Loan documents require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to calculate (or to approve the calculation of the related Mortgagor of) the LTV Ratio of the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties or the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, for purposes of REMIC qualification of the related Mortgage Loan, then such calculation shall, unless then permitted by the REMIC Provisions, exclude the value of personal property and going concern value, if any, as determined by an appropriate third party.

If, following any such release or taking, the LTV Ratio as calculated is greater than 125%, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall require payment of principal by a “qualified amount” as determined under Revenue Procedure 2010-30 or successor provisions, unless the related Mortgagor provides an Opinion of Counsel that if such amount is not paid, the related Mortgage Loan will not fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that causes a defective obligation to be treated as a qualified mortgage).

The Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to the extent possible to cause each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan to fully amortize prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and shall not agree to a modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan if such modification, waiver or amendment would (1) extend the Maturity Date of any such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan to a date occurring later than the earlier of (a) five (5) years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and (b) if such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan is secured solely or primarily by a leasehold estate and not also the related fee interest, the date occurring twenty (20) years or, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard giving due

-239-

consideration to the remaining term of the Ground Lease and (A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, with the consent of the Directing Holder pursuant to Section 6.08 and (B) to the extent such modification, waiver or amendment constitutes a Major Decision, after consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Parties pursuant to Section 6.08 (in each case, other than with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is an applicable Excluded Loan), ten (10) years prior to the expiration of such leasehold estate (including any options to extend such leasehold estate exercisable unilaterally by the related Mortgagor), or (2) provide for the deferral of interest unless interest accrues on the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan generally at the related Mortgage Rate.

(c)               Any provision of this Section 3.18 to the contrary notwithstanding, except when a Mortgage Loan and/or Companion Loan is in default or default with respect thereto is reasonably foreseeable, no fee described in this Section 3.18 shall be collected by any Master Servicer or Special Servicer from a Mortgagor (or on behalf of the Mortgagor) in conjunction with any consent or any modification, waiver or amendment of a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable (unless the amount thereof is specified in the related Mortgage Note) if the collection of such fee would cause such consent, modification, waiver or amendment to be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Note within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

(d)               To the extent consistent with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the first sentence of Section 3.18(a), and Section 6.08), the Master Servicer (as provided in Section 3.08(a) and Section 3.08(b) and subject to the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to Section 3.18 or Section 3.20(a) if any such waiver, modification or amendment constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision) or the Special Servicer may, consistent with the Servicing Standard, agree to any waiver, modification or amendment of a Mortgage Loan and/or Serviced Companion Loan that is not in default or as to which default is not reasonably foreseeable only if the contemplated waiver, modification or amendment (i) will not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b), (ii) cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (iii) result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund or either Trust REMIC. In making this determination, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may obtain and rely upon (and shall provide to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator if obtained) an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor or such other Person requesting such modification or, if such expense cannot be collected from the related Mortgagor or such other Person, to be paid out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a); provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall use its reasonable efforts to collect such fee from the Mortgagor or such other Person to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer may waive the payment of any Yield Maintenance Charge or the requirement that any prepayment of a Mortgage Loan be made on a Due Date, or if not made on a Due Date, be accompanied by all interest that would be due on the next Due Date with respect to any Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(e)               Subject to Section 3.18(c), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each may, as a condition to its granting any request by a Mortgagor for consent, modification (including extensions), waiver or indulgence or any other matter or thing, the granting of which

(f)                All modifications (including extensions), waivers and amendments of the Mortgage Loans and Companion Loans entered into pursuant to this Section 3.18 shall be in writing, signed by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and the related Mortgagor (and by any guarantor of the related Mortgage Loan, if such guarantor’s signature is required by the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard).

(g)               With respect to any modification, waiver or amendment for which it is responsible for processing pursuant to Section 3.18 hereof, the Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Holder (other than (i) following the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) and with respect to an applicable Excluded Loan), the Risk Retention Consultation Parties (other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan), the applicable Companion Holder, the Operating Advisor and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) in writing of any modification, waiver or amendment (in each case, after it is finalized and executed) of any term of any Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan that is modified, waived or amended and the date thereof. With respect to any modification, waiver or amendment (in each case, after it is finalized and executed) for which it is responsible for processing pursuant to Section 3.18 hereof, the Master Servicer shall provide written notice of any such modification, waiver or amendment to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Directing Holder (other than following the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and with respect to an applicable Excluded Loan), the Risk Retention Consultation Parties (other than with respect to an applicable Excluded Loan), the applicable Companion Holder and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)). The party responsible for delivering notice shall deliver to the Custodian with a copy to the Master Servicer (if such notice is being delivered by the Special Servicer) for deposit in the related Mortgage File, an original counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver or amendment, promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) following the execution thereof, with a copy to the applicable Companion Holder, if any. Following receipt of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, delivery of the aforesaid modification, waiver or amendment to the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Administrator shall forward a copy thereof to each Holder of a Certificate (other than the Class R Certificates) upon request. With respect to the processing of any modification, waiver or consent related to any Mortgagor incurring additional secured debt or mezzanine debt, the Special Servicer (if the Special Servicer processes such modification, waiver or consent pursuant to Section 3.18(a)) or the Master Servicer (if the Master Servicer processes such modification, waiver or consent pursuant to Section 3.18(a)) shall, on or before the later of (i) 3:00 p.m. on the related Master Servicer Remittance Date and (ii) five (5) Business Days immediately following the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, obtaining actual knowledge of the incurrence of such

The notice contemplated in the preceding sentence shall set forth, to the extent the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as the case may be, has the requisite information or can reasonably obtain such information, (1) the amount of additional secured debt that was incurred in the related Collection Period, (2) the total debt service coverage ratio calculated on the basis of such Mortgage Loan and additional secured debt, and (3) the aggregate LTV Ratio calculated on the basis of such Mortgage Loan and additional secured debt. In the event that either (i) the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package is amended to include such information set forth above, in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and the Master Servicer confirms with the Certificate Administrator that such amended CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package enables the Certificate Administrator to include such information on Form 10-D in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Administrator, or (ii) the Trust is no longer subject to the Exchange Act, the additional report in the form of Exhibit KK shall no longer be required hereunder. From time to time, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and Certificate Administrator may agree on a different delivery time and format for the information set forth in this paragraph.

(h)               (i) Subject to the consent rights and processes set forth in Section 6.08 with respect to Major Decisions, the Master Servicer shall process all defeasances of Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and Serviced Companion Loan in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents, and shall be entitled to any defeasance fees paid relating thereto (provided that for the avoidance of doubt, any such defeasance fee shall not include the Special Servicer’s portion of any Modification Fees or waiver fees in connection with a defeasance that the Special Servicer is entitled to under this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not permit (or, with regard to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, take any act in furtherance of) the substitution of any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan unless such defeasance complies with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) and the Master Servicer has received (i) replacement collateral consisting of government securities within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), which satisfies the requirements of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents, in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the related Mortgage Loan (or defeased portion thereof) when due, (ii) a certificate of an Independent certified public accountant to the effect that such substituted property will provide cash flows sufficient to meet all payments of interest and principal (including payments at maturity) on such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan in compliance with the requirements of the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, (iii) one or more Opinions of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor) to the effect that the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, will have a first priority perfected security interest in such substituted Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that, to the extent consistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the related Mortgagor shall pay the cost of any such opinion as a condition to granting such defeasance, (iv) to the extent consistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Mortgagor shall establish a single purpose entity to act as a successor Mortgagor, if so required by the Rating Agencies, (v) to the extent permissible under the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents the Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to require the related Mortgagor to pay all costs of such defeasance,

-242-

including but not limited to the cost of maintaining any successor Mortgagor, and (vi) to the extent permissible under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall obtain, at the expense of the related Mortgagor, Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmations from each Companion Loan Rating Agency; provided, further, however, that no such confirmation from any Rating Agency or Companion Loan Rating Agency shall be required to the extent that the Master Servicer has delivered a defeasance certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit U hereto for any Mortgage Loan that (together with any Mortgage Loans cross-collateralized with such Mortgage Loans) is: (i) a Mortgage Loan with a Cut-off Date Principal Balance less than $35,000,000, (ii) a Mortgage Loan that represents less than 5% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of all Mortgage Loans, and (iii) a Mortgage Loan that is not one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans by Stated Principal Balance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that requiring the Mortgagor to pay for the items specified in clauses (ii), (iv) and (v) in the preceding sentence would be inconsistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents, such reasonable costs shall be paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller as and to the extent set forth in the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

(i)                 Notwithstanding anything herein or in the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, to the contrary, the Master Servicer may permit the substitution of “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) for any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable (or any portion thereof), in lieu of the defeasance collateral specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents or Serviced Whole Loan documents, as applicable; provided that such substitution is consistent with the Servicing Standard and the Master Servicer (subject to the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to Section 3.20(a) with respect to any such action that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision) reasonably determines that allowing their use would not cause a default or event of default to become reasonably foreseeable and the Master Servicer receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents or otherwise as a Trust Fund expense) to the effect that such use would not be and would not constitute a “significant modification” of such Mortgage Loan, or Companion Loan pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and would not otherwise constitute an Adverse REMIC Event with respect to any Trust REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust; and provided, further, that the requirements set forth in Section 3.18(h) (including receipt of any Rating Agency Confirmation) are satisfied; and provided, further, that such securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, or the Master Servicer shall obtain Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmations from each Companion Loan Rating Agency.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans identified on Exhibit VV that are subject to defeasance, the related Mortgage Loan Seller has transferred to a third party or has retained on behalf of itself or an Affiliate the right to establish or designate the successor Mortgagor and/or to purchase or cause to be purchased the related defeasance collateral (any such right or obligation, the “Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations”). In the event the

-243-

Master Servicer receives notice of a defeasance request with respect to a Mortgage Loan, which such Mortgage Loan provides for Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations in the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall provide, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such notice, written notice of such defeasance request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Until such time as the related Mortgage Loan Seller provides the Master Servicer with written notice to the contrary, the notice of a defeasance of a Mortgage Loan with Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations shall be delivered to the related Mortgage Loan Seller at its address for notices set forth in Section 13.05 below. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that is subject to defeasance, if the successor Mortgagor is not designated or formed by the related Mortgage Loan Seller or any Affiliate or successor thereto, the successor Mortgagor shall be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

(j)                 If required under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents or if otherwise consistent with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Defeasance Accounts”), which shall be Eligible Accounts, into which all payments received by the Master Servicer from any defeasance collateral substituted for any Mortgaged Property shall be deposited and retained, and shall administer such Defeasance Accounts in accordance with the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Master Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Defeasance Account for a period in excess of ninety (90) days, unless such amounts are reinvested by the Master Servicer in “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii). To the extent not required or permitted to be placed in a separate account, the Master Servicer shall deposit all payments received by it from defeasance collateral substituted for any Mortgaged Property into the Collection Account and treat any such payments as payments made on the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan in advance of its Due Date in accordance with clause (a)(i) of the definition of “Aggregate Available Funds” and not as a prepayment of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Collection Account for a period in excess of 365 days (or 366 days in the case of a leap year).

(k)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall, unless it has received Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmations from each Companion Loan Rating Agency (the cost of which shall be paid by the related Mortgagor, if so allowed by the terms of the related loan documents and otherwise paid out of general collections) grant or accept any consent, approval or direction regarding the termination of the related property manager or the designation of any replacement property manager, with respect to any Mortgaged Property that secures a Mortgage Loan that (i) is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans a by Stated Principal Balance or (ii) has an unpaid principal balance that is at least equal to five percent (5%) of the then aggregate principal balance of all Mortgage Loans or $35,000,000.

(l)                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in connection with any modification, waiver, consent or amendment in connection with any defeasance transaction contemplated in the second sentence of subsection(h) above, the Special Servicer shall not approve any such modification, waiver or amendment or consent thereto without first having

-244-

received a copy of an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Master Servicer addressed to the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer that such modification, waiver, consent or amendment will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

(m)             Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall enter into any modification, waiver, amendment, work-out, consent or approval with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, restructure any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, or restructure any Mortgagor equity (in each case, including, without limitation, by way of the application of credits, discounts, forgiveness or otherwise) in a manner that would have the effect of placing amounts payable as compensation, or otherwise reimbursable, to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer in a higher priority than that which is provided in the allocation and payment priorities set forth in Section 3.02(b) hereof or in the related Co-Lender Agreement.

Section 3.19        Transfer of Servicing Between Master Servicer and Special Servicer; Recordkeeping; Asset Status Report. (a) Upon determining that a Special Servicing Transfer Event has occurred with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall promptly give notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) the Directing Holder thereof, and the Master Servicer shall deliver the related Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Special Servicer and concurrently provide a copy of such Servicing File, exclusive of all Privileged Communications, to the Operating Advisor. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information, documents and records (including the names and contact information of the Companion Holders, records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan, either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise available to the Master Servicer without undue burden or expense, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its functions hereunder with respect thereto. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the occurrence of each related Special Servicing Transfer Event (or, in the case of clauses (viii), (ix) or (x) of the definition of Special Servicing Transfer Event, within five (5) Business Days of receiving notice from the Special Servicer of such Special Servicing Transfer Event when the Special Servicer makes the determination) and in any event shall continue to act as Master Servicer and administrator of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan until the Special Servicer has commenced the servicing of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, any related Serviced Companion Noteholder, and ((i) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event or (ii) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) the Directing Holder, a copy of the notice of such Special Servicing Transfer Event provided by the Master Servicer to the Special Servicer, or by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer, pursuant to this Section 3.19. Prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to each Controlling Class Certificateholder a copy of the notice of such Special Servicing Transfer Event provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.19.

-245-

Upon determining that a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (other than an REO Loan) has become current and has remained current for three consecutive Periodic Payments (provided that (i) no additional Special Servicing Transfer Event is foreseeable in the reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, and (ii) for such purposes taking into account any modification or amendment of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan), and that no other Special Servicing Transfer Event is continuing with respect thereto, the Special Servicer shall promptly give notice thereof to the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (unless with respect to a Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred) and ((i) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) the Directing Holder and shall return the related Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Master Servicer (or copies thereof if copies only were delivered to the Special Servicer) and upon giving such notice, and returning such Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer’s obligation to service such Corrected Loan shall terminate and the obligations of the Master Servicer to service and administer such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan shall recommence.

(b)               In servicing any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion Loans, the Special Servicer will provide to the Custodian originals of documents included within the definition of “Mortgage File” for inclusion in the related Mortgage File to the extent within its possession (with a copy of each such original to the Master Servicer), and provide the Master Servicer with copies of any additional related Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan information including correspondence with the related Mortgagor.

(c)               Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.12(c), the Master Servicer shall maintain ongoing payment records with respect to each of the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans, Serviced Companion Loans and REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and shall provide the Special Servicer with any information in its possession with respect to such records to enable the Special Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement; provided that this statement shall not be construed to require the Master Servicer to produce any additional reports.

(d)               Upon the earlier of (i) sixty (60) days after a Special Servicing Transfer Event for a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan, and (ii) prior to taking action with respect to any Major Decision (or making a determination not to take action with respect to a Major Decision) with respect to a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format a report (the “Asset Status Report”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan and related Companion Loan, if applicable, and the related Mortgaged Property (the “Initial Delivery Date”) and shall prepare one or more additional Asset Status Reports with respect to any such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan subsequent to the issuance of a Final Asset Status Report to the extent that during the course of the resolution of such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan changes in strategy reflected in the initial Asset Status Report (or subsequent Final Asset Status Report) are necessary to reflect the then current recommendation as to how the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan might be returned to performing status or otherwise liquidated in accordance with the Servicing Standard (each such report a “Subsequent Asset Status Report”). Each Asset Status Report shall be delivered in electronic form to the Master Servicer, the Directing Holder (but only with respect to any

(iii)                           the most current rent roll and income or operating statement available for the related Mortgaged Property;

(iv)                          (A) the Special Servicer’s recommendations on how such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan might be returned to performing status (including the modification of a monetary term, and any workout, restructure or debt forgiveness) and returned to the Master Servicer for regular servicing or otherwise realized upon (including any proposed sale of a Defaulted Loan or REO Property), (B) a description of any such proposed or taken actions, and (C) the alternative courses of action that were or are being considered by the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed or taken actions;

(v)                             the status of any foreclosure actions or other proceedings undertaken with respect to the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, any proposed workouts and the status of any negotiations with respect to such workouts, and an assessment of the likelihood of additional defaults under the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan;

-247-

(viii)                    an analysis of whether or not taking such proposed action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a present value basis than not taking such action, setting forth (x) the basis on which the Special Servicer made such determination and (y) the net present value calculation and all related assumptions;

(ix)                            the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property (and a copy of the last obtained Appraisal of such Mortgaged Property) together with a description of any adjustments to the valuation of such Mortgaged Property made by the Special Servicer together with an explanation of those adjustments; and

A summary of each Final Asset Status Report shall be provided to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee.

If within ten (10) Business Days of receiving an Asset Status Report, the Directing Holder does not disapprove such Asset Status Report in writing or if the Special Servicer makes a determination, in accordance with the Servicing Standard that the disapproval by the Directing Holder (communicated to the Special Servicer within ten (10) Business Days) is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders (taken as a collective whole), the Special Servicer shall implement the recommended action as outlined in such Asset Status Report; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may not take any action that is contrary to applicable law, the Servicing Standard or the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents. If, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Directing Holder disapproves such Asset Status Report within ten (10) Business Days of receipt and the Special Servicer has not made the affirmative determination described above, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report and deliver a new Asset Status Report as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after such disapproval, to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Holder (prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event), the Operating Advisor and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)). With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report as described above in this Section 3.19(c) until the Directing Holder shall fail to disapprove such revised Asset Status Report in writing within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such revised Asset Status Report or until the Special Servicer makes a determination, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that the disapproval is not in the best interests of the Certificateholders (taken as a collective whole); provided that, if the Directing Holder has not approved the Asset Status Report for a period of sixty (60) Business Days following the first submission of an Asset Status Report, the Special Servicer may act upon the most recently submitted form of Asset Status Report, if consistent with the applicable Servicing Standard; provided, however, that such Asset Status Report does not, and is not intended to be, a substitute for the approvals that are specifically required pursuant to Section 6.08. The procedures described in this paragraph are collectively referred to as the “Directing Holder Approval Process”. The Special Servicer may, from time to time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered and implement such report; provided that such report shall have

-248-

been prepared, reviewed and not rejected pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.19(c). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan related to the Controlling Class Representative (regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the related Excluded Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with an Asset Status Report for an applicable Excluded Loan which includes a Major Decisions that it is processing and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

No direction or disapproval of the Directing Holder hereunder or under a related Co-Lender Agreement or failure of the Directing Holder to consent to or approve (including any deemed consents or approvals) any request of the Special Servicer, shall (a) require or cause the Special Servicer to violate the terms of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, including the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to maintain the REMIC status of each Trust REMIC, or (b) result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions, or (c) expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or their respective officers, directors, members, employees or agents to any claim, suit or liability or (d) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, the Trustee’s or the Master Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

For so long as no Operating Advisor Consultation Event is continuing, the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver each Final Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor after the completion of the Directing Holder Approval Process. In addition, the Special Servicer shall notify the Operating Advisor of whether any Asset Status Report delivered to the Operating Advisor is a Final Asset Status Report, which notification may be satisfied by (i) delivery of an Asset Status Report that is either signed by the Directing Holder or that otherwise includes an indication that such Asset Status Report is deemed approved due to the passage of any required consent or consultation time period or (ii) such other method as reasonably agreed to by the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer.

For so long as an Operating Advisor Consultation Event is continuing, the Operating Advisor shall provide comments to the Special Servicer in respect of the Asset Status Report, if any, within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) receipt of such Asset Status Report or (ii) receipt of such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor related thereto, and propose possible alternative courses of action to the extent it determines such alternatives to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders (including any Certificateholders that are Holders of the Controlling Class Certificates) and the Companion Holders, as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and Companion Holders constituted a single lender. The Special Servicer shall consider such alternative courses of action, if any, and any other feedback provided by the Operating Advisor (and if no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, the Directing Holder) in connection with the Special Servicer’s preparation of any Asset Status Report that is provided while an Operating Advisor Consultation Event is continuing. The Special Servicer may revise the Asset Status Report as it deems necessary to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor (and if no Consultation Termination Event has

-249-

occurred, the Directing Holder), to the extent the Special Servicer determines that the Operating Advisor’s and/or Controlling Class Representative’s input and/or recommendations are consistent with the Servicing Standard and in the best interest of the Certificateholders as a collective whole (or, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the best interest of the Certificateholders and the holder of the related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of such Companion Loan)). If the Special Servicer determines to revise any Asset Status Report to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor or the Directing Holder, the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Operating Advisor and the Directing Holder the revised Asset Status Report (until a Final Asset Status Report is issued). The procedures described in this paragraph are collectively referred to as the “ASR Consultation Process.”

During the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Holder shall have no right to consent to any Asset Status Report under this Section 3.19. During the continuance of a Control Termination Event but for so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, the Directing Holder (except with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) shall be entitled to consult on a non-binding basis with the Special Servicer (in person or remotely via electronic, telephonic or other mutually agreeable communication) and propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback in respect of any Asset Status Report. In addition, during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall consult on a non-binding basis with the Special Servicer (in person or remotely via electronic, telephonic or other mutually agreeable communication) and propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback in respect of any Asset Status Report. After the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan), the Directing Holder (other than in its capacity as a Certificateholder) shall have no right to receive any Asset Status Report or otherwise consult with the Special Servicer with respect to Asset Status Reports and the Special Servicer shall send the Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor and shall only be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor with respect to any Asset Status Report as described above. The Special Servicer may choose to revise the Asset Status Report as it deems reasonably necessary in accordance with the Servicing Standard to take into account any input and/or recommendations of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Holder during the applicable periods described above, but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Holder.

The Special Servicer shall implement the Final Asset Status Report.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, the Special Servicer shall prepare an Asset Status Report for any Serviced AB Whole Loan, upon it becoming a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement and for so long as no AB Control Appraisal Period is continuing, the Controlling Class Representative will have no approval rights over any such Asset Status Report, and the consent or approval rights with respect to such Asset Status Report shall be as set forth in the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(e)               (i) Upon receiving notice of the occurrence of the events described in clause (v) and (vii) of the definition of Special Servicing Transfer Event (without regard to the 60-day or 30-day period, respectively, set forth therein), the Master Servicer shall with reasonable

-250-

promptness give notice thereof, and shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information relating to the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to negotiate with the related Mortgagor. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the occurrence of each such event.

(ii)               During the continuance of a Control Termination Event, upon receiving notice of the occurrence of an event described in clause (iv) or (x) of the definition of Special Servicing Transfer Event (without regard to the 60-day or 30-day period, respectively, set forth therein), the Master Servicer shall deliver notice thereof to the Operating Advisor at the same time such notice is provided to the Special Servicer pursuant to clause (i) above.

(f)                Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, no later than two (2) Business Days following the establishment of a Final Asset Status Report with respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (other than any applicable Excluded Loan), the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format to the Directing Holder a draft notice that will include a draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report (which briefly summarizes such Final Asset Status Report, but shall not include any Privileged Information) (and shall deliver each Asset Status Report with respect to an AB Mortgage Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period (to the extent approved by the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder), to the Directing Holder). With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan, if, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such draft summary, the Directing Holder approves of, or does not disapprove of such draft summary, then the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format such notice and summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b). If the Directing Holder affirmatively disapproves of such summary in writing, then within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such disapproval, the Special Servicer shall revise the summary and deliver such new summary to the Directing Holder until the Directing Holder approves such draft summary; provided, however, that if the Directing Holder has not approved of the draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report within twenty (20) Business Days of receipt of the initial draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report, then the most recent draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report delivered by the Special Servicer prior to such 20th Business Day shall be deemed to be the final summary of the Final Asset Status Report; provided, further, however, that if at any time the Special Servicer determines that any affirmative disapproval of such draft summary by the Directing Holder is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders pursuant to the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format such notice and summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) notwithstanding such disapproval. The Special Servicer shall promptly deliver (but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days following its completion) a copy of each Final Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor. The Special Servicer shall prepare a summary of any Final Asset Status Report related to any Serviced AB Whole Loan for which the related holder of an AB Subordinate Companion Loan is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period, which Final Asset Status Report has been approved or deemed approved by the holder of the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement (to the extent such Co-Lender Agreement

-251-

requires such approval or deemed approval), and deliver in electronic format notice of such final Asset Status Report and the summary of such Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b).

(g)               No provision of this Section 3.19 shall require the Special Servicer to take or refrain from taking any action because of any proposal, objection or comment by the Operating Advisor or, during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Holder, or a recommendation of the Operating Advisor or, during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Holder.

Section 3.20        Sub-Servicing Agreements. (a) The Master Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements to provide for the performance by third parties of any or all of its respective obligations hereunder; provided that the Sub-Servicing Agreement as amended or modified: (i) is consistent with this Agreement in all material respects and requires the Sub-Servicer to comply with all of the applicable conditions of this Agreement; (ii) provides that if the Master Servicer, shall for any reason no longer act in such capacity hereunder (including, without limitation, by reason of a Servicer Termination Event), the Trustee or any successor master servicer shall thereupon assume all of the rights and, except to the extent they arose prior to the date of assumption, obligations of such party under such agreement, or, alternatively, may act in accordance with Section 7.02 hereof under the circumstances described therein (subject to Section 3.20(g) hereof); (iii) provides that the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holder (if applicable)) and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) shall be a third party beneficiary under such Sub-Servicing Agreement, but that (except to the extent the Trustee or its designee assumes the obligations of such party thereunder as contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (ii)) none of the Trust, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, as applicable, any successor master servicer or any Certificateholder (or the related Companion Holder, if applicable) shall have any duties under such Sub-Servicing Agreement or any liabilities arising therefrom; (iv) permits any purchaser of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement with respect to such purchased Mortgage Loan at its option and without penalty; provided, however, that the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreements may only be terminated by the Trustee or its designees as contemplated by Section 3.20(g) hereof and in such additional manner and by such other Persons as is provided in such Sub-Servicing Agreement; (v) does not permit the Sub-Servicer any direct rights of indemnification that may be satisfied out of assets of the Trust; (vi) does not permit the Sub-Servicer to modify any Mortgage Loan unless and to the extent the Master Servicer is permitted hereunder to modify such Mortgage Loan; (vii) with respect to any Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into after the Closing Date, if such Sub-Servicer is a Servicing Function Participant or an Additional Servicer, such Sub-Servicer, at the time the related Sub-Servicing Agreement is entered into, is not a Prohibited Party and (viii) provides that the Sub-Servicer shall be in default under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement and such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be terminated (following the expiration of any applicable grace period) if the Sub-Servicer fails (A) to deliver by the due date any Exchange Act reporting items required to be delivered to the Master Servicer under Article XI or under the Sub-Servicing Agreement or to the master servicer under any other pooling and servicing agreement that the Depositor is a party to, (B) to perform in any material respect any of its covenants or obligations contained in the Sub-Servicing Agreement regarding creating, obtaining or delivering any Exchange Act reporting items required for any

-252-

party to this Agreement to perform its obligations under Article XI or under the Exchange Act reporting items required under any other pooling and servicing agreement that the Depositor is a party to or (C) to perform other covenants and obligations set forth in such Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms of such Sub-Servicing Agreement. Any successor master servicer hereunder shall, upon becoming successor master servicer be assigned and may assume any Sub-Servicing Agreements from the predecessor Master Servicer (subject to Section 3.20(g) hereof). In addition, each Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Master Servicer may but need not provide that the obligations of the Sub-Servicer thereunder may terminate with respect to any Mortgage Loan serviced thereunder at the time such Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that the Sub-Servicing Agreement may provide (if the Sub-Servicing Agreement provides for Advances by the Sub-Servicer, although it need not so provide) that the Sub-Servicer will continue to make all Advances and calculations and prepare all reports required under the Sub-Servicing Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and continue to collect its Primary Servicing Fees as if no Special Servicing Transfer Event had occurred and with respect to REO Properties (and the related REO Loans) as if no REO Acquisition had occurred and to render such incidental services with respect to such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for in such Sub-Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments thereto and modifications thereof, entered into by it, in each case promptly upon its execution and delivery of such documents. References in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer include actions taken or to be taken by a Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer; and, in connection therewith, all amounts advanced by any Sub-Servicer (if the Sub-Servicing Agreement provides for Advances by the Sub-Servicer, although it need not so provide) to satisfy the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder to make Advances shall be deemed to have been advanced by the Master Servicer out of its own funds and, accordingly, in such event, such Advances shall be recoverable by such Sub-Servicer in the same manner and out of the same funds as if such Sub-Servicer were the Master Servicer, and, for so long as they are outstanding, such Advances shall accrue interest in accordance with Section 3.03(d), such interest to be allocable between the Master Servicer and such Sub-Servicer as may be provided (if at all) pursuant to the terms of the Sub-Servicing Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have received any payment when a Sub-Servicer retained by it receives such payment. The Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Depositor (and the Special Servicer shall notify the Operating Advisor) in writing promptly of the appointment by it of any Sub-Servicer, except that the Master Servicer need not provide such notice as to the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreements.

(b)               Each Sub-Servicer shall be authorized to transact business in the state or states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to the extent necessary to ensure the enforceability of the related Mortgage Loans or the compliance with its obligations under the Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement.

(c)               As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer for the benefit of the Trustee, the Certificateholders, shall (at no expense to the Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Trust) monitor the performance and enforce the obligations of each Sub-Servicer under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, except that the Master Servicer shall be required only to use reasonable efforts to cause any Initial Sub-Servicer to comply with the

-253-

requirements of Article XI hereof. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements in accordance with their respective terms and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as is in accordance with the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer shall have the right to remove a Sub-Servicer retained by it (other than any Sub-Servicer retained by it at the request of a Mortgage Loan Seller, which is only removable for cause) at any time it considers removal to be in the best interests of Certificateholders in accordance with the terms of the related Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(d)               In the event the Trustee or its designee becomes successor master servicer and assumes the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under any Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer, at its expense, shall deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to such Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans and, if applicable, the Companion Loans then being serviced thereunder and an accounting of amounts collected and held on behalf of it thereunder, and otherwise use reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub-Servicing Agreement to the assuming party.

(e)               Notwithstanding the provisions of any Sub-Servicing Agreement and this Section 3.20, except to the extent provided in Article XI with respect to the obligations of any Sub-Servicer that is an Initial Sub-Servicer, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and responsible to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, holders of the Companion Loans serviced hereunder, the Certificateholders for the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans for which it is responsible, and the Master Servicer shall pay the fees of any Sub-Servicer thereunder as and when due from its own funds. In no event shall the Trust bear any termination fee required to be paid to any Sub-Servicer as a result of such Sub-Servicer’s termination under any Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(f)                The Trustee, upon the request of the Master Servicer, shall furnish to any Sub-Servicer any documents necessary or appropriate to enable such Sub-Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under any Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(g)               Each Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide that, in the event the Trustee or any other Person becomes successor master servicer, the Trustee or such successor master servicer shall have the right to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement with or without cause and without a fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other contrary provision in this Agreement, the Trustee and any successor master servicer shall assume each Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement and (i) the Initial Sub-Servicer’s rights and obligations under the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement shall expressly survive a termination of the Master Servicer’s servicing rights under this Agreement; provided that the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement has not been terminated in accordance with its provisions; (ii) any successor master servicer, including, without limitation, the Trustee (if it assumes the servicing obligations of the Master Servicer) shall be deemed to automatically assume and agree to the then-current Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement without further action upon becoming the successor master servicer and (iii) this Agreement may not be modified in any manner which would increase the obligations or limit the rights of the Initial

-254-

Sub-Servicer hereunder and/or under the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Initial Sub-Servicer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(h)               With respect to a Mortgage Loan subject to a Sub-Servicing Agreement with the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer shall, upon request (such request to be made reasonably in advance as appropriate to the circumstances surrounding such request) of the related Sub-Servicer, reasonably cooperate in delivering reports and information, including remittance information, and affording access to information to the related Sub-Servicer that would be required to be delivered or afforded, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof.

(i)                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Sub-Servicer shall be permitted under any Sub-Servicing Agreement to make material servicing decisions, such as loan modifications or determinations as to the manner or timing of enforcing remedies under the Mortgage Loan documents without the consent of the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer’s consent may also be required for certain other servicing decisions as provided in the related Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(j)                 Notwithstanding anything herein, each of the initial Master Servicer and the initial Special Servicer may delegate certain of its duties and obligations hereunder to an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable. Such delegation shall not be considered a sub-servicing agreement hereunder, and the requirements and obligations set forth herein applicable to sub-servicing agreements, sub-servicers or Servicing Function Participants shall not be applicable to such arrangement. Notwithstanding any such delegation, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall remain obligated and liable for the performance of their respective obligations and duties under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if each alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans as required hereby.

Section 3.21        Interest Reserve Account. (a) On the Master Servicer Remittance Date occurring in each February and in any January that occurs in a year that is not a leap year (in each case, unless the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator, in respect of the Actual/360 Mortgage Loans, shall deposit into the Interest Reserve Account, an amount equal to one (1) day’s interest on the Stated Principal Balance of the Actual/360 Mortgage Loans as of the Due Date occurring in the month preceding the month in which Master Servicer Remittance Date occurs at the related Net Mortgage Rate, to the extent a full Periodic Payment or P&I Advance is made in respect thereof (all amounts so deposited in any consecutive February and January, “Withheld Amounts”).

(b)               On each Master Servicer Remittance Date occurring in March (or February, if the related Distribution Date is the final Distribution Date), the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw, from the Interest Reserve Account an amount equal to the Withheld Amounts from the preceding January (if applicable) and February, if any, and deposit such amount into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account.

Section 3.22        Directing Holder and Operating Advisor Contact with Master Servicer and Special Servicer. Within a reasonable time upon request from the Directing Holder

-255-

or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and no more often than on a monthly basis, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, without charge, make a knowledgeable Servicing Officer via telephone available to verbally answer questions from (a) ((i) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) the Directing Holder and (b) the Operating Advisor (with respect to the Special Servicer only), regarding the performance and servicing of the Mortgage Loans and/or REO Properties for which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is responsible.

Section 3.23        Controlling Class Certificateholders, the Controlling Class Representative and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties; Certain Rights and Powers of the Directing Holder and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties. (a) Each Controlling Class Certificateholder is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and to notify the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor of the Transfer of any Certificate of a Controlling Class by delivering a notice to each such Person substantially in the form of Exhibit MM attached hereto, the selection of a Controlling Class Representative or the resignation or removal thereof. The Controlling Class Representative is hereby deemed to have agreed by virtue of its purchase of a Certificate to notify the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor when such Certificateholder is appointed Controlling Class Representative and when it is removed or resigns. To the extent there is only one Controlling Class Certificateholder and it is also the Special Servicer, it shall be the Controlling Class Representative.

On the Closing Date, the initial Controlling Class Representative shall execute a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1G to this Agreement. Upon the resignation or removal of the existing Controlling Class Representative, any successor Controlling Class Representative shall execute and deliver to the parties to this Agreement a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1G to this Agreement prior to being recognized as the new Controlling Class Representative. On the Closing Date, each initial Risk Retention Consultation Party shall execute a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1H to this Agreement. Upon the resignation or removal of any existing Risk Retention Consultation Party, any successor Risk Retention Consultation Party shall execute and deliver to the parties to this Agreement a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1H to this Agreement prior to being recognized as the new Risk Retention Consultation Party.

Once a Controlling Class Representative has been selected, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner, if applicable) shall be entitled to rely on such selection unless the Controlling Class Certificateholders entitled to appoint the Controlling Class Representative, by Certificate Balance, or such Controlling Class Representative shall have notified the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Controlling Class Certificateholder, in writing, of the resignation of such Controlling Class Representative or the selection of a new Controlling Class Representative. Upon the resignation of a Controlling Class Representative, the Certificate Administrator shall request the Controlling Class Certificateholders to select a new Controlling Class Representative. In the event that (i) the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor receives

-256-

written notice from a majority of the Controlling Class Certificateholders that a Controlling Class Representative is no longer designated and (ii) the Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class (or a representative thereof) becomes the Controlling Class Representative pursuant to the proviso of the definition of “Controlling Class Representative”, then the Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class (or its representative) shall provide its name and address to the Certificate Administrator and notify the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor that it is the new Controlling Class Representative; provided that the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to rely on the written notification provided by the purported Controlling Class Certificateholder that owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class without independently verifying that such Controlling Class Certificateholder actually owns the largest aggregate Certificate Balance of the Controlling Class. Additionally, once a Risk Retention Consultation Party has been selected, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and each other Certificateholder (or Certificate Owner, if applicable) shall be entitled to rely on such selection unless a VRR Interest Owner shall have notified the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Operating Advisor, in writing, of the selection of a new Risk Retention Consultation Party.

(b)               Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity of the Controlling Class Certificateholder and the Controlling Class Representative and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties.

(c)               In the event that no Directing Holder has been appointed or identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has attempted to obtain such information from the Certificate Administrator and no such entity has been identified to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, then until such time as the new Directing Holder is identified, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have no duty to consult with, provide notice to, or seek the approval or consent of any such Directing Holder as the case may be.

(d)               Upon request, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to the Depositor, Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and, for so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, the Controlling Class Representative, a list of each Controlling Class Certificateholder as reflected in the Certificate Registrar, including names and addresses at the expense of the Trust. In addition to the foregoing, within five (5) Business Days of receiving notice of the selection of a new Controlling Class Representative or Risk Retention Consultation Party or the existence of a new Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) LD III SUB XVII LLC shall be the initial Controlling Class Representative and shall remain so until a successor is appointed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or until a Consultation Termination Event occurs and is continuing and (ii) DBNY and CREFI shall be the initial Risk Retention Consultation Parties and shall remain so until a successor is appointed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

-257-

Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the preceding sentence with respect to the identity of the Controlling Class Representative and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties.

(e)               If to the extent the Certificate Administrator determines that a Class of Book-Entry Certificates is the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the related Certificateholders of such Class (through the Depository) of the Class becoming the Controlling Class.

(f)                Each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Certificates, that: (i) the Directing Holder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Certificates; (ii) the Directing Holder may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class; (iii) the Directing Holder does not have any liability or duties to the Certificateholders other than the Controlling Class; (iv) the Directing Holder may take actions that favor interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class over the interests of the other Certificateholders; and (v) the Directing Holder shall have no liability whatsoever (other than to a Controlling Class Certificateholder, to the extent the Controlling Class Representative is the Directing Holder) for having so acted, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Directing Holder or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal of the Directing Holder for having so acted.

Each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Certificates, that: (i) each Risk Retention Consultation Party may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of one or more Classes of Certificates; (ii) each Risk Retention Consultation Party may act solely in the interest of a VRR Interest Owner; (iii) each Risk Retention Consultation Party does not have any liability or duties to the Certificateholders; (iv) each Risk Retention Consultation Party may take actions that favor interests of the Certificateholders of one or more classes over the interests of the Certificateholders of one or more other Classes of Certificates; and (v) each Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have no liability whatsoever (other than to the related VRR Interest Owners) for having so acted as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against a Risk Retention Consultation Party or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal of a Risk Retention Consultation Party for having so acted.

(g)               All requirements of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to provide notices, reports, statements or other information (including the access to information on a website) to the Directing Holder contained in this Agreement shall also apply to each Companion Holder with respect to information relating to the related Serviced AB Whole Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable; provided, however, that nothing in this subsection (g) shall in any way eliminate the obligation to deliver any information required to be delivered under the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(h)               Until it receives notice to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to rely on the most recent notification with respect to the identity and contact information

-258-

of the Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Directing Holder, the Risk Retention Consultation Parties and any AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder.

(i)                 With respect to a Serviced Whole Loan and any approval and consent rights in this Agreement with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall exercise such rights in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(j)                 The Certificate Registrar shall determine which Class of Control Eligible Certificates is the then-current Controlling Class within two (2) Business Days of a request from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator, Trustee, or any Certificateholder and provide such information to the requesting party.

(k)               [Reserved].

(l)                 Promptly upon its determination of a change in the Controlling Class, the Certificate Administrator shall (i) include on its statement made available pursuant to Section 4.02(a) of this Agreement the identity of the new Controlling Class and (ii) provide to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor notice of such event and the identity and contact information of the new Controlling Class Certificateholder (the cost of obtaining such information from DTC being an expense of the Trust). The Certificate Administrator shall notify the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer within ten (10) Business Days of the existence or cessation of (i) any Control Termination Event, (ii) any Operating Advisor Consultation Event or (iii) any Consultation Termination Event. Upon the Certificate Administrator’s determination that a Control Termination Event, an Operating Advisor Consultation Event or a Consultation Termination Event has occurred or is terminated, the Certificate Administrator shall, within ten (10) Business Days, post a “special notice” on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to this provision.

In the event that a Control Termination Event has occurred due to a reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class F Certificates (taking into account the application of any Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of such Class in accordance with Section 4.05(a) hereof) to less than 25% of the Original Certificate Balance thereof, such special notice shall state “A Control Termination Event has occurred due to the reduction of the Certificate Balance of the Class F Certificates to less than 25% of the Original Certificate Balance thereof.”

In the event that a Consultation Termination Event has occurred due to the reduction of each Class of Control Eligible Certificates below 25% of its Original Certificate Balance, in each case without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts, such special notice shall state: “A Consultation Termination Event has occurred because no Class of Control Eligible Certificates exists where such Class’s aggregate Certificate Balance is at least equal to 25% of the Original Certificate Balance of that Class, in each case without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts.”

With respect to any applicable Excluded Loan, the Directing Holder (or, if the Directing Holder is the Controlling Class Representative, any Controlling Class Certificateholder)

-259-

will not have any consent or consultation rights with respect to the servicing of such Excluded Loan and a Control Termination Event and Consultation Termination Event will be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Excluded Loan.

Section 3.24        Co-Lender Agreements. (a) Each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer acknowledges and agrees that each Serviced Whole Loan being serviced under this Agreement and each Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt is subject to the terms and provisions of the related Co-Lender Agreement and each agrees to service each such Serviced Whole Loan and each Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement and this Agreement, including, without limitation, effecting distributions and allocating reimbursement of expenses in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement and, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement shall govern. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the terms and provisions of any Co-Lender Agreement do not affect the right of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor to receive Servicing Fees, Trustee Fees, Certificate Administrator Fees or Operating Advisor Fees that are payable hereunder from amounts allocable to the related Mortgage Loan pursuant to such Co-Lender Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contrary in this Agreement, each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer agrees not to take any action with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan or a Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt or the related Mortgaged Property without the prior consent of the related Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, to the extent that the related Co-Lender Agreement provides that such Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, is required or permitted to consent to such action. Each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer acknowledges and agrees that each Companion Holder and each mezzanine lender or its respective designee has the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement to the extent provided for therein. All parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that any AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder will have the right to replace the Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Serviced AB Whole Loan and shall be entitled to exercise all approval rights of the Directing Holder regarding any Asset Status Report in respect of the Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, without regard to the occurrence of any Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event with respect to the related Serviced AB Whole Loan, to the extent provided for herein and in the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(b)               Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability for any cost, claim or damage that arises from any entitlement in favor of a Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender under the related Co-Lender Agreement or conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of such Co-Lender Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of any Co-Lender Agreement that may otherwise require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to abide by any instruction or direction of a Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to comply with any instruction or direction the compliance with which requires an Advance that constitutes or would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. In no event shall any expense arising from compliance with a Co-Lender Agreement constitute an expense to be borne by the Master Servicer or the Special

-260-

Servicer for its own account without reimbursement. In no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer be required to consult with or obtain the consent of any Companion Holder or a mezzanine lender unless such Companion Holder or mezzanine lender has delivered notice of its identity and contact information to each of the parties to this Agreement (upon which notice each of the parties to this Agreement shall be conclusively entitled to rely). As of the Closing Date, the contact information for the Companion Holders and mezzanine lenders is as set forth in the related Co-Lender Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, as applicable, or as otherwise set forth in Section 13.05. In no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, be required to consult with or obtain the consent of a new Controlling Class Representative or consult with a new Risk Retention Consultation Party or a new Controlling Class Certificateholder unless the Certificate Administrator has delivered notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as required under Section 3.23(d) or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, have actual knowledge of the identity and contact information of a new Controlling Class Representative or a new Controlling Class Certificateholder or a new Risk Retention Consultation Party.

(c)               No direction or disapproval of the Companion Holders or any mezzanine lender shall (a) require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate the terms of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan, applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, including the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to maintain the REMIC status of each Trust REMIC, (b) result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions or (c) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, Trustee’s, the Certificate Administrator’s or the Master Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

(d)               With respect to any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, notwithstanding any rights the Operating Advisor or the Controlling Class Representative or a Risk Retention Consultation Party hereunder may have to consult with respect to any action or other matter with respect to the servicing of such Companion Loan, to the extent the related Co-Lender Agreement provides that such right is exercisable by the related Companion Holder or is exercisable in conjunction with any related Companion Holder, the Controlling Class Representative or a Risk Retention Consultation Party shall not be permitted to exercise such right or, to the extent provided in the related Co-Lender Agreement, shall be required to exercise such right in conjunction with the related Companion Holder, as applicable (except to the extent that the Controlling Class Representative or a Risk Retention Consultation Party is the related Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder). Additionally, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall consult, seek the approval or obtain the consent of the holder of any Serviced Companion Loan with respect to any matters with respect to the servicing of such Companion Loan to the extent required under related Co-Lender Agreement and shall not take such actions requiring consent of the related Companion Holder without such consent. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall deliver reports and notices to the related Companion Holder as required under the Co-Lender Agreement.

(e)               Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall be required (i) to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Controlling Class

-261-

Certificateholder pursuant to this Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, to the related Companion Holder, within the same time frame it is required to provide to the Controlling Class Certificateholder (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Controlling Class Certificateholder under this Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) to consult with any related Companion Holder on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such related Companion Holder requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to a Serviced Whole Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such related Companion Holder; provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to such related Companion Holder by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Controlling Class Certificateholder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall no longer be obligated to consult with such related Companion Holder, whether or not such related Companion Holder has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless, such Master Servicer or Special Servicer proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the non-binding consultation rights of the related Companion Holder set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, such Master Servicer or Special Servicer may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if such Master Servicer or Special Servicer determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holder. In no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by the related Companion Holder.

(f)                In addition to the consent and non-binding consultation rights of the holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, such Companion Holder shall have the right to attend (in person or telephonically, in the discretion of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be) annual meetings with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer at the offices of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the related Whole Loan are discussed.

(g)               With respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall not modify, waive or amend the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement such that the monthly remittance to the holder of the related Companion Loan is required earlier than two (2) Business Days after receipt by the Master Servicer of properly identified and available funds constituting the related Periodic Payment without the consent of the Master Servicer.

Section 3.25        Rating Agency Confirmation. (a) Notwithstanding the terms of any related Mortgage Loan documents or other provisions of this Agreement, if any action under any Mortgage Loan documents or this Agreement requires Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition

-262-

precedent to such action, if the party (the “RAC Requesting Party”) required to obtain such Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency has made a request to any Rating Agency for such Rating Agency Confirmation and, within ten (10) Business Days of the Rating Agency Confirmation request being posted to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, such Rating Agency has not replied to such request or has responded in a manner that indicates that such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then such RAC Requesting Party shall be required to confirm (through direct communication and not by posting any confirmation on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website) that the applicable Rating Agency has received the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and, if it has not, promptly request the related Rating Agency Confirmation again. The circumstances described in the preceding sentence are referred to in this Agreement as a “RAC No-Response Scenario.” Once the RAC Requesting Party has sent a request for a Rating Agency Confirmation to the 17g-5 Information Provider, such RAC Requesting Party may, but shall not be obligated to, send such request directly to the Rating Agencies in accordance with the procedure and timeframes set forth in Section 13.10(d).

If there is no response to such Rating Agency Confirmation request within five (5) Business Days of such second request in a RAC No-Response Scenario or if such Rating Agency has responded in a manner that indicates such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then (x) with respect to any condition in any Mortgage Loan document requiring such Rating Agency Confirmation or with respect to any other matter under this Agreement relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than as set forth in clause (y) below), the requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) with respect to such Rating Agency and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may then take such action if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, confirms its original determination (made prior to making such request) that taking the action with respect to which it requested the Rating Agency Confirmation would still be consistent with the Servicing Standard, and (y) with respect to a replacement of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, such condition shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) if (i) the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer is rated at least “CMS3” (in the case of the master servicer) or “CSS3” (in the case of the special servicer), if Fitch is the non-responding Rating Agency, (ii) KBRA has not publicly cited servicing concerns of the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer, as applicable, as the sole or material factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status” in contemplation of a ratings downgrade or withdrawal) of securities in any other commercial mortgage-backed securitization transaction serviced by the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer prior to the time of determination, if KBRA is the non-responding Rating Agency or (iii) (a) it has been appointed and currently serves as a master servicer or special servicer, as applicable, on a transaction-level basis on a CMBS transaction currently rated by Moody’s that currently has securities outstanding and (b) it is not a master servicer or special servicer, as applicable, that has been publicly cited by Moody’s as having servicing concerns as the sole or material factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status” in contemplation of a rating downgrade or withdrawal) of securities rated by Moody’s in a CMBS transaction serviced by the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer prior to the time of determination, if Moody’s is the non-responding Rating Agency.

-263-

Any Rating Agency Confirmation request made by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, shall be made in writing, which writing shall contain a cover page indicating the nature of the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and shall contain all back-up material necessary for the Rating Agency to process such request. Such written Rating Agency Confirmation request shall be provided in electronic format to the 17g-5 Information Provider, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such request on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

Promptly following the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s determination to take any action discussed in this Section 3.25(a) following any requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation being deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide electronic written notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider of the action taken for the particular item at such time, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.25, for purposes of the provisions of any Mortgage Loan document relating to defeasance (including without limitation the type of collateral acceptable for use as defeasance collateral) or release or substitution of any collateral, any Rating Agency Confirmation requirement in the Mortgage Loan documents for which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer would have been permitted to waive obtaining or to make a determination with respect to such Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to Section 3.25(a) shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist).

(c)               For all other matters or actions not specifically discussed in Section 3.25(a) above, the applicable RAC Requesting Party shall deliver Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency.

(d)               With respect to any Companion Loan as to which there exists Serviced Companion Loan Securities, if any action relating to the servicing and administration of the related Mortgage Loan, the related Serviced Whole Loan or any related REO Property (including, but not limited to, the replacement of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or a Sub-Servicer) (the “Relevant Action”) requires delivery of a Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action pursuant to this Agreement, then, except as set forth below in this paragraph, such action will also require delivery of a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action from each Companion Loan Rating Agency. Each Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation shall be sought by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee, Certificate Administrator, Controlling Class Representative or applicable Certificateholders, as applicable, depending on whichever such party is seeking the corresponding Rating Agency Confirmation(s) in connection with the Relevant Action. The requirement to obtain a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities will be subject to, and will be deemed not to apply on or deemed to be waived on, as applicable, the same terms and conditions applicable to obtaining Rating Agency Confirmations, as set forth in this Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee, Certificate Administrator, Controlling Class Representative or applicable Certificateholders, as applicable, depending on which is seeking the subject

-264-

Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation, shall forward to one or more of its counterpart (i.e., the master servicer, special servicer, trustee or certificate administrator, if and as applicable), the Rule 17g-5 information provider for the Other Securitization Trust, or such other party or parties (as are agreed to by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Trustee, Certificate Administrator, Controlling Class Representative or applicable Certificateholders, as applicable, and the applicable parties for the related Other Securitization Trust), at the expense of the Other Securitization Trust to the extent not borne by the related Mortgagor, and in such format as the sender and recipient may reasonably agree, (i) the request for such Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation at least two (2) Business Days before it is sent to the applicable Companion Loan Rating Agency, (ii) all materials forwarded to the 17g-5 Information Provider under this Agreement for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in connection with seeking the Rating Agency Confirmation(s) for the applicable Relevant Action at approximately the same time that such materials are forwarded to the 17g-5 Information Provider, and (iii) any other materials that the applicable Companion Loan Rating Agency may reasonably request in connection with such Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation promptly following such request.

Section 3.26        The Operating Advisor. (a) The Operating Advisor shall promptly review (i) the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan when it is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (as provided in Section 3.19(d), Section 3.26 and Section 6.08) and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to Special Servicer Major Decisions relating to the Mortgage Loans when they are not a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and processed by the Special Servicer, (ii) all information made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (iii) each Asset Status Report (after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and Final Asset Status Report delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer; provided, however, that prior to an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall only be required to review Final Asset Status Reports delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall be required to request the delivery of a Final Asset Status Report to the extent the Operating Advisor has actual knowledge of such Final Asset Status Report.

In addition and for the avoidance of doubt, although the Operating Advisor may have certain consultation duties with the Master Servicer with respect to certain Major Decisions processed by the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor will have no obligations or responsibility at any time to review or assess the actions of the Master Servicer for compliance with the Servicing Standard, and the Operating Advisor will not be required to consider such Master Servicer actions in connection with any Operating Advisor Annual Report.

(b)               The Operating Advisor and its Affiliates will be obligated to keep confidential any information appropriately labeled or as which appears on its face to be “Privileged Information” received from the Special Servicer or Directing Holder in connection with the Directing Holder’s exercise of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with any Asset Status Report) or otherwise in connection with this transaction, except under the circumstances described in Section 3.26(g) and subject to any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree requiring the disclosure of such Privileged Information. Subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement related to Privileged

-265-

Information, the Operating Advisor agrees that it shall use information received from the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement solely for purposes of complying with its duties and obligations hereunder.

(c)               (i) Based on the Operating Advisor’s review of any assessment of compliance report, any attestation report, any Major Decision Reporting Package and/or Asset Status Report (in each case, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), any Final Asset Status Report and other reports by the Special Servicer made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on Certificate Administrator’s Website during the prior calendar year, the Operating Advisor shall (if, at an time during the prior calendar year, (i) any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) was a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or (ii) the Operating Advisor was entitled to consult with the Special Servicer with respect to any Major Decision) deliver to the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator (who shall promptly post such report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b)) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (who shall post it to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) within one hundred twenty (120) days of the end of the prior calendar year, an annual report (the “Operating Advisor Annual Report”), substantially in the form of Exhibit V (which form may be modified or altered as to either its organization or content by the Operating Advisor, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement including, without limitation, provisions herein relating to Privileged Information; provided, however, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in the Operating Advisor Annual Report contravene any provision of this Agreement), that (a) sets forth whether the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer is operating in compliance with the Servicing Standard with respect to its performance of its duties under this Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans (and, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, with respect to Special Servicer Major Decisions on non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans in each case processed by the Special Servicer) during the prior calendar year on a “platform-level basis” and (b) identifies (1) which, if any, standards the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, the Special Servicer has failed to comply and (2) any deviations from the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement with respect to the resolution or liquidation of any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Property (other than with respect to any REO Property related to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan); provided, however, that in the event the Special Servicer is replaced, the Operating Advisor Annual Report shall only relate to the Special Servicer that was acting as Special Servicer as of December 31 in the prior calendar year and is continuing in such capacity through the date of such Operating Advisor Annual Report; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall prepare a separate Operating Advisor Annual Report relating to the Excluded Special Servicer and any Excluded Special Servicer Loan(s) serviced by such Excluded Special Servicer. In preparing any Operating Advisor Annual Report, the Operating Advisor shall not be required to (i) report on instances of non-compliance with, or deviations from, the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement that the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, to be immaterial and (ii) provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion. Only as used in connection with the Operating Advisor Annual Report, the term “platform-level basis” refers to the Special Servicer’s performance of its duties with respect to the pool of Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans (and, after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor

-266-

Consultation Event, with respect to Special Servicer Major Decisions on non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and Serviced Companion Loans in each case processed by the Special Servicer) under this Agreement taking into account the Special Servicer’s specific duties under this Agreement as well as the extent to which those duties were performed in accordance with the Servicing Standard, with reasonable consideration by the Operating Advisor of any assessment of compliance report, attestation report, Major Decision Reporting Package, Asset Status Report (during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), Final Asset Status Report and other information, in each case, delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer (other than any communications between the Directing Holder and the Special Servicer that would be Privileged Information) pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, no Operating Advisor Annual Report will be permitted to include an assessment of the Special Servicer’s performance in respect of such Serviced AB Whole Loan during the continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period under the related Co-Lender Agreement. Subject to the restrictions in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.26(d) hereof, each such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall comply with all of the confidentiality requirements described in this Agreement regarding Privileged Information (subject to any permitted exceptions). Such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall be delivered to the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b)) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) with a copy to the Special Servicer; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall be given an opportunity to review the Operating Advisor Annual Report at least five (5) Business Days prior to its delivery to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider. The Operating Advisor shall have no obligation to adopt any comments to the Operating Advisor Annual Report that are provided by the Special Servicer.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (A) the Operating Advisor’s assessment of the Special Servicer’s performance shall be based on the provisions of this Agreement and (B) so long as LNR Partners, LLC is acting as Special Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC shall provide the Operating Advisor reasonable access, at LNR Partners, LLC’s offices during normal business hours, to LNR Partners, LLC’s policies and procedures. The Operating Advisor shall be permitted to review such policies and procedures but is not permitted to retain hard copies and will not be provided with any electronic copies or soft copies. The Operating Advisor shall keep all information contained in the policies and procedures strictly confidential, except (A) the Operating Advisor may disclose such information if (i) such information becomes generally available and known to the public other than as a result of a disclosure directly or indirectly by the Operating Advisor, or (ii) such disclosure is required by applicable law, order, rule or regulation (as demonstrated by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Special Servicer), and (B) the Operating Advisor may disclose a particular portion of the policies and procedures solely when necessary to support specific conclusions concerning allegations of material deviations from the Servicing Standard and the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement (i) in the Operating Advisor Annual Report, or (ii) in connection with a recommendation by the Operating Advisor to replace LNR Partners, LLC as the Special Servicer pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall be permitted to share such information with its Affiliates and any subcontractors of the Operating Advisor to the extent reasonably necessary to perform the Operating Advisor’s obligations under this Agreement and

-267-

provided such Affiliates and subcontractors of the Operating Advisor agree in writing prior to their receipt of such information to be bound by the same confidentiality provisions applicable to the Operating Advisor. The Operating Advisor’s assessment may not take into account (i) the fact that LNR Partners, LLC provided physical access and not via electronic copy to the LNR Partners, LLC written policies and procedures pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and (ii) the waiver or reduction of any Operating Advisor Consulting Fee pursuant to Section 3.26(i) of this Agreement. Nothing set forth herein shall limit or affect the scope of the Operating Advisor’s review in connection with its preparation of the Operating Advisor Annual Report, provided that the Operating Advisor’s access to or reliance upon LNR Partners, LLC’s written policies and procedures shall be subject to the terms of this paragraph. During any period when the Special Servicer is not LNR Partners, LLC or an affiliate of LNR Partners, LLC, the requirements contained in this paragraph shall be null and void.

(ii)               In the event the Operating Advisor’s ability to perform its obligations in respect of the Operating Advisor Annual Report is limited or prohibited due to the failure of a party hereto to timely deliver notice of action and information required to be delivered to the Operating Advisor or because such information is inaccurate or incomplete, the Operating Advisor shall set forth such limitations or prohibitions in the related Operating Advisor Annual Report, and the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from such limitations or prohibitions. The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the accuracy and completeness of any information it is provided without liability for any such reliance hereunder. In the event a lack of access to Privileged Information limits or prohibits the Operating Advisor from performing its duties under this Agreement, the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from its lack of access to Privileged Information.

(d)               For so long as no Operating Advisor Consultation Event is continuing, the Special Servicer shall forward any Appraisal Reduction Amount and net present value calculations used in the Special Servicer’s determination of what course of action to take in connection with the workout or liquidation of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan to the Operating Advisor after such calculations have been finalized. The Operating Advisor shall review such calculations but shall not opine on or take any affirmative action with respect to such Appraisal Reduction Amount calculations and/or net present value calculations (except that if the Operating Advisor discovers a mathematical error contained in such calculations, then the Operating Advisor shall notify the Special Servicer and the Directing Holder of such error).

(e)               (i) After the calculation has been finalized (and if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing prior to the utilization by the Special Servicer) of any of the calculations related to (i) Appraisal Reduction Amounts or (ii) net present value in accordance with Section 1.02(iv), the Special Servicer shall forward such calculations, together with any supporting material or additional information necessary in support thereof (including such additional information that is reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor to confirm the mathematical accuracy of such calculations, but not including any Privileged Information and, in the case of the Appraisal Reduction Amount, only to the extent the Master Servicer has provided such information to the Special Servicer), to the Operating Advisor promptly, but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after preparing such calculations, and the Operating Advisor shall promptly, but no later than five (5) Business Days after receipt of such calculations and any

-268-

supporting or additional materials, recalculate and verify the accuracy of the mathematical calculations and the corresponding application of the non-discretionary portion of the applicable formulas required to be utilized in connection with any such calculation.

(ii)               In connection with this Section 3.26(e), in the event the Operating Advisor does not agree with the mathematical calculations of the Appraisal Reduction Amount (as calculated by the Special Servicer) or net present value or the application of the applicable non-discretionary portions of the formula required to be utilized for such calculation in any material respect, the Operating Advisor and Special Servicer shall consult with each other in order to resolve any material inaccuracy in the mathematical calculations or the application of the non-discretionary portions of the related formula in arriving at those mathematical calculations or any disagreement within five (5) Business Days of delivery of such calculations. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Special Servicer and provide any information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer necessary for the calculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount that is in the Master Servicer’s possession or reasonably obtainable by the Master Servicer. In the event the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer are not able to resolve such inaccuracies or disagreement prior to the end of such five (5) Business Day period, the Operating Advisor shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of such disagreement and the Certificate Administrator shall examine the calculations and supporting materials provided by the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer and determine which calculation is to apply (and shall provide prompt written notice of such determination to the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer). In making such determination, the Certificate Administrator may hire an independent third-party to assist with any such calculation at the expense of the Trust and shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such third party’s determination (provided such third party has been selected with reasonable care by the Certificate Administrator).

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor review will be limited to an after-the-action review of the reports, calculations and material described above (together with any additional information and material reviewed by the Operating Advisor), and, therefore, it shall have no involvement with respect to collateral substitutions, assignments, workouts, modifications, consents, waivers, lockbox management, insurance policies, Mortgagor substitutions, lease changes, additional Mortgagor debt, defeasances, property management changes, releases from escrow, assumptions and other similar actions that the Special Servicer may perform under this Agreement and shall have no obligations at any time with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan.

With respect to the determination of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, or has terminated, the Operating Advisor is entitled to rely solely on its receipt from the Certificate Administrator of notice pursuant to this Agreement (which includes notices posted to the Certificate Administrator’s Website), and, with respect to any obligations of the Operating Advisor that are performed only after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligation to perform any such duties until the receipt of such notice or actual knowledge of the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event.

-269-

(g)               The Operating Advisor and its Affiliates shall keep all information appropriately labeled or as which appears on its face to be “Privileged Information” confidential and shall not, without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and (for so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing) the Directing Holder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Non-Serviced Whole Loan and any applicable Excluded Loan), disclose such information to any other Person (including any Certificateholders which are not then included in the Control Eligible Certificates, other than the Controlling Class Representative), other than (i) to the extent expressly set forth herein, to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information, (ii) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception or (iii) where necessary to support specific findings or conclusions concerning allegations of deviations from the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement (A) in the Operating Advisor Annual Report or (B) in connection with a recommendation by the Operating Advisor to replace the Special Servicer. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Operating Advisor with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and, unless a Consultation Termination Event is continuing, the Directing Holder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any applicable Excluded Loan) other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall be permitted to share Privileged Information with its Affiliates and any subcontractors of the Operating Advisor that agree in writing to be bound by the same confidentiality provisions applicable to the Operating Advisor.

(h)               Subject to the requirements of confidentiality imposed on the Operating Advisor herein (including without limitation in respect of Privileged Information), the Operating Advisor shall respond to Inquiries proposed by Privileged Persons from time to time in accordance with the terms of Section 4.07(a).

(i)                 As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to receive the Operating Advisor Fee on each Master Servicer Remittance Date with respect to each Mortgage Loan (including the Serviced Mortgage Loans and the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans but not any Companion Loan) or each REO Loan. As to each Mortgage Loan and each REO Loan, the Operating Advisor Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Operating Advisor Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on the related Mortgage Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Operating Advisor Fee shall be payable from funds on deposit in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.05 of this Agreement.

The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to reimbursement of any Operating Advisor Expenses provided for pursuant to Section 6.04(a) and/or 6.04(b) hereof, such amounts to be reimbursed from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account as provided by Section 3.05(a). Each successor Operating Advisor shall be required to acknowledge and agree to the terms of the preceding sentence.

-270-

In addition, the Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable to the Operating Advisor with respect to each Major Decision for which the Operating Advisor has consultation obligations hereunder. The Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable from funds on deposit in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.05(a)(ii) of this Agreement, but only to the extent such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee is actually received from the related Mortgagor. When the Operating Advisor has consultation obligations with respect to a Major Decision under this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer processing the Major Decision shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect the applicable Operating Advisor Consulting Fee from the related Mortgagor in connection with such Major Decision (taking into account whether or not such fees are provided for in the related loan agreement), but only to the extent not prohibited by the related Mortgage Loan documents. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, may waive or reduce the amount of any Operating Advisor Consulting Fee payable by the related Mortgagor if it determines that such full or partial waiver is in accordance with the Servicing Standard, but in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer take any enforcement action with respect to the collection of such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee other than requests for collection; provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult, on a non-binding basis, with the Operating Advisor prior to any such waiver or reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligations or consultation rights with respect to: (i) any Non-Serviced Whole Loan or any related REO Property or (ii) with respect to any AB Mortgage Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of both an AB Control Appraisal Period and a Control Termination Event; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall not be entitled to an Operating Advisor Consulting Fee with respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan.

(j)                 Upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Non-Reduced Interests evidencing not less than 15% of the Voting Rights of the Non-Reduced Interests requesting a vote to terminate and replace the Operating Advisor with a proposed successor Operating Advisor (provided that the proposed successor Operating Advisor is an Eligible Operating Advisor) and (ii) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders and the Operating Advisor of such request by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b), and concurrently by mail. Upon the written direction of Holders of more than 50% of the Voting Rights of the Non-Reduced Interests that exercise their right to vote (provided that Holders of at least 50% of the Voting Rights of the Non-Reduced Interests exercise their right to vote), the Trustee will terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including accrued and unpaid compensation) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination)) by written notice to the Operating Advisor, and the proposed successor operating advisor will be appointed.

The Certificate Administrator shall include on each Distribution Date Statement a statement that each Certificateholder and beneficial owner of Certificates may access any notices posted on the “special notices” and on the “U.S. Risk Retention Special Notices” tabs on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and each Certificateholder and beneficial owner of Certificates may register to receive email notifications when such notices are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. The Certificate Administrator will be entitled to

-271-

reimbursement from the requesting Certificateholders for the reasonable expenses of posting notices of such requests.

(k)               After the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Termination Event, the Trustee may, and upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of the Classes of Certificates), the Trustee shall promptly terminate the Operating Advisor for cause and appoint a replacement Operating Advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor; provided that no such termination shall be effective until a successor Operating Advisor has been appointed and has assumed all of the obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement. No such termination shall terminate, change, reduce or otherwise modify the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor that accrued prior to such termination, including the rights to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement, and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination). The Trustee may rely on a certification by the replacement Operating Advisor that it is an Eligible Operating Advisor. If the Trustee is unable to find a replacement Operating Advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Operating Advisor, the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement. Upon any termination of the Operating Advisor and appointment of a successor to the Operating Advisor, the Trustee shall, as soon as possible, give written notice of the termination and appointment to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the 17g-5 Information Provider, the Depositor, the Controlling Class Representative (for any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan and only if no Consultation Termination Event is continuing), the Risk Retention Consultation Parties and the Certificateholders.

(l)                 The Holders of Certificates representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights affected by any Operating Advisor Termination Event hereunder may waive such Operating Advisor Termination Event within twenty (20) days of the receipt of notice from the Certificate Administrator of the occurrence of such Operating Advisor Termination Event. Upon any such waiver of an Operating Advisor Termination Event, such Operating Advisor Termination Event shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. Upon any such waiver of an Operating Advisor Termination Event, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with enforcement action taken with respect to such Operating Advisor Termination Event prior to such waiver from the Trust.

(m)             Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative shall have the right to consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, to the identity of any replacement Operating Advisor appointed pursuant to this Section 3.26; provided, further, that such consent will be deemed to have been granted if no objection is made within ten (10) Business Days following the Controlling Class Representative’s receipt of the request for consent and, if granted or deemed granted, such consent cannot thereafter be revoked or withdrawn.

(n)               The Operating Advisor may resign from its obligations and duties hereby imposed on it (a) upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations

-272-

Reviewer and the Controlling Class Representative and the Risk Retention Consultation Parties, if applicable, if the Operating Advisor has secured a replacement that is an Eligible Operating Advisor and (b) upon the appointment of, and the acceptance of such appointment by, a successor Operating Advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor and receipt by the Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency. No such resignation by the Operating Advisor shall become effective until the replacement Operating Advisor shall have assumed the resigning Operating Advisor’s responsibilities and obligations. The resigning Operating Advisor shall pay all costs and expenses (including costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) associated with a transfer of its duties pursuant to this Section 3.26.

(o)               In the event the Operating Advisor resigns or is otherwise terminated for any reason it shall remain entitled to any accrued and unpaid Operating Advisor Fees and Operating Advisor Consulting Fees and reimbursement of accrued and unpaid Operating Advisor Expenses pursuant to Section 3.26(i) and shall also remain entitled to any rights of indemnification provided hereunder.

(p)               The parties hereto agree, and the Certificateholders by their acceptance of their Certificates shall be deemed to have agreed, that (i) subject to Section 6.04, the Operating Advisor shall have no liability to any Certificateholder for any actions taken or for refraining from taking any actions under this Agreement, (ii) the Operating Advisor shall act solely as a contracting party to the extent set forth in this Agreement, (iii) the Operating Advisor shall have no (A) fiduciary duty, or (B) other duty except with respect to its specific obligations under this Agreement, and shall have no duty to any particular Class of Certificates or particular Certificateholders, and (iv) the Operating Advisor does not constitute an “investment adviser” within the meaning of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or a “broker” or “dealer” within the meaning of the Exchange Act.

(q)               The Operating Advisor may delegate its duties to agents or Subcontractors to the extent such agents or Subcontractors satisfy clauses (c), (d) and (e) of the definition of “Eligible Operating Advisor” and so long as the related agreements or arrangements with such agents or Subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Section 3.26. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Operating Advisor shall remain obligated and primarily liable for any actions required to be performed hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability or related obligation or liability by virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as its agents or Subcontractor to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Operating Advisor alone were performing its obligations under this Agreement.

(r)                For the avoidance of doubt, while the Operating Advisor may serve in a similar capacity with respect to other securitizations that involve the same parties or Mortgagors involved in this securitization, any experience or knowledge gained by the Operating Advisor from such other engagements may not be imputed to the Operating Advisor or its employees for this transaction; provided, however, the Operating Advisor may consider such experience or knowledge as pertinent information for discussion with the Special Servicer during its periodic meetings.

Section 3.27        Companion Paying Agent. (a) With respect to each of the Serviced Companion Loans, the Master Servicer shall be the Companion Paying Agent hereunder. The Companion Paying Agent undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement.

(b)               No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Companion Paying Agent from liability for its negligent failure to act, bad faith or its own willful misfeasance; provided, however, that the duties and obligations of the Companion Paying Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement. The Companion Paying Agent shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Companion Paying Agent. In the absence of bad faith on the part of the Companion Paying Agent, the Companion Paying Agent may conclusively rely, as to the truth and correctness of the statements or conclusions expressed therein, upon any resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instrument furnished to the Companion Paying Agent by any Person and which on their face do not contradict the requirements of this Agreement.

(c)               In the case of each of the Serviced Companion Loans, upon the resignation or removal of the Master Servicer pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement, the Master Servicer, as the Companion Paying Agent, shall be deemed simultaneously to resign or be removed.

(d)               This Section 3.27 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Companion Paying Agent, as regards to rights accrued prior to such resignation or removal.

Section 3.28        Companion Register. The Companion Paying Agent shall maintain a register (the “Companion Register”) with respect to each Serviced Companion Loan on which it will record the names and address of, and wire transfer instructions for, the Companion Holders from time to time, to the extent such information is provided in writing to it by each Companion Holder. The initial Companion Holders, along with their respective name and address, are listed on Exhibit S hereto. In the event a Companion Holder transfers a Companion Loan without notice to the Companion Paying Agent, the Companion Paying Agent shall have no liability for any misdirected payment in such Companion Loan and shall have no obligation to recover and redirect such payment.

The Companion Paying Agent shall promptly provide the name and address of the Companion Holder to any party hereto or any successor Companion Holder upon written request and any such Person may, without further investigation, conclusively rely upon such information. The Companion Paying Agent shall have no liability to any Person for the provision of any such name and address.

For the avoidance of doubt, any notices or information required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement by any party hereto to a Companion Holder with respect to a Companion Loan that has been included in an Other Securitization shall be provided to the Other Servicer (which, unless required by the related Co-Lender Agreement to be sent to additional parties, shall be satisfied by the delivery to the “master servicer” under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement) under the Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Section 3.29        Certain Matters Relating to the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans. (a) In the event that any of the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer shall be replaced in accordance with the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall acknowledge its successor as the successor to the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be.

(b)               If any of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Master Servicer receives notice from a Rating Agency that the Master Servicer is no longer an “approved” master servicer by any of the Rating Agencies rating the Certificates, then the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Master Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly notify each Non-Serviced Master Servicer of the same.

(c)               In connection with the securitization of each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (in each case, only while it is a Serviced Companion Loan), upon the request of (and at the expense of) the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (or its designee), each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Serviced Companion Noteholder in attempting to cause the related Mortgagor to provide information relating to such Whole Loan and the related notes, and that such holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, for inclusion in any disclosure document(s) relating to such Other Securitization.

(d)               In connection with the sale of any Non-Serviced Whole Loan by any Non-Serviced Special Servicer, upon receipt of any notices or materials required to be furnished by the Non-Serviced Special Servicer to the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement, the Special Servicer shall, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, forward such materials to the Controlling Class Representative for its consent, if such consent is required. The Special Servicer may (with the consent of the Controlling Class Representative prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) waive any timing or delivery requirements related to such sale to the extent set forth in the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(e)               With respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Controlling Class Representative, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, or the Special Servicer (consistent with the Servicing Standard), following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, shall be entitled to exercise any consultation rights held by the holder of such Mortgage Loan in its capacity as a “Non-Controlling Note Holder” (or similar term identified in the related Co-Lender Agreement) under the related Co-Lender Agreement.

(f)                With respect to the servicing of each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, this Agreement is subject to the related Co-Lender Agreement and incorporates by reference all provisions required to be included herein pursuant to such Co-Lender Agreement.

(g)               On a Servicing Shift Securitization Date, (i) the Custodian shall, upon receipt of a Request for Release transfer the related Mortgage File (other than the note(s)

-275-

designating the related Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, the original of which shall be retained by the Custodian) for the related Servicing Shift Whole Loan to the related Non-Serviced Trustee under the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement and retain a copy of such Mortgage File and (ii) the Master Servicer shall, upon receipt of notice from the Mortgage Loan Seller that the applicable Servicing Shift Lead Note has been or is being securitized on the related Servicing Shift Securitization Date, transfer (and cooperate with reasonable requests in connection with such transfer of) the Servicing File for the related Servicing Shift Whole Loan, and any Escrow Payments, reserve funds and originals of items specified in clauses (9), (12), (14) and (18) of the definition of Mortgage File for the related Servicing Shift Whole Loan, to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer on the related Servicing Shift Securitization Date.

Upon receipt of notice from the Mortgage Loan Seller that the applicable Servicing Shift Lead Note has been or is being securitized on the related Servicing Shift Securitization Date, the Master Servicer shall provide the Custodian with a Request for Release of the Mortgage File on the related Servicing Shift Securitization Date and transfer (and cooperate with reasonable requests in connection with such transfer of) the Servicing File to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer identified to it pursuant to the related notice from the related Mortgage Loan Seller on the related Servicing Shift Securitization Date.

Promptly upon any change in the identity of the Master Servicer, the successor master servicer shall deliver notice of such change (together with the contact information of such successor Master Servicer) to each Non-Serviced Trustee, Non-Serviced Certificate Administrator, Non-Serviced Special Servicer, Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Operating Advisor.

Section 3.30        Delivery of Excluded Information to the Certificate Administrator. (a) Any Excluded Information that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor identifies and delivers to the Certificate Administrator for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator via e-mail (or such other electronic means as is mutually acceptable to the parties) in one or more separate files labeled “Excluded Information” followed by the applicable loan name and loan file to CCTCMBSExcludedInformation@computershare.com. For the avoidance of doubt, any information that is not appropriately labeled and delivered in accordance with this Section 3.30(a) shall not be separately posted as Excluded Information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and any information appropriately labeled and delivered to the Certificate Administrator pursuant to this Section 3.30(a) shall be posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website under the “Excluded Information” section, as provided under Section 3.13. When so posted, the Excluded Controlling Class Holders shall be prohibited from the access of Excluded Information with respect to any Excluded Controlling Class Loans on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (unless a loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loans). None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor shall have any obligations to separately label and deliver any Excluded Information in accordance with this Section 3.30(a) until such party has received written notice with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loan in the form of Exhibit P-1E to this Agreement. Nothing set forth in this Agreement shall prohibit the Directing Holder or any Controlling Class Certificateholder from receiving, requesting or reviewing any Excluded Information relating to any Excluded Controlling

-276-

Class Loan with respect to which the Directing Holder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder is not a Borrower Party and, if such Excluded Information is not available to such Excluded Controlling Class Holder on the Certificate Administrator’s Website on account of it constituting Excluded Information, such Directing Holder or Controlling Class Certificateholder that is not a Borrower Party with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loan shall be permitted to reasonably request and obtain such information in accordance with Section 3.13(a).

(b)               Nothing set forth in this Agreement shall prohibit the Directing Holder or any Controlling Class Certificateholder from receiving, requesting or reviewing any Excluded Information relating to any Excluded Controlling Class Loan with respect to which the Directing Holder or such Controlling Class Certificateholder is not a Borrower Party and, if such Excluded Information is not available to such Excluded Controlling Class Holder via the Certificate Administrator’s Website on account of it constituting Excluded Information, such Directing Holder or Controlling Class Certificateholder that is not a Borrower Party with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loan shall be permitted to reasonably request and obtain such information in accordance with Section 4.02(f) of this Agreement.

Section 3.31        [Reserved].

-277-

and either of an Impermissible TPP Affiliate, an Impermissible Operating Advisor Affiliate and an Impermissible Asset Representations Reviewer Affiliate being an “Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate”), such Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate shall promptly notify the Retaining Sponsor and the parties to this Agreement and resign in accordance with Section 3.26, Section 6.05, Section 8.07 or Section 12.03, as applicable. The resigning Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate shall bear all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each other party to this Agreement, the Trust and each Rating Agency in connection with such resignation as and to the extent required under this Agreement; provided, however, if the affiliation causing an Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate is the result of the Third Party Purchaser acquiring an interest in such Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate or an affiliate of such Impermissible Risk Retention Affiliate, then such costs and expenses will be an expense of the Trust.

Section 3.34        Certain Matters with Respect to Joint Mortgage Loans.

(a)                             If a Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan (a “Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller”) repurchases the Mortgage Note(s) (as such term is defined in this Section 3.34(a)) (a “Repurchased Note”) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that it sold to the Depositor, but the other Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan does not repurchase the Mortgage Note(s) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that it sold to the Depositor, the provisions of this Section 3.34 shall apply prior to the adoption, pursuant to Section 13.01(l), of any amendment to this Agreement that provides otherwise. Each Mortgage Loan Seller of a Joint Mortgage Loan has agreed pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that the terms set forth in this Section 3.34 with respect to the servicing and administration of such Joint Mortgage Loan shall apply if one or more of the Mortgage Notes related to such Joint Mortgage Loan has been repurchased from the Trust and at least one other Mortgage Note related to such Joint Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust until such time as all of the Mortgage Notes related to such Joint Mortgage Loan are no longer included in the Trust. For purposes of this Section 3.34, Section 13.01(l) and Section 13.08(a) only, “Mortgage Note” shall mean with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, each original promissory note that collectively represents the Mortgage Note (as defined in Article I) with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and shall not be a collective reference to such promissory notes. With respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, clause (b) through clause (j) below shall not apply, and the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement shall continue to govern the relationship between the related Mortgage Notes as if each related Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or Non-Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable. With respect to any other Joint Mortgage Loan, clause (b) through clause (j) below shall apply to such Joint Mortgage Loan.

(b)               Custody of and record title under the Mortgage Loan documents with respect to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan shall be held exclusively by the Custodian as provided under this Agreement or, with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Non-Serviced Custodian as provided under the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, except that the Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall hold and retain title to its original Repurchased Note(s) and any related endorsements thereof.

(i)                All of the Mortgage Notes with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan shall be of equal priority with each other, and no portion of any Mortgage Note shall have priority or preference over any other portion of the other Mortgage Notes or security therefor.

-278-

Payments from the related Mortgagor (including, without limitation, any Penalty Charges) or any other amounts received with respect to each Mortgage Note shall be collected as provided in this Agreement by the applicable Master Servicer and shall be applied upon receipt by such Master Servicer pro rata to each related Mortgage Note based on its respective Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). Payments or any other amounts received with respect to the related Repurchased Note shall be held in trust for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and remitted (net of its pro rata share of amounts payable at the Administrative Cost Rate and any other amounts due to the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee by the applicable Master Servicer on each Distribution Date pursuant to instructions provided by the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and deposited and applied in accordance with this Agreement, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). If any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies becomes an REO Loan, payments or any other amounts received with respect to any such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be collected and shall be applied upon receipt by the applicable Master Servicer pro rata to each related Mortgage Note based on its respective Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). Any Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan subject to this Section 3.34 shall be allocated to each related Mortgage Note pro rata based upon the respective unpaid principal balances thereof.

(ii)                           If the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives an aggregate payment of less than the aggregate amount due under any such Joint Mortgage Loan at any particular time, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall receive from such Master Servicer an amount equal to its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such payment. All expenses, losses and shortfalls relating solely to such Joint Mortgage Loan including, without limitation, losses of principal or interest, Nonrecoverable Advances, interest on Property Protection Advances, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees (including any such fees related to the applicable Mortgage Notes), shall be allocated between the holders of the related Mortgage Notes pro rata based upon the respective unpaid principal balances thereof. In no event shall any costs, expenses, fees or any other amounts related to any Mortgage Loan or Joint Mortgage Loan other than the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan be deducted from payments or any other amounts received with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and payable to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller.

(iii)                        A Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.34 applies shall be serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and the Certificateholders pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in accordance with the Servicing Standard and in accordance with the provisions herein as if (A) such Joint Mortgage Loan were a Serviced Whole Loan, (B) the related Mortgage Note(s) not repurchased were (1) a Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and (2) the only Mortgage Loan that is part of such Joint Mortgage Loan (or related Serviced Whole Loan), and (C) the related Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan. No Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted to terminate the applicable Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor as servicer, special servicer or operating advisor, respectively, of the related Repurchased Note. All

-279-

rights of the mortgagee under each such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be exercised by the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the Trust to the extent of its interest therein and the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with this Agreement.

(iv)                With respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.34 applies, the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be treated hereunder as if it were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Holder on a pari passu basis. Funds collected by the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and applied to the applicable Mortgage Notes shall be deposited and disbursed in accordance with the provisions hereof relating to holders of promissory notes comprising Serviced Whole Loans that are pari passu in right of payment. Compensation shall be paid to the applicable Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor with respect to each Repurchased Note as provided in this Agreement as if each such Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the applicable Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor shall have any obligation to make P&I Advances with respect to any Repurchased Note or, if no related Mortgage Note is part of the Trust, a Property Protection Advance with respect to any Repurchased Note. Except as otherwise specified herein, the applicable Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have no reporting requirement with respect to any Repurchased Note other than to deliver to the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller any document as is required to be delivered to a holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan hereunder.

(c)               If any non-repurchased Mortgage Note relating to a Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, then any related Repurchased Note shall also be a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall cause such related Repurchased Note to be specially serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement and shall be entitled to any Special Servicing Fee, Workout Fee or Liquidation Fee payable to the Special Servicer under this Agreement as with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(d)               If (A) the applicable Master Servicer shall pay any amount to any Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the terms hereof in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been made or will be received or collected in connection with any or all of the applicable Mortgage Notes and (B) such related payment is not received or collected by such Master Servicer, then the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly on demand by such Master Servicer return such amount to such Master Servicer. If such Master Servicer determines at any time that any amount received or collected by such Master Servicer in respect of any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies must be returned to the related Mortgagor or paid to any other person or entity pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, such Master Servicer shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, and such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly on demand by such Master Servicer repay (which obligation shall survive the termination of this Agreement) any portion thereof that such Master Servicer shall have distributed to such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, together

-280-

with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as such Master Servicer may pay to the related Mortgagor or such other person or entity with respect thereto.

(e)               With respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.34 applies, subject to this Agreement (including, without limitation, the consent and consultation rights of the Directing Holder and any consultation rights of the Operating Advisor), the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the holders of any of the Repurchased Notes, shall have the exclusive right and obligation to (i) administer, service and make all decisions and determinations regarding the related Joint Mortgage Loan and (ii) enforce the applicable Mortgage Loan documents as provided hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may agree to any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, forgive interest on and principal of, capitalize interest on, permit the release, addition or substitution of collateral securing, and/or permit the release of the related Mortgagor on or any guarantor of any Joint Mortgage Loan it is required to service and administer as contemplated by this Section 3.34, without the consent of the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, subject, however, to the terms of this Agreement as they pertain to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(f)                In taking or refraining from taking any action permitted hereunder, the applicable Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each be subject to the same degree of care with respect to the administration and servicing of the Joint Mortgage Loans that are not Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans and to which this Section 3.34 applies as is consistent with this Agreement and shall be liable to any Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller only to the same extent as set forth herein with respect to any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(g)               If the Trustee, the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has made a Property Protection Advance with respect to any Repurchased Note which would otherwise be reimbursable to such advancing party under this Agreement, and such Advance is determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall reimburse the Trust in an amount equal to such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller’s Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such Nonrecoverable Advance with interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be obligated to reimburse the Trustee, the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (and amounts due to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be offset) for Advances or interest thereon or any amounts related to any Mortgage Loans or any other Joint Mortgage Loan other than such amounts relating to the applicable Repurchased Note. To the extent that the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller reimburses any such Nonrecoverable Advances and such amounts are subsequently recovered, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall receive a reimbursement from such recovery based on its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such recovery. This reimbursement right shall not limit the Trustee’s, the applicable Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s rights to reimbursement under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the total liability of each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not exceed an amount equal to its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of the amount to be reimbursed.

(i)                 With respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.34 applies, the applicable Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, in connection with their servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement, exercise efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to execute and deliver, on behalf of each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller as a holder of a pari passu interest in the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan, any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents and instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by any Mortgage or other security document related to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to or with respect to the related Joint Mortgage Loan documents, and any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments with respect to the related Repurchased Note or related Repurchased Notes and the related Mortgaged Property all in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Agreement. Each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller agrees to furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the applicable Master Servicer and the Special Servicer any powers of attorney or other documents necessary or appropriate to enable such Master Servicer or such Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement related to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan; provided that such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be liable, and shall be indemnified by the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by such Master Servicer or such Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided, further, that the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, without the written consent of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, shall not initiate any action in the name of such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller without indicating its representative capacity or take any action with the intent to cause and that actually causes, such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller to be registered to do business in any state.

(j)                 Pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller is required to deliver to the applicable Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Mortgage Loan documents related to the applicable Repurchased Note, any requests for release and any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of the related Mortgaged Property or to any legal action or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note(s) or the Mortgage(s) or otherwise available at law or equity with respect to the related Repurchased Note.

Section 3.35        Litigation Control. (a) With respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or any Excluded Special Servicer Loan), any Serviced Companion Loan or any related REO Loan or related REO Property, the Special Servicer shall, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, direct, manage, prosecute and/or defend any action brought by a Borrower Party against the Trust (including, without limitation, any action in which both the Trust and the Master Servicer are named), and/or the Special Servicer or any predecessor master servicer or special servicer, and represent the interests of the Trust in any litigation relating

-282-

to the rights and obligations (or enforcement of obligations) of the Trust, or of the Mortgagor or other Borrower Party, under the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, or with respect to the related Mortgaged Property or other collateral securing such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, or otherwise with respect to the enforcement of the obligations of a Borrower Party under the related Mortgage Loan documents (“Loan-Related Litigation”). In the event that the Master Servicer is named in any Loan-Related Litigation but the Special Servicer is not named in such Loan-Related Litigation (and regardless of whether the Trust is named in such Loan-Related Litigation), the Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer of such litigation as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event no later than within ten (10) Business Days of the Master Servicer receiving service of such Loan-Related Litigation. The Operating Advisor shall not be required to review the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to Loan-Related Litigation unless such review is otherwise related to the performance of the Operating Advisors duties, rights and obligations in respect of a Final Asset Status Report and/or Asset Status Report.

(b)               With respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and to the extent the Master Servicer is named in the Loan-Related Litigation, and neither the Trust nor the Special Servicer is named, in order to effectuate the role of the Special Servicer as contemplated by the immediately preceding subsection, the Master Servicer shall (i) provide quarterly (unless requested in writing from time to time on a more frequent basis) status reports to the Special Servicer regarding such Loan-Related Litigation; provided, however, that nothing in this requirement to deliver a status report shall require or obligate the Master Servicer to provide privileged or confidential information; (ii) use reasonable efforts to have the Trust replace the Master Servicer as the appropriate party to the lawsuit; and (iii) so long as the Master Servicer remains a party to such lawsuit, consult with, and take direction from, the Special Servicer with respect to material decisions and material monetary settlements related to the interests of the Trust in such Loan-Related Litigation, including but not limited to the selection of counsel. If and/or when the Trust and/or the Special Servicer are named, the Special Servicer shall assume control of the Loan-Related Litigation as provided in Section 3.35(a) above, the Master Servicer shall no longer have the reporting obligations set forth above and the Special Servicer’s selection of counsel shall be subject to the consent of the Master Servicer which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Further, the Master Servicer shall have the right to engage separate counsel relating to claims against the Master Servicer to the extent set forth in Section 3.35(e) if there are claims against the Master Servicer.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall not (i) undertake (or direct the Master Servicer to undertake) any material settlement of any Loan-Related Litigation or (ii) initiate any material Loan-Related Litigation unless and until (A) it has notified in writing the Directing Holder (only if the related Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan and for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and to the extent the identity of the Directing Holder is actually known to the Special Servicer; provided that the Special Servicer shall make due inquiry of the Certificate Administrator as to the identity of the Directing Holder) and the related holder of any Serviced Companion Loan (if such matter affects such related Serviced Companion Loan and to the extent the identity of the holder of such Serviced Companion Loan is actually known to the Special Servicer) and (B) the Directing Holder (only if the related Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan and for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) has not objected in writing within five (5) Business Days of having been notified thereof and having been provided with all information that the Directing Holder has reasonably

-283-

requested with respect thereto promptly following its receipt of the subject notice (it being understood and agreed that if such written objection has not been received by the Special Servicer within such five (5) Business Day period, then the Directing Holder shall be deemed to have approved the taking of such action); provided that, if the Special Servicer determines (consistent with the Servicing Standard) that immediate action is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholders, the Special Servicer may take such action without waiting for the Directing Holder’s response.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.35, neither the Special Servicer nor the Master Servicer shall follow any advice, direction or consultation provided by the Directing Holder (or any other party to this Agreement) that would require or cause the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate any applicable law, be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, require or cause the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate provisions of this Agreement, require or cause the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, expose any Certificateholder or any party to this Agreement or their Affiliates, officers, directors or agents to any claim, suit or liability, cause any Adverse REMIC Event, or materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, the Master Servicer’s, the Certificate Administrator’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, responsibilities under this Agreement.

(e)               Notwithstanding the right of the Special Servicer provided under this Section 3.35 to represent the interests of the Trust in Loan-Related Litigation, and subject to the rights of the Special Servicer to direct the Master Servicer’s actions in this Section 3.35, the Master Servicer shall retain the right at all times to make determinations relating to claims against the Master Servicer, including but not limited to the right to engage separate counsel, to make settlement decisions and to appear in any proceeding on its own behalf. The cost related to or incurred in connection with exercising such rights shall be subject to indemnification as and to the extent provided in this Agreement.

(f)                Further, nothing in this Section 3.35 shall require the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any other party to this Agreement to take or fail to take any action which, in such party’s reasonable judgment and in accordance with the Servicing Standard, may (i) cause any Adverse REMIC Event, (ii) cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to violate the Servicing Standard, (iii) result in a violation of applicable law or the Mortgage Loan documents or (iv) subject the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or other such party to liability or materially expand the scope of the Master Servicer’s, the Special Servicer’s or such party’s obligations under this Agreement.

(g)               In the event where the Master Servicer or Special Servicer is a named party neither the Special Servicer nor the Master Servicer shall settle on behalf of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, any Loan-Related Litigation without such party’s consent unless: (i) such settlement does not contain or require any admission of liability, wrongdoing or consent to injunctive relief on the part of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer are each fully released, (ii) the cost of such settlement or any resulting judgment is and shall be paid by the Trust pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and payment of such cost or judgment is provided for in this Agreement, (iii) each of

-284-

the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer is and shall be indemnified as and to the extent provided in this Agreement for all costs and expenses incurred in defending and settling the Loan-Related Litigation and for any judgment, (iv) any such action taken by the Master Servicer at the direction of the Special Servicer shall be deemed (as to the Master Servicer) to be in compliance with the Servicing Standard and (v) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, provides the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with assurance reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as to the items in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv).

(h)               In the event both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or the Trust are named in Loan-Related Litigation, to the extent that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer deem it appropriate, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall (i) use reasonable efforts to enter into a joint defense agreement and (ii) otherwise cooperate with each other to afford the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer the rights afforded to such party in this Section 3.35.

(i)                 This Section 3.35 shall not apply in the event, and to the extent that, the Special Servicer authorizes the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer agrees (both authority and agreement to be in writing), to make certain decisions or control certain Loan-Related Litigation on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

(j)                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the power of attorney, (i) in the event that any action, suit, litigation or proceeding names the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, in its individual capacity, or in the event that any judgment is rendered against the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, in its individual capacity, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, upon prior written notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may retain separate counsel and appear in any such proceeding on its own behalf in order to protect and represent its interests (but not to otherwise direct, manage or prosecute such litigation or claim); (ii) in the event of any action, suit, litigation or proceeding, other than an action, suit, litigation or proceeding relating to the enforcement of the obligations of a Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor under the related Mortgage Loan documents, or otherwise relating to one or more Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged Properties, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, without the prior written consent of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, (A) initiate an action, suit, litigation or proceeding in the name of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, whether in such capacity or individually, (B) engage counsel to represent the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, (C) settle any claim giving rise to liability to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, in its individual capacity, or (D) prepare, execute or deliver any government filings, forms, permits, registrations or other documents or take any other similar action with the intent to cause, and that actually causes, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, to be registered to do business in any state (provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be responsible for any delay due to the unwillingness of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, to grant such consent); and (iii) in the event that any court finds that the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as

-285-

applicable, is a necessary party in respect of any action, suit, litigation or proceeding relating to or arising from this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, shall have the right to retain counsel and appear in any such proceeding on its own behalf in order to protect and represent its interests, whether as the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, or individually (but not to otherwise direct, manage or prosecute such litigation or claim); provided, however, nothing in this subsection shall be interpreted to preclude the Special Servicer (with respect to any material Loan-Related Litigation with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, with the consent or consultation of the Directing Holder prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event, respectively, to the extent required in Section 3.35(c)) from initiating any action, suit, litigation or proceeding in its name as representative of the Trust. References to Mortgage Loans (including references to Mortgagors, guarantors, obligors and Mortgaged Properties) in this Section 3.35 shall mean Mortgage Loans other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Section, this Section shall not apply to any Loan-Related Litigation and shall have no force and effect with respect thereto, in the event that either (i) at the time such Loan-Related Litigation is commenced or at any time during the continuance of such Loan-Related Litigation, LNR Partners, LLC is no longer the Special Servicer with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or related Whole Loan or has received notice of its replacement as Special Servicer with respect to the related Mortgage Loan or related Whole Loan (whether or not such replacement is effective) or such related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan is an Excluded Special Servicer Loan in respect of LNR Partners, LLC as Special Servicer, or (ii) the Depositor, any Sponsor, any Mortgage Loan Seller, any Initial Purchaser, any Underwriter, or any of their respective affiliates is an adverse party (with respect to the Trust or the Special Servicer) in such Loan-Related Litigation or holds any interest which is adverse to the Trust or the Special Servicer in the related Mortgage Loan or related Whole Loan (or any portion thereof) or the related Mortgaged Property to which Loan-Related Litigation relates, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by each of the Depositor, Sponsor, Mortgage Loan Seller, Initial Purchaser, Underwriter, or affiliate that is such a party or holds such interest. In each case under clause (ii) above, the applicable party shall provide notice of such occurrence to the Master Servicer pursuant to this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer relating to any Loan-Related Litigation shall be limited solely to the representation of the Trust and itself, separate and apart from the interests of any other party thereto. For the further avoidance of doubt, in such circumstance described in this paragraph, the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer relating to litigation shall be as otherwise set forth with respect to servicing in this Agreement.

(xxiv)                       twenty-fourth, to the Holders of the Class G-RR Certificates, first (a) up to an amount equal to the aggregate of unreimbursed Non-VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class, then (b) up to an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount set forth in clause (a) at the Pass-Through Rate for such Class compounded

-290-

monthly from the date the related Non-VRR Realized Loss was allocated to such Class until the date such Non-VRR Realized Loss is reimbursed;

(xxv)                            twenty-fifth, to the Holders of the Class J-RR Certificates, in respect of interest, up to an amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount in respect of such Class of Certificates for such Distribution Date;

(xxvi)                         twenty-sixth, after the Certificate Balances of the Class A Certificates, the Class B Certificates, the Class C Certificates, the Class D Certificates, the Class E Certificates, the Class F Certificates and the Class G-RR Certificates have been reduced to zero, to the Holders of the Class J-RR Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, up to an amount equal to the Non-VRR Principal Distribution Amount, less the portion of such Non-VRR Principal Distribution Amount distributed pursuant to all prior clauses, until the outstanding Certificate Balance of the Class J-RR Certificates has been reduced to zero;

(xxvii)                      twenty-seventh, to the Holders of the Class J-RR Certificates, first (a) up to an amount equal to the aggregate of unreimbursed Non-VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class, then (b) up to an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount set forth in clause (a) at the Pass-Through Rate for such Class compounded monthly from the date the related Non-VRR Realized Loss was allocated to such Class until the date such Non-VRR Realized Loss is reimbursed;

If, in connection with any Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator has reported the amount of an anticipated distribution to DTC based on the receipt of payments as of the Determination Date and additional Periodic Payments, Balloon Payments or unscheduled principal payments are subsequently received by the Master Servicer and required to be part of the Non-VRR Available Funds for such Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Administrator will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause DTC to make the revised distribution on a timely basis on such Distribution Date. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator shall be liable or held responsible for any resulting delay in the making of such distribution to Certificateholders solely on the basis of the actions described in the preceding sentence.

(c)               [Reserved].

(d)               On each Distribution Date, each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall be deemed to receive distributions in respect of principal or reimbursement of Realized Losses in an amount equal to the amount of principal or reimbursement of Realized Losses actually distributable to the Holders of the respective Related Certificates as provided in Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(b), Section 4.01(d), Section 4.01(e), Section 4.01(g) and Section 4.01(j) such that at all times the Lower-Tier Principal Amount of each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests is equal to the Certificate Balance of the Class of Related Certificates. On each Distribution Date, each

-291-

Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall be deemed to receive distributions in respect of interest in an amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount or VRR Interest Distribution Amount, as applicable, in respect of its Related Certificates or VRR Interest, as applicable, plus a pro rata portion of the Interest Distribution Amount in respect of (i) in the case of the Class LA1 Uncertificated Interest and Class LA3 Uncertificated Interest, the Class X-A Certificates, (ii) in the case of the and Class LAS Uncertificated Interest, Class LB Uncertificated Interest and Class LC Uncertificated Interest, the Class X-B Certificates, (iii) in the case of the Class LD Uncertificated Interest and Class LE Uncertificated Interest, the Class X-D Certificates, and (iv) in the case of the Class LF Uncertificated Interest, the Class X-F Certificates, in each case, computed based on an interest rate equal to the excess of the Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate over the Pass-Through Rate of the Related Certificates and a Notional Amount equal to its related Lower-Tier Principal Amount, in each case to the extent actually distributable thereon as provided in Section 4.01(b). Amounts distributable pursuant to this paragraph are referred to herein collectively as the “Lower-Tier Distribution Amount”, and shall be made by the Certificate Administrator by deeming such Lower-Tier Distribution Amount to be withdrawn from the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account to be deposited in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account.

As of any date, the principal balance of each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall equal the Certificate Balance of the Related Certificates with respect thereto, as adjusted for the allocation of Realized Losses, as provided in Section 4.04. The initial principal balance of each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall equal the respective Original Lower-Tier Principal Amount. The pass-through rate with respect to each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall be the rate per annum set forth in the Preliminary Statement hereto.

Any amount that remains in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on each Distribution Date after distribution of the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount, and distribution of Yield Maintenance Charges pursuant to Section 4.01(f)(iii) shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest (but only to the extent of the Aggregate Available Funds for such Distribution Date remaining in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, if any).

(e)               On and after the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Balances of the Subordinate Certificates have all been reduced to zero, any amounts representing reimbursements of Non-VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to such Classes, if available, will be distributed to the Holders of the Class A Certificates (other than the Class A-S Certificates), pro rata based on their respective Certificate Balances.

(f)                (i) On any Distribution Date, the VRR Percentage of any Yield Maintenance Charge collected on the Mortgage Loans as of the related Determination Date shall be distributed to the VRR Interest Owners, pro rata based upon the aggregate amount of principal distributed in respect of the Class RR Certificates and the RR Interest, and the Non-VRR Percentage of any Yield Maintenance Charge collected on the Mortgage Loans as of the related Determination Date shall be distributed to Holders of the Classes of Non-VRR Certificates as follows: (a) pro rata, between (i) the group (“YM Group A”) of the Class A-1, Class A-3 and Class X-A Certificates, (ii) the group (“YM Group B”) of the Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B and Class C Certificates, (iii) the group of the Class X-D, Class D and Class E Certificates and (iv)

-292-

the group (together with YM Group A, YM Group B and YM Group D, the “YM Groups”) of Class X-F and Class F Certificates based upon the aggregate amount of principal distributed to the Holders of the Classes of Principal Balance Certificates in each YM Group on such Distribution Date; and (b) as among the respective Classes of Principal Balance Certificates in each YM Group in the following manner: (1) the Holders of each Class of Principal Balance Certificates in such YM Group will be entitled to receive on each Distribution Date an amount of such Yield Maintenance Charge equal to the product of (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount distributed as principal to such Class of Principal Balance Certificates on such Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all of the Principal Balance Certificates in such YM Group on such Distribution Date, (y) the Base Interest Fraction for the related Principal Prepayment and such Class of Certificates and (z) the aggregate amount of such Yield Maintenance Charge allocated to such YM Group, and (2) the portion of such Yield Maintenance Charge allocated to such YM Group remaining after such distributions to the applicable classes of Principal Balance Certificates will be distributed to the Holders of the Class of Class X Certificates (if any) in such YM Group. If there is more than one Class of Principal Balance Certificates in either YM Group entitled to distributions of principal on any particular Distribution Date on which Yield Maintenance Charges are distributable to such Class(es) of Certificates, the aggregate amount of such Yield Maintenance Charges will be allocated among all such Classes of Principal Balance Certificates up to, and on a pro rata basis in accordance with, their respective entitlements in those Yield Maintenance Charges in accordance with the first sentence of this paragraph.

(ii)                        No Yield Maintenance Charges shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates. After the Distribution Date on which the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D and Class X-F Certificates and the Certificate Balances of the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E and Class F Certificates have been reduced to zero, the Non-VRR Percentage of all Yield Maintenance Charges collected with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be distributed pro rata to the Holders of the Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates (based on their respective Certificate Balances) and the VRR Percentage of all Yield Maintenance Charges with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be distributed pro rata to the VRR Interest Owners.

(iii)                     All distributions of Yield Maintenance Charges made in respect of the respective Classes of Regular Certificates or the VRR Interest on each Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(f)(i) or Section 4.01(f)(ii) shall first be deemed to be distributed from the Lower-Tier REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, pro rata based upon the amount of principal distributed in respect of each such Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(d) above.

(g)               On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw (i) amounts from the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account (other than amounts with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and shall distribute such amounts to reimburse the Holders of the Principal Balance Certificates (in order of distribution priority) (first deeming such amounts to be distributed with respect to the Related Lower-Tier Regular Interests) up to an amount equal to all Non-VRR Realized Losses, if any, previously deemed allocated to them and unreimbursed after application of the Non-VRR Available Funds for such Distribution Date, and (ii) from the

-293-

VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account (other than amounts with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and shall distribute such amounts to reimburse the VRR Interest Owners (first deeming such amounts to be distributed with respect to the Related Lower-Tier Regular Interests) up to an amount equal to all VRR Realized Losses, if any, previously deemed allocated to the VRR Interest and unreimbursed after application of the VRR Available Funds for such Distribution Date. Amounts paid from the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account or the VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account will not reduce the Certificate Balances of the Classes of Certificates receiving such distributions or the RR Interest Balance, as applicable. Any amounts remaining (1) in the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account after such distributions shall be held and applied to offset future Non-VRR Realized Losses with respect to the Principal Balance Certificates and related Non-VRR Realized Losses in each case allocable to the Non-VRR Certificates and (2) in the VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account after such distributions shall be held and applied to offset future VRR Realized Losses with respect to the VRR Interest. Upon termination of the Trust, any amounts remaining in the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account and the VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall be distributed to the Class R Certificateholders from the Lower Tier REMIC in respect of the Class LR Interest.

(h)               All distributions made with respect to each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 4.01(i), Section 4.01(j) and Section 9.01, all such distributions with respect to each Class on each Distribution Date shall be made to the Certificateholders of the respective Class of record at the close of business on the related Record Date and shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of any such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided the Certificate Administrator with wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent Distribution Dates), or otherwise by check mailed to such Certificateholder at its address in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to such Certificate) will be made in like manner, but, in the case of the Certificates, only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Underwriters shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this Agreement or applicable law.

(i)                 Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the Certificate Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates

-294-

(determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of any amount of Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class of Certificates) will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall, no later than the related P&I Advance Determination Date, post on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) a notice in electronic format to the effect that:

(i)                           the Certificate Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date but, in the case of the Certificates, only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location therein specified; and

(ii)                        no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after such Distribution Date.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(i) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six (6) months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust hereunder by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(i).

(j)                 Distributions in reimbursement of Non-VRR Realized Losses or VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to the Non-VRR Certificates or the VRR Interest shall be made in the amounts and manner specified in Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(b), Section 4.01(d) or Section 4.01(e) as applicable, to the Holders of the respective Class or the VRR Interest Owners otherwise entitled to distributions of interest and principal on such Class or the VRR Interest on the relevant Distribution Date; provided that all distributions in reimbursement of Non-VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to a Class of Certificates which has since been retired shall be to the prior Holders that surrendered the Certificates of such Class upon retirement thereof and shall be made by check mailed to the address of each such prior Holder last shown in the Certificate Register. Notice of any such distribution to a prior Holder shall be made in accordance with Section 13.05 at such last address. The amount of the distribution to each such prior Holder shall be based upon the aggregate Percentage Interest evidenced by the Certificates surrendered thereby. If the check mailed to any such prior Holder is returned uncashed, then the amount thereof shall be set aside and held uninvested in trust for the benefit of such prior Holder, and the

-295-

Certificate Administrator shall attempt to contact such prior Holder in the manner contemplated by Section 4.01(h) as if such Holder had failed to surrender its Certificates.

(k)               [Reserved].

(l)                 On the Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan, the Companion Paying Agent shall make withdrawals and payments from the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account for each Companion Loan in the following order of priority:

(i)                           to pay to the Master Servicer any amounts transferred to the Companion Paying Agent for deposit into the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account not required to be deposited therein;

(ii)                        to the extent permitted under the related Co-Lender Agreement and not otherwise previously reimbursed, to pay the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator or any of their directors, officers, employees and agents, as the case may be, any amounts payable or reimbursable to any such Person pursuant to Section 8.05, to the extent any such amounts relate solely to a Serviced Whole Loan related to such Companion Loan, and such amounts are to be paid by the related Companion Holder pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement;

(iii)                     to pay all amounts remaining in the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account related to such Serviced Companion Loan to the related Companion Holder, in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement; and

(iv)                     to clear and terminate the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account at the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.

All distributions from the Serviced Whole Loan Custodial Account required hereunder shall be made by the Companion Paying Agent to the related Companion Holder by wire transfer in immediately available funds on the Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date to the account of such Companion Holder or an agent therefor appearing on the Companion Register on the related Record Date (or, if no such account so appears or information relating thereto is not provided at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by check sent by first class mail to the address of such Companion Holder or its agent appearing on the Companion Register). Any such account shall be located at a commercial bank in the United States.

On the final Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account and deliver to the Certificate Administrator who shall distribute to the Mortgage Loan Sellers, any Loss of Value Payments relating to the Mortgage Loans that it is servicing and that were transferred from the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to the Collection Account on the immediately preceding Master Servicer Remittance Date.

Upon receipt of an Asset Review Report Summary from the Asset Representations Reviewer required to be delivered pursuant to Section 12.01(b), the Certificate Administrator shall (i) include such Asset Review Report Summary in Item 1B on the Form 10-D in accordance with Section 11.04 for such period in which such Asset Review Report Summary was delivered, and (ii) post such Asset Review Report Summary to the Certificate Administrator’s Website not later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of such Asset Review Report Summary from the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(b)               [Reserved].

(c)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may, at its sole cost and expense, make available by electronic media, bulletin board service or Internet website (in addition to making information available as provided herein) any reports or other information the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is required or permitted to provide to any party to this Agreement, the Rating Agencies or any Certificateholder or any prospective Certificateholder that has provided the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with an Investor Certification or has executed a “click-through” confidentiality agreement in accordance with Section 3.13 hereof (which may be a licensed or registered investment advisor) to the extent such action does not conflict with the terms of this Agreement (including without limitation, any requirements to keep Privileged Information confidential), the terms of the Mortgage Loans or applicable law. Notwithstanding this paragraph, the availability of such information or reports on the Internet or similar electronic media shall not be deemed to satisfy any specific delivery requirements in this Agreement except as set forth herein. In connection with providing access to the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s Internet

-300-

website, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall take reasonable measures to ensure that only such parties listed above may access such information including, without limitation, requiring registration, a confidentiality agreement and acceptance of a disclaimer. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be liable for dissemination of this information in accordance with this Agreement, and neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be responsible for any information delivered, produced, or made available pursuant to Sections 3.13 and 4.02(c), other than information produced by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable; provided that such information otherwise meets the requirements set forth herein with respect to the form and substance of such information or reports. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to attach to any report provided pursuant to this subsection, any reasonable disclaimer with respect to information provided, or any assumptions required to be made by such report.

The Special Servicer shall from time to time (and, in any event, as may be reasonably required by the Master Servicer) provide the Master Servicer with such information in its possession regarding the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties as may be necessary for the Master Servicer to prepare each report and any supplemental information to be provided by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator. Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Depositor shall have any obligation to recompute, verify or recalculate the information provided thereto by the Master Servicer. Unless the Certificate Administrator has actual knowledge that any report or file received from the Master Servicer contains erroneous information, the Certificate Administrator is authorized to rely thereon in calculating and making distributions to Certificateholders in accordance with Section 4.01, preparing the Distribution Date Statement required by Section 4.02(a) and allocating Non-VRR Realized Losses to the Principal Balance Certificates in accordance with Section 4.04 and VRR Realized Losses to the VRR Interest in accordance with Section 4.04.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed pursuant to this Section 4.02(c) or Section 4.02(d) shall not constitute a breach of this Section 4.02(c) or of Section 4.02(d) to the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer so fails because such disclosure, in the reasonable belief of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would violate any applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may affix to any information provided by it any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto).

(d)               Upon the written request of a Certificateholder, any beneficial owner of a Certificate, or any prospective purchaser of a Certificate that is a Qualified Institutional Buyer and is designated by a Certificateholder or a beneficial owner of a Certificate as such and, in any case, has delivered an Investor Certification to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, as soon as reasonably practicable, at the expense of the requesting party, the Certificate Administrator shall make available to the requesting party such information that is in the Certificate Administrator’s possession or can reasonably be obtained by the Certificate Administrator as is requested by such Person, for purposes of satisfying applicable reporting requirements under Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Neither the Certificate Registrar, nor the

-301-

Certificate Administrator shall have any responsibility for the sufficiency under Rule 144A or any other securities laws of any available information so furnished to any person including any prospective purchaser of a Certificate or any interest therein, nor for the content or accuracy of any information so furnished which was prepared or delivered to them by another.

(e)               The information to which any Certificateholder is entitled is limited to the information gathered and provided to the Certificateholder by the parties hereto pursuant to this Agreement and by acceptance of any Certificate, each Certificateholder agrees that except as specifically provided herein, no Certificateholder shall contact any Mortgagor directly with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(f)                Upon the reasonable request of any Excluded Controlling Class Holder identified to the Master Servicer (in the case of a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan) or the Special Servicer (in the case of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s reasonable satisfaction (at the expense of such Excluded Controlling Class Holder) and if such information is in the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s possession, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide or make available (or forward electronically) to such Excluded Controlling Class Holder (at the expense of such Excluded Controlling Class Holder) any Excluded Information (available to Privileged Persons through the Certificate Administrator’s Website but not accessible to such Excluded Controlling Class Holder through the Certificate Administrator’s Website on account of it constituting Excluded Information) relating to any Excluded Controlling Class Loan with respect to which such Excluded Controlling Class Holder is not a Borrower Party; provided that, in connection therewith, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may require a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, generally to the effect that such Person is the Directing Holder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, will keep such Excluded Information confidential and is not a Borrower Party, upon which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may conclusively rely. In addition, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on delivery from the Directing Holder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B that such Directing Holder or Controlling Class Certificateholder is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer referenced in this Section 4.02(f) shall include any applicable Excluded Special Servicer with respect to the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan(s).

Section 4.03        P&I Advances. (a) On or before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall either (i) remit to the Certificate Administrator for deposit from its own funds into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of P&I Advances, if any, with respect to the Mortgage Loans to be made in respect of the related Distribution Date or (ii) apply amounts held in the Collection Account, for future distribution to Certificateholders in subsequent months in discharge of any such obligation to make P&I Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans, or (iii) make P&I Advances in the form of any combination of clauses (i) and (ii), aggregating the total amount of P&I Advances to be made. Any amounts held in the Collection Account for future distribution and so used to make P&I Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be appropriately reflected in the Master Servicer’s records and replaced by the Master Servicer by

-302-

deposit in the Collection Account on or before the next succeeding Master Servicer Remittance Date (to the extent not previously replaced through the deposit of Late Collections of the delinquent principal and/or interest in respect of which P&I Advances were made). The Master Servicer shall notify the Certificate Administrator of (i) the aggregate amount of P&I Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans for a Distribution Date and (ii) the amount of any Nonrecoverable P&I Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans for such Distribution Date, on or before two (2) Business Days prior to such Distribution Date. If the Master Servicer fails to make a required P&I Advance by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Trustee shall make such P&I Advance pursuant to Section 7.05 by noon, New York City time, on the related Distribution Date, unless the Master Servicer shall have cured such failure (and provided written notice of such cure to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Distribution Date. In the event that the Master Servicer fails to make a required P&I Advance hereunder, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee of such circumstances by 4:30 p.m., New York City time, on the related Master Servicer Remittance Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the portion of any P&I Advance equal to the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee for the related Mortgage Loans shall not be remitted to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account but shall be deposited into the Collection Account for payment to CREFC^® on such Distribution Date. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee make a P&I Advance with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, then it shall provide written notice to the related Other Servicer, Other Trustee, Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer or Non-Serviced Trustee, as applicable, of the amount of such P&I Advance with respect to such Mortgage Loan within two (2) Business Days of making such P&I Advance.

(b)               Subject to Section 4.03(c) and Section 4.03(e) below, the amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer with respect to any Distribution Date and each Mortgage Loan, shall be equal to: (i) the Periodic Payments (net of related Servicing Fees and, in the case of any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, a fee accruing at the related Non-Serviced Primary Servicing Fee Rate) other than Balloon Payments, that were due on the Mortgage Loans (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan) during the related Collection Period and delinquent as of the close of business on the Business Day preceding the related Master Servicer Remittance Date (or not advanced by any Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer) and (ii) with respect to each Mortgage Loan delinquent in respect of its Balloon Payment as of the Master Servicer Remittance Date (including any REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan) as to which the related Balloon Payment would have been past due), an amount equal to the Assumed Scheduled Payment therefor. Subject to subsection (c) below, the obligation of the Master Servicer to make such P&I Advances is mandatory, and with respect to any Mortgage Loan (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Loan (other than any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan), shall continue until the Distribution Date on which the proceeds, if any, received in connection with a Liquidation Event or the disposition of the REO Property, as the case may be, with respect thereto are to be distributed. No P&I Advances shall be made with respect to any Companion Loan.

(c)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no P&I Advance shall be required to be made hereunder if such P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. With respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer or the

-303-

Special Servicer shall make its determination (based on information provided by the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer) that it has made a P&I Advance on such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan that is a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance with respect to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan independently of any determination made by the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be, under the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement in respect of the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan. If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer determines that a proposed P&I Advance with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall provide the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days of the date of such determination. If the Master Servicer receives written notice from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be, that either has determined in accordance with the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement with respect to a Non-Serviced Companion Loan, that any proposed advance under the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement that is similar to a P&I Advance would be, or any outstanding advance under such Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement that is similar to a P&I Advance is, a nonrecoverable advance, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee may, based upon such determination, determine that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, will be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. Thereafter, in either case, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall not be required to make any additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan unless and until the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines that any such additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan would not be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, which determination may be as a result of consultation with the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be, or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have the sole discretion provided in this Agreement to determine that any future P&I Advance or outstanding P&I Advance would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(d)               In connection with the recovery of any P&I Advance out of the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.05(a), the Master Servicer shall be entitled to pay the Trustee and itself (in that order of priority) as the case may be, out of any amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account (but in no event from any funds allocable to a Serviced Companion Noteholder (unless related thereto), except to the extent permitted pursuant to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement), interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of such P&I Advance from the date made to but not including the date of reimbursement; provided, however, that no interest will accrue on any P&I Advance (i) made with respect to a Mortgage Loan unless the related Periodic Payment is received after the related Due Date has passed and any applicable Grace Period has expired or (ii) if the related Periodic Payment is received after the Determination Date but on or prior to the related Master Servicer Remittance Date. The Master Servicer shall reimburse itself and/or the Trustee, as the case may be, for any outstanding P&I Advance, subject to Section 3.17 of this Agreement, as soon as practicably possible after funds available for such purpose are deposited in the Collection

-304-

Account. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer shall make P&I Advances on the basis of the original terms of any Mortgage Loan, including Mortgage Loans subject to forbearance agreements or other temporary deferrals or payment accommodations, unless (a) the terms of the Mortgage Loan have been permanently modified to change or forgive a monetary obligation or (b) such advance has been determined to be non-recoverable.

(e)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall make an advance for Yield Maintenance Charges, Default Interest, late payment charges, Balloon Payments or any advance with respect to a Periodic Payment with respect to any Companion Loan and (ii) if an Appraisal Reduction Amount has been assessed with respect to any Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan, an Appraisal Reduction Amount has been made in accordance with the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement and the Master Servicer has notice of such Appraisal Reduction Amount), the interest portion of the P&I Advance in respect of such Mortgage Loan for the related Distribution Date shall be reduced (it being herein acknowledged that there shall be no reduction in the principal portion, if any, of such P&I Advance) to equal the product of (x) the amount of the interest portion of such P&I Advance for such Mortgage Loan for such Distribution Date without regard to this clause (ii), and (y) a fraction, expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which is equal to the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such Distribution Date, net of the related Appraisal Reduction Amount (or, in the case of a Whole Loan, the portion of such Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to the related Mortgage Loan), if any, and the denominator of which is equal to the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such Distribution Date. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the Periodic Payment due on the Maturity Date for a Balloon Mortgage Loan will be the Assumed Scheduled Payment for the related Distribution Date.

(f)                In no event shall either the Master Servicer or the Trustee be required to make a P&I Advance with respect to any Companion Loan.

Section 4.04        Allocation of Realized Losses. (a) On each Distribution Date, immediately following the distributions to be made on such date pursuant to Section 4.01, the Certificate Administrator shall calculate the amount of any Non-VRR Realized Losses. On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Balances of the Principal Balance Certificates will be reduced without distribution, as a write-off to the extent of any Non-VRR Realized Losses, if any, allocable to such Certificates with respect to such Distribution Date. Any such write-off shall be allocated first, to the Class J-RR Certificates, then, to the Class G-RR Certificates, then, to the Class F Certificates, then, to the Class E Certificates, then, to the Class D Certificates, then, to the Class C Certificates, then, to the Class B Certificates, then, to the Class A-S Certificates and then, pro rata (based on their respective Certificate Balances), to the Class A-1 and Class A-3 Certificates, in each case until the remaining Certificate Balances of such Classes of Certificates have been reduced to zero.

Any allocation of Non-VRR Realized Losses to a Class of Principal Balance Certificates shall be made by reducing the Certificate Balance thereof by the amount so allocated. Any Non-VRR Realized Losses so allocated to a Class of Principal Balance Certificates shall be allocated among the respective Certificates of such Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby. The allocation of Realized Losses shall constitute an allocation of losses and

-305-

other shortfalls experienced by the Trust. Reimbursement of previously allocated Realized Losses will not constitute distributions of principal for any purpose and will not result in an additional reduction in the Certificate Balance of the Class of Certificates in respect of which any such reimbursement is made. With respect to any Class of Principal Balance Certificates, to the extent any Nonrecoverable Advances (plus interest thereon) that were reimbursed from principal collections on the Mortgage Loans and previously resulted in a reduction of the Non-VRR Principal Distribution Amount are subsequently recovered on the related Mortgage Loan, the amount of such recovery will be added to the Certificate Balance of the Class or Classes of Principal Balance Certificates that previously were allocated Realized Losses, in the same sequential order as distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(b), in each case up to the amount of the unreimbursed Non-VRR Realized Losses allocated to such Class of Principal Balance Certificates. In the event that the amount of any subsequent recovery of Nonrecoverable Advances is added to the Aggregate Principal Distribution Amount and the Certificate Balance of any Class of Certificates, the amount of any Non-VRR Realized Losses allocated to such Class will be reduced by the amount of such recovery that was added to the Certificate Balance of such Class.

On each Distribution Date, immediately following the distributions to be made on such date pursuant to Section 4.01, the Certificate Administrator shall calculate the amount of any VRR Realized Losses and shall allocate such VRR Realized Losses to the Class RR Certificates by reducing the VRR Interest Balance of such Class. On each Distribution Date, to the extent any Nonrecoverable Advances (plus interest thereon) that were reimbursed from principal collections on the Mortgage Loans and previously resulted in a reduction of the VRR Principal Distribution Amount are subsequently recovered on the related Mortgage Loan, the amount of such recovery will be added to the VRR Interest Balance the Class RR Certificates that previously were allocated VRR Realized Losses, up to the amount of the unreimbursed VRR Realized Losses allocated to the VRR Interest. Any such allocations or recoveries will be deemed allocated to the Class LRR Uncertificated Interest such that, at all times, the Lower-Tier Principal Amount of the Class RR Certificates will equal the VRR Interest Balance of the Class RR Certificates.

(b)               With respect to any Distribution Date, any Realized Losses allocated to a Class of Principal Balance Certificates or the VRR Interest pursuant to Section 4.04(a) shall reduce the Lower-Tier Principal Amount of the Related Lower-Tier Regular Interest with respect thereto as a write-off.

Section 4.05        Appraisal Reduction Amounts; Collateral Deficiency Amounts. (a) For purposes of (x) determining the Controlling Class (and whether a Control Termination Event is continuing) and (y) determining the Voting Rights of the related Classes for purposes of removal of the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, Appraisal Reduction Amounts (with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, to the extent allocated to the related Mortgage Loan) will be allocated to each Class of Principal Balance Certificates and the VRR Interest as described below in this Section 4.05(a). Following receipt from the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer shall notify the Certificate Administrator of the amount of any Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to each Mortgage Loan (which notification may be satisfied through delivery of such information included in the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File or the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Amount Template included in the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package or such report mutually agreed upon between the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator). Based on information in its possession, the Certificate Administrator shall determine from time to time which Class of Certificates is the

-306-

Controlling Class. The Certificate Administrator shall provide notice of the identity of the Controlling Class as set forth in Section 3.23(l). With respect to any Appraisal Reduction Amount calculated for purposes of determining the Controlling Class, the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property will be determined on an “as-is” basis.

As of the first Determination Date following a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) becoming an AB Modified Loan, the Special Servicer shall calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent Appraisal obtained by the Special Servicer with respect to such Mortgage Loan and all other information relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount determination. The Master Servicer shall provide (via electronic delivery) the Special Servicer with information in its possession that is reasonably required to determine, redetermine, calculate or recalculate any Collateral Deficiency Amount for any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any Serviced Companion Loan using reasonable efforts to deliver such information within four (4) Business Days of the Special Servicer’s reasonable request. Upon obtaining knowledge that a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, the Master Servicer shall promptly request from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer the collateral deficiency amount for the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan (including the collateral deficiency amount allocable to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) calculated by such Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement. The Collateral Deficiency Amount for such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan will be (i) the collateral deficiency amount allocable to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan that was calculated by such Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Special Servicer, if any, or (ii) if such Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, only calculated the collateral deficiency amount allocable to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan or a Companion Loan (but did not calculate the collateral deficiency amount allocable to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the amount allocable to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan as determined by the Master Servicer (solely in reliance upon the collateral deficiency amount allocable to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan or a Companion Loan that was calculated by such Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable). The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such collateral deficiency amount calculation of the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, and shall not be responsible for making or verifying such calculation. Upon obtaining knowledge or receipt of notice by any other party to the PSA that a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, such party shall promptly notify the Master Servicer thereof. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer (solely with respect to Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans), the Trustee, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator will calculate or verify any Collateral Deficiency Amount, other than as set forth above.

For purposes of determining the Non-Reduced Interests, the Controlling Class, the occurrence of a Control Termination Event, and the Voting Rights of the related Classes for purposes of removal of the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, Appraisal Reduction Amounts allocated to a Mortgage Loan shall be allocated as follows: (i) the Non-VRR Percentage of any such Appraisal Reduction Amounts shall be allocated to the Principal Balance Certificates in reverse sequential order to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance thereof until the related

-307-

Certificate Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero (i.e., first, to the Class J-RR Certificates, then, to the Class G-RR Certificates, then, to the Class F Certificates, then, to the Class E Certificates, then, to the Class D Certificates, then, to the Class C Certificates, then, to the Class B Certificates, then, to the Class A-S Certificates, and finally, pro rata based on their respective interest entitlements, to the Class A-1 and Class A-3 Certificates), and (ii) the VRR Percentage of any such Appraisal Reduction Amounts shall be allocated to the VRR Interest, pro rata based on their respective VRR Interest Balances. In addition, for purposes of determining the Controlling Class and the occurrence of a Control Termination Event, the Non-VRR Percentage of any Collateral Deficiency Amounts allocated to a Mortgage Loan that is an AB Modified Loan shall be allocated to each Class of Control Eligible Certificates in reverse sequential order to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance thereof until the related Certificate Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero (i.e., first, to the Class J-RR Certificates, and then, to the Class G-RR Certificates, and finally, to the Class F Certificates). For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining the Controlling Class and the occurrence of a Control Termination Event, any Class of Control Eligible Certificates will be allocated the Non-VRR Percentage of both applicable Appraisal Reduction Amounts and applicable Collateral Deficiency Amounts, as described in this paragraph.

The Appraised Value of any applicable Mortgaged Property is required to be determined on an “as-is” basis for purposes of determining all Appraisal Reduction Amounts. The Special Servicer (in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or the Master Servicer (in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall promptly notify the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, and the Certificate Administrator of (i) any Appraisal Reduction Amount and (ii) any Collateral Deficiency Amount and any resulting Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount (which notification shall be satisfied through delivery of such information included in the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File, as to the Appraisal Reduction Amounts, and the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Amount Template, as to the Collateral Deficiency Amount, included in the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package, which shall be delivered simultaneously with the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File in accordance with Section 3.12(d)), and the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice of such Appraisal Reduction Amount, Collateral Deficiency Amount and any resulting Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount, as applicable, to the Certificate Administrator’s Website.

(b)               (i) The Holders of the majority of Voting Rights of any Class of Control Eligible Certificates, that is determined at any time of determination to no longer be the Controlling Class (any such Class, an “Appraised-Out Class”) as a result of an Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount in respect of such Class shall have the right, at their sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order (or, with respect to a Collateral Deficiency Amount calculation for a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, require the Master Servicer to request from the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer) a second Appraisal with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan for which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred or as to which there exists a Collateral Deficiency Amount (such Holders, the “Requesting Holders”). With respect to any such Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such second Appraisal to be (i) delivered within thirty (30) days from receipt of the Requesting Holders’ written request and (ii) prepared on an “as-is” basis by an MAI appraiser (provided that such MAI appraiser may not be the same MAI appraiser that provided the Appraisal in respect of which the Requesting Holders are requesting the Special Servicer to

-308-

obtain an additional Appraisal). With respect to any such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such second appraisal from the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer.

(ii)               Upon receipt of any supplemental Appraisal pursuant to clause (i) above, the Master Servicer (for Collateral Deficiency Amounts on Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans), the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer (for Appraisal Reduction Amounts on Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans to the extent provided for in the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement and applicable Co-Lender Agreement) and the Special Servicer (for Mortgage Loans other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) shall determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, whether, based on its assessment of such supplemental Appraisal, any recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or the Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, is warranted, and if so warranted, such Person shall recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, based on such supplemental Appraisal and (for Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) or Serviced Whole Loans) receipt of information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer from the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.05(a) or Section 4.05(c). If required by such recalculation, the Appraised-Out Class shall be reinstated as the Controlling Class and each other Appraised-Out Class shall, if applicable, have its related Certificate Balance notionally restored to the extent required by such recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, if applicable. In addition, the Holders of Certificates representing the majority of the Certificate Balance of any Appraised-Out Class shall have the right, at their sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order an additional Appraisal of any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan for which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred or as to which there exists a Collateral Deficiency Amount if an event has occurred at or with regard to the related Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties that would have a material effect on its Appraised Value, and the Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such Appraisal to be (i) delivered within thirty (30) days from receipt of the Requesting Holders’ written request and (ii) prepared on an “as-is” basis by an MAI appraiser; provided that the Special Servicer shall not be required to obtain such Appraisal if it determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that no events at or with regard to the related Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties have occurred that would have a material effect on the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties. The Holders of an Appraised-Out Class requesting any supplemental Appraisal pursuant to clause (i) above shall refrain from exercising any direction, control, consent and/or similar rights of the Controlling Class, until such time, if any, as the Class is reinstated as the Controlling Class, (such period beginning upon receipt by the Special Servicer of any request to obtain a supplemental Appraisal pursuant to clause (i) above to but excluding the date on which either (A) the Special Servicer determines that no recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount is warranted or (B) the Special Servicer recalculates the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount based on the supplemental Appraisal, the “Appraisal Review Period”). The rights of the Controlling Class during each Appraisal Review Period shall be exercised by the next most senior Control Eligible Certificates, if any.

(c)               With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Serviced Whole Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred (unless such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan has become a Corrected Loan (for such purposes taking into account any amendment or modification of such Mortgage Loan, any related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan)), the Special Servicer shall (1) within thirty (30) days of the end each 9-month period following the related Appraisal Reduction Event, and (2) upon its determination that the value of the related Mortgaged Property has materially changed, notify the Master Servicer of the occurrence of such 9-month period or determination and order an Appraisal (which may be an update of a prior Appraisal), the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Property Protection Advance or to the extent it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, an expense of the Trust, or conduct an internal valuation, as applicable and, promptly following receipt of any such Appraisal or performance of such valuation (or receipt of any Appraisal obtained in accordance with Section 4.05(b) above), shall deliver a copy thereof to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence of any Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) the Directing Holder. Based upon such Appraisal or internal valuation (or any Appraisal obtained in accordance with Section 4.05(b) above) and (for Mortgage Loans (other than Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) or Serviced Whole Loans) receipt of information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer from the Master Servicer necessary to calculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount that is either in the Master Servicer’s possession or reasonably obtainable by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer shall determine or redetermine, as applicable, and report to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence of any Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) the Directing Holder, the amount and calculation or recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, and such report shall be delivered in the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Amount Template format; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be liable for failure to comply with such duties insofar as such failure results from a failure of the Master Servicer to provide sufficient information to the Special Servicer to comply with such duties or failure by the Master Servicer to otherwise comply with its obligations hereunder. Such report shall also be forwarded by the Master Servicer, to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the Other Servicer of such Other Securitization into which the related Serviced Companion Loan has been sold, or to the holder of any related Serviced Companion Loan. If the Special Servicer is required to redetermine the Appraisal Reduction Amount, such redetermined Appraisal Reduction Amount shall replace the prior Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable. Prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan, the Special Servicer shall consult with the Directing Holder with respect to any Appraisal, valuation or downward adjustment in connection with an Appraisal Reduction Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 4.05(b), the Special Servicer will not be required to obtain an Appraisal or conduct an internal valuation, as applicable, with respect to a Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred to the extent the Special Servicer has obtained an Appraisal or conducted such a valuation (in accordance with requirements of this Agreement), as applicable, with respect to the related Mortgaged Property within the nine-month period immediately prior to the occurrence of

-310-

such Appraisal Reduction Event. Instead, the Special Servicer may use such prior Appraisal or valuation, as applicable, in calculating any Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan; provided that the Special Servicer has no knowledge of any material change to the related Mortgaged Property having occurred and affecting the validity of such Appraisal or valuation. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator shall calculate any Appraisal Reduction Amount.

The Master Servicer shall deliver electronically to the Special Servicer any information in its possession that is reasonably required to determine, calculate, redetermine or recalculate any Appraisal Reduction Amount, using reasonable efforts to deliver such information, within four (4) Business Days following the Special Servicer’s reasonable request therefor; provided, the Special Servicer’s failure to timely make such request shall not relieve the Master Servicer of its obligation to use reasonable efforts to provide such information to the Special Servicer within four (4) Business Days following the Special Servicer’s reasonable request.

(d)               Any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), any related Serviced Companion Loan and any Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, previously subject to an Appraisal Reduction Amount, has become a Corrected Loan (for such purposes taking into account any amendment or modification of such Mortgage Loan, any related Serviced Companion Loan and any Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable), and with respect to which no other Appraisal Reduction Event is continuing, such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan will no longer be subject to an Appraisal Reduction Amount and the related Appraisal Reduction Event shall cease to exist. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be calculated by the applicable party under and in accordance with and pursuant to the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement.

(e)               Each Serviced Whole Loan will be treated as a single Mortgage Loan for purposes of calculating an Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to the Mortgage Loan and Companion Loan(s) that comprise such Serviced Whole Loan. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of a Serviced AB Whole Loan will be allocated in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement or, if no allocation is specified in the related Co-Lender Agreement, then, first, to the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan (until its principal balance is notionally reduced to zero by such Appraisal Reduction Amounts) and second, pro rata to the related AB Mortgage Loan and any related Pari Passu Companion Loan. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan will be allocated in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement or, if no allocation is specified in the related Co-Lender Agreement, then, pro rata, between the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, based upon their respective Stated Principal Balances.

Administrator relating to the Distribution Date Statement, (B) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, relating to the reports being made available pursuant to Section 3.13(b), the Mortgage Loans (excluding any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or the related Mortgaged Properties or (C) the Operating Advisor relating to the Operating Advisor Annual Report or other reports prepared by the Operating Advisor or actions by the Special Servicer referenced in any Operating Advisor Annual Report (each, an “Inquiry”), and (ii) Privileged Persons may view Inquiries that have been previously submitted and answered, together with the answers thereto. Upon receipt of an Inquiry for the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, and in the case of any Inquiry relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, the Certificate Administrator shall forward the Inquiry to the appropriate Person (in the case of the Master Servicer to the following: AskMidland@Midlandls.com), in each case within a commercially reasonable period of time following receipt thereof. Following receipt of an Inquiry, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, unless such party determines not to answer such Inquiry as provided below, shall reply to the Inquiry, which reply of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator by electronic mail. In the case of an Inquiry relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Certificate Administrator shall make reasonable efforts to obtain an answer from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable; provided that the Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible for the content of such answer or any delay or failure to obtain such answer. The Certificate Administrator shall post (within a commercially reasonable period of time following preparation or receipt of such answer, as the case may be) such Inquiry and the related answer to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. If the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor determines, in its respective sole discretion, that (i) any Inquiry is beyond the scope of the topics described above, (ii) answering any Inquiry would not be in the best interests of the Trust and/or the Certificateholders, (iii) answering any Inquiry would be in violation of applicable law, the applicable Mortgage Loan documents or this Agreement, (iv) answering any Inquiry would materially increase the duties of, or result in significant additional cost or expense to, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, (v) answering any Inquiry would require the disclosure of Privileged Information (subject to the Privileged Information Exception), or (vi) answering any Inquiry is otherwise, for any reason, not advisable, it shall not be required to answer such Inquiry and, in the case of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of such determination. In addition, no party shall post or otherwise disclose any direct communications with the Directing Holder or a Risk Retention Consultation Party (in its capacity as Risk Retention Consultation Party) as part of its response to any Inquiries. The Certificate Administrator shall notify the Person who submitted such Inquiry in the event that the Inquiry will not be answered. Any notice by the Certificate Administrator to the Person who submitted an Inquiry that will not be answered shall include the following statement: “Because the Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Operating Advisor shall not answer an Inquiry if it determines, in its respective sole discretion, that (i) any Inquiry is beyond the scope of the topics described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (ii) answering any Inquiry would not be in the best interests of the Trust and/or the Certificateholders, (iii) answering any Inquiry would be in violation of

-312-

applicable law or the applicable Mortgage Loan documents, (iv) answering any Inquiry would materially increase the duties of, or result in significant additional costs or expenses to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or Operating Advisor, as applicable, (v) answering any Inquiry would require the disclosure of Privileged Information, or (vi) answering any Inquiry is otherwise, for any reason, not advisable, no inference should or may be drawn from the fact that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor has declined to answer the Inquiry.” Answers posted on the Investor Q&A Forum will be attributable only to the respondent, and shall not be deemed to be answers from any of the Depositor, the Underwriters or any of their respective Affiliates. None of the Underwriters, Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor or any of their respective Affiliates will certify to any of the information posted in the Investor Q&A Forum and no such party shall have any responsibility or liability for the content of any such information. The Certificate Administrator shall not be required to post to the Certificate Administrator’s Website any Inquiry or answer thereto that the Certificate Administrator determines, in its sole discretion, is administrative or ministerial in nature. The Investor Q&A Forum will not reflect questions, answers and other communications that are not submitted via the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall not be required to respond to any Inquiries from Certificateholders for which its response would require the Operating Advisor to provide information to such inquiring Certificateholders that they are otherwise not entitled to receive under the terms of this Agreement.

(b)               The Certificate Administrator shall make available to any Certificateholder and any Certificate Owner that is a Privileged Person, the Investor Registry. The “Investor Registry” shall be a voluntary service available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, where Certificateholders and Certificate Owners that are Privileged Persons can register and thereafter obtain information with respect to any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner that has so registered. Any person registering to use the Investor Registry will be required to certify that (a) it is a Certificateholder or a Certificate Owner and a Privileged Person and (b) it grants authorization to the Certificate Administrator to make its name and contact information available on the Investor Registry for at least forty-five (45) days from the date of such certification to Persons entitled to access to the Investor Registry. Such Person shall then be asked to enter certain mandatory fields such as the individual’s name, the company name and e-mail address, as well as certain optional fields such as address, phone, and Class(es) of Certificates owned. If any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner notifies the Certificate Administrator that it wishes to be removed from the Investor Registry (which notice may not be within forty-five (45) days of its registration), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly remove it from the Investor Registry. The Certificate Administrator will not be responsible for verifying or validating any information submitted on the Investor Registry, or for monitoring or otherwise maintaining the accuracy of any information thereon.

“Rating Agency Inquiry”), and (ii) view Rating Agency Inquiries that have been previously submitted and answered, together with the responses thereto. In addition, NRSROs may use the forum to submit requests (each such submission also, a “Rating Agency Inquiry”) to the Master Servicer for loan-level reports and other related information. Upon receipt of a Rating Agency Inquiry for the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, the 17g-5 Information Provider shall forward the Rating Agency Inquiry to the appropriate Person (in the case of the Master Servicer to the following: AskMidland@Midlandls.com), in each case within a commercially reasonable period of time following receipt thereof.

The 17g-5 Information Provider shall post (within a commercially reasonable period of time following receipt of such response) such Rating Agency Inquiry with the related response thereto (or such reports, as applicable) to the Rating Agency Q&A Forum and Document Request Tool. Any reports posted by the 17g-5 Information Provider in response to a Rating Agency Inquiry may be posted on a separate website or web page accessible by a link on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website.

The 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly thereafter post the Rating Agency Inquiry with the reason it was not answered to the Rating Agency Q&A Forum and Document Request Tool. The 17g-5 Information Provider will not be liable for the failure by any other such Person to so answer. Questions posted on the Rating Agency Q&A Forum and Document Request Tool shall not be attributed to the submitting NRSRO. Answers posted on the Rating Agency Q&A Forum and Document Request Tool will be attributable only to the respondent, and shall not be deemed to be answers from any other person.

In no case shall the Certificate Administrator be deemed to have obtained actual or constructive knowledge of the contents of, or information contained in, any Diligence File by virtue of posting such Diligence File to the Secure Data Room. In the event that any document or information is posted in error, the Certificate Administrator may remove such document or information from the Secure Data Room. The Certificate Administrator shall not have any obligation to produce physical or electronic copies of any document or information provided to it for posting to the Secure Data Room. The Certificate Administrator shall not be responsible or held liable for any other Person’s use or dissemination of the documents or information contained on the Secure Data Room; provided that such event or occurrence is not also a result of its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

(a) The Certificates will be substantially in the respective forms annexed hereto as Exhibit A-1 through and including Exhibit A-16, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Agreement or as may, in the reasonable judgment of the Certificate Registrar, be necessary, appropriate or convenient to comply, or facilitate compliance, with applicable laws, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required by law, or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers executing such Certificates, as evidenced by their execution thereof. The Class X Certificates will be issuable only in minimum Denominations of authorized initial Notional Amount of not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1.00 in excess of $1,000,000. The Registered Certificates (other than the Class X-A and Class X-B Certificates) will be issuable only in minimum Denominations of authorized initial Certificate Balance of not less than $10,000, and in integral multiples of $1.00 in excess thereof. The Non-Registered Certificates (other than the Class X-D, Class X-F and the Class R Certificates) will be issuable in minimum Denominations of authorized initial Certificate Balance of not less than $100,000, and in integral multiples of $1.00 in excess thereof; provided that the Class RR Certificates retained by DBNY and CREFI will be issuable in fractions of $1.00 in order to satisfy the Risk Retention Rule percentage requirements. If the Original Certificate Balance or initial Notional Amount, as applicable, of any Class does not equal an integral multiple of $1.00, then a single additional Certificate of such Class may be issued in a minimum denomination of authorized initial Certificate Balance or initial Notional Amount, as applicable, that includes the excess of (i) the Original Certificate Balance or initial Notional Amount, as applicable, of such Class over (ii) the largest integral multiple of $1.00 that does not exceed such amount. The Class R Certificates shall be issued, maintained and transferred in minimum Percentage Interests of 10% of such Class R Certificates and in integral multiples of 1% in excess thereof.

(b)               One authorized signatory shall sign the Certificates for the Certificate Registrar by manual or electronic signature. If an authorized signatory whose signature is on a Certificate no longer holds that office at the time the Certificate Registrar countersigns the Certificate, the Certificate shall be valid nevertheless. A Certificate shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Certificate Registrar (who may be the same officer who executed the Certificate) manually countersigns the Certificate. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Certificate has been executed and countersigned under this Agreement.

(c)               Until the expiration of the Transfer Restriction Period, the HRR Certificates and the Class RR Certificates shall only be held as Definitive Certificates in the Third Party Purchaser Safekeeping Account and the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account, respectively, by the Certificate Administrator (and the Holders of the HRR Certificates and the Class RR Certificates shall be registered on the Certificate Register), unless otherwise consented to by the Retaining Sponsor.

-316-

safekeeping and shall release the same only upon receipt of written instructions of the termination of the Transfer Restriction Period or of the Holder of such Retained Certificate’s intent to Transfer pursuant to Section 5.03(p), in each case in accordance with this Agreement, from the Holder of the applicable Retained Certificates and the Retaining Sponsor’s consent (subject to Section 5.01(d)), and in accordance with any authentication procedures as may be utilized by the Certificate Administrator. There shall be, and hereby is, established by the Certificate Administrator an account which will be designated the “Third Party Purchaser Safekeeping Account” and into which the HRR Certificates shall be held and which shall be governed by and subject to this Agreement. In addition, there shall be, and hereby is, established by the Certificate Administrator an account which will be designated the “Retained Interest Safekeeping Account” and into which the Class RR Certificates shall be held and which shall be governed by and subject to this Agreement. In addition, on and after the date hereof, the Certificate Administrator may establish any number of subaccounts to the Third Party Purchaser Safekeeping Account for the Holder of the HRR Certificates or to the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account for the Holders of the Class RR Certificates. The Retained Certificates to be delivered in physical form to the Certificate Administrator shall be delivered as set forth herein. No amounts distributable to the HRR Certificates or the Class RR Certificates shall be remitted to the Third Party Purchaser Safekeeping Account or the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account, but shall be remitted directly to the Holder of the applicable Retained Certificates in accordance with written instructions (which shall be in the form of Exhibit C to this Agreement) provided separately by the Holder of the applicable Retained Certificates to the Certificate Administrator. Under no circumstances by virtue of safekeeping the Retained Certificates shall the Certificate Administrator (i) be obligated to bring legal action or institute proceedings against any person on behalf of a Holder of the Retained Certificates or (ii) have any obligation to monitor, supervise or enforce the performance of any party under the Credit Risk Retention Compliance Agreements. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely with no obligation to verify, confirm or otherwise monitor the accuracy of any information included in any written instructions provided in connection with this Third Party Purchaser Safekeeping Account or the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account and shall have no liability in connection therewith, other than with respect to the Certificate Administrator’s obligation to obtain the Retaining Sponsor’s consent prior to any release of the Retained Certificates. The Certificate Administrator shall hold the Definitive Certificates representing the Retained Certificates at the below location, or any other location; provided the Certificate Administrator has given notice to the Holders of the applicable Retained Certificates of such new location:

On the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver written confirmation to the Depositor, the Retaining Sponsor and the Third Party Purchaser substantially in the form of Exhibit SS evidencing its receipt of the HRR Certificates and written confirmation to the Depositor, DBNY and CREFI substantially in the form of Exhibit UU evidencing its receipt of the Class RR Certificates.

-317-

The Certificate Administrator shall make available to each Holder of the Retained Certificates a statement of the Third Party Purchaser Safekeeping Account or a statement of Retained Interest Safekeeping Account, as applicable, as mutually agreed upon by the Certificate Administrator and the Holder of the applicable Retained Certificates, and in accordance with the Certificate Administrator’s policies and procedures. Any transfer of the Retained Certificates shall be subject to Article V of this Agreement.

(d)               In the event a Holder of Retained Certificates seeks to cause the release of any Retained Certificates from the Third Party Purchaser Safekeeping Account or the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account, as applicable, the Holder of such Retained Certificates shall deliver to the Certificate Administrator (i) a written request for such release in connection with a Transfer pursuant to Section 5.03(p) or in connection with the termination of the Transfer Restriction Period and (ii) a written request for the Retaining Sponsor’s consent to such release substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-5. Promptly upon receipt of such request for the Retaining Sponsor’s consent, the Certificate Administrator shall forward such request to the Retaining Sponsor, the Depositor and counsel via electronic mail to the addresses listed on such form (or such other method and/or address(es) as may hereafter be furnished by the Retaining Sponsor to the Certificate Administrator in writing). The Certificate Administrator may not consent to, or otherwise permit, any such release without obtaining the Retaining Sponsor’s countersigned request for consent; provided that if the Retaining Sponsor fails to respond (which response, for the avoidance of doubt, may include an acknowledgement of such request) in writing to the Certificate Administrator within ten (10) Business Days after the Retaining Sponsor’s receipt of any such written request for the Retaining Sponsor’s consent, such release will be deemed to have been approved by the Retaining Sponsor; provided, further, that such deemed consent shall not apply in connection with a determination of whether the Transfer Restriction Period has ended. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the release of any Retained Certificates pursuant to this Section 5.01(d) occurs in connection with the termination of the Risk Retention Rule and the Third Party Purchaser or a Holder of the Class RR Certificates desires to exchange its Retained Certificates for Book-Entry Certificates, the Third Party Purchaser or Holder of the Class RR Certificates, as applicable, must also comply with the Transfer provisions in Section 5.03(g) and obtain the consent of the Retaining Sponsor pursuant to this Section 5.01(d). Upon the release of such Retained Certificates from the Third Party Purchaser Safekeeping Account or the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account, as applicable, the Certificate Administrator’s obligations with respect thereto shall cease and terminate and the Certificate Administrator shall be released therefrom. The Certificate Administrator shall be indemnified and held harmless for any release in connection with the preceding, in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 8.03.

Section 5.02        Form and Registration. No Transfer of any Non-Registered Certificate shall be made unless that Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, and effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction which does not require such registration or qualification. If a Transfer (other than one by the Depositor to an Affiliate thereof) is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act, and under the applicable state securities laws, then either:

Persons in Offshore Transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Act shall initially be represented by a temporary Book-Entry Certificate in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons, substantially in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto (each a “Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate”), which shall be deposited on the Closing Date on behalf of the purchasers of the Non-Registered Certificates represented thereby with the Certificate Registrar, at its principal trust office, as custodian, for the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or the nominee of the Depository for the account of designated agents holding on behalf of Euroclear and/or Clearstream. Prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period, beneficial interests in each Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate may be held only through Euroclear or Clearstream. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate may be exchanged for an interest in the related Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate in the applicable form set forth as an exhibit hereto in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.03(f). During the Restricted Period, distributions due in respect of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate shall only be made upon delivery to the Certificate Registrar by Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, of a Non-U.S. Beneficial Ownership Certification. After the expiration of the Restricted Period, distributions due in respect of any beneficial interests in a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate shall not be made to the Holders of such beneficial interests unless exchange for a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate of the same Class is improperly withheld or refused. The aggregate Certificate Balance of a Temporary Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate or a Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Certificate Registrar, as custodian for the Depository, as hereinafter provided.

On the Closing Date, the Certificate Administrator shall execute, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, and the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to the Certificate Registrar the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificates, which shall be held by the Certificate Registrar for purposes of effecting the exchanges contemplated by the preceding paragraph. Computershare Trust Company, National Association is hereby initially appointed the Authenticating Agent with the power to act, on the Trustee’s behalf, in the authentication and delivery of the Certificates in connection with Transfers and exchanges as herein provided. If Computershare Trust Company, National Association is removed as Certificate Administrator, then Computershare Trust Company, National Association shall be terminated as Authenticating Agent.

(iii)                Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed Transferee under clause (ii) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer to such proposed Transferee shall be effected and such proposed Transfer shall not be registered on the Certificate Register; provided, however, the Certificate Registrar shall not be required to conduct any independent investigation to determine whether a proposed Transferee is a Permitted Transferee. Upon notice to the Certificate Registrar that there has occurred a Transfer to any Person that is a Disqualified Organization or an agent thereof (including a broker, nominee or middleman) in contravention of the foregoing restrictions, and in any event not later than sixty (60) days after a request for information from the Transferor of such Residual Ownership Interest or such agent, the Certificate Registrar agrees to furnish to the IRS and the Transferor of such Residual Ownership Interest or such agent such information necessary to the application of Section 860E(e) of the Code as may be required by the Code, including, but not limited to, the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions with respect to such Class R Certificate (or portion thereof) for periods after such Transfer. At the election of the Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Registrar may charge a reasonable fee for computing and furnishing such information to the Transferor or to such agent referred to above; provided, however, that such Persons shall in no event be excused from furnishing such information.

(o)               The Class R Certificates may only be transferred to and owned by Qualified Institutional Buyers.

(p)               (i) At all times during the Transfer Restriction Period, if a Transfer of the Retained Certificates is to be made, then the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register such Transfer unless it receives (and, upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) each of the following, sent to the Certificate Registrar and with a copy to each of the Retaining Sponsor and counsel at the addresses provided in Section 13.05: (A) Exhibit D-5 from the Holder of the applicable Retained Certificates instructing the Certificate Registrar of its intentions to release the Retained Certificates from the Third Party Purchaser Safekeeping Account or the Retained Interest Safekeeping Account, as applicable, and to Transfer such Retained Certificate, (B) a certification from such Certificateholder’s prospective Transferee substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-3, (C) a certification from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such Transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-4, (D) a W-9 completed by the Transferee

In each case, such vote shall be administered in accordance with the following procedures, unless different procedures are otherwise described herein with respect to a specific vote:

(b)               Any matter submitted to Certificateholders for a vote shall be announced in a notice prepared by the Certificate Administrator. Such notice shall include the record date determined by the Certificate Administrator for purposes of the vote and a voting deadline which shall be no less than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is distributed.

Notices delivered in this manner shall be considered delivered to all Holders regardless of whether any Holder actually receives the notice and ballot.

(c)               In connection with any vote administered pursuant to this Agreement, voting Holders shall be required to certify their holdings in the manner set forth on the ballot, unless a specific manner is otherwise provided herein.

Once a Holder has cast its vote, the vote may be changed or retracted on or before the vote deadline. Any changes or retractions shall be communicated by the Certificateholder to the Certificate Administrator in writing on a ballot. After the vote deadline has passed, votes may not be changed or retracted by any Holder unless the Holder wishing to change or retract its vote holds a sufficient

-331-

portion of the Voting Rights such that the Holder, by its vote alone, could approve or deny the proposition subject to a vote without taking into consideration the votes cast by any other Holder. Transferees or purchasers of any Class of Certificates are subject to and shall be bound by all votes of Holders of Certificates initiated or conducted prior to its acquisition of such Certificate.

The Certificate Administrator shall use its reasonable efforts to resolve any illegible or incomplete ballots received prior to the voting deadline. Illegible or incomplete ballots that are received on the voting deadline or that cannot be resolved by the voting deadline shall not be counted. Promptly after the votes are tabulated, the Certificate Administrator shall prepare a notice announcing the results of the vote. Such notice shall include the percentage of Voting Rights in favor of the proposition, the percentage against the proposition and the percentage abstaining. In addition, the notice will announce whether the proposition has been adopted by Certificateholders. The notice shall be distributed in accordance with the methods described in Section 5.09(b) above. The Certificate Administrator shall also include such notice on the Form 10-D prepared in connection with the distribution period that corresponds with the date such notice is distributed. All vote tabulations shall be final and the Certificate Administrator shall not, absent manifest error, re-tabulate the votes or conduct a new vote for the same proposition.

(e)               Any and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering any vote shall be borne by the Trust. The Certificate Administrator is under no obligation to advise Holders about the matter being voted on or answer questions other than process-related questions regarding the administration of the vote.

(f)                If any party to this Agreement believes a vote of Certificateholders is needed for some matter related to the administration of the Trust that is not specifically contemplated herein, such party may request the Certificate Administrator to conduct a vote and the Certificate Administrator will conduct the requested vote in accordance with these procedures. Unless specifically provided herein, all such votes require a majority of Certificateholders to carry a proposition.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor may remain the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or Operating Advisor, as applicable, under this Agreement after (x) being merged or consolidated

If, within sixty (60) days following the date of delivery of the Merger Notice to the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, the Depositor or depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, shall have failed to notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in writing of the Depositor’s determination, or depositor’s determination, in the case of an Other Securitization, to grant or withhold such consent, such failure shall be deemed to constitute a grant of such consent. If the conditions to the provisions in the second preceding sentence are not met, the Trustee may terminate, and if the conditions set forth in the third proviso of the second preceding sentence are not met the Trustee shall terminate, the applicable Surviving Entity’s servicing of the Mortgage Loans pursuant hereto, such termination to be effected in the manner set forth in Section 13.01.

The Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent of any of the foregoing shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with any legal or administrative action (whether in equity or at law) or claim relating to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loans, the Companion Loans or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense: (i) specifically required to be borne thereby pursuant to the terms hereof; (ii) incurred in connection with any breach of a representation or warranty made by it herein; (iii) incurred by reason of bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence in the performance of its obligations or duties hereunder,

If any such expenses, costs or liabilities relate to a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, then any subsequent recovery on that Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, will be used to reimburse the Trust for any amounts advanced for the payment of such expenses, costs or liabilities. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action, proceeding, hearing or examination and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust, and the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent), the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans or the

provided that, in the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by this Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any other matter requiring consent of the Directing Holder prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event in this Agreement (or any matter requiring consultation with the Directing Holder, a Risk Retention Consultation Party or the Operating Advisor), is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders (or, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the interest of the Certificateholders and the holders of any related Serviced Companion Loan) (as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loans)), the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable may take any such action without waiting for the Directing Holder’s response (or without waiting to consult with the Directing Holder, the Risk Retention Consultation Parties or the Operating Advisor, as the case may be), provided that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable provides the Directing Holder (or the Operating Advisor, if applicable) with prompt written notice following such action including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. Similarly, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, following the occurrence of an extraordinary event with respect to any related Mortgaged Property, or if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may take actions with respect to such Mortgaged Property before obtaining the consent of the Directing Holder if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, reasonably determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that failure to take such actions prior to such consent would materially and adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders and the holders of any related Serviced Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate nature of each Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan), and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has made a reasonable effort to contact the Directing Holder. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer is required to obtain the consent of the Controlling Class Representative for any of the foregoing actions during the continuance of a Control Termination

-350-

Event; provided, however, with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or an Excluded Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan, if a Control Termination Event is continuing, but for so long as no Consultation Termination Event has occurred, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to obtain the consent of the Directing Holder with respect to any of the Major Decisions or Asset Status Reports, but shall consult with the Directing Holder in connection with any Major Decision that it is processing or, in the case of the Special Servicer, any Asset Status Report (or any other matter for which the consent of the Directing Holder would have been required or for which the Directing Holder would have the right to direct the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer if no Control Termination Event had occurred and was continuing) and to consider alternative actions recommended by the Directing Holder in respect of such Major Decision or Asset Status Report (or such other matter). Such consultation will not be binding on the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer. In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives no response from the Directing Holder within ten (10) days following the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s written request for input (which request is required to include the related Major Decision Reporting Package) on any required consultation, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, will not be obligated to consult with the Directing Holder on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Directing Holder to respond shall not relieve the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, from consulting with the Directing Holder on any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or any other Mortgage Loan.

As used in clause (vii) of the definition of “Major Decision”, “performance”, “earn-out”, “holdback” and similar escrows and reserves refers to any escrow or reserve that is taken (in whole or in part) at the origination of the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan or in connection with any loan modification, the release of which is subject to the satisfaction of specifically identified financial or leasing conditions or the occurrence of a specifically identified event, in each case as set forth in the related loan documents and related to the related Mortgagor or Mortgaged Property.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, the applicable Loan-Specific Directing Holder shall, pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement, exercise any consent and consultation rights, and rights to provide direction to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, of the “Directing Holder” with respect to such Mortgage Loan as provided for in this Agreement until the related Servicing Shift Securitization Date.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 6.08(a), including, without limitation, the first proviso set forth at the conclusion of the second preceding paragraph, (a) the Special Servicer shall process all requests for any matter that constitutes a Major Decision with respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, (b) the Special Servicer shall process all requests for any matter that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer have mutually agreed to have the Master Servicer process such request in accordance with the terms and conditions reasonably agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, including the Special Servicer’s consent, (c) the Master Servicer shall process all requests for any matter that constitutes a Master Servicer Major Decision with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and (d) the Master Servicer shall process all requests for any matter that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision

-351-

with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) if the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer have mutually agreed to have the Master Servicer process such request in accordance with the terms and conditions reasonably agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, including the Special Servicer’s consent. Upon receiving a request for any matter that constitutes a Special Servicer Major Decision, the Master Servicer shall forward such request to the Special Servicer and, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer will process such request with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms and conditions reasonably agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, including the Special Servicer’s consent, the Special Servicer shall process such request and the Master Servicer will have no further obligation with respect to such request or the related Special Servicer Major Decision.

In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an applicable Excluded Loan, for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing, the Directing Holder (subject to any rights, if any, of the related Companion Holder to advise the Special Servicer with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement) may direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to a Mortgage Loan as the Directing Holder may deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made herein; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such direction or objection contemplated by this Section 6.08 may require or cause the Master Servicer or Special Servicer to violate any provision of any Mortgage Loan or related Co-Lender Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, applicable law, this Agreement, or the REMIC Provisions (and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, subject to the rights of the holders of the related Companion Loan), including without limitation the obligation of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trust or the Trustee to liability, or materially expand the scope of the responsibilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to act, or fail to act, in a manner which in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is not in the best interests of the Certificateholders.

In the event the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, determines that a refusal to consent by the Directing Holder or any advice from the Directing Holder, the Operating Advisor or a Risk Retention Consultation Party would cause the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan, applicable law or this Agreement, including without limitation, the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, shall disregard such refusal to consent or advise and notify the Directing Holder, the Operating Advisor or Risk Retention Consultation Parties, the Trustee and the Rating Agencies of its determination, including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. The taking of, or refraining from taking, any action by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in accordance with the direction of or approval of the Directing Holder or the Operating Advisor or a Risk Retention Consultation Party that does not violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan, applicable law or the Servicing Standard or any other provisions of this Agreement, will not result in any liability on the part of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer.

-352-

The Directing Holder shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that the Directing Holder shall not be protected against any liability to a Controlling Class Certificateholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties owed to the Controlling Class Certificateholders or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations or duties owed to the Controlling Class Certificateholders. By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees that the Directing Holder may take actions that favor the interests of one or more Classes of the Certificates including the Holders of the Controlling Class over other Classes of the Certificates, and that the Directing Holder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of some Classes of the Certificates, that the Directing Holder may act solely in the interests of the Controlling Class Certificateholders, including the Holders of the Controlling Class, that the Directing Holder does not have any duties or liability to the Certificateholders other than the Controlling Class, that the Directing Holder shall not be liable to any Certificateholder, by reason of its having acted solely in the interests of the Controlling Class Certificateholders, and that the Directing Holder shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Directing Holder or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

Each Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that each Risk Retention Consultation Party shall not be protected against any liability to the VRR Interest Owners that appointed such Risk Retention Consultation Party that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties owed to such VRR Interest Owners or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations or duties owed to such VRR Interest Owners. By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees that each Risk Retention Consultation Party may take actions that favor the interests of the VRR Interest over the Certificates, and that each Risk Retention Consultation Party may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of the Non-VRR Certificates, that each Risk Retention Consultation Party may act solely in the interests of a VRR Interest Owners, that each Risk Retention Consultation Party does not have any duties or liability to the Holders of Non-VRR Certificates, that each Risk Retention Consultation Party shall not be liable to any Holder of a Non-VRR Certificate, by reason of its having acted solely in the interests of a VRR Interest Owners, and that each Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted, and no Holder of a Non-VRR Certificate may take any action whatsoever against a Risk Retention Consultation Party or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

Any Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan, shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment. By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees that any such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan, may take actions that favor the interests of one or more classes of the certificates issued under the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement including the Holders of the controlling class under such Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement over other Classes of the Certificates, and that such Non-Serviced

-353-

Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of some Classes of the Certificates, that such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the controlling class under the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, that such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, shall not be liable to any Certificateholder, by reason of its having acted solely in the interests of the Holders of the controlling class under the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, and that the Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (i) during the continuance of a Control Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan), the Directing Holder shall have no right to consent to or direct any action taken or not taken by any party to this Agreement; (ii) during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Holder shall remain entitled to receive any notices, reports or information to which it is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and any other applicable party shall consult with the Directing Holder (other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) in connection with any action to be taken or refrained from taking to the extent set forth herein; and (iii) after the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and at any time with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan, the Directing Holder shall have no direction, consultation or consent rights hereunder and no right to receive any notices, reports or information (other than notices, reports or information required to be delivered to all Certificateholders) or any other rights as Directing Holder.

Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event with respect to any Major Decisions processed by the Special Servicer, the Special Servicer shall provide each Major Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor promptly after the Special Servicer receives the Directing Holder’s approval or deemed approval of such Major Decision Reporting Package; provided, however, that with respect to any non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, no Major Decision Reporting Package shall be required to be delivered (and the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts not to deliver such Major Decision Reporting Package) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event. During the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event (whether or not a Control Termination Event is continuing), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that is processing the related Major Decision shall provide each Major Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor simultaneously with the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s written request, as applicable, for the Operating Advisor’s input regarding the related Major Decision (which written request and Major Decision Reporting Package may be delivered in one notice), as set forth under Section 6.08. With respect to any particular Major Decision and/or related Major Decision Reporting Package or any Asset Status Report required to be delivered by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to the Operating Advisor, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall make available to the Operating Advisor a Servicing Officer with the relevant knowledge regarding the Mortgage Loan and such Major Decision and/or Asset Status Report in

-354-

order to address reasonable questions that the Operating Advisor may have relating to, among other things, such Major Decision and/or Asset Status Report.

In addition, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event is continuing, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor in connection with any proposed Major Decision that it is processing (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the Operating Advisor) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, provided that such consultation is on a non-binding basis. In the event that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer receives no response from the Operating Advisor within ten (10) days following the later of (i) its written request for input (which request is required to include the related Major Decision Reporting Package) on any required consultation and (ii) delivery of all such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor that is in possession of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, related to the subject matter of such consultation, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Operating Advisor to respond on any specific matters shall not relieve the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, from its obligation to consult with the Operating Advisor on any future matter with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or any other Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan related to the Controlling Class Representative (regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the related Excluded Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions that it is processing and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with the Controlling Class Representative or Operating Advisor’s right to consent or consult with respect to a Major Decision, as applicable, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer determines that action is necessary to protect the Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Certificateholders from potential harm if such action is not taken, or if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may take actions with respect to the Mortgaged Property before the expiration of the applicable period for the Operating Advisor or Controlling Class Representative to respond as described in this section, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer reasonably determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that failure to take such actions before the expiration of such period would materially adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Operating Advisor or the Controlling Class Representative, as applicable.

In addition, (i) for so long as no Consultation Termination Event is continuing, with respect to any Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (other than the Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or any applicable Excluded Loan), and (ii) during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than the Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or any applicable Excluded Loan), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer will also be required to consult with the Risk Retention Consultation Parties in connection with any Major Decision that it is processing (and such other

-355-

matters that are subject to consultation rights of the Risk Retention Consultation Parties pursuant to this Agreement) and to consider alternative actions recommended by the Risk Retention Consultation Parties in respect of such Major Decision; provided that such consultation is on a non-binding basis. In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives no response from a Risk Retention Consultation Party within 10 days following the later of (i) the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s written request for input (which request is required to include the related Major Decision Reporting Package) on any required consultation and (ii) delivery of all such additional information reasonably requested by the Risk Retention Consultation Parties related to the subject matter of such consultation, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, will not be obligated to consult with such Risk Retention Consultation Party on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of a Risk Retention Consultation Party to respond shall not relieve the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, using reasonable efforts to consult with such Risk Retention Consultation Party on any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or any other Mortgage Loan.

During the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative shall have no consultation or consent rights hereunder and shall have no right to receive any notices, reports or information (other than notices, reports or information required to be delivered to all Certificateholders) or any other rights as Controlling Class Representative.

(x)                          a Companion Loan Rating Agency has (A) qualified, downgraded or withdrawn its rating or ratings of one or more classes of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, or (B) placed one or more classes of Serviced Companion Loan Securities on “watch status” in contemplation of rating downgrade or withdrawal and, in the case of either of clauses (A) or (B), publicly citing servicing concerns with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as the sole or material factor in such rating action (and such qualification, downgrade, withdrawal or “watch status” placement has not been withdrawn by such Companion Loan Rating Agency within sixty (60) days of such event); or

(xi)                       any failure by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to deliver (a) any Exchange Act reporting items required to be delivered by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator under this Agreement (other than items to be delivered by a Sub-Servicer retained by a Mortgage Loan Seller) by the time required under this Agreement after any applicable grace periods or (b) any Exchange Act reporting items that a primary servicer, Sub-Servicer or Servicing Function Participant retained by the Master Servicer is required to deliver (any such primary servicer, Sub-Servicer or Servicing Function Participant will be terminated if it defaults in accordance with the provision of this clause (xii)) which failure (other than in the case of Form 8-K reporting requirements) is not remedied within three (3) Business Days.

(b)               If any Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (in either case, for purposes of this Section 7.01(b), the “Affected Party”)

-358-

shall occur and be continuing, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, the Trustee or the Depositor may, and at the written direction of (A)((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) the Directing Holder (solely with respect to the Special Servicer), or (B) the holders of Voting Rights evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights, the Trustee shall, terminate (and the Depositor may direct the Trustee to terminate each of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as applicable, upon five (5) Business Days’ written notice if there is a Servicer Termination Event under clause (iii)(A) above), by notice in writing to the Affected Party, with a copy of such notice to the Depositor and the Operating Advisor, all of the rights (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) and obligations of the Affected Party under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof (other than as a Certificateholder or Companion Holder, if applicable); provided, however, that the Affected Party shall be entitled to the payment of accrued and unpaid compensation and reimbursement through the date of such termination as provided for under this Agreement for services rendered and expenses incurred. From and after the receipt by the Affected Party of such written notice except as otherwise provided in this Article VII, all authority and power of the Affected Party under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee with respect to a termination of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to and under this Section 7.01, and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Affected Party, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each agree that if it is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(b), it shall promptly (and in any event no later than twenty (20) Business Days subsequent to its receipt of the notice of termination) provide the Trustee with all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, functions hereunder, and shall cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, responsibilities and rights (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer within five (5) Business Days to the Trustee for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be or should have been credited by the Master Servicer to the Collection Account or any Servicing Account (if it is the Affected Party), by the Special Servicer to the applicable REO Account (if it is the Affected Party) or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property (provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall, if terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(b) or pursuant to Section 7.01(d) (with respect to the Special Servicer), continue to be entitled to receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, whether in respect of Advances (in the case of the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer) or otherwise, and it and its Affiliates and the directors, managers, officers, members, employees and agents of it and its Affiliates shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.11 and Section 6.04 notwithstanding any such termination).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, if any Servicer Termination Event has occurred (A) with respect to the Master Servicer that affects the holder of the Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan, and the Master Servicer is not otherwise

-359-

terminated under this Agreement, then the holder of the Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan or its designees (if the holder of the Serviced Subordinate Companion Loan is the related Serviced AB Whole Loan Directing Holder) shall be entitled to direct the Trustee to appoint a Sub-Servicer solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan (or if the Mortgage Loan is currently being sub-serviced, to replace the current Sub-Servicer, but only if such original Sub-Servicer is in default under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement); and (B) the appointment (or replacement) of a Sub-Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan, as contemplated in clause (A) above, will in any event be subject to written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such appointment would not, in and of itself, cause a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then-current ratings assigned to the securities issued in connection with any securitization.

(c)               If the Master Servicer receives notice of termination under Section 7.01(b) solely due to a Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(a)(viii) or (ix), the Master Servicer shall have a forty-five (45) day period after such notice in which to find a successor master servicer qualified to act as Master Servicer hereunder in accordance with Section 6.05 and Section 7.02 and to which the Master Servicer can sell its rights to service the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement. During such forty-five (45) day period the Master Servicer may continue to serve as Master Servicer hereunder. In the event that the Master Servicer is unable, within such forty-five (45) day period, to cause a qualified successor master servicer to assume the duties of the Master Servicer hereunder, then and in such event, the Trustee shall assume the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder.

Notwithstanding Section 7.01(b), if any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer shall occur and be continuing that affects the Holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, then, so long as the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated, the Holder of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or the Other Trustee appointed under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, shall be entitled to direct the Trustee to terminate the Special Servicer with respect to the related Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan. Any Special Servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan cannot at any time be (without the prior written consent of the holder of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan) the Person (or Affiliate thereof) that was terminated at the direction of the holder of the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan. Any such Special Servicer under this paragraph shall meet the eligibility requirements of Section 7.02 and the eligibility requirements of the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and the appointment thereof shall comply with the provisions of Section 7.02. Any appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this paragraph shall be subject to the receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmations from each Companion Loan Rating Agency.

(d)               Subject to the right of the Operating Advisor to recommend the termination of the Special Servicer and recommend a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer and the right of the Certificateholders to approve the replacement of the Special Servicer with such Qualified Replacement Special Servicer pursuant to this Section 7.01(d), and subject to the rights of the holder of a related AB Subordinate Companion Loan pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement at any time prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan, the Directing Holder shall be entitled to terminate the rights (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) and obligations of the

-360-

Special Servicer under this Agreement, with or without cause, upon ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor; such termination to be effective upon the appointment of a successor special servicer meeting the requirements of this Section 7.01(d); provided that, with respect to a Servicing Shift Whole Loan, the ten (10) Business Days’ notice set forth in this Section 7.01(d) shall not apply, and any applicable notice period set forth in the related Co-Lender Agreement shall apply to the related Loan-Specific Directing Holder’s right to terminate the Special Servicer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement without cause with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan pursuant to the terms of the related Co-Lender Agreement. Upon a termination of the Special Servicer, the Directing Holder (other than with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan) shall appoint a successor special servicer; provided, however, that (i) such successor will meet the requirements set forth in Section 7.02, (ii) each Rating Agency delivers Rating Agency Confirmation and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, each Companion Loan Rating Agency delivers Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation and (iii) no replacement of the Special Servicer shall be effective until the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 hereof and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan.

During the continuance of a Control Termination Event and upon (a) the written direction of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates and/or Class RR Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances pursuant to Section 4.05 hereof) of the Principal Balance Certificates and Class RR Certificates on an aggregate basis requesting a vote to replace the Special Servicer with a new special servicer designated in such written direction, (b) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses (including any legal fees and any Rating Agency fees and expenses) to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote and which will not be additional expenses of the Trust and (c) delivery by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator and Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (which Rating Agency Confirmation shall be obtained at the expense of such Holders), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice to all Certificateholders of such request on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b) and concurrently by mail, and conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificateholders in such regard, which requisite affirmative votes shall be received within one hundred eighty (180) days of the posting of such notice. Upon the written direction of Holders evidencing at least 75% of a Quorum of Voting Rights or Holders evidencing more than 50% of the aggregate Voting Rights of each Class of Non-Reduced Interests on an aggregate basis, the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and appoint the successor special servicer (which must be a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer) designated by such Holders.

The Certificate Administrator shall include on each Distribution Date Statement a statement that each Certificateholder may (i) access such notices via the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (ii) register to receive electronic mail notifications when such notices are posted thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Certificateholders’ direction to replace the Special Servicer will not apply to any Serviced AB Whole Loan for which the holder of the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period.

-361-

An AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall have the right, for so long as no AB Control Appraisal Period is continuing, to replace the Special Servicer solely with respect to the related AB Whole Loan, so long as (A) each Rating Agency delivers a Rating Agency Confirmation; (B) the successor special servicer has assumed in writing (from and after the date such successor special servicer becomes the Special Servicer) all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Special Servicer under this Agreement from and after the date it becomes the Special Servicer as they relate to any AB Whole Loan pursuant to an assumption agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Administrator; and (C) the Certificate Administrator shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Administrator to the effect that (x) the designation of such replacement to serve as the Special Servicer is in compliance with this Agreement, (y) such replacement will be bound by the terms of this Agreement with respect to any AB Whole Loan, and (z) subject to customary qualifications and exceptions, this Agreement will be enforceable against such replacement in accordance with the terms hereof.

The parties hereto acknowledge that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this section, in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement, if a servicer termination event on the part of a Non-Serviced Special Servicer under a Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement remains unremedied and affects the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, and the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer has not otherwise been terminated, the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan (or the Trustee, acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) will be entitled to direct the related Non-Serviced Trustee to terminate the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The appointment (or replacement) of a special servicer with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, will in any event be subject to Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency. A replacement special servicer will be selected by the related Non-Serviced Trustee or, prior to a consultation termination event under the related Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement, by the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder; provided, however, that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Non-Serviced Special Servicer cannot at any time be the Person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was terminated at the direction of the holder of such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, without the prior written consent of the Controlling Class Representative.

If at any time the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that (i) the Special Servicer is not performing its duties as required hereunder or is otherwise not acting in accordance with the Servicing Standard, and (ii) the replacement of the Special Servicer would be in the best interest of the Certificateholders and the Companion Holders as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and Companion Holders constituted a single lender, then the Operating Advisor shall deliver to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, with a copy to the Special Servicer, a written recommendation in the form of Exhibit W attached hereto (which form may be modified or supplemented from time to time to cure any ambiguity or error or to incorporate any additional information, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided, further, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in such written report contravene any provision of this Agreement) detailing the reasons supporting its position (provided that the Operating Advisor shall not be permitted to recommend the replacement of the Special Servicer for any Whole Loan so long as the holder of the related Companion Loan is the Directing Holder under the related Co-Lender Agreement) (along with relevant information justifying its recommendation) and recommending

-362-

a suggested replacement special servicer (which shall be a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer). In such event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly notify each Certificateholder of the recommendation and post such notice and report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b), and by mail conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard. Upon (i) the affirmative vote of Voting Rights of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates and/or Class RR Certificates evidencing at least a majority of a Quorum (which, for this purpose is the Holders that (A) evidence at least 20% of the aggregate Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the respective Certificate Balances) of all Principal Balance Certificates and Class RR Certificates on an aggregate basis and (B) consist of at least three (3) Certificateholders or Certificate Owners that are not Risk Retention Affiliated with each other) and (ii) receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to the termination of the Special Servicer and the appointment of a successor special servicer recommended by the Operating Advisor following satisfaction of the foregoing clause (i), the Trustee (upon receipt of written confirmation from the Certificate Administrator, if the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee are different entities) shall (i) terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and appoint such successor Special Servicer and (ii) promptly notify such outgoing Special Servicer of the effective date of such termination. The reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses associated with obtaining such Rating Agency Confirmations and administering such vote and the Operating Advisor’s identification of a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer shall be a Trust Fund expense. In the event that the Certificate Administrator does not receive the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the quorum described in clause (i) of the preceding sentence within one hundred eighty (180) days of after the notice is posted to the Certificate Administrator’s Website, then the Trustee shall have no obligation to remove the Special Servicer. Prior to the appointment of any replacement special servicer, such replacement special servicer shall have agreed to succeed to the obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and to act as the Special Servicer’s successor hereunder. In the event the Special Servicer is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(d), the Directing Holder may not subsequently reappoint such terminated Special Servicer or any Risk Retention Affiliate thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall not be permitted to recommend the replacement of the Special Servicer with respect to an AB Whole Loan so long as the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period under the related Co-Lender Agreement.

No penalty or fee shall be payable to the terminated Special Servicer with respect to any termination pursuant to this Section 7.01(d). All costs of any such termination made by the Controlling Class Representative without cause shall be paid by the Holders of the Controlling Class.

For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnification of the Operating Advisor in Section 6.04 shall include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.04, any action or claim arising from, or relating to, the Operating Advisor’s determination under this Section 7.01(d) (regarding removal of the Special Servicer), or the result of the vote (regarding removal of the Special Servicer).

(e)               The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, as the case may be, from time to time, take all such reasonable actions as are required by it in accordance with the related Servicing Standard in order to prevent the Certificates from being placed on “watch” status

-363-

or downgraded due to servicing or special servicing, as applicable, concerns by any Rating Agency. In no event shall the remedy for a breach of the foregoing covenant extend beyond termination pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(viii) or (ix) and the resulting operation of Section 7.01(b) and (c). The operation of this subsection (e) shall not be construed to limit the effect of Section 7.01(a)(viii) or (ix).

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) if any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer affects a Serviced Companion Loan, the related holder of a Serviced Companion Loan or the rating on any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, and if the Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated, or (2) if a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer affects only a Serviced Companion Loan, the related holder of a Serviced Companion Loan or the rating on any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, then the Master Servicer may not be terminated by or at the direction of the related holder of such Serviced Companion Loan or the holders of any certificates backed, wholly or partially, by such Serviced Companion Loan, but upon the written direction of the related holder of such Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer shall be required to appoint a Sub-Servicer that will be responsible for servicing the related Serviced Whole Loan; provided that such Sub-Servicer meets the eligibility requirements of a successor master servicer as described under Section 6.05 and Section 7.02.

(g)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.01, with respect to any Excluded Special Servicer Loan, if any, the Special Servicer shall resign as Special Servicer of that Excluded Special Servicer Loan. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Holder shall be entitled to select an Excluded Special Servicer, as successor to the resigning Special Servicer, for the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan in accordance with this Agreement, unless such Excluded Special Servicer Loan is also an applicable Excluded Loan. During the continuance of a Control Termination Event or if at any time the applicable Excluded Special Servicer Loan is also an applicable Excluded Loan, the resigning Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to select the related Excluded Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall not have any liability with respect to the actions or inactions of the applicable Excluded Special Servicer or with respect to the identity of the applicable Excluded Special Servicer. It shall be a condition to any such appointment that (i) the Rating Agencies confirm that the appointment would not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any of their then-current ratings of the Certificates and the equivalent from each NRSRO hired to provide ratings with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, (ii) the related Excluded Special Servicer is a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer and (iii) the related Excluded Special Servicer delivers to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator and any applicable Other Depositor or applicable Other Certificate Administrator, the information, if any, required under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act regarding itself in its role as Excluded Special Servicer.

If at any time the Special Servicer is no longer a Borrower Party (including, without limitation, as a result of the related Mortgaged Property becoming an REO Property) with respect to an Excluded Special Servicer Loan, (1) the related Excluded Special Servicer shall resign, (2) the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan shall no longer be an Excluded Special Servicer Loan, (3) the Special Servicer shall become the Special Servicer again for such related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and (4) the Special Servicer shall be entitled to all special

-364-

servicing compensation with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan earned during such time on and after such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan is no longer an Excluded Special Servicer Loan.

The applicable Excluded Special Servicer shall perform all of the obligations of the Special Servicer for the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan and shall be entitled to all special servicing compensation with respect to such Excluded Special Servicer Loan earned during such time as the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan is an Excluded Special Servicer Loan (provided that the Special Servicer shall remain entitled to all other special servicing compensation with respect all Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans that are not Excluded Special Servicer Loans during such time).

If a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer, a related Excluded Special Servicer, or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has actual knowledge that a Mortgage Loan is no longer an applicable Excluded Loan, an Excluded Controlling Class Loan or an Excluded Special Servicer Loan, as applicable, the Master Servicer, the related Excluded Special Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall provide prompt written notice thereof to each of the other parties to this Agreement.

Section 7.02        Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. On and after the time the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as the case may be, either resigns pursuant to subsection (a) of the first sentence of Section 6.05 or receives a notice of termination for cause pursuant to Section 7.01(b), and provided that no acceptable successor has been appointed within the time period specified in Section 7.01(c), the Trustee shall be the successor to such party, until such successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is appointed as provided in this Section 7.02 or by the Directing Holder as provided in Section 7.01(d), as applicable, in all respects in its capacity as Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to, and have the benefit of, all of the rights, (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) benefits, responsibilities, duties, liabilities and limitations on liability relating thereto and that arise thereafter placed on or for the benefit of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the terminated party’s failure under Section 7.01 to provide information or moneys required hereunder shall not be considered a default by such successor hereunder. The appointment of a successor master servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Master Servicer which may have arisen prior to its termination as Master Servicer, and the appointment of a successor special servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Special Servicer which may have arisen prior to its termination as Special Servicer. The Trustee in its capacity as successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not be liable for any of the representations and warranties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer respectively, herein or in any related document or agreement, for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or for any losses incurred by the predecessor Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.06 hereunder, nor shall the Trustee be required to purchase any Mortgage Loan hereunder solely as a result of its obligations as successor master servicer or special servicer, as the case may be. Subject to Section 3.11, as compensation therefor, the Trustee as successor master servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fees and all fees relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Companion Loans which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master

-365-

Servicer had continued to act hereunder, including but not limited to any income or other benefit from any Permitted Investment pursuant to Section 3.06, and subject to Section 3.11, and the Trustee as successor to the Special Servicer shall be entitled to the Special Servicing Fees to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had continued to act hereunder. Should the Trustee succeed to the capacity of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Trustee shall be afforded the same standard of care and liability as the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder notwithstanding anything in Section 8.01 to the contrary, but only with respect to actions taken by it in its role as successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as the case may be, and not with respect to its role as Trustee hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to act as successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as applicable, or shall, if it is unable to so act, or if the Trustee is not approved as a servicer by each Rating Agency, or if, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Holder or the holders of Voting Rights, as applicable, evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights, so direct in writing to the Trustee, promptly appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing institution which meets the criteria set forth in Section 6.05 and otherwise herein, as the successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder. No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder shall be effective until (i) the assumption in writing by the successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of all its responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder that arise thereafter, (ii) upon receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmations from each Companion Loan Rating Agency, (iii) which appointment has been approved (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) by the Directing Holder, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld and (iv) the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 hereof and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder, unless the Trustee shall be prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as herein above provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as described herein, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation with respect to a successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as the case may be, shall be in excess of that permitted the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder. The Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (whichever is not the terminated party) and such successor shall take applicable action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Any costs and expenses associated with the transfer of the servicing function (other than with respect to a termination without cause) under this Agreement shall be borne by the predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable. If such predecessor Master Servicer or Special Servicer (as the case may be) has not reimbursed the party requesting such termination or the successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer for such expenses within ninety (90) days after the presentation of reasonable documentation, such expense shall be reimbursed by the Trust; provided that the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of its liability for such expenses. If and to the extent that the

-366-

terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer has not reimbursed such costs and expenses, the party requesting such termination shall have an affirmative obligation to take all reasonable actions to collect such expenses on behalf of the Trust. In the event of a termination without cause, such costs and expenses shall be borne by the party requesting such termination, or as otherwise set forth herein; provided that the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall not bear any such costs and expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Trustee is terminating the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in accordance with this Agreement at the direction of any party or parties permitted to direct the Trustee to so terminate the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, the Trustee shall not have any liability for such expenses pursuant to this paragraph.

Section 7.03        Notification to Certificateholders. (a) Upon any resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 6.05, any termination of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 or any appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02, the Certificate Administrator shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.

(b)               Not later than the later of (i) sixty (60) days after the occurrence of any event which constitutes or, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a Servicer Termination Event and (ii) five (5) days after the Certificate Administrator would be deemed to have notice of the occurrence of such an event in accordance with Section 8.02(vii), the Certificate Administrator shall transmit by mail to the Depositor and all Certificateholders (and, if a Serviced Whole Loan is affected, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder) notice of such occurrence, unless such default shall have been cured.

Section 7.04        Waiver of Servicer Termination Events. A Servicer Termination Event may be waived by Certificateholders evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the aggregate Voting Rights of the Certificates (and, if such Servicer Termination Event is on the part of the Special Servicer with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan only, by the related Serviced Companion Noteholder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) a Servicer Termination Event under clause (i) and clause (ii) of Section 7.01(a) may be waived only with the consent of all of the Certificateholders of the affected Classes and any Serviced Companion Noteholder affected by such Servicer Termination Event, and (2) a Servicer Termination Event under clause (iii) or clause (xii) of Section 7.01(a) related to Exchange Act reporting may be waived only with the consent of the Depositor and any Serviced Companion Noteholder affected by such Servicer Termination Event. Upon any such waiver of a Servicer Termination Event, such Servicer Termination Event shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. Upon any such waiver of a Servicer Termination Event by Certificateholders, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with enforcement action taken with respect to such Servicer Termination Event prior to such waiver from the Trust. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Servicer Termination Event or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, for purposes of waiving any Servicer Termination Event pursuant to this Section 7.04, any Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor shall be entitled to the same Voting Rights with respect to the matters described above as they would if any other Person held such Certificates.

Section 7.05        Trustee as Maker of Advances. In the event that the Master Servicer fails to fulfill its obligations hereunder to make any Advances and such failure remains uncured, the Trustee shall perform such obligations (x) within five (5) Business Days following such failure by the Master Servicer with respect to Property Protection Advances resulting in a Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(a)(iii) hereof to the extent a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such failure with respect to such Property Protection Advances and (y) by noon, New York City time, on the related Distribution Date with respect to P&I Advances pursuant to the Certificate Administrator’s notice of failure pursuant to Section 4.03(a) unless such failure has been cured. With respect to any such Advance made by the Trustee, the Trustee shall succeed to all of the Master Servicer’s rights with respect to Advances hereunder, including, without limitation, the Master Servicer’s rights of reimbursement and interest on each Advance at the Reimbursement Rate, and rights to determine that a proposed Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Property Protection Advance, as the case may be, (without regard to any impairment of any such rights of reimbursement caused by such Master Servicer’s default in its obligations hereunder); provided, however, that if Advances made by the Trustee and the Master Servicer shall at any time be outstanding, or any interest on any Advance shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay such Advances and the interest thereon hereunder shall be applied entirely to the Advances outstanding to the Trustee, until such Advances shall have been repaid in full, together with all interest accrued thereon, prior to reimbursement of the Master Servicer for such Advances. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any notice given with respect to a Nonrecoverable Advance hereunder.

The Certificate Administrator shall post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b) and shall provide notice of such event to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor and the 17g-5 Information Provider, which shall post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

Section 8.10        Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Fund or property securing the same may at the time be located, the Master Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of a request to do so, or in case a Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such

-378-

appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of a co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08 hereof. All co-trustee fees shall be payable out of the Trust Fund.

(b)               In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee pursuant to this Section 8.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Trustee.

(c)               Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then-separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.

(d)               Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

(e)               The appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee under this Section 8.10 shall not relieve the Trustee of its duties and responsibilities hereunder.

The Custodian (other than the initial Custodian) shall be a depository institution subject to supervision by federal or state authority, shall have combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and shall be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File. The Custodian shall be subject to the same obligations and standard of care as would be imposed on the Certificate Administrator hereunder in connection with the retention of Mortgage Files directly by the Certificate Administrator. Upon termination or resignation of the Custodian, the Certificate Administrator may appoint another Custodian meeting the foregoing requirements. The appointment of one or more Custodians by the Certificate Administrator shall not relieve the Certificate Administrator from any of its obligations hereunder, and the Certificate Administrator shall remain responsible for all acts and omissions of any Custodian other than the initial

-379-

Custodian. Any Custodian appointed hereunder must maintain a fidelity bond and errors and omissions policy in an amount customary for Custodians which serve in such capacity in commercial mortgage loan securitization transactions, or may self-insure.

-383-

P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date hereof.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right, to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund; provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360, as contemplated by clause (iii) of the first paragraph of this Section 9.01 by giving written notice to all the parties hereto no later than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of exchange. In the event that the Sole Owner elects to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust in accordance with the preceding sentence, such Sole Owner, not later than the Distribution Date on which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur, shall deposit in the Collection Account an amount in immediately available funds equal to all amounts due and owing to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator hereunder through the date of the liquidation of the Trust that may be withdrawn from the Collection Account, or an escrow account acceptable to the respective parties hereto, pursuant to Section 3.05(a) or that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a), but only to the extent that such amounts are not already on deposit in the Collection Account. In addition, the Master Servicer shall transfer all amounts required to be transferred to the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on the Master Servicer Remittance Date related to such Distribution Date in which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur from the Collection Account pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 3.04(b) (provided, however, that if a Serviced Whole Loan is secured by REO Property, the portion of the above-described purchase price allocable to such Trust’s portion of REO Property shall initially be deposited into the related REO Account). Upon confirmation that such final deposits have been made and following the surrender of all its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) on the applicable Distribution Date, the Custodian shall, upon receipt of a Request for Release from the Master Servicer, release or cause to be released to the Sole Owner or any designee thereof, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments furnished to it by the Sole Owner as shall be necessary to effectuate transfer of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties remaining in the Trust Fund, and the Trust shall be liquidated in accordance with Section 9.02. Solely for federal income tax purposes, the Sole Owner shall be deemed to have purchased the assets of the Lower-Tier REMIC for an amount equal to the remaining Certificate Balance of the Principal Balance Certificates, plus accrued, unpaid interest with respect thereto, and the Certificate Administrator shall credit such amounts against amounts distributable in respect of such Certificates and Related Lower-Tier Regular Interests.

The obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Companion Paying Agent shall terminate with respect to any Companion Loan to the extent (i) its

-384-

related Serviced Mortgage Loan has been paid in full or is no longer part of the Trust Fund and (ii) no amounts payable by the related Companion Holder to or for the benefit of the Trust or any party hereto in accordance with the related Co-Lender Agreement remain due and owing.

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of the first paragraph of this Section 9.01 by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, and the other parties hereto no later than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of purchase; provided, however, that the Holders of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, or the Holders of the Class R Certificates may so elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund only on or after the first Distribution Date on which (A) the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Preliminary Statement. This purchase shall terminate the Trust and retire the then outstanding Certificates. In the event that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer purchases, or the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates purchase, all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as applicable, shall deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account not later than the Master Servicer Remittance Date relating to the Distribution Date on which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur, an amount in immediately available funds equal to the above-described purchase price (exclusive of any portion thereof payable to any Person other than the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 3.05(a), which portion shall be deposited in the Collection Account). In addition, the Master Servicer shall transfer to the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account all amounts required to be transferred thereto on such Master Servicer Remittance Date from the Collection Account pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 3.04(b), together with any other amounts on deposit in the Collection Account that would otherwise be held for future distribution. Upon confirmation that such final deposits and payments have been made, the Custodian shall release or cause to be released to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as applicable, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments furnished to it by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as applicable, as shall be necessary to effectuate transfer of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties remaining in the Trust Fund.

For purposes of this Section 9.01, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class shall have the first option to terminate the Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC, then the Special Servicer then the Master Servicer, and then the Holders of the Class R Certificates. For purposes of this Section 9.01, the Directing Holder with the consent of the Holders of the Controlling Class, shall act on behalf of the Holders of the Controlling Class in purchasing the assets of the Trust and terminating the Trust.

-385-

Notice of any termination pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall be given promptly by the Certificate Administrator by letter to the Certificateholders, each Loan-Specific Directing Holder, each Serviced Companion Noteholder and the 17g-5 Information Provider in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.13(c) (who shall promptly post a copy of such additional notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.13(c)) and, if not previously notified pursuant to this Section 9.01, to the other parties hereto mailed (a) in the event such notice is given in connection with the purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, not earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th day of the month next preceding the month of the final distribution on the Certificates, or (b) otherwise during the month of such final distribution on or before the P&I Advance Determination Date in such month, in each case specifying (i) the Distribution Date upon which the Trust will terminate and final payment of the Certificates will be made, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location therein designated.

After transferring the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and the amount of any Yield Maintenance Charges distributable to the Regular Certificates and the VRR Interest pursuant to Section 4.01(f) to the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, in each case pursuant to Section 3.04(b), as applicable, and upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates by the Certificateholders on the final Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to each Certificateholder so presenting and surrendering its Certificates (i) such Certificateholder’s Percentage Interest of that portion of the amounts then on deposit in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account that are allocable to payments on the VRR Interest and the Class of Regular Certificates so presented, (ii) any remaining amounts of Yield Maintenance Charges distributable to the Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates or the VRR Interest pursuant to Section 4.01(f), and (iii) any remaining amount shall be distributed to the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest or the Class UR Interest, as applicable. Amounts transferred from the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account to the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account as of the final Distribution Date, shall be distributed in termination of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Class LR Interest in accordance with Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(b), Section 4.01(e), Section 4.01(f), and Section 4.01(g), as applicable. Any funds not distributed on such Distribution Date shall be set aside and held uninvested in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders not presenting and surrendering their Certificates in the aforesaid manner and shall be disposed of in accordance with this Section 9.01 and Section 4.01(j).

Section 9.02        Additional Termination Requirements. (a) In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer purchases, or the Holders of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates purchase, all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as provided in Section 9.01, the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC, as applicable, shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements, which meet the definition of a “qualified liquidation” in Section 860F(a)(4) of the Code:

ADDITIONAL REMIC PROVISIONS

Section 10.01    REMIC Administration. (a) The Certificate Administrator shall make elections or cause elections to be made to treat each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the Code and, if necessary, under Applicable State and Local Tax Law.

For the purposes of the REMIC election in respect of the Upper-Tier REMIC, each Class of Regular Certificates and the VRR Interest shall be designated as a class of “regular interests” and the Class UR Interest shall be designated as the sole class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC. For purposes of the REMIC election in respect of the Lower-Tier REMIC, each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests shall be designated as a class of “regular interests” and the Class LR Interest shall be designated as the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC. None of the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall permit the creation of any “interests” (within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code) in any Trust REMIC other than the foregoing interests.

(b)               The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “startup day” (“Startup Day”) of each Trust REMIC within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.

(c)               The Certificate Administrator shall act on behalf of each Trust REMIC in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving either such Trust REMIC and shall represent each such Trust REMIC in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto. The legal expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ or accountants’ fees, and costs of any such proceeding and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses of the Trust and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans and any

-387-

REO Properties on deposit in the Collection Account as provided by Section 3.05(a) unless such legal expenses and costs are incurred by reason of the Certificate Administrator’s willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence. The Certificate Administrator shall be the “partnership representative” (within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code) of each Trust REMIC.

(d)               The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared and shall file, or cause to be filed, all of the Tax Returns that it determines are required with respect to each Trust REMIC created hereunder, and shall cause the Trustee to sign (and the Trustee shall timely sign) such Tax Returns in a timely manner. The ordinary expenses of preparing such returns shall be borne by the Certificate Administrator without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed with the IRS, on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC, an application for a taxpayer identification number for such Trust REMIC on IRS Form SS-4 or obtain such number by other permissible means. The Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for the preparation of the related IRS Form W-9, if such form is requested. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the information contained therein and is hereby directed to execute such IRS Form W-9; provided, however, the Certificate Administrator shall also be directed to execute such IRS Form W-9 (in lieu of the Trustee) if permitted by applicable Treasury regulations.

(e)               The Certificate Administrator shall provide or cause to be provided (i) to any Transferor of a Class R Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the Transfer of such Class R Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified Organization, or in the case of a Transfer to an agent thereof, to such agent, (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or the REMIC Provisions including reports relating to interest, original issue discount and market discount or premium (using the Prepayment Assumption) and (iii) to the IRS, an IRS Form 8811, within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date for each Trust REMIC.

(f)                The Certificate Administrator shall take such actions and shall cause the Trust to take such actions as are reasonably within the Certificate Administrator’s control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein as shall be necessary to maintain the status of each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and the Trustee shall assist the Certificate Administrator to the extent reasonably requested by the Certificate Administrator to do so. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall knowingly or intentionally take any action, cause the Trust to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code, but not including the tax on “net income from foreclosure property”) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Certificate Administrator receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or, if such party fails to pay such expense, and the Certificate Administrator determines that taking such action is in the best interest of the Trust and the Certificateholders, at the expense of the Trust, but in no event at the expense of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with

-388-

respect to the Trust or any Trust REMIC created hereunder, cause the loss of such status or, unless the Certificate Administrator determines in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust against such tax, result in the imposition of such a tax (not including a tax on “net income from foreclosure property”). The Trustee shall not take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Certificate Administrator has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action. The Certificate Administrator may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take the action not expressly permitted by this Agreement, but in no event at the expense of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee. At all times as may be required by the Code, the Certificate Administrator will to the extent within its control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein, maintain substantially all of the assets of each Trust REMIC as Qualified Mortgages and “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(g)               In the event that any applicable federal, state or local tax, including interest, penalties or assessments, additional amounts or additions to tax, is imposed on any Trust REMIC, such tax shall be charged against amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the Certificates, except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 10.01(g); provided that with respect to the estimated amount of tax imposed on any “net income from foreclosure property” pursuant to Section 860G(c) of the Code or any similar tax imposed by a state or local tax authority, the Special Servicer shall retain in the related REO Account a reserve for the payment of such taxes in such amounts and at such times as it shall deem appropriate (or as advised by the Certificate Administrator in writing), and shall remit to the Master Servicer such reserved amounts as the Master Servicer shall request in order to pay such taxes. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and to actually pay, such tax as is estimated to be legally owed by any Trust REMIC (but such authorization shall not prevent the Certificate Administrator from contesting, at the expense of the Trust (other than as a consequence of a breach of its obligations under this Agreement), any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The Certificate Administrator is hereby authorized to and shall segregate, into a separate non-interest bearing account, the net income from any “prohibited transaction” under Section 860F(a) of the Code or the amount of any taxable contribution to any Trust REMIC after the Startup Day that is subject to tax under Section 860G(d) of the Code and use such income or amount, to the extent necessary, to pay such prohibited transactions tax. To the extent that any such tax (other than any such tax paid in respect of “net income from foreclosure property”) is paid to the IRS or applicable state or local tax authorities, the Certificate Administrator shall retain an equal amount from future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of Class R Certificates (as applicable) and shall distribute such retained amounts, (x) to the Lower-Tier REMIC to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses arising therefrom, (y) in the case of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, to the Upper-Tier REMIC to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Non-VRR Realized Losses or VRR Realized Losses, as applicable, arising therefrom and then to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest in the manner specified in Section 4.01(d) and (y) in the case of the Upper-Tier REMIC, to the Holders of the Principal Balance Certificates and the VRR Interest in the manner specified in Section 4.01(a) and Section 4.01(b), to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses arising therefrom and then to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the

-389-

Class UR Interest. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be responsible for any taxes imposed on any Trust REMIC except to the extent such taxes arise as a consequence of a breach of their respective obligations under this Agreement which breach constitutes willful misconduct, bad faith, or negligence by such party.

(h)               The Certificate Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain or cause to be maintained books and records with respect to each Trust REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual basis or as otherwise may be required by the REMIC Provisions.

(i)                 Following the Startup Day, neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Trustee shall accept any contributions of assets to any Trust REMIC unless the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to make such contribution) to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in such Trust REMIC will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

(j)                 Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Trustee shall enter into any arrangement by which the Trust or any Trust REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit the Trust or any Trust REMIC to receive any income from assets other than Qualified Mortgages or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(k)               Solely for the purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” of the Regular Certificates, the VRR Interest and the Lower-Tier Regular Interests is the Rated Final Distribution Date.

(l)                 None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall sell, dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection with (i) the default, imminent default or foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust, (iii) the termination of the Trust pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement or (iv) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or Article III of this Agreement) or acquire any assets for the Trust or any Trust REMIC or sell or dispose of any investments in the Collection Account or the applicable REO Account for gain unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel that such sale, disposition or substitution will not (a) affect adversely the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (b) unless the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, has determined in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust against such tax, cause the Trust or any Trust REMIC to be subject to a tax on “prohibited transactions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

(m)             The Certificate Administrator’s authority under this Agreement includes the authority to make, and the Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to make, any elections allowed under the Code (i) to avoid the application of Section 6221 of the Code (or successor provisions) to any Trust REMIC and (ii) to avoid payment by any Trust REMIC under Section 6225 of the Code (or successor provisions) of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on any Holder of Class R Certificate, past or present. Each Holder of a Class R Certificate agrees, by acquiring such Certificate, to any such elections.

(b)               The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each furnish such reports, certifications and information, and upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, access to such books and records maintained thereby, as may relate to the Certificates or the Trust and as shall be reasonably requested by the Certificate Administrator in order to enable it to perform its duties hereunder.

Each REMIC Administrator must be acceptable to the Certificate Administrator and must be organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State and be subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the purpose of Article XI of this Agreement is to facilitate compliance by the Depositor with the provisions of Regulation AB and the related rules and regulations of the Commission. The Depositor shall not exercise its rights to request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions other than in reasonable good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and, in each case, the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. The parties hereto acknowledge that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff, and agree to comply with requests made by the Depositor in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of such evolving interpretations of Regulation AB (to the extent such interpretations require compliance and are not “grandfathered”). In connection with the Benchmark 2024-V6 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Custodian and the Certificate Administrator shall cooperate fully with the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, to deliver or make available to the Depositor or the Certificate Administrator (including any of its assignees or designees), any and all statements, reports, certifications, records and any other information (in its possession or reasonably attainable) necessary in the reasonable good faith determination of the Depositor to permit the Depositor to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the

-392-

Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and any Sub-Servicer, or the servicing of the Mortgage Loans, reasonably believed by the Depositor to be necessary in order to effect such compliance. Each party to this Agreement shall have a reasonable period of time to comply with any written request made under this Section 11.01, but in any event, shall, upon reasonable advance written request, provide information in sufficient time to allow the Depositor to satisfy any related filing requirements. For purposes of this Article XI, to the extent any party has an obligation to exercise commercially reasonable efforts to cause a third party to perform, such party hereunder shall not be required to bring any legal action against such third party in connection with such obligation.

Section 11.02    Succession; Subcontractors. (a) As a condition to the succession to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or to any Sub-Servicer (but only if such Sub-Servicer is a Servicing Function Participant and a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2)) as servicer or Sub-Servicer under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or such Sub-Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer or to any such Sub-Servicer, the Person removing and replacing the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the effective date of such succession or appointment (or such shorter period as is agreed to by the Depositor), (x) written notice to the Depositor of such succession or appointment and (y) in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information relating to such successor reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act); provided, however that if disclosing such information prior to such effective date would violate any applicable law or confidentiality agreement, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any Additional Servicer, as the case may be, shall submit such disclosure to the Depositor no later than the first Business Day after the effective date of such succession or appointment.

(b)               Each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Sub-Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Certificate Administrator (each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Certificate Administrator and each Sub-Servicer, for purposes of this Section 11.02, a “Servicer”) is permitted to utilize one or more Subcontractors to perform certain of its obligations hereunder. If such Subcontractor will be a Servicing Function Participant, such Servicer shall promptly upon written request provide to the Depositor or any Mortgage Loan Seller a written description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor or such Mortgage Loan Seller, as applicable) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by such Servicer, specifying (i) the identity of such Subcontractor and (ii) the elements of the Servicing Criteria that will be addressed in assessments of compliance provided by each such Subcontractor. As a condition to the utilization by such Servicer of any Subcontractor determined to be a Servicing Function Participant, such Servicer shall (i) with respect to any such Subcontractor engaged by such Servicer that is an Initial Sub-Servicer, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause, and (ii) with respect to any other Subcontractor with which it has entered into a servicing relationship, cause such Subcontractor used by such Servicer for the benefit of the Depositor and the Trustee to comply with the provisions of Section 11.10 and Section 11.11 of this Agreement to the same extent as if such Subcontractor were such Servicer. With respect to any Servicing Function Participant engaged by such Servicer that is an

-393-

Initial Sub-Servicer, such Servicer shall be responsible for using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, and with respect to each other Servicing Function Participant engaged by such Servicer, such Servicer shall obtain from each such Servicing Function Participant and deliver to the applicable Persons any assessment of compliance report and related accountant’s attestation required to be delivered by such Subcontractor under Section 11.10 and Section 11.11, in each case, as and when required to be delivered. For the avoidance of doubt, the Custodian shall not be permitted to utilize any Subcontractor to perform any of its obligations hereunder.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Servicer engages a Subcontractor, other than an Initial Sub-Servicer in connection with the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, such Servicer shall be responsible for determining whether such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and whether any such Subcontractor meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB. If a Servicer determines, pursuant to the preceding sentence, that such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB, then such Subcontractor shall be deemed to be a Sub-Servicer for purposes of this Agreement, the engagement of such Sub-Servicer shall not be effective unless and until notice is given to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator of any such Sub-Servicer and Sub-Servicing Agreement. Other than with respect to the Initial Sub-Servicer, no Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be effective until fifteen (15) days after such written notice is received by the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator (or such shorter period as is agreed to by the Depositor). Such notice shall contain all information reasonably necessary to enable the Certificate Administrator to accurately and timely report the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).

(d)               In connection with the succession to the Trustee under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Trustee may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Trustee, the Trustee shall deliver written notice to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider, which shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), in each case at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the effective date of such succession or appointment (or if such prior notice is violative of applicable law or any applicable confidentiality agreement, no later than one (1) Business Day after such effective date of succession) and shall furnish to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, all information reasonably necessary for the Certificate Administrator to accurately and timely report, pursuant to Section 11.07, the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).

(e)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article XI, in connection with any Sub-Servicer and/or any Mortgage Loan that is the subject of an Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement, with respect to all matters related to Regulation AB, the Master Servicer shall not have any obligation other than to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Sub-Servicer to comply with its obligations under such Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement.

-394-

(f)                Any information furnished pursuant to this Section 11.02 shall also be provided to each Other Depositor and each Other Certificate Administrator (to the extent the information relates to a party that services, specially services or is trustee for a Serviced Companion Loan) in the same time frame as set forth in this Section 11.02.

Section 11.03    Filing Obligations. (a) The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the satisfaction of the Trust’s reporting requirements under the Exchange Act.

Each party hereto shall be entitled to rely on the information in the Prospectus or this Agreement with respect to the identity of any “sponsor”, credit enhancer, derivative provider or “Significant Obligor” as of the Closing Date other than with respect to itself or any information required to be provided by it or indemnified for by it pursuant to any separate agreement.

(b)               In the event that the Certificate Administrator is unable to timely file with the Commission all or any required portion of any Form 8-K, 10-D, ABS-EE or 10-K required to be filed by this Agreement because required disclosure information was either not delivered to it or delivered to it after the delivery deadlines set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly notify the Depositor. In the case of Forms 10-D, ABS-EE and 10-K, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Trustee will thereupon cooperate to prepare and file a Form 12b-25 and a Form 10-D/A, Form ABS-EE/A or Form 10-K/A, as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange Act. In the case of Form 8-K, the Certificate Administrator will, upon receipt of all required Form 8-K Disclosure Information and upon the approval and direction of the Depositor, include such disclosure information on the next succeeding Form 10-D to be filed for the Trust. In the event that any previously filed Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K needs to be amended, the Certificate Administrator will notify the Depositor, and such other parties as needed and the parties hereto will cooperate with the Certificate Administrator to prepare any necessary Form 8-K/A, Form 10-D/A, Form ABS-EE/A or Form 10-K/A. Any Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K shall be signed by an officer of the Depositor. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Certificate Administrator of its duties under this Section 11.03 related to the timely preparation and filing of Form 15, a Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K is contingent upon the parties observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under Sections 11.03, 11.04, 11.05, 11.06, 11.07, 11.08, 11.09, 11.10, 11.11 and 11.15(g) of this Agreement. The Certificate Administrator shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, arrange for execution and/or timely file any such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K, where such failure results from the Certificate Administrator’s inability or failure to receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 15, Form 12b-25

-395-

or any amendments to Forms 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

Section 11.04    Form 10-D and Form ABS-EE Filings. (a) Within fifteen (15) days after each Distribution Date (subject to permitted extensions under the Exchange Act), the Certificate Administrator shall prepare and file on behalf of the Trust any Form 10-D required by the Exchange Act, in form and substance as required by the Exchange Act.

Any disclosure in addition to the Distribution Date Statement that is required to be included on Form 10-D (“Additional Form 10-D Disclosure”) shall, pursuant to the following paragraph be reported by the parties set forth on Exhibit BB to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator and approved by the Depositor, and the Certificate Administrator will have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, absent such reporting, direction and approval.

For so long as the Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, as set forth on Exhibit BB hereto, within five (5) calendar days after the related Distribution Date, (i) certain parties to this Agreement identified on Exhibit BB hereto shall be required to provide to the Certificate Administrator and the Depositor (and in the case of any Servicing Function Participant, with a copy to the Master Servicer), to the extent a Regulation AB Servicing Officer or Responsible Officer, as the case may be, has actual knowledge, in EDGAR-Compatible Format, or in such other format as otherwise agreed upon by the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor and such providing parties, the form and substance of any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, if applicable; provided that information relating to any REO Account to be reported under “Item 8: Other Information” on Exhibit BB shall be reported by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer within four (4) calendar days after the related Distribution Date on Exhibit LL; (ii) the parties listed on Exhibit BB hereto shall include with such Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, an Additional Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit EE (except with respect to the reporting of applicable REO Account balances which shall be delivered in the form of Exhibit LL hereto) and (iii) the Depositor shall approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-D Disclosure on Form 10-D. Information delivered to the Certificate Administrator hereunder should be delivered by e-mail to !nacctsecnotifications@computershare.com, Attn: CTS SEC Notifications.

administrator or master servicer as a result of any failure by the Servicing Function Participant to comply with the reporting requirements to the extent applicable set forth under Sections 11.15(b), (c), (d) or (e) above.

Any Sub-Servicing Agreement related to a Serviced Securitized Companion Loan shall contain a provision requiring the related Sub-Servicer to provide to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, information, reports, statements and certificates with respect to itself and such Serviced Securitized Companion Loan comparable to any information, reports, statements or certificates required to be provided by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to this Section 11.15, even if such Sub-Servicer is not otherwise required to provide such information, reports or certificates to any Person in order to comply with Regulation AB.

-417-

Depositor with respect to such Other Securitization that includes the related Companion Loan (and shall cause each applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement to require any related Sub-Servicer to notify such Other Depositor) that it has not received such financial information. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard (taking into account, in addition, the ongoing reporting obligations of such Other Depositor under the Exchange Act) to obtain the periodic financial statements of the related Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents.

The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall (and shall cause any related Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into after receipt of written notice from the Other Depositor that such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan is a significant obligor to require the related Sub-Servicer to) retain written evidence of each instance in which it (or a Sub-Servicer) attempts to contact the related Mortgagor related to any such “significant obligor” (identified to it as such by the Other Depositor in accordance with the second preceding paragraph) to obtain the required financial information and is unsuccessful and, within five (5) Business Days prior to the date in which a Form 10-D or Form 10-K, as applicable, is required to be filed by the Other Securitization, shall forward an Officer’s Certificate evidencing its attempts to obtain this information to the certificate administrator and Other Depositor related to such Other Securitization. This Officer’s Certificate should be addressed to the certificate administrator at its corporate trust office, as specified in the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Section 11.16    Certain Matters Regarding Significant Obligors. For the avoidance of doubt, there is no “significant obligor” (within the meaning of Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB) as of the Closing Date (“Significant Obligor”) related to the Trust.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 11.16, in the event that the Certificate Administrator files a Form 15 Suspension Notification pursuant to Section 11.08 of this Agreement and so long as the Trust is not subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Master Servicer shall not be required to fulfill its obligations under this Section 11.16.

Section 11.17    Impact of Cure Period. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be subject to a Servicer Termination Event pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition thereof, nor shall any such party be deemed to not be in compliance under this Agreement, during any grace period provided for in such clause (iii); provided that if any such party fails to comply with the requirements of this Article XI by the expiration of any applicable grace period such failure shall constitute a Servicer Termination Event with respect to such party.

Article XII

THE ASSET REPRESENTATIONS REVIEWER

Section 12.01    Asset Review. (a) On or prior to each Distribution Date, based on the CREFC^® Delinquent Mortgage Loan Status Report and/or the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File delivered by the Master Servicer for such Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall determine if an Asset Review Trigger has occurred. If an Asset Review Trigger is determined to have occurred, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide notice to all

-418-

Certificateholders, the Controlling Class Representative and each other party to this Agreement. Any notice required to be delivered to the Certificateholders pursuant to this Article XII shall be delivered by the Certificate Administrator by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, by mailing such notice to the Certificateholders’ addresses appearing in the Certificate Register in the case of Definitive Certificates (and by delivering such notice via the Depository in the case of Book-Entry Certificates). The Certificate Administrator shall include in the Form 10-D relating to the reporting period in which the Asset Review Trigger occurred the following statement describing the events that caused the Asset Review Trigger to occur: “As of the [Date of Distribution], the following mortgage loans identified below are 60 or more days delinquent and an Asset Review Trigger as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement has occurred”. On each Distribution Date occurring after providing such notice to Certificateholders, the Certificate Administrator, based on information provided to it by the Master Servicer, shall determine whether (1) any additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Loan, (2) any Mortgage Loan has ceased to be a Delinquent Loan and (3) an Asset Review Trigger has ceased to exist, and, if there is an occurrence of any of the events or circumstances identified in clauses (1), (2) and/or (3), deliver written notice of such information (which may be via e-mail) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit RR within two (2) Business Days of such determination to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer.

If Certificateholders evidencing not less than 5.0% of the Voting Rights deliver to the Certificate Administrator, within ninety (90) days after the filing of the Form 10-D reporting the occurrence of an Asset Review Trigger, a written direction requesting a vote to commence an Asset Review (such written direction, the “Asset Review Vote Election”), then upon receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Asset Representations Reviewer and all Certificateholders and conduct a solicitation of votes in accordance with Section 5.09 to authorize an Asset Review. Upon the affirmative vote to authorize an Asset Review evidencing at least a majority of the votes casts but in any event at least a majority of an Asset Review Quorum within one hundred fifty (150) days of receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election (an “Affirmative Asset Review Vote”), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to all parties to this Agreement, the Underwriters, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Controlling Class Representative, the Risk Retention Consultation Parties, and the Certificateholders (the “Asset Review Notice”). Upon receipt of an Asset Review Notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request access to the Secure Data Room by providing the Certificate Administrator with a certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit QQ (which shall be sent via e-mail to TrustAdministrationGroup@computershare.com or submitted electronically via the Certificate Administrator’s Website). Upon receipt of such certification, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly (and in any case, within two (2) Business Days after such receipt) grant the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the Secure Data Room. In the event an Affirmative Asset Review Vote has not occurred within such 150-day period following the receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election, no Certificateholder may request a vote or cast a vote for an Asset Review and the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to review any Delinquent Loan unless and until (A) an additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Loan after the expiration of such 150-day period, (B) an Asset Review Trigger has occurred as a result or an Asset Review Trigger is otherwise in effect, (C) the Certificate Administrator has timely received an Asset Review Vote Election after the occurrence of the events described in clauses (A) and (B) in this

-419-

sentence and (D) an Affirmative Asset Review Vote has occurred within one hundred fifty (150) days after the Asset Review Vote Election described in clause (C) in this sentence. After the occurrence of any Asset Review Vote Election or an Affirmative Asset Review Vote, no Certificateholder may make any additional Asset Review Vote Election except as described in the immediately preceding sentence. Any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote will be paid as an expense of the Trust from the Collection Account. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to administer any vote in connection with the foregoing through an agent.

(b)               (i) Upon receipt of an Asset Review Notice, the Custodian (with respect to the following clauses (1) - (5) for Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans), the Master Servicer (with respect to the following clause (6) and (7) for Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans), in each case to the extent in such party’s possession, shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days (except with respect to the following clause (7)) after receipt of such notice from the Certificate Administrator, provide, or make available, the following materials for each Delinquent Loan (in electronic format) to the Asset Representations Reviewer (collectively, with the Diligence Files, any notice of a Breach of a representation or warranty relating to any Delinquent Loan received by the Asset Representations Reviewer from any other party to this Agreement, a copy of the Prospectus, a copy of each related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and a copy of this Agreement, the “Review Materials”):

(1)                     a copy of an assignment of the Mortgage in favor of the Trustee, with evidence of recording thereon, for each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(2)                     a copy of an assignment of any related Assignment of Leases (if such item is a document separate from the Mortgage) in favor of the Trustee, with evidence of recording thereon, related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(3)                     a copy of the assignment of all unrecorded documents relating to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review, if not already covered pursuant to items (1) or (2) above;

(4)                     a copy of all filed copies (bearing evidence of filing) or evidence of filing of any UCC Financing Statements related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(5)                     a copy of an assignment in favor of the Trustee of any financing statement executed and filed in the relevant jurisdiction related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(6)                     a copy of any notice previously delivered by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of any alleged defect or Breach with respect to any Delinquent Loan; and

-420-

(7)       any other related documents that were entered into or delivered in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan that are necessary in connection with the Asset Representations Reviewer’s completion of any Asset Review and that are that are reasonably requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer in the time frame and as otherwise described below.

(ii)                             In addition, in the event that, as part of an Asset Review of any Delinquent Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that the Review Materials provided to it with respect to such Delinquent Loan are missing any documents that are required to be part of the Review Materials for such Mortgage Loan or which were entered into or delivered in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan that, in either case, are necessary in connection with its completion of any Test in connection with such Asset Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Review Materials, notify the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans), as applicable, of such missing documents, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notification from the Asset Representations Reviewer, deliver to the Asset Representations Reviewer such missing documents to the extent they are in its possession; provided that any such notification and/or request shall be in writing, specifically identifying the documents being requested and sent to the notice address for the related party set forth in Section 13.05 of this Agreement. In the event any missing documents are not provided by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, within such 10-Business Day period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request such documents from the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided that such Mortgage Loan Seller shall be required under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to, deliver such additional documents only to the extent such documents are in the possession of such Mortgage Loan Seller.

With respect to any Delinquent Loan that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the extent any documents required by the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete a Test are missing or have not been received from the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request such document(s) from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer (if such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is being serviced by a Non-Serviced Master Servicer) or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer (if such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is being serviced by a Non-Serviced Special Servicer).

(iii)                          The Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider and rely upon information furnished to it by a Person that is not a party to this Agreement or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, and shall do so only if such information can be independently verified (without unreasonable effort or expense to the Asset Representations Reviewer) and is determined by the Asset Representations Reviewer in its good faith and sole discretion to be relevant to the Asset Review (any such information, “Unsolicited Information”) conducted pursuant to this Section 12.01 hereof.

(iv)                         Upon receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of the Asset Review Notice and access to the Diligence Files posted to the Secure Data Room with respect to a

-421-

Delinquent Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer, as an independent contractor, shall commence a review of the compliance of each Delinquent Loan with the representations and warranties related to that Delinquent Loan (such review, the “Asset Review”). The Asset Representations Reviewer shall perform an Asset Review with respect to each representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Delinquent Loan in accordance with the Asset Review Standard and the procedures set forth on Exhibit PP-A and Exhibits PP-B (each such procedure, a “Test”); provided, however, the Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, modify any Test and/or associated Review Materials described in Exhibit PP-A or Exhibit PP-B if, and only to the extent, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that it is necessary to modify such Test and/or such associated Review Materials in order to facilitate its Asset Review in accordance with the Asset Review Standard. Once an Asset Review of a Mortgage Loan is completed, no further Asset Review shall be required in respect of, or performed on, such Mortgage Loan notwithstanding that such Mortgage Loan may continue to be a Delinquent Loan or again become a Delinquent Loan at a time when a new Asset Review Trigger occurs and a new Affirmative Asset Review Vote is obtained subsequent to the occurrence of such new Asset Review Trigger.

(v)                            The Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be required to review any information other than (x) the Review Materials or (y) if applicable, Unsolicited Information.

(vi)                         The Asset Representations Reviewer may, absent manifest error and subject to the Asset Review Standard, (i) assume, without independent investigation or verification, that the Review Materials are accurate and complete in all material respects and (ii) conclusively rely on such Review Materials.

(vii)                       In the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that the Review Materials are insufficient to complete a Test and such missing documentation is not delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) to the extent in the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s possession within ten (10) Business Days upon request described above, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall list such missing documents in a preliminary report setting forth the preliminary results of the application of the Tests and the reasons why such missing documents are necessary to complete a Test and (if the Asset Representations Reviewer has so concluded) that the absence of such documents shall be deemed to be a failure of such Test (“Preliminary Asset Review Report”). The Asset Representations Reviewer shall provide such Preliminary Asset Review Report to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller no later than sixty (60) days after the date on which access to the Diligence Files in the Secure Data Room is made available to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate Administrator. The Special Servicer, if applicable, may review such Preliminary Asset Review Report and determine whether any information contained in such Preliminary Asset Review Report shall be labeled as “Privileged Information” and thus be excluded from the Asset Review Report and Asset Review Report Summary. If the

-422-

Preliminary Asset Review Report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall have ninety (90) days from receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the failure. Any information and documents provided or explanations given to support the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s claim that the representation and warranty has not failed a Test or that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test shall be promptly delivered by such Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer. For the avoidance of doubt, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to prepare a Preliminary Asset Review Report in the event the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that there is no Test failure with respect to the related Delinquent Loan.

(viii)                   The Asset Representations Reviewer shall, within the later of (x) sixty (60) days after the date on which access to the Diligence Files posted to the Secure Data Room is provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate Administrator or (y) ten (10) days after the expiration of the Cure/Contest Period, complete an Asset Review with respect to each Delinquent Loan and deliver (i) a report setting forth the Asset Representations Reviewer’s findings and conclusions as to whether or not it has determined there is any evidence of a failure of any Test based on the Asset Review and a statement that the Asset Representations Reviewer’s findings and conclusions set forth in such report were not influenced by any third party (an “Asset Review Report”) to each party to this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Seller and (ii) a summary of the Asset Representations Reviewer’s conclusions included in such Asset Review Report (an “Asset Review Report Summary”) to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. The period of time by which the Asset Review Report must be completed and delivered may be extended by up to an additional thirty (30) days, upon written notice to the parties to this Agreement and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, if the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that such additional time is required due to the characteristics of the Delinquent Loan and/or the Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties. In no event may the Asset Representations Reviewer determine whether any Test failure constitutes a Material Defect, or whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of BCREI, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement), which, in each case, shall be a responsibility of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.03 of this Agreement.

(ix)                           In addition, in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer does not receive any documentation that it requested from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the related Mortgage Loan Seller in sufficient time to allow the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete its Asset Review and deliver an Asset Review Report, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall prepare the Asset Review Report solely based on the documentation received by the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to the related Delinquent Loan, and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall have no responsibility to independently obtain any such documentation from any party to this Agreement.

(x)                              Within forty-five (45) days after receipt of an Asset Review Report with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced

-423-

Mortgage Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) shall determine whether at that time, based on the Servicing Standard, there exists a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan. If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer determines that a Material Defect exists, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall enforce the obligations of the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Material Defect in accordance with Section 2.03.

(c)               The Asset Representations Reviewer shall keep any information appropriately labeled or as which appears on its face to be “Privileged Information” confidential and shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Certificateholders), other than (1) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement in an Asset Review Report or otherwise, to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information or (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Asset Representations Reviewer with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall keep all documents received by the Asset Representations Reviewer in connection with an Asset Review that are provided by the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer confidential and shall not disclose such documents except (i) for purposes of complying with its duties and obligations under this Agreement, (ii) if such documents become generally available and known to the public other than as a result of a disclosure directly or indirectly by the Asset Representations Reviewer, (iii) if it is reasonable and necessary for the Asset Representations Reviewer to disclose such documents or information in working with legal counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies, (iv) if such documents or information was already known to the Asset Representations Reviewer and not otherwise subject to a confidentiality obligation and/or (v) if the Asset Representations Reviewer is required by law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to disclose such document.

(d)               The Asset Representations Reviewer may delegate its duties to agents or subcontractors so long as the related agreements or arrangements with such agents or subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Section 12.01; provided that no agent or subcontractor may (1) be affiliated with any Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Controlling Class Representative or any of their respective Affiliates or (ii) have been paid any fees, compensation or other remuneration by an Underwriter, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Controlling Class Representative or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with due diligence or other services with respect to any Mortgage Loan prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall remain obligated and primarily liable for any Asset Review required hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability or related obligation or liability by virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as its agents or subcontractor to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Asset Representations Reviewer alone were performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with any agent or subcontractor providing

The Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to each Delinquent Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) shall be paid by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, however, that if such Mortgage Loan Seller is insolvent, such fee shall become an expense of the Trust following delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of such insolvency; provided, further, that notwithstanding any payment of such fee by the Trust to the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee shall remain an obligation of such Mortgage Loan Seller and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer as applicable, shall be required to pursue remedies against the Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with the Servicing Standard in order to seek recovery of such amounts from such Mortgage Loan Seller or its insolvency estate.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to a Delinquent Loan shall be included in the Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan that was the subject of a completed Asset Review that is repurchased by a Mortgage Loan Seller to the extent such fee was not already paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller, and such portion of the Purchase Price received shall be used to reimburse the Trust for such fees paid to the Asset Representations Reviewer pursuant to Section 12.02(b).

(d)               The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed by this Agreement.

If no successor Asset Representations Reviewer shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Asset Representations Reviewer may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Asset Representations Reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer will bear all costs and expenses of each other party hereto and each Rating Agency in connection with its resignation and the transfer of its duties.

(a) An “Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event” means any one of the following events whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body:

(i)                          any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants or agreements or the material breach of its representations or warranties under this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Trustee or to the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee by Certificateholders having at least 25% of the Voting Rights;

(ii)                       any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform in accordance with the Asset Review Standard in any material respect, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by any party to this Agreement;

(iv)                     a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Asset Representations Reviewer, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days;

(v)                        the Asset Representations Reviewer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or liquidation committee in any insolvency,

-427-

readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities, voluntary liquidation, or similar proceedings of or relating to the Asset Representations Reviewer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(vi)                the Asset Representations Reviewer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations.

Upon receipt by the Certificate Administrator of written notice of the occurrence of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders in accordance with the notice distribution procedures described in Section 12.01(a), unless the Certificate Administrator has received written notice that such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event has been remedied. If an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall occur then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee (i) may or (ii) upon the written direction of Certificateholders evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Appraisal Reduction Amounts), the Trustee shall, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement, other than rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination), by notice in writing to the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer is required to bear all reasonable costs and expenses of itself and of each other party to this Agreement in connection with its termination due to an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor and each Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event of which it becomes aware.

(b)               Upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Appraisal Reduction Amounts) requesting a vote to terminate and replace the Asset Representations Reviewer with a proposed successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer and (ii) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Asset Representations Reviewer by mailing such notice to the Asset Representations Reviewer and to all Certificateholders in accordance with the notice distribution procedures described in Section 12.01(a). Upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 75% of a Quorum (without regard to the application of any Appraisal Reduction Amounts), the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination and other than indemnification rights arising out of events occurring prior to such termination) by notice in writing to the Asset Representations Reviewer and appoint the proposed successor. As between the Asset Representations Reviewer, on the one hand, and the Holders of Principal Balance Certificates and the Class RR Certificates, on the other, the Holders of Principal Balance Certificates and the Class RR Certificates shall be entitled in their sole discretion to vote for the

-428-

termination or not vote for the termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer. In the event that Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 75% of a Quorum (without regard to the application of any Appraisal Reduction Amounts) elect to remove the Asset Representations Reviewer without cause and appoint a successor, the successor asset representations reviewer will be responsible for all expenses necessary to effect the transfer of responsibilities from its predecessor.

(c)               On or after the receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of written notice of termination, subject to this Section 12.05, all of its authority and power under this Agreement shall be terminated and, without limitation, the terminated Asset Representations Reviewer shall execute any and all documents and other instruments, and do or accomplish all other acts or things reasonably necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after (1) the Asset Representations Reviewer resigns pursuant to Section 12.03 of this Agreement or (2) the Trustee delivers such written notice of termination to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee shall appoint a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Trustee shall provide written notice of the appointment of an Asset Representations Reviewer to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Controlling Class Representative, the Directing Holder and each Certificateholder within one Business Day of such appointment.

The Asset Representations Reviewer shall at all times be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer and if the Asset Representations Reviewer ceases to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall immediately resign under Section 12.03 of this Agreement and the Trustee shall appoint a successor asset representations reviewer subject to and in accordance with this Section 12.05. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee is unable to find a successor asset representations reviewer within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement. The Trustee shall not be liable for any failure to identify and appoint a successor asset representations reviewer so long as the Trustee uses commercially reasonable efforts to conduct a search for a successor asset representations reviewer and such failure is not a result of the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the performance of its obligations hereunder.

(d)               Upon any termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer and appointment of a successor to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator (who shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Certificateholders), the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Depositor and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Holder and each Rating Agency. In the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer is terminated, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination).

Each Mortgage Loan Seller (and its agents), each Companion Holder (and its respective agents), each Underwriter, each depositor of a Regulation AB Companion Loan Securitization and each Initial Purchaser is an intended third-party beneficiary to this Agreement in respect of the respective rights afforded it hereunder. No other person, including, without limitation, any Mortgagor, shall be entitled to any benefit or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement. If one, but not all, of the Mortgage Notes evidencing any Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement to the same extent as if it were a Companion Holder, as contemplated by Section 3.34 hereof.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, may include any reasonable disclaimer it deems appropriate with respect to such information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Section 13.10 shall require a party to provide duplicative notices or copies to the Rating Agencies with respect to any of the above listed items.

Section 13.11                Cooperation with the Mortgage Loan Sellers with Respect to Rights Under the Loan Agreements. It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Mortgage Loan documents, it is expressly intended that each Mortgage Loan Seller get the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Mortgage Loan documents. Therefore, the Depositor, Master Servicer, Special Servicer and Trustee hereby agree to reasonably cooperate with each Mortgage Loan Seller at the sole reasonable expense of such Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the benefits of the provisions of any section of a loan agreement or securitization cooperation agreement related to indemnification of the lender and/or its Affiliates with respect to any securitization of the related Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, reassignment to the related Mortgage Loan Seller of such sections, but no other portion of the Mortgage Loan documents, to permit the related Mortgage Loan Seller and its respective Affiliates to enforce such provisions for their respective benefits; provided that none of the Depositor, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee shall be required to take any action that is inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, would violate applicable law, the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan documents, would adversely affect any Certificateholder, would cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC, or would result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions. To the extent that the Trustee is required to execute any document facilitating an assignment under this Section 13.11, such document shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

evidencing a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, consisting primarily of a pool of commercial mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), all payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date, all REO Properties and revenues received in respect thereof, the mortgagee’s rights under the insurance policies, any Assignment of Leases, and any guaranties or other collateral as security for the Mortgage Loans and such amounts as shall from time to time be held in the Collection Account, the Distribution Accounts, the Interest Reserve Account, the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account and the REO Accounts, formed and sold by

GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II

THIS CERTIFIES THAT CEDE & CO. is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class A-1 Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class A-1 Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class A-1 Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

A-1-4

Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-1-5

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class A-1 Certificates will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of DTC in minimum denominations of $10,000, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

(i)                      to correct any defect or ambiguity in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in order to address any manifest error in any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(iii)                to change the timing and/or nature of deposits in the Collection Account, the Distribution Accounts or any REO Account; provided that (a) the Master Servicer Remittance Date shall in no event be later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date and (b) such change shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency with respect to such amendment;

(vi)                to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other change; provided that the required action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or any holder of a Serviced Companion

(viii)          to modify the provisions of Sections 3.05 and 3.17 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances and Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts) if (a) the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and, for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing and with respect to any Mortgage Loans other than any applicable Excluded Loan, the Directing Holder, determine that the commercial mortgage backed securities industry standard for such provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such modification does not adversely affect the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the relevant provisions of the Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, each Companion Loan Rating Agency has delivered a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation;

(ix)                 to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to compliance with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that such amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respects the interests of any Certificateholders, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Certificates; and provided, further, that the Certificate Administrator shall give notice of any such amendment to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Certificate Administrator shall post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website;

(x)                    to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to such extent as would be necessary to comply with the requirements for use of Form SF-3 in registered offerings to the extent provided in CFR 239.45(b)(1)(ii), (iii) or (iv); or

(xi)                 to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (i) to such extent as would be necessary to comply with the requirements of the Risk Retention Rule, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, or (ii) in the event the Risk Retention Rule or any other regulations applicable to the risk retention requirements for this securitization transaction are amended or repealed, to the extent required to comply with any such amendment or to modify or eliminate the risk retention requirements in the event of such repeal, as evidenced by an opinion of counsel; provided that no such modification, elimination or addition may change in any manner the rights or obligations of the Third Party Purchaser under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the Credit Risk Retention Compliance Agreements without the consent of the Third Party Purchaser.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holders of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

A-1-7

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                      reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                   reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)               adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                  amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-1-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

evidencing a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, consisting primarily of a pool of commercial mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), all payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date, all REO Properties and revenues received in respect thereof, the mortgagee’s rights under the insurance policies, any Assignment of Leases, and any guaranties or other collateral as security for the Mortgage Loans and such amounts as shall from time to time be held in the Collection Account, the Distribution Accounts, the Interest Reserve Account, the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account and the REO Accounts, formed and sold by

GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II

THIS CERTIFIES THAT CEDE & CO. is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class A-3 Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class A-3 Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class A-3 Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

A-2-4

Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-2-5

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class A-3 Certificates will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of DTC in minimum denominations of $10,000, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

(i)                      to correct any defect or ambiguity in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in order to address any manifest error in any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

A-2-7

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                      reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                   reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-2-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

A-3-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class X-B Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Notional Amount of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

A-4-4

Date. Interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-4-5

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class X-B Certificates will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of DTC in minimum denominations of $1,000,000 initial Notional Amount, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Notional Amount of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

(viii)          to modify the provisions of Sections 3.05 and 3.17 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances and Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts) if (a) the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and, for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing and with respect to any Mortgage Loans other than any applicable Excluded Loan, the Directing Holder, determine that the commercial mortgage backed securities industry standard for such provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such modification does not adversely affect the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the relevant provisions of the Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, each Companion Loan Rating Agency has delivered a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation;

A-4-7

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                      reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                   reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                   amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-4-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II

THIS CERTIFIES THAT CEDE & CO. is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class X-D Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Notional Amount of the Class X-D Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class X-D Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Notional Amount of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

Date. Interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-5-5

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class X-D Certificates will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of DTC in minimum denominations of $1,000,000 initial Notional Amount, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Notional Amount of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

A-5-7

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                      reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                   reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                   amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-5-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class X-F Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Notional Amount of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

A-6-4

Date. Interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-6-5

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class X-F Certificates will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of DTC in minimum denominations of $1,000,000 initial Notional Amount, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Notional Amount of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holders of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

A-6-7

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                      reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                   reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                   amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-6-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II

THIS CERTIFIES THAT CEDE & CO. is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class A-S Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class A-S Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class A-S Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

A-7-4

Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-7-5

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class A-S Certificates will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of DTC in minimum denominations of $10,000, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

A-7-7

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                      reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                   reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                   amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-7-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II

THIS CERTIFIES THAT CEDE & CO. is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class B Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class B Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class B Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

A-8-4

Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-8-5

The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

A-8-7

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                      reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                   reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                   amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-8-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

evidencing a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, consisting primarily of a pool of commercial mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), all payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date, all REO Properties and revenues received in respect thereof, the mortgagee’s rights under the insurance policies, any Assignment of Leases, and any guaranties or other collateral as security for the Mortgage Loans and such amounts as shall from time to time be held in the Collection Account, the Distribution Accounts, the Interest Reserve Account, the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account and the REO Accounts, formed and sold by

GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II

THIS CERTIFIES THAT CEDE & CO. is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class C Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class C Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class C Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

A-9-4

Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-9-5

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class C Certificates will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of DTC in minimum denominations of $10,000, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

(i)                        to correct any defect or ambiguity in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in order to address any manifest error in any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(ii)                     to cause the provisions in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to conform or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made in the Prospectus (or in an offering document for any related Non-Registered Certificates) with respect to the Certificates, the Trust or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or to correct or supplement any of its provisions which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions therein or to correct any error;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holders of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

A-9-7

(ii)                     reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                  adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                 change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                    amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-9-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

evidencing a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, consisting primarily of a pool of commercial mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), all payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date, all REO Properties and revenues received in respect thereof, the mortgagee’s rights under the insurance policies, any Assignment of Leases, and any guaranties or other collateral as security for the Mortgage Loans and such amounts as shall from time to time be held in the Collection Account, the Distribution Accounts, the Interest Reserve Account, the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account and the REO Accounts, formed and sold by

GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II

THIS CERTIFIES THAT CEDE & CO. is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class D Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class D Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class D Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

A-10-4

Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-10-5

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class D Certificates will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of DTC in minimum denominations of $100,000, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

(i)                        to correct any defect or ambiguity in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in order to address any manifest error in any provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holders of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

A-10-7

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                        reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                     reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                  adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                 change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                    amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-10-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

evidencing a beneficial ownership interest in a Trust Fund, consisting primarily of a pool of commercial mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), all payments on or collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date, all REO Properties and revenues received in respect thereof, the mortgagee’s rights under the insurance policies, any Assignment of Leases, and any guaranties or other collateral as security for the Mortgage Loans and such amounts as shall from time to time be held in the Collection Account, the Distribution Accounts, the Interest Reserve Account, the Non-VRR Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account and the REO Accounts, formed and sold by

GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II

THIS CERTIFIES THAT CEDE & CO. is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class E Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class E Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class E Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

A-11-4

Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-11-5

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class E Certificates will be issued in book-entry form through the facilities of DTC in minimum denominations of $100,000, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holders of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of Certificates of each Class affected by such amendment evidencing, in the case of a Class of Certificateholders, in the aggregate not less than a majority of the aggregate Percentage Interests constituting the Class, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions

A-11-7

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                        reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                     reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                  adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                 change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                    amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-11-8

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II

THIS CERTIFIES THAT CEDE & CO. is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class F Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class F Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class F Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution

A-12-5

Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-12-6

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holders of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

A-12-8

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                        reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                     reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                  adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                 change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                    amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-

A-12-9

outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II

THIS CERTIFIES THAT [FOR BOOK ENTRY CERTIFICATES AND SOLELY FOLLOWING THE HRR TRANSFER RESTRICTION PERIOD: CEDE & CO.] [FOR DEFINITIVE CERTIFICATES: LD III SUB XVII LLC] is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class G-RR Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS MORTGAGE SECURITIES CORPORATION II (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class G-RR Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Holders of this Certificate may be entitled to Yield Maintenance Charges as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

A-13-5

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class G-RR Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in

A-13-6

writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class G-RR Certificates will be issued in fully registered, certificated form in minimum denominations of $100,000, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

(v)                    to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of Section 5.03(n) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other provision of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement restricting Transfer of the Class R Certificates; provided the Depositor has determined that such change shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, cause the Trust, any Trust REMIC or any of the Certificateholders (other than the Transferor) to be subject to a federal tax caused by a Transfer to a Person that is a Disqualified Organization or a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person;

A-13-7

(vi)                 to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other change; provided that the required action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or any holder of a Serviced Companion Loan not consenting to such revision or addition, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies with respect to such amendment or supplement and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency;

(viii)           to modify the provisions of Sections 3.05 and 3.17 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances and Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts) if (a) the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and, for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing and with respect to any Mortgage Loans other than any applicable Excluded Loan, the Directing Holder, determine that the commercial mortgage backed securities industry standard for such provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such modification does not adversely affect the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the relevant provisions of the Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, each Companion Loan Rating Agency has delivered a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation;

(ix)                   to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to compliance with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that such amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respects the interests of any Certificateholders, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Certificates; and provided, further, that the Certificate Administrator shall give notice of any such amendment to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Certificate Administrator shall post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website;

(x)                      to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to such extent as would be necessary to comply with the requirements for use of Form SF-3 in registered offerings to the extent provided in CFR 239.45(b)(1)(ii), (iii) or (iv); or

(xi)                   to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (i) to such extent as would be necessary to comply with the requirements of the Risk Retention Rule, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, or (ii) in the event the Risk Retention Rule or any other regulations applicable to the risk retention requirements for this securitization transaction are amended or repealed, to the extent required to comply with any such amendment or to modify or eliminate the risk retention requirements in the event of such repeal, as evidenced by an opinion of counsel; provided that no such modification, elimination or addition may change in any manner the rights or obligations of the Third Party Purchaser under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the Credit Risk Retention Compliance Agreements without the consent of the Third Party Purchaser.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holders of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

A-13-8

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of Certificates of each Class affected by such amendment evidencing, in the case of a Class of Certificateholders, in the aggregate not less than a majority of the aggregate Percentage Interests constituting the Class, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                        reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                     reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                  adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                 change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                    amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the

A-13-9

then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class J-RR Certificates.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class J-RR Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this Certificate’s pro rata share of the Non-VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in

A-14-6

writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class J-RR Certificates will be issued in fully registered, certificated form in minimum denominations of $100,000, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof, with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

A-14-8

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of Certificates of each Class affected by such amendment evidencing, in the case of a Class of Certificateholders, in the aggregate not less than a majority of the aggregate Percentage Interests constituting the Class, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                        reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                     reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                  adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                 change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                    amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the

A-14-9

then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class R Certificates.

The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, distributions, if any, on this Certificate shall be made by the Certificate Administrator in an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) and to the extent and subject to the limitations set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, on the Distribution Date to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be

A-15-4

held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

Each Person who has or acquires any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions: (A) no Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be a Disqualified Organization, a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person or any agent of either (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) (an “Agent”), or a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of or using the assets of a Plan (such Plan or Person, an “ERISA Prohibited Holder”) and shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of any change or impending change to such status; (B) in connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall require delivery to it, and no Transfer of any Class R Certificate shall be registered until the Certificate Registrar receives, an affidavit substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit D-1 (a “Transferee Affidavit”) from the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, representing and warranting, among other things, that such Transferee is not a Disqualified Organization, a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person or any Agent of

A-15-5

either, or an ERISA Prohibited Holder and that it agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of Section 5.03(n) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (C) notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed Transferee under clause (B) above, if the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge or reason to believe that the proposed Transferee is a Disqualified Organization, a Disqualified Non-U.S. Tax Person or any Agent of either, or an ERISA Prohibited Holder, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be effected; and (D) each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall agree (1) not to transfer its Ownership Interest in such Class R Certificate to any Person that does not provide a Transferee Affidavit and (2) not to transfer its Ownership Interest in such Class R Certificate unless it provides to the Certificate Registrar a letter substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit D-2 (a “Transferor Letter”) certifying that, among other things, it has no actual knowledge or reason to know that the proposed Transferee’s statements in such Transferee Affidavit are false.

The Class R Certificates will be issued in fully registered, certificated form, in minimum percentage interests of 10% and integral multiples of 1% in excess thereof.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

(vi)                 to revise or add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any other change; provided that the required action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or any holder of a Serviced Companion Loan not consenting to such revision or addition, as evidenced in writing by an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the party requesting such amendment or as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the Rating Agencies with respect to such amendment or supplement and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency;

(viii)           to modify the provisions of Sections 3.05 and 3.17 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances and Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts) if (a) the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and, for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing and with respect to any Mortgage Loans other than any applicable Excluded Loan, the Directing Holder, determine that the commercial mortgage backed securities industry standard for such provisions has changed, in order to conform to such industry standard, (b) such modification does not adversely affect the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the relevant provisions of the Code, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel and (c) each Rating Agency has delivered a Rating Agency Confirmation and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, each Companion Loan Rating Agency has delivered a Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation;

(ix)                   to modify the procedures of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to compliance with Rule 17g-5 of the Exchange Act; provided that such amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respects the interests of any Certificateholders, as evidenced by (x) an Opinion of Counsel or (y) if any Certificate is then rated, receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency rating such Certificates; and provided, further, that the Certificate Administrator shall give notice of any such amendment to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Certificate Administrator shall post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website;

(x)                      to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to such extent as would be necessary to comply with the requirements for use of Form SF-3 in registered offerings to the extent provided in CFR 239.45(b)(1)(ii), (iii) or (iv); or

A-15-7

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment (A) may change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller or (B) may materially and adversely affect the holders of a Companion Loan without such Companion Holder’s consent.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the parties thereto with the consent of the Holders of Certificates of each Class affected by such amendment evidencing, in the case of a Class of Certificateholders, in the aggregate not less than a majority of the aggregate Percentage Interests constituting the Class, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(i)                        reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on the Mortgage Loans that are required to be distributed on a Certificate of any Class without the consent of the Holder of the Certificate or which are required to be distributed to a Companion Holder without the consent of such Companion Holder; or

(ii)                     reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

(iii)                  adversely affect the Voting Rights of any Class of Certificates without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding; or

(iv)                 change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise or change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller; or

(v)                    amend the Servicing Standard without, in each case, the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, receipt of Companion Loan Rating Agency Confirmation from each Companion Loan Rating Agency and, if required under the related Co-Lender Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is

A-15-8

less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the quotient expressed as a percentage obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Certificate specified on the face hereof, by the aggregate initial Certificate Balance of the Class RR Certificates. The Certificates are designated as the BENCHMARK 2024-V6 MORTGAGE TRUST Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Certificate represents a “regular interest” in a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date, an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) of that portion of the aggregate amount of principal and interest then distributable, if any, allocable to the Class of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate for such Distribution Date, all as more fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

Interest on this Certificate will accrue (computed as if each year consisted of 360 days and each month consisted of 30 days) during the Interest Accrual Period relating to such Distribution Date at the Class RR Pass-Through Rate specified above on the Certificate Balance of this Certificate immediately prior to each Distribution Date. Principal and interest allocated to this Certificate on any Distribution Date will be in an amount equal to this

A-16-4

Certificate’s pro rata share of the VRR Available Funds to be distributed on the Certificates of this Class as of such Distribution Date, with a final distribution to be made upon retirement of this Certificate as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Realized Losses and certain other amounts on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on the applicable Distribution Date to Certificateholders in the manner set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans allocated to any Class of Certificates will be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates of such Class.

This Certificate is limited in right of payment to, among other things, certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of VRR Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Certificateholders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within 6 months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(i) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

Subject to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Class RR Certificates will be issued in fully registered, certificated form in minimum denominations of $100,000, and in integral multiples of $1 in

A-16-5

excess thereof (provided that the Class RR Certificates will be issuable in fractions of $1.00 in order to satisfy Risk Retention Rule percentage requirements), with one Certificate of each such Class evidencing an additional amount equal to the remainder of the initial Certificate Balance of such Class.

No fee or service charge shall be imposed by the Certificate Registrar for its services in respect of any registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate (other than Definitive Certificates) referred to in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any transfer to an Institutional Accredited Investor, the Transferor shall reimburse the Trust for any costs (including the cost of the Certificate Registrar’s counsel’s review of the documents and any legal opinions, submitted by the transferor or transferee to the Certificate Registrar as provided in Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) incurred by the Certificate Registrar in connection with such transfer. The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, nor any agent of any of them, shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be amended from time to time by the parties thereto, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders or the Companion Holders:

A-16-7

of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:

(ii)                     reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or remove the requirement to obtain consent of any Companion Holder, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding or such Companion Holders, as applicable; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified Person in accordance with such amendment will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Non-Serviced Co-Lender Agreement without the consent of the holder of the related Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates representing greater than 50% of the Percentage Interest of such Class, in that order of priority, may, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-3, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are retired and the Notional Amounts of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D Certificates have been reduced to zero (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates), the Sole Owner shall have the right to exchange all of its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, provided that the Master Servicer is paid a fee equal to (i) the product of (x) the Prime Rate, (y) the aggregate Certificate Balance of the then-outstanding

A-16-8

Certificates (other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificates) as of the date of the exchange and (z) three, divided by (ii) 360.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Re: Transfer of Benchmark 2024-V6 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is delivered pursuant to Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS Mortgage Securities Corporation II, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer, on behalf of the holders of Benchmark 2024-V6 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 (the “Certificates”) in connection with the transfer by [__________] (the “Seller”) to the undersigned (the “Purchaser”) of [$_____ aggregate [Certificate Balance][Notional Amount]][_____% Percentage Interest] of Class [_____] Certificates (the “Certificate”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

In connection with such transfer, the Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to you and the addressees hereof as follows:

1.       Check one of the following:^*

☐ The Purchaser is not purchasing a Class R Certificate and the Purchaser is an institution that is an “accredited investor” (an “Institutional Accredited Investor”) within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the

^* Purchaser must include one of the following two certifications.

Exhibit C-1

Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or any entity in which all of the equity owners come within such paragraphs and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Certificates, and the Purchaser and any accounts for which it is acting are each able to bear the economic risk of the Purchaser’s or such account’s investment. The Purchaser is acquiring the Certificates purchased by it for its own account or for one or more accounts, each of which is an Institutional Accredited Investor, as to each of which the Purchaser exercises sole investment discretion. The Purchaser hereby undertakes to reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs incurred by it in connection with this transfer.

☐ The Purchaser is a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”) within the meaning of Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) under the Securities Act. The Purchaser is aware that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, and the Purchaser has had the opportunity to obtain the information required to be provided pursuant to paragraph (d)(4)(i) of Rule 144A.

2.       The Purchaser’s intention is to acquire the Certificate (a) for investment for the Purchaser’s own account or (b) for reoffer, resale, pledge or other transfer (i) to QIBs in transactions under Rule 144A, and not in any event with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, or (ii) (other than with respect to a Class R Certificate) to Institutional Accredited Investors, subject in the case of clause (ii) above to (w) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a letter substantially in the form hereof, (x) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Trustee and Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act, (y) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of such other evidence acceptable to the Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and other applicable laws and (z) a written undertaking to reimburse the Trust Fund for any costs incurred by it in connection with the proposed transfer. The Purchaser understands that the Certificate (and any subsequent Certificate) has not been registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specified exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Purchaser’s investment intent (or intent to reoffer, resell, pledge or transfer the Certificate only to certain investors in certain exempted transactions) as expressed herein.

3.       The Purchaser has reviewed the Prospectus relating to the Registered Certificates (and, with respect to Non-Registered Certificates, the Offering Circular related to such Non-Registered Certificates) and the agreements and other materials referred to therein and has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Prospectus.

4.       The Purchaser acknowledges that the Certificate (and any Certificate issued on transfer or exchange thereof) has not been registered or qualified under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any State or any other jurisdiction, and that the Certificate cannot be reoffered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred unless it is registered or qualified thereunder or unless an exemption from such registration or qualification is available.

Exhibit C-2

5.       The Purchaser hereby undertakes to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in its capacity as an owner of a Certificate or Certificates, as the case may be (each, a “Certificateholder”), in all respects as if it were a signatory thereto. This undertaking is made for the benefit of the Trust, the Certificate Registrar and all Certificateholders present and future.

6.       The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer any portion of the Certificate or Certificates, except in compliance with Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

7.       Check one of the following:^**

☐ The Purchaser is a U.S. Tax Person (as defined below) and it has attached hereto an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-9 (or successor form).

☐ The Purchaser is not a U.S. Tax Person and under applicable law in effect on the date hereof, no taxes will be required to be withheld by the Certificate Registrar (or its agent) with respect to distributions to be made on the Certificate. The Purchaser has attached hereto [(i) a duly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or successor form, as applicable), which identifies such Purchaser as the beneficial owner of the Certificate and states that such Purchaser is not a U.S. Tax Person, (ii) IRS Form W-8IMY (with all appropriate attachments) or (iii)]^*** two duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form), which identify such Purchaser as the beneficial owner of the Certificate and state that interest and original issue discount on the Certificate and Permitted Investments is, or is expected to be, effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business. The Purchaser agrees to provide to the Certificate Registrar updated [IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8IMY or]*** IRS Form W-8ECI, [as the case may be,]*** any applicable successor IRS forms, or such other certifications as the Certificate Registrar may reasonably request, on or before the date that any such IRS form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent IRS form of certification furnished by it to the Certificate Registrar.

For purposes of this paragraph 7, “U.S. Tax Person” means a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation or partnership (except to the extent provided in applicable Treasury regulations) or other entity created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, including any entity treated as a corporation or partnership for federal income tax purposes, an estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source or a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust, and one or more such U.S. Tax Persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust.

^** Each Purchaser must include one of the two alternative certifications.

^*** Does not apply to a transfer of Class R Certificates.

Re: Benchmark 2024-V6 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6 (the “Certificates”) issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), dated as of March 1, 2024, among GS Mortgage Securities Corporation II, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer

STATE OF	)
	)	ss.:
COUNTY OF	)

I, [______], under penalties of perjury, declare that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the following representations are true, correct and complete, and being first sworn, depose and say that:

1.       I am a [______] of [______] (the “Purchaser”), on behalf of which I have the authority to make this affidavit.

2.       The Purchaser is acquiring Class R Certificates representing [__]% of the residual interest in each of the real estate mortgage investment conduits (each, a “REMIC” or “Trust REMIC”) designated as the (i)  “Lower-Tier REMIC” and (ii) “Upper-Tier REMIC”, respectively, relating to the Certificates for which an election is to be made under Section 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

3.       The Purchaser is not a “Disqualified Organization” (as defined below), and that the Purchaser is not acquiring the Class R Certificates for the account of, or as agent or nominee of, or with a view to the transfer of direct or indirect record or beneficial ownership thereof, to a Disqualified Organization. For the purposes hereof, a Disqualified Organization is any of the following: (i) the United States, any State or political subdivision thereof, any possession of the United States or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality which is a corporation if all of its activities are subject to tax and, except for Freddie Mac, a majority of its board of directors is not selected by such governmental unit),

Exhibit D-1-1

(ii) a foreign government, any international organization or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing, (iii) any organization which is exempt from the tax imposed by Chapter 1 of the Code (including the tax imposed by Section 511 of the Code on unrelated business taxable income) on any excess inclusions (as defined in Section 860E(c)(1) of the Code) with respect to the Class R Certificates (except certain farmers’ cooperatives described in Section 521 of the Code), (iv) rural electric and telephone cooperatives described in Section 1381(a)(2)(C) of the Code, (v) any other Person so designated by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator based upon an Opinion of Counsel as provided to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator (at no expense to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator) that the holding of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate by such Person may cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or any Person having an Ownership Interest in any Class of Certificates (other than such Person) to incur a liability for any federal tax imposed under the Code that would not otherwise be imposed but for the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate to such Person. The terms “United States,” “State” and “international organization” shall have the meanings set forth in Section 7701 of the Code or successor provisions.

4.       The Purchaser acknowledges that Section 860E(e) of the Code would impose a substantial tax on the transferor or, in certain circumstances, on an agent for the transferee, with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Class R Certificates to a Disqualified Organization.

5.       The Purchaser is a Permitted Transferee and, to the extent applicable, the Purchaser’s U.S. taxpayer identification number is [__________].

6.       No purpose of the acquisition of the Class R Certificates is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

7.       The Purchaser will not cause income from the Class R Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Purchaser or any other person.

8.       Check the applicable paragraph:

☐                 The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the Class R Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:

(i)                the present value of any consideration given to the Purchaser to acquire such Class R Certificate;

(ii)             the present value of the expected future distributions on such Class R Certificate; and

(iii)          the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding such Class R Certificate as the related Trust REMIC generates losses.

For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Purchaser is assumed to pay tax at the highest rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but the tax rate in Section 55(b)(1)(B) of the Code may be used in lieu of the highest rate specified in Section 11(b)

Exhibit D-1-2

of the Code if the Purchaser has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the preceding two years and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period used by the Purchaser.

☐                 The transfer of the Class R Certificate complies with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,

(i)                the Purchaser is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the Class R Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;

(ii)             at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Purchaser’s two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the Purchaser had gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person related to the Purchaser within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10 million;

(iii)          the Purchaser will transfer the Class R Certificate only to another “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(5); and

(iv)         the Purchaser determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Class R Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including, but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific to the Purchaser) that it has determined in good faith.

☐                 None of the above.

9.       The Purchaser historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future and the Purchaser intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Class R Certificates as they become due.

10.     The Purchaser understands that it may incur tax liabilities with respect to the Class R Certificate in excess of any cash flows generated by such Certificate.

11.     The Purchaser is aware that the Certificate Registrar will not register any transfer of a Class R Certificate by the Transferor unless the Purchaser, or such Purchaser’s agent, delivers to the Certificate Registrar, among other things, an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement. The Purchaser expressly agrees that it will not consummate any such transfer if it knows or believes that any representation contained in such affidavit and agreement is false.

12.     The Purchaser represents that it is not acquiring the Class R Certificate as a nominee, trustee or agent for any person that is not a Permitted Transferee and that for so long as it retains its interest in the Class R Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee.

Exhibit D-1-3

13.     The Purchaser consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificate will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by a Permitted Transferee.

14.     The Purchaser has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, a description of which provisions is set forth in the Class R Certificates; and the Purchaser expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such provisions.

15.     The Purchaser consents to the designation of the Certificate Administrator as the “partnership representative” of each Trust REMIC pursuant to Section 10.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Re: Benchmark 2024-V6 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6, Class R (the “Certificates”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is delivered to you in connection with the transfer by [______] (the “Transferor”) to [______] (the “Transferee”) of Class R Certificates evidencing a [__]% Percentage Interest in such Class (the “Residual Certificates”). The Certificates, including the Residual Certificates, were issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS Mortgage Securities Corporation II, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as Certificate Registrar, that:

(1)       No purpose of the Transferor relating to the transfer of the Residual Certificates by the Transferor to the Transferee is or will be to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.

(2)       The Transferor understands that the Transferee has delivered to you a Transferee Affidavit and Agreement in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit D-1. The Transferor does not know or believe that any representation contained therein is false.

(3)       The Transferor has at the time of this transfer conducted a reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Transferee as contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i) and, as a result of that investigation, the Transferor has determined that the Transferee has historically paid its debts as they became due and has found no significant evidence to indicate that the Transferee will not continue to pay its debts as they become due in the future. The Transferor understands that the transfer of the Residual Certificates may not be respected for United States income tax purposes (and the Transferor may continue to be liable for

Exhibit D-2-1

United States income taxes associated therewith) unless the Transferor has conducted such an investigation.

Very truly yours,

(1)	Debt Service Coverage Ratios are updated periodically as new NOI figures become available from borrowers on an asset level. In all cases the most current DSCR provided by the Servicer is used. To the extent that no DSCR is provided by the Servicer, information from the offering document is used. The debt service coverage ratio information was provided to the Certificate Administrator by the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator has not independently confirmed the accuracy of such information.
(2)	Anticipated Remaining Term and WAM are each calculated based upon the term from the current month to the earlier of the Anticipated Repayment Date, if applicable, and the Maturity Date.
(3)	Data in this table was calculated by allocating pro-rata the current loan information to the properties based upon the Cut Off Date Balance of each property as disclosed in the offering document. The Scheduled Balance Totals reflect the aggregate balances of all pooled loans as reported in the CREFC Loan Periodic Update File. To the extent that the Scheduled Balance Total figure for the "State" and "Property" stratification tables is not equal to the sum of the scheduled balance figures for each state or property, the difference is explained by loans that have been modified into a split loan structure. The "State" and "Property" stratification tables do not include the balance of the subordinate note (sometimes called the B-piece or a "hope note") of a loan that has been modified into a split-loan structure. Rather, the scheduled balance for each state or property only reflects the balance of the senior note (sometimes called the A-piece) of a loan that has been modified into a split-loan structure.

For purposes of this Confidentiality Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall include the following information (irrespective of its source or form of communication, including information obtained by you through access to this site) that may be furnished to you by or on behalf of a Furnishing Entity in connection with the issuance or monitoring of a rating with respect to the Certificates: (x) all data, reports, interpretations, forecasts, records, agreements, legal documents and other information (such information, the “Evaluation Material”) and (y) any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, including the status thereof; provided, however, that the term Confidential Information shall not include information which:

● was or becomes generally available to the public (including through filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission or disclosure in an offering document) other than as a result of a disclosure by you or a NRSRO Representative (as defined below) in violation of this Confidentiality Agreement;

● was or is lawfully obtained by you from a source other than a Furnishing Entity or its representatives that (i) is reasonably believed by you to be under no obligation to maintain the information as confidential and (ii) provides it to you without any obligation to maintain the information as confidential; or

● is independently developed by the NRSRO without reference to any Confidential Information.

Exhibit P-2-3

Information to Be Held in Confidence.

You will use the Confidential Information solely for the purpose of determining or monitoring a credit rating on the Certificates and, to the extent that any information used is derived from but does not reveal any Confidential Information, for benchmarking, modeling or research purposes (the “Intended Purpose”).

You acknowledge that you are aware that the United States and state securities laws impose restrictions on trading in securities when in possession of material, non-public information and that the NRSRO will advise (through policy manuals or otherwise) each NRSRO Representative who is informed of the matters that are the subject of this Confidentiality Agreement to that effect.

You will treat the Confidential Information as private and confidential. Subject to the terms herein, without the prior written consent of the applicable Furnishing Entity, you will not disclose to any person any Confidential Information, whether such Confidential Information was furnished to you before, on or after the date of this Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may:

● disclose the Confidential Information to any of the NRSRO’s affiliates, directors, officers, employees, legal representatives, agents and advisors (each, a “NRSRO Representative”) who, in the reasonable judgment of the NRSRO, need to know such Confidential Information in connection with the Intended Purpose; provided, that, prior to disclosure of the Confidential Information to a NRSRO Representative, the NRSRO shall have taken reasonable precautions to ensure, and shall be satisfied, that such NRSRO Representative will act in accordance with this Confidentiality Agreement;

● solely to the extent required for compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3) of the Act (17 C.F.R. 240.17g-5),post the Confidential Information to the NRSRO’s password protected website; and

● use information derived from the Confidential Information in connection with an Intended Purpose, if such derived information does not reveal any Confidential Information.

Disclosures Required by Law. If you or any NRSRO Representative is requested or required (orally or in writing, by interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigatory demand, request for information or documents, deposition or similar process relating to any legal proceeding, investigation, hearing or otherwise) to disclose any Confidential Information, you agree to provide the relevant Furnishing Entity with notice as soon as practicable (except in the case of regulatory or other governmental inquiry, examination or investigation, and otherwise to the extent practical and permitted by law, regulation or regulatory or other governmental authority) that a request to disclose the Confidential Information has been made so that the relevant Furnishing Entity may seek an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information if it so chooses. Unless otherwise required by a court or other governmental or regulatory authority to do so, and provided that you been informed by written notice that the related Furnishing Entity is seeking a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment with respect to the requested Confidential Information, you

Exhibit P-2-4

agree not to disclose the Confidential Information while the Furnishing Entity’s effort to obtain such a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment is pending. You agree to reasonably cooperate with each Furnishing Entity in its efforts to obtain a protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the portion of the Confidential Information that is being disclosed, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity; provided, however, that in no event shall the NRSRO be required to take a position that such information should be entitled to receive such a protective order or reasonable assurance as to confidential treatment. If a Furnishing Entity succeeds in obtaining a protective order or other remedy, you agree to comply with its terms with respect to the disclosure of the Confidential Information, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity. If a protective order or other remedy is not obtained or if the relevant Furnishing Entity waives compliance with the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement in writing, you agree to furnish only such information as you are legally required to disclose, at the sole expense of the relevant Furnishing Entity.

Re: Benchmark 2024-V6 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6

Mortgage Loan (the “Mortgage Loan”) identified by loan number _____ on the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and heretofore secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule by the following names:____________________
       ____________________

Exhibit U-1

Reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement described above. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As Master Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, we hereby:

(a)                          Notify you that the Mortgagor has consummated a defeasance of the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan, of the type checked below:

____                a full defeasance of the entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; or

____                a partial defeasance of a portion of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan that represents and, an allocated loan amount of $____________ or _______% of the entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan;

(b)                         Certify that each of the following is true, subject to those exceptions set forth with explanatory notes on Exhibit A hereto, which exceptions the Master Servicer has determined, consistent with the Servicing Standards, will have no material adverse effect on the Mortgage Loan or the defeasance transaction:

(i)                                The Mortgage Loan documents permit the defeasance, and the terms and conditions for defeasance specified therein were satisfied in all material respects in completing the defeasance.

(ii)                       The defeasance was consummated on __________, 20__.

(iii)                    The defeasance collateral consists of securities that (i) constitute “government securities” as defined in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (15 U.S.C. 80A1), (ii) are listed as “Qualified Investments for ‘AAA’ Financings” under Paragraphs 1, 2 or 3 of “Cash Flow Approach” in Standard & Poor’s Public Finance Criteria 2000, as amended to the date of the defeasance, (iii) if they include a principal obligation, the principal due at maturity cannot vary or change, and (iv) are not subject to prepayment, call or early redemption.

(iv)                   The Master Servicer received an opinion of counsel (from counsel approved by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard) that the defeasance will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.

(v)                      The Master Servicer determined that the defeasance collateral will be owned by an entity (the “Defeasance Obligor”) that is a Single-Purpose Entity (as defined in Standard & Poor’s Structured Finance Ratings Real Estate Finance Criteria, as amended to the date of the defeasance (the “S&P Criteria”)) or is subject to restrictions in its organizational documents substantially similar to those contained in the organization documents of the original Borrower with respect to bankruptcy remoteness and single purpose as of the date of the defeasance, and after the defeasance owns no assets other than the defeasance collateral and real property securing Mortgage Loans included in the pool.

Exhibit U-2

(vi)                      The defeasance documents require the crediting of the defeasance collateral to an Eligible Account (as defined in the S&P Criteria) in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, which account is maintained as a securities account by a securities intermediary and has been pledged to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust.

(vii)                   The agreements executed in connection with the defeasance (i) grant control of the pledged securities account to Trustee on behalf of the Trust, (ii) require the securities intermediary to make the scheduled payments on the Mortgage Loan from the proceeds of the defeasance collateral directly to the Master Servicer’s collection account in the amounts and on the dates specified in the Mortgage Loan documents or, in a partial defeasance, the portion of such scheduled payments attributed to the allocated loan amount for the real property defeased, increased by any defeasance premium specified in the Mortgage Loan documents (the “Scheduled Payments”), (iii) permit reinvestment of proceeds of the defeasance collateral only in Permitted Investments (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or as defined in the documents evidencing the defeasance), (iv) permit release of surplus defeasance collateral and earnings on reinvestment from the pledged securities account only after the Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, if any such release is permitted, (v) prohibit transfers by the Defeasance Obligor of the defeasance collateral and subordinate liens against the defeasance collateral, and (vi) provide for payment from sources other than the defeasance collateral or other assets of the Defeasance Obligor of all fees and expenses of the securities intermediary for administering the defeasance and the securities account and all fees and expenses of maintaining the existence of the Defeasance Obligor.

(viii)                The Master Servicer received written confirmation from a firm of independent certified public accountants, who were approved by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard stating that (i) revenues from the defeasance collateral (without taking into account any earnings on reinvestment of such revenues) will be sufficient to timely pay each of the Scheduled Payments after the defeasance including the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan (or the allocated portion thereof in connection with a partial defeasance) on its Maturity Date, (ii) the revenues received in any month from the defeasance collateral will be applied to make Scheduled Payments within four (4) months after the date of receipt, and (iii) interest income from the defeasance collateral to the Defeasance Obligor in any calendar or fiscal year will not exceed such Defeasance Obligor’s interest expense for the Mortgage Loan (or the allocated portion thereof in a partial defeasance) for such year.

(ix)                        The Mortgage Loan is not among the ten (10) largest loans in the pool as of the date of the Current Report (as defined below). The entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan as of the date of defeasance was less than both $[______] and five percent of pool balance, which is less than [__]% of the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Certificates as of the date of the most recent Distribution Date Statement received by us (the “Current Report”).

(x)                           The Master Servicer has received opinions of counsel stating that the Trustee on behalf of the Trust possesses a valid, perfected first priority security interest in

Exhibit U-3

the defeasance collateral and that the documents executed in connection with the defeasance are enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.

(c)               Certify that Exhibit B hereto is a list of the material agreements, instruments, organizational documents for the Defeasance Obligor, and opinions of counsel and independent accountants executed and delivered in connection with the defeasance.

(d)               Certify that the individual under whose hand the Master Servicer has caused this Notice and Certification to be executed did constitute a Servicing Officer as of the date of the defeasance described above.

(e)               Agree to provide copies of all items listed in Exhibit B to you upon request.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Master Servicer has caused this Notice and Certification to be executed as of the date captioned above.

Re: Access to Certain Information Regarding Benchmark 2024-V6 Mortgage Trust Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V6

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is hereby made to that certain Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of March 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among GS Mortgage Securities Corporation II, as Depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer, LNR Partners, LLC, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer. Defined terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

[Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association (“Midland”)] [LNR Partners, LLC (“LNR Partners”)] understands that [____] (the “Company”) is requesting certain confidential or non-public information relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Company has continuing rights as a Certificateholder. The Company is requesting such information for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Company may have under the Trust (the “Permitted Purpose”). The Company agrees that the Permitted Purpose shall not include the use or disclosure of the Confidential Information (as defined below) in any manner that violates any applicable law, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the related mortgage loan documents.

[Midland] [LNR Partners] will provide the Company with certain confidential, non-public servicing information (the “Confidential Information”) pertaining to the Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgaged Properties and borrowers. The Company acknowledges that the Confidential Information (a) includes or may be based upon information provided to [Midland] [LNR Partners]

Exhibit X-1

[_____] [__], 20[__]

Page 2

by third parties, (b) may not have been verified by [Midland] [LNR Partners], and (c) may be incomplete or contain inaccuracies. The Company agrees that [Midland] [LNR Partners], the [“Master Servicer”] [“Special Servicer”] (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and its Representatives (as defined below) shall not have any liability to the Company or its Representatives resulting from (x) any inaccuracies or omissions in the Confidential Information, (y) any use of the Confidential Information, or (z) [Midland] [LNR Partners]’s failure or inability to provide the Confidential Information to the Company for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following will not constitute “Confidential Information” for purposes of this letter agreement: (a) information that was already in Company’s possession prior to its receipt from [Midland] [LNR Partners]; (b) information that is obtained by Company from a third person who, insofar as is known to Company, is not prohibited from transmitting the information to Company by a contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation to [Midland] [LNR Partners]; (c) information that is or becomes publicly available through no fault of Company; and (d) information that is independently developed by Company. The term “Representatives” with respect to any entity shall mean the officers, directors, general partners, employees, agents, affiliates, auditors and legal counsel (which may be internal counsel) of that entity.

The Company may have access to the Confidential Information through (at [Midland] [LNR Partners]’s election): (i) responses to reasonable written inquiries received from the Company, (ii) conference calls conducted on a reasonably scheduled basis with [Midland] [LNR Partners]’s surveillance group, or (iii) direct on-line access (read-only capacity) to the information available on the applicable [____] system or any successor or replacement system (“System”). [Midland] [LNR Partners] may cease or defer providing the Company with Confidential Information in the event that (a) the Company or its Representatives violate any provision hereof, or (b) [Midland] [LNR Partners] determines (in its sole discretion) that such termination is necessary for any reason, including its determination that such action is required pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the related Mortgage Loan documents, or any applicable law. [Midland] [LNR Partners] shall cease to provide the Company with Confidential Information if [Midland] [LNR Partners] has actual knowledge that the Company or its Representatives are affiliates of any borrower under the Mortgage Loan documents and [Midland] [LNR Partners] determines that the provision, notice or access to such Confidential Information would violate the accepted servicing practices or servicing standards as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Company’s obligations and the restrictions applicable to the protection of the Confidential Information hereunder shall survive the termination of the Company’s access to the Confidential Information. [Midland] [LNR Partners]’s remedies hereunder, at law or at equity, are cumulative and may be combined.

The Company agrees that it will not, and it shall not permit its Representatives, to disclose the Confidential Information in any manner whatsoever to any other person or entity, other than its Representatives (but only to the extent necessary to accomplish the Permitted Purpose) who have a need to know the information, or as otherwise required by applicable law, court order or any governmental agency or regulator. The Company acknowledges (i) its obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws, and (ii) that any disclosure of the Confidential Information by it or its Representatives for any purpose other than a Permitted Purpose, in addition to being a breach of this letter agreement, may constitute a violation of federal and state securities laws. The Company will take reasonable measures to ensure that each Representative is advised of this letter agreement and agrees to keep the Confidential Information confidential. The Company shall be liable for any

Exhibit X-2

[_____] [__], 20[__]

breach of this letter agreement by its Representatives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may subsequently provide all or any part of such Confidential Information to any other person or entity that holds or is contemplating the purchase of any Certificate or interest therein, but only if such person or entity confirms such ownership interest or prospective ownership interest and provided that, prior to the delivery of such Confidential Information, such persons shall have executed and delivered to the Company an agreement that is substantially similar in form and substance to this agreement.

This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without the application of conflict of laws principles. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, [Midland] [LNR Partners] intends at all times to comply with the terms and provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and nothing in this letter agreement should be construed to limit or qualify any of [Midland] [LNR Partners]’s rights or obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. This letter agreement may be executed in counterparts and by facsimile/Portable Document Format (PDF); each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts together shall constitute one agreement.

This agreement shall terminate with respect to the information received by the Company one year after the Company receives such information or ceases to be a Certificateholder. Company agrees that this letter agreement supersedes and replaces and survives any click-through agreement regarding confidentiality of Confidential Information agreed to in connection with accessing the System whether agreed to in accessing the System before or after signing this letter agreement.

GSMC ASSET REVIEW PROCEDURES

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (“PSA”), the Asset Representations Reviewer (“Asset Representations Reviewer”) shall perform an Asset Review with respect to each representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller only with respect to each Delinquent Loan in accordance with the procedures set forth below (each such procedure, a “Test”); provided, however, the Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, modify any Test and/or associated Review Materials described in this Exhibit PP-A if, and only to the extent, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that it is necessary to modify such Test and/or such associated Review Materials in order to facilitate its Asset Review in accordance with the Asset Review Standard. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the PSA or, solely with respect to a representation and warranty, the meaning set forth in the related mortgage loan purchase agreement where GSMC is the Seller (the “GSMC Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement”). For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the performance of the following Tests:

(A) With respect to any representation and warranty that includes a knowledge qualifier (e.g., to the Mortgage Loan Seller’s knowledge, etc.), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be responsible for any investigation or review beyond that set forth in the applicable Test related to such representation and warranty;

(B) With respect to any representation and warranty that includes the examination of an insurance policy or Title Policy, the Asset Representations Reviewer will be permitted to engage a qualified consultant to perform a review of the applicable policy, and will be allowed to rely upon the conclusions of the consultant when making a determination as to whether there is a Test pass.

(C) The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be under no duty to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion;

(D) Unless otherwise provided in the Test, the “as of” date for the testing of a representation is as of the Closing Date;

(E) Unless otherwise provided in the Test, if there is more than one version of the same document with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged Property, the document that will be used by the Asset Representations Reviewer in testing is the document that is dated as of the Closing Date or, if none, the document closest prior to the Closing Date;

(F) With respect to each representation and warranty and its related Test(s), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall take into account any exceptions to such representation and warranty described in the GSMC Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to a Mortgage Loan, and a Test pass shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Test if the sole reason for not satisfying the applicable Test is caused by such exception(s);

Exhibit PP-A-1

(G) Evidence of a failure of a Test could result from (i) an affirmative determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer that the Test failed to achieve a Test pass, or (ii) a determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer that the documentation included in the Review Materials (after making such request for any missing documents in the manner provided for in the PSA) is not sufficient to perform the Test; and

(H) A determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer of a Test pass or a Test failure shall not constitute a determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer of (i) the existence or nonexistence of a Material Defect, or (ii) whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will only be required to perform the Tests described in this Exhibit PP-A, and will not be obligated to perform additional procedures on any Delinquent Loan, even if a different set of procedures or Review Materials could produce a different outcome. Notwithstanding the required Tests, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to review any information other than (1) Review Materials specified in the related Test and (2) if applicable, Unsolicited Information. The Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider Unsolicited Information relevant to the Tests subject to the terms of the PSA. If the Asset Representations Reviewer considers Unsolicited Information, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall take into account such Unsolicited Information, in addition to the Review Materials referred to in the applicable Test(s) procedure when making a determination as to whether there is a Test pass.

 

Exhibit PP-A-2

 

Representations and Warranties		Test	Review Materials
1. Whole Loan; Ownership of Mortgage Loans. Except with respect to a GSMC Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, each GSMC Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a GSMC Mortgage Loan.  Each GSMC Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is a senior or pari passu portion of a whole loan evidenced by a senior or pari passu note.  At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to the depositor, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to GSMC), participation or pledge, and GSMC had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each GSMC Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such GSMC Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment, or similar agreement, any Non-Serviced Pooling Agreement with respect to a Non-Serviced GSMC Mortgage Loan and rights of the holder of a related Companion Loan pursuant to a Co-Lender Agreement. GSMC has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each GSMC Mortgage Loan, and the assignment to the Depositor constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such GSMC Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering any GSMC Mortgage Loan other than the rights of the holder of a related Companion Loan pursuant to a Co-Lender Agreement.	1a	Review the amounts listed on the original Mortgage Note and Mortgage for an indication that they match the amounts listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.  If the amounts are the same, then such GSMC Mortgage Loan would be considered a Whole Loan. If there is more than one property then the Mortgage for each Mortgaged Property would need to be aggregated. If identified as such, it will be a Test pass.	Mortgage; Mortgage Note; Loan agreement related to the GSMC Mortgage Loan (“Loan Agreement”); Mortgage Loan guaranty; Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits; and Environmental Indemnity Agreement (collectively, the “Mortgage Loan Documents”); Mortgage Loan Schedule.
	1b	Review any notice previously delivered by the master servicer or the special servicer, as applicable, of any alleged defect or breach with respect to any Delinquent Loan (collectively, the “MS Servicer Notices”) for notation of any Mortgage Loan or Mortgage that was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to GSMC), participation or pledge, or that GSMC did not have good title to, and was the sole owner of, each GSMC Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such GSMC Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. If no such notation is found, it will be a Test pass.	MS Servicer Notices
	1c	Review the MS Servicer Notices for notation of any claim or assertion regarding GSMC not having the full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer the GSMC Mortgage Loan other than the rights of the holder of a related Companion Loan pursuant to a Co-Lender Agreement. If such notation is not found, it will be a Test pass.	MS Servicer Notices

If such notation is not found, it will be a Test pass.	MS Servicer Notices
2. Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, assignment of leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such GSMC Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Mortgage Loan documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment/yield maintenance fees, charges and/or premiums) are, or may be, further limited or rendered unenforceable by or under applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Mortgage Loan documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the Mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).	2a	Review the opinion of mortgagor’s counsel (“Mortgagor’s Counsel Opinion”) for an indication that it contains language that the related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, assignment of leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such GSMC Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti- deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as specified in representation and warranty 2. If such indication exists, it will be a Test pass.	Mortgagor’s Counsel Opinion
	2b	Review the MS Servicer Notices for notation of any valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Mortgage Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by GSMC in connection with the origination of the GSMC Mortgage Loan, that would deny the mortgagee (as defined in the related GSMC Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) the principal benefits	MS Servicer Notices

If a Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the related GSMC Mortgage Loan and (2) 100% of the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements and personalty and fixtures included in the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements. Each Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate. An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each Mortgaged Property located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the structural and seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the scenario expected limit (“SEL”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event		Area.” If so determined, review the Insurance Summary to determine whether the mortgagor maintains insurance in the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program (irrespective of whether such coverage is provided pursuant to a National Flood Insurance Program policy or through a private policy) plus such additional flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by GSMC for comparable mortgage loans intended for securitization. If so determined, it will be a Test pass.

of an earthquake. In such instance, the SEL was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the SEL would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained from an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC in an amount not less than 100% of the SEL. The Mortgage Loan documents for each GSMC Mortgage Loan require insurance proceeds in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the original or then outstanding principal amount of the related GSMC Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan), the Mortgagee (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such GSMC Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon. All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section required to be paid as of the Cut-off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the Mortgagee under each GSMC Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a Mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the trustee (or, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee). Each related GSMC Mortgage Loan obligates the related mortgagor to maintain (or cause to be maintained) all such insurance and, at such mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the Mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the mortgagor’s reasonable cost and expense and to charge such mortgagor for		meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate. If so determined, it will be a Test pass.

If so determined, determine if the insurer is rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC. The insurance amount should be not less than 100% of the SEL. If so determined with respect to each part of the Test, it will be a Test pass.

Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the PSA or, solely with respect to a representation and warranty, the meaning set forth in the related mortgage loan purchase agreement where Barclays Capital Real Estate Funding Inc., Citi Real Estate Funding Inc., German American Capital Corporation or Bank of Montreal is the Seller (the “Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement”). For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the performance of the following Tests:

(A)                        With respect to any representation and warranty that includes a knowledge qualifier (e.g., to the Mortgage Loan Seller’s knowledge, etc.), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be responsible for any investigation or review beyond that set forth in the applicable Test related to such representation and warranty;

(B)                         With respect to any representation and warranty that includes the examination of an insurance policy or Title Policy, the Asset Representations Reviewer will be permitted to engage a qualified consultant to perform a review of the applicable policy, and will be allowed to rely upon the conclusions of the consultant when making a determination as to whether there is a Test pass.

(C)                         The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be under no duty to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion.

(D)                         Unless otherwise provided in the Test, the “as of” date for the testing of a representation is as of the Closing Date;

(E)                          Unless otherwise provided in the Test, if there is more than one version of the same document with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged Property, the document that will be used by the Asset Representations Reviewer in testing is the document that is dated as of the Closing Date or, if none, the document closest prior to the Closing Date;

(F)                          With respect to each representation and warranty and its related Test(s) the Asset Representations Reviewer shall take into account any exceptions to such representation and warranty described in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to

Exhibit PP-B-1

a Mortgage Loan, and a Test pass shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Test if the sole reason for not satisfying the applicable Test is caused by such exception(s);

(G)                         Evidence of a failure of a Test could result from (i) an affirmative determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer that the Test failed to achieve a Test pass, or (ii) a determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer that the documentation included in the Review Materials (after making such request for any missing documents in the manner provided for in the PSA) is not sufficient to perform the Test; and

(H)                         A determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer of a Test pass or a Test failure shall not constitute a determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer of (i) the existence or nonexistence of a Material Defect, or (ii) whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller.

 

The Asset Representations Reviewer will only be required to perform the Tests described in this Exhibit PP-B, and will not be obligated to perform additional procedures on any Delinquent Loan, even if a different set of procedures or Review Materials could produce a different outcome. Notwithstanding the required Tests, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to review any information other than (1) Review Materials specified in the related Test and (2) if applicable, Unsolicited Information. The Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider Unsolicited Information relevant to the Tests subject to the terms of the PSA. If the Asset Representations Reviewer considers Unsolicited Information, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall take into account such Unsolicited Information, in addition to the Review Materials referred to in the applicable Test(s) procedure when making a determination as to whether there is a Test pass.

This Pooling and Servicing Agreement is dated and effective as of February 1, 2024, between Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, KeyBank National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and BellOak, LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

The Depositor intends to sell commercial mortgage pass-through certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”), to be issued hereunder in multiple classes (each, a “Class”), which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust to be created hereunder, the primary assets of which will be a pool of commercial mortgage loans. As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator shall elect or shall cause an election to be made to treat designated portions of the Trust for federal income tax purposes as two separate real estate mortgage investment conduits (the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC”, and each a “Trust REMIC” as described herein).

The Depositor intends to sell the Certificates to the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers.

LOWER-TIER REMIC

The Lower-Tier REMIC will hold the Mortgage Loans and will issue the Class LA1, Class LA2, Class LA5, Class LASB, Class LAS, Class LB, Class LC, Class LD, Class LE, Class LF, Class LGRR and Class LHRR Uncertificated Interests (the “Lower-Tier Regular Interests”), which will evidence the “regular interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC created hereunder. The Lower-Tier REMIC will also issue the uncertificated Class LR Interest, which is the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC and is represented by the Class R Certificates.

-1-

The following table sets forth the Original Lower-Tier Principal Amounts and per annum rates of interest for the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Class LR Interest:

Class Designation	Interest Rate	Original Lower-Tier Principal Amount

Class LA2	(1)	$	96,400,000

⁽¹⁾ The interest rate for each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests on any Distribution Date will be the Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate for such Distribution Date.

⁽²⁾ The Class LR Interest (evidenced by the Class R Certificates) will not have a Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Available Funds remaining in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account after distributing the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount will be deemed distributed to the Class LR Interest and shall be payable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

UPPER-TIER REMIC

The Upper-Tier REMIC will hold the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and will issue the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-5, Class A-SB, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR and Class H-RR Certificates, each of which represents a class of “regular interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC created hereunder. The Upper-Tier REMIC shall also issue the uncertificated Class UR Interest, which is the sole class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions and is represented by the Class R Certificates. The Class UR Interest will not have a Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Prepayment Premiums or Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Available Funds remaining in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account after all required distributions under this Agreement have been made to each Class of Regular Certificates will be deemed distributed to the Class UR Interest and shall be payable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

Collections, Default Interest, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or any other recovery on or in respect of such Mortgage Loan or the related REO Property (without giving effect to potential recoveries on deficiency judgments or recoveries from guarantors), or (b) has determined that such Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount, along with any other Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts (that have not been reimbursed to the party that made such Advance) or unreimbursed Nonrecoverable Advances, would not be ultimately recoverable from the principal portion of future general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.

Any such determination may be conclusively relied upon by, and shall be binding upon, the Master Servicer and the Trustee (but this statement shall not be construed to entitle the Special Servicer to reverse the determination of the Master Servicer or the Trustee or to prohibit the Master Servicer or the Trustee from making a determination that a P&I Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance), provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall have no such obligation to make an affirmative determination that any P&I Advance is or would be recoverable and in the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such P&I Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, such decision shall remain with the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion, and not all, of any previously made or proposed P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed P&I Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance.

Similarly, with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines that any P&I Advance with respect to a related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable P&I

Advance, such determination shall not be binding on the determination by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and related Non-Serviced Trustee as it relates to any proposed payment advance with respect to the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan (unless the related Non-Serviced PSA provides otherwise).

In addition, any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and, consistent with the Servicing Standard, in the case of the Master Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), may obtain at the expense of the Trust any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for making a recoverability determination (and, upon the reasonable request by the Trustee, Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall deliver any relevant Appraisals or market value estimates in its possession to the requesting party for such purpose). Absent bad faith, the Master Servicer’s, Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s determination as to the recoverability of any P&I Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders.

Advance, or any updated or changed recoverability determination, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered by either the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer to the other and to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (but only prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and only with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan) (and, in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer), the Operating Advisor (but only in the case of the Special Servicer) and the Depositor, or by the Trustee to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator (and, in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer).

In making such recoverability determination, such Person shall be entitled (a) to consider (among other things) (i) the obligations of the Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable, as it may have been modified and (ii) the related Mortgaged Properties in their “as-is” or then-current conditions and occupancies, as modified by such party’s assumptions (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) regarding the possibility and effects of future adverse change with respect to such Mortgaged Properties, (b) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) future expenses, (c) to estimate and consider (consistent with the Servicing Standard in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee) (among other things) the timing of recoveries and (d) to give due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advances which, at the time of such consideration, the recovery of which are being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee because there is insufficient principal available for such recovery, in light of the fact that related proceeds are a source of recovery not only for the Advance under consideration but also a potential source of recovery for such delayed or deferred Advance. In addition, any Person, in considering whether a Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, shall be entitled to give

-73-

due regard to the existence of any Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts with respect to other Mortgage Loans, the reimbursement of which, at the time of such consideration, is being deferred or delayed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee, in light of the fact that proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan are a source of recovery not only for the Servicing Advance under consideration, but also as a potential source of recovery of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amounts which are or may be being deferred or delayed. In addition, any such Person may update or change its recoverability determinations at any time (but not reverse any other Person’s determination that an Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance) and, consistent with the Servicing Standard, in the case of the Master Servicer or in its good faith business judgment in the case of the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), may obtain at the expense of the Trust any reasonably required analysis, Appraisals or market value estimates or other information for making a recoverability determination (and, upon the reasonable request by the Trustee, Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall deliver any relevant Appraisals or market value estimates in its possession to the requesting party for such purpose). Absent bad faith, the Master Servicer’s, Special Servicer’s or the Trustee’s determination as to the recoverability of any Servicing Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Certificateholders. The determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, that a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance has been made or that any proposed Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, or any updated or changed recoverability determination, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered by either of the Special Servicer or Master Servicer to the other and to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder (but only prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and only with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan) (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer and Other Trustee), the Operating Advisor (but only in the case of the Special Servicer) and the Depositor, or by the Trustee to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Certificate Administrator (and in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any Other Servicer); provided, however, that the Special Servicer may, at its option (with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), in consultation with the Directing Certificateholder) make a determination in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that any Servicing Advance previously made or proposed to be made is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance and shall deliver to the Master Servicer (and with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the applicable master servicer under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer), the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the 17g-5 Information Provider notice of such determination. Any such determination may be conclusively relied upon by, and shall be binding upon, the Master Servicer and the Trustee (but this statement shall not be construed to entitle the Special Servicer to reverse the determination of the Master Servicer or the Trustee or to prohibit the Master Servicer or the Trustee from making a determination that a P&I Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance), provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall have no such obligation to make an affirmative determination that any Servicing Advance is or would be recoverable and in the absence of a determination by the Special Servicer that such Servicing Advance is or would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, such decision shall remain with

-74-

the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion, and not all, of any previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall each have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Officer’s Certificate shall set forth such determination of nonrecoverability and the considerations of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, forming the basis of such determination (which shall be accompanied by, to the extent available, related income and expense statements, rent rolls, occupancy status, property inspections and any other information used by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, to make such determination and shall include any existing Appraisal with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan or related Mortgaged Property). The Special Servicer shall promptly furnish any party required to make Servicing Advances hereunder with any information in its possession regarding the Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as such party required to make Servicing Advances may reasonably request for purposes of making recoverability determinations. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s determination that a Servicing Advance is or would be nonrecoverable, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination that a Servicing Advance is or would be nonrecoverable. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Special Servicer requests that the Master Servicer make a Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer may conclusively rely on such request as evidence that such advance is not a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance; provided, however, the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request more frequently than once per calendar month with respect to Servicing Advances other than emergency advances (although such request may relate to more than one Servicing Advance). In the case of a cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan (if any), such recoverability determination shall take into account the cross-collateralization of the related cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan. The determination as to the recoverability of any Servicing Advance previously made or proposed to be made in respect of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be made by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer or Non-Serviced Trustee, as the case may be, pursuant to the related Non-Serviced PSA.

If a letter of credit referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Mortgage Loan documents, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the related Mortgage Loan Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Custodian within thirty (30) days of the Closing Date. If not otherwise paid by the related Mortgagor, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trust and shall cooperate with the

-124-

reasonable requests of the Master Servicer in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trust.

(c)               Pursuant to each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, except in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller is required at its sole cost and expense, to itself, or to engage a third party to, put each Assignment of Mortgage, each assignment of Assignment of Leases and each assignment of each UCC Financing Statement (collectively, the “Assignments” and, individually, “Assignment”) relating to the Mortgage Loans conveyed by it under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in proper form for filing or recording, as applicable, and to submit such Assignments for filing or recording, as the case may be, in the applicable public filing or recording office. On the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan Sellers may deliver one (1) omnibus assignment for all such Mortgage Loans as provided in Section 2.01(b). Except under the circumstances provided for in the last sentence of this subsection (c) and except in the case of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller will itself, or a third party at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense will, promptly (and in any event within one hundred twenty (120) days after the later of the Closing Date and the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s actual receipt of the related documents and the necessary recording and filing information) cause to be submitted for recording or filing, as the case may be, in the appropriate public office for real property records or UCC Financing Statements, as appropriate, each Assignment. Each such Assignment submitted for recording shall reflect that it (or a file copy thereof in the case of a UCC Assignment) should be returned by the public recording office to the Custodian or its designee following recording or filing (or to the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its agent who will then be responsible for delivery of the same to the Custodian or its designee). Any such Assignment received by the Custodian shall be promptly included in the related Mortgage File and be deemed a part thereof, and any such Assignment received by the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its agent shall be required to be delivered to the Custodian to be included as part of the related Mortgage File within thirty (30) days after receipt. If any such document or instrument is determined to be incomplete or not to meet the recording or filing requirements of the jurisdiction in which it is to be recorded or filed, or is lost by the public office or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, on or about one hundred-eighty (180) days after the Closing Date, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee shall prepare, at its own expense, a substitute therefor or cure such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee shall, at the expense of such Mortgage Loan Seller, upon receipt thereof cause the same to be duly recorded or filed, as appropriate. If, by the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Custodian has not received confirmation of the recording or filing as the case may be, of any such Assignment, it shall so advise the related Mortgage Loan Seller who may then pursue such confirmation itself or request that the Custodian pursue such confirmation at the related Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense, and upon such a request and provision for payment of such expenses satisfactory to the Custodian, the Custodian, at the expense of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, shall cause a search of the land records of each applicable jurisdiction and of the records of the offices of the applicable Secretary of State for confirmation that the Assignment appears in such records and retain a copy of such confirmation in the related Mortgage File. In the event that confirmation of the recording or filing of an Assignment cannot be obtained, the Custodian or the related Mortgage Loan Seller, as applicable, shall promptly inform the other and the Custodian shall provide such Mortgage Loan Seller with a copy of the Assignment and

-125-

request the preparation of a new Assignment. The related Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay the expenses for the preparation of replacement Assignments for any Assignments which, having been properly submitted for filing or recording to the appropriate governmental office by the Custodian, fail to appear of record and must be resubmitted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be no requirement to record any assignment to the Trustee referred to in clause (iii) or (v) of the definition of “Mortgage File,” or to file any UCC-3 to the Trustee referred to in clause (ix) of the definition of “Mortgage File,” in those jurisdictions where, in the written opinion of local counsel (which opinion shall be an expense of the related Mortgage Loan Seller) acceptable to the Depositor and the Trustee, such recordation and/or filing is not required to protect the Trustee’s interest in the related Mortgage Loan, against sale, further assignment, satisfaction or discharge by the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, any Sub-Servicer or the Depositor.

(d)               All documents and records in the Depositor’s or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s possession relating to the Mortgage Loans (including, in each case, financial statements, appraisals, environmental reports, engineering reports, transaction screens, seismic assessment reports, leases, rent rolls, Insurance Policies and certificates, major space leases, legal opinions, tenant estoppels and any other relevant documents relating to the origination and servicing of any Mortgage Loan or related Whole Loan that are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the applicable Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, but excluding the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s internal communications (including such communications between such Mortgage Loan Seller and its Affiliates) and underwriting analysis (including documents prepared by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or any of its Affiliates for such purposes), draft documents, attorney-client communications that are privileged communications or constitute legal or other due diligence analyses and credit underwriting or due diligence analyses or data) that (i) are not required to be a part of a Mortgage File in accordance with the definition thereof and (ii) are reasonably necessary for the servicing of each such Mortgage Loan, together with copies of all documents in each Mortgage File, shall be delivered by the Depositor or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller to the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date and shall be held by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) and, if applicable, on behalf of the related Companion Holder. Such documents and records shall be any documents and records (with the exception of any items excluded under the immediately preceding sentence) that would otherwise be a part of the Servicing File.

(e)               In connection with the Depositor’s assignment pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, on or before two (2) Business Days after the Closing Date, a fully executed original counterpart of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements, as in full force and effect, without amendment or modification, on the Closing Date.

(f)                The Depositor shall use its reasonable best efforts to require that, promptly after the Closing Date, but in all events within three (3) Business Days after the Closing Date, each of the Mortgage Loan Sellers shall cause all unapplied reserve funds and Escrow Payments in the possession or under the control of the Mortgage Loan Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) transferred by such Mortgage Loan Seller,

-126-

whether such accounts are held in the name of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or any other name, to be transferred to the Master Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer) for deposit into Servicing Accounts.

(g)               With respect to the Franchise Required Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee will be required to provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor (with a copy of such notice or request to the Master Servicer) within forty-five (45) days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter). If the Master Servicer is unable to acquire any such replacement comfort letter (or new document or acknowledgment, as applicable) within 120 days of the Closing Date, the Master Servicer shall notify the related Mortgage Loan Seller that no such replacement comfort letter has been received.

(h)               Each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall provide that within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date, each Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered the Diligence Files for each of its Mortgage Loans to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence Files to the Designated Site. Promptly upon completion of such delivery of the Diligence Files (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date), the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall provide to each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Directing Certificateholder, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor an officer’s certificate to the addresses set forth for such parties in Section 13.05, signed by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller certifying that the electronic copies of the documents and information uploaded to the Designated Site constitute all documents and information required under the definition of “Diligence File” (the “Diligence File Certification”).

(i)                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.01 or in Section 2.02, in connection with each Servicing Shift Whole Loan, (1) instruments of assignment to the Trustee may be in blank and need not be recorded pursuant to this Agreement (other than the endorsements to the note(s) evidencing the related Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan) until the earlier of (i) the Servicing Shift Date, in which case such instruments shall be assigned and recorded in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA, (ii) the Servicing Shift Whole Loan becoming a Specially Serviced Loan prior to the Servicing Shift Date and (iii) 180 days after the Closing Date, in which case assignments and recordations shall be effected in accordance with this Section 2.01 until the occurrence, if any, of the Servicing Shift Date, (2) no letter of credit need be amended (including, without limitation, to change the beneficiary thereon) until the earliest of (i) the Servicing Shift Date, in which case such amendment shall be in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA, (ii) the Servicing Shift Whole Loan becoming a Specially Serviced Loan prior to the Servicing Shift Date in which case such amendment shall be effected in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.01 and (iii) the earlier of (A) 180 days after the Closing Date and (B) any such time as any such letter of credit is required to be drawn upon by the Master Servicer in which case such amendment shall be effected in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.01, and (3) on and following the Servicing Shift Date, the Person selling the related Servicing Shift Control Note to the related Non-Serviced Depositor, at its own

-127-

expense, shall be (a) entitled to direct in writing, which may be conclusively relied upon by the Custodian, the Custodian to deliver the originals of all the Mortgage Loan documents relating to the Servicing Shift Whole Loan in its possession (other than the original note(s) evidencing the Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan) to the related Non-Serviced Trustee or the related Non-Serviced Custodian, (b) if the right under clause (a) is exercised, required to cause the retention by or delivery to the Custodian of photocopies of Mortgage Loan documents related to the Servicing Shift Whole Loan so delivered to such Non-Serviced Trustee or such Non-Serviced Custodian, (c) entitled to cause the completion (or, in the event of a recordation as contemplated by clause (1)(ii) of this paragraph, the preparation, execution and delivery) and recordation of instruments of assignment in the name of the related Non-Serviced Trustee or related Non-Serviced Custodian, (d) if the right under clause (c) is exercised, required to deliver to the Trustee or Custodian photocopies of any instruments of assignment so completed and recorded, and (e) entitled to require the Master Servicer to transfer, and to cooperate with all reasonable requests in connection with the transfer of, the Servicing File, and any Escrow Payments, reserve funds and items specified in clauses (x) and (xii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” for the Servicing Shift Whole Loan to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer.

(j)                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers to deliver a Mortgage Note (and any related allonge or assignment) to the Custodian shall be limited to delivery of only the Mortgage Note (and any related allonge or assignment) held by such party to the Custodian. With respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan, the obligations of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers to deliver the remaining portion of the related Mortgage File or any document required to be delivered with respect thereto shall be joint and several, provided that either of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers may deliver one Mortgage File or one of any other document required to be delivered with respect to such Mortgage Loan hereunder and such delivery shall satisfy such delivery requirements for each of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers.

(k)               Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge that the trust established under this Agreement is intended to be treated as a bare trust for Canadian federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the parties to this Agreement agree not to make any Canadian tax filing or take any Canadian tax position that is inconsistent with the treatment of the trust as a bare trust. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or any other party to this Agreement is responsible for any Canadian tax administration, or has any liability for any Canadian tax consequences.

Section 2.02        Acceptance by Trustee. (a)  The Trustee, by the execution and delivery of this Agreement (1) acknowledges receipt by it or the Custodian on its behalf, subject to the provisions of Section 2.01, in good faith and without notice of any adverse claim, of the applicable documents specified in clause (i) of the definition of “Mortgage File” with respect to each Mortgage Loan and of all other assets included in the Trust Fund and (2) declares (a) that it or a Custodian on its behalf holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers that constitute the Mortgage Files in the name of the Trust for the benefit of all present and future Certificateholders, and (b) that it holds and will hold such other assets included in the Trust Fund, in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders and, with respect to any

-128-

original document in the Mortgage File for a Serviced Whole Loan, for any present or future Companion Holder (and for the benefit of the Trustee as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), as applicable. If any Mortgage Loan Seller is unable to deliver or cause the delivery of any original Mortgage Note, such Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver a copy of such Mortgage Note, together with a signed lost note affidavit and appropriate indemnity and shall thereby be deemed to have satisfied the document delivery requirements of Section 2.01 and of this Section 2.02.

(b)               Within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date, the Custodian shall review the Mortgage Loan documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers constituting the Mortgage Files and, promptly following such review (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date), the Custodian shall, in the form attached as Exhibit Q, certify in writing to each of the Rating Agencies, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (so long as no Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing), the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Operating Advisor and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full)) that, except as specifically identified in any exception report annexed to such writing (the “Custodial Exception Report”), (i) subject to the final proviso of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein and Section 2.01 hereof, all documents specified in clauses (i) through (v), (viii), (ix), (xi), (xii) and (xiii) (or, with respect to clause (xii), a copy of such letter of credit and the required Officer’s Certificate), if any, of the definition of “Mortgage File”, as applicable, are in its possession, (ii) the foregoing documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers have been reviewed by the Custodian and appear regular on their face and appear to be executed and to relate to such Mortgage Loan, and (iii) based on such examination and only as to the foregoing documents, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the items specified in clauses (iv), (vi) and (viii)(c) in the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” is correct. With respect to each Mortgage Loan listed on the Custodial Exception Report, the Custodian shall specifically identify such Mortgage Loan together with the nature of such exception (in the form reasonably acceptable to the Custodian and the related Mortgage Loan Seller and separating items required to be in the Mortgage File but never delivered from items which were delivered by the related Mortgage Loan Seller but are out for filing or recording and have not been returned by the filing office or the recorder’s office).

(c)               The Custodian shall review the Mortgage Loan documents received subsequent to the Closing Date; and, on or about the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Custodian shall, in the form attached as Exhibit Q, certify in writing to each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (as to each Mortgage Loan listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any related Mortgage Loan as to which a Liquidation Event has occurred) or any related Mortgage Loan specifically identified in any exception report annexed to such writing) that, (i) subject to the final proviso of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein and Section 2.01 hereof, all documents specified in clauses (i) through (v), (viii), (ix), (xi), (xii) and (xiii), if any, of the definition of “Mortgage File”, as applicable, are in its possession, (ii) the foregoing documents delivered or caused to be delivered by the Mortgage Loan Sellers have been reviewed by the Custodian and appear regular on their face and appear to be executed and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on such examination and only as to the

-129-

foregoing documents, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the items specified in clauses (iv), (vi) and (viii)(c) in the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” is correct.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.02 and Section 2.03(b) to the contrary, in the case of a Material Defect in any of the documents specified in clauses (ii) through (v), (vii), (viii) and (ix) in the definition of “Mortgage File”, which Material Defect results solely from a delay in the return of the related documents from the applicable filing or recording office and gives rise to a repurchase or substitution obligation on the part of the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the subject Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Directing Certificateholder, in its sole judgment, may (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan and, with respect to any other Mortgage Loan, only prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event), and the Special Servicer may, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, permit the related Mortgage Loan Seller in lieu of repurchasing or substituting for the related Mortgage Loan, to deposit with the Master Servicer an amount, to be held in trust in a segregated Eligible Account (which may be a sub-account of the Collection Account), equal to 25% of the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan (in the alternative, the related Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver to the Master Servicer a letter of credit in such amount, with a copy to the Custodian). Such funds or letter of credit, as applicable, shall be held by the Master Servicer (i) until the date on which the Custodian determines and notifies the Master Servicer that such Material Defect has been cured or the related Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund, at which time the Master Servicer shall return such funds (or letter of credit) to the related Mortgage Loan Seller, or (ii) until the same are applied to the Purchase Price (or the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if applicable) as set forth below in this Section 2.02(d) in the event of a repurchase or substitution by the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Notwithstanding the two immediately preceding sentences, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer certifies to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Custodian that it has determined in the exercise of its reasonable judgment that the document with respect to which such Material Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the mortgagee’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on collateral securing the related Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation, the related Mortgage Loan Seller or Additional Repurchase Obligor shall be required to repurchase or substitute for the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with, and to the extent required by, the terms and conditions of Section 2.03(b) and Section 5 or Section 19, as applicable, of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that such Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be required to repurchase the Mortgage Loan for a period of ninety (90) days after receipt of a notice to repurchase (together with any applicable extension period) if it is attempting to recover the document from the applicable filing or recording office and provides an officer’s certificate setting forth what actions such Mortgage Loan Seller is pursuing in connection with such recovery. In the event of a repurchase or substitution, upon the date of such repurchase or substitution, and in the event that the related Mortgage Loan Seller has delivered a letter of credit to the Master Servicer in accordance with this Section 2.02(d), the Master Servicer shall, to the extent necessary, draw on the letter of credit and deposit the proceeds of such draw, into the Collection Account to be applied to the Purchase Price (or the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if

-130-

applicable, in which event, the amount of such funds or proceeds that exceed the Substitution Shortfall Amount shall be returned to the related Mortgage Loan Seller) in accordance with Section 2.03(b). All such funds deposited in the Collection Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments, at the direction and for the benefit of the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Such funds shall be treated as an “outside reserve fund” under the REMIC Provisions, which, together with any reimbursement from the Lower-Tier REMIC, is beneficially owned by the related Mortgage Loan Seller for federal income tax purposes, which Mortgage Loan Seller shall remain liable for any taxes payable on income or gain with respect thereto.

(e)               It is herein acknowledged that neither the Trustee nor any Custodian is under any duty or obligation (i) to determine whether any of the documents specified in clauses (vi), (vii) and (xii) through (xviii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” exist or are required to be delivered by the Depositor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers or any other Person (unless identified on the Mortgage Loan Checklist) or (ii) to inspect, review or examine any of the documents, instruments, certificates or other papers relating to the Mortgage Loans delivered to it to determine that the same are genuine, enforceable, duly authorized, sufficient to perfect and maintain the perfection of a security interest or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face and, with respect to the documents specified in clause (viii) of the definition of the “Mortgage File”, whether the insurance is effective as of the date of the recordation, whether all endorsements or riders issued are included in the file or if the policy has not been issued whether any acceptable replacement document has been dated the date of the related Mortgage Loan funding. Further, with respect to the UCC Financing Statements referenced in the Mortgage File, absent actual knowledge to the contrary or copies of UCC Financing Statements delivered to the Custodian as part of the Mortgage File indicating otherwise, the Custodian may assume, for the purposes of the filings and the certification to be delivered in accordance with this Section 2.02 that the related Mortgage File should include one state level UCC Financing Statement filing for each Mortgaged Property (or with respect to any Mortgage Loan that has two or more Mortgagors, for each Mortgagor, except to the extent multiple Mortgagors are named as debtors in the same UCC Financing Statement filing), or if the Custodian has received notice that a particular UCC Financing Statement was filed as a fixture filing, that the related Mortgage File should include only a local UCC Financing Statement filing for each Mortgaged Property (or with respect to any Mortgage Loan that has two or more Mortgagors, for each Mortgagor, except to the extent multiple Mortgagors are named as debtors in the same UCC Financing Statement filing). The assignments of the UCC Financing Statements to be assigned to the Trust will be delivered on the national forms (or on such other form as may be acceptable for filing or recording in the applicable jurisdiction) and in a format suitable for filing or recording, as applicable, and will be filed or recorded in the jurisdiction(s) where such UCC Financing Statements were originally filed or recorded, as indicated in the documents provided, and in accordance with then-current laws.

(f)                If, in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files or at any time thereafter, the Custodian finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File (1) not to have been properly executed, (2) subject to the timing requirements of Sections  2.01(b) and 2.01(c), not to have been delivered, (3) to contain information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule or (4) to be defective on its face (each, a “Defect” in the related Mortgage File), the Custodian shall promptly so notify the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the

-131-

Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (and in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date and every calendar quarter thereafter until all Defects are corrected) by providing a Custodial Exception Report setting forth for each affected Mortgage Loan, with particularity, the nature of such Defect (in a form reasonably acceptable to the Custodian and such Mortgage Loan Seller and separating items required to be in the Mortgage File but never delivered from items which were delivered by such Mortgage Loan Seller but are out for recording or filing and have not been returned by the recorder’s office or filing office).

Pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, each of the Mortgage Loan Sellers will be required to effect (at the expense of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller) the assignment and recordation of its respective Mortgage Loan documents until the assignment and recordation of all such Mortgage Loan documents has been completed.

(g)               If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (i) receives a Repurchase Request or any other request or demand from any Person for a Mortgage Loan Seller to repurchase or replace a Mortgage Loan because of an alleged Defect or Breach (together with a Repurchase Request, a “15Ga-1 Repurchase Request”) (the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to the extent it receives such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, the “Repurchase Request Recipient” with respect to such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request); or (ii) receives any withdrawal of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request by the Person making such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request or any rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (or such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is forwarded to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer by another party hereto), then the Repurchase Request Recipient shall deliver notice (which may be by electronic format so long as a “backup” hard copy of such notice is also delivered on or prior to the next Business Day) of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request or withdrawal or rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (each, a “15Ga-1 Notice”) to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (other than in the case of a rejection by such Mortgage Loan Seller) and the Depositor, in each case within ten (10) Business Days from such Repurchase Request Recipient’s receipt thereof.

Each 15Ga-1 Notice shall include (i) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the date the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is received by the Repurchase Request Recipient or the date any withdrawal of the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request is received by the Repurchase Request Recipient, as applicable, (iii) if known, the basis for the 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request), (iv) the identity of the Person making such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, and (v) a statement from the Repurchase Request Recipient as to whether it currently plans to pursue such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request.

A Repurchase Request Recipient shall not be required to provide any information in a 15Ga-1 Notice protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. The Depositor shall cause the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements to provide that (i) any 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to this Section 2.02(g) is so provided only to assist the Mortgage Loan Sellers and Depositor or their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law or regulation and (ii) (A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Repurchase Request Recipient and (B) no information provided pursuant to this Section 2.02(g) by a Repurchase Request Recipient, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the

-132-

Repurchase Request Recipient may have with respect to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a 15Ga-1 Notice.

In the event that the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian receives a Repurchase Request, such party shall promptly forward or otherwise provide written notice of such Repurchase Request to the Master Servicer, if relating to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, or to the Special Servicer, if relating to a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property, and include the following statement in the related correspondence: “This is a ‘Repurchase Request’ under Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to the BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-C24, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-C24 requiring action by you as the ‘Repurchase Request Recipient’ thereunder.” Upon receipt of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, such party shall be deemed to be the Repurchase Request Recipient in respect of such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request, and such party shall comply with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.02(g) with respect to such 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request. In no event shall the Custodian, by virtue of this provision, be required to provide any notice other than as set forth in Section 2.02 of this Agreement in connection with its review of the Mortgage File.

If the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian receives notice or has knowledge of a withdrawal or a rejection of a 15Ga-1 Repurchase Request of which notice has been previously received or given, and such notice was not received from or copied to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, then such party shall give notice of such withdrawal or rejection to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable. Any such notice received by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Custodian shall also be provided to the Depositor and, in the case of a withdrawal notice, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller.

In the event that a Mortgage Loan is repurchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 of this Agreement, the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) shall promptly notify the Depositor of such repurchase or replacement.

Section 2.03        Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Depositor; Mortgage Loan Sellers’ Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans for Defects in Mortgage Files and Breaches of Representations and Warranties. (a)  The Depositor hereby represents and warrants that:

(iii)                               The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder by the Depositor will not conflict with any provisions of any law or regulations to which the Depositor is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the certificate of formation or operating agreement of the Depositor or any indenture, agreement or instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Depositor, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Depositor’s assets or property, which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Depositor to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; the Depositor has obtained any consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Depositor of this Agreement;

(iv)                              There is no action, suit or proceeding pending or, to the Depositor’s knowledge, threatened against the Depositor in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of the Mortgage Loans or the ability of the Depositor to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and

(v)                                 The Depositor is the lawful owner of the Mortgage Loans with the full right to transfer the Mortgage Loans to the Trust, and the Mortgage Loans have been validly transferred to the Trust.

(b)               After its receipt of a Repurchase Request, the Master Servicer (if the related Mortgage Loan is a Non-Specially Serviced Loan) or the Special Servicer (if the related Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan), as applicable, shall request in writing that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, not later than ninety (90) days following the earlier of (i) such Mortgage Loan Seller’s discovery of any Material Defect, (ii) such Mortgage Loan Seller’s receipt of notice of any Material Defect from any party to this Agreement or (iii) in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, but without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that causes a defective Mortgage Loan to be treated as a qualified mortgage, the earlier of (x) the discovery of any Material Defect by any party to this Agreement or (y) receipt of a notice of any Material Defect by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (such 90-day period, the “Initial Cure Period”), (A) cure such Material Defect in all material respects, at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s own expense, including reimbursement of any related additional expenses of the Trust incurred by any party to this Agreement, (B) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or REO Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the

-134-

applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) (excluding any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable), at the applicable Purchase Price and in conformity with the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement or (C) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to the Whole Loans, for which no substitution will be permitted) for such affected Mortgage Loan or REO Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) (excluding any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable) (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur on or after the second anniversary of the Closing Date) and pay the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith and in conformity with the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement; provided, however, that except with respect to a Material Defect resulting solely from the failure by the Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver to the Trustee or Custodian the actual policy of lender’s title insurance required pursuant to clause (viii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” by a date not later than eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date, if such Material Defect is capable of being cured but is not cured within the Initial Cure Period, and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within the Initial Cure Period, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall have an additional ninety (90) days commencing immediately upon the expiration of the Initial Cure Period (such additional ninety (90) day period, the “Extended Cure Period”) to complete such cure (or, failing such cure, to repurchase the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) (excluding any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable) or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (other than with respect to the Whole Loans, for which no substitution will be permitted)) and provided, further, that with respect to such Extended Cure Period the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall have delivered an officer’s certificate to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator (who shall promptly deliver a copy of such officer’s certificate to the 17g-5 Information Provider), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and (with respect to any Mortgage other than an Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event) the Directing Certificateholder, setting forth the reason such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the Initial Cure Period and what actions the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller anticipates that such Material Defect will be cured within the Extended Cure Period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is not cured after the Initial Cure Period and any such Extended Cure Period solely due to the failure of the related Mortgage Loan Seller to have received the recorded document, then such Mortgage Loan Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect until eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date for so long as such Mortgage Loan Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) and the Certificate Administrator no less than every ninety (90) days, beginning at the end of such Extended Cure Period, that such Material Defect is still in effect solely because of the failure of the applicable recording office to have recorded as filed or returned evidence of filing the document (or made such evidence available online) and that such Mortgage Loan Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such Material Defect (specifying the actions being taken). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Defect or

-135-

Breach which causes any Mortgage Loan not to be a “qualified mortgage” (within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, but without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that causes a defective Mortgage Loan to be treated as a qualified mortgage) shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interests of Certificateholders therein, and (subject to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s right to cure such Defect or Breach during the Initial Cure Period) such Mortgage Loan shall be repurchased or substituted for without regard to the Extended Cure Period described in the preceding sentence. If the affected Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased, the funds in the amount of the Purchase Price remitted by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) are to be remitted by wire transfer to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account.

If a Mortgage Loan Seller, in connection with a Material Defect (or an allegation of a Material Defect) pertaining to a Mortgage Loan, makes a cash payment pursuant to an agreement or a settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust (and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan or a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, in either case, with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) (each such payment, a “Loss of Value Payment”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such Loss of Value Payment shall be deposited into the Loss of Value Reserve Fund to be applied in accordance with Section 3.05(g) of this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall (i) determine the amount of any applicable Loss of Value Payment (with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder in respect of any Mortgage Loan that is not an Excluded Loan and for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) and, in the case of any PSA Party Repurchase Request with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans prior to the occurrence of a Resolution Failure, shall communicate such amount to the Master Servicer for its enforcement action with the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and (ii) with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, use reasonable efforts to notify the Master Servicer of the receipt of a Loss of Value Payment. In connection with any such determination with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide the Special Servicer, but in any event within the time frame and in the manner provided in Section 3.19, with the Servicing File and all documents and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Non-Specially Serviced Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan(s), either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise reasonably available to the Master Servicer, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to the extent set forth in Section 3.19 in order to permit the Special Servicer to calculate the Loss of Value Payment as set forth in this Section 2.03(b). The Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees and reimbursable expenses of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan. If such Loss of Value Payment is made, the Loss of Value Payment shall serve as the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders and the Trustee on their behalf regarding any such Material Defect in lieu of any obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller to otherwise cure such Material Defect or repurchase or substitute for the affected Mortgage Loan based on such Material Defect under any circumstances. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust, provided that (i) prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Mortgage Loan Seller or

-136-

the Special Servicer from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and timing set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Section 2.03 (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for such Mortgage Loan); (ii) such Loss of Value Payment shall not be greater than the Purchase Price of the affected Mortgage Loan; and (iii) a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that causes a defective Mortgage Loan to be treated as a qualified mortgage) may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment.

With respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if a Material Document Defect under, as such term or any analogous term is defined in, the related Non-Serviced PSA exists with respect to the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan, and if the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (or other responsibly party) repurchases the Non-Serviced Companion Loan from the related Non-Serviced Trust, then the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly repurchase such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan at the applicable Purchase Price; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any Material Document Defect related to the promissory note for the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan.

If any Breach that constitutes a Material Defect pertains to a representation or warranty that the related Mortgage Loan documents or any particular Mortgage Loan document requires the related Mortgagor to bear the costs and expenses associated with any particular action or matter under such Mortgage Loan document(s), then the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall cure such Breach within the applicable cure period (as the same may be extended) by reimbursing the Trust (by wire transfer of immediately available funds) for (i) the reasonable amount of any such costs and expenses incurred by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust that are incurred as a result of such Breach and have not been reimbursed by the related Mortgagor and (ii) the amount of any fees payable by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer to the extent not previously paid by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that if the Breach relates to a Joint Mortgage Loan, each Mortgage Loan Seller shall be responsible for its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of all such costs and expenses unless such Breach relates solely to the Mortgage Note contributed by such Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, further, however, that in the event any such costs and expenses exceed $10,000, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the option to either repurchase or substitute for the related Mortgage Loan as provided above or pay such costs and expenses. Except as provided in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall remit the amount of such costs and expenses and upon its making such remittance, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have cured such Breach in all respects. To the extent that any fees or expenses that are the subject of a cure by the related Mortgage Loan Seller are subsequently obtained from the related Mortgagor, the portion of the cure payment made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller equal to such fees or expenses obtained from the related Mortgagor shall promptly be returned to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Periodic Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Periodic Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the

-137-

related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Periodic Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Periodic Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and are to be remitted by the Master Servicer (or by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer who shall then remit such funds) to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller effecting the related repurchase or substitution promptly following receipt. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, a delay in either the discovery of a Material Defect or in providing notice of such Material Defect shall not relieve the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller of its obligation to cure, repurchase or substitute for (or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to) the related Mortgage Loan if it is otherwise required to do so under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and/or this Article II unless (i) the related Mortgage Loan Seller did not otherwise discover or have knowledge of such Material Defect, (ii) such delay is a result of the failure by a party to the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, or this Agreement, to provide prompt notice as required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, or this Agreement, after such party has actual knowledge of such Material Defect (knowledge shall not be deemed to exist by reason of the Custodial Exception Report), (iii) such Material Defect does not relate to the applicable Mortgage Loan not being a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, but without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that causes a defective obligation to be treated as a qualified mortgage, and (iv) such delay precludes such Mortgage Loan Seller from curing such Material Defect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC Financing Statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

The parties acknowledge that certain Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements may provide for an Additional Repurchase Obligor that is required to perform the obligations of the related Mortgage Loan Seller described in this Section 2.03(b) or a guarantor of such obligations, in each case, to the extent set forth in the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, if there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties with respect to a Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase the Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Mortgage Loan documents (and such Mortgaged Property is, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the Mortgage Loan documents and the related Mortgage Loan Seller provides an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such release in lieu of repurchase would not cause an Adverse REMIC Event and (iii) each applicable Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

-138-

(c)               Subject to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller’s right to cure as contemplated above in this Section 2.03, and further subject to Section 2.01(b) and Section 2.01(c), any of the following shall cause a document in the Mortgage File to be deemed to have a “Defect” that constitutes a Material Defect and to be conclusively presumed to materially and adversely affect the interests of Certificateholders in a Mortgage Loan (but solely with respect to clause (a)) and to be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders in and the value of a Mortgage Loan: (a) the absence from the Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage Note, unless the Mortgage File contains a signed lost note affidavit and indemnity with a copy of the Mortgage Note that appears to be regular on its face; (b) the absence from the Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage that appears to be regular on its face, unless there is included in the Mortgage File either a copy of the Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon or a copy of the Mortgage and a certificate from the related Mortgage Loan Seller stating that the original signed Mortgage was sent for recordation; (c) the absence from the Mortgage File of the item called for by clause (viii) of the definition of “Mortgage File”; (d) the absence from the Mortgage File of any intervening assignments required to create a complete chain of assignments to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, unless there is included in the Mortgage File either a copy of the assignment with evidence of recording thereon or a copy of the intervening assignment and a certificate from the related Mortgage Loan Seller stating that the original intervening assignments were sent for filing or recordation, as applicable; (e) the absence from the Mortgage File of any required letter of credit (except as permitted under Section 2.01(b)); or (f) with respect to any related leasehold Mortgage Loan, the absence from the related Mortgage File of a copy (or an original, if available) of the related Ground Lease; provided, however, that no Defect (except the Defects previously described in subclauses (a) through (f) of this Section 2.03(c)) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect the value of the related Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trustee or Certificateholders unless the document with respect to which the Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the mortgagee’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the related Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation; provided, further, that no Defect relating to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan previously described in subclauses (b) through (f) of this Section 2.03(c) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect the value of such Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trustee or Certificateholders unless the related Mortgage Loan Seller, after receipt of notice of such Defect, fails to produce a copy of the document with respect to which the Defect exists within a reasonable period after receiving such notice or otherwise establish that the original or copy, as applicable, of such document has been delivered, in compliance with the terms of the related Non-Serviced PSA, to the custodian under the related Non-Serviced PSA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delivery of executed escrow instructions or a binding commitment to issue a lender’s title Insurance Policy, as provided in clause (viii) of the definition of “Mortgage File” herein, in lieu of the delivery of the actual policy of lender’s title insurance, shall not be considered a Material Defect with respect to any Mortgage File if such actual policy is delivered to the Custodian not later than eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a Mortgage Loan Seller has otherwise complied with its document delivery requirements under this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, in the event that the Custodian

-139-

has acknowledged receipt pursuant to Section 2.01(i) above of a document that is part of the Mortgage File or a Mortgage Loan Seller can otherwise prove delivery of the document, and the Custodian subsequently loses a document, the fact that such document is lost may not be utilized as the basis for a claim of a Material Defect against a Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to Section 5 of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and/or this Section 2.03 and the Custodian shall be liable for any such loss to the extent provided for in Section 8.01 hereof.

(d)               In connection with any repurchase of, or substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a Mortgage Loan contemplated by this Section 2.03, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, upon delivery to each of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer of a trust receipt executed by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File and other documents pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by each of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer (other than attorney-client communications that are privileged communications), and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File that was endorsed or assigned to the Trustee shall be endorsed or assigned, as the case may be, to the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or Additional Repurchase Obligor in the same manner as provided in Section 5 or Section 19, as applicable, of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and, if applicable, the definition of “Mortgage File” herein, so as to vest in such Mortgage Loan Seller the legal and beneficial ownership of such repurchased or substituted Mortgage Loan (including property acquired in respect thereof and proceeds of any Insurance Policy with respect thereto) and the related Mortgage Loan documents.

(e)               Section 5 of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements provides the sole remedy available to the Certificateholders (subject to the limitations on the rights of the Certificateholders under this Agreement), or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer with respect to any Material Defect; provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way limit the ability of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee to take any action against BCHI, Société Générale or FBRT, in each case, to the extent provided for pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 19 thereof.

(f)                The Enforcing Servicer shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), enforce the obligations of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, if any, shall be carried out in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Any costs incurred by the Enforcing Servicer with respect to the enforcement of the obligations of the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall, to the extent not recovered from the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, be deemed to be Servicing Advances to the extent not otherwise provided for herein. The Enforcing Servicer shall be reimbursed for the reasonable costs of such enforcement: first, from a specific recovery, if any, of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller; second, pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vii) herein out of the related Purchase Price, to the extent that such expenses are a specific component thereof; and third, if at the conclusion of such enforcement action it is determined that the

-140-

amounts described in clauses first and second are insufficient, then pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(viii) herein out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Collection Account. Any costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees related to a repurchase of a Companion Loan shall be paid pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement or pursuant to the documents related to an Other Securitization, if applicable.

(g)               If a Mortgage Loan Seller incurs any expense in connection with the curing of a Breach that constitutes a Material Defect, which also constitutes a default under the related Mortgage Loan and is reimbursable thereunder, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall have a right, and shall be subrogated to the rights of the Trustee and the Trust under the Mortgage Loan to recover the amount of such expenses from the related Mortgagor; provided, however, that such Mortgage Loan Seller’s rights pursuant to this Section 2.03(g) shall be junior, subject and subordinate to the rights of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to recover amounts owed by the related Mortgagor under the terms of such Mortgage Loan including, without limitation, the rights to recover unreimbursed Advances, accrued and unpaid interest on Advances at the Reimbursement Rate, fees owed to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, and unpaid or unreimbursed expenses of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Trust, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer allocable to such Mortgage Loan. The Enforcing Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to recover such expenses for such Mortgage Loan Seller to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, but taking into account the subordinate nature of the reimbursement to the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, however, that the Enforcing Servicer determines in the exercise of its sole discretion consistent with the Servicing Standard that such actions by it will not impair the Enforcing Servicer’s collection or recovery of principal, interest and other sums due with respect to the related Mortgage Loan that would otherwise be payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Certificateholders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, further, that the Master Servicer or, with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer, may waive the collection of amounts due on behalf of such Mortgage Loan Seller in its sole discretion in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

(h)               If (i) any Crossed Underlying Loan is required to be repurchased or substituted for in the manner described in this Section 2.03 and (ii) the applicable Material Defect does not constitute a Material Defect as to any other Crossed Underlying Loan in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Material Defect shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to any other Crossed Underlying Loan in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group for purposes of this paragraph, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller will be required to repurchase or substitute for such other Crossed Underlying Loan(s) in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group as provided in Section 2.03(b) unless such other Crossed Underlying Loans satisfy the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria. In the event that the remaining Crossed Underlying Loans in such Crossed Mortgage Loan Group satisfy the aforementioned criteria, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller may elect either to repurchase or substitute for only the affected Crossed Underlying Loan(s) as to which the related Material Defect exists or to repurchase or substitute for all of the Crossed Underlying Loans in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group; provided that if the Crossed Underlying Loan(s) are Joint Mortgage Loans, no Mortgage Loan Seller with an obligation to repurchase or substitute will be permitted to substitute rather than repurchase the

-141-

affected Crossed Underlying Loan(s) unless each other Mortgage Loan Seller with an obligation to repurchase or substitute elects to purchase. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing the Crossed Underlying Loans shall be allocated among the related Crossed Underlying Loans in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. Except as provided in this Section 2.03(h) and Section 2.03(i), all other terms of the related Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect without any modification thereof.

(i)                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the related Mortgage provides for the partial release of one or more of the Crossed Underlying Loans, the Depositor may cause the related Mortgage Loan Seller to repurchase only that Crossed Underlying Loan required to be repurchased pursuant to this Section 2.03, pursuant to the partial release provisions of the related Mortgage; provided, however, that (i) the remaining related Crossed Underlying Loan(s) fully comply with the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage, this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including the Crossed Underlying Loan Repurchase Criteria, (ii) in connection with such partial release, the related Mortgage Loan Seller obtains an Opinion of Counsel (at such Mortgage Loan Seller’s expense) to the effect that the contemplated action will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event and (iii) in connection with such partial release, the related Mortgage Loan Seller delivers or causes to be delivered to the Custodian original modifications to the Mortgage prepared and executed in connection with such partial release.

(j)                 With respect to any Crossed Underlying Loan, to the extent that the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller is required to repurchase or substitute for such Crossed Underlying Loan in the manner prescribed in Section 2.03(h) while the Trustee continues to hold any other Crossed Underlying Loans in the related Crossed Mortgage Loan Group, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, as assignee of the Depositor, will, as set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each will be permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective related Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loans still held by the Trustee, so long as such exercise does not materially impair the ability of the other party to exercise its remedies against its Primary Collateral. If the exercise of the remedies by one party would materially impair the ability of the other party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Crossed Underlying Loans held by such party, then both parties have agreed in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to forbear from exercising such remedies until the Mortgage Loan documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loan can be modified in a manner that complies with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to remove the threat of material impairment as a result of the exercise of remedies.

(k)               (i)  In the event an Initial Requesting Certificateholder delivers a written request to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor (solely in its capacity as Operating Advisor) that a Mortgage Loan be repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller alleging the existence of a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “Certificateholder Repurchase Request”), such party shall promptly forward that Certificateholder Repurchase Request to the Enforcing Servicer, and the Enforcing Servicer shall

-142-

promptly forward it to the related Mortgage Loan Seller and each other party to this Agreement and take the actions required under Section 2.03(b). Subject to Section 2.03(l), the Enforcing Servicer shall be the Enforcing Party with respect to a Certificateholder Repurchase Request.

(ii)                                   In the event that the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or the Operating Advisor (solely in its capacity as Operating Advisor) obtains knowledge of a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan (without implying any duty of such person to make, or to attempt to make, such a discovery), that party shall deliver prompt written notice of such Material Defect to each other party to this Agreement identifying the applicable Mortgage Loan and setting forth the basis for such allegation (a “PSA Party Repurchase Request” and, either a Certificateholder Repurchase Request or a PSA Party Repurchase Request, the “Repurchase Request”) and the Enforcing Servicer will be required to promptly send the PSA Party Repurchase Request to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. Prior to the occurrence of a Resolution Failure, the Enforcing Servicer shall act as the Enforcing Party and enforce the rights of the Trust against the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to a PSA Party Repurchase Request. If a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a PSA Party Repurchase Request, the provisions described below under Section 2.03(l) shall apply.

(iii)                               In the event the Repurchase Request is not Resolved within 180 days after the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller receives the Repurchase Request (a “Resolution Failure”), then the provisions described in Section 2.03(l) below shall apply. Receipt of the Repurchase Request shall be deemed to occur two (2) Business Days after the Repurchase Request is sent to the related Mortgage Loan Seller. A Resolved Repurchase Request shall not preclude the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer from exercising any of its respective rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and timing otherwise set forth herein, in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or as provided by law.

(l)                 (i)  After a Resolution Failure occurs with respect to a Repurchase Request regarding a Mortgage Loan (whether the Repurchase Request was initiated by an Initial Requesting Certificateholder or by a party to this Agreement), the Enforcing Servicer shall send a notice (a “Proposed Course of Action Notice”) to the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, to the address specified in the Initial Requesting Certificateholder’s Repurchase Request, and to the Certificate Administrator via e-mail to trustadministrationgroup@computershare.com who shall make such notice available to all other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners (by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website) indicating the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request (the “Proposed Course of Action”). Such notice shall include (a) a request to Certificateholders to indicate their agreement with or dissent from such Proposed Course of Action, by clearly marking “agree” or “disagree” to the Proposed Course of Action on such notice within thirty (30) days of the date of such notice and a disclaimer that responses received after such 30-day period will not be taken into consideration, (b) a statement that in the event any Certificateholder disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action, the Enforcing Servicer shall be compelled to follow (either as the Enforcing Party or as the Enforcing Servicer in circumstances where a Certificateholder is acting as the Enforcing Party) the course of action agreed to and/or proposed by the majority of the

-143-

responding Certificateholders that involves referring the matter to mediation or arbitration, as the case may be, (c) a statement that the responding Certificateholders will be required to certify their holdings in connection with such response, (d) a statement that only responses clearly marked “agree” or “disagree” with such Proposed Course of Action will be taken into consideration and (e) instructions for the responding Certificateholders to send their responses to the applicable Enforcing Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. The Certificate Administrator shall, within fifteen (15) Business Days after the expiration of the 30-day response period, tabulate the responses received from the Certificateholders and share the results with the Enforcing Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall only count responses timely received and clearly indicating agreement or dissent with the related Proposed Course of Action and additional verbiage or qualifying language shall not be taken into consideration for purposes of determining whether the related Certificateholder agrees or disagrees with the Proposed Course of Action. The Certificate Administrator shall be under no obligation to answer any questions from the Certificateholders regarding such Proposed Course of Action. For the avoidance of doubt, the Certificate Administrator’s obligations in connection with this Section 2.03(l) shall be limited solely to tabulating the Certificateholders’ responses of “agree” or “disagree” to the Proposed Course of Action, and such obligation shall not be construed to impose any enforcement obligation on the Certificate Administrator. The Enforcing Servicer may conclusively rely (without investigation) on the Certificate Administrator’s tabulation of the majority of the responding Certificateholders. If (a) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the Repurchase Request does not involve pursuing further action to exercise rights against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request and the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner wishes to exercise its right to refer the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration, or (b) the Enforcing Servicer’s intended course of action is to pursue further action to exercise rights against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the Repurchase Request but the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner does not agree with the dispute resolution method selected by the Enforcing Servicer, then the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or such other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner may deliver to the Enforcing Servicer a written notice (a “Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice”) within thirty (30) days from the date the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (the “Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date”) indicating its intent to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation or arbitration. In the event any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice, and the Enforcing Servicer has also received responses from other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners supporting the Enforcing Servicer’s initial Proposed Course of Action indicating a recommendation to undertake mediation or arbitration, such responses shall be considered Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notices supporting the Proposed Course of Action for purposes of determining the course of action approved by the majority of responding Certificateholders.

(ii)                                  If neither the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, nor any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner delivers a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice prior to the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date, no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have the right to refer the Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration, and the Enforcing Servicer shall be the sole party entitled to determine a course of action, including, but not limited to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage

-144-

Loan Seller, subject to any consent or consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to Section 6.08.

For the avoidance of doubt, no party other than the Enforcing Servicer shall be entitled to exercise such rights.

(iii)                                Promptly and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of a Preliminary Dispute Resolution Election Notice from (a) the Initial Requesting Certificateholder, if any, or (b) any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner (each of clauses (a) and (b), a “Requesting Certificateholder”), the Enforcing Servicer shall consult with each Requesting Certificateholder regarding such Requesting Certificateholder’s intention to elect either mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration as the dispute resolution method with respect to the Repurchase Request (the “Dispute Resolution Consultation”) so that such Requesting Certificateholder may consider the views of the Enforcing Servicer as to the claims underlying the Repurchase Request and possible dispute resolution methods, such discussions to occur and be completed no later than ten (10) Business Days following the Dispute Resolution Cut-off Date. The Enforcing Servicer shall be entitled to establish procedures the Enforcing Servicer deems in good faith to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard relating to the timing and extent of such consultations. No later than five (5) Business Days after completion of the Dispute Resolution Consultation, a Requesting Certificateholder may provide a final notice to the Enforcing Servicer indicating its decision to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation or arbitration (“Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice”).

(iv)                              If, following the Dispute Resolution Consultation, no Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then the Enforcing Servicer will continue to act as the Enforcing Party and will remain obligated under this Agreement to determine a course of action, including, but not limited to, enforcing the rights of the Trust with respect to the Repurchase Request and no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration.

(v)                                 If a Requesting Certificateholder timely delivers a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then such Requesting Certificateholder shall become the Enforcing Party and must promptly submit the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration. If there are more than one Requesting Certificateholder that timely deliver a Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice, then such Requesting Certificateholders shall collectively become the Enforcing Party, and the holder or holders of a majority of the Voting Rights among such Requesting Certificateholders shall be entitled to make all decisions relating to such mediation or arbitration. If, however, no Requesting Certificateholder commences arbitration or mediation pursuant to the terms of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after delivery of its Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice to the Enforcing Servicer, then (i) the rights of a Requesting Certificateholder to act as the Enforcing Party shall terminate and no Certificateholder or Certificate Owner shall have any further right to elect to refer the matter to mediation or arbitration, (ii) if the Proposed Course of Action

-145-

Notice indicated that the Enforcing Servicer shall take no further action with respect to the Repurchase Request, then the related Material Defect shall be deemed waived for all purposes under this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that such Material Defect shall not be deemed waived with respect a Requesting Certificateholder, any other Certificateholder or Certificate Owner or the Enforcing Servicer to the extent there is a material change in the facts and circumstances known to such party at the time when the Proposed Course of Action Notice is posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (iii) if the Proposed Course of Action Notice had indicated a course of action other than the course of action under clause (ii), then the Enforcing Servicer shall again become the Enforcing Party and, as such, shall be the sole party entitled to determine a course of action, including, but not limited to, enforcing the Trust’s rights against the related Mortgage Loan Seller.

For the avoidance of doubt, no party other than the Enforcing Servicer shall be entitled to exercise such rights.

(vi)                              Notwithstanding the foregoing, the dispute resolution provisions described above under this Section 2.03(l) shall not apply, and the Enforcing Servicer shall remain the Enforcing Party, if the Enforcing Servicer has commenced litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request, or determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that it is in the best interest of Certificateholders to commence litigation with respect to the Repurchase Request to avoid the running of any applicable statute of limitations.

(vii)                           In the event a Requesting Certificateholder becomes the Enforcing Party, the Enforcing Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, shall remain a party to any proceedings against the related Mortgage Loan Seller as further described below.

(viii)                         For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Depositor, any Mortgage Loan Seller nor any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Directing Certificateholder or any of its Affiliates) shall be entitled to be an Initial Requesting Certificateholder or a Requesting Certificateholder.

(ix)                                Reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses of the Master Servicer for mediation or arbitration, to the extent not agreed to be paid by the Enforcing Party or another party (in the case of mediation) or allocated to the Enforcing Party or another party (in the case of arbitration) shall be reimbursable as a Servicing Advance.

(m)             If the Enforcing Party selects mediation (including nonbinding arbitration), the following provisions shall apply:

(i)                                      The mediation shall be administered by a nationally recognized mediation services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller within 30 days of written notice of the Enforcing Party’s selection of mediation (such provider, the “Mediation Services Provider”) in accordance with published mediation procedures (the “Mediation Rules”) promulgated by the Mediation Services Provider.

(ii)                                   The mediator shall be impartial, an attorney and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in commercial litigation and either commercial real estate finance or

-146-

commercial mortgage-backed securitization matters or other complex commercial transactions and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Mediation Services Provider. Upon being supplied a list of at least ten potential mediators by the Mediation Services Provider, each party will have the right to exercise two peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential mediators in order of preference. The Mediation Services Provider shall select the mediator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii)                                The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct an organizational conference to begin the mediation within ten (10) Business Days of the selection of the mediator and to conclude the mediation within sixty (60) days thereafter.

(iv)                                 The expenses of any mediation shall be allocated among the parties to the mediation, including, if applicable, between the Enforcing Party and Enforcing Servicer, as mutually agreed by the parties as part of the mediation.

(n)                                 If the Enforcing Party selects third-party arbitration, the following provisions will apply:

(i)                                      The arbitration shall be administered by a nationally recognized arbitration services provider selected by the related Mortgage Loan Seller within 30 days of written notice of the Enforcing Party’s selection of arbitration (such provider, the “Arbitration Services Provider”) in accordance with published arbitration procedures (the “Arbitration Rules”) promulgated by the Arbitration Services Provider.

(ii)                                  The arbitrator shall be impartial, an attorney admitted to practice in the State of New York and have at least fifteen (15) years of experience in commercial litigation and either commercial real estate finance or commercial mortgage-backed securitization matters or other complex commercial transactions and who will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the Arbitration Services Provider. Upon being supplied a list of at least ten potential arbitrators by the Arbitration Services Provider, each party will have the right to exercise two peremptory challenges within fourteen (14) days and to rank the remaining potential arbitrators in order of preference. The Arbitration Services Provider will select the arbitrator from the remaining attorneys on the list respecting the preference choices of the parties to the extent possible.

(iii)                                Prior to accepting an appointment, the arbitrator must promptly disclose any circumstances likely to create a reasonable inference of bias or conflict of interest or likely to preclude completion of the hearings within the prescribed time schedule.

(iv)                                After consulting with the parties at an organizational conference held not later than ten (10) Business Days after its appointment, the arbitrator shall devise procedures and deadlines for the arbitration, to the extent not already agreed to by the parties, with the goal of expediting the proceeding and completing the arbitration within 120 days. The arbitrator shall have the authority to schedule, hear, and determine any and all motions, including dispositive and discovery motions, in accordance with the

-147-

Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for non-jury matters (the “Rules”) (including summary judgment and other prehearing and post hearing motions), and shall do so by reasoned decision on the motion of any party to the arbitration.

(v)                                    Notwithstanding whatever other discovery may be available under the Rules, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, each party to the arbitration shall be presumptively limited to the following discovery in the arbitration: (A) the parties shall reasonably and in good faith voluntarily produce to all other parties all documents upon which they intend to rely and all documents they reasonably and in good faith believe to be relevant to the claims or defenses asserted by any of the parties, (B) party witness depositions (excluding Rule 30b-6 witnesses), and (C) expert witness depositions, provided that the arbitrator shall have the ability to grant the parties, or either of them, additional discovery to the extent that the arbitrator determines good cause is shown that such additional discovery is reasonable and necessary.

(vi)                                The arbitrator shall make its final determination no later than thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the hearings and submission of any post-hearing submissions. The arbitrator shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, and may not modify or change those agreements in any way or award remedies not consistent with those agreements. The arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive damages or consequential damages in any arbitration conducted by them. Interest on any monetary award shall bear interest from the date of the Final Dispute Resolution Election Notice at the Prime Rate. In its final determination, the arbitrator shall determine and award the costs of the arbitration (including the fees of the arbitrator, cost of any record or transcript of the arbitration, and administrative fees) and shall award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the parties to the arbitration as determined by the arbitrator in its reasonable discretion. The determination of the arbitrator shall be by a reasoned decision in writing and counterpart copies shall be promptly delivered to the parties. The final determination of the arbitrator shall be final and non-appealable, except for actions to confirm or vacate the determination permitted under federal or state law, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(vii)                            By selecting arbitration, the selecting party is giving up the right to sue in court, including the right to a trial by jury.

(viii)                         No person may bring a putative or certified class action to arbitration.

(o)                                  The following provisions shall apply to both mediation and third-party arbitration:

(i)                                     Any mediation or arbitration shall be held in New York, New York unless another location is agreed by all parties;

(ii)                                   If the dispute involves a matter that cannot effectively be remedied by the payment of damages, or if there be any dispute relating to arbitration or the arbitrators that cannot be resolved promptly by the arbitrators or the Arbitration Services Provider,

-148-

then any party in such instance may during the pendency of the arbitration proceedings seek temporary equitable remedies, pending the final decision of the arbitration panel, solely by application in the Southern District of New York if such court shall have subject matter jurisdiction, or if the Southern District of New York has no jurisdiction, then the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York. The arbitration proceedings shall not be stayed unless so ordered by the court.

(iii)                               The details and/or existence of any Repurchase Request, any informal meetings, mediations or arbitration proceedings conducted under this Section 2.03, including all offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the parties’ attempt to informally resolve any Repurchase Request, shall be confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any mediation, arbitration or litigation, or other proceeding (including any proceeding under this Section 2.03). Such information shall be kept strictly confidential and shall not be disclosed or shared with any third party (other than a party’s attorneys, experts, accountants and other agents and representatives, as reasonably required in connection with any resolution procedure under this Section 2.03), except as otherwise required by law, regulatory requirement or court order. If any party to a resolution procedure receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party (other than a governmental regulatory body) for such confidential information, the recipient shall promptly notify the other party to the resolution procedure and shall provide the other party with a reasonable opportunity to object to the production of its confidential information.

(iv)                              In the event a Requesting Certificateholder is the Enforcing Party, the agreement with the arbitrator or mediator, as the case may be, shall be required to contain an acknowledgment that the Trust, or the Enforcing Servicer on its behalf, shall be a party to any arbitration or mediation proceedings solely for the purpose of being the beneficiary of any award in favor of the Enforcing Party; provided that the degree and extent to which the Enforcing Servicer actively prepares for and participates in such proceeding shall be determined by such Enforcing Servicer in consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (provided that no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and subject to the time periods for such consultation set forth in this Agreement), and in accordance with the Servicing Standard. All amounts recovered by the Enforcing Party shall be paid to the Trust, or the Enforcing Servicer on its behalf, and deposited in the Collection Account. The agreement with the arbitrator or mediator, as the case may be, shall provide that in the event a Requesting Certificateholder is allocated any related costs and expenses pursuant to the terms of the arbitrator’s decision or the agreement reached in mediation, neither the Trust nor the Enforcing Servicer acting on its behalf shall be responsible for any such costs and expenses allocated to the Requesting Certificateholder.

(v)                                 In the event a Requesting Certificateholder is the Enforcing Party, the Requesting Certificateholder is required to pay any expenses allocated to the Enforcing Party in the arbitration proceedings or any expenses that the Enforcing Party agrees to bear in the mediation proceedings.

-149-

(vi)                              The Trust (or the Trustee or the Enforcing Servicer, acting on its behalf), the Depositor or any Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted to redact any personally identifiable customer information included in any information provided for purposes of any mediation or arbitration. Each party to the proceedings shall be required to agree to keep confidential the details related to the Repurchase Request and the dispute resolution identified in connection with such procedures; provided, however, that (A) the Certificateholders shall be permitted to communicate prior to the commencement of any such proceedings to the extent provided in Section 5.06, (B) to the extent that the Enforcing Servicer is required under Section 2.02 to provide any 15Ga-1 Notice in connection with such Repurchase Request, the Enforcing Servicer shall be permitted to include in such 15Ga-1 Notice the information required pursuant to Section 2.02 and (C) the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted to disclose information related to the Repurchase Request to the extent necessary to comply with its obligations under Rule 15Ga-1 or Item 1104 of Regulation AB.

(vii)                           For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the exercise of any right of a Requesting Certificateholder to refer a Repurchase Request to mediation or arbitration or participation in such mediation or arbitration affect in any manner the ability of the Enforcing Servicer to perform its obligations with respect to a Mortgage Loan (including without limitation, a liquidation, foreclosure, negotiation of a loan modification or workout, acceptance of a discounted pay-off or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or bankruptcy or other litigation) or the exercise of any rights of a Directing Certificateholder.

(viii)                        Any out-of-pocket expenses required to be borne by or allocated to the Enforcing Servicer in a mediation or arbitration shall be reimbursable as Trust Fund expenses.

(p)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers to repurchase or substitute with respect to a Material Defect with respect to the related Mortgage Loan shall be limited to a repurchase or substitution with respect to the Mortgage Note it sold to the Depositor in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. With respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, any cure by either of the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers with respect to the Mortgage Note sold by it to the Depositor in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that also cures the Material Defect with respect to the entire related Joint Mortgage Loan shall satisfy the cure obligations of both Mortgage Loan Sellers with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan.

Section 2.04        Execution of Certificates; Issuance of Lower-Tier Regular Interests. The Trustee hereby acknowledges the assignment to it of the Mortgage Loans and, subject to Section 2.01 and Section 2.02, the delivery to the Custodian of the Mortgage Files and a fully executed original counterpart of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements, together with the assignment to it of all of the other assets included in the Lower-Tier REMIC. Concurrently with such assignment and delivery, and in exchange for the Mortgage Loans and the other assets comprising the Lower-Tier REMIC, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, (i) the Trustee acknowledges the issuance of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Class LR Interest to the Depositor; (ii)  the Trustee acknowledges the contribution by the Depositor of the

SERVICING OF THE TRUST FUND

Section 3.01        The Master Servicer to Act as Master Servicer; Special Servicer to Act as Special Servicer; Administration of the Mortgage Loans, the Serviced Companion Loans and REO Properties. (a) Each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer shall diligently service and administer the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), any related Serviced Companion Loans and the applicable REO Properties (other than any REO Property related to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) it is obligated (as provided below) to service in accordance with applicable law, this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan documents and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of the Trust and in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, in the case of the Serviced Companion Loans, the Companion Holders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), as a collective whole, taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of such Companion Loans, as applicable (as determined by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, in its reasonable judgment), in accordance with applicable law, the terms of this Agreement (and, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan or any Mortgage Loan with related mezzanine debt, the related Intercreditor Agreement) and the terms of the respective Mortgage Loans and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan(s), taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of the Companion Loan(s), as applicable. With respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, in the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, the related Intercreditor Agreement shall control; provided that in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, take any action or omit to take any action in accordance with the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement that would cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to violate the Servicing Standard or the REMIC Provisions. To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall service the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and the Serviced Companion Loans in accordance with the higher of the following standards of care: (1) in the same manner in which, and with the same care, skill, prudence and diligence with which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, services and administers similar mortgage loans for other third party portfolios and (2) the same care, skill, prudence and diligence with which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, services and administers similar mortgage loans owned by the Master Servicer or the Special

Servicer, as the case may be, with a view to (A) the timely recovery of all payments of principal and interest under the Mortgage Loans or Serviced Whole Loans or (B) in the case of a Specially Serviced Loan or an REO Property, maximization of recovery of principal and interest on a net present value basis on such Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans, and the best interests of the Trust and the Certificateholders (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders constituted a single lender) (and in the case of any Whole Loan, the best interests of the Trust, the Certificateholders and any related Companion Holder (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and the holder or holders of the related Companion Loan(s) constituted a single lender), taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of the related Companion Loan(s), as applicable), as determined by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, in its reasonable judgment, in either case giving due consideration to the customary and usual standards of practice of prudent, institutional commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community mortgage loan servicers, but without regard to any conflict of interest arising from: (i) any relationship that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may have with any Mortgagor or any Affiliate of such Mortgagor, any Mortgage Loan Seller, the originators, any Sponsor, or any other parties to this Agreement; (ii) the ownership of any Certificate, Companion Loan, mezzanine loan, or subordinate debt relating to a Mortgage Loan by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable; (iii) the obligation, if any, of the Master Servicer to make Advances; (iv) the right of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, or any of its Affiliates to receive compensation for its services and reimbursement for its costs hereunder or with respect to any particular transaction; (v) the ownership, servicing or management for others of (a) any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any Non-Serviced Companion Loan or (b) any other mortgage loans, subordinate debt, mezzanine loans or properties not covered by this Agreement or held by the Trust by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, or any of its Affiliates; (vi) any debt that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, or any of its Affiliates, has extended to any Mortgagor or an Affiliate of any Mortgagor (including, without limitation, any mezzanine financing); (vii) any option to purchase any Mortgage Loan or the related Companion Loan(s) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, or any of its Affiliates, may have; and (viii) any obligation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, or any of their respective Affiliates, to repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan as a Mortgage Loan Seller (if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or one of their respective Affiliates is a Mortgage Loan Seller) (the foregoing, collectively referred to as the “Servicing Standard”).

The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall act in accordance with the Servicing Standard with respect to any action required to be taken regarding the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans pursuant to their obligations under this Agreement.

Without limiting the foregoing, subject to Section 3.19, the Special Servicer shall be obligated to service and administer (i) any Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any related Serviced Companion Loans as to which a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred and is continuing (each, a “Specially Serviced Loan”) or as otherwise provided herein with respect to any Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) or any related Serviced Companion Loans as to which a Servicing Transfer Event has not occurred (each, a “Non-Specially Serviced Loan”) in connection with any Major Decision or

-152-

Special Servicer Decision and (ii) any REO Properties (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgaged Properties); provided that the Master Servicer shall continue to receive payments and make all calculations, and prepare, or cause to be prepared, all reports, required hereunder with respect to the Specially Serviced Loans, except for the reports specified herein as prepared by the Special Servicer, as if no Servicing Transfer Event had occurred and with respect to the REO Properties (and the related REO Loans) as if no REO Acquisition had occurred, and to render such services with respect to such Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for herein; provided, further, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be liable for failure to comply with such duties insofar as such failure results from a failure of the Special Servicer to provide sufficient information to the Master Servicer to comply with such duties or failure by the Special Servicer to otherwise comply with its obligations hereunder. The Master Servicer, in its capacity as Master Servicer, shall not have any responsibility for the performance by the Special Servicer, in its capacity as Special Servicer, of its duties under this Agreement. The Special Servicer, in its capacity as Special Servicer, shall not have any responsibility for the performance by the Master Servicer, in its capacity as Master Servicer, of its duties under this Agreement. Each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan that becomes a Specially Serviced Loan shall continue as such until satisfaction of the conditions specified in Section 3.19(a). Without limiting the foregoing, subject to (i) the processing of any Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision (other than the Special Servicer Decisions specified in subclause (i) or (ii) of clause (ix) of the definition of “Special Servicer Decision”) by the Special Servicer or, the processing by the Master Servicer of the Special Servicer Decisions specified in subclause (i) or (ii) of clause (ix) of the definition of “Special Servicer Decision” (but subject to the Special Servicer’s consent), or if mutually agreed to by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, the processing by the Master Servicer of any Major Decision or other Special Servicer Decision, the Master Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) Section 3.19, the Master Servicer shall be obligated to service and administer any Non-Specially Serviced Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan. The Special Servicer shall make the property inspections, use its reasonable efforts to collect the financial statements, budgets, operating statements and rent rolls and forward to the Master Servicer the reports in respect of the related Mortgaged Properties with respect to Specially Serviced Loans in accordance with Section 3.12. After notification to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer may contact the Mortgagor of any Non-Specially Serviced Loan if efforts by the Master Servicer to collect required financial information have been unsuccessful or any other issues remain unresolved. Such contact shall be coordinated through and with the cooperation of the Master Servicer. No provision herein contained shall be construed as an express or implied guarantee by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of the collectability or recoverability of payments on the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loan or be construed to impair or adversely affect any rights or benefits provided by this Agreement to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (including with respect to Servicing Fees, Special Servicing Fees or the right to be reimbursed for Advances and interest accrued thereon). Any provision in this Agreement for any Advance by the Master Servicer or the Trustee is intended solely to provide liquidity for the benefit of the Certificateholders and not as credit support or otherwise to impose on any such Person the risk of loss with respect to one or more of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans. No provision hereof shall be construed to impose liability on the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer for the reason that any recovery to the Certificateholders in

-153-

respect of a Mortgage Loan at any time after a determination of present value recovery is less than the amount reflected in such determination.

(b)               Subject only to the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 6.08) and of the respective Mortgage Loans, any related Serviced Companion Loans and any related Intercreditor Agreement, if applicable, and applicable law, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall have full power and authority, acting alone or, in the case of the Master Servicer, subject to Section 3.20, through one or more Sub-Servicers, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration for which it is responsible which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, in its own name (or in the name of the Trustee and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder), is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders (and, with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder) and the Trustee or any of them, with respect to each Mortgage Loan and any related Serviced Companion Loan (and, if applicable, each REO Property), it is obligated to service under this Agreement: (i) any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by the related Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, and shall, from time to time, execute and/or deliver such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments as necessary to maintain the lien created by the related Mortgage or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral; (ii) subject to Sections 3.08, 3.18 and 6.08, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to, under or with respect to any documents contained in the related Mortgage File; (iii) any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, pledge agreements and other documents in connection with a defeasance, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments; and (iv) any or all complaints or other pleadings to initiate and/or to terminate any action, suit or proceeding on behalf of the Trust (in their representative capacities (except as set forth below in this paragraph). The Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) shall provide to the Mortgagor related to such Mortgage Loans that it is servicing any reports required to be provided to them pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents. Subject to Section 3.10, the Trustee shall (i) within ten (10) Business Days following the Closing Date, furnish to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer original powers of attorney in the form of Exhibit R-1 or Exhibit R-2 attached hereto, as applicable (or such other form as mutually agreed to by the Trustee and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) and (ii) upon request, furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer any powers of attorney in the form of Exhibit R-1 or Exhibit R-2 attached hereto, as applicable (or such other form as mutually agreed to by the Trustee and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable) and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be held responsible or liable for any acts of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, or for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not, without the Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any

-154-

action, suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, representative capacity (unless prohibited by any requirement of the applicable jurisdiction in which any such action, suit or proceeding is brought and if so prohibited, in the manner required by such jurisdiction (provided that the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall then provide five (5) Business Days’ written notice to the Trustee of the initiation of such action, suit or proceeding (or such shorter time period as is reasonably required in the judgment of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, made in accordance with the Servicing Standard) prior to filing such action, suit or proceeding), and shall not be required to obtain the Trustee’s consent or indicate the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s, as applicable, representative capacity)) or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and that actually causes, the Trustee to be required to be registered to do business in any state.

(c)               To the extent the Master Servicer is permitted pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) to exercise its discretion with respect to any action that requires Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall require the costs of such Rating Agency Confirmation to be borne by the related Mortgagor. To the extent the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) require the Mortgagor to bear the costs of any Rating Agency Confirmation or confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall not waive the requirement that such costs and expenses be borne by the related Mortgagor. To the extent that the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or Companion Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) are silent as to who bears the costs of any Rating Agency Confirmation or confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the Mortgagor bear such costs and expenses. The Master Servicer shall not be responsible for the payment of such costs and expenses out of pocket other than as a Servicing Advance.

(d)               The relationship of each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the Trustee under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent.

-155-

(e)               The Master Servicer shall, to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents or any related Companion Loan documents, and consistent with the Servicing Standard, permit Escrow Payments to be invested only in Permitted Investments.

(f)                Within sixty (60) days (or such shorter time period as is required by the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents) after the later of (i) the receipt thereof by the Master Servicer and (ii) the Closing Date, (x) the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall notify each provider of a letter of credit for each Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) identified as having a letter of credit on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, that the Master Servicer (in care of the Trustee, as titled in Section 2.01(b)) for the benefit of the Certificateholders and any related Companion Holders shall be the beneficiary under each such letter of credit and (y) the Master Servicer shall notify each lessor under a Ground Lease for each Mortgage Loan identified as subject to a leasehold interest on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, that the Trust is the leasehold mortgagee, that any notices of default under such Ground Lease that are required to be delivered to the leasehold mortgagee pursuant to the terms of such Ground Lease shall be delivered to the Master Servicer (who shall forward such notices to the Special Servicer) and that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall service the related Mortgage Loan for the benefit of the Certificateholders. If a letter of credit is required to be drawn upon earlier than the date the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller has notified the provider of such letter of credit pursuant to clause (x) of the immediately preceding sentence, such Mortgage Loan Seller shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer in connection with making a draw under such letter of credit. If the Mortgage Loan documents do not require the related Mortgagor to pay any costs and expenses relating to any modifications to or assignment of the related letter of credit, then the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay such costs and expenses as and to the extent required under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. If the Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to pay any costs and expenses relating to any modifications to the related letter of credit, and such Mortgagor fails to pay such costs and expenses after the Master Servicer has exercised reasonable efforts to collect such costs and expenses from such Mortgagor, then the Master Servicer shall give the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller notice of such failure and the amount of costs and expenses, and such Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay such costs and expenses as and to the extent required under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. The costs and expenses of any modifications to Ground Leases shall be paid by the related Mortgagor. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have any liability for the failure of any Mortgage Loan Seller to perform its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

The Master Servicer acknowledges that any letter of credit held by it shall be held in its capacity as Master Servicer of the Trust. If the Master Servicer sells its rights to service the applicable Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall assign the applicable letter of credit (i) to the Trust at the expense of the Master Servicer (which the Master Servicer may recover from the Mortgagor if permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents) or (ii) with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan at the direction of the Special Servicer to such party as the Special Servicer may instruct at the expense of the Trust. Subject to Section 6.04, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (solely with respect to clause (ii) of the prior sentence) shall indemnify the Trust for any loss caused by the ineffectiveness of such assignment as a result of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, negligence.

-156-

(g)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, as applicable) make an Advance with respect to any Companion Loan to the extent the related Serviced Mortgage Loan has been paid in full or is no longer included in the Trust Fund.

(h)               Servicing and administration of each Serviced Companion Loan shall continue hereunder and in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement for so long as the corresponding Serviced Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property is part of the Trust Fund or for such longer period as is contemplated by the related Intercreditor Agreement and as any amounts payable by the related Companion Holder to or for the benefit of the Trust or any party hereto, or payable to the related Companion Holder, in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement remain due and owing.

(i)                 The Special Servicer agrees that upon the occurrence of a Servicing Transfer Event with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, that is subject to or becomes subject to an Intercreditor Agreement in the future, it shall, subject to Section 3.19, use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce, on behalf of the Trust, subject to the Servicing Standard and to the extent the Special Servicer determines such action is in the best interests of the Trust, all rights conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to any such Intercreditor Agreement. The costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with such enforcement shall be paid as a Trust Fund expense or, subject to the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, (i) with respect to any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, pro rata and pari passu, by the Trust and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s), in accordance with the respective Stated Principal Balances of the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s) or (ii) with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, first, by the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan and then, pro rata and pari passu, by the Trust and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (if any), in accordance with the respective Stated Principal Balances of the related Serviced Mortgage Loan and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan(s).

(j)                 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, to the extent required under the related Intercreditor Agreement, the servicing and administration of a Serviced Whole Loan shall continue hereunder (but not with respect to making Advances) even if the related Serviced Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund, until such time as a separate servicing agreement is entered into in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement (it being acknowledged that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be obligated under a separate agreement to which it is not a party); provided that, other than pursuant to Section 6.04 (and, with respect to Section 6.04, solely with respect to claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (including, without limitation, costs and expenses of litigation and of enforcement of such indemnity, and of investigation, counsel fees, damages, judgments and amounts paid in settlement) incurred in connection with a legal claim or action resulting from an action or inaction taken or not taken while the related Serviced Mortgage Loan was part of the Trust Fund), no costs, expenses, losses or fees accruing with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan on and after the date the related Serviced Mortgage Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund shall be payable out of the Trust Fund and the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Advance on or after the date such Serviced Mortgage Loan

-157-

ceases to be part of the Trust Fund; provided, further, however, that if, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loans continue to be included in Other Securitizations, then for so long as a separate servicing agreement (pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement) has not been entered into, the Master Servicer shall inform the related Other Servicer of any need to make Servicing Advances with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan within three (3) Business Days of determining that such an Advance is necessary or being notified that such an Advance is necessary, or in the case of a Servicing Advance that needs to be made on an emergency or urgent basis, within one (1) Business Day. With respect to Servicing Advances made by any Other Servicer as contemplated in the second proviso to the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall, from collections on the related Serviced Whole Loan (but never out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties) received by the Master Servicer, reimburse the Other Servicer for such Servicing Advances in the same manner and on the same level of priority as if such Servicing Advances had been made by the Master Servicer hereunder.

(k)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s authority with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan are limited by and subject to the terms of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and the rights of the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer with respect thereto under the related Non-Serviced PSA. The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standards to enforce the rights of the Trustee (as holder of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and Non-Serviced PSA.

(l)                 The parties hereto acknowledge that each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and further acknowledge that, pursuant to the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement, (i) the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is to be serviced and administered by the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA, and (ii) in the event that (A) the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan is no longer part of the Trust Fund created by the related Non-Serviced PSA and (B) the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust Fund, then, as set forth in the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement, the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall continue to be serviced in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA, until such time as a new servicing agreement has been agreed to by the parties to the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the provisions of such agreement and confirmation has been obtained from the Rating Agencies that such new servicing agreement would not result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then-current ratings of any Class of Certificates then outstanding.

(m)             Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer’s and the Special Servicer’s authority with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan are limited by, and subject to, the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement. The Master Servicer (or, if a Serviced Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer) shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the

-158-

Servicing Standard to obtain the benefits of the rights of the Trust (as holder of the related Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the related Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of the related Intercreditor Agreement shall control.

(n)               Subject to Section 11.15 of this Agreement, in connection with the securitization of any of the Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loans, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer (if such Serviced Companion Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan) and the Trustee, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Serviced Companion Noteholder in attempting to cause the related Mortgagor to provide information relating to such Whole Loan and the related notes, and that such holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, for inclusion in any disclosure document(s) relating to such Other Securitization.

(o)               For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee have any obligation or authority to (a) supervise any related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer, Non-Serviced Certificate Administrator or Non-Serviced Trustee or (b) make Servicing Advances with respect to any Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The obligation of the Master Servicer to provide information and collections and make P&I Advances to the Certificate Administrator for the benefit of the Certificateholders with respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is dependent on its receipt of the corresponding information and/or collections from the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer or Non-Serviced Special Servicer.

(p)               Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit the ability of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to lend money to (to the extent not secured, in whole or in part, by any Mortgaged Property), accept deposits from or otherwise generally engage in any kind of business or dealings with any Mortgagor as though the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer was not a party to this Agreement or to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that this sentence shall not be construed to modify or supersede the Servicing Standard.

(q)               With respect to the Mortgage Loan identified on Exhibit B hereto as “AutoNation”, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall consent to any material amendment or modification of the related Mortgagor’s organizational documents without first obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation.

Section 3.02        Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments. (a)  Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and the Serviced Companion Loans it is obligated to service hereunder, and shall follow such collection procedures as are consistent with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Servicing Standard); provided that the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take action to enforce the Trust’s right to apply excess cash flow to principal in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan documents. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may in its discretion waive any Penalty Charge in connection with any delinquent payment on a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan that it is obligated to service hereunder three (3) times during any period of twenty-four (24) consecutive months with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Master Servicer

-159-

or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may in its discretion waive any Penalty Charge in connection with any delinquent payment on a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan one additional time in such 24-month period so long as with respect to any of the foregoing waivers, no Advance or additional expense of the Trust has been incurred and remains unreimbursed to the Trust with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan. Any additional waivers during such 24-month period with respect to such Mortgage Loan may be made, subject to the Servicing Standard, only after the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, has, prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, given notice of a proposed waiver to the Directing Certificateholder and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder has consented to such additional waiver (provided that if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, fails to receive a response to such notice from the Directing Certificateholder in writing within five (5) days of giving such notice, then the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed to have consented to such proposed waiver); provided, further, that after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, subject to Section 3.11, may waive any Penalty Charge in accordance with the Servicing Standard without the consent of the Directing Certificateholder; provided, further, that the Directing Certificateholder shall have no consent or consultation rights with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the foregoing waivers.

(b)               (i)  All amounts collected by or on behalf of the Trust in respect of a Mortgage Loan shall be applied to amounts due and owing under the Mortgage Loan documents (including for principal and accrued and unpaid interest) in accordance with the express provisions of the Mortgage Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement); provided, however, that absent express provisions in the related Mortgage Loan documents (including any related Intercreditor Agreement) or to the extent otherwise agreed to by the related Mortgagor in connection with a workout of a Mortgage Loan, all amounts collected by or on behalf of the Trust in respect of a Mortgage Loan in the form of payments from the related Mortgagor, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds under the Mortgage Loan (in the case of each Serviced Whole Loan, exclusive of any amounts payable to the holder or holders of the related Companion Loan(s) pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement) shall be applied in the following order of priority:

first, as a recovery of any unreimbursed Advances (including any Workout-Delayed Reimbursement Amount) with respect to such Mortgage Loan and unpaid interest at the Reimbursement Rate on such Advances and, if applicable, unreimbursed and unpaid additional trust fund expenses;

second, as a recovery of Nonrecoverable Advances and any interest on those Nonrecoverable Advances at the Reimbursement Rate, to the extent previously paid or reimbursed from principal collections on such Mortgage Loan (as described in the first proviso in the definition of Principal Distribution Amount);

third, to the extent not previously so allocated pursuant to clause first or second above, as a recovery of accrued and unpaid interest on such Mortgage Loan to the extent of the excess of (i) accrued and unpaid interest (exclusive of Default Interest) on such Mortgage Loan at the related Mortgage Rate in effect from time to time through the end

-160-

twelfth, as a recovery of any remaining principal of such Mortgage Loan to the extent of its entire remaining unpaid principal balance;

provided that to the extent required under the REMIC Provisions, payments or proceeds received (or receivable by exercise of the lender’s rights under the related Mortgage Loan documents) with respect to any partial release of a Mortgaged Property (including in connection with a condemnation) at a time when the LTV Ratio of the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, exceeds 125%, or would exceed 125% following any partial release (based solely on the value of real property and excluding personal property and going concern value, if any, unless otherwise permitted under the applicable REMIC Provisions as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel provided to the Trustee) shall be collected and allocated to reduce the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan in the manner required by the REMIC Provisions; provided, further, that if a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Non-Serviced Companion Loan comprising a Non-Serviced Whole Loan become REO Loans, the treatment of the foregoing amounts with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be subject to the terms of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and Non-Serviced PSA, in that order; provided, further, that with respect to each Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan, amounts collected with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan shall be allocated first pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and then, any amounts allocated to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan shall be subject to application as described above.

ninth, as a recovery of any other amounts then due and owing under such Mortgage Loan other than remaining unpaid principal (if both consent fees and Operating Advisor Consulting Fees are due and owing, first, allocated to consent fees and then, allocated to Operating Advisor Consulting Fees);

provided that if a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any related Non-Serviced Companion Loan comprising a Non-Serviced Whole Loan becomes an REO Loan, the treatment of the foregoing amounts with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be subject to the terms of the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and Non-Serviced PSA, in that order; provided, further, that with respect to each Mortgage Loan related to a Serviced Whole Loan, amounts collected with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan shall be allocated first pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and then, any amounts allocated to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan shall be subject to application as described above.

(iii)                Notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) above, such provisions shall not be deemed to affect the priority of distributions of payments pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. To the extent that such amounts are paid by a party other than a Mortgagor, such amounts shall be deemed to have been paid in respect of a purchase of all or part of the Mortgaged Property (in the case of Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds) and then paid by the Mortgagor under the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan(s), as applicable, in accordance with Section 3.02(b)(ii) above.

(c)               To the extent consistent with the terms of the Mortgage Loans (and, with respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Loan(s), as applicable, and the related Intercreditor Agreement) and applicable law, the Master Servicer shall apply all Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds it receives on a day other than the Due Date to amounts due and owing under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan(s) as if such Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds were received on the Due Date immediately succeeding the month in which Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds were received and otherwise in accordance with Section 3.02(b)(ii) above.

(d)               [RESERVED].

(e)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan or any Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan for which the Mortgagor was required to escrow funds or to post a letter of credit related to obtaining certain performance objectives described in the applicable Mortgage Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, hold such escrows, letters of credit and proceeds thereof as additional collateral and not apply such items to reduce the principal balance of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan(s), unless otherwise required to do so pursuant to the applicable Mortgage Loan documents, applicable law or court order.

(f)                Promptly following the Closing Date, in the case of any Non-Serviced Whole Loan and, with respect to the Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, promptly following receipt

-164-

of notice in connection with the Servicing Shift Date, the Certificate Administrator shall send written notice (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit T) to the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer and the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer (with a copy to any other applicable party set forth on the schedule of addresses to Exhibit T) stating that, as of such date, the Trustee is the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and directing such Non-Serviced Master Servicer to remit to the Master Servicer all amounts payable to, and to forward, deliver or otherwise make available, as the case may be, to the Master Servicer all reports, statements, documents, communications and other information that are to be forwarded, delivered or otherwise made available to, the holder of such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan under the related Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and the related Non-Serviced PSA. The Master Servicer shall, within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds, deposit into the Collection Account all amounts received with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property or any related REO Property.

Section 3.03        Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts. (a)  The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”), into which all Escrow Payments received by it shall be deposited and retained, and shall administer such Servicing Accounts in accordance with the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, the Companion Loan documents. Any Servicing Account related to a Serviced Whole Loan shall be held for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Noteholder collectively, but this shall not be construed to modify respective interests of either noteholder therein as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. Amounts on deposit in Servicing Accounts may only be invested in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and Companion Loan documents, as applicable, or in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.06. Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts to the extent permitted by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents. Withdrawals of amounts so deposited from a Servicing Account may be made only to: (i) effect payment of items for which Escrow Payments were collected and comparable items; (ii) reimburse the Trustee and then the Master Servicer, if applicable, for any Servicing Advances; (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account, if required by applicable law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan and as described below or, if not so required, to the Master Servicer; (v) after the occurrence of an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, apply amounts to the indebtedness under the applicable Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan; (vi) withdraw amounts deposited in error; (vii) pay Penalty Charges to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents; or (viii) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01. As part of its servicing duties, the Master Servicer shall pay or cause to be paid to the related Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing Accounts, to the extent required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall the Master Servicer be required to remit to any Mortgagor any amounts in excess of actual net investment income or funds in the related Servicing Account. If allowed by the related Mortgage Loan documents and applicable law, the Master Servicer may charge the related Mortgagor an administrative fee for maintenance of the Servicing Accounts.

(b)               The Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans (other than any REO Loan succeeding a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other

-165-

related Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and each related Serviced Companion Loan, shall maintain accurate records with respect to each related Mortgaged Property reflecting the status of real estate taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may become a lien thereon and the status of insurance premiums and any ground rents payable in respect thereof. The Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans (other than any REO Loan succeeding a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other related Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each related Serviced Companion Loan, shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such items (including renewal premiums) and shall effect payment thereof from the REO Account or by the Master Servicer as Servicing Advances prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and, in any event, prior to the institution of foreclosure or similar proceedings with respect to the related Mortgaged Property for nonpayment of such items, employing for such purpose Escrow Payments (which shall be so applied by the Master Servicer at the written direction of the Special Servicer in the case of REO Loans) as allowed under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and Companion Loan(s). Other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall service and administer any reserve accounts (including monitoring, maintaining or changing the amounts of required escrows) in accordance with the terms of such Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Companion Loan(s), as applicable, and the Servicing Standard. To the extent that a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Companion Loan, as applicable, does not require a Mortgagor to escrow for the payment of real estate taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, ground rents (if applicable) and similar items, the Special Servicer, in the case of REO Loans, and the Master Servicer, in the case of all other Mortgage Loans or Companion Loans, as applicable, that it is responsible for servicing hereunder, shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to comply with its obligation to make payments in respect of such items at the time they first become due and, in any event, prior to the institution of foreclosure or similar proceedings with respect to the related Mortgaged Property for nonpayment of such items.

(c)               In accordance with the Servicing Standard and for each Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and each Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, the Master Servicer shall advance all such funds as are necessary for the purpose of effecting the payment of (i) real estate taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may become a lien thereon, (ii) ground rents (if applicable) and (iii) premiums on Insurance Policies, in each instance if and to the extent Escrow Payments collected from the related Mortgagor (or related REO Revenues, if applicable) are insufficient to pay such item when due and the related Mortgagor has failed to pay such item on a timely basis, and provided, however, that the particular Advance would not, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance and provided, further, however, that with respect to the payment of taxes and assessments, the Master Servicer shall not be required to make such Advance until the later of (i) five (5) Business Days after the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, has received confirmation that such item has not been paid and (ii) the date prior to the date after which any penalty or interest would accrue in respect of such taxes or assessments. The Special Servicer shall give the Master Servicer and the Trustee no less than five (5) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice before the date on which the Master Servicer is requested to make any Servicing Advance with respect to a given Specially

-166-

Serviced Loan or REO Property; provided, however, that only two (2) Business Days’ written (facsimile or electronic) notice shall be required in respect of Servicing Advances required to be made on an emergency or urgent basis; provided, further, that the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to make such a request (other than for Servicing Advances required to be made on an urgent or emergency basis) more frequently than once per calendar month (although such request may relate to more than one Servicing Advance). The Master Servicer may pay the aggregate amount of such Servicing Advances listed on a monthly request to the Special Servicer, in which case the Special Servicer shall remit such Servicing Advances to the ultimate payees. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Advances; provided that in an urgent or emergency situation requiring the making of a Servicing Advance, the Special Servicer may make a Servicing Advance in its sole discretion. The Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer a request for reimbursement for such Servicing Advance, along with all information and documentation in the Special Servicer’s possession regarding the subject Servicing Advance as the Master Servicer may reasonably request, and the Master Servicer shall be obligated, out of the Master Servicer’s own funds, to reimburse the Special Servicer for any unreimbursed Servicing Advances (other than Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances) made by the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Such reimbursement and any accompanying payment of interest shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the written request therefor pursuant to the preceding sentence by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Special Servicer. Upon the Master Servicer’s reimbursement to the Special Servicer of any Servicing Advance and payment to the Special Servicer of interest thereon, all in accordance with this Section 3.03, the Master Servicer shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to have made such Servicing Advance at the same time as the Special Servicer actually made such Servicing Advance, and accordingly, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such Servicing Advance, together with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate, at the same time, in the same manner and to the same extent as the Master Servicer would otherwise have been entitled if it had actually made such Servicing Advance at the time the Special Servicer did. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.03(c), the Master Servicer shall not be required to reimburse the Special Servicer out of its own funds for, or to make at the direction of the Special Servicer, any Servicing Advance if the Master Servicer determines in its reasonable judgment that such Servicing Advance, although not characterized by the Special Servicer as a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, is in fact a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer in writing of such determination and, if applicable, such Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance shall instead be reimbursed to the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05 of this Agreement.

Any request by the Special Servicer that the Master Servicer make a Servicing Advance shall be deemed to be a determination by the Special Servicer that such requested Servicing Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such determination, provided that the determination shall not be binding on the Master Servicer or Trustee. On the first Business Day after the Determination Date for the related Distribution Date, the Special Servicer shall report to the Master Servicer if the Special Servicer determines any Servicing Advance previously made by the Master Servicer with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such a determination, but such

-167-

determination shall not be binding upon the Master Servicer, and shall in no way limit the ability of the Master Servicer in the absence of such determination to make its own determination that any Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. If the Special Servicer makes a determination that only a portion of, and not all of, any previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall have the right to make its own subsequent determination that any remaining portion of any such previously made or proposed Servicing Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. All such Advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors and further as provided in Section 3.05(a). No costs incurred by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in effecting the payment of real estate taxes, assessments and, if applicable, ground rents on or in respect of the Mortgaged Properties shall, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation, the Certificate Administrator’s calculation of monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balances of the related Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans or related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable, so permit. If the Master Servicer fails to make any required Servicing Advance as and when due (including any applicable cure periods), to the extent the Trustee has actual knowledge of such failure, the Trustee shall make such Servicing Advance pursuant to Section 7.05. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Servicing Advance shall be required hereunder if such Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. In addition, the Master Servicer shall consider Unliquidated Advances in respect of prior Servicing Advances for purposes of nonrecoverability determinations. The Special Servicer shall have no obligation to make any Servicing Advances under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.03(c), the Master Servicer may in its good faith judgment elect (but shall not be required unless directed by the Special Servicer with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and REO Loans) to make a payment from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by a Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) (which shall be deemed first made from amounts distributable as principal and then from all other amounts comprising general collections) to pay for certain expenses set forth below notwithstanding that the Master Servicer (or Special Servicer, as applicable) has determined that a Servicing Advance with respect to such expenditure would be a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance (unless, with respect to Specially Serviced Loans or REO Loans, the Special Servicer has notified the Master Servicer to not make such expenditure), where making such expenditure would prevent (i) the related Mortgaged Property from being uninsured or being sold at a tax sale or (ii) any event that would cause a loss of the priority of the lien of the related Mortgage, or the loss of any security for the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan(s); provided that in each instance, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee) that making such expenditure is in the best interest of the Certificateholders (and, if applicable, the Companion Holders), all as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loans, as applicable). The Master Servicer or Trustee may elect to obtain reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances from the Trust pursuant to the terms of Section 3.17(c). The parties acknowledge that pursuant to the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer is obligated to make servicing advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan. The applicable

-168-

Non-Serviced Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan (with, in each case, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon provided for under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA) in the manner set forth in the applicable Non-Serviced PSA and the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement.

(d)               In connection with its recovery of any Servicing Advance out of the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by the Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) pursuant to Section 3.05(a), the Trustee, the Special Servicer and then the Master Servicer, as the case may be and in that order, shall be entitled to receive, out of any amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of such Servicing Advance from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Subject to Section 3.17(c), the Master Servicer shall reimburse itself, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, for any outstanding Servicing Advance as soon as practically possible after funds available for such purpose are deposited in the Collection Account (or any Companion Distribution Account maintained as a subaccount thereof by the Companion Paying Agent, if applicable) subject to the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s options and rights to defer recovery of such amounts as provided herein; provided, however, that such Master Servicer’s or Trustee’s options and rights to defer recovery of such amounts shall not alter the Master Servicer’s obligation to reimburse the Special Servicer for any outstanding Servicing Advance as provided for in this sentence. To the extent amounts on deposit in the Companion Distribution Account with respect to the related Companion Loan are insufficient for any such reimbursement, the Master Servicer shall use efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to enforce the rights of the holder of the related Mortgage Loan under the related Intercreditor Agreement to obtain any reimbursement available from the holder of the related Companion Loan.

(e)               To the extent an operations and maintenance plan is required to be established and executed pursuant to the terms of a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall request from the Mortgagor written confirmation thereof within a reasonable time after the later of the Closing Date and the date as of which such plan is required to be established or completed. To the extent any repairs, capital improvements, actions or remediations are required to have been taken or completed pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall request from the Mortgagor written confirmation of such actions and remediations within a reasonable time after the later of the Closing Date and the date as of which such action or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed. To the extent a Mortgagor shall fail to promptly respond to any inquiry described in this Section 3.03(e), the Master Servicer shall report any such failure to the Special Servicer within a reasonable time after the date as of which such actions or remediations are required to be or to have been taken or completed.

Section 3.04        The Collection Account, the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Interest Reserve Account and the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account. (a)  The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, a Collection Account in which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited and in no event later than the second Business Day following receipt of properly identified funds (in the case of payments by

-169-

Mortgagors or other collections on the Mortgage Loans or Companion Loans), except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the following payments and collections received or made by or on behalf of it subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans or Companion Loans due and payable on or before the Cut-off Date, which payments shall be delivered promptly to the appropriate Mortgage Loan Seller or its respective designee and other than any amounts received from Mortgagors which are received in connection with the purchase of defeasance collateral), or payments (other than Principal Prepayments) received by it on or prior to the Cut-off Date but allocable to a period subsequent thereto:

(i)                                  all payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments on the Mortgage Loans or principal prepayments on Serviced Companion Loans;

(ii)                               all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans or the Serviced Companion Loans, including Prepayment Premiums, Yield Maintenance Charges and Default Interest;

(iii)                            late payment charges and other Penalty Charges to the extent required to offset interest on Advances and additional expenses of the Trust (other than Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees or Liquidation Fees) as required by Section 3.11(d);

(iv)                            all Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds (other than Gain-on-Sale Proceeds or Non-Serviced Gain-on-Sale Proceeds) received in respect of any Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan or REO Property (other than (A) Liquidation Proceeds that are received in connection with the purchase by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, or the Holders of the Class R Certificates of all the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties in the Trust Fund and that are to be deposited in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account pursuant to Section 9.01 and (B) any proceeds that are received in connection with the purchase, if any, of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan from a securitization by the related Mortgage Loan Seller, which shall be paid directly to the servicer of such securitization) together with any recovery of Unliquidated Advances in respect of the related Mortgage Loans;

(v)                               any amounts required to be transferred from the REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c);

(vi)                            any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.06 in connection with losses incurred with respect to Permitted Investments of funds held in the Collection Account; and

(vii)                         any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.07(b) in connection with losses resulting from a deductible clause in a blanket hazard or master single interest policy.

Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements, the Master Servicer need not deposit into the Collection Account any amount that the Master Servicer would be authorized to withdraw immediately from such account in accordance with the terms of Section 3.05 and shall

-170-

be entitled to instead immediately pay such amount directly to the Person(s) entitled thereto; provided that such amounts shall be applied in accordance with the terms hereof and shall be reported as if deposited in such Collection Account and then withdrawn.

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, actual payments from Mortgagors in the nature of Escrow Payments, charges for beneficiary statements or demands, assumption fees, Modification Fees, extension fees, defeasance fees, amounts collected for Mortgagor checks returned for insufficient funds or other amounts the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer would be entitled to retain as additional servicing compensation need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection Account. If the Master Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Assumption, extension and Modification Fees actually received from Mortgagors on Specially Serviced Loans shall be promptly delivered to the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

Upon receipt of any of the foregoing amounts in clauses (i) through (iv) above with respect to any Specially Serviced Loans, the Special Servicer shall remit within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified and available funds such amounts to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, in accordance with this Section 3.04(a). Any such amounts received by the Special Servicer with respect to an REO Property shall be deposited by the Special Servicer into the REO Account and remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.14(c).

-187-

(ii) no later than the date on which funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the depository institution maintaining such account is the obligor thereon. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any funds held in an Investment Account shall be held in the name of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the Trustee (in its capacity as such) for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

(ii)                               demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment Account.

(b)               Interest and investment income realized on funds deposited in the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date, shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Master Servicer to the extent (with respect to Servicing Accounts) not required to be paid to the related Mortgagor and shall be subject to its withdrawal, or withdrawal at its direction, in accordance with Section 3.03 or Section 3.05(a), as the case may be.

-188-

the sole and exclusive benefit of the Special Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.14(c). In the event that any loss shall be incurred in respect of any Permitted Investment (as to which the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, would have been entitled to any Net Investment Earnings hereunder) directed to be made by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, and on deposit in any of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account, the Servicing Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or the REO Account, the Master Servicer (in the case of the Collection Account, the Companion Distribution Account or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Master Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the REO Account, Loss of Value Reserve Fund or any Servicing Account maintained by or for the Special Servicer) shall deposit therein, no later than the P&I Advance Date, without right of reimbursement, the amount of Net Investment Loss, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to the current Distribution Date; provided that neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to deposit any loss on an investment of funds in an Investment Account if such loss is incurred solely as a result of the insolvency of the federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company that holds such Investment Account, so long as such depository institution or trust company satisfied the qualifications set forth in the definition of Eligible Account at the time such investment was made (and such federal or state chartered depository institution or trust company is not an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, unless such depository institution or trust company satisfied the qualification set forth in the definition of Eligible Account both (x) at the time the investment was made and (y) thirty (30) days prior to such insolvency).

(c)               Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Master Servicer may and, upon the request of Holders of Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights allocated to any Class shall, take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.

Section 3.07        Maintenance of Insurance Policies; Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. (a)  The Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) shall use its efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause each Mortgagor to maintain (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Properties) shall maintain, to the extent required by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents, all insurance coverage as is required under the related Mortgage Loan documents except to the extent that the failure of the related Mortgagor to do so is an Acceptable Insurance Default (and except as provided in the next sentence with respect to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) or if the Trustee does not have an insurable interest. If the Mortgagor does not so maintain such insurance coverage, subject to its recoverability determination with respect to any required Servicing Advance, the Master Servicer (with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan) or the Special Servicer (with respect to REO Properties other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) shall maintain all insurance coverage as are consistent with the Servicing Standard taking into account

the insurance in place at the closing of the Mortgage Loan, but only in the event the Trustee has an insurable interest therein and such insurance is available to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and, if available, can be obtained at commercially reasonable rates, as determined (x)(i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event and (ii) other than (x) with respect to any Excluded Loan, any determination that such insurance coverage is not available or not available at commercially reasonable rates to be made with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder and (y) with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan that is not an Excluded Loan, after consultation by the Special Servicer with the Risk Retention Consultation Party (or, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, with the consent of the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder) except to the extent that the failure of the related Mortgagor to do so is an Acceptable Insurance Default as determined by the Special Servicer; provided, however, that if any Mortgage permits the holder thereof to dictate to the Mortgagor the insurance coverage to be maintained on such Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer or, with respect to REO Property, the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall impose or maintain, as applicable, such insurance requirements as are consistent with the Servicing Standard taking into account the insurance in place at the closing of the Mortgage Loan; provided, further, that, with respect to the immediately preceding proviso, the Master Servicer will be obligated to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the Mortgagor to maintain (or to itself maintain) insurance against property damage resulting from terrorist or similar acts unless the Mortgagor’s failure is an Acceptable Insurance Default as determined by the Special Servicer ((x) (i) unless a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan (with respect to the Directing Certificateholder) with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder, (y) with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan that is not an Excluded Loan, after consultation by the Special Servicer with the Risk Retention Consultation Party or, (z) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder) and only in the event the Trustee has an insurable interest therein and such insurance is available to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and, if available, can be obtained at commercially reasonable rates. The Master Servicer and Special Servicer shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants (at the applicable servicer’s expense) in determining whether any insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates. Subject to Section 3.15(a) and the costs of such insurance being reimbursed or paid to the Special Servicer as provided in the third-to-last sentence of this paragraph, the Special Servicer shall maintain for each REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) no less insurance coverage than was previously required of the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents unless the Special Servicer determines ((x) (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder, (y) with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan that is not an Excluded Loan, after consultation by the Special Servicer with the Risk Retention Consultation Party or, (z) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, as applicable) that such insurance is not available at commercially reasonable rates or that the Trustee does not have an insurable interest, in which case the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination. All Insurance Policies maintained by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall (i) contain a “standard” mortgagee clause, with loss payable to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of

-190-

Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), including any related Serviced Companion Loan, other than REO Properties) or to the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO Properties), (ii) be in the name of the Trustee (in the case of insurance maintained in respect of REO Properties), (iii) include coverage in an amount not less than the lesser of (x) the full replacement cost of the improvements securing the Mortgaged Property or the REO Property, as applicable, and (y) the outstanding principal balance owing on the related Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) or REO Loan, as applicable, and in any event, the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions, (iv) include a replacement cost endorsement providing no deduction for depreciation (unless such endorsement is not permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents), (v) be noncancelable without thirty (30) days prior written notice to the insured party (except in the case of nonpayment, in which case such policy shall not be cancelled without ten (10) days prior notice) and (vi) subject to the first proviso in the second sentence of this Section 3.07(a), be issued by a Qualified Insurer authorized under applicable law to issue such Insurance Policies. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer under any such Insurance Policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property or amounts to be released to the related Mortgagor, in each case in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the provisions of the related Mortgage Loan documents) shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05(a). Any costs incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such Insurance Policies in respect of Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) (other than REO Properties and other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (i) if the Mortgagor defaults on its obligation to do so, shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance (so long as such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance and if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance then such cost shall instead be paid out of the Collection Account) and will be charged to the related Mortgagor and (ii) shall not, for purposes of calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and Serviced Companion Loan(s) (if any), notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan(s) so permit. Any cost incurred by the Special Servicer in maintaining any such Insurance Policies with respect to REO Properties shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c) or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, advanced by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance (so long as such Advance would not be a Nonrecoverable Advance and if such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance then such cost shall instead be paid out of the Collection Account). The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.07 shall apply to any Serviced Whole Loan as if it were a single “Mortgage Loan”. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Master Servicer will not be required to maintain, and will not be in default for failing to obtain, any earthquake or environmental insurance on any Mortgaged Property unless such insurance was required at the time of origination of the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and is currently available at commercially reasonable rates.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that either (x) require the Mortgagor to maintain “all risk” property insurance (and do not expressly permit an exclusion for terrorism) or (y) contain provisions generally requiring the applicable Mortgagor to maintain insurance in types and against such risks as the holder of such Mortgage Loan

-191-

(including any related Serviced Companion Loan) reasonably requires from time to time in order to protect its interests, the Master Servicer shall, consistent with the Servicing Standard, (A) monitor in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether the Insurance Policies for the related Mortgaged Property contain Additional Exclusions (provided, that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon certificates of insurance in determining whether such policies contain Additional Exclusions), (B) request the Mortgagor to either purchase insurance against the risks specified in the Additional Exclusions or provide an explanation as to its reasons for failing to purchase such insurance and (C) if the related Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan, notify the Special Servicer if it has knowledge that any Insurance Policy for a Mortgaged Property contains Additional Exclusions or if it has knowledge (such knowledge to be based upon the Master Servicer’s compliance with the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B) above) that any Mortgagor fails to purchase the insurance requested to be purchased by the Master Servicer pursuant to clause (B) above. In addition, upon the written request of the Risk Retention Consultation Party with respect to any individual triggering event, the Special Servicer shall consult on a non-binding basis pursuant to Section 6.08 with the Risk Retention Consultation Party (provided, that the related Mortgage Loan is not an Excluded Loan as to such party and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the related Mortgage Loan must also be a Specially Serviced Loan) within the same time period as it would obtain consent of, or consult with, the Directing Certificateholder in connection with any such determination by the Special Servicer of an Acceptable Insurance Default. If the Special Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such failure is not an Acceptable Insurance Default, the Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause such insurance to be maintained. The Special Servicer (at the expense of the Trust) shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants in making such determinations. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to rely on insurance consultants (at the expense of such Master Servicer) in determining whether Additional Exclusions exist. Furthermore, the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver such conclusions in writing to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website for those Mortgage Loans that (i) have one of the ten (10) highest outstanding Stated Principal Balances of all of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust or (ii) comprise more than 5% of the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then included in the Trust. During the period that the Special Servicer is evaluating the availability of such insurance or waiting for a response from the Directing Certificateholder, the Risk Retention Consultation Party or the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, as applicable, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be liable for any loss related to its failure to require the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance and will not be in default of its obligations as a result of such failure.

(b)               (i)  The Special Servicer shall maintain (or cause to be maintained), fire and hazard insurance on each REO Property (other than with respect a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), to the extent obtainable at commercially reasonable rates and the Trustee has an insurable interest, in an amount that is at least equal to the lesser of (1) the full replacement cost of the improvements on the REO Property, and (2) the outstanding principal balance owing on the REO Loan, and in any event, the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions. If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer insuring against fire and hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans (including any related Serviced Companion Loan, but excluding any Non-

-192-

Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), as the case may be, required to be serviced and administered hereunder, then, to the extent such Insurance Policy provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause fire and hazard insurance to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties or REO Properties. Such Insurance Policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, if there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a fire and hazard Insurance Policy complying with the requirements of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such Insurance Policy, promptly deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount of such loss or losses that would have been covered under the individual policy but are not covered under the blanket Insurance Policy because of such deductible clause to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan), or in the absence of such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with the Servicing Standard. In connection with its activities as administrator and Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans or any Serviced Companion Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy. The Special Servicer, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, may maintain, earthquake insurance on REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), provided coverage is available at commercially reasonable rates, the cost of which shall be a Servicing Advance.

(ii)               If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by a master single interest or force-placed Insurance Policy with a Qualified Insurer naming the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trustee as the loss payee, then to the extent such Insurance Policy provides protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause such insurance to be maintained on the related Mortgaged Properties and REO Properties. In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall cause any Mortgaged Property or REO Property to be covered by such master single interest or force-placed Insurance Policy, the incremental costs of such insurance applicable to such Mortgaged Property or REO Property (i.e., other than any minimum or standby premium payable for such policy whether or not any Mortgaged Property or REO Property is covered thereby) shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance. Such master single interest or force-placed policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy otherwise complying with the provisions of Section 3.07(a), and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy had it been maintained, deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the master single or force-placed interest policy because of such deductible clause, to the extent that any such deductible exceeds the deductible limitation that pertained to the related Mortgage Loan, including any related Serviced Companion

-193-

Loan, or, in the absence of any such deductible limitation, the deductible limitation which is consistent with the Servicing Standard.

(c)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy with a Qualified Insurer covering losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer’s or employee’s misappropriation of funds or errors or omissions. Such amount of coverage shall be in such form and amount as are consistent with the Servicing Standard. Coverage of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under a policy or bond obtained by an Affiliate of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and providing the coverage required by this Section 3.07(c) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.07(c). The Special Servicer and the Master Servicer shall promptly report in writing to the Trustee any material changes that may occur in their respective fidelity bonds, if any, and/or their respective errors and omissions insurance policies, as the case may be, and shall furnish to the Trustee copies of all binders and policies or certificates evidencing that such bonds, if any, and insurance policies are in full force and effect.

(d)               At the time the Master Servicer determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that any Mortgaged Property (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) is in a federally designated special flood hazard area (and such flood insurance has been made available), the Master Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor (in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the Mortgage Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan documents) to maintain, and, if the related Mortgagor shall default in its obligation to so maintain, shall itself maintain to the extent such insurance is available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to the extent the Trustee, as mortgagee, has an insurable interest therein), flood insurance in respect thereof, but only to the extent the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or related Serviced Companion Loan permits the mortgagee to require such coverage and the maintenance of such coverage is consistent with the Servicing Standard. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan (and any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable), and (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, plus such additional excess flood coverage with respect to the Mortgaged Property, if any, in an amount consistent with the Servicing Standard. If the cost of any insurance described above is not borne by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall promptly make a Servicing Advance for such costs.

(e)               During all such times as any REO Property (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) shall be located in a federally designated special flood hazard area, the Special Servicer shall cause to be maintained, to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates (as determined by the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard), a flood Insurance Policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration in an amount representing coverage not less than the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, plus such additional excess flood coverage with respect to the Mortgaged Property, if any, in an amount consistent with the Servicing Standard. The cost of any such flood insurance with respect to an REO Property shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the

-194-

related REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(c) or, if the amount on deposit therein is insufficient therefor, paid by the Master Servicer to the Special Servicer as a Servicing Advance unless determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, and if determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, then the Master Servicer shall pay the Special Servicer from the Collection Account in accordance with Section 3.05(a)(v).

(f)                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.07, so long as the long-term debt obligations or the deposit account or claims-paying ability of the Master Servicer (or its immediate or remote parent) or the Special Servicer (or its immediate or remote parent), as applicable, is rated at least “A-” by S&P or “A-” by Fitch (if rated by Fitch), the Master Servicer (or its public parent) or the Special Servicer (or its public parent), as applicable, shall be allowed to provide self-insurance with respect to any of its obligations under this Section 3.07.

(g)               Each of the Operating Advisor and Asset Representations Reviewer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement an “errors and omissions” insurance policy with a Qualified Insurer covering losses that may be sustained as a result of an officer’s or employee’s errors or omissions.

Section 3.08        Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements. (a)  As to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-sale” clause, which by its terms:

(i)                                 provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the sale or other transfer of an interest in the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor; or

(ii)                                provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan may not be assumed without the consent of the mortgagee in connection with any such sale or other transfer;

then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall determine, in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard, whether (a) to exercise any right it may have with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon or (y) to withhold its consent to any sale or transfer, consistent with the Servicing Standard or (b) to waive any right to exercise such rights, provided that with respect to such waiver of rights, (i) with respect to all Mortgage Loans other than any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer shall, prior to itself taking such an action, obtain, (A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the prior written consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder, (B) (1) if such Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan or (2) a Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, consult with the Risk Retention Consultation Party if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08 or (C) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating

-195-

Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall have consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) (or, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, to the extent required under the Intercreditor Agreement) (or (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, upon consultation with the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to Section 6.08(a) hereof; provided that in the case of clause (A), clause (B) and clause (C), such consent shall be deemed given or such consultation shall be deemed to have occurred, as applicable, if a response to the request for consent or consultation, as the case may be, is not provided within ten (10) Business Days after receipt (unless earlier objected to by the Directing Certificateholder) of the Special Servicer’s written analysis and recommendation with respect to such waiver together with such other information in the Special Servicer’s possession that is reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder, the Operating Advisor or the Risk Retention Consultation Party (or, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, the prior consent of the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, to the extent required under the Intercreditor Agreement) and (iii) with respect to any Mortgage Loan (x) with a Stated Principal Balance greater than or equal to $35,000,000, (y) with a Stated Principal Balance greater than or equal to 5% of the aggregated Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans then outstanding or (z) together with all other Mortgage Loans with which it is cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted or together with all other Mortgage Loans with the same Mortgagor (or an Affiliate thereof), that is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans outstanding (by Stated Principal Balance), the Special Servicer prior to consenting to any action, shall obtain, a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), provided, however, that with respect to subclauses (y) and (z) of this subclause (iii), such Mortgage Loan shall also have a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000 for such Rating Agency Confirmation requirement to apply. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

With respect to any “due-on-sale” matter described above that is a Major Decision related to any Mortgage Loan that is not an Excluded Loan with respect to the Risk Retention Consultation Party or the holder of the majority of the VRR Interest upon request of the Risk Retention Consultation Party, the Special Servicer shall consult on a non-binding basis with the Risk Retention Consultation Party with respect to (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, Specially Serviced Loans; and (ii) following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, all Mortgage Loans, within the

-196-

same time period as it would obtain the consent of, or consult with, the Directing Certificateholder with respect to such Major Decision.

In connection with any request for a Rating Agency Confirmation from a Rating Agency (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related rating agencies) pursuant to this Section 3.08(a), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that is processing the related action, as applicable, shall (if not already provided in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement) deliver a Review Package to the 17g-5 Information Provider (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related 17g-5 information provider) in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or related Serviced Companion Loan provides that such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan may be assumed or transferred without the consent of the mortgagee, then for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Serviced Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, (i) the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, with respect to all Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and related Serviced Companion Loans involving a Special Servicer Decision or Major Decision, shall determine in accordance with the Servicing Standard whether conditions to a transfer or assumption have been satisfied, or (ii) the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, with respect to any Mortgage Loan if such action is not a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision, shall make such determination with respect to whether such conditions have been satisfied.

(b)               As to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Serviced Companion Loan that contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-encumbrance” clause that by its terms:

(i)                                provides that such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor; or

(ii)                                requires the consent of the mortgagee to the creation of any such additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor or principals of the Mortgagor;

then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan (or related Serviced Companion Loan) is serviced under this Agreement, the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall determine, in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard, whether (a) to exercise any right it may have with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon or (y) to withhold its consent to the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance, consistent with the Servicing Standard or (b) to waive its right to exercise such rights, provided that (i) with respect to such waiver of rights and with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to such party, the Special Servicer has obtained (x) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the prior written consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder and (y) (1) if such Mortgage Loan

-197-

is a Specially Serviced Loan or (2) a Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, consult with the Risk Retention Consultation Party if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08 (or, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, to the extent required under the Intercreditor Agreement), which consent shall be deemed given ten (10) Business Days after receipt by the Directing Certificateholder of the Special Servicer’s written analysis and recommendation with respect to such waiver or exercise of such rights together with such other information in the Special Servicer’s possession that is reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder or the Risk Retention Consultation Party (or, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, to the extent required under the Intercreditor Agreement), and (ii) the Special Servicer has obtained Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) if such Mortgage Loan (A) has an outstanding principal balance that is greater than or equal to 2% of the Stated Principal Balance of the outstanding Mortgage Loans or (B) has an LTV Ratio greater than 85% (including any existing and proposed debt) or (C) has a Debt Service Coverage Ratio less than 1.20x (in each case, determined based upon the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan and related Companion Loan, if any, and the principal amount of the proposed additional lien) or (D) is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans (by Stated Principal Balance) or (E) has a Stated Principal Balance greater than $35,000,000; provided, however, that with respect to subclauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) of this subclause (ii), such Mortgage Loan shall also have a Stated Principal Balance of at least $10,000,000 for such Rating Agency Confirmation requirement to apply. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

With respect to any “due-on-encumbrance” matter described above that is a Major Decision related to any Mortgage Loan that is not an Excluded Loan with respect to the Risk Retention Consultation Party or the holder of the majority of the VRR Interest upon request of the Risk Retention Consultation Party, the Special Servicer shall consult on a non-binding basis with the Risk Retention Consultation Party with respect to (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, Specially Serviced Loans; and (ii) following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, all Mortgage Loans, within the same time period as it would obtain the consent of, or consult with, the Directing Certificateholder with respect to such Major Decision.

In connection with any request for a Rating Agency Confirmation from a Rating Agency (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related rating agencies) pursuant to this Section 3.08(b), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that is

-198-

processing the related action, as applicable, shall (if not already provided in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement) deliver a Review Package to the 17g-5 Information Provider (or, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the related 17g-5 information provider) in accordance with Section 3.25 of this Agreement.

To the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Rating Agency Confirmation described in the immediately preceding paragraph or in Section 3.08(a) shall be an expense of the related Mortgagor; provided that if the Mortgage Loan documents are silent as to who bears the costs of obtaining any such Rating Agency Confirmation, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer that is processing the related action, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to make the related Mortgagor bear such costs and expenses. Unless determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance such costs not collected from the related Mortgagor shall be advanced as a Servicing Advance.

If any Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan provides that such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan may be further encumbered without the consent of the mortgagee, then for so long as such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan is being serviced under this Agreement, (i) the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, with respect to all Mortgage Loans (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) involving a Special Servicer Decision or Major Decision, shall determine whether conditions to further encumbrance have been satisfied (provided that with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan there is no lender discretion with respect to the satisfaction of such conditions), or (ii) the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, with respect to all Non-Specially Serviced Loans if such action is not a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision, shall make such determination with respect to whether such conditions have been satisfied.

Nothing in this Section 3.08 shall constitute a waiver of the Trustee’s right, as the mortgagee of record, to receive notice of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan, any sale or other transfer of the related Mortgaged Property or the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance with respect to such Mortgaged Property.

(c)               Except as otherwise permitted by Section 3.08(a) and (b) and/or Section 3.18, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall agree to modify, waive or amend any term of any Mortgage Loan and related Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, in connection with the taking of, or the failure to take, any action pursuant to this Section 3.08. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide copies of any final waivers (except with respect to provision of any such waivers to the 17g-5 Information Provider, exclusive of any Privileged Information) it effects pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or (b) to each other and to the 17g-5 Information Provider with respect to each Mortgage Loan, and shall notify the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, each other and, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the 17g-5 Information Provider (for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.25) and, with respect to a Whole Loan, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, of any assumption or substitution agreement executed pursuant to Section 3.08(a) or (b) and shall forward thereto a copy of such agreement.

With respect to any Mortgagor request or other action on a Non-Specially Serviced Loan for matters that are Major Decisions or Special Servicer Decisions, the Master

-199-

Servicer shall not agree to such modification, waiver, amendment, consent, request or other action without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer. In connection with such consent, if the Master Servicer is processing such request or action, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide the Special Servicer with written notice of any request for such modification, waiver, amendment, consent, request or other action, along with the Master Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis, and all information in the Master Servicer’s possession that may be reasonably requested in order to grant or withhold such consent by the Special Servicer or the Directing Certificateholder or other Person with consent or consultation rights; provided that in the event that the Special Servicer does not respond within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such written notice and all such reasonably requested information, plus the time period provided to the Directing Certificateholder or other relevant party under this Agreement and, if applicable, any time period provided to a Companion Holder under a related Intercreditor Agreement, the Special Servicer’s consent to such modification, waiver, amendment, consent, request or other action shall be deemed granted.

(d)               [Reserved].

(e)               Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Special Servicer may not waive its rights or grant its consent under any “due-on-sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause relating to any Mortgage Loan without ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the consent of the Directing Certificateholder (or (x) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event and (y) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), but prior to a Consultation Termination Event, upon consultation with the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to Section 6.08 hereof and (iii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, consultation with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a). The Directing Certificateholder shall have ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notice along with the Master Servicer’s (if applicable) and the Special Servicer’s recommendation and analysis with respect to such proposed waiver or proposed granting of consent and any additional information the Directing Certificateholder may reasonably request from the Special Servicer of a proposed waiver or consent under any “due on sale” or “due-on-encumbrance” clause in which to grant or withhold its consent (provided that if the Special Servicer fails to receive a response to such notice from the Directing Certificateholder in writing within such period, then the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed to have consented to such proposed waiver or consent).

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.08, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) makes a determination under Sections 3.08(a) or 3.08(b) hereof that the applicable conditions in the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents, as applicable, with respect to assumptions or encumbrances permitted without the consent of the mortgagee have been satisfied, the applicable assumptions and transfers may be subject to an assumption or other fee, unless such fees are otherwise prohibited pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents; provided that any such fee not provided for in the Mortgage Loan documents does not constitute a “significant” change in yield pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1001-3(e)(2).

Section 3.09        Realization Upon Defaulted Loans and Companion Loans. (a)  Upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan documents related to a Serviced Whole Loan or a Mortgage Loan with mezzanine debt, the Master Servicer shall promptly provide written notice to the related Companion Holder or mezzanine lender, as applicable, with a copy of such notice to the Special Servicer. After a Servicing Transfer Event with respect to such defaulted Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall, subject to subsections (b) through (d) of this Section 3.09, Section 3.24, subject to the Directing Certificateholders’ and the Risk Retention Consultation Party’s rights pursuant to Section 6.08, and any Companion Holder or mezzanine lender’s rights under the related Intercreditor Agreement (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, on behalf of the holders of the beneficial interest of the related Companion Loan) or this Agreement, exercise reasonable efforts, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to, at any time, institute foreclosure proceedings, exercise any power of sale contained in the related Mortgage, obtain a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise acquire title to the related Mortgaged Property or comparably convert (which may include an REO Acquisition) the ownership of property securing any such Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and related Companion Loan, if any, as come into and continue in default as to which no satisfactory arrangements (including by way of a discounted pay-off) can be made for collection of delinquent payments, and which are not released from the Trust Fund pursuant to any other provision hereof. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall not be required to make a Servicing Advance and expend funds toward the restoration of such property unless the Special Servicer has determined in its reasonable discretion that such restoration will increase the net proceeds of liquidation of such Mortgaged Property to Certificateholders after reimbursement to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for such Servicing Advance, and the Master Servicer or Special Servicer has not determined that such Servicing Advance together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The costs and expenses incurred by the Special Servicer in any such proceedings shall be advanced by the Master Servicer; provided that, in each case, such cost or expense would not, if incurred, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. Nothing contained in this Section 3.09 shall be construed so as to require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, to make an offer on any Mortgaged Property at a foreclosure sale or similar proceeding that is in excess of the fair market value of such property, as determined by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in its reasonable judgment taking into account the factors described in Section 3.16(b) and the results of any Appraisal obtained pursuant to the following sentence, all such offers to be made in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard. If and when the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer deems it necessary and prudent for purposes of establishing the fair market value of any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan or any related defaulted Companion Loan, whether for purposes of making an offer at foreclosure or otherwise, the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, is authorized to have an Appraisal performed with respect to such property by an Independent MAI-designated appraiser the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance.

-201-

(b)               The Special Servicer shall not acquire any personal property pursuant to this Section 3.09 unless either:

(i)                                   such personal property is incidental to real property (within the meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Special Servicer; or

(ii)                               the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by the Trust (to the extent not allocable to the related Companion Loan) will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.09 and Section 3.24, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee, obtain title to a Mortgaged Property in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or take any other action with respect to any Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and/or any related Companion Holder, would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of CERCLA or any comparable law, unless (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate to such effect delivered to the Trustee) the Special Servicer has previously determined in accordance with the Servicing Standard, based on an Environmental Assessment of such Mortgaged Property performed by an Independent Person who regularly conducts Environmental Assessments and performed within six (6) months prior to any such acquisition of title or other action, that:

(i)                                   such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, after consultation with an environmental consultant, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Holders constituted a single lender, to take such actions as are necessary to bring such Mortgaged Property in compliance with such laws, and

(ii)                               there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any Hazardous Materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any currently effective federal, state or local law or regulation, or that, if any such Hazardous Materials are present for which such action could be required, after consultation with an environmental consultant, it would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the Companion Holders), as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, Companion Holders constituted a single lender, to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.

The cost of any such Environmental Assessment shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance and the cost of any remedial, corrective or other further action contemplated by clause (i) and/or clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance, unless it is a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance (in which case it shall be an expense of the Trust and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, shall be

-202-

withdrawn in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement by the Master Servicer from the Collection Account, including from the Companion Distribution Account (such withdrawal to be made from amounts on deposit therein that are otherwise payable on or allocable to such Serviced Whole Loan)); and if any such Environmental Assessment so warrants, the Special Servicer shall, except with respect to any Companion Loan and any Environmental Assessment ordered after such Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, perform such additional environmental testing at the expense of the Trust as it deems necessary and prudent to determine whether the conditions described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence have been satisfied. With respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, the Master Servicer and, with respect to Specially Serviced Loans, the Special Servicer (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall review and be familiar with the terms and conditions relating to enforcing claims and shall monitor the dates by which any claim or action must be taken (including delivering any notices to the insurer and using reasonable efforts to perform any actions required under such policy) under each environmental Insurance Policy in effect and obtained on behalf of the mortgagee to receive the maximum proceeds available under such policy for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests).

(d)               If (i) the environmental testing contemplated by subsection (c) above establishes that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of subsection (c) above of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan and, in the case of a Serviced Mortgage Loan, any related Companion Loan, and (ii) there has been no breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in or required to be made pursuant to Section 4 of each of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements for which the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller could be required to repurchase such Defaulted Loan pursuant to Section 5 of the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, then the Special Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust (other than proceeding to acquire title to the Mortgaged Property) and is hereby authorized ((A) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event (or with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an AB Control Appraisal Period, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) and (B) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder and after consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Party at such time as it deems appropriate to release such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, provided that, if such Mortgage Loan has a then-outstanding principal balance of greater than $1,000,000, then prior to the release of the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage, (i) the Special Servicer shall have notified the Rating Agencies, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, ((A) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (B) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder and (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Risk Retention Consultation Party, in writing of its intention to so release such Mortgaged Property and the bases for such intention, (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall have posted such notice of the Special Servicer’s intention to so release such Mortgaged Property to the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) and (iii) in addition to the prior written consent of the Directing Certificateholder as required above, the Holders of Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights shall have consented or have been deemed to have consented to such release within thirty (30) days of the Certificate Administrator’s posting such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website (failure to respond by the end of such 30-day period

-203-

being deemed consent of the Holders of the Certificates). To the extent any fee charged by any Rating Agency in connection with rendering such written confirmation is not paid by the related Mortgagor, such fee is to be an expense of the Trust; provided that the Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such fee from the Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents.

(e)               The Special Servicer shall provide written reports and a copy of any Environmental Assessments in electronic format to the Directing Certificateholder and the Risk Retention Consultation Party (in each case, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Master Servicer and the 17g-5 Information Provider monthly regarding any actions taken by the Special Servicer with respect to any Mortgaged Property securing a Defaulted Loan or defaulted Companion Loan as to which the environmental testing contemplated in subsection (c) above has revealed that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied, in each case until the earlier to occur of satisfaction of both such conditions, repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or release of the lien of the related Mortgage on such Mortgaged Property.

(f)                The Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer of any abandoned and/or foreclosed properties which require reporting to the IRS and shall provide the Master Servicer with all information regarding forgiveness of indebtedness and required to be reported with respect to any Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan that is abandoned or foreclosed and the Master Servicer shall report to the IRS and the related Mortgagor, in the manner required by applicable law, such information and the Master Servicer shall report, via Form 1099A or Form 1099C (or any successor form), all forgiveness of indebtedness and abandonment and foreclosure to the extent such information has been provided to the Master Servicer by the Special Servicer. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such report to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator.

(g)               The Special Servicer shall have the right to determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the advisability of the maintenance of an action to obtain a deficiency judgment if the state in which the Mortgaged Property is located and the terms of the Mortgage Loan (and if applicable, the related Companion Loan) permit such an action.

(h)               The Special Servicer shall maintain accurate records, prepared by one of its Servicing Officers, of each Final Recovery Determination in respect of a Defaulted Loan (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or defaulted Companion Loan or any REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) and the basis thereof. Each Final Recovery Determination shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate promptly delivered to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder and the Risk Retention Consultation Party (in each case, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) and the Master Servicer and in no event later than the next succeeding P&I Advance Determination Date.

Section 3.10        Trustee and Custodian to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files. (a)  Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or the receipt by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master

-204-

Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, will promptly notify the Trustee and the Custodian and request delivery of the related Mortgage File. Any such notice and request shall be in the form of a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer and shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or remitted to the Master Servicer to enable such deposit, have been or will be so deposited. Within seven (7) Business Days (or within such shorter period as release can reasonably be accomplished if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer notifies the Custodian of an exigency) of receipt of such notice and request, the Custodian shall release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided that in the case of the payment in full of a Serviced Companion Loan or its related Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage File shall not be released by the Custodian unless the related Serviced Whole Loan is paid in full. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection Account.

(b)               From time to time as is appropriate for servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (and any related Companion Loan), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Mortgage File or any document therein to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or a designee), as the case may be. Upon return of such Mortgage File or such document to the Custodian, or the delivery to the Trustee and the Custodian of a certificate of a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, stating that such Mortgage Loan (and, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan), was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation which are required to be deposited into the Collection Account (including amounts related to the related Companion Loan, if applicable) pursuant to Section 3.04(a) have been or will be so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the Custodian to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (or a designee), as the case may be, with the original being released upon termination of the Trust.

(c)               Within seven (7) Business Days (or within such shorter period as delivery can reasonably be accomplished if the Special Servicer notifies the Trustee of an exigency) of receipt thereof, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Special Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note (including any note evidencing a related Companion Loan) or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. The Special Servicer shall be responsible for the preparation of all such documents and pleadings. When submitted to the Trustee for signature, such documents or pleadings shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Servicing Officer requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and certifying as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s sale. The Trustee shall not be required to review such documents for their sufficiency or enforceability.

-205-

(d)               If, from time to time, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement and the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, and as appropriate for enforcing the terms of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer requests delivery to it of the original Mortgage Note for a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, then the Custodian shall release or cause the release of such original Mortgage Note to such Non-Serviced Master Servicer or its designee.

Section 3.11        Servicing Compensation. (a)  As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan, Serviced Companion Loan and REO Loan (other than the portion of any REO Loan related to any Non-Serviced Companion Loan) (including Specially Serviced Loans and any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan constituting a “specially serviced loan” under any related Non-Serviced PSA). As to each Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan and REO Loan, the Servicing Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed. The Servicing Fee with respect to any Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, except that if such Mortgage Loan is part of a Serviced Whole Loan and such Serviced Whole Loan continues to be serviced and administered under this Agreement notwithstanding such Liquidation Event, then the applicable Servicing Fee shall continue to accrue and be payable as if such Liquidation Event did not occur. The Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, from payments of interest on each Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan and REO Revenues allocable as interest on each REO Loan, and as otherwise provided by Section 3.05(a). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees in respect of any Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or REO Loan out of that portion of related payments, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and REO Revenues (in the case of an REO Loan) allocable as recoveries of interest, to the extent permitted by Section 3.05(a). Except as set forth in the following sentence, the fourth paragraph of this Section 3.11(a), Section 6.03, Section 6.05 and Section 7.01(c), the right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part (except in connection with a transfer of all of the Master Servicer’s duties and obligations hereunder to a successor servicer in accordance with the terms hereof). With respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, the Servicing Fee shall be payable to the Master Servicer from amounts payable in respect of such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain, and shall not be required to deposit in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a), additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) in the form of the following amounts to the extent collected from the related Mortgagor: (i) 100% of any defeasance fees actually collected during the related Collection Period in connection with the defeasance of a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, if applicable (provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, any such defeasance fee shall not include any Modification Fees in connection with a defeasance with respect to any Major Decisions or Special Servicer Decisions); (ii) (x) 50% of Excess

-206-

Modification Fees actually collected during the related Collection Period related to Non-Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) and paid in connection with a consent, approval or other action that is a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision (in each case, regardless of who processes such consent, approval or other action) and (y) 100% of Excess Modification Fees actually collected during the related Collection Period related to Non-Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) and paid in connection with a consent, approval or other action that does not involve a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision; (iii) (x) 100% of assumption fees, waiver fees, loan service transaction fees, earnout fees and other similar fees collected during the related Collection Period with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) in connection with a consent, approval or other action that does not involve a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision, and (y) 50% of assumption fees, waiver fees, loan-service transaction fees, earnout fees or other similar fees and other similar items collected during the related Collection Period with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) in connection with a consent, approval or other action that is a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision (in each case, regardless of who processes such consent, approval or other action); (iv) 100% of assumption application fees and other similar fees collected during the related Collection Period with respect to Serviced Mortgage Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) for which the Master Servicer is processing the underlying assumption transaction (whether or not consent of the Special Servicer is required); (v) (x) 100% of consent fees on Non-Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) in connection with a consent that does not involve a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision, and (y) 50% of consent fees on Non-Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) in connection with a consent that is a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision (in each case, regardless of who processes such consent, approval or other action); (vi) with respect to accounts held by the Master Servicer, any and all amounts collected for checks returned for insufficient funds on all Mortgage Loans and any Serviced Companion Loan and reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such review fees are not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents, in each case only to the extent actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor and shall not be required to deposit such amounts in the Collection Account or the Companion Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or Section 3.04(b), respectively. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Master Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of: (i) Penalty Charges to the extent provided in Section 3.11(d); (ii) 100% of charges for beneficiary statements or demands actually paid by the related Mortgagors relating to the accounts held by the master servicer pursuant to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan documents; (iii) interest or other income earned on deposits in the Investment Accounts maintained by the Master Servicer, in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to any such Investment Account for each Collection Period and, further, in the case of the Servicing Account, only to the extent such interest or other income is not required to be paid to any Mortgagor under applicable law or under the related Mortgage Loan and (iv) the difference, if positive, between Prepayment Interest Excesses and Prepayment Interest Shortfalls collected on the Mortgage Loans (other than the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans) and any Serviced Companion Loan, during the related Collection Period to the extent not required to be paid as Compensating Interest Payments. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including,

-207-

without limitation, payment of any amounts due and owing to any of its Sub-Servicers and the premiums for any blanket Insurance Policy insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07), if and to the extent such expenses are not payable directly out of the Collection Account and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

With respect to any of the preceding fees as to which both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are entitled to receive a portion thereof (other than a split fee with respect to Penalty Charges), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge or waive only its respective portion of such fee; provided that (A) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have the right to reduce or elect not to charge or waive the portion of any such fee due to the other and (B) to the extent either the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge or waive its respective portion in any such fee, the party that reduced, waived or elected not to charge its respective portion of such fee shall not have any right to share in any part of the other party’s portion of such fee. If the Master Servicer decides not to charge any fee (other than with respect to Penalty Charges), the Special Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Master Servicer had charged a fee and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer may, in connection with a workout or other modification of a Mortgage Loan and without consent of the Master Servicer, waive any or all related Penalty Charges, regardless of who is entitled to receive such payments as compensation.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, KeyBank National Association may, at its option, assign or pledge to any third party or retain for itself the Transferable Servicing Interest with respect to any Mortgage Loan and any Serviced Companion Loan (and any successor REO Loan); provided, however, that in the event of any resignation or termination of KeyBank National Association, as Master Servicer, all or any portion of the Transferable Servicing Interest may be reduced by the Trustee to the extent reasonably necessary (in the sole discretion of the Trustee) for the Trustee to obtain a qualified successor master servicer that meets the requirements of Section 6.05 and who requires market rate servicing compensation that accrues at a per annum rate in excess of the Retained Fee Rate, and any such assignment of the Transferable Servicing Interest shall, by its terms be expressly subject to the terms of this Agreement and such reduction. The Master Servicer shall pay any Transferable Servicing Interest to the holder of such Transferable Servicing Interest at such time and to the extent the Master Servicer is entitled to receive payment of its Servicing Fees hereunder, notwithstanding any resignation or termination of KeyBank National Association as the Master Servicer hereunder (subject to reduction pursuant to the preceding sentence).

(b)               As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to each Specially Serviced Loan and REO Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any REO Loan relating to a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property). As to each Specially Serviced Loan and REO Loan, the Special Servicing Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Special Servicing Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on the Specially

-208-

The Special Servicing Fee with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan shall cease to accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs with respect to the related Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.05(a). The right to receive the Special Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Special Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Special Servicing Fees with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of (i) 100% of all Excess Modification Fees actually collected during the related Collection Period with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan (to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) or any successor REO Loan; (ii) 50% of Excess Modification Fees collected during the related Collection Period with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) in connection with a consent, approval or other action that is a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision (in each case, regardless of who processes such consent, approval or other action); (iii)(x) 100% of assumption fees, waiver fees, loan-service transaction fees, earnout fees and other similar fees collected during the related Collection Period with respect to Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan to the extent not prohibited by the related Intercreditor Agreement) and (y) 50% of assumption fees, waiver fees, loan-service transaction fees and earnout fees and other similar items collected during the related Collection Period with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) in connection with a consent, approval or other action that is a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision (in each case, regardless of who processes such consent, approval or other action); (iv) 100% of assumption application fees and other similar fees collected during the related Collection Period with respect to Mortgage Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable) for which the Special Servicer is processing the underlying assumption transaction; (v)(x) 100% of consent fees on Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) in connection with a consent that involves no modification, waiver or amendment of the terms of any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable), or that are Mortgages Loans that are not Specially Serviced Loans in connection with a consent that involves no modification, waiver or amendment of the terms of any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable) that is a Special Servicer Decision processed by the Special Servicer and (y) 50% of consent fees on Non-Specially Serviced Loans (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) in connection with a consent that involves no modification, waiver or amendment of the terms of any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable) and is paid in connection with a consent that involves a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision (in each case, regardless of who processes such consent, approval or other action); (vi) 100% of charges for beneficiary statements or demands actually paid by the Mortgagors relating to the accounts held by the Special Servicer pursuant to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan documents; (vii) with respect to the accounts held by the Special Servicer, 100% of charges by the Special Servicer collected for checks returned for insufficient funds, and (viii) Penalty Charges paid by the Mortgagors and accrued while the related Mortgage Loans were Specially Serviced Loans to the extent provided in Section 3.11(d) (excluding Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees and Workout Fees).

-209-

Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of interest or other income earned on deposits relating to the Trust Fund in the REO Account and the Loss of Value Reserve Fund in accordance with Section 3.06(b) (but only to the extent of the Net Investment Earnings, if any, with respect to such account for the period from and including the prior Distribution Date to and including the P&I Advance Date related to such Distribution Date). In addition, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to charge any Mortgagor for, and retain as additional servicing compensation (other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), reasonable review fees in connection with any Mortgagor request to the extent such review fees are not prohibited under the related Mortgage Loan documents, and are actually paid by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor. The Special Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation in the form of a Workout Fee equal to the lesser of (i) the amount calculated with respect to each Corrected Loan at the Workout Fee Rate on such Corrected Loan for so long as it remains a Corrected Loan and (ii) $1,000,000 in the aggregate with respect to any particular workout of a Corrected Loan; provided, however, that after receipt by the Special Servicer of Workout Fees with respect to such Corrected Loan in an amount equal to $25,000, any Workout Fees in excess of such amount shall be reduced by the Excess Modification Fee Amount; provided, further, however, that in the event the Workout Fee collected over the course of such workout calculated at the Workout Fee Rate is less than $25,000, then the Special Servicer shall be entitled to an amount from the final payment on the related Corrected Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) that would result in the total Workout Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of that Corrected Loan (including any related Serviced Companion Loan) equal to $25,000. The Workout Fee shall be reduced (but not below zero) pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to each collection on such Corrected Loan from which fee would otherwise be payable until an amount equal to such Excess Modification Fee Amount has been deducted in full. The Workout Fee with respect to any Corrected Loan will cease to be payable if such loan again becomes a Specially Serviced Loan; provided that a new Workout Fee will become payable if and when such Specially Serviced Loan again becomes a Corrected Loan. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any Workout Fee with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. If the Special Servicer is terminated (other than for cause) or resigns, it shall retain the right to receive any and all Workout Fees payable in respect of Mortgage Loans or any related Companion Loan that became Corrected Loans prior to the time of that termination or resignation except the Workout Fees will no longer be payable if the Corrected Loan subsequently becomes a Specially Serviced Loan. If the Special Servicer resigns or is terminated (other than for cause), it will receive any Workout Fees payable on Specially Serviced Loans for which the resigning or terminated Special Servicer had determined to grant a forbearance or cured the event of default through a modification, restructuring or workout negotiated by the Special Servicer and evidenced by a signed writing, but which had not as of the time the Special Servicer resigned or was terminated become a Corrected Loan solely because the Mortgagor had not made three consecutive timely Periodic Payments and which subsequently becomes a Corrected Loan as a result of the Mortgagor making such three consecutive timely Periodic Payments. The successor special servicer shall not be entitled to any portion of such Workout Fees. The Special Servicer shall not be entitled to receive any Workout Fees after termination for cause. A Liquidation Fee shall be payable with respect to each Specially Serviced Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Property (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) as to which the Special Servicer receives any Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds

-210-

subject to the exceptions set forth in the definition of Liquidation Fee (such Liquidation Fee to be paid out of such Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds). If, however, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds are received with respect to any Corrected Loan and the Special Servicer is properly entitled to a Workout Fee, such Workout Fee will be payable based on and out of the portion of such Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds that constitute principal and/or interest on such Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Special Servicer shall only be entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee or a Workout Fee, but not both, with respect to proceeds on any Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Companion Loan, the Liquidation Fee, Workout Fee and Special Servicing Fees, if any, will be computed as provided in the related Intercreditor Agreement or to the extent such Intercreditor Agreement is silent or refers to this Agreement or indicates such fees are paid in accordance with this Agreement, as provided herein as though such Companion Loan were a Mortgage Loan. Subject to Section 3.11(d), the Special Servicer will also be entitled to additional fees in the form of Penalty Charges. The Special Servicer shall be required to pay out of its own funds all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including, without limitation, payment of any amounts, other than management fees in respect of REO Properties, due and owing to any of its Sub-Servicers and the premiums for any blanket Insurance Policy obtained by it insuring against hazard losses pursuant to Section 3.07), if and to the extent such expenses are not expressly payable directly out of the Collection Account or the REO Account, and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

With respect to any of the preceding fees as to which both the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are entitled to receive a portion thereof (other than with respect to Penalty Charges), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have the right in their sole discretion, but not any obligation, to reduce or elect not to charge or waive only its respective portion of such fee; provided that (A) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall have the right to reduce or elect not to charge or waive the portion of any such fee due to the other and (B) to the extent either the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer exercises its right to reduce or elect not to charge or waive only its respective portion in any such fee, the party that reduced, waived or elected not to charge its respective portion of such fee shall not have any right to share in any part of the other party’s portion of such fee.  If the Master Servicer decides not to charge any fee (other than with respect to Penalty Charges), the Special Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Master Servicer had charged a fee and the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to any of such fee charged by the Special Servicer. Similarly, if the Special Servicer decides not to charge any fee (other than with respect to Penalty Charges), the Master Servicer shall nevertheless be entitled to charge its portion of the related fee to which the Master Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had charged a fee and the Special Servicer shall not be entitled to any portion of such fee charged by the Master Servicer.

(d)               In determining the compensation of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to Penalty Charges, on any Distribution Date, the aggregate Penalty Charges collected on any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any related Companion Loan since the prior Distribution Date shall be applied (in such order) to reimburse (i) the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee for interest on

-211-

Advances on such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan, if applicable (and, in connection with a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer, the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer or the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee for interest on the servicing advances made by any such party with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan pursuant to the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement) due on such Distribution Date, (ii) the Trust for all interest on Advances previously paid to the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vi) hereof (and, in connection with a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the related trust for all interest on servicing advances reimbursed by such trust to any party under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA, which resulted in an additional expense for the Trust, to the extent not prohibited by the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement) with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan, if applicable and (iii) the Trust for all additional expenses of the Trust (other than Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees), including without limitation, inspections by the Special Servicer and all unpaid Advances incurred since the Closing Date with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Penalty Charges (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, which shall be payable as additional servicing compensation under the related Non-Serviced PSA) remaining thereafter shall be distributed to the Master Servicer, if and to the extent accrued while such Mortgage Loan and any related Companion Loan was a Non-Specially Serviced Loan, and to the Special Servicer, if and to the extent accrued on such Mortgage Loan during the period such Mortgage Loan was a Specially Serviced Loan or REO Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer may, in connection with a workout or other modification of a Mortgage loan and without the consent of the Master Servicer, waive any or all related Penalty Charges, regardless of who is entitled to receive such payments as compensation; provided that any Penalty Charges actually collected and available as additional servicing compensation after application of the terms in this Section 3.11(d) shall be shared pro rata by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer based on the respective portions of such Penalty Charges to which each would otherwise have been entitled. Any Penalty Charges paid or payable as additional servicing compensation to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be distributed between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, on a pro rata basis, based on the Master Servicer’s and Special Servicer’s respective entitlements to such compensation described in the previous sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Penalty Charges with respect to any Companion Loan will be allocated pursuant to the applicable Intercreditor Agreement after payment of all related Advances and interest thereon and additional expenses of the Trust in accordance with this Section 3.11(d).

If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan prior to the applicable Servicing Shift Date, the Special Servicer shall service and administer such Servicing Shift Whole Loan and any related REO Property in the same manner as any other Specially Serviced Loan or Serviced REO Property and shall be entitled to all rights and compensation earned with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan as the Special Servicer of such Serviced Whole Loan. With respect to a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan, prior to the applicable Servicing Shift Date, no other special servicer shall be entitled to any such compensation or have such rights and obligations. If a Servicing Shift Whole Loan is still a Specially Serviced Loan on the applicable Servicing Shift Date, the Non-Serviced Special Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to compensation with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan as if the Special Servicer were being terminated as the Special Servicer with respect to such Servicing Shift

(g)               Pursuant to the CREFC^® License Agreement, CREFC^® shall be paid (according to the payment instructions set forth on Exhibit JJ hereto or such other payment instructions as CREFC^® may provide to the Master Servicer in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to the P&I Advance Date) the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee on a monthly basis.

Specially Serviced Loan and annually thereafter for so long as such Mortgage Loan remains a Specially Serviced Loan. The cost of such inspection by the Special Servicer pursuant to the second proviso of the immediately preceding sentence shall be an expense of the Trust, and, to the extent not paid by the related Mortgagor, reimbursed first from Penalty Charges actually received from the related Mortgagor and then from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(ii), provided that, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, such cost shall be payable, subject to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement (i) with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, pro rata and pari passu, from the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, in accordance with their respective Stated Principal Balances, or (ii) with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, first, from the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan and then, pro rata and pari passu, from the related Serviced Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (if any), in accordance with the respective Stated Principal Balances of the related Serviced Mortgage Loan and Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (provided that, with respect to any AB Subordinate Companion Loan, the foregoing shall not limit or otherwise modify the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement pursuant to which any amounts collected with respect to the related Whole Loan are allocated to the related Serviced Mortgage Loan and AB Subordinate Companion Loan), in each case, prior to being payable out of general collections.

In preparing the CREFC^® Schedule AL File and any Schedule AL Additional File for any given Distribution Date, and without any due diligence, investigation or verification, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely, absent manifest error, on the content, completeness, accuracy and compliance with any applicable requirements of Items 1111(h) and 1125 of Regulation AB and Item 601(b) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act as in effect on the Closing Date of the Initial Schedule AL File, Initial Schedule AL Additional File and the Annex A-1 to the Prospectus. The Master Servicer may concurrently with the

-217-

delivery of the related CREFC^® Schedule AL File, deliver any related Schedule AL Additional File in EDGAR-Compatible Format to the Certificate Administrator. The CREFC^® Schedule AL File and the Schedule AL Additional File shall each be a single file. Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Master Servicer shall be required to combine multiple CREFC^® Schedule AL Files or Schedule AL Additional Files, unless, solely with respect to the Master Servicer, multiple Sub-Servicers prepare and submit such CREFC^® Schedule AL Files or Schedule AL Additional Files to the Master Servicer. The Certificate Administrator shall not be required to review, redact, reconcile, edit or verify the content, completeness or accuracy of the information contained in any CREFC^® Schedule AL File or any Schedule AL Additional File. The Certificate Administrator shall not be deemed to have actual knowledge of the contents of any CREFC^® Schedule AL File or Schedule AL Additional File solely by its receipt thereof.

In the absence of manifest error, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, without investigation or inquiry, any information and reports delivered to it by any third party, and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the Master Servicer’s reports and the Special Servicer’s reports and any information provided by the Trustee, without any duty or obligation to recompute, verify or recalculate any of the amounts and other information stated therein.

(e)               The Special Servicer shall deliver or make available to the Master Servicer the reports and information required of the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(b) and Section 3.12(c), and the Master Servicer shall deliver or make available to the Certificate Administrator the reports and data files set forth in Section 3.12(d). The Master Servicer may, absent manifest error, conclusively rely on the reports and/or data to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(b) and Section 3.12(c). The Certificate Administrator may, absent manifest error, conclusively rely on the reports and/or data to be provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(d). In the case of information or reports to be furnished by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 3.12(d), to the extent that such information or reports are, in turn, based on information or reports to be provided by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c) and to the extent that such reports are to be prepared and delivered by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c), the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to provide such information or reports to the Certificate Administrator until it has received the requisite information or reports from the Special Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall not be in default hereunder due to a delay in providing the reports required by Section 3.12(d) caused by the Special Servicer’s failure to timely provide any information or report required under Section 3.12(b) or Section 3.12(c) of this Agreement.

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the failure of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by this Section 3.12 shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.12 to the extent the Master Servicer or Special Servicer so fails because such disclosure, in the reasonable belief of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would violate any applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer and Special Servicer may disclose any such information or any additional information to any Person so long as such disclosure is consistent with applicable law and the Servicing Standard. The Master Servicer or the Special

-218-

Servicer may affix to any information provided by it any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto).

(g)               Unless otherwise specifically stated herein, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer is required to deliver or make available any statement, report or information under any provisions of this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may satisfy such obligation by (x) physically delivering a paper copy of such statement, report or information, (y) delivering such statement, report or information in a commonly used electronic format or (z) except with respect to information to be provided to the Directing Certificateholder prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, making such statement, report or information available on the Master Servicer’s Internet website (with respect to items delivered by the Master Servicer) or the Certificate Administrator’s Website, unless this Agreement expressly specifies a particular method of delivery.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall deliver any required statements, reports or other information to the Certificate Administrator in an electronic format mutually agreeable to the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may physically deliver a paper copy of any such statement, report or information as a temporary measure due to system problems, however, copies in electronic format shall follow upon the correction of such system problems.

Section 3.13        Access to Certain Information. (a)  Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall provide or cause to be provided to the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall afford access to any Mortgage Loan Seller and to any Certificateholder that is a federally insured financial institution, the OCC, the FDIC, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America and the supervisory agents and examiners of such boards and such corporations, and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any such Certificateholder, and to each Holder of a Non-Registered Certificate, access to any documentation or information regarding the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is a portion of a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Loan, and the Trust within its control which may be required by applicable law. At the election of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator, such access may be afforded to such Person identified above by the delivery of copies of information as requested by such Person and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator shall be permitted to require payment (other than from the Directing Certificateholder and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator on its own behalf or on behalf of the Certificateholders, as applicable) of a sum sufficient to cover the reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by it in making such copies. Such access shall (except as described in the preceding sentence) be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Certificate Administrator or the Custodian.

The failure of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section 3.13 as a result of a confidentiality obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.13. In connection with providing information pursuant to this

-219-

Section 3.13, the Master Servicer and Special Servicer may each (i) affix a reasonable disclaimer to any information provided by it for which it is not the original source (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto); (ii) affix to any information provided by it a reasonable statement regarding securities law restrictions on such information and/or condition access to information on (x) the execution of a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit X, or (y) execution of a “click-through” confidentiality agreement if such information is being provided through the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s Internet website; (iii) withhold access to confidential information or any intellectual property; and/or (iv) withhold access to items of information contained in the Servicing File for any Mortgage Loan if the disclosure of such items is prohibited by applicable law or the provisions of any related Mortgage Loan documents or would constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the failure of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed by it pursuant to this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement to the extent that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, determines, in its reasonable good faith judgment consistent with the applicable Servicing Standard, that such disclosure would violate applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or Companion Loans or the Mortgaged Properties, constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege on behalf of the Trust or otherwise materially harm the Trust. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer may refrain from disclosing information that it reasonably determines would prejudice the interests of the Certificateholders with respect to a workout or exercise of remedies as to any particular Mortgage Loan.

Notwithstanding the limitation set forth in the next succeeding paragraph, but subject to the last sentence of the immediately preceding paragraph, upon the reasonable request of any Certificateholder (or with respect to any AB Subordinate Companion Loan related to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, the holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Privileged Person identified to the Master Servicer’s reasonable satisfaction, the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) shall provide (or make available electronically) (at the expense of such Certificateholder or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable) copies of any appraisals, operating statements, rent rolls and financial statements (in each case, solely relating to the related Serviced Whole Loan, if requested by the holder of the an AB Subordinate Companion Loan) obtained by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; provided that, in connection therewith, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, may require a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, generally to the effect that such Person is a Holder of Certificates, a beneficial holder of Book-Entry Certificates (or an investment advisor for a Certificateholder or beneficial holder of Book-Entry Certificates) or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan and a Privileged Person and will keep such information confidential and shall use such information only for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Certificateholder or holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, as applicable, may have under the Trust. Upon the request of any Privileged Person (other than the NRSROs) to receive copies of annual operating statements, budgets and rent rolls either collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or caused to be prepared by the Special Servicer in respect of

-220-

each REO Property, the Master Servicer shall deliver or make available electronic copies of such items to the Certificate Administrator to be posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer shall not make any Asset Status Reports available to any Certificateholders on its website. None of the parties to this Agreement shall provide any Asset Status Report or any Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (other than as permitted in the preceding paragraph with respect to any Certificateholder or as specifically provided for herein with respect to the Directing Certificateholder), unless required by applicable law or court order, no Certificateholder (except, with respect to a Mortgage Loan Seller, to the extent necessary for such party to comply with its obligations under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and except for the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, acting in such capacities) or beneficial owner shall be given access to, or be provided copies of, the Mortgage Files or Diligence Files.

-224-

For purposes of obtaining information or access to the Certificate Administrator’s Website, all Excluded Information shall be made available under one separate tab or heading rather than under the headings described above in the preceding paragraph.

The Certificate Administrator shall post on the Certificate Administrator’s Website the items and reports identified in clauses (iii)(A) and (B) above on each Distribution Date. In addition, if the Depositor so directs the Certificate Administrator, and on terms acceptable to the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Administrator shall make certain other information and reports related to the Mortgage Loans available through its Internet website.

The Certificate Administrator shall, in addition to posting the applicable notices on the “U.S. Risk Retention Special Notices” tab described above, provide email notification to any Privileged Person (other than financial market publishers) that has registered to receive access to the Certificate Administrator’s Website that a notice has been posted to the “U.S. Risk Retention Special Notices” tab.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Excluded Information shall be made available under a separate tab or heading designated “Excluded Information” on the Certificate Administrator’s Website (and not under any of the tabs or headings described in items (i) through (vii) above) and made available to Privileged Persons other than any Excluded Controlling Class Holder that is a Borrower Party (unless a loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s)).

Any Person (other than the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder) that is a Borrower Party shall only be entitled to access the Distribution Date Statements and the following items made available to the general public: the Prospectus, this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements and the SEC filings on the Certificate Administrator’s Website.

In the case of the Directing Certificateholder, or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, upon delivery of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B hereto, such Directing Certificateholder, or a Controlling Class Certificateholder shall be entitled to access all information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee may each rely on (i) an Investor

Certification in the form of Exhibit P-1B hereto from the Directing Certificateholder, or a Controlling Class Certificateholder to the effect that such Person is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder and (ii) an Investor Certification in the form of Exhibit P-1D hereto from the Directing Certificateholder, or a Controlling Class Certificateholder to the effect that such Person is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to one or more Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s). In the event the Directing Certificateholder, or a Controlling Class Certificateholder becomes an Excluded Controlling Class Holder, such party shall promptly notify each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1E that such party has become an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to the Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s) listed in such notice and shall also provide the Certificate Administrator a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1F listing each of the CTSLink User ID associated with such Excluded Controlling Class Holder and directing the Certificate Administrator to restrict such Excluded Controlling Class Holder’s access to the Certificate Administrator’s Website as and to the extent provided in this Agreement. Upon confirmation from the Certificate Administrator that such access has been restricted, such Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall submit a new Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1D to access the information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, except that such Excluded Controlling Class Holder shall not be entitled to access any Excluded Information related to any Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s) (unless a loan-by-loan segregation is later performed by the Certificate Administrator in which case such access shall only be prohibited with respect to the related Excluded Controlling Class Loan(s)) made available on the Certificate Administrator’s Website. With respect to any Excluded Information sent for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor shall mark or label such information as “Excluded Information” prior to delivery to the Certificate Administrator, and the Certificate Administrator shall segregate on the Certificate Administrator’s Website such Excluded Information (and, if possible at a later time, on loan-by-loan basis) from information relating to other Mortgage Loans or Whole Loans, as applicable.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively assume that the Directing Certificateholder and all beneficial owners of the Certificates of the Controlling Class are not Excluded Controlling Class Holders except to the extent that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, has received a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1E from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that it has become an Excluded Controlling Class Holder. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator shall be liable for any communication to the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder that is an Excluded Controlling Class Holder or disclosure of any information relating to an Excluded Controlling Class Loan (including any related Excluded Information delivered to the Certificate Administrator for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website) if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, did not receive prior written notice that the related Mortgage Loan is an Excluded Controlling Class Loan and/or, with respect to any related Excluded Information posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, such information was not delivered to the Certificate Administrator in accordance with Section 3.33(a).

-226-

Each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on delivery from the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B that it is not or is no longer an Excluded Controlling Class Holder. To the extent the Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder receives access pursuant to this Agreement to any Excluded Information on the Certificate Administrator’s Website or otherwise receives access to such Excluded Information, such Directing Certificateholder or a Controlling Class Certificateholder shall be deemed to have agreed that it (i) will not directly or indirectly provide any such Excluded Information to (A) the related Borrower Party, (B) any related Excluded Controlling Class Holder, (C) any employees or personnel of such v or any of its Affiliate involved in the management of any investment in the related Borrower Party or the related Mortgaged Property or (D) to its actual knowledge, any non-Affiliate that holds a direct or indirect ownership interest in the related Borrower Party, and (ii) will maintain sufficient internal controls and appropriate policies and procedures in place in order to comply with the obligations described in clause (i) above.

To the extent the Risk Retention Consultation Party receives access pursuant to this Agreement to any information solely related to a Mortgage Loan with respect to which such party is a Borrower Party (which shall include any Asset Status Reports, Final Asset Status Reports (or summaries thereof), inspection reports related to Specially Serviced Loans conducted by the Special Servicer or any Excluded Special Servicer and which may include any Operating Advisor reports delivered to the Certificate Administrator regarding such Special Servicer’s net present value determination or any Appraisal Reduction Amount calculations delivered pursuant to Section 3.26(e), and any Officer’s Certificates delivered by the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, supporting any determination that any Advance was (or, if made, would be) a Nonrecoverable Advance, but in each case other than information with respect to such Mortgage Loan that is aggregated with information of other Mortgage Loans at a pool level), on the Certificate Administrator’s Website or otherwise receives access to such information, the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall be deemed to have agreed that it (i) will not directly or indirectly provide any such information to (A) the related Borrower Party, (B) any employees or personnel of the Risk Retention Consultation Party or any of its Affiliates involved in the management of any investment in the related Borrower Party or the related Mortgaged Property or (C) to its actual knowledge, any non-Affiliate that holds a direct or indirect ownership interest in the related Borrower Party, and (ii) will maintain sufficient internal controls and appropriate policies and procedures in place in order to comply with the obligations described in clause (i) above. For the avoidance of doubt, any file or report contained in the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package (CREFC^® IRP) (other than the CREFC^® Special Servicer Loan File relating to any such Excluded Controlling Class Loan) shall be considered information that is aggregated with information of other Mortgage Loans at a pool level.

Such information will be made available to such third parties upon receipt of a certificate in the form of Exhibit P-3 hereto, which certification may be submitted electronically via the Certificate Administrator’s Website.

(f)                Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may, in accordance with such reasonable rules and procedures as it may adopt, also deliver, produce or otherwise make available, solely with respect to the Master Servicer, through the Master Servicer’s Internet website or, with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, otherwise, any additional information relating to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), any related Serviced Companion Loan, the Mortgaged Properties (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or the related Mortgagors, for review by the Depositor, the Underwriters and any other Persons who deliver an Investor Certification in accordance with this Section 3.13 and the Rating Agencies (collectively, the “Disclosure Parties”) (only to the extent such additional information is simultaneously delivered to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.13(c)), in each case, except to the extent doing so is prohibited by this Agreement (including without limitation, any prohibitions on dissemination of any confidential information,

-231-

including, without limitation, any Privileged Information), applicable law or by the related Mortgage Loan documents. Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to (i) indicate the source of such information and affix thereto any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its discretion and/or (ii) require that the recipient of such information (A) except for the Depositor and the Rating Agencies, enter into (x) an Investor Certification, (y) a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit X or (z) a “click-through” confidentiality agreement if such information is being provided through the Master Servicer’s Internet website, and (B) acknowledge that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may contemporaneously provide such information to any other Disclosure Party. In addition, to the extent access to such information is provided via the Master Servicer’s Internet website, the Master Servicer may require registration and the acceptance of a reasonable and customary disclaimer and/or an additional or alternative agreement as to the confidential nature of such information. In connection with providing access to or copies of the information described in this Section 3.13(f) to current or prospective Certificateholders the form of confidentiality agreement used by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be: (i) in the case of a Certificateholder, an Investor Certification executed by the requesting Person indicating that such Person is a Holder of Certificates and will keep such information confidential (except that such Certificateholder may provide such information (x) to its auditors, legal counsel and regulators and (y) to any other Person that holds or is contemplating the purchase of any Certificate or interest therein (provided that such other Person confirms in writing such ownership interest or prospective ownership interest and agrees to keep such information confidential)); and (ii) in the case of a prospective purchaser of Certificates or interests therein or an investment advisor related thereto, an Investor Certification indicating that such Person is a prospective purchaser of a Certificate or an interest therein or an investment advisor related thereto and is requesting the information for use in evaluating a possible investment in Certificates and will otherwise keep such information confidential with no further dissemination (except that such Certificateholder may provide such information to its auditors, legal counsel and regulators). In the case of a licensed or registered investment advisor acting on behalf of a current or prospective Certificateholder, the Investor Certification shall be executed and delivered by both the investment advisor and such current or prospective Certificateholder.

Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be liable for its dissemination of information in accordance with this Agreement or by others in violation of the terms of this Agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be responsible or have any liability for the completeness or accuracy of the information delivered, produced or otherwise made available pursuant to this Section 3.13 unless such information was produced by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable.

(g)               The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall be permitted (but not obligated) to orally communicate with the Rating Agencies regarding any of the Mortgage Loan documents and any other matter related to the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgaged Properties, the related Mortgagors or any other matters relating to this Agreement or related Intercreditor Agreement; provided that such party summarizes the information provided to the Rating Agencies in such communication in writing and provides the 17g-5 Information Provider with such written summary in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.13(c) the same day such communication takes place; provided, further, that the summary of such oral communications shall not identify which Rating Agency

-232-

the communication was with. The 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such written summary on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.13(c).

(h)               Without limiting the Operating Advisor’s consultation rights pursuant to Section 6.08, the Special Servicer shall provide to the Operating Advisor prior to an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, Final Asset Status Reports and approved or deemed approved Major Decision Reporting Packages (only with respect to any Specially Serviced Loans) and after an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, Asset Status Reports and Major Decision Reporting Packages. In addition, the Special Servicer, subject to the limitations on delivery of Privileged Communications, shall deliver to the Operating Advisor such reports and other information produced by the Special Servicer and otherwise available to the Directing Certificateholder or the Risk Retention Consultation Party (in each case, other than, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, any Asset Status Reports that are not Final Asset Status Reports), or Certificateholders generally, requested by the Operating Advisor in support of the performance of its obligations under this Agreement in electronic format.

(i)                 None of the foregoing restrictions in this Section 3.13 or otherwise in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict oral or written communications, or providing information, between the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Special Servicer, on the one hand, and any Rating Agency or NRSRO, on the other hand, with regard to (i) such Rating Agency’s or NRSRO’s review of the ratings it assigns to the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, (ii) such Rating Agency’s or NRSRO’s approval of the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as a commercial mortgage master, special or primary servicer, or (iii) such Rating Agency’s or NRSRO’s evaluation of the Master Servicer’s, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, servicing operations in general; provided that the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not provide any information relating to the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans, to any Rating Agency or NRSRO in connection with such review and evaluation by such Rating Agency or NRSRO unless (x) Mortgagor, property and other deal specific identifiers are redacted; (y) such information has already been provided to the 17g-5 Information Provider and has been uploaded on to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website; or (z) the Rating Agency confirms in writing that it does not intend to use such information in undertaking credit rating surveillance with respect to the Certificates; provided, however, that the Rating Agencies may use information delivered under this clause (z) for any purpose to the extent it is publicly available (unless the availability results from a breach of this Agreement or any other confidentiality agreement to which such Rating Agency is subject) or comprised of information collected by the applicable Rating Agency from the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website (or another 17g-5 information provider’s website that they have access to) other than pursuant to this Section 3.13(i).

(j)                 The costs and expenses of compliance with this Section 3.13 by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee,

-233-

the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and any other party hereto shall not be additional expenses of the Trust, but shall be borne by the applicable party hereto.

Section 3.14        Title to REO Property; REO Account. (a)  If title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired (directly or through a single member limited liability company established for that purpose) and thus such Mortgaged Property becomes an REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued in the name of the Trust where permitted by applicable law or regulation and consistent with customary servicing procedures, and otherwise, in the name of the Trustee or its nominee on behalf of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, on behalf of the related Companion Holders, in the case of a Serviced Companion Loan. REO Property with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is excluded for all purposes of this Section 3.14. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder, shall sell any REO Property prior to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which the Trust acquires ownership of such REO Property, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.856-6(b)(1), for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code, unless the Special Servicer either (i) applies for a qualifying extension of time no later than sixty (60) days prior to the close of the third calendar year in which it acquired ownership (or the period provided in the then-applicable REMIC Provisions) and such extension is granted or is not denied (an “REO Extension”) by the IRS to sell such REO Property or (ii) obtains for the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such REO Property subsequent to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which acquisition occurred will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur. If the Special Servicer is granted or not denied the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence or obtains the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Special Servicer shall sell such REO Property within such longer period as is permitted by such REO Extension or such Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. Any expense incurred by the Special Servicer in connection with its being granted the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the second preceding sentence or its obtaining the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the second preceding sentence, shall be an expense of the Trust payable out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a).

(b)               The Special Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with any REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets. If an REO Acquisition shall occur, the Special Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more REO Accounts, held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders and, if applicable, on behalf of any related Companion Holder(s), as applicable, as their interest shall appear, and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests), for the retention of revenues and other proceeds derived from each REO Property. The REO Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Special Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the REO Account, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of properly identified and available funds, all REO Revenues, Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds received in respect of an REO Property. Funds in the REO Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 3.06. The Special Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, and the Master Servicer of the location of the REO

-234-

Account when first established and of the new location of the REO Account prior to any change thereof.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall withdraw from the REO Account funds necessary for the proper operation, management, insuring, leasing, maintenance and disposition of any REO Property, but only to the extent of amounts on deposit in the REO Account relating to such REO Property. On the later of the date that is (x) on or prior to the Determination Date (or with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, on the Business Day preceding each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date) or (y) two (2) Business Days after such amounts are received and properly identified and determined to be available, the Special Servicer shall withdraw from the REO Account and remit to the Master Servicer, which shall deposit into the Collection Account (or the Companion Distribution Account, as applicable), the aggregate of all amounts received in respect of each REO Property during the most recently ended Collection Period, net of (i) any withdrawals made out of such amounts pursuant to the preceding sentence and (ii) Net Investment Earnings on amounts on deposit in the REO Account; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may retain in such REO Account, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, such portion of such balance as may be necessary to maintain a reasonable reserve for repairs, replacements, leasing, management and tenant improvements and other related expenses for the related REO Property. In addition, on or prior to the day the Special Servicer remits funds as provided in this Section 3.14(c), the Special Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer with a written accounting of amounts remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, as applicable, on such date. The Master Servicer shall apply all such amounts as instructed by the Special Servicer on the Determination Date (or with respect to a Serviced Companion Loan, on each Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date) for the related Distribution Date.

(d)               The Special Servicer shall keep and maintain separate records, on a property-by-property basis, for the purpose of accounting for all deposits to, and withdrawals from, the REO Account pursuant to Section 3.14(b) or Section 3.14(c).

Section 3.15        Management of REO Property. (a)  If title to any REO Property is acquired, the Special Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect, operate and lease such REO Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property) for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holders, and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) solely for the purpose of its timely disposition and sale in a manner that does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by the Trust or any Serviced Companion Noteholder of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or result in an Adverse REMIC Event. Subject to the foregoing, however, the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority to do any and all things in connection therewith as are in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of each Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder(s)) and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) all as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loans, as applicable) (as determined by the Special Servicer in its reasonable judgment in accordance with the Servicing Standard). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, REO Property with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is excluded for all purposes of this Section 3.15.

-235-

Subject to this Section 3.15, the Special Servicer may allow the Trust or any commercial mortgage securitization that holds any Serviced Companion Loan to earn “net income from foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(d) of the Code if it determines that earning such income is in the best interests of Certificateholders and, if applicable, any related Companion Holder(s) on a net after-tax basis as compared with net leasing such REO Property or operating such REO Property on a different basis. In connection therewith, the Special Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis (and in no event later than two (2) Business Days following receipt of such properly identified and available funds) in the applicable REO Account all revenues received by it with respect to each REO Property and the related REO Loan, and shall withdraw from the REO Account, to the extent of amounts on deposit therein with respect to such REO Property, funds necessary for the proper operation, management, leasing and maintenance of such REO Property, including, without limitation:

(i)                                    all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property;

(ii)                                 all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon;

(iii)                              any ground rents in respect of such REO Property, if applicable; and

(iv)                             all costs and expenses necessary to maintain and lease such REO Property.

To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account in respect of any REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above with respect to such REO Property, the Master Servicer (subject to receiving notice from the Special Servicer in accordance with the procedures set forth elsewhere in this Agreement) shall advance from its own funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes unless (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and (in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, and prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event) the Directing Certificateholder) such Advances would, if made, constitute Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances.

(b)               Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Special Servicer shall not:

(i)                                    permit the Trust to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;

(ii)                                 permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;

(iii)                              authorize or permit any construction on any REO Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than 10% of the construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default on the related Mortgage Loan, became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or

-236-

(iv)                         Directly Operate, or allow any other Person, other than an Independent Contractor, to Directly Operate, any REO Property on any date more than ninety (90) days after its acquisition date;

unless, in any such case, the Special Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance) to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held for the benefit of the Trust, in which case the Special Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.

(c)               The Special Servicer shall contract with any Independent Contractor for the operation and management of any REO Property within ninety (90) days of the acquisition date thereof, provided that:

(i)                                    the terms and conditions of any such contract may not be inconsistent with this Agreement and shall reflect an agreement reached at arm’s length;

(ii)                                 the fees of such Independent Contractor (which shall be an expense of the Trust) shall be reasonable and customary in light of the nature and locality of the Mortgaged Property;

(iii)                              any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor (A) pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property, including, without limitation, those listed in subsection (a) hereof, and (B) remit all related revenues collected (net of its fees and such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer upon receipt;

(iv)                             none of the provisions of this Section 3.15(c) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and obligations hereunder with respect to the operation and management of any such REO Property; and

(v)                                the Special Servicer shall be obligated to manage and supervise such Independent Contractor in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

The Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Special Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(d)               When and as necessary, the Special Servicer shall send to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Master Servicer a statement prepared by the Special Servicer setting forth the amount of net income or net loss, as determined for federal income tax purposes, resulting from the operation and management of a trade or business on, the furnishing or rendering of a non-customary service to the tenants of, or the receipt of any other amount not constituting Rents from Real Property in respect of, any REO Property in accordance with Sections 3.15(a) and 3.15(b).

-237-

Section 3.16        Sale of Defaulted Loans and REO Properties. (a) (i) Within thirty (30) days after a Defaulted Loan has become a Specially Serviced Loan, the Special Servicer shall order (but shall not be required to have received) an Appraisal and within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Appraisal shall determine the fair value of such Defaulted Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard; provided, however, that if the Special Servicer is then in the process of obtaining an Appraisal with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Special Servicer shall make its fair value determination as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any event within thirty (30) days) after its receipt of such an Appraisal. The Special Servicer may, from time to time, adjust its fair value determination based upon changed circumstances, new information and other relevant factors, in each instance in accordance with a review of such circumstances and new information in accordance with the Servicing Standard including, without limitation, the period and amount of the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy; provided that the Special Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer in writing of the initial fair value determination and any adjustment to its fair value determination.

(ii)                                  If any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan subject to an Intercreditor Agreement is a Specially Serviced Loan or to the extent otherwise required pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, then the Special Servicer (with respect to a Specially Serviced Loan) or the Master Servicer (with respect to a Non-Specially Serviced Loan) shall promptly notify in writing the other, any related Companion Holder and any related mezzanine lender, as applicable, of any events requiring notice under the Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof. Thereafter, any related Companion Holder and related mezzanine lender, as applicable, shall, notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, have the option to purchase the related Mortgage Loan and cure defaults relating thereto as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(iii)                               If any Mortgage Loan not subject to an Intercreditor Agreement becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, or if the related Companion Holder or related mezzanine lender, as applicable, for any such Mortgage Loan subject to an Intercreditor Agreement has not previously exercised the option to purchase the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the previous paragraph, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to solicit offers for each Defaulted Loan on behalf of the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Serviced Companion Loan in such manner as will be reasonably likely to maximize the value of the Defaulted Loan on a net present value basis, if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that no satisfactory arrangements (including by way of a discounted pay-off) can be made for collection of delinquent payments thereon and such a sale would be in the best economic interests of the Trust and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder. In the case of the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, under certain limited circumstances permitted under the related Intercreditor Agreement, to the extent that such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is not sold together with the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan by the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer for the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall be entitled to sell ((i) with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder if no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and (ii) after consulting with the Risk Retention Consultation Party, in each case, provided such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan

-238-

is not an Excluded Loan) such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan if it determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that such action would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to a Liquidation Fee to the same extent that the Special Servicer would be entitled to such Liquidation Fee had such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan been a serviced Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicer is required to give the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Risk Retention Consultation Party, and the Directing Certificateholder (in the case of the Directing Certificateholder and any Risk Retention Consultation Party, other than in respect of any Excluded Loan as to such party) not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to sell any Defaulted Loan. In the absence of a cash offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, the Special Servicer may purchase the Defaulted Loan for the Purchase Price (provided that it gives at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to purchase such Defaulted Loan to the Directing Certificateholder and there is no higher offer within such time) or may accept the first cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for the Defaulted Loan.

(iv)                             (A)  In the case of a Defaulted Loan, in the absence of any offer at least equal to the Purchase Price pursuant to clause (iii) above (or purchase by the Special Servicer for such price), the Special Servicer shall solicit offers and, subject to subclause (B) below, may accept the highest offer received from any Person that is determined by the Special Servicer to constitute a fair price for such Defaulted Loan, if the offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person. In determining whether any cash offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any Defaulted Loan, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to this Agreement within the prior 9 months), among other factors, the period and amount of the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. If the offeror is an Interested Person (provided that the Trustee may not be an offeror), the Trustee shall determine whether the cash offer constitutes a fair price; provided that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (x) it is the highest offer received and (y) if the offer is less than the applicable Purchase Price, at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any such Defaulted Loan, the Trustee shall rely on the most recent Appraisal (or update of such Appraisal) of the related Mortgaged Property conducted in accordance with this Agreement within the preceding nine-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. Except as provided in the following paragraph, the cost of any Appraisal will be covered by, and will be reimbursable as, a Servicing Advance by the Master Servicer.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the

-239-

Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all Appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable by, the Interested Person; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee. The Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of request therefor, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person. Neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any Specially Serviced Loan.

(B)              The Special Servicer will not be obligated to accept the highest offer if the Special Servicer determines ((i) with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, in consultation with the Directing Certificateholder (unless a Consultation Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing) and each Risk Retention Consultation Party subject, in each case, to the limitations on consultation set forth in and in accordance with Section 6.08(a) and other than with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is an Excluded Loan as to such party and, (ii) in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder), in accordance with the Servicing Standard (and subject to the requirements of any related Intercreditor Agreement), that the rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Holders of Certificates and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder constituted a single lender (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of such Companion Loan, as the case may be)). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer from any Person other than the Special Servicer or its Affiliate if it determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that the acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Holders of Certificates and, in the case of a sale of a Serviced Whole Loan or an REO Property related to a Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder (as a collective whole, as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Companion Holder constituted a single lender (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of such Companion Loan, as the case may be)) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations, or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable); provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to sell all Defaulted Loans prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall have no obligation to make any fair value determination, to the extent required to do so

-240-

pursuant to this Section 3.16, on the basis of anything other than the related Appraisal.

(v)                                 Unless and until any Specially Serviced Loan is sold pursuant to this Section 3.16(a), the Special Servicer shall pursue such other resolution strategies with respect to such Specially Serviced Loan, including, without limitation, workout and foreclosure, as the Special Servicer may deem appropriate, consistent with the Asset Status Report and the Servicing Standard and the REMIC Provisions.

(b)               (i)  (A)  The Special Servicer may purchase any REO Property at the Purchase Price therefor (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such purchase shall be a purchase of the entire REO Property, including the portion relating to the related Companion Loan). The Special Servicer may also offer to sell to any Person any REO Property (in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, such sale shall be a sale of the entire REO Property, including the portion relating to the related Companion Loan), if and when the Special Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that such a sale would be in the best economic interest of the Trust and the related Companion Holders. The Special Servicer shall give the Trustee, the Master Servicer, each Companion Holder, the Certificate Administrator and, in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to such party and prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder and the Risk Retention Consultation Party, not less than five (5) days’ prior written notice of its intention to (i) purchase any REO Property at the Purchase Price therefor or (ii) sell any REO Property, in which case the Special Servicer shall accept the highest offer received from any Person for any REO Property in an amount at least equal to the Purchase Price therefor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, and subject to the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer, an Affiliate of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or an Affiliate of the Special Servicer, or an employee of either of them may act as broker in connection with the sale of any REO Property and may retain from the proceeds of such sale a brokerage commission that does not exceed the commission that would have been earned by an independent broker pursuant to a brokerage agreement entered into at arm’s length.

(B)              In the absence of any such offer as set forth in subclause (A) above, the Special Servicer shall, subject to subclause (C) below, accept the highest offer for such REO Property received from any Person that is determined to be a fair price (1) by the Special Servicer, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, or (2) by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested Person unless such offer by an Interested Person (i) is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price and (ii) is the highest offer received; provided, however, that absent an offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (A) it is the highest offer received and (B) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of its Affiliates may make an offer for or purchase any REO Property pursuant hereto.

(C)              The Special Servicer shall not be obligated by either of the foregoing paragraphs or otherwise to accept the highest offer if the Special

-241-

Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder, in either case, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Serviced Companion Loans). In addition, the Special Servicer may accept a lower offer if it determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders and, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the related Companion Holder, in either case, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Serviced Companion Loans) (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer is more likely to perform its obligations, or the terms offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are more favorable); provided that the offeror is not the Special Servicer or a Person that is an Affiliate of the Special Servicer.

(D)             In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for any REO Property, the Trustee shall obtain and may conclusively rely on the opinion of an Independent appraiser or other Independent expert in real estate matters retained by the Trustee in connection with making such determination. The reasonable cost of such Independent appraiser or other Independent expert shall be an expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser. The reasonable fees and costs of all Appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person and the Special Servicer shall use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect payment from such Interested Person. If such expense is not paid by the applicable Interested Person within thirty (30) days of demand for payment, such expense shall be reimbursable to the Trustee by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance but the Special Servicer shall continue to use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect such amounts from the applicable Interested Person. In determining whether any offer constitutes a fair price for any REO Property, the Special Servicer or the Trustee (or, if applicable, such appraiser) shall take into account, and any appraiser or other expert in real estate matters shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the physical condition of such REO Property, the state of the local economy and the Trust’s obligation to comply with REMIC Provisions.

(ii)                                 Subject to the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall act on behalf of the Trust and the related Companion Holders, in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or appropriate in connection with the sale of any REO Property, including the collection of all amounts payable in connection therewith. A sale of any REO Property shall be without recourse to, or representation or warranty by, the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Trust (except that any contract of sale and assignment and conveyance documents may contain customary warranties of title, so long as the only recourse for breach thereof is to the Trust) and, if consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, none of the Master

-242-

Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer nor the Trustee shall have any liability to the Trust or any Certificateholder or related Companion Holder (if applicable) with respect to the purchase price therefor accepted by the Special Servicer or the Trustee.

(c)               Any sale of a Defaulted Loan or any REO Property shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC Provisions or authoritative interpretations thereof made or issued subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other consideration).

(d)               With respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan , pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, if the related Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan, and if the Special Servicer determines to sell the related Mortgage Loan that has become a Defaulted Loan in accordance with this Section 3.16, then the Special Servicer shall sell the related Serviced Companion Loan together with such Mortgage Loan as one whole loan and shall require that all offers be submitted to the Special Servicer in writing. With respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall sell the Serviced AB Subordinate Companion Loan along with the related Mortgage Loan and Pari Passu Companion Loans, as applicable, if it determines that a sale of the Serviced AB Whole Loan would maximize recoveries on the Serviced AB Whole Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to a Liquidation Fee for the entire AB Whole Loan. In addition, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to the Serviced AB Whole Loan, the Special Servicer will only be permitted to sell the Serviced AB Whole Loan for less than the Purchase Price with the consent of the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder. To the extent a determination is required to be made hereunder as to whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Serviced Whole Loan, such determination shall be made by the Special Servicer unless the offeror is an Interested Person and by the Trustee if the offeror is an Interested Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Special Servicer will not be permitted to sell the related Mortgage Loan together with the related Serviced Companion Loan(s) if it becomes a defaulted Whole Loan without the written consent of the holder of the related Serviced Companion Loan (provided that such consent is not required if the holder of the Serviced Companion Loan is the Mortgagor or an Affiliate of the Mortgagor) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to the Other Servicer under the applicable Other Securitization, who shall deliver to the related directing certificateholder for the holder of the related Serviced Companion Loan: (a) at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell such Serviced Whole Loan; (b) at least ten (10) days prior to the permitted sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for such Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, and any documents in the servicing file reasonably requested by the holder of the related Serviced Companion Loan that are material to the sale price of such Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors, the Directing Certificateholder and the Risk Retention Consultation Party) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale. The holder of the related Serviced Companion Loan (or its representative) will be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of such Serviced Whole Loan; provided, however, the related Mortgagor and its

-243-

agents and Affiliates shall not be permitted to submit an offer at such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to each Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan, the holder of the related Companion Loan may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this paragraph with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan. If the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the subject Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as the case may be, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party pursuant to this paragraph shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the Interested Person; provided that Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee.

(e)               (i)  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, the holder of the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each applicable Serviced Whole Loan will have the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, as applicable. Such right of the holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan shall be given priority over any provision described in this Section 3.16 as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement. If the related Mortgage Loan or related REO Property is purchased by the holder of such AB Subordinate Companion Loan, repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller or otherwise ceases to be subject to this Agreement, the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan will no longer be subject to this Agreement.

(ii)                                 Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.16 to the contrary, any mezzanine lender will have the right to purchase the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property, as applicable, and cure defaults relating thereto, as and to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(f)                Unless otherwise provided in an Intercreditor Agreement the sale of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.16 will be on a servicing released basis.

(g)               In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has the right to purchase any Companion Loan on behalf of the Trust pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall exercise such right.

Section 3.17        Additional Obligations of Master Servicer and Special Servicer. (a)  The Master Servicer shall deliver all Compensating Interest Payments (other than the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan) to the Certificate Administrator for deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on each P&I Advance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Master Servicer shall deliver the portion of any Compensating Interest Payment allocated to a Serviced Pari Passu

-244-

Companion Loan to the Companion Paying Agent for deposit in the Companion Distribution Account on each P&I Advance Date, without any right of reimbursement therefor.

(b)               The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to each Companion Holder any reports or notices required to be delivered to such Companion Holder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(c)               Upon the determination that a previously made Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, to the extent that the reimbursement thereof would exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections on the Mortgage Loans deposited in the Collection Account and available for distribution on the next Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, each at its own option and in its sole discretion, as applicable, instead of obtaining reimbursement for the remaining amount of such Nonrecoverable Advance pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(v) immediately, as an accommodation may elect to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement for such portion of the Nonrecoverable Advance during the one month collection period ending on the then-current Determination Date, for successive one-month periods for a total period not to exceed twelve (12) months (provided that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than in the case of an Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, any such deferral exceeding six (6) months shall require, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the consent of the Directing Certificateholder), and any election to so defer or not to defer shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee makes such an election at its sole option and in its sole discretion to defer reimbursement with respect to all or a portion of a Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon), then such Nonrecoverable Advance (together with interest thereon) or portion thereof shall continue to be fully reimbursable in the subsequent collection period (subject, again, to the same sole option to defer; it is acknowledged that, in such a subsequent period, such Nonrecoverable Advance shall again be payable first from principal collections as described above prior to payment from other collections). In connection with a potential election by the Master Servicer or the Trustee to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof during the one month collection period ending on the related Determination Date for any Distribution Date, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall further be authorized to wait for principal collections on the Mortgage Loans, to be received until the end of such collection period before making its determination of whether to refrain from the reimbursement of a particular Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof; provided, however, that if, at any time the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, elects, in its sole discretion, not to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement or otherwise determines that the reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance during a one-month collection period will exceed the full amount of the principal portion of general collections deposited in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall use its reasonable efforts to give the 17g-5 Information Provider fifteen (15) days’ notice of such determination for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), unless extraordinary circumstances make such notice impractical, and thereafter shall deliver such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider as soon as practical thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, failure to give notice as required by the preceding sentence shall in no way affect the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s election whether to refrain from obtaining such reimbursement as described in this Section 3.17(c). Nothing herein shall give the Master Servicer or the Trustee

-245-

the right to defer reimbursement of a Nonrecoverable Advance to the extent of any principal collections then available in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(v). The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have no liability for any loss, liability or expenses resulting from any notice provided to the Rating Agencies contemplated by this Section 3.17(c).

The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to limit any liability that may otherwise be imposed on such Person for any failure by such Person to comply with the conditions to making such an election under this section or to comply with the terms of this section and the other provisions of this Agreement that apply once such an election, if any, has been made; provided, however, that the fact that a decision to recover such Nonrecoverable Advances over time, or not to do so, benefits some Classes of Certificateholders to the detriment of other Classes of Certificateholders shall not, with respect to the Master Servicer, constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard and/or with respect to the Trustee (solely in its capacity as Trustee), constitute a violation of any fiduciary duty to Certificateholders or any contractual obligation hereunder. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion, to fully recover the Nonrecoverable Advances immediately instead of deferring such reimbursement, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances with interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate from all amounts in the Collection Account for such Distribution Date (deemed first from principal and then interest). Any such election by any such party to refrain from reimbursing itself or obtaining reimbursement for any Nonrecoverable Advance or portion thereof with respect to any one or more collection periods shall not limit the accrual of interest at the Reimbursement Rate on such Nonrecoverable Advance for the period prior to the actual reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advance. The Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, agreement to defer reimbursement of such Nonrecoverable Advances as set forth above is an accommodation to the Certificateholders and shall not be construed as an obligation on the part of the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, or a right of the Certificateholders. Nothing herein shall be deemed to create in the Certificateholders a right to prior payment of distributions over the Master Servicer’s or the Trustee’s, as applicable, right to reimbursement for Advances (deferred or otherwise) and accrued interest thereon. In all events, the decision to defer reimbursement or to seek immediate reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances shall be deemed to be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and none of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the other parties to this Agreement shall have any liability to one another or to any of the Certificateholders or any of the Companion Holders for any such election that such party makes as contemplated by this section or for any losses, damages or other adverse economic or other effects that may arise from such an election, nor shall such election constitute a violation of the Servicing Standard or any duty under this Agreement. Neither of the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall have any liability whatsoever for making an election, or refraining from making an election, that is authorized under this Section 3.17.

No determination by the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable) to exercise its sole option to defer the reimbursement of Advances and/or interest thereon under this section shall be construed as an agreement by the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable) to subordinate (in respect of realizing losses), to any Class of Certificates, such party’s right to such reimbursement during such period of deferral.

-246-

With respect to any modification or amendment of any Intercreditor Agreement related to a Serviced Whole Loan (to the extent received), the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to the 17g-5 Information Provider a copy of any such modification or amendment, which the 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly post on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

(d)         With respect to any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), if the related loan documents permit the lender to (but do not require the lender to), at its option, prior to an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), apply amounts held in any reserve account as a prepayment or hold such amounts in a reserve account, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, may not apply such amounts as a prepayment, and will instead continue to hold such amounts in the applicable reserve account, unless not applying those amounts as a prepayment would be a violation of the Servicing Standard. Such amount may be used, if permitted under the loan documents, to defease the loan, or may be used to prepay the Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Whole Loan), or for other purpose consistent with the Servicing Standard and the loan documents, upon a subsequent default.

(e)               Within three (3) Business Days after the execution of any amendment or modification of any Intercreditor Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to the Certificate Administrator a copy of such modification or amendment of any such Intercreditor Agreement, and such amendment or modification shall be a Reportable Event as set forth in Section 11.07.

Section 3.18        Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents. (a)  Except as set forth in Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b), this Section 3.18(a), Section 3.18(c), Section 3.18(f), Section 3.18(g) and Section 6.08, but subject to any other conditions set forth thereunder (including, without limitation, the Special Servicer’s or the Master Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to this subsection (a) with respect to any modification, waiver or amendment that constitutes a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision) and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or any Serviced Whole Loan, (and with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, subject to the rights of the related Companion Holder, as applicable, to advise or consult with the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, with respect to, or to consent to, a modification, waiver or amendment, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement), the Master Servicer shall not agree to any modification, waiver or amendment to the terms of a Mortgage Loan and/or Companion Loan that constitutes a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision without (x) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, the consent (or deemed consent) of the Directing Certificateholder having been obtained by the Special Servicer to the extent required by, and pursuant to the process described under, Section 6.08(a) or (y) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, the Special Servicer having consulted with the Directing Certificateholder if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a) or (z) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer having consulted with the Operating Advisor if and to the extent required pursuant to Section 6.08(a).

promptly provide the Special Servicer with notice of any request for such modification, waiver or amendment, the Master Servicer’s written recommendation and analysis, and all information reasonably available to the Master Servicer that may be reasonably requested by the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent; provided that in the event that the Special Servicer does not respond within ten (10) Business Days (or 30 days in the case of an Acceptable Insurance Default) after receipt of such recommendation and analysis and all such information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent, plus the time period provided to the Directing Certificateholder or other relevant party under this Agreement and, if applicable, any time period provided to a Companion Holder under a related Intercreditor Agreement, the Special Servicer’s consent to such modification, waiver or amendment shall be deemed granted; and provided, further, that no extension entered into pursuant to this Section 3.18(a) shall extend the Maturity Date beyond the earlier of (i) five (5) years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and (ii) in the case of a Mortgage Loan secured solely or primarily by a leasehold estate and not also the related fee interest, the date twenty (20) years or, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard giving due consideration to the remaining term of the Ground Lease, ten (10) years, prior to the expiration of such leasehold estate. If such extension would extend the Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan for more than twelve (12) months from and after the original Maturity Date of such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan and such Mortgage Loan and/or related Companion Loan is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable, prior to any such extension, the party processing the transaction shall (1) provide the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to such party) the Directing Certificateholder and the Risk Retention Consultation Party, with an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if not required or permitted to be paid by the Mortgagor, to be paid as an expense of the Trust in accordance with Section 3.11(d)) that such extension would not constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and (2) subject to the Servicing Standard, (w) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to an Excluded Loan, obtain the consent of the Directing Certificateholder (or, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a related AB Control Appraisal Period, the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, to the extent required under the related Intercreditor Agreement) (or other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to such party, consult with (x) the Directing Certificateholder (after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event) and (y) the Risk Retention Consultation Party pursuant to the process described in Section 6.08(a) (which consent or consultation shall be coordinated through the Special Servicer)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the rights of the related Companion Holder to advise the Master Servicer with respect to, or consent to, such modification, waiver or amendment pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement and subject to the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights pursuant to this subsection (a), the Master Servicer, with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans, without the consent of the applicable Special Servicer or Directing Certificateholder, may modify or amend the terms of any Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan in order to (i) cure any

-248-

ambiguity or mistake therein or (ii) correct or supplement any provisions therein which may be inconsistent with any other provisions therein or correct any error; provided that, if the Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and/or related Serviced Companion Loan is not in default or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable, such modification or amendment would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

Subject to Section 6.08, applicable law and the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan documents, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall permit the substitution of any Mortgaged Property (or any portion thereof) for one or more other parcels of real property at any time the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan is not in default pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan documents or default with respect thereto is not reasonably foreseeable unless (i) the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, obtains Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (and delivers such Rating Agency Confirmation to the Directing Certificateholder and the Risk Retention Consultation Party, if permitted by the applicable Rating Agency) and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) and (ii) such substitution would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan and/or related Serviced Companion Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) or otherwise cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur (and the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, may obtain and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor if not prohibited by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents, and if so prohibited, at the expense of the Trust) with respect thereto).

In connection with (i) the release of a Mortgaged Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or any portion of such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage or (ii) the taking of a Mortgaged Property (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property), or any portion of such Mortgaged Property by exercise of the power of eminent domain or condemnation, if the related Mortgage Loan documents require the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to calculate (or to approve the calculation of the related Mortgagor of) the loan-to-value ratio of the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties or the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, for purposes of REMIC qualification of the related Mortgage Loan, then such calculation shall, unless then permitted by the REMIC Provisions, exclude the value of personal property and going concern value, if any, as determined by an appropriate third party.

If, following any such release or taking, the loan-to-value ratio (as so calculated) is greater than 125%, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall require payment of principal by a “qualified amount” as determined under Revenue Procedure 2010-30 or any successor provision, unless the related Mortgagor provides an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor if allowed by the terms of the related Mortgage Loan

-249-

documents, and if not allowed, at the expense of the Trust) that, if such amount is not paid, the related Mortgage Loan will not fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that causes a defective obligation to be treated as a qualified mortgage).

Upon receiving a request for any matter described in this Section 3.18(a) that constitutes a Special Servicer Decision (other than a matter listed under subclauses (i) and (ii) of clause (v) of Special Servicer Decisions) or a Major Decision with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan, the Master Servicer shall forward such request to the Special Servicer and, unless the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process such request, the Special Servicer shall process such request and the Master Servicer shall have no further obligation with respect to such request or such Special Servicer Decision (other than a matter listed under subclauses (i) and (ii) of clause (v) of Special Servicer Decisions) or Major Decision.

(b)               If the Special Servicer determines that a modification, waiver or amendment (including, without limitation, the forgiveness or deferral of interest or principal or the substitution of collateral pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and/or related Serviced Companion Loan or otherwise, the release of collateral or the pledge of additional collateral) of the terms of a Specially Serviced Loan (or any Non-Specially Serviced Loan with respect to which such determination derives from the Special Servicer’s consideration of a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision that is subject to its processing and/or consent rights pursuant to Section 3.18(a) of this Agreement) with respect to which a payment default or other material default has occurred or a payment default or other material default is, in the Special Servicer’s judgment, reasonably foreseeable (as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Special Servicer), is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a net present value basis (the relevant discounting to be performed at the related Mortgage Rate) to the Trust and, if applicable, the Companion Holders, as the holders of the related Serviced Companion Loan, than liquidation of such Specially Serviced Loan, then the Special Servicer may agree to a modification, waiver or amendment of such Specially Serviced Loan, subject to (x) the provisions of this Section 3.18(b) and Section 3.18(c), (y)(a) with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the approval of the Directing Certificateholder (or after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, but prior to a Consultation Termination Event, upon consultation with the Directing Certificateholder) as provided in Section 6.08 and (b) with respect to any Major Decision in respect of a Specially Serviced Loan other than an Excluded Loan with respect to the Risk Retention Consultation Party, upon consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Party as provided in Section 6.08; provided that with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of the related AB Control Appraisal Period, the approval of the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder will be required to the extent set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement and the Directing Certificateholder shall have no consent or consultation rights, and the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have no consultation rights, regarding the matter; and (z) additionally, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the rights of the related Companion Holder or with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) with mezzanine debt, the rights of the related mezzanine lender, to advise or consult with the Special Servicer with respect to, or consent to, such

-250-

modification, waiver or amendment, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, as applicable; provided that in the case of any release or substitution of collateral (other than a defeasance), the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel that such release or substitution would not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) or otherwise cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

The Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to the extent possible to cause each Specially Serviced Loan to fully amortize prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and shall not agree to a modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Specially Serviced Loan if such modification, waiver or amendment would (1) extend the Maturity Date of any such Specially Serviced Loan to a date occurring later than the earlier of (a) five (5) years prior to the Rated Final Distribution Date and (b) if such Specially Serviced Loan is secured solely or primarily by a leasehold estate and not also the related fee interest, the date occurring twenty (20) years or, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard giving due consideration to the remaining term of the Ground Lease and, ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to such party) with the consent of the Directing Certificateholder and ((i) to the extent such modification, waiver or amendment constitutes a Major Decision and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to such party) after consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Party, ten (10) years prior to the expiration of such leasehold estate (including any options to extend such leasehold estate exercisable unilaterally by the related Mortgagor), or (2) provide for the deferral of interest unless interest accrues on the related Mortgage Loan, or Serviced Whole Loan generally at the related Mortgage Rate.

(c)               Any provision of this Section 3.18 to the contrary notwithstanding, except when a Mortgage Loan and/or Companion Loan is in default or default with respect thereto is reasonably foreseeable, no fee described in this Section 3.18 shall be collected by any Master Servicer or Special Servicer from a Mortgagor (or on behalf of the Mortgagor) in conjunction with any consent or any modification, waiver or amendment of a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as applicable (unless the amount thereof is specified in the related Mortgage Note) if the collection of such fee would cause such consent, modification, waiver or amendment to be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Note within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

To the extent consistent with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the first sentence of Section 3.18(a), and Section 6.08), the Master Servicer (as provided in Section 3.08(a) and 3.08(b) and subject to the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights, if any such waiver, modification or amendment constitutes a Major Decision or Special Servicer Decision) or the Special Servicer may, consistent with the Servicing Standard, agree to any waiver, modification or amendment of a Mortgage Loan and/or Serviced Companion Loan

-251-

that is not in default or as to which default is not reasonably foreseeable only if the contemplated waiver, modification or amendment (i) will not be a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and (ii) will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur. In making this determination, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer may obtain and rely upon (and shall provide to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator if obtained) an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor or such other Person requesting such modification or, if such expense cannot be collected from the related Mortgagor or such other Person, to be paid out of the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05(a); provided that the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall use its reasonable efforts to collect such fee from the Mortgagor or such other Person to the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer may waive the payment of any Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge or the requirement that any prepayment of a Mortgage Loan be made on a Due Date, or if not made on a Due Date, be accompanied by all interest that would be due on the next Due Date with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan that is not a Specially Serviced Loan.

(d)               Subject to Section 3.18(c), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each may, as a condition to its granting any request by a Mortgagor for consent, modification (including extensions), waiver or indulgence or any other matter or thing, the granting of which is within the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, discretion pursuant to the terms of the instruments evidencing or securing the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan and is permitted by the terms of this Agreement, require that such Mortgagor pay to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, as additional servicing compensation, a reasonable or customary fee, for the additional services performed in connection with such request; provided that the charging of such fee is not a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b).

(e)               All modifications (including extensions), waivers and amendments of the Mortgage Loans and/or Companion Loans entered into pursuant to this Section 3.18 shall be in writing, signed by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and the related Mortgagor (and by any guarantor of the related Mortgage Loan, if such guarantor’s signature is required by the Special Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard).

With respect to any modification, waiver, amendment or consent for which it is responsible for processing pursuant to Section 3.18(a), the Special Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Directing Certificateholder (other than (i) following the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Risk Retention Consultation Party (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), the applicable Companion Holder (or if such Companion Loan is included in a securitization, the master servicer of such Other Securitization) (unless, with respect to a holder of a Serviced AB Subordinate Companion Loan, an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred, if applicable, , and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) in writing of any modification, waiver or amendment (in each case, after it is finalized and executed) of any term of any Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan that is modified, waived or amended and the date thereof. With respect to any modification, waiver or

-252-

amendment (in each case, after it is finalized and executed) for which it is responsible for processing pursuant to Section 3.18(a), the Master Servicer shall provide written notice of any such modification, waiver or amendment to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and other than with respect to an Excluded Loan), the Risk Retention Consultation Party (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan), the applicable Companion Holder (unless, with respect to a holder of a Serviced AB Subordinate Companion Loan, an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred and the related Mortgage Loan Seller (so long as such Mortgage Loan Seller is not a Master Servicer or Sub-Servicer of such Mortgage Loan or the Directing Certificateholder or the Risk Retention Consultation Party) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)). The party responsible for delivering notice shall deliver to the Custodian with a copy to the Master Servicer (if such notice is being delivered by the Special Servicer) for deposit in the related Mortgage File, an original counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver or amendment, promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) following the execution thereof, with a copy to the applicable Companion Holder (or if such Companion Loan is in a securitization, the master servicer of such Other Securitization), if any. Following receipt of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as applicable, delivery of the aforesaid modification, waiver or amendment to the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Administrator shall forward a copy thereof to each Holder of a Certificate (other than the Class R Certificates) upon request. With respect to the processing of any modification, waiver or consent related to any Mortgagor incurring Additional Debt or mezzanine debt, the Special Servicer (if the Special Servicer processes such modification, waiver or consent pursuant to Section 3.18(a)) or the Master Servicer (if the Master Servicer processes such modification, waiver or consent pursuant to Section 3.18(a)) shall, on or before the later of (i) 3:00 p.m. on the related P&I Advance Date and (ii) five (5) Business Days immediately following the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, obtaining actual knowledge of the incurrence of such Additional Debt or mezzanine debt, deliver notice of the Mortgagor’s incurrence of such debt, substantially in the form of Exhibit KK, to !nacctsecnotifications@computershare.com and an Additional Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit EE.

From time to time, the Master Servicer, Special Servicer and Certificate Administrator may agree on a different delivery time and format for the information set forth in this paragraph.

(f)                The Master Servicer shall process all defeasance transactions, subject to the Special Servicer’s consent with respect to any Special Servicer Decision relating to a defeasance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not permit (or, with regard to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, take any act in furtherance of) the substitution of any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan unless such defeasance complies with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) and the Master Servicer has received (i) replacement collateral consisting of government securities within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), which satisfies the requirements of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents, in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the related Mortgage Loan (or defeased portion thereof) when due, (ii) a certificate of an Independent certified public accountant to the effect that such substituted property will provide cash flows sufficient to meet all payments of interest and principal (including payments at maturity) on such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan in compliance with the requirements of the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, (iii) one or more Opinions of Counsel (at the expense of the related Mortgagor) to the effect that the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, will have a first priority perfected security interest in such substituted Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that, to the extent consistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the related Mortgagor shall pay the cost of any such opinion as a condition to granting such defeasance, (iv) to the extent consistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Mortgagor shall establish a single purpose entity to act as a successor Mortgagor, if so required by the Rating Agencies, (v) to the extent permissible under the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to require the related Mortgagor to pay all costs of such defeasance, including but not limited to the cost of maintaining any successor Mortgagor, and (vi) to the extent permissible under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall obtain, at the expense of the related Mortgagor, Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25); provided, further, however, that no such confirmation from any Rating Agency shall be required to the extent that the Master Servicer has delivered a defeasance certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit U hereto for any Mortgage Loan that (together with any Mortgage Loans cross-collateralized with such Mortgage Loans) is: (i) a Mortgage Loan with a Cut-off Date Balance less than $35,000,000, (ii) a Mortgage Loan that represents less than 5% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Balance of all Mortgage Loans, and (iii) a Mortgage Loan that is not one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans by Stated Principal Balance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that requiring the Mortgagor to pay for the items specified in clauses (ii), (iv) and (v) in the preceding sentence would be inconsistent with the related Mortgage Loan documents, such reasonable costs shall be paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller as and to the extent set forth in the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

(g)               Notwithstanding anything herein or in the related Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents, to the contrary, the Master Servicer

-254-

may permit the substitution of “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) for any Mortgaged Property pursuant to the defeasance provisions of any Mortgage Loan or a Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable (or any portion thereof), in lieu of the defeasance collateral specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents or Serviced Whole Loan documents, as applicable; provided that such substitution is consistent with the Servicing Standard and the Master Servicer (subject to the Special Servicer’s processing and/or consent rights with respect to any such action that constitutes a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision) reasonably determines that allowing their use would not cause a default or event of default to become reasonably foreseeable and the Master Servicer receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Mortgagor to the extent permitted under the Mortgage Loan documents and, if applicable, Companion Loan documents or otherwise as a Trust Fund expense) to the effect that such use would not be and would not constitute a “significant modification” of such Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b) and would not otherwise constitute an Adverse REMIC Event with respect to any Trust REMIC; and provided, further, that the requirements set forth in Section 3.18(f) (including receipt of any Rating Agency Confirmation) are satisfied; and provided, further, that such securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government, or the Master Servicer shall obtain Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans identified as Mortgage Loan numbers 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 12, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 29, 32, 33, 34 and 35 on the Mortgage Loan Schedule for which AREF2, Barclays, GACC, KeyBank, UBS or BSPRT is the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller and that are subject to defeasance, the related Mortgage Loan Seller has transferred to a third party or has retained on behalf of itself or an Affiliate the right to establish or designate the successor borrower and/or to purchase or cause to be purchased the related defeasance collateral (any such right or obligation, the “Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations”). In the event the Master Servicer receives notice of a defeasance request with respect to a Mortgage Loan for which AREF2, Barclays, GACC, KeyBank, UBS or BSPRT is the related Mortgage Loan Seller, which such Mortgage Loan provides for Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations in the related Mortgage Loan documents, the Master Servicer shall provide, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such notice, written notice of such defeasance request to AREF2, Barclays, GACC, KeyBank, UBS or BSPRT, as applicable. Until such time as the related Mortgage Loan Seller provides the Master Servicer with written notice to the contrary, the notice of a defeasance of a Mortgage Loan with Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations as to which AREF2, Barclays, GACC, KeyBank, UBS or BSPRT is the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall be delivered to the related Mortgage Loan Seller at its respective notice address provided under Section 13.05. With respect to any such Mortgage Loan that is subject to defeasance, if the successor borrower is not designated or formed by the related Mortgage Loan Seller or any Affiliate or successor thereto, the successor borrower shall be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

-255-

(h)               If required under the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents or if otherwise consistent with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Defeasance Accounts”), which shall be Eligible Accounts, into which all payments received by the Master Servicer from any defeasance collateral substituted for any Mortgaged Property shall be deposited and retained, and shall administer such Defeasance Accounts in accordance with the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Master Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Defeasance Account for a period in excess of ninety (90) days, unless such amounts are reinvested by the Master Servicer in “government securities,” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii). To the extent not required or permitted to be placed in a separate account, the Master Servicer shall deposit all payments received by it from defeasance collateral substituted for any Mortgaged Property into the Collection Account and treat any such payments as payments made on the Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan in advance of its Due Date in accordance with clause (a)(i) of the definition of “Available Funds” and not as a prepayment of the related Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer permit such amounts to be maintained in the Collection Account for a period in excess of 365 days (or 366 days in the case of a leap year).

(i)                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall, unless it has received Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) (the cost of which shall be paid by the related Mortgagor, if so allowed by the terms of the related loan documents and otherwise paid out of general collections) grant or accept any consent, approval or direction regarding the termination of the related property manager or the designation of any replacement property manager, with respect to any Mortgaged Property that secures a Mortgage Loan that (i) is one of the ten largest Mortgage Loans by Stated Principal Balance or (ii) has an unpaid principal balance that is at least equal to five percent (5%) of the then aggregate principal balance of all Mortgage Loans or $35,000,000.

(j)                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in connection with any modification, waiver, consent or amendment in connection with any defeasance transaction contemplated by clause (v) in the definition of “Special Servicer Decision,” if applicable, the Special Servicer shall not process, consent to or approve, as applicable, any such modification, waiver, consent or amendment without first having received a copy of an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer that such modification, waiver, consent or amendment will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur.

Section 3.19        Transfer of Servicing Between Master Servicer and Special Servicer; Recordkeeping; Asset Status Report. (a)  Upon determining that a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable,

-256-

shall promptly give notice to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder thereof, and the Master Servicer shall deliver the related Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Special Servicer and concurrently provide a copy of such Servicing File, exclusive of all Privileged Communications, to the Operating Advisor. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all documents and records (including records stored electronically on computer tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan, either in the Master Servicer’s possession or otherwise available to the Master Servicer without undue burden or expense, and reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its functions hereunder with respect thereto. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the occurrence of each related Servicing Transfer Event (or, in the case of clauses (viii), (ix) or (x) of the definition of Servicing Transfer Event, within five (5) Business Days of receiving notice from the Special Servicer of such Servicing Transfer Event when the Special Servicer makes the determination) and in any event shall continue to act as Master Servicer and administrator of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan until the Special Servicer has commenced the servicing of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, and ((i) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event or (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder, a copy of the notice of such Servicing Transfer Event provided by the Master Servicer to the Special Servicer, or by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer, pursuant to this Section 3.19. Prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall deliver to each Controlling Class Certificateholder a copy of the notice of such Servicing Transfer Event provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.19.

Upon determining that a Specially Serviced Loan (other than an REO Loan) has become current and has remained current for three consecutive Periodic Payments (provided that (i) no additional Servicing Transfer Event is foreseeable in the reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, and (ii) for such purposes taking into account any modification or amendment of such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan), and that no other Servicing Transfer Event is continuing with respect thereto, the Special Servicer shall promptly give notice thereof to the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder (unless with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan an AB Control Appraisal Period has occurred) and ((i) prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder and shall return the related Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Master Servicer (or copies thereof if copies only were delivered to the Special Servicer) and upon giving such notice, and returning such Mortgage File and Servicing File to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer’s obligation to service such Corrected Loan shall terminate and the obligations of the Master Servicer to service and administer such Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan shall recommence.

(b)               In servicing any Specially Serviced Loans and Serviced Companion Loans, the Special Servicer will provide to the Custodian originals of documents included within

-257-

the definition of “Mortgage File” for inclusion in the related Mortgage File to the extent within its possession (with a copy of each such original to the Master Servicer), and provide the Master Servicer with copies of any additional related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan information including written correspondence with the related Mortgagor.

(c)               Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.12(c), the Master Servicer shall maintain ongoing payment records with respect to each of the Specially Serviced Loans, Serviced Companion Loans and REO Properties (other than with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and shall provide the Special Servicer with any information in its possession with respect to such records to enable the Special Servicer to perform its duties under this Agreement; provided that this statement shall not be construed to require the Master Servicer to produce any additional reports.

(d)               No later than sixty (60) days after a Servicing Transfer Event for a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and, if applicable, the related Companion Loan (the “Initial Delivery Date”), the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format (i) a report (the “Asset Status Report”) with respect to such Mortgage Loan and related Companion Loan, if applicable, and the related Mortgaged Property and (ii) amend, update or create a new Asset Status Report to the extent that during the course of the resolution of such Specially Serviced Loan material changes in the circumstances and/or strategy reflected in any current Final Asset Status Report are necessary to reflect the then current circumstances and recommendation as to how the Specially Serviced Loan might be returned to performing status or otherwise liquidated in accordance with the Servicing Standard (each such report a “Subsequent Asset Status Report”). The Special Servicer shall deliver each Asset Status Report in electronic form to: (i) the Master Servicer, (ii) the Directing Certificateholder (but only in respect of any Mortgage Loan other than any Excluded Loan as to such party and in any event prior to the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), (iii) the Risk Retention Consultation Party (but only with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than any Excluded Loan as to such party), (iv) the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder with respect to the Serviced AB Whole Loan, only to the extent the Serviced AB Subordinate Companion Loan is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period, (v) the Operating Advisor (but, other than with respect to an Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, and in the case of any Serviced AB Whole Loan, only to the extent such Serviced AB Whole Loan is subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period), (vi) the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)) and, (vii) with respect to any related Serviced Companion Loan, to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the master servicer of such Other Securitization into which the related Serviced Companion Loan has been sold or to the related Companion Holder. Such Asset Status Report shall set forth the following information to the extent reasonably determinable based on the information that was delivered to the Special Servicer in connection with the transfer of servicing pursuant to the Servicing Transfer Event:

(i)                                    a summary of the status of such Specially Serviced Loan and any negotiations with the related Mortgagor;

-258-

(ii)                            a discussion of the legal and environmental considerations reasonably known to the Special Servicer, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that are applicable to the exercise of remedies as aforesaid and to the enforcement of any related guaranties or other collateral for the related Specially Serviced Loan (and any related Serviced Companion Loan) and whether outside legal counsel has been retained;

(iii)                              the most current rent roll and income or operating statement available for the related Mortgaged Property;

(iv)                             (A) the Special Servicer’s recommendations on how such Specially Serviced Loan might be returned to performing status (including the modification of a monetary term, and any workout, restructure or debt forgiveness) and returned to the Master Servicer for regular servicing or foreclosed or otherwise realized upon (including any proposed sale of a Defaulted Loan or REO Property), (B) a description of any such proposed or taken actions, and (C) the alternative courses of action that were or are being considered by the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed or taken actions;

(v)                                the status of any foreclosure actions or other proceedings undertaken with respect to the Specially Serviced Loan, any proposed workouts and the status of any negotiations with respect to such workouts, and an assessment of the likelihood of additional defaults under the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan;

(vi)                              a description of any amendment, modification or waiver of a material term of any ground lease (or any space lease or air rights lease, if applicable) or franchise agreement;

(vii)                          the decision that the Special Servicer made, or intends or proposes to make, including a narrative analysis setting forth the Special Servicer’s rationale for its proposed decision, including its rejection of the alternatives;

(viii)                        an analysis of whether or not taking such proposed action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery on a present value basis than not taking such action, setting forth (x) the basis on which the Special Servicer made such determination and (y) the net present value calculation and all related assumptions;

(ix)                                the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property (and a copy of the last obtained Appraisal of such Mortgaged Property) together with a description of any adjustments to the valuation of such Mortgaged Property made by the Special Servicer together with an explanation of those adjustments; and

(x)                                   such other information as the Special Servicer deems relevant in light of the Servicing Standard.

A summary of each Final Asset Status Report shall be provided to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall post such summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator’s website.

-259-

If within ten (10) Business Days of receiving an Asset Status Report, the Directing Certificateholder does not disapprove such Asset Status Report in writing or if the Special Servicer makes a determination, in accordance with the Servicing Standard that the disapproval by the Directing Certificateholder (communicated to the Special Servicer within ten (10) Business Days) is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan), the Special Servicer shall implement the recommended action as outlined in such Asset Status Report; provided, however, that the Special Servicer may not take any action that is contrary to applicable law, the Servicing Standard or the terms of the applicable Mortgage Loan documents. If, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder disapproves such Asset Status Report within ten (10) Business Days of receipt and the Special Servicer has not made the affirmative determination described above, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report and deliver a new Asset Status Report as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after such disapproval, to the Master Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and, in the case of a Serviced AB Whole Loan, only prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and during an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan), the Operating Advisor (but only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)). With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of any Control Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall revise such Asset Status Report as described above in this Section 3.19(d) until the Directing Certificateholder shall fail to disapprove such revised Asset Status Report in writing within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such revised Asset Status Report or until the Special Servicer makes a determination, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that the disapproval is not in the best interests of the Certificateholders and the holder of any related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any Companion Loan); provided that, if the Directing Certificateholder has not approved the Asset Status Report for a period of sixty (60) Business Days following the first submission of an Asset Status Report, the Special Servicer shall follow the Directing Certificateholder’s direction, if such direction is consistent with the Servicing Standard; provided, however, that if the Directing Certificateholder’s direction would cause the Special Servicer to violate the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer may act upon the most recently submitted form of Asset Status Report; provided, further, however, that such Asset Status Report does not, and is not intended to be, a substitute for the approvals that are specifically required pursuant to Section 6.08. Prior to an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall deliver each Final Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor promptly following the completion of the Directing Certificateholder Approval Process.

The Special Servicer may, from time to time, modify any Asset Status Report it has previously delivered and implement such report; provided that such report shall have been prepared, reviewed and not rejected pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.19(d). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan (regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Special

-260-

Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with an Asset Status Report for an Excluded Loan which includes a Major Decision and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

No direction or disapproval of the Directing Certificateholder hereunder or under a related Intercreditor Agreement or failure of the Directing Certificateholder to consent to or approve (including any deemed consents or approvals) any request of the Special Servicer, shall (a) require or cause the Special Servicer to violate the terms of a Specially Serviced Loan, applicable law or any provision of this Agreement, including the Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and to maintain the REMIC status of each Trust REMIC, (b) result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions, (c) expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator or their respective officers, directors, members, employees or agents to any claim, suit or liability or (d) materially expand the scope of the Special Servicer’s, Trustee’s or the Master Servicer’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

If an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing (or, with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, if both an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing and an AB Control Appraisal Period is in effect), the Special Servicer shall promptly deliver each Asset Status Report prepared in connection with a Specially Serviced Loan to the Operating Advisor (and if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and such Specially Serviced Loan is not an Excluded Loan as to such party, the Directing Certificateholder). Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor’s review of a Final Asset Status Report shall only provide background information to support the Operating Advisor’s duties concerning the Special Servicer’s compliance with the Servicing Standard, and the Operating Advisor shall not provide comments to the Special Servicer in respect of such Final Asset Status Report. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall provide comments to the Special Servicer in respect of the Asset Status Report, if any, within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) receipt of such Asset Status Report or (ii) receipt of such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor related thereto, and propose possible alternative courses of action to the extent it determines such alternatives to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders (including any Certificateholders that are holders of the Control Eligible Certificates), as a collective whole. The Special Servicer shall consider such alternative courses of action and any other feedback provided by the Operating Advisor (and if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and such Specially Serviced Loan is not an Excluded Loan as to such party, the Directing Certificateholder) in connection with the Special Servicer’s preparation of any Asset Status Report. The Special Servicer may revise the Asset Status Report as it deems necessary to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor (and if no Consultation Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and such Specially Serviced Loan is not an Excluded Loan as to such party, the Directing Certificateholder), to the extent the Special Servicer determines that the Operating Advisor’s and/or Directing Certificateholder’s input and/or recommendations are consistent with the Servicing Standard and in the best interest of the Certificateholders as a collective whole (or, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, the best

-261-

interest of the Certificateholders and the holders of the related Companion Loan, as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of such Companion Loan)).

If the Special Servicer determines to revise any Asset Status Report to take into account any input and/or comments from the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder, the Special Servicer shall promptly revise the Asset Status Report, if applicable (but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder), and deliver to the Operating Advisor and the Directing Certificateholder the revised Asset Status Report (until a Final Asset Status Report is issued) or provide notice that the Special Servicer has decided not to revise such Asset Status Report, as applicable.

After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder (and at any time with respect to any Excluded Loan as to such party) shall have no right to consent to any Asset Status Report under this Section 3.19. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, each of the Directing Certificateholder (except with respect to any Excluded Loan or, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, the related Serviced AB Whole Loan), and, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, the Operating Advisor, shall consult with the Special Servicer (electronically or telephonically) and propose alternative courses of action and provide other feedback on a non-binding basis in respect of any Asset Status Report. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Excluded Loan), the Directing Certificateholder (other than in its capacity as a Certificateholder) shall have no right to receive any Asset Status Report or otherwise consult with the Special Servicer with respect to Asset Status Reports and the Special Servicer shall only be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor with respect to any Asset Status Report as described above. The Special Servicer may choose to revise the Asset Status Report as it deems reasonably necessary in accordance with the Servicing Standard to take into account any input and/or recommendations of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder during the applicable periods described above, but is under no obligation to follow any particular recommendation of the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, the Special Servicer shall prepare an Asset Status Report for any Serviced AB Whole Loan, upon it becoming a Specially Serviced Loan pursuant to this Agreement and the related Intercreditor Agreement, but the Directing Certificateholder will have no approval rights over any such Asset Status Report, and the consent or approval rights with respect to such Asset Status Report shall be as set forth in the related Intercreditor Agreement.

(e)               (i)  Upon receiving notice of the occurrence of the events described in clause (iv) and (x) of the definition of Servicing Transfer Event (without regard to the 60-day or 30-day period, respectively, set forth therein), the Master Servicer shall with reasonable promptness give notice thereof, and shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information relating to the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Companion Loan and

-262-

reasonably requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to negotiate with the related Mortgagor. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five (5) Business Days of the occurrence of each such event.

(ii)                                  After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, upon receiving notice of the occurrence of an event described in clause (iv) or (x) of the definition of Servicing Transfer Event (without regard to the 60-day or 30-day period, respectively, set forth therein), the Master Servicer shall deliver notice thereof to the Operating Advisor at the same time such notice is provided to the Special Servicer pursuant to clause (i) above.

(f)                Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, no later than two (2) Business Days following the establishment of a Final Asset Status Report with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan (other than any Excluded Loan), the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format to the Directing Certificateholder a draft notice that will include a draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report (which briefly summarizes such Final Asset Status Report, but shall not include any Privileged Information) and shall deliver each Final Asset Status Report with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period (to the extent approved by the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder), to the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder. With respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, if, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such draft summary, the Directing Certificateholder approves of, or does not disapprove of such draft summary, then the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format such notice and summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b). If the Directing Certificateholder affirmatively disapproves of such summary in writing, then within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such disapproval, the Special Servicer shall revise the summary and deliver such new summary to the Directing Certificateholder until the Directing Certificateholder approves such draft summary; provided, however, that if the Directing Certificateholder has not approved of the draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report within twenty (20) Business Days of receipt of the initial draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report, then the most recent draft summary of the Final Asset Status Report delivered by the Special Servicer prior to such 20th Business Day shall be deemed to be the final summary of the Final Asset Status Report; provided, further, however, that if at any time the Special Servicer determines that any affirmative disapproval of such draft summary by the Directing Certificateholder is not in the best interest of all the Certificateholders pursuant to the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer shall deliver in electronic format such notice and summary of the Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) notwithstanding such disapproval. The Special Servicer shall promptly deliver (but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days following its completion) a copy of each Final Asset Status Report to the Operating Advisor. The Special Servicer shall prepare a summary of any Final Asset Status Report related to any Serviced AB Whole Loan for which the related holder of an AB Subordinate Companion Loan is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period, which Final Asset Status Report has been approved or deemed approved by the holder of the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent such Intercreditor Agreement requires such approval or deemed approval), and deliver in

-263-

electronic format notice of such Final Asset Status Report and the summary of such Final Asset Status Report to the Certificate Administrator for posting on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b).

(g)               No provision of this Section 3.19 shall require the Special Servicer to take or to refrain from taking any action because of any proposal, objection or comment by the Operating Advisor or a recommendation of the Operating Advisor.

Section 3.20        Sub-Servicing Agreements. (a)  The Master Servicer and Special Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements to provide for the performance by third parties of any or all of its respective obligations hereunder; provided that the Sub-Servicing Agreement as amended or modified: (i) is consistent with this Agreement in all material respects and requires the Sub-Servicer to comply with all of the applicable conditions of this Agreement; (ii) provides that if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall for any reason no longer act in such capacity hereunder (including, without limitation, by reason of a Servicer Termination Event), the Trustee or its designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and, except to the extent they arose prior to the date of assumption, obligations of such party under such agreement, or, alternatively, may act in accordance with Section 7.02 hereof under the circumstances described therein (subject to Section 3.20(g) hereof); (iii) provides that the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Companion Holder (if applicable)) and the Trustee (as holder of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests) shall be a third party beneficiary under such Sub-Servicing Agreement, but that (except to the extent the Trustee or its designee assumes the obligations of such party thereunder as contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (ii)) none of the Trust, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable (other than the Master Servicer or Special Servicer that enters into such Sub-Servicing Agreement), any successor master servicer or successor special servicer or any Certificateholder (or the related Companion Holder, if applicable) shall have any duties under such Sub-Servicing Agreement or any liabilities arising therefrom; (iv) permits any purchaser of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement to terminate such Sub-Servicing Agreement with respect to such purchased Mortgage Loan at its option and without penalty; provided, however, that the Initial Sub-Servicing Agreements may only be terminated by the Trustee or its designees as contemplated by Section 3.20(g) hereof and in such additional manner and by such other Persons as is provided in such Sub-Servicing Agreement; (v) does not permit the Sub-Servicer any direct rights of indemnification that may be satisfied out of assets of the Trust except through the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, if and only to the extent provided pursuant to Section 6.04; (vi) does not permit the Sub-Servicer to modify any Mortgage Loan unless and to the extent the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, is permitted hereunder to modify such Mortgage Loan; (vii) does not permit the Sub-Servicer to take any action constituting a Major Decision or a Special Servicer Decision without the consent of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable (subject to the rights of the Directing Certificateholder pursuant to Section 6.08); (viii) with respect to any Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into after the Closing Date, if such Sub-Servicer is a Servicing Function Participant or an Additional Servicer, such Sub-Servicer, at the time the related Sub-Servicing Agreement is entered into, is not a Prohibited Party and (ix) provides that the Sub-Servicer shall be in default under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement and such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be terminated (following the expiration of any applicable Grace Period) if, among other things, the

-264-

Sub-Servicer fails (A) to deliver by the due date any Exchange Act reporting items required to be delivered to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Depositor under Article XI or under the Sub-Servicing Agreement or to the master servicer, certificate administrator or depositor under any other pooling and servicing agreement that the Depositor is a party to, or (B) to perform in any material respect any of its covenants or obligations contained in the Sub-Servicing Agreement regarding creating, obtaining or delivering any Exchange Act reporting items required for any party to this Agreement to perform its obligations under Article XI or under any other pooling and servicing agreement governing any related Serviced Companion Loan; and (x) provides that such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be terminable if at any time the related Sub-Servicer is Risk Retention Affiliated with a Subsequent Third Party Purchaser if such Sub-Servicer is a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2). Any successor master servicer or special servicer, as applicable, hereunder shall, upon becoming successor master servicer or special servicer, as applicable, be assigned and may assume any Sub-Servicing Agreements from the predecessor master servicer or special servicer, as applicable (subject to Section 3.20(g) hereof). In addition, each Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Master Servicer may but need not provide that the obligations of the Sub-Servicer thereunder may terminate with respect to any Mortgage Loan serviced thereunder at the time such Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Loan; provided, however, that the Sub-Servicing Agreement may provide (if the Sub-Servicing Agreement provides for Advances by the Sub-Servicer, although it need not so provide) that the Sub-Servicer will continue to make all Advances and calculations and prepare all reports required under the Sub-Servicing Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Loans and continue to collect its Primary Servicing Fees as if no Servicing Transfer Event had occurred and with respect to REO Properties (and the related REO Loans) as if no REO Acquisition had occurred and to render such incidental services with respect to such Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as are specifically provided for in such Sub-Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments thereto and modifications thereof, entered into by it, in each case promptly upon its execution and delivery of such documents. References in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer include actions taken or to be taken by a Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer; and, in connection therewith, all amounts advanced by any Sub-Servicer (if the Sub-Servicing Agreement provides for Advances by the Sub-Servicer, although it need not so provide) to satisfy the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder to make Advances shall be deemed to have been advanced by the Master Servicer out of its own funds and, accordingly, in such event, such Advances shall be recoverable by such Sub-Servicer in the same manner and out of the same funds as if such Sub-Servicer were the Master Servicer, and, for so long as they are outstanding, such Advances shall accrue interest in accordance with Section 3.03(d), such interest to be allocable between the Master Servicer and such Sub-Servicer as may be provided (if at all) pursuant to the terms of the Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(a)  Notwithstanding the terms of any related Mortgage Loan documents or other provisions of this Agreement, if any action under any Mortgage Loan documents or this Agreement requires Rating Agency Confirmation as a condition precedent to such action, if the party (the “RAC Requesting Party”) attempting and/or

-275-

required to obtain such Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency has made a request to any Rating Agency for such Rating Agency Confirmation and, within ten (10) Business Days of the Rating Agency Confirmation request being posted to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, such Rating Agency has not replied to such request or has responded in a manner that indicates that such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then such RAC Requesting Party shall be required to confirm (through direct communication and not by posting any confirmation on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website) that the applicable Rating Agency has received the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and, if it has not, promptly request the related Rating Agency Confirmation again (which may be through direct communication). The circumstances described in the preceding sentence are referred to in this Agreement as a “RAC No-Response Scenario.” Once the RAC Requesting Party has sent a request for a Rating Agency Confirmation to the 17g-5 Information Provider, such RAC Requesting Party, may, but shall not be obligated to send such request directly to the Rating Agencies in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 13.10(d).

If there is no response to such Rating Agency Confirmation request within five (5) Business Days of such second request in a RAC No-Response Scenario or if such Rating Agency has responded in a manner that indicates such Rating Agency is neither reviewing such request nor waiving the requirement for Rating Agency Confirmation, then (x) with respect to any condition in any Mortgage Loan document requiring such Rating Agency Confirmation or with respect to any other matter under this Agreement relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than as set forth in clause (y) below), the requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) with respect to such Rating Agency and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may then take such action if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, confirms its original determination (made prior to making such request) that taking the action with respect to which it requested the Rating Agency Confirmation would still be consistent with the Servicing Standard, and (y) with respect to a replacement of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, such condition shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist) if (i) the replacement master servicer or special servicer is listed on S&P’s Select Servicer List as a “U.S. Commercial Mortgage Master Servicer” or “U.S. Commercial Mortgage Special Servicer,” as applicable, if S&P is the non-responding Rating Agency, (ii) the replacement master servicer or special servicer is rated at least “CMS3” (in the case of the master servicer) or “CSS3” (in the case of the special servicer), if Fitch is the non-responding Rating Agency or (iii) KBRA has not publicly cited servicing concerns with respect to the applicable replacement master servicer or special servicer as the sole or a material factor in any qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings (or placement on “watch status” in contemplation of a ratings downgrade or withdrawal) of securities in any other commercial mortgage-backed securitization transaction serviced by such replacement master servicer or special servicer prior to the time of determination, if KBRA is the non-responding Rating Agency.

Any Rating Agency Confirmation request made by the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, shall be made in writing, which writing shall contain a cover page indicating the nature of the Rating Agency Confirmation request, and shall contain all back-up material necessary for the Rating Agency to process such request. Such written Rating Agency Confirmation request shall be

-276-

provided in electronic format to the 17g-5 Information Provider, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall post such request on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

Promptly following the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s determination to take any action discussed in this Section 3.25(a) following any requirement to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation being deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist), the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide electronic written notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider of the action taken for the particular item at such time, and the 17g-5 Information Provider shall promptly post such notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.25, for purposes of the provisions of any Mortgage Loan document relating to defeasance (including without limitation the type of collateral acceptable for use as defeasance collateral) or release or substitution of any collateral, any Rating Agency Confirmation requirement in the Mortgage Loan documents for which the Master Servicer or Special Servicer would have been permitted to waive obtaining or to make a determination with respect to such Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to Section 3.25(a) shall be deemed not to apply (as if such requirement did not exist).

(c)               For all other matters or actions not specifically discussed in Section 3.25(a) above as to which a Rating Agency Confirmation is required, the applicable RAC Requesting Party shall deliver Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency.

Section 3.26        The Operating Advisor. (a)  The Operating Advisor shall review (i) the actions of the Special Servicer with respect to any Specially Serviced Loans (other than a Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan) and, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event exists, any Major Decisions with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) (which review shall be performed in accordance with Section 3.08(a), Section 3.08(b), Section 3.18(b), Section 3.19(d), Section 3.26 and Section 6.08), (ii) all reports by the Special Servicer made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website and that are relevant to the Operating Advisor’s obligations hereunder and (iii) each Asset Status Report (after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event) and (iv) each Final Asset Status Report delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer. The Operating Advisor shall perform its duties hereunder in accordance with the Operating Advisor Standard. Furthermore, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligation or responsibility at any time to review or assess the actions of the Master Servicer for compliance with the Servicing Standard, and the Operating Advisor will not be required to consider such Master Servicer actions in connection with any Operating Advisor Annual Report.

(b)               The Operating Advisor and its Affiliates will be obligated to keep confidential any information appropriately labeled as “Privileged Information” and any information that appears on its face to be Privileged Information received from the Special Servicer or Directing Certificateholder in connection with the Directing Certificateholder’s exercise of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with the review and/or approval of any Asset Status Report), subject to any Privileged Information Exception or law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree requiring the disclosure of such

-277-

Privileged Information. Subject to the terms and conditions in this Agreement related to Privileged Information, the Operating Advisor agrees that it shall use information received from the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement solely for purposes of complying with its duties and obligations hereunder.

(c)               (i)  Based on the Operating Advisor’s review of (x) any assessment of compliance report, attestation report and other information (other than any communications between the Directing Certificateholder and the Special Servicer that would be Privileged Information) delivered to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer or made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s website delivered during the prior calendar year, (y) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, any related Final Asset Status Report or approved or deemed approved Major Decision Reporting Package provided to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer, and (z) after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, any Asset Status Report and any Major Decision Reporting Package provided to the Operating Advisor with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Operating Advisor shall ((i) if any Mortgage Loans (other than the Serviced AB Whole Loan prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period) were Specially Serviced Loans at any time during the prior calendar year and a Final Asset Status Report was delivered to the Operating Advisor or (ii) if the Operating Advisor was entitled to consult with the Special Servicer with respect to any Major Decision) deliver to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider within one hundred twenty (120) days of the end of the prior calendar year, an annual report (the “Operating Advisor Annual Report”), substantially in the form of Exhibit V (which form may be modified or altered as to either its organization or content by the Operating Advisor, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement including, without limitation, provisions herein relating to Privileged Information; provided, however, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in the Operating Advisor Annual Report contravene any provision of this Agreement), setting forth whether the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer is operating in compliance with the Servicing Standard with respect to its performance of its duties pursuant to this Agreement with respect to Specially Serviced Loans (and, after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, with respect to Major Decisions on Non-Specially Serviced Loans) during the prior calendar year on an Trust-Level Basis and identifying (1) which, if any, standards the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, the Special Servicer has failed to comply and (2) any material deviations from the Special Servicer’s obligations hereunder with respect to the resolution and liquidation of Specially Serviced Loans that the Special Servicer is responsible for servicing under this Agreement; provided, further, however, that in the event the Special Servicer is replaced, the Operating Advisor Annual Report shall only relate to the special servicer that was acting as Special Servicer as of December 31 in the prior calendar year and is continuing in such capacity through the date of such Operating Advisor Annual Report; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall prepare a separate Operating Advisor Annual Report relating to each Excluded Special Servicer and any Excluded Special Servicer Loan(s) serviced by such Excluded Special Servicer. In preparing any Operating Advisor Annual Report, the Operating Advisor shall not be required to report on instances of non-compliance with, or deviation from, the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement that the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion

-278-

exercised in good faith, to be immaterial, and will not be required to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, no Operating Advisor Annual Report will be permitted to include an assessment of the Special Servicer’s performance in respect of such Serviced AB Whole Loan until after the occurrence and during the continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period under the related Intercreditor Agreement. Subject to the restrictions in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.26(d) hereof, each such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall (A) identify any material deviations (i) from the Servicing Standard and (ii) from the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement with respect to the resolution or liquidation of Specially Serviced Loans or REO Properties that the Special Servicer is responsible for servicing under this Agreement (other than with respect to any REO Property related to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or Servicing Shift Mortgage Loan) and (B) comply with all of the confidentiality requirements described in this Agreement regarding Privileged Information (subject to any permitted exceptions). Such Operating Advisor Annual Report shall be delivered to the Trustee, the Special Servicer, Certificate Administrator (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b)) and the 17g-5 Information Provider (which shall promptly post such Operating Advisor Annual Report on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c)); provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall be given an opportunity to review the Operating Advisor Annual Report at least five (5) Business Days prior to its delivery to the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider. The Operating Advisor shall have no obligation to adopt any comments to the Operating Advisor Annual Report that are provided by the Special Servicer.

(ii)                                  In the event the Operating Advisor’s ability to perform its obligations in respect of the Operating Advisor Annual Report is limited or prohibited due to the failure of a party hereto to timely deliver information required to be delivered to the Operating Advisor or because such information is inaccurate or incomplete, the Operating Advisor shall set forth such limitations or prohibitions in the related Operating Advisor Annual Report, and the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from such limitations or prohibitions. The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the accuracy and completeness of any information it is provided without liability for any such reliance hereunder. In the event a lack of access to Privileged Information limits or prohibits the Operating Advisor from performing its duties under this Agreement, the Operating Advisor shall set forth any such limitations or prohibitions in the related Operating Advisor Annual Report, and the Operating Advisor shall not be subject to any liability arising from its lack of access to Privileged Information.

(d)               [RESERVED].

(e)               (i)  With respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan, after the calculation has been finalized (and, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, prior to the utilization by the Special Servicer) of any of the calculations related to (i) Appraisal Reduction Amounts or Collateral Deficiency Amounts calculated by the Special Servicer or (ii) net present value in accordance with Section 1.02(iv), the Special Servicer shall forward such calculations, together with any supporting material or additional information necessary in support thereof (including

-279-

such additional information either in the Special Servicer’s possession or reasonably obtainable by the Special Servicer and reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor to confirm the mathematical accuracy of such calculations, but not including any Privileged Communications), to the Operating Advisor promptly, but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after preparing such calculations, and the Operating Advisor shall promptly, but no later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of such calculations and any supporting or additional materials, recalculate and review for accuracy and consistency with this Agreement the mathematical calculations and the corresponding application of the non-discretionary portion of the applicable formulas required to be utilized in connection with any such calculation.

(ii)                                 In connection with this Section 3.26(e), in the event the Operating Advisor does not agree with the mathematical calculations of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount (each as calculated by the Special Servicer) or net present value or the application of the applicable non-discretionary portions of the formula required to be utilized for such calculation, the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer shall consult with each other in order to resolve any material inaccuracy in the mathematical calculations or the application of the non-discretionary portions of the related formula in arriving at those mathematical calculations or any disagreement within five (5) Business Days of delivery of such calculations. In the event the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer are not able to resolve such inaccuracies or disagreement prior to the end of such five (5) Business Day period, the Operating Advisor shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator of such disagreement and the Certificate Administrator shall examine the calculations and supporting materials provided by the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer and determine which calculation is to apply (and shall provide prompt written notice of such determination to the Operating Advisor and the Special Servicer).

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor’s review will be limited to an after-the-action review of any assessment of compliance, attestation report, Major Decision Reporting Package relating to a Specially Serviced Loan, Asset Status Report, Final Asset Status Report and other information delivered to the Operating Advisor by the applicable Special Servicer or made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the Certificate Administrator’s Website during the prior calendar year (together with any additional information and material reviewed by the Operating Advisor), and, therefore, it shall have no specific involvement with respect to collateral substitutions, assignments, workouts, modifications, consents, waivers, lockbox management, insurance policies, borrower substitutions, lease changes, additional borrower debt, defeasances, property management changes, releases from escrow, assumptions and other similar actions that such Special Servicer may perform under this Agreement and will have no obligations at any time with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan. In addition, with respect to the Operating Advisor’s review of net present value calculations, Appraisal Reduction Amounts or Collateral Deficiency Amounts, as required in Section 3.26(e) above, the Operating Advisor’s recalculation shall not take into account the reasonableness of Special Servicer’s property and borrower performance assumptions or other similar discretionary portions of the net present value calculation, Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable.

-280-

(g)               The Operating Advisor and its Affiliates shall keep all information appropriately labeled as “Privileged Information” and any information that appears on its face to be Privileged Information confidential and shall not, without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and (for so long as no Control Termination Event is continuing) the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Non-Serviced Whole Loan and other than any Excluded Loan) disclose such information to any other Person (including any Certificateholders other than the Directing Certificateholder), other than (1) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information, (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception or (3) where necessary to support specific findings or conclusions concerning allegations of deviations from the Servicing Standard or the Special Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement (i) in the Operating Advisor Annual Report or (ii) in connection with a recommendation by the Operating Advisor to replace the Special Servicer. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any other Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and, unless a Consultation Termination Event has occurred, the Directing Certificateholder (with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any Excluded Loan as to such party) other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. In addition and for the avoidance of doubt, while the Operating Advisor may serve in a similar capacity with respect to Other Securitizations that involve the same parties or borrower involved in this securitization, the knowledge of the employees performing operating advisor functions for such Other Securitizations shall not be imputed to the employees of the Operating Advisor involved in this securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall be permitted to share Privileged Information with its Affiliates and any subcontractors of the Operating Advisor that agree in writing to be bound by the same confidentiality provisions applicable to the Operating Advisor.

(h)               Subject to the requirements of confidentiality imposed on the Operating Advisor herein (including without limitation in respect of Privileged Information), the Operating Advisor shall respond to Inquiries proposed by Privileged Persons from time to time in accordance with the terms of Section 4.07(a).

(i)                 As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Operating Advisor shall be entitled to receive the Operating Advisor Fee on each Distribution Date with respect to each Mortgage Loan (including the Non-Serviced Mortgage Loans and any Companion Loan) or each REO Loan. As to each Mortgage Loan, and each REO Loan, the Operating Advisor Fee shall accrue from time to time at the Operating Advisor Fee Rate and shall be computed on the basis of the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan (including each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, but excluding any Companion Loan) or REO Loan, as the case may be, and in the same manner as interest is calculated on the related Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, and, in connection with any partial month interest payment, for the same period respecting which any related interest payment due on the related Mortgage Loan or deemed to be due on such REO Loan is computed.

The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to reimbursement of any Operating Advisor Expenses provided for pursuant to Section 6.04(a) and/or 6.04(b) hereof, such amounts to be reimbursed from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account as provided by

-281-

Section 3.05(a). Each successor Operating Advisor shall be required to acknowledge and agree to the terms of the preceding sentence.

In addition, the Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable to the Operating Advisor with respect to each Major Decision for which the Operating Advisor has consultation obligations hereunder. The Operating Advisor Consulting Fee shall be payable from funds on deposit in the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.05(a)(ii) of this Agreement, but, with respect to the period when the outstanding Certificate Balances of the Control Eligible Certificates have not been reduced to zero as a result of the allocation of Realized Losses to such Certificates, only to the extent such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee is actually received from the related Mortgagor. When the Operating Advisor has consultation obligations with respect to a Major Decision under this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to collect the applicable Operating Advisor Consulting Fee from the related Mortgagor in connection with such Major Decision that are consistent with the efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, would use to collect any Mortgagor-paid fee not specified in the Mortgage Loan documents owed to it, and to the extent not prohibited by the related Mortgage Loan documents. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, may waive or reduce the amount of any Operating Advisor Consulting Fee payable by the related Mortgagor if it determines that such full or partial waiver is in accordance with the Servicing Standard, but in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer take any enforcement action with respect to the collection of such Operating Advisor Consulting Fee other than requests for collection; provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult, on a non-binding basis, with the Operating Advisor prior to any such waiver or reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligations or consultation rights as Operating Advisor with respect to: (i) any Non-Serviced Whole Loan or any related REO Property or (ii) with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of both an AB Control Appraisal Period and a Control Termination Event; provided, further, that the Operating Advisor shall not be entitled to an Operating Advisor Consulting Fee with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which the Operating Advisor does not have related consultation obligations under this Agreement.

(j)                 After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Operating Advisor may be removed upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of Classes to which such Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts are allocable) requesting a vote to replace the Operating Advisor with a replacement Operating Advisor selected by such Certificateholders (provided that the proposed replacement Operating Advisor is an Eligible Operating Advisor), (ii) payment by such requesting Holders to the Certificate Administrator of all reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote and (iii) receipt by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (which confirmations will be obtained by the Certificate Administrator at the expense of such Holders and will not constitute an additional expense of the Trust). The Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders of such request by posting such notice

-282-

on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b), and concurrently by mail, and conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard. Upon the vote or written direction of Holders evidencing at least 75% of the Voting Rights, the Trustee shall immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including accrued and unpaid compensation) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination)) by prior written notice to the replacement Operating Advisor, and the proposed successor operating advisor will be appointed.

(k)               After the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Termination Event, the Trustee may, and upon the written direction of Certificateholders representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balance of the Classes of Certificates), the Trustee shall promptly terminate the Operating Advisor for cause and appoint a replacement Operating Advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor; provided that no such termination shall be effective until a successor operating advisor has been appointed and has assumed all of the obligations of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement. No such termination shall terminate, change, reduce, or otherwise modify the rights and obligations of the Operating Advisor that accrued prior to such termination, including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement, and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination). The Trustee may rely on a certification by the replacement Operating Advisor that it is an Eligible Operating Advisor. Upon any termination of the Operating Advisor and appointment of a successor to the Operating Advisor, the Trustee will, as soon as possible, be required to give written notice of the termination and appointment to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the 17g-5 Information Provider, the Depositor, the Directing Certificateholder (but only if no Control Termination Event or Consultation Termination Event has occurred), the Risk Retention Consultation Party, any Companion Holder and the Certificateholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee is unable to find a successor operating advisor within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Operating Advisor, the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement. The Trustee shall not be liable for any failure to identify and appoint a successor operating advisor so long as the Trustee uses commercially reasonable efforts to conduct a search for a successor operating advisor and such failure is not a result of the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the performance of its obligations hereunder.

(l)                 The holders of Certificates representing at least 25% of the Voting Rights affected by any Operating Advisor Termination Event hereunder may waive such Operating Advisor Termination Event within twenty (20) days of the receipt of notice from the Certificate Administrator of the occurrence of such Operating Advisor Termination Event. Upon any such waiver of an Operating Advisor Termination Event, such Operating Advisor Termination Event shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. Upon any such waiver of an Operating Advisor Termination Event by Certificateholders, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with enforcement action taken with respect to such Operating Advisor Termination Event prior to such waiver from the Trust.

-283-

(m)             Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder shall have the right to consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, to the identity of any replacement Operating Advisor appointed pursuant to this Section 3.26; provided, further, that such consent will be deemed to have been granted if no objection is made within ten (10) Business Days following the Directing Certificateholder’s receipt of the request for consent and, if granted or deemed granted, such consent cannot thereafter be revoked or withdrawn.

(n)               The Operating Advisor may resign from its obligations and duties hereby imposed on it (a) upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Risk Retention Consultation Party and the Directing Certificateholder, if applicable, and (b) upon the appointment of, and the acceptance of such appointment by, a successor operating advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor and receipt by the Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency. If no successor operating advisor has been so appointed and accepted the appointment within thirty (30) days after the notice of resignation, the resigning Operating Advisor may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor operating advisor that is an Eligible Operating Advisor. No such resignation by the Operating Advisor shall become effective until the replacement Operating Advisor shall have assumed the resigning Operating Advisor’s responsibilities and obligations. The resigning Operating Advisor shall pay all costs and expenses (including costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) associated with a transfer of its duties pursuant to this Section 3.26.

(o)               [RESERVED].

(p)               In the event the Operating Advisor resigns or is otherwise terminated for any reason it shall remain entitled to any accrued and unpaid Operating Advisor Fees and Operating Advisor Consulting Fees and reimbursement of accrued and unpaid Operating Advisor Expenses pursuant to Section 3.26(i) and shall also remain entitled to any rights of indemnification provided hereunder.

(q)               The parties hereto agree, and the Certificateholders by their acceptance of their Certificates shall be deemed to have agreed, that (i) subject to Section 6.04, the Operating Advisor shall have no liability to any Certificateholder for any actions taken or for refraining from taking any actions under this Agreement, (ii) the Operating Advisor shall act solely as a contracting party to the extent set forth in this Agreement, (iii) the Operating Advisor shall have no (A) fiduciary duty, or (B) other duty except with respect to its specific obligations under this Agreement, and shall have no duty or liability to any particular Class of Certificates, particular Certificateholders or any third party, and (iv) the Operating Advisor does not constitute an “investment adviser” within the meaning of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended or a “broker” or “dealer” within the meaning of the Exchange Act.

(r)                Neither the Operating Advisor nor any of its Affiliates shall make any investment in any Class of Certificates; provided, however, that such prohibition shall not apply to (i) riskless principal transactions effected by a broker dealer Affiliate of the Operating Advisor or (ii) investments by an Affiliate of the Operating Advisor if the Operating Advisor and such

-284-

Affiliate maintain policies and procedures that (A) segregate personnel involved in the activities of the Operating Advisor under this Agreement from personnel involved in such Affiliate’s investment activities and (B) prevent such Affiliate and its personnel from gaining access to information regarding the Trust and the Operating Advisor and its personnel from gaining access to such Affiliate’s information regarding its investment activities.

(s)                The Operating Advisor shall at all times be an Eligible Operating Advisor and if the Operating Advisor ceases to be an Eligible Operating Advisor, the Operating Advisor shall immediately resign under Section 3.26(n) of this Agreement and the Trustee shall appoint a successor operating advisor subject to and in accordance with this Section 3.26. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee is unable to find a successor operating advisor within 30 days of the termination of the Operating Advisor, the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement.

(t)                 With respect to the determination of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, or has terminated, the Operating Advisor is entitled to rely solely on its receipt from the Certificate Administrator of notice thereof pursuant to this Agreement (which includes notices posted to the Certificate Administrator’s Website), and, with respect to any obligations of the Operating Advisor that are performed only after the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Operating Advisor shall have no obligation to perform any such duties until the receipt of such notice or actual knowledge of the occurrence of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event.

(u)               The Operating Advisor may delegate its duties to agents or Subcontractors to the extent such agents or Subcontractors satisfy clauses (c), (d) and (f) of the definition of “Eligible Operating Advisor” and so long as the related agreements or arrangements with such agents or Subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Agreement related to the Operating Advisor’s duties and obligations; provided that no agent or Subcontractor may (i) be affiliated with a Sponsor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates or (ii) have been paid any fees, compensation or other remuneration by an Underwriter, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with due diligence or other services with respect to any Mortgage Loan prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Operating Advisor shall remain obligated and primarily liable for its obligations hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability or related obligation or liability by virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as its agents or Subcontractor to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Operating Advisor alone were performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Operating Advisor shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with any agent or Subcontractor providing for indemnification of the Operating Advisor by such agent or Subcontractor, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

Section 3.27        Companion Paying Agent. (a)  With respect to each of the Serviced Companion Loans the Master Servicer shall be the Companion Paying Agent

-285-

hereunder. The Companion Paying Agent undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement.

(b)               No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Companion Paying Agent from liability for its negligent failure to act, bad faith or its own willful misfeasance; provided, however, that the duties and obligations of the Companion Paying Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement. The Companion Paying Agent shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Companion Paying Agent. In the absence of bad faith on the part of the Companion Paying Agent, the Companion Paying Agent may conclusively rely, as to the truth and correctness of the statements or conclusions expressed therein, upon any resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instrument furnished to the Companion Paying Agent by any Person and which on their face do not contradict the requirements of this Agreement.

The Companion Paying Agent shall maintain a register (the “Companion Register”) with respect to each Serviced Companion Loan on which it will record the names and address of, and wire transfer instructions for, the related Serviced Companion Noteholders from time to time, to the extent such information is provided in writing to it by each Serviced Companion Noteholder. The initial Serviced Companion Noteholders, along with their respective name and address, are listed on Exhibit S hereto.

Under the Risk Retention Rule, any Subsequent Third Party Purchaser is prohibited from being Risk Retention Affiliated with, among other persons, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer.

Section 3.32        [Reserved]. 

Section 3.33        Delivery of Excluded Information to the Certificate Administrator. (a) Any Excluded Information that the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor identifies and delivers to the Certificate Administrator for posting to the Certificate Administrator’s Website shall be delivered to the Certificate Administrator via e-mail (or such other electronic means as is mutually acceptable to the parties) in one or more separate files labeled “Excluded Information” followed by the applicable loan name and loan file to CCTCMBSExcludedInformation@computershare.com.

reasonably request and obtain such information in accordance with Section 3.13(a) and Section 4.02(f) of this Agreement.

Section 3.34        Certain Matters with Respect to Joint Mortgage Loans.

(a)               If a Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan (a “Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller”) repurchases, or substitutes for, the Mortgage Note(s) (as such term is defined in this Section 3.34(a)) (a “Repurchased Note”) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that it sold to the Depositor, but the other Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan does not repurchase, or substitute for, the Mortgage Note(s) related to such Joint Mortgage Loan that it sold to the Depositor, the provisions of this Section 3.34 shall apply prior to the adoption, pursuant to Section 13.01(l), of any amendment to this Agreement that provides otherwise. Each Mortgage Loan Seller of a Joint Mortgage Loan has agreed pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that the terms set forth in this Section 3.34 with respect to the servicing and administration of such Joint Mortgage Loan shall apply if one or more of the Mortgage Notes related to such Joint Mortgage Loan has been repurchased or, by way of substitution, otherwise removed from the Trust and at least one other Mortgage Note related to such Joint Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust until such time as all of the Mortgage Notes related to such Joint Mortgage Loan are no longer included in the Trust. For purposes of this Section 3.34, Section 13.01(l) and Section 13.08(a) only, “Mortgage Note” shall mean with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan, each original promissory note that collectively represents the Mortgage Note (as defined in Article I) with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and shall not be a collective reference to such promissory notes.

(b)               Custody of and record title under the Mortgage Loan documents with respect to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan shall be held exclusively by the Custodian as provided under this Agreement or, with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Non-Serviced Custodian as provided under the related Non-Serviced PSA, except that the Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall hold and retain title to its original Repurchased Note(s) and any related endorsements thereof.

(i)                                    All of the Mortgage Notes with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Mortgage Note shall have priority or preference over any other portion of the other Mortgage Notes or security therefor. Payments from the related Mortgagor (including, without limitation, any Penalty Charges) or any other amounts received with respect to each Mortgage Note shall be collected as provided in this Agreement by the Master Servicer and shall be applied upon receipt by the Master Servicer pro rata to each related Mortgage Note based on its respective Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). Payments or any other amounts received with respect to the related Repurchased Note shall be held in trust for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and remitted (net of its pro rata share of amounts payable at the Administrative Cost Rate and any other amounts due to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer) to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller or its designee by the Master Servicer on each Distribution Date pursuant to instructions provided by the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and deposited and applied in accordance with this Agreement, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). If any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34

-291-

applies becomes an REO Loan, payments or any other amounts received with respect to any such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be collected and shall be applied upon receipt by the Master Servicer pro rata to each related Mortgage Note based on its respective Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest, subject to Section 3.34(b)(ii). Any Appraisal Reduction Amounts calculated with respect to any Joint Mortgage Loan subject to this Section 3.34 shall be allocated to each related Mortgage Note, pro rata based upon the respective unpaid principal balances thereof.

(ii)                                 If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, receives an aggregate payment of less than the aggregate amount due under any such Joint Mortgage Loan at any particular time, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall receive from the Master Servicer an amount equal to its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such payment. All expenses, losses and shortfalls relating solely to such Joint Mortgage Loan including, without limitation, losses of principal or interest, Nonrecoverable Advances, interest on Servicing Advances, Special Servicing Fees, Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees (including any such fees related to the applicable Mortgage Notes), shall be allocated between the holders of the related Mortgage Notes pro rata based upon the respective unpaid principal balances thereof. In no event shall any costs, expenses, fees or any other amounts related to any Mortgage Loan or Joint Mortgage Loan other than the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan be deducted from payments or any other amounts received with respect to such Joint Mortgage Loan and payable to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller.

(iii)                              A Joint Mortgage Loan that is not a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and to which this Section 3.34 applies shall be serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and the Certificateholders and any Companion Holders pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in accordance with the Servicing Standard and in accordance with the provisions herein as if (A) such Joint Mortgage Loan were a Serviced Whole Loan (and, if such Joint Mortgage Loan is part of a Serviced Whole Loan or Non-Serviced Whole Loan, such Joint Mortgage Loan shall continue to be serviced and administered under the applicable Intercreditor Agreement),, (B) the related Mortgage Note(s) not repurchased were (1) a Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and (2) the only Mortgage Loan that is part of such Joint Mortgage Loan (or related Serviced Whole Loan), and (C) the related Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan. A Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan shall be serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, the Certificateholders and any Companion Holders pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Non-Serviced PSA. No Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be permitted to terminate the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor as servicer, special servicer or operating advisor, respectively, of the related Repurchased Note. All rights of the mortgagee under each such Joint Mortgage Loan shall be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the Trust to the extent of its interest therein and the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller and any Companion Holders in accordance with this Agreement or the Non-Serviced PSA, as applicable.

-292-

(iv)                       The related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be treated hereunder as if it were a Companion Loan holder on a pari passu basis. Other than with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan that is a non-Serviced Mortgage loan, funds collected by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and applied to the applicable Mortgage Notes shall be deposited and disbursed in accordance with the provisions hereof relating to holders of promissory notes comprising Serviced Whole Loans that are pari passu in right of payment. Compensation shall be paid to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Operating Advisor with respect to each Repurchased Note as provided in this Agreement as if each such Repurchased Note were a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or Non-Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, as applicable. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor shall have any obligation to make P&I Advances with respect to any Repurchased Note or, if no related Mortgage Note is part of the Trust, a Servicing Advance with respect to any Repurchased Note. Except as otherwise specified herein, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall have no reporting requirement with respect to any Repurchased Note other than to deliver to the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller any document as is required to be delivered to a holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan or Non-Serviced Pari passu Companion Loan, as applicable, hereunder.

(v)                                Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, with respect to each Joint Mortgage Loan, the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement shall continue to apply to all of the Mortgage Notes comprising such Mortgage Loan, including any Repurchased Note.

(c)               If any non-repurchased Mortgage Note relating to a Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies is a Specially Serviced Loan, then any related Repurchased Note shall also be a Specially Serviced Loan under this Agreement. The Special Servicer shall cause such related Repurchased Note to be specially serviced for the benefit of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement and shall be entitled to any Special Servicing Fee, Workout Fee or Liquidation Fee payable to the Special Servicer under this Agreement as with respect to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(d)               If (A) the Master Servicer shall pay any amount to any Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller pursuant to the terms hereof in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been made or will be received or collected in connection with any or all of the applicable Mortgage Notes and (B) such related payment is not received or collected by the Master Servicer, then the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly on demand by the Master Servicer return such amount to the Master Servicer. If the Master Servicer determines at any time that any amount received or collected by the Master Servicer in respect of any Joint Mortgage Loan to which this Section 3.34 applies must be returned to the related Mortgagor or paid to any other person or entity pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, and such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall promptly on demand by the Master Servicer repay (which obligation shall survive the termination of this Agreement) any portion thereof that the

-293-

Master Servicer shall have distributed to such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Master Servicer may pay to the related Mortgagor or such other person or entity with respect thereto.

(e)               Subject to this Agreement and any Non-Serviced PSA (including, without limitation, the consent and consultation rights of the Directing Certificateholder and any consultation rights of the Operating Advisor or analogous rights under the Non-Serviced PSA), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, on behalf of the holders of any of the Repurchased Notes, shall have the exclusive right and obligation to (i) administer, service and make all decisions and determinations regarding the related Joint Mortgage Loan and (ii) enforce the applicable Mortgage Loan documents as provided hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as applicable, may agree to any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, forgive interest on and principal of, capitalize interest on, permit the release, addition or substitution of collateral securing, and/or permit the release of the related Mortgagor on or any guarantor of any Joint Mortgage Loan it is required to service and administer as contemplated by this Section 3.34, without the consent of the related Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, subject, however, to the terms of this Agreement as they pertain to a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan and any Non-Serviced PSA as they pertain to a pari passu companion loan.

(f)                In taking or refraining from taking any action permitted hereunder, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each be subject to the same degree of care with respect to the administration and servicing of the Joint Mortgage Loans to which this Section 3.34 applies as is consistent with this Agreement and shall be liable to any Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller only to the same extent as set forth herein with respect to any holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan.

(g)               If the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has made a Servicing Advance or the Non-Serviced Trustee, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer has made a servicing advance under the related Non-Serviced PSA with respect to any Repurchased Note which would otherwise be reimbursable to such advancing party under this Agreement or Non-Serviced PSA, and such Advance is determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall reimburse the Trust or Non-Serviced Trust, as applicable, in an amount equal to such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller’s Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such Nonrecoverable Advance with interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be obligated to reimburse the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Serviced Trustee, the Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the Non-Serviced Special Servicer (and amounts due to the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be offset) for Advances or interest thereon or any amounts related to any Mortgage Loans or any other Joint Mortgage Loan other than such amounts relating to the applicable Repurchased Note. To the extent that the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller reimburses any such Nonrecoverable Advances and such amounts are subsequently recovered, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall receive a reimbursement from such recovery based on its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of such recovery. This reimbursement right shall

-294-

not limit the Trustee’s, the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s rights to reimbursement under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the total liability of each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not exceed an amount equal to its Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest of the amount to be reimbursed.

(h)               Each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the right to assign the related Repurchased Note; provided that the assignee of the related Repurchased Note shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

(i)                 The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, in connection with their servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement, exercise efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to execute and deliver, on behalf of each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller as a holder of a pari passu interest in the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan, any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents and instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by any Mortgage or other security document related to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan on the related Mortgaged Property and related collateral, any and all modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to or with respect to the related Joint Mortgage Loan documents, and any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments with respect to the related Repurchased Note or related Repurchased Notes and the related Mortgaged Property all in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Agreement. Each Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller agrees to furnish, or cause to be furnished, to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer any powers of attorney or other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement related to the applicable Joint Mortgage Loan; provided that such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be liable, and shall be indemnified by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for any negligence with respect to, or misuse of, any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be; and further provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, without the written consent of the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller, shall not initiate any action in the name of such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller without indicating its representative capacity or take any action with the intent to cause and that actually causes, such Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller to be registered to do business in any state.

(j)                 Pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller is required to deliver to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the Mortgage Loan documents related to the applicable Repurchased Note, any requests for release and any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of the related Mortgaged Property or to any legal action or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note(s) or the Mortgage(s) or otherwise available at law or equity with respect to the related Repurchased Note.

(xxiv)                    twenty-fourth, to the Holders of the Class G-RR Certificates, first, (i) up to an amount equal to the aggregate unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class, then, (ii) in an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid interest on the amount

-299-

set forth in clause (i) at the Pass-Through Rate for such Class compounded monthly from the date the related Realized Loss was allocated to such Class until the date such Realized Loss is reimbursed;

(xxv)                       twenty-fifth, to the Holders of the Class H-RR Certificates in respect of interest, up to an amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount of such Class of Certificates for such Distribution Date;

(xxvi)                    twenty-sixth, after the Certificate Balances of the Class A Certificates, Class B Certificates, Class C Certificates, Class D Certificates, Class E Certificates, Class F Certificates and Class G-RR Certificates have been reduced to zero, to the Holders of the Class H-RR Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Balance thereof, up to an amount equal to the Principal Distribution Amount (or the portion thereof remaining after any distributions in respect of the Class A Certificates, Class B Certificates, Class C Certificates, Class D Certificates, Class E Certificates, Class F Certificates and Class G-RR Certificates on such Distribution Date), until the outstanding Certificate Balance of the Class H-RR Certificates is reduced to zero;

If, in connection with any Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator has reported the amount of an anticipated distribution to DTC based on the receipt of payments as of the Determination Date and additional Periodic Payments, Balloon Payments or unscheduled principal payments are subsequently received by the Master Servicer and required to be part of the Available Funds for such Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the Certificate Administrator and the Certificate Administrator will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause DTC to make the revised distribution on a timely basis on such Distribution Date. None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Certificate Administrator shall be liable or held responsible for any resulting delay in the making of such distribution to Certificateholders solely on the basis of the actions described in the preceding sentence.

(b)               On each Distribution Date, each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall be deemed to receive distributions in respect of principal or reimbursement of Realized Loss in an amount equal to the amount of principal or reimbursement of Realized Loss actually distributable to the Holders of the respective Related Certificates as provided in Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(c), and Section 4.01(h) such that at all times the Lower-Tier Principal Amount of each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests is equal to the Certificate Balance of the Class of Related Certificates. On each Distribution Date, each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall be

-300-

deemed to receive distributions in respect of interest in an amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amount in respect of its Related Certificates plus a pro rata portion of the Interest Distribution Amount in respect of (i) in the case of the Class LA1, Class LA2, Class LA5 and Class LASB Uncertificated Interests, the Class X-A Certificates, (ii) in the case of the Class LAS, Class LB and Class LC Uncertificated Interests, the Class X-B Certificates, (iii) in the case of the Class LD and Class LE Uncertificated Interests, the Class X-D Certificates, and (iv) in the case of the Class LF Uncertificated Interests, the Class X-F Certificates, in each case, computed based on an interest rate equal to the excess of the Weighted Average Net Mortgage Rate over the Pass-Through Rate of the Related Certificates and a notional amount equal to its related Lower-Tier Principal Amount, in each case to the extent actually distributable thereon as provided in Section 4.01(a). Amounts distributable pursuant to this paragraph are referred to herein collectively as the “Lower-Tier Distribution Amount”, and shall be made by the Certificate Administrator by deeming such Lower-Tier Distribution Amount to be withdrawn from the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account to be deposited in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account.

As of any date, the principal balance of each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall equal the Certificate Balance of the Related Certificates with respect thereto, as adjusted for the allocation of Realized Losses, as provided in Sections 4.04(b) and 4.04(c). The initial principal balance of each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall equal the respective Original Lower-Tier Principal Amount. The pass-through rate with respect to each Lower-Tier Regular Interest shall be the rate per annum set forth in the Preliminary Statement hereto.

Any amount that remains in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on each Distribution Date after distribution of the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and distribution of Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges pursuant to Section 4.01(d)(iii) shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest (but only to the extent of the Available Funds for such Distribution Date remaining in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, if any).

(c)               While the Certificate Balance of any Class of Certificates is reduced to zero, such Class shall not be entitled to any further distributions in respect of interest or principal other than reimbursement of Realized Losses with interest and other amounts provided for in this Section 4.01.

(d)               (i)  On each Distribution Date, Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges, if any, collected in respect of any Mortgage Loan or REO Loan during the related Collection Period, in each case net of any Liquidation Fees or Workout Fees payable therefrom, shall be distributable as follows: (i) to each of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-5, Class A-SB, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G-RR and Class H-RR Certificates, the product of (A) such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium, (B) the related Base Interest Fraction for such Class of Certificates, and (C) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of principal distributed to such Class of Certificates for that Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all Principal Balance Certificates for that Distribution Date, (ii) to the Class X-A Certificates, the excess, if any, of (A) the product of (I)  such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium and (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of

-301-

principal distributed to the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-5 and Class A-SB Certificates for that Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all Principal Balance Certificates for that Distribution Date, over (B) the amount of such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium distributed to the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-5 and Class A-SB Certificates as described above, (iii) to the Class X-B Certificates, the excess, if any, of (A) the product of (I) such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium and (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of principal distributed to the Class A-S, Class B and Class C Certificates for that Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all Principal Balance Certificates for that Distribution Date, over (B) the amount of such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium distributed to the Class A-S, Class B and Class C Certificates as described above, (iv) to the Class X-D Certificates, the excess, if any, of (A) the product of (I) such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium and (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the amount of principal distributed to the Class D and Class E Certificates for that Distribution Date, and the denominator of which is the total amount of principal distributed to all Principal Balance Certificates for that Distribution Date, over (B) the amount of such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium distributed to the Class D and Class E Certificates as described above, and (v) to the Class X-F Certificates, any remaining portion of such Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium not distributed as described above.

For purposes of the first paragraph of this Section 4.01(d), the relevant “Base Interest Fraction” with respect to any Principal Prepayment on any Mortgage Loan that provides for the payment of a Yield Maintenance Charge or Prepayment Premium, and with respect to any Class of Principal Balance Certificates, shall be a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the greater of (x) zero and (y) the difference between (i) the Pass-Through Rate on such Class of Certificates, and (ii) the applicable Discount Rate and (B) the denominator of which is the difference between (i) the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the applicable Discount Rate. However, (1) under no circumstances shall the Base Interest Fraction be greater than one, (2) if the applicable Discount Rate is greater than or equal to the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan, and is greater than or equal to the Pass-Through Rate on such Class, then the Base Interest Fraction will equal zero and (3) if the applicable Discount Rate is greater than or equal to the Mortgage Rate on such Mortgage Loan, and is less than the Pass-Through Rate on such Class, then the Base Interest Fraction will be equal to 1.0.

For purposes of the preceding paragraph, the relevant “Discount Rate” in connection with any Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge collected on any prepaid Mortgage Loan or REO Loan and distributable on any Distribution Date shall be a rate per annum equal to (i) if a discount rate was used in the calculation of the applicable Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge pursuant to the terms of the relevant Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, such discount rate (as reported by the applicable Master Servicer), converted (if necessary) to a monthly equivalent yield, or (ii) if a discount rate was not used in the calculation of the applicable Prepayment Premium or Yield Maintenance Charge pursuant to the terms of the relevant Mortgage Loan or REO Loan, as the case may be, the yield calculated by the linear interpolation of the yields (as reported under the heading “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Constant Maturities” in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) published by the Federal Reserve Board for the week most recently ended before the date of the relevant prepayment (or deemed prepayment)) of U.S. Treasury constant maturities

-302-

with a maturity date, one longer and one shorter, most nearly approximating the related stated Maturity Date, such interpolated yield converted to a monthly equivalent yield. If Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) is no longer published, the Master Servicer shall select a comparable publication as the source of the applicable yields of U.S. Treasury constant maturities.

(ii)                                  No Yield Maintenance Charges or Prepayment Premium shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates.

(iii)                               All distributions of Yield Maintenance Charges and Prepayment Premiums made pursuant to this Section 4.01(d) shall first be deemed to be distributed from the Lower-Tier REMIC to the Upper-Tier REMIC in respect of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, pro rata, based upon the amount of principal distributed in respect of each such Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests for such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01(b) above.

(e)               On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall withdraw the Gain-on-Sale Remittance Amount for such Distribution Date from the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account (other than amounts with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and deposit in the Distribution Account to reimburse the Holders of the Certificates (in order of distribution priority) (first deeming such amounts to be distributed with respect to the Related Lower-Tier Regular Interests). Amounts paid from the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall not reduce the Certificate Balances of the Classes of Certificates receiving such distributions. Any amounts remaining in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account after such distributions shall be applied to offset future Realized Losses, as applicable, with respect to the Principal Balance Certificates and related Realized Losses in each case allocable to the Regular Certificates. Upon termination of the Trust, any amounts remaining in the Gain-on-Sale Reserve Account shall be distributed on the final Distribution Date to the Holders of the Class R Certificates from the Lower-Tier REMIC in respect of the Class LR Interest.

(f)                All distributions made with respect to each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Except as otherwise specifically provided in Sections Section 4.01(j), Section 4.01(h) and 9.01, all such distributions with respect to each Class on each Distribution Date shall be made to the Certificateholders of the respective Class of record at the close of business on the related Record Date and shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of any such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided the Certificate Administrator with wiring instructions no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent Distribution Dates), or otherwise by check mailed to such Certificateholder at its address in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to such Certificate) will be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

-303-

Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Underwriters shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this Agreement or applicable law.

(g)               Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the Certificate Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of any amount of Realized Losses previously allocated to such Class of Certificates) will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall, no later than the related P&I Advance Determination Date, post on the Certificate Administrator’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(b) a notice in electronic format to the effect that:

(i)                                    the Certificate Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location therein specified; and

(ii)                                  no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after such Distribution Date.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(g) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six (6) months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Certificate Administrator, directly or through an agent, shall take such steps to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning the surrender of their Certificates as it shall deem appropriate and subject to escheatment and other applicable laws. The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust hereunder by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(g).

-304-

(h)               Distributions in reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to the Regular Certificates shall be made in the amounts and manner specified in Section 4.01(a) or Section 4.01(c), as applicable, to the Holders of the respective Class otherwise entitled to distributions of interest and principal on such Class on the relevant Distribution Date; provided that all distributions in reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to a Class of Certificates which has since been retired shall be to the prior Holders that surrendered the Certificates of such Class upon retirement thereof and shall be made by check mailed to the address of each such prior Holder last shown in the Certificate Register. Notice of any such distribution to a prior Holder shall be made in accordance with Section 13.05 at such last address. The amount of the distribution to each such prior Holder shall be based upon the aggregate Percentage Interest evidenced by the Certificates surrendered thereby. If the check mailed to any such prior Holder is returned uncashed, then the amount thereof shall be set aside and held uninvested in trust for the benefit of such prior Holder, and the Certificate Administrator shall attempt to contact such prior Holder in the manner contemplated by Section 4.01(g) as if such Holder had failed to surrender its Certificates.

(i)                 [Reserved.]

(j)                 On the Serviced Whole Loan Remittance Date, with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan, the Companion Paying Agent shall make withdrawals and payments from the Companion Distribution Account for each Companion Loan in the following order of priority:

(i)                                     to pay to the Master Servicer any amounts deposited by the Master Servicer in the Companion Distribution Account not required to be deposited therein;

Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Certificate Administrator shall furnish to each Person who at any time during the calendar year was a Holder of a Certificate, a statement containing the information set forth in clauses (i) and (x) above as to the applicable Class, aggregated for such calendar year or applicable portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder, together with such other information as the Certificate Administrator deems necessary or desirable, or that a Certificateholder or Certificate Owner reasonably requests, to enable Certificateholders to prepare their tax returns for such calendar year. Such obligation of the Certificate Administrator shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be provided by the Certificate Administrator pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time are in force.

Upon receipt of an Asset Review Report Summary from the Asset Representations Reviewer required to be delivered pursuant to Section 12.01(b), the Certificate

-309-

Administrator shall (i) include such Asset Review Report Summary in Item 1B on the Form 10-D in accordance with Section 11.04 for such period in which such Asset Review Report Summary was delivered, and (ii) post such Asset Review Report Summary to the Certificate Administrator’s Website not later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of such Asset Review Report Summary from the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(b)               [Reserved].

(c)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may, at its sole cost and expense, make available by electronic media, bulletin board service or, if applicable, Internet website (in addition to making information available as provided herein) any reports or other information the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is required or permitted to provide to any party to this Agreement, the Rating Agencies or any Certificateholder or any prospective Certificateholder that has provided the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, with an Investor Certification or has executed a “click-through” confidentiality agreement in accordance with Section 3.13 hereof (which may be a licensed or registered investment advisor) to the extent such action does not conflict with the terms of this Agreement (including without limitation, any requirements to keep Privileged Information confidential), the terms of the Mortgage Loans or applicable law. Notwithstanding this paragraph, the availability of such information or reports on the Internet or similar electronic media shall not be deemed to satisfy any specific delivery requirements in this Agreement except as set forth herein. In connection with providing access to the Master Servicer’s Internet website, the Master Servicer shall take reasonable measures to ensure that only such parties listed above may access such information including, without limitation, requiring registration, a confidentiality agreement and acceptance of a disclaimer. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall not be liable for dissemination of this information in accordance with this Agreement, and neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be responsible for any information delivered, produced, or made available pursuant to Sections  3.13 and 4.02(b), other than information produced by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable; provided that such information otherwise meets the requirements set forth herein with respect to the form and substance of such information or reports. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to attach to any report provided pursuant to this subsection, any reasonable disclaimer with respect to information provided, or any assumptions required to be made by such report.

The Special Servicer shall from time to time (and, in any event, as may be reasonably required by the Master Servicer) provide the Master Servicer with such information in its possession regarding the Specially Serviced Loans and REO Properties as may be necessary for the Master Servicer to prepare each report and any supplemental information to be provided by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator. None of the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Depositor shall have any obligation to recompute, verify or recalculate the information provided thereto by the Master Servicer. Unless the Certificate Administrator has actual knowledge that any report or file received from the Master Servicer contains erroneous information, the Certificate Administrator is authorized to rely thereon in calculating and making distributions to Certificateholders in accordance with Section 4.01, preparing the Distribution Date Statement required by Section 4.02(a) and allocating Realized Losses to the Certificates in accordance with Section 4.04.

-310-

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer to disclose any information otherwise required to be disclosed pursuant to this Section 4.02(c) or Section 4.02(d) shall not constitute a breach of this Section 4.02(c) or of Section 4.02(d) to the extent the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer so fails because such disclosure, in the reasonable belief of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, would violate any applicable law or any provision of a Mortgage Loan document prohibiting disclosure of information with respect to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may affix to any information provided by it any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto).

(d)               Upon the written request of a Certificateholder, any beneficial owner of a Certificate, or any prospective purchaser of a Certificate that is a Qualified Institutional Buyer and is designated by a Certificateholder or a beneficial owner of a Certificate as such and, in any case, has delivered an Investor Certification to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, as soon as reasonably practicable, at the expense of the requesting party, the Certificate Administrator shall make available to the requesting party such information that is in the Certificate Administrator’s possession or can reasonably be obtained by the Certificate Administrator as is requested by such Person, for purposes of satisfying applicable reporting requirements under Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Neither the Certificate Registrar, nor the Certificate Administrator shall have any responsibility for the sufficiency under Rule 144A or any other securities laws of any available information so furnished to any Person including any prospective purchaser of a Certificate or any interest therein, nor for the content or accuracy of any information so furnished which was prepared or delivered to them by another.

(e)               The information to which any Certificateholder is entitled is limited to the information gathered and provided to the Certificateholder by the parties hereto pursuant to this Agreement and by acceptance of any Certificate, each Certificateholder agrees that except as specifically provided herein, no Certificateholder shall contact any Mortgagor directly with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(f)                Upon the reasonable request of any Excluded Controlling Class Holder identified to the Master Servicer (in the case of a Non-Specially Serviced Loan) or the Special Servicer (in the case of a Specially Serviced Loan) to the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s reasonable satisfaction (at the expense of such Excluded Controlling Class Holder) and if such information is in the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s possession, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide or make available (or forward electronically) to such Excluded Controlling Class Holder (at the expense of such Excluded Controlling Class Holder) any Excluded Information (available to Privileged Persons through the Certificate Administrator’s Website but not accessible to such Excluded Controlling Class Holder through the Certificate Administrator’s Website on account of it constituting Excluded Information) relating to any Excluded Controlling Class Loan with respect to which such Excluded Controlling Class Holder is not a Borrower Party; provided that, in connection therewith, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer may require a written confirmation executed by the requesting Person substantially in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, generally to the effect that such Person is the Directing Certificateholder, or Controlling Class Certificateholder, will keep such Excluded Information

-311-

confidential and is not a Borrower Party, upon which the Master Servicer or Special Servicer may conclusively rely. In addition, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on delivery from the Directing Certificateholder, or a Controlling Class Certificateholder, as applicable, of an Investor Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit P-1B that such Directing Certificateholder, or Controlling Class Certificateholder is not an Excluded Controlling Class Holder with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Special Servicer referenced in this Section 4.02(f) shall include any applicable Excluded Special Servicer with respect to the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan(s).

Section 4.03        P&I Advances. (a)  On or before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on each P&I Advance Date, the Master Servicer shall (i) remit to the Certificate Administrator for deposit from its own funds into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of P&I Advances, if any, with respect to the Mortgage Loans to be made in respect of the related Distribution Date (ii) apply amounts held in the Collection Account, for future distribution to Certificateholders in subsequent months in discharge of any such obligation to make P&I Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans or (iii) make P&I Advances in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of P&I Advances to be made. Any amounts held in the Collection Account for future distribution and so used to make P&I Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be appropriately reflected in the Master Servicer’s records and replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before the next succeeding P&I Advance Date (to the extent not previously replaced through the deposit of Late Collections of the delinquent principal and/or interest in respect of which such P&I Advances were made). The Master Servicer shall notify the Certificate Administrator of (i) the aggregate amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans for a Distribution Date and (ii) the amount of any Nonrecoverable P&I Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loans for such Distribution Date, on or before two (2) Business Days prior to such Distribution Date. If the Master Servicer fails to make a required P&I Advance by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on any P&I Advance Date, the Trustee shall make such P&I Advance pursuant to Section 7.05 by noon, New York City time, on the related Distribution Date, unless the Master Servicer shall have cured such failure (and provided written notice of such cure to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Distribution Date. In the event that the Master Servicer fails to make a required P&I Advance hereunder, the Certificate Administrator shall notify the Trustee of such circumstances by 4:30 p.m., New York City time, on the related P&I Advance Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the portion of any P&I Advance equal to the CREFC^® Intellectual Property Royalty License Fee for the related Mortgage Loans shall not be remitted to the Certificate Administrator for deposit into the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account but shall be deposited into the Collection Account for payment to CREFC^® on such Distribution Date.

To the extent required under the related Intercreditor Agreement, if a P&I Advance is made with respect to any Mortgage Loan with a related Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, shall notify the Other Servicer and the Other Trustee of the amount of the P&I Advance it made with respect to such Mortgage Loan within two (2) Business Days of making such P&I Advance.

-312-

(b)               Subject to Section 4.03(c) and Section 4.03(e) below, the amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer with respect to any Distribution Date and each Mortgage Loan, shall be equal to: (i) the Periodic Payments (net of related Servicing Fees and, in the case of any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, a fee accruing at the related Non-Serviced Primary Servicing Fee Rate) other than Balloon Payments, that were due on such Mortgage Loan (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any REO Loan (excluding any portion of an REO Loan related to a Companion Loan) during the related Collection Period and delinquent as of the close of business on the Business Day preceding the related P&I Advance Date (or not advanced by any Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer) and (ii) with respect to each such Mortgage Loan that is delinquent in respect of its Balloon Payment as of the P&I Advance Date (including any REO Loan (excluding any portion of an REO Loan related to any other Companion Loan) as to which the related Balloon Payment would have been past due), an amount equal to its Assumed Scheduled Payment therefor. Subject to subsection (c) below, the obligation of the Master Servicer to make such P&I Advances is mandatory, and with respect to any Mortgage Loan (including any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or REO Loan (excluding any portion of an REO Loan related to any other Companion Loan), shall continue until the Distribution Date on which the proceeds, if any, received in connection with a Liquidation Event or the disposition of the REO Property, as the case may be, with respect thereto are to be distributed. No P&I Advances shall be made with respect to any Companion Loan.

(c)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no P&I Advance shall be required to be made hereunder if such P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. With respect to each Serviced Mortgage Loan, if the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee has determined that a P&I Advance or Servicing Advance with respect to such Mortgage Loan would be or has become a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall provide each Other Servicer and Other Trustee written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days of the date of such determination. With respect to each Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer will be required to make its determination (based on information provided by the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer) that it has made a P&I Advance on such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan that is a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance with respect to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan independently of any determination made by the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer, the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer or the Non-Serviced Trustee, as the case may be, under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA in respect of the related Non-Serviced Companion Loan (and if the Special Servicer or the Trustee elects to make and makes such a determination, then it shall make such determination independently of any such determination by such other Person). If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee determines that a proposed P&I Advance with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall provide the applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer and Non-Serviced Special Servicer written notice of such determination within the time period required by the related Intercreditor Agreement. If the Master Servicer receives written notice from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be, that either has determined in accordance with the applicable Non-Serviced PSA with respect to a Non-Serviced Companion Loan, that any proposed advance under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA that is similar to a P&I Advance would be, or any

-313-

outstanding advance under such Non-Serviced PSA that is similar to a P&I Advance is, a nonrecoverable advance, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee may, based upon such determination, determine that any P&I Advance previously made or proposed to be made with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, will be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance. Thereafter, in either case, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall not be required to make any additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan unless and until the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, determines that any such additional P&I Advances with respect to the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan would not be a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance, which determination may be as a result of consultation with the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer, as the case may be, or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall have the sole discretion provided in this Agreement to determine that any future P&I Advance or outstanding P&I Advance would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance.

(d)               In connection with the recovery of any P&I Advance out of the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.05(a), the Master Servicer shall be entitled to pay the Trustee and itself (in that order of priority) as the case may be, out of any amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account (but in no event from any funds allocable to a Serviced Companion Noteholder (unless related thereto), except to the extent permitted pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement), interest at the Reimbursement Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of such P&I Advance from the date made to but not including the date of reimbursement; provided, however, that no interest will accrue on any P&I Advance (i) unless the related Periodic Payment is received after the related Due Date has passed and any applicable Grace Period has expired or (ii) if the related Periodic Payment is received after the Determination Date but on or prior to the related P&I Advance Date. The Master Servicer shall reimburse itself and/or the Trustee, as the case may be, for any outstanding P&I Advance, subject to Section 3.17 of this Agreement, as soon as practicably possible after funds available for such purpose are deposited in the Collection Account. For the avoidance of doubt, the Master Servicer shall make P&I Advances on the basis of the original terms of any Mortgage Loan, including Mortgage Loans subject to forbearance agreements or other temporary deferrals or payment accommodations, unless (a) the terms of the Mortgage Loan have been permanently modified to change or forgive a monetary obligation or (b) such advance has been determined to be non-recoverable.

(e)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall make an advance for Yield Maintenance Charges, Default Interest, late payment charges, Prepayment Premiums, Balloon Payments or any P&I Advance with respect to any Companion Loan or with respect to any cure payment payable by any AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder and (ii) if an Appraisal Reduction Amount has been determined with respect to any Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan, an Appraisal Reduction Amount has been determined in accordance with the related Non-Serviced PSA and the Master Servicer has notice of such Appraisal Reduction Amount) then in the event of subsequent delinquencies thereon, the interest portion of the P&I Advance in respect of such Mortgage Loan for the related Distribution Date shall be reduced (it being herein acknowledged that there shall be no reduction in the principal portion of such P&I Advance) to equal the product of (x) the amount of the interest portion of such P&I Advance for such Mortgage Loan for such

-314-

Distribution Date without regard to this clause (ii), and (y) a fraction, expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which is equal to the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such Distribution Date, net of the related Appraisal Reduction Amount (or, in the case of a Serviced Whole Loan, the portion of such Appraisal Reduction Amount allocated to the related Mortgage Loan), if any, and the denominator of which is equal to the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such Distribution Date. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the Periodic Payment due on the Maturity Date for a Balloon Mortgage Loan will be the Assumed Scheduled Payment for the related Distribution Date.

(f)                In no event shall either the Master Servicer or the Trustee be required to make a P&I Advance with respect to any Companion Loan.

Section 4.04        Allocation of Realized Losses. (a)  On each Distribution Date, immediately following the distributions to be made on such date pursuant to Section 4.01, the Certificate Administrator shall calculate the Realized Loss for such Distribution Date. Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Class of Regular Certificates shall be made by reducing the Certificate Balance thereof by the amount so allocated. Any Realized Losses so allocated to a Class of Regular Certificates shall be allocated among the respective Certificates of such Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby. The allocation of Realized Losses shall constitute an allocation of losses and other shortfalls experienced by the Trust. Reimbursement of previously allocated Realized Losses will not constitute distributions of principal for any purpose and will not result in an additional reduction in the Certificate Balance of the Class of Certificates in respect of which any such reimbursement is made. With respect to any Class of Principal Balance Certificates, to the extent that any Nonrecoverable Advances (plus interest thereon) that were reimbursed from principal collections on the Mortgage Loans (including REO Loans) and previously resulted in a reduction of the Principal Distribution Amount are subsequently recovered on the related Mortgage Loan or REO Property, then (on the Distribution Date related to the Collection Period during which the recovery occurred): (i) the amount of such recovery will be added to the Certificate Balance of the Class or Classes of Principal Balance Certificates that previously were allocated Realized Losses in sequential order according to the priority of payments for the Principal Balance Certificates (and in the case of the Principal Balance Certificates that are Senior Certificates, on a pro rata basis according to the amount of unreimbursed Realized Losses on such Classes), in each case up to the lesser of (A) the unallocated portion of such recovery and (B) the amount of the unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to the subject class of certificates; and (ii) the Interest Shortfall with respect to each affected class of Certificates for the next Distribution Date shall be increased by the amount of interest that would have accrued through the then current Distribution Date if the restored write-down for the reimbursed class of Principal Balance Certificates had never been written down. If the Certificate Balance of any Class of Principal Balance Certificates is so increased, the amount of unreimbursed Realized Losses of such Class of Principal Balance Certificates shall be decreased by such amount.

(b)               On each Distribution Date, the Certificate Balances of the Principal Balance Certificates will be reduced without distribution, as a write-off to the extent of any Realized Losses, if any, allocable to such Certificates with respect to such Distribution Date. Any such write off shall be allocated first, to the Class H-RR Certificates, second, to the Class G-

-315-

RR Certificates, third, to the Class F Certificates, fourth, to the Class E Certificates, fifth, to the Class D Certificates, sixth, to the Class C Certificates, seventh, to the Class B Certificates, eighth, to the Class A-S Certificates, and then, pro rata (based on their respective Certificate Balances), to the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-5 and Class A-SB Certificates, in each case until the remaining Certificate Balances of such Classes of Certificates have been reduced to zero.

(c)               With respect to any Distribution Date, any Realized Losses allocated to a Class of Principal Balance Certificates pursuant to Section 4.04(a) or Section 4.04(b), respectively, with respect to such Distribution Date shall reduce the Lower-Tier Principal Amount of the Related Lower-Tier Regular Interest with respect thereto as a write-off.

(d)               [Reserved].

Section 4.05        Appraisal Reduction Amounts; Collateral Deficiency Amounts. (a)  For purposes of (x) determining the Controlling Class (and whether a Control Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing) and (y) determining the Voting Rights of the related Classes for purposes of removal of the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts (with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, to the extent allocated to the related Mortgage Loan) shall be allocated to each Class of Principal Balance Certificates in reverse sequential order to notionally reduce the related Certificate Balances until the Certificate Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero (i.e., first, to the Class H-RR Certificates, second, to the Class G-RR Certificates, third, to the Class F Certificates, fourth, to the Class E Certificates, fifth, to the Class D Certificates, sixth, to the Class C Certificates, seventh, to the Class B Certificates, eighth, to the Class A-S Certificates, and finally, pro rata based on their respective interest entitlements, to the Senior Certificates (other than the Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D and Class X-F Certificates)).

As of the first Determination Date after a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) becomes an AB Modified Loan, the Special Servicer shall calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent Appraisal obtained by the Special Servicer with respect to such Mortgage Loan, and all other information in its possession relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount determination. Upon obtaining knowledge or receipt of notice by the Special Servicer that a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, the Special Servicer shall (i) promptly request from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer and Non-Serviced Trustee the most recent appraisal with respect to such AB Modified Loan, in addition to all other information reasonably required by the Special Servicer to calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, and (ii) as of the first Determination Date following receipt by the Special Servicer of the appraisal and any other information set forth in the immediately preceding clause (i) that the Special Servicer reasonably expects to receive, calculate whether a Collateral Deficiency Amount exists with respect to such AB Modified Loan, taking into account the most recent appraisal obtained by the Non-Serviced Special Servicer with respect to such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, and all other information in its possession relevant to a Collateral Deficiency Amount determination. Upon obtaining actual knowledge or receipt of notice by any other party to this Agreement that a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan has become an AB Modified Loan, such party shall promptly notify the Master Servicer thereof. The Master Servicer shall deliver to (via electronic delivery) or provide

-316-

access to the Special Servicer with any information in its possession as requested by the Special Servicer that is reasonably required to determine, redetermine, calculate or recalculate any Collateral Deficiency Amount for any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) and any Serviced Companion Loan using reasonable efforts to deliver such information within five (5) Business Days of the Special Servicer’s reasonable request. None of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor or the Certificate Administrator shall calculate or verify any Collateral Deficiency Amount. Upon reasonable prior written request, the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to assist the Special Servicer in obtaining information reasonably required to calculate or recalculate any Collateral Deficiency Amount with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan in the event that the Special Servicer is unsuccessful in obtaining such information from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer or Non-Serviced Trustee.

For purposes of determining the Controlling Class and whether a Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, Collateral Deficiency Amounts allocated to an AB Modified Loan that is a Mortgage Loan will be allocated to each Class of Control Eligible Certificates in reverse sequential order to notionally reduce the related Certificate Balances until the Certificate Balance of each such Class of Control Eligible Certificates is reduced to zero. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining the Controlling Class or the occurrence of a Control Termination Event, any Class of Control Eligible Certificates shall be allocated both applicable Appraisal Reduction Amounts and applicable Collateral Deficiency Amounts (the sum of which shall constitute the applicable Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount), in accordance with this Section 4.05(a).

With respect to any Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, calculated for purposes of determining (i) the Voting Rights of the related Classes for purposes of removal of the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor or (ii) the Controlling Class or the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property shall be determined on an “as is” basis.

The Special Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall notify the Certificate Administrator of the amount of any Appraisal Reduction Amount (which notification shall be made by delivery of the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File in accordance with Section 3.12(d)), any Collateral Deficiency Amount and any resulting Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to each Mortgage Loan, AB Modified Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, if any (which notification shall be satisfied through delivery of such information included in the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File and the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Template included in the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package, or such report mutually agreed upon between Master Servicer and Certificate Administrator, which shall be delivered simultaneously with the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File in accordance with Section 3.12(d)). Based on information in its possession, the Certificate Administrator shall determine from time to time which Class of Certificates is the Controlling Class. The Certificate Administrator shall provide notice of the identity of the Controlling Class as set forth in Section 3.23(m).

-317-

(b)               (i)  The Holders of the majority of Voting Rights of any Class of Control Eligible Certificates that is determined at any time of determination to no longer be the Controlling Class (any such Class, an “Appraised-Out Class”) as a result of an Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount in respect of such Class shall have the right, at their sole expense, to require the Special Servicer to order (or, with respect to a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, require the Master Servicer to request from the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer) a second Appraisal with respect to any Mortgage Loan (or Serviced for which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred or as to which there exists a Collateral Deficiency Amount (such Holders, the “Requesting Holders”). The Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such second Appraisal to be (A) delivered within thirty (30) days from receipt of the Requesting Holders’ written request and (B) prepared on an “as-is” basis by an MAI appraiser (provided that such MAI appraiser may not be the same MAI appraiser that provided the Appraisal in respect of which the Requesting Holders are requesting the Special Servicer to obtain an additional Appraisal). With respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer will be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such second appraisal from the applicable Non-Serviced Special Servicer and to forward such second appraisal to the Special Servicer.

(ii)                                 Upon receipt of any supplemental Appraisal pursuant to clause (i) above, the Special Servicer shall determine, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, whether, based on its assessment of such supplemental Appraisal, any recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount is warranted, and if so warranted shall recalculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, based on such supplemental Appraisal. If required by such recalculation, the Appraised-Out Class shall be reinstated as the Controlling Class and each other Appraised-Out Class shall, if applicable, have its related Certificate Balance notionally restored to the extent required by such recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable. The Holders of an Appraised-Out Class requesting any supplemental Appraisal pursuant to clause (i) above shall refrain from exercising any direction, control, consent and/or similar rights of the Controlling Class until such time, if any, as the Class is reinstated as the Controlling Class (such period beginning upon receipt by the Special Servicer of any request to obtain a supplemental Appraisal pursuant to clause (i) above to but excluding the date on which either (A) the Special Servicer determines that no recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount is warranted or (B) the Special Servicer recalculates the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, based on the supplemental Appraisal and receipt of any information requested by the Special Servicer pursuant to this section, the “Appraisal Review Period”). The rights of the Controlling Class, during each Appraisal Review Period shall be exercised by the next most senior Control Eligible Certificates, if any.

(c)               With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), and each Serviced Whole Loan as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred (unless such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan has become a Corrected Loan (for such purposes taking into account any amendment or modification of such Mortgage Loan, any related Serviced Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan)), the Special Servicer shall (1) within thirty (30) days of each anniversary of the related Appraisal Reduction Event, and

-318-

(2) upon its determination that the value of the related Mortgaged Property has materially changed, notify the Master Servicer of the occurrence of such anniversary or determination and order an Appraisal (which may be an update of a prior Appraisal), the cost of which shall be paid by the Master Servicer as a Servicing Advance or to the extent it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, an expense of the Trust, or conduct an internal valuation, as applicable and, promptly following receipt of any such Appraisal or performance of such valuation (or receipt of any Appraisal obtained in accordance with Section 4.05(b) above), shall deliver a copy thereof to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence of any Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder. Based upon such Appraisal or internal valuation (or any Appraisal obtained in accordance with Section 4.05(b) above) and receipt of information reasonably requested by the Special Servicer from the Master Servicer that is in the possession of the Master Servicer and necessary to calculate the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, the Special Servicer shall determine or redetermine and calculate or recalculate, as applicable, and report to the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and ((i) prior to the occurrence of any Consultation Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder) the Directing Certificateholder, the amount and calculation or recalculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount with respect to such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable, and such report shall be delivered in the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Template format; provided, however, that the Special Servicer shall not be liable for failure to comply with such duties insofar as such failure results from a failure of the Master Servicer to provide sufficient information to the Special Servicer to comply with such duties or failure by the Master Servicer to otherwise comply with its obligations hereunder. Following the Master Servicer’s receipt from the Special Servicer of the calculation of the Appraisal Reduction Amounts, the Master Servicer shall provide such information to the Certificate Administrator in the form of the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File and the CREFC^® Appraisal Reduction Template provided to it by the Special Servicer or such other report or reports mutually agreed upon between the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. Such report shall also be forwarded by the Special Servicer, to the extent the related Serviced Companion Loan has been included in an Other Securitization, to the Other Servicer of such Other Securitization into which the related Serviced Companion Loan has been sold, or to the holder of any related Serviced Companion Loan by the Special Servicer. If the Special Servicer is required to redetermine the Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, such redetermined Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount shall replace the prior Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount, as applicable, with respect to such Mortgage Loan, Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable. Prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder, the Special Servicer shall consult with the Directing Certificateholder with respect to any Appraisal, valuation or downward adjustment in connection with an Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 4.05(b), the Special Servicer will not be required to obtain an Appraisal or conduct an internal valuation, as applicable, with respect to a Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan that is the subject of an Appraisal Reduction Event to the extent the Special Servicer has obtained an Appraisal or conducted such a valuation (in accordance with requirements of this

-319-

Agreement), as applicable, with respect to the related Mortgaged Property within the twelve-month period immediately prior to the occurrence of the Appraisal Reduction Event. Instead, the Special Servicer may use the prior Appraisal or valuation, as applicable, in calculating any Appraisal Reduction Amount or Collateral Deficiency Amount with respect to such Mortgage Loan or related Companion Loan or Serviced Whole Loan; provided that the Special Servicer is not aware of any material change to the related Mortgaged Property having occurred and affecting the validity of such Appraisal or valuation.

The Master Servicer, upon reasonable prior written request, shall deliver or provide access to the Special Servicer with information in its possession that is reasonably required to determine, calculate, redetermine or recalculate any Appraisal Reduction Amount, using reasonable efforts to deliver such information, within five (5) Business Days following the Special Servicer’s reasonable request therefor.

(d)               Any Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), any related Serviced Companion Loan and any Serviced Whole Loan, previously subject to an Appraisal Reduction Amount, which has become a Corrected Loan (for such purposes taking into account any amendment or modification of such Mortgage Loan, any related Serviced Companion Loan and any Serviced Whole Loan, as applicable), and with respect to which no other Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred and is continuing, will no longer be subject to an Appraisal Reduction Amount. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of a Non-Serviced Whole Loan shall be calculated by the applicable party under and in accordance with and pursuant to the terms of the applicable Non-Serviced PSA.

(e)               Each Serviced Whole Loan will be treated as a single mortgage loan for purposes of calculating an Appraisal Reduction Amount with respect to the Mortgage Loan and Companion Loan(s) that comprise such Serviced Whole Loan. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of a Serviced AB Whole Loan will be allocated in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement or, if no allocation is specified in the related Intercreditor Agreement, then, first, to the related AB Subordinate Companion Loan (until its principal balance is notionally reduced to zero by such Appraisal Reduction Amounts) and second, pro rata, between the related AB Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan (if any), based upon their respective Stated Principal Balances. Any Appraisal Reduction Amount in respect of any Serviced Pari Passu Whole Loan will be allocated in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement or, if no allocation is specified in the related Intercreditor Agreement, then, pro rata, between the related Serviced Pari Passu Mortgage Loan and the related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, based upon their respective outstanding principal balances.

(iii)                               Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit by a proposed Transferee under clause (ii) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer to such proposed Transferee shall be effected and such proposed Transfer shall not be registered on the Certificate Register; provided, however, the Certificate Registrar shall not be required to conduct any independent investigation to determine whether a proposed Transferee is a Permitted Transferee.

If the Certificate Administrator does withhold any amount from interest or original issue discount payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder or payee pursuant to federal withholding requirements, the Certificate Administrator shall indicate the amount withheld to such Person. Such amounts shall be deemed to have been distributed to such Persons for all purposes of this Agreement.

(iii)                              Such Certificate Owner understands that, if the purchaser of a Non-Registered Certificate is not a Qualified Institutional Buyer or a non-United States Securities Person, the Non-Registered Certificates purchased by such purchaser may not be transferred in book-entry form and may be transferred in physical form only in compliance with the restrictions in clause (ii)(C) above and no such transfer of the Non-Registered Certificates owned by such Certificate Owner will be permitted unless the purchaser provides certification that the transfer complies with such restrictions, as described in this Section 5.03.

(iv)                             Such Certificate Owner is duly authorized to purchase the Non-Registered Certificates and its purchase of investments having the characteristics of the Non-Registered Certificate is authorized under, and not directly or indirectly in contravention of, any law, rule, regulation, charter, trust instrument or other operative document, investment guidelines or list of permissible or impermissible investments that is applicable to such Certificate Owner.

-336-

with the ERISA Plan’s acquisition of Certificates (unless an applicable prohibited transaction exemption is available (all of the conditions of which are satisfied) to cover the purchase and holding of the Certificates or the transaction is not otherwise prohibited), and (ii) the ERISA Plan fiduciary making the decision to acquire the Certificates is exercising its own independent judgment in evaluating the investment in the Certificates.

If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence of actual notice to the Certificate Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Certificate Registrar shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and interest in the Trust. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 5.04, the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith.

Section 5.05        Persons Deemed Owners. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of any of them, may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, or any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary; provided, however, that to the extent that a party to this Agreement responsible for distributing any report, statement or other information required to be distributed to Certificateholders has been provided an Investor Certification, such party to this Agreement shall distribute such report, statement or other information to such beneficial owner (or prospective Transferee).

Section 5.06        Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses; Special Notices. (a) The Certificate Registrar shall maintain in as current form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders. If any Certificateholder that has provided an Investor Certification (i) requests in writing from the Certificate Registrar a list of the names and addresses of Certificateholders, (ii) states that such Certificateholder desires to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to its rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and (iii) provides a copy of the communication which Certificateholder proposes to transmit, then the Certificate Registrar shall, within ten (10) Business Days after the receipt of such request, afford such Certificateholder (at such Certificateholder’s sole cost and expense) access during normal business hours to a current list of the Certificateholders related to the Class of Certificates held by such Certificateholder. Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees that the Certificate Registrar shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the list of the Certificateholders or the identity of the Directing

-337-

Certificateholder hereunder, regardless of the source from which information was derived. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Depositor shall be entitled to a list of the names and addresses of Certificateholders from time to time upon request therefor.

(b)               (i)  The Certificate Administrator shall include in any Form 10-D any written request received in accordance with Section 11.04(a) prior to the Distribution Date to which the Form 10-D relates (and on or after the Distribution Date preceding such Distribution Date) from a Certificateholder or Certificate Owner to communicate with other Certificateholders or Certificate Owners related to Certificateholders or Certificate Owners exercising their rights under the terms of this Agreement.

It is hereby understood that a disclosure in substantially the following form shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements in the preceding sentence: “On [date], the Certificate Administrator received from [name], a Certificateholder or Certificate Owner, a request to communicate with other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners in the securitization transaction to which this report on Form 10-D relates (the “Securitization”). The requesting Certificateholder or Certificate Owner is interested in communicating with other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners with regard to the possible exercise of rights under the pooling and servicing agreement governing the Securitization. Other Certificateholders and Certificate Owners may contact the requesting Certificateholder or Certificate Owner at [telephone number], [email address] and/or [mailing address].”

(ii)                                  In verifying the identity of any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner in connection with any request to communicate, (i) if the Certificateholder or Certificate Owner is the holder of record with respect to any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall not require any further verification or (ii) if the Certificateholder or Certificate Owner is not the holder of record with respect to any Certificate, the Certificate Administrator shall require no more than (x) a written certification from such Certificateholder or Certificate Owner that it is the beneficial owner of a Certificate and (y) another document confirming ownership of such Certificate (e.g., trade confirmation, account statement, or a letter from a broker-dealer). The Certificate Administrator shall not have any obligation to verify the information provided by any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner in any request to communicate and may rely on such information conclusively. Additionally, any expenses the Certificate Administrator incurs in connection with any request to communicate shall be paid by the Trust.

Section 5.07        Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Certificate Registrar shall maintain or cause to be maintained an office or offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Certificate Registrar in respect of the Certificates and this Agreement may be served.

The Certificate Registrar shall give prompt written notice to the Certificateholders and the Mortgagors of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

Section 5.08        Appointment of Certificate Administrator.

Section 5.09        [Reserved].

Section 5.10        Voting Procedures. With respect to any matters submitted to Certificateholders for a vote, the Certificate Administrator shall administer such vote through the Depository with respect to Book-Entry Certificates and directly with registered Holders by mail with respect to Definitive Certificates. In each case, such vote shall be administered in accordance with the following procedures, unless different procedures are otherwise described herein with respect to a specific vote:

-339-

(a)               Any matter submitted to Certificateholders for a vote shall be announced in a notice prepared by the Certificate Administrator. Such notice shall include the record date determined by the Certificate Administrator for purposes of the vote and a voting deadline which shall be no less than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is distributed. The notice and related ballot shall be sent to Holders of Book-Entry Certificates through the Depository and by mail to the registered Holders of Definitive Certificates. In addition, the notice and related ballot shall be posted to the Certificate Administrator’s Website. Notices delivered in this manner shall be considered delivered to all Holders regardless of whether any Holder actually receives the notice and ballot.

(b)               In connection with any vote administered pursuant to this Agreement, voting Holders shall be required to certify their holdings in the manner set forth on the ballot, unless a specific manner is otherwise provided herein. Holders may only vote in accordance with their Voting Rights. Voting Rights with respect to any outstanding Class of Certificates shall be calculated by the Certificate Administrator in accordance with the definition of Voting Rights as of the record date for the vote. Only Classes with an outstanding Certificate Balance greater than zero as of the record date of the vote shall be permitted to vote. Once a Holder has cast its vote, the vote may be changed or retracted on or before the vote deadline. Any changes or retractions shall be communicated by the Certificateholder to the Certificate Administrator in writing on a ballot. After the vote deadline has passed, votes may not be changed or retracted by any Holder unless the Holder wishing to change or retract its vote holds a sufficient portion of the Voting Rights such that the Holder, by its vote alone, could approve or deny the proposition subject to a vote without taking into consideration the votes cast by any other Holder. Transferees or purchasers of any Class of Certificates are subject to and shall be bound by all votes of Holders initiated or conducted prior to its acquisition of such Certificate.

(c)               The Certificate Administrator may take up to fifteen (15) Business Days to tabulate the results of any vote. The Certificate Administrator shall use its reasonable efforts to resolve any illegible or incomplete ballots received prior to the voting deadline. Illegible or incomplete ballots that are received on the voting deadline or that cannot be resolved by the voting deadline shall not be counted. Promptly after the votes are tabulated, the Certificate Administrator shall prepare a notice announcing the results of the vote. Such notice shall include the percentage of Voting Rights in favor of the proposition, the percentage against the proposition and the percentage abstaining. In addition, the notice will announce whether the proposition has been adopted by Certificateholders. The notice shall be distributed in accordance with the methods described in Section 5.10(a) above. The Certificate Administrator shall also include such notice on the Form 10-D prepared in connection with the distribution period that corresponds with the date such notice is distributed. All vote tabulations shall be final and the Certificate Administrator shall not, absent manifest error, re-tabulate the votes or conduct a new vote for the same proposition.

(d)               Any and all reasonable expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering any vote shall be borne by the Trust. The Certificate Administrator is under no obligation to advise Holders about the matter being voted on or answer questions other than process-related questions regarding the administration of the vote.

-340-

(e)               If any party to this Agreement believes a vote of Certificateholders is needed for some matter related to the administration of the Trust that is not specifically contemplated herein, such party may request the Certificate Administrator to conduct a vote and the Certificate Administrator will conduct the requested vote in accordance with these procedures. Unless specifically provided herein, all such votes require a majority of Certificateholders to carry a proposition.

Section 6.02        Liability of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the respective obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer herein.

Section 6.03        Merger, Consolidation or Conversion of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Special Servicer or the Asset Representations Reviewer. (a)  Subject to subsection (b) below, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as an entity under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, and each will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction in which qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans or Companion Loans and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.

(b)               The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer each may be merged or consolidated with or into any Person, or Transfer all or substantially all of its assets (which may be limited to all or substantially all of its assets related to commercial mortgage loan servicing or commercial mortgage surveillance, as the case may be) to any Person, in which case any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer, shall be the successor of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer (such Person, in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, in each of the foregoing cases, the “Surviving Entity”), as the case may be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper (other than an assumption agreement wherein the successor shall agree to perform the obligations of and serve as the Depositor, the Master

-347-

Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, or the Asset Representations Reviewer, as the case may be, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that with respect to such merger, consolidation or succession, Rating Agency Confirmation is received from each Rating Agency with respect to the Classes of Certificates and, with respect to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, a confirmation is received from each applicable rating agency that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates as described in Section 3.25); provided, further, that if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Operating Advisor enters into a merger and the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, is the Surviving Entity under applicable law, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, shall not, as a result of the merger, be required to provide a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to ratings of the Classes of Certificates or, with respect to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, a confirmation of the rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings; provided, further, that for so long as the Trust, and, with respect to any Companion Loan included as part of the trust in a related Other Securitization, is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor notifies the Depositor in writing (a “Merger Notice”) of any such merger, consolidation, conversion or other change in form, and the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, notifies the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, in writing that the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, has discovered that such successor entity has not complied with its Exchange Act reporting obligations under any other commercial mortgage loan securitization (and specifically identifying the instance of noncompliance), then it shall be an additional condition to such succession that the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, shall have consented (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such successor entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor may remain the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Operating Advisor, as applicable, under this Agreement after (x) being merged or consolidated with or into any Person that is a Prohibited Party, or (y) transferring all or substantially all of its assets to any Person if such Person is a Prohibited Party, except to the extent (i) the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or Operating Advisor, as applicable, is the Surviving Entity of such merger, consolidation or transfer and has been and continues to be in compliance with its Regulation AB reporting obligations hereunder or (ii) the Depositor consents to such merger, consolidation or transfer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If, within sixty (60) days following the date of delivery of the Merger Notice to the Depositor or the depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, the Depositor or depositor in such Other Securitization, as the case may be, shall have failed to notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in writing of the Depositor’s determination, or depositor’s determination, in the case of an Other Securitization, to grant or withhold such consent, such failure shall be deemed to constitute a grant of such consent. If the conditions to the provisions in the second preceding sentence are not met, the Trustee may terminate, and if the conditions set forth in the third proviso of the third preceding sentence are

-348-

not met the Trustee shall terminate, the applicable Surviving Entity’s servicing of the Mortgage Loans pursuant hereto, such termination to be effected in the manner set forth in Section 7.01.

(i)                                     The Asset Representations Reviewer shall keep in full effect its existence and rights as an entity under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, and shall be in compliance with the laws of all jurisdictions to the extent necessary to perform its duties under this Agreement.

(ii)                                  Any Person into which the Asset Representations Reviewer may be merged or consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Asset Representations Reviewer, shall be the successor of the Asset Representations Reviewer hereunder, and shall be deemed to have assumed all of the liabilities and obligations of such Asset Representations Reviewer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the Trustee has received a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to such successor or surviving Person.

The Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer may rely on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and their respective affiliates and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent of any of the foregoing shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses (including without limitation, costs and expenses of litigation and of enforcement of this indemnity and of investigation, counsel fees, damages, judgments and amounts paid in settlement) incurred in connection with any actual or threatened legal or

-349-

administrative action (whether in equity or at law) or claim relating to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loans, the Companion Loans, the Trust or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense: (i) specifically required to be borne thereby pursuant to the terms hereof; (ii) incurred in connection with any breach of a representation or warranty made by it herein; (iii) incurred by reason of bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence in the performance of its obligations or duties hereunder, or by reason of negligent disregard of such obligations or duties; or (iv) in the case of the Depositor and any of its partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees and agents, incurred in connection with any violation by any of them of any state or federal securities law.

Each of the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer conclusively may rely on, and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon, any resolution, officer’s certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, financial statement, agreement, appraisal, bond or other document (in electronic or paper format) as contemplated by and in accordance with this Agreement and reasonably believed or in good faith believed by the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and each of them may consult with counsel, in which case any written advice of counsel or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection with respect to any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel.

(b)               None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal or administrative action (whether in equity or at law), proceeding, hearing or examination that is not incidental to its respective duties under this Agreement or which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability not recoverable from the Trust; provided, however, that each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer may in its discretion undertake any such action, proceeding, hearing or examination that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders (and, in the case of any Serviced Whole Loan, the rights of the Certificateholders and the holders of a Serviced Companion Loan (as a collective whole) taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of such Serviced Companion Loan); provided, however, that if a Serviced Whole Loan and/or the holder of any related Companion Loan are involved, such expenses, costs and liabilities will be payable out of funds related to the applicable Serviced Whole Loan in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement and will also be payable out of the other funds in the Collection Account if amounts on deposit with respect to such Serviced Whole Loan are insufficient therefor. If any such expenses, costs or liabilities relate to a Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, then any subsequent recovery on that Mortgage Loan or Companion Loan, as

-350-

applicable, will be used to reimburse the Trust for any amounts advanced for the payment of such expenses, costs or liabilities. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action, proceeding, hearing or examination and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust, and the Depositor, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent), the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans or the Companion Loan on deposit in the Collection Account (including, without duplication, any subaccount thereof), as provided by Section 3.05(a)(xii).

(c)               Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, agrees to indemnify the Depositor, the Trustee, the related Serviced Companion Noteholders, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent) (in the case of the Special Servicer), the Special Servicer (in the case of the Master Servicer) and the Trust and any partner, director, officer, shareholder, member, manager, employee or agent thereof, and hold them harmless, from and against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees, including any costs of enforcement, and expenses that any of them may sustain arising from or as a result of any willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement or by reason of negligent disregard by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of its duties and obligations hereunder or by reason of breach of any representations or warranties made herein by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable.

Any failure to so notify the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not affect any rights any of the foregoing Persons may have to indemnification under this Agreement or otherwise, unless the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, defense of such claim is materially prejudiced thereby.

-351-

willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, respectively, in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement or by reason of negligent disregard by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, respectively, of its duties and obligations hereunder or by reason of breach of any representations or warranties made herein; provided that such indemnity shall not cover indirect or consequential damages.

(i)                 The applicable Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer, Non-Serviced Certificate Administrator, Non-Serviced Operating Advisor, Non-Serviced Asset Representations Reviewer, Non-Serviced Paying Agent, Non-Serviced Depositor and Non-Serviced Trustee, and any of their respective partners, directors, officers, shareholders, members, managers, employees or agents and the applicable Non-Serviced Trust (collectively, the “Non-Serviced Indemnified Parties”), shall be indemnified by the Trust and held harmless against the Trust’s pro rata share (subject to the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement) of any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and the related Non-Serviced Mortgaged Property (or with respect to the Non-Serviced Operating Advisor and/or Non-Serviced Asset Representations Reviewer, incurred in connection with the provision of services for such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) under the applicable Non-Serviced PSA or this Agreement (as and to the same extent the applicable Non-Serviced Trust is required to indemnify such parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the applicable Non-Serviced Trust pursuant to the terms of the related Non-Serviced PSA and, in the case of the applicable Non-Serviced Trust, to the extent of any additional trust fund expenses with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan under the related Non-Serviced PSA).

(j)                 For purposes of this Section 6.04 and Section 11.12, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, will be deemed not to have engaged in willful misconduct or committed bad faith or negligence in the performance of their respective obligations and duties hereunder or acted in negligent disregard of such obligations and duties if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, fails to follow any terms of any Mortgage Loan documents because the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, determines that compliance with such terms would or potentially would cause an Adverse REMIC Event (for which determination the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer will be entitled to rely on advice of counsel, the cost of which will be reimbursed as an additional expense of the Trust).

The indemnification provided herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination or resignation of the Master Servicer (including in its capacity as Companion Paying Agent, if applicable), the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor or the Asset Representations Reviewer.

Section 6.05        Depositor, Master Servicer and Special Servicer Not to Resign. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.03, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall resign from their respective obligations and duties hereby imposed on each of them except

-354-

upon (a) determination that such party’s duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it or (b) in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, upon the appointment of, and the acceptance of such appointment by, a successor master servicer or special servicer, as applicable, and receipt by the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and a confirmation of any applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities (if any) (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25). Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to clause (a) above shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the resigning party) to such effect delivered to the Trustee and (prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event) the Directing Certificateholder. Unless applicable law requires the resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (as the case may be) to be effective immediately, and the Opinion of Counsel delivered pursuant to the prior sentence so states, no such resignation by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as applicable, shall have assumed the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s, as applicable, responsibilities and obligations in accordance with Section 7.02 and no such resignation by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall become effective until the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 hereof and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. Upon any termination (as described in Section 7.01(c)) or resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pursuant to this Section 6.05, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall have the right and opportunity to appoint any successor master servicer or special servicer with respect to this Section 6.05; provided that, such successor master servicer or special servicer shall not be the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Operating Advisor or one of their respective Affiliates and (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event) such successor special servicer is approved by the Directing Certificateholder, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. The resigning party shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator) associated with a transfer of its duties pursuant to this Section 6.05. Except as provided in Section 7.01(c), in no event shall the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer have the right to appoint any successor master servicer or special servicer if such Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, is terminated or removed pursuant to Section 7.01.

Section 6.06        Rights of the Depositor in Respect of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer hereunder or exercise the rights of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not be relieved of any of their respective obligations hereunder by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and is not obligated to

-355-

supervise the performance of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor or the Special Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise.

Section 6.07        The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer as Certificate Owner. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any Affiliate thereof may become the Holder of (or, in the case of a Book-Entry Certificate, Certificate Owner with respect to) any Certificate with (except as otherwise set forth in the definition of “Certificateholder”) the same rights it would have if it were not the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or an Affiliate thereof.

Section 6.08        The Directing Certificateholder and the Risk Retention Consultation Party. (a) (A) Other than with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan for which the related holder of an AB Subordinate Companion Loan is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all Specially Serviced Loans (other than any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class) and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans (other than any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class), as to all matters constituting Major Decisions and (B) the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall (other than with respect to an Excluded Loan as to such party) be entitled to consult on a strictly non-binding basis with the Special Servicer with respect to any Major Decision (provided that prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the related Mortgage Loan must also be a Specially Serviced Loan). For the avoidance of doubt, any consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation Party under this Agreement shall occur only upon request of the Risk Retention Consultation Party, and any such consultation shall be on a strictly non-binding basis and shall be subject to all limitations with respect to the procedures and timing of such consultation set forth in this Section 6.08. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as set forth in, and in any event subject to, the second and third paragraphs of this Section 6.08, (i) the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to take (A) with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, any “major decision” (as defined in the related Intercreditor Agreement) unless the consent of the related AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder has been obtained by the Special Servicer or (B) any of the following actions irrespective of whether any such Major Decision constitutes a “major decision” under, and as defined in, the related Intercreditor Agreement (each a “Major Decision”) unless it has obtained the consent of the Special Servicer (except as otherwise provided for in the first proviso following the Major Decisions listed below) and (ii) with respect to any Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan or any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class) or any Serviced Whole Loan, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing (such limitation not to be applicable to a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder), the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to take any of the following actions or consent to the Master Servicer’s taking any of the following actions (except as otherwise provided for in the first proviso following the Major Decisions listed below) as to which the Directing Certificateholder has objected in writing (i) with respect to any Major Decision other than pursuant to clause (xi) below, within ten (10) Business Days and (ii) within thirty (30) days with respect to clause (xi) below, in each case, after the Directing Certificateholder’s receipt of the Special Servicer’s written recommendation, which may be in

-356-

the form of an Asset Status Report, and analysis and all information reasonably requested by the Directing Certificateholder, and reasonably available to the Special Servicer in order to grant or withhold such consent, which report may (in the case of a Major Decision processed by the Special Servicer, in the sole discretion of the Special Servicer) take the form of an Asset Status Report (the “Major Decision Reporting Package”) (provided that if such written objection has not been received by the Special Servicer within such ten (10) Business Day or thirty (30) day period, then the Directing Certificateholder will be deemed to have approved such action):

(ii)                                 any modification, consent to a modification or waiver of any monetary term (other than late fees and Default Interest) or material non-monetary term (including, without limitation, the timing of payments and acceptance of discounted payoffs) of a Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan or any extension of the maturity date of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan;

(iii)                              following a default or an event of default with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan, any exercise of remedies, including the acceleration of the Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or initiation of any proceedings, judicial or otherwise, under the related Mortgage Loan documents;

(iv)                              any sale of a Defaulted Loan or REO Property or a defaulted loan that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan that the Special Servicer is permitted to sell, in each case for less than the applicable Purchase Price;

(v)                                any determination to bring a Mortgaged Property or an REO Property into compliance with applicable environmental laws or to otherwise address Hazardous Materials located at a Mortgaged Property or an REO Property;

(vi)                              any release of material collateral or any acceptance of substitute or additional collateral for a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan or any consent to either of the foregoing, other than (1) the release of collateral securing any Mortgage Loan in connection with a defeasance, (2) the acceptance of substitute or additional collateral in the form of non-callable United States Treasury obligations in connection with a defeasance; or (3) immaterial condemnation actions and other similar takings, or if otherwise required pursuant to the specific terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents and for which there is no lender discretion;

(vii)                           any waiver of a “due on sale” or “due on encumbrance” clause with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or

(ix)                                releases of any material amounts from escrow accounts, reserve accounts or letters of credit held as performance escrows or reserves, other than those required pursuant to the specific terms of the related Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or a Serviced Whole Loan and for which there is no lender discretion;

(x)                                   any acceptance of an assumption agreement or any other agreement permitting a transfer of interests in a Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor or releasing a Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor from liability under a Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) or Serviced Whole Loan other than pursuant to the specific terms of such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and for which there is no lender discretion;

(xiii)                         any material modification, waiver or amendment of an Intercreditor Agreement, co-lender agreement or similar agreement with any mezzanine lender or subordinate debt holder related to a Mortgage Loan (other than a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan), or any action to enforce rights (or decision not to enforce rights) with respect thereto, or any material modification, waiver or amendment thereof; provided, however, that any such modification or amendment that would (a) materially increase the scope of the Master Servicer’s obligations under the subject agreement or this Agreement, (b) reduce any compensation due to Master Servicer or modify the obligations of noteholders to pay their pro rata share of compensation due to the Master Servicer, under the subject agreement or

-358-

this Agreement, (c) change the terms related to any advancing obligations or right to reimbursement, including related to reimbursement of advances, or interest on advances, or the obligations of noteholders to pay their pro rata share of such advances or interest thereon, under the subject agreement or this Agreement, (d) modify the Master Servicer’s right to reimbursement of any expense or the obligations of noteholders to pay their pro rata share of expenses as provided for in the subject agreement or this Agreement, or cause the Master Servicer to incur additional expenses other than as provided for in the subject agreement or this Agreement, or (e) modify the timing of reports or remittances required to be delivered by the Master Servicer under the subject agreement or this Agreement, will additionally require the consent of the Master Servicer as a condition to its effectiveness;

(xiv)                         any incurrence of additional debt by a Mortgagor or any mezzanine financing by any beneficial owner of a Mortgagor (to the extent that the lender has consent rights pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents (for purposes of the determination whether a lender has such consent rights pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, any Mortgage Loan document provision that requires that an Intercreditor Agreement be reasonably or otherwise acceptable to the lender shall constitute such consent rights)); or

(xv)                            any determination by the Master Servicer to transfer a Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan under the circumstances described in clause (iv) of the definition of “Servicing Transfer Event”.

provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer and Special Servicer may mutually agree that the Master Servicer shall process and obtain the prior consent of the Special Servicer with respect to any of the Major Decisions with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each be entitled to 50% of any Excess Modification Fees, assumption, consent, loan-service transaction fees and earnout fees (other than assumption application fees, defeasance fees and review fees) paid in connection with such matters, whether or not the Master Servicer processes such request; provided, further, that, in the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by this Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters (or any other matter requiring the consent of (i) the Directing Certificateholder with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event in this Agreement (or any matter requiring consultation with the Directing Certificateholder, the Risk Retention Consultation Party or the Operating Advisor) or (ii) with respect to the Serviced AB Whole Loan, the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period) is necessary to protect the interests of the Certificateholders (or, with respect to any Serviced Whole Loan, the interest of the Certificateholders and the holders of any related Serviced Companion Loan) (as a collective whole (taking into account the subordinate or pari passu nature of any Companion Loans)), the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Directing Certificateholder’s response or the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder’s response (or without waiting to consult with the Directing Certificateholder, the Risk Retention Consultation Party or

-359-

the Operating Advisor, as the case may be); provided that the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, provides the Directing Certificateholder (or the Operating Advisor, if applicable) and the Risk Retention Consultation Party (if applicable) with prompt written notice following such action including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. The Special Servicer is not required to obtain the consent of the Directing Certificateholder for any of the foregoing actions or any other matter requiring consent of the Directing Certificateholder after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event; provided, however, that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but, with respect to the Directing Certificateholder only, prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Special Servicer shall consult with the Directing Certificateholder in connection with any Major Decision not relating to any Excluded Loan (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the Directing Certificateholder prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event hereunder) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Directing Certificateholder, in respect thereof. Additionally, upon request, the Special Servicer shall consult with the Risk Retention Consultation Party on a non-binding basis (provided, that prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the related Mortgage Loan must also be a Specially Serviced Loan) in connection with any Major Decision not relating to an Excluded Loan and consider alternative actions recommended by the Risk Retention Consultation Party in respect thereof. In the event the Special Servicer receives no response from the Directing Certificateholder or the Risk Retention Consultation Party within ten (10) Business Days following its written request for input on any required consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Directing Certificateholder or the Risk Retention Consultation Party on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Directing Certificateholder or the Risk Retention Consultation Party to respond shall not relieve the Special Servicer from consulting with the Directing Certificateholder or the Risk Retention Consultation Party on any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or any other Mortgage Loan. In addition, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event and with respect to any AB Mortgage Loan, after the occurrence and during the continuance of both a Control Termination Event and an AB Control Appraisal Period, the Special Servicer will also be required to consult with the Operating Advisor in connection with any proposed Major Decision (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the Operating Advisor after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event hereunder) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, provided that such consultation is on a non-binding basis. In the event that the Special Servicer receives no response from the Operating Advisor within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) its written request for input on any required consultation and (ii) delivery of all such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor related to the subject matter of such consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Operating Advisor to respond on any specific matters shall not relieve the Special Servicer from its obligation to consult with the Operating Advisor on any future matter with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or any other Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class (regardless of whether a Control Termination Event, a Consultation Termination Event or an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has

-360-

occurred and is continuing), the Special Servicer shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan other than an Excluded Loan, for so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Directing Certificateholder subject to any rights, if any, of the related Companion Holder to advise the Special Servicer with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan, pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement, may direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to a Mortgage Loan, as the Directing Certificateholder may deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made herein; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such direction or objection contemplated by the first paragraph of this Section 6.08(a) or this paragraph, may require or cause the Master Servicer or Special Servicer to violate any provision of any Mortgage Loan or related Intercreditor Agreement or mezzanine intercreditor agreement, applicable law, this Agreement, or the REMIC Provisions (and, with respect to a Serviced Whole Loan, subject to the rights of the holders of the related Companion Loan), including without limitation the obligation of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trust or the Trustee to liability, or materially expand the scope of the responsibilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to act, or fail to act, in a manner which in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is not in the best interests of the Certificateholders.

In the event the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, determines that a refusal to consent by the Directing Certificateholder (or the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, as applicable) or any advice from the Directing Certificateholder, the Risk Retention Consultation Party, the Operating Advisor or the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, as applicable, would cause the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, to violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan, applicable law or this Agreement, including without limitation, the Servicing Standard, the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, shall disregard such refusal to consent or advise and notify the Directing Certificateholder, the Risk Retention Consultation Party, the Operating Advisor or the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, as applicable, the Trustee and the Rating Agencies of its determination, including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis therefor. The taking of, or refraining from taking, any action by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer in accordance with the direction of or approval of the Directing Certificateholder, the Risk Retention Consultation Party, the Operating Advisor or the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder, as applicable, that does not violate the terms of any Mortgage Loan, applicable law or the Servicing Standard or any other provisions of this Agreement, will not result in any liability on the part of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer.

In addition, with respect to any matter for which the consent of the Directing Certificateholder is required or for which the Directing Certificateholder has the right to direct

-361-

the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, to the extent no specific time period for deemed consent is expressly stated, in the event no response from the Directing Certificateholder is received within 10 Business Days following written request for input and all reasonably requested information on any required consent or direction, the Directing Certificateholder shall be deemed to have consented or approved on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Directing Certificateholder to respond will not affect any future matters with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan or any other Mortgage Loan.

The Directing Certificateholder shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that the Directing Certificateholder (exclusive of a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) shall not be protected against any liability to a Controlling Class Certificateholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties owed to the Controlling Class Certificateholders or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations or duties owed to the Controlling Class Certificateholders. By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees that the Directing Certificateholder may take actions that favor the interests of one or more Classes of the Certificates including the Holders of the Controlling Class over other Classes of the Certificates, and that the Directing Certificateholder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of some Classes of the Certificates, that the Directing Certificateholder may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class, including the Holders of the Controlling Class, that the Directing Certificateholder does not have any duties or liability to the Holders of any Class of Certificates other than the Controlling Class except in the case of a Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder, that the Directing Certificateholder shall not be liable to any Certificateholder, by reason of its having acted solely in the interests of the Holders of the Controlling Class, and that the Directing Certificateholder shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Directing Certificateholder or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

The Risk Retention Consultation Party shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall not be protected against any liability to the Holder of the VRR Interest that appointed the Risk Retention Consultation Party that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties owed to such Holder of the VRR Interest or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations or duties owed to such Holder of the VRR Interest. By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees that the Risk Retention Consultation Party may take actions that favor the interests of one or more Classes of the Certificates over other Classes of the Certificates, and that the Risk Retention Consultation Party may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of some Classes of the Certificates, that the Risk Retention Consultation Party may act solely in the interests of the Holder of the VRR Interest, that the Risk Retention Consultation Party does not have any duties or liability to the Holders of any Class of Certificates other than the Holder of the VRR Interest, that the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall not be liable to any Holder of a Certificate other than the VRR Interest by reason of its having acted solely in the interests of the Holder of the VRR Interest, and that the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall

-362-

have no liability whatsoever for having so acted, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against the Risk Retention Consultation Party or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

Any Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan, shall have no liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, or for errors in judgment. By its acceptance of a Certificate, each Certificateholder acknowledges and agrees that any such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan, may take actions that favor the interests of one or more classes of the certificates issued under the related Non-Serviced PSA including the Holders of the controlling class under such Non-Serviced PSA over other Classes of the Certificates, and that such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Holders of some Classes of the Certificates, that such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, may act solely in the interests of the Holders of the controlling class under the related Non-Serviced PSA, that such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, shall not be liable to any Certificateholder, by reason of its having acted solely in the interests of the Holders of the controlling class under the related Non-Serviced PSA, and that such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted, and no Certificateholder may take any action whatsoever against such Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder, with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan, or any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any Excluded Loan and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, the Serviced AB Whole Loan), the Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) shall have no right to consent to or direct any action taken or not taken by any party to this Agreement; (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event but prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder shall remain entitled to receive any notices, reports or information to which it is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and the Master Servicer, Special Servicer and any other applicable party shall consult with the Directing Certificateholder and, with respect to any Specially Serviced Loan, the Risk Retention Consultation Party (in each case, other than with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any Excluded Loan) in connection with any action to be taken or refrained from taking to the extent set forth herein; and (iii) after the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event (and at any time with respect to any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan and any Excluded Loan), the Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) shall have no direction, consultation or consent rights hereunder and no right to receive any notices, reports or information (other than notices, reports or information required to be delivered to all Certificateholders) or any other rights as Directing Certificateholder and, other than with respect to any Excluded Loan, the Risk Retention Consultation Party shall remain entitled to receive any notices, reports or information to which it is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and the Special Servicer and any other applicable party shall consult with the

Risk Retention Consultation Party to the extent set forth herein in connection with any action to be taken or refrained from being taken to the extent set forth herein.

Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the Special Servicer shall provide each Major Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor promptly after the Special Servicer receives the Directing Certificateholder’s approval or deemed approval of such Major Decision Reporting Package; provided, however, that with respect to any Non-Specially Serviced Loan no Major Decision Reporting Package shall be required to be delivered (and the Special Servicer will use reasonable efforts not to deliver such Major Decision Reporting Package) prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event (whether or not a Control Termination Event is continuing), the Special Servicer shall provide each Major Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor simultaneously with the Special Servicer’s written request for the Operating Advisor’s input regarding the related Major Decision (which written request and Major Decision Reporting Package may be delivered in one notice), as set forth in this Section 6.08.

In addition, if an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing, the Special Servicer will also be required to deliver a Major Decision Reporting Package to the Operating Advisor and consult with the Operating Advisor in connection with any proposed Major Decision that it is processing (and any other actions which otherwise require consultation with the Operating Advisor) and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, provided that such consultation is on a non-binding basis. In the event that the Special Servicer receives no response from the Operating Advisor within ten (10) Business Days following the later of (i) its written request for input (which initial request is required to include the related Major Decision Reporting Package) on any required consultation and (ii) delivery of all such additional information reasonably requested by the Operating Advisor that is in possession of the Special Servicer, as applicable, related to the subject matter of such consultation, the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to consult with the Operating Advisor on the specific matter; provided, however, that the failure of the Operating Advisor to respond on any specific matters shall not relieve the Special Servicer from its obligation to consult with the Operating Advisor on any future matter with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan or any other Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any applicable Excluded Loan related to the Directing Certificateholder (regardless of whether an Operating Advisor Consultation Event has occurred and is continuing), the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the related Excluded Special Servicer, as applicable, shall consult with the Operating Advisor, on a non-binding basis, in connection with the related transactions involving proposed Major Decisions that it is processing and consider alternative actions recommended by the Operating Advisor, in respect thereof, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.08 for consulting with the Operating Advisor.

In connection with the Directing Certificateholder’s or Operating Advisor’s right to consent or consult with respect to a Major Decision, as applicable, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer determines that action is necessary to protect a Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Certificateholders from potential harm if such action is not taken, or if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may take actions with respect to such Mortgaged Property before

-364-

the expiration of the applicable period for the Operating Advisor or Directing Certificateholder to respond as described in this section, if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer reasonably determines in accordance with Servicing Standard that failure to take such actions before the expiration of such period would materially adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Operating Advisor or the Directing Certificateholder, as applicable.

After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder (other than any Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder) shall have no consultation or consent rights hereunder and shall have no right to receive any notices, reports or information (other than notices, reports or information required to be delivered to all Certificateholders) or any other rights as Directing Certificateholder. However, the Directing Certificateholder shall maintain the right to exercise its Voting Rights for the same purposes as any other Certificateholder.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time that Argentic Services Company LP or an affiliate thereof is appointed as the Risk Retention Consultation Party and Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer, is processing any action that requires consultation with the Risk Retention Consultation party, Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer, shall not be required to consult with the Risk Retention Consultation Party.

Section 6.09        Knowledge of Computershare Trust Company, National Association. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, Computershare Trust Company, National Association acting in any particular capacity hereunder will not be deemed to be imputed with knowledge of (a) Computershare Trust Company, National Association, acting in a capacity that is unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (b) Computershare Trust Company, National Association, acting in any other capacity hereunder, except, in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), where some or all of the obligations performed in such capacities are performed by one or more employees within the same group or division of Computershare Trust Company, National Association, or where the groups or divisions responsible for performing the obligations in such capacities have one or more of the same Responsible Officers or Servicing Officers, as applicable.

(v)                                 a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator, trustee or similar official in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged, undismissed or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or

(vi)                              the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall consent to the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator, trustee or similar official in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(vii)                            the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations or take any corporate action in furtherance of the foregoing; or

(viii)                         KBRA (or, in the case of Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, any Companion Loan Rating Agency) has (A) qualified, downgraded or withdrawn its rating or ratings of one or more Classes of Certificates or Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, as applicable, or (B) placed one or more Classes of Certificates or Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, as applicable, on “watch status” in contemplation of a ratings downgrade or withdrawal (and such qualification, downgrade, withdrawal or “watch status” placement shall not have been withdrawn by KBRA (or, in the case of Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, any Companion Loan Rating Agency) within sixty (60) days of such rating action) and, in the case of either of clauses (A) or (B), publicly citing servicing concerns with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, as the sole or a material factor in such rating action;

(ix)                                 the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is no longer rated at least “CMS3” or “CSS3”, respectively, by Fitch and such Master Servicer or such Special Servicer, as the case may be, is not reinstated to at least that rating within 60 days of the delisting; or

(x)                                   the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, is removed from S&P’s Select Servicer List as a “U.S. Commercial Mortgage Master Servicer” or a “U.S. Commercial Mortgage Special Servicer,” as applicable, and is not restored to such status on such list within 60 days.

-367-

(b)               If any Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be (in either case, for purposes of this Section 7.01(b), the “Affected Party”), shall occur and be continuing, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, the Trustee or the Depositor may, and at the written direction of ((i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) the Directing Certificateholder (solely with respect to the Special Servicer) or the Holders of Certificates entitled to 25% or more of the Voting Rights, the Trustee shall, terminate (and the Depositor may direct the Trustee to terminate each of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon five Business Days’ written notice if there is a Servicer Termination Event under clause (iii)(A) above), by notice in writing to the Affected Party, with a copy of such notice to the Depositor and the Operating Advisor, all of the rights (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) and obligations of the Affected Party under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof (other than as a Certificateholder or Companion Holder, if applicable); provided, however, that the Affected Party shall be entitled to the payment of accrued and unpaid compensation and reimbursement through the date of such termination as provided for under this Agreement for services rendered and expenses incurred. From and after the receipt by the Affected Party of such written notice except as otherwise provided in this Article VII, all authority and power of the Affected Party under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee with respect to a termination of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to and under this Section 7.01, and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Affected Party, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, each agree that if it is terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(b), it shall promptly (and in any event no later than twenty (20) Business Days subsequent to its receipt of the notice of termination) provide the Trustee with all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, functions hereunder, and shall cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s, as the case may be, responsibilities and rights (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer within five (5) Business Days to the Trustee for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be or should have been credited by the Master Servicer to the Collection Account or any Servicing Account (if it is the Affected Party), by the Special Servicer to the REO Account (if it is the Affected Party) or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property (provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall, if terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(b) or pursuant to Section 7.01(d) (with respect to the Special Servicer), continue to be entitled to receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, whether in respect of Advances (in the case of the Special Servicer or the Master Servicer) or otherwise, and it and its Affiliates and the directors, managers, officers, members, employees and agents of it and its Affiliates shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.11 and Section 6.04 notwithstanding any such termination).

-368-

(c)               If the Master Servicer receives notice of termination under Section 7.01(b) solely due to a Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(viii), Section 7.01(a)(ix) or Section 7.01(a)(x) the Master Servicer shall have a forty-five (45) day period after such notice in which to find a successor master servicer qualified to act as Master Servicer hereunder in accordance with Section 6.03 and Section 7.02 and to which the Master Servicer can sell its rights to service the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement. During such forty-five (45) day period the Master Servicer may continue to serve as Master Servicer hereunder. In the event that the Master Servicer is unable, within such forty-five (45) day period, to cause a qualified successor master servicer to assume the duties of the Master Servicer hereunder, then and in such event, the Trustee shall assume the obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder.

Notwithstanding Section 7.01(b), if any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer shall occur and be continuing that affects the Holder of a Serviced Companion Loan, then, so long as the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated, the Holder of such Serviced Companion Loan or the Other Trustee appointed under the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as applicable, shall be entitled to direct the Trustee to terminate the Special Servicer with respect to the related Serviced Whole Loan. Any Special Servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to a Serviced Mortgage Loan cannot at any time be (without the prior written consent of the holder of such Serviced Companion Loan) the Person (or Affiliate thereof) that was terminated at the direction of the holder of the related Serviced Companion Loan. Any such Special Servicer under this paragraph shall meet the eligibility requirements of Section 7.02 and the eligibility requirements of the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and the appointment thereof shall comply with the provisions of Section 7.02. Any appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this paragraph shall be subject to the receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation and confirmation from the applicable rating agencies that such appointment or replacement will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the then-current ratings of any class of any related Serviced Companion Loan Securities (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25).

(d)               Subject to the rights of the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder pursuant to the related Intercreditor Agreement and other than with respect to any Excluded Loan with respect to the Directing Certificateholder or the Holder of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Directing Certificateholder, at any time prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, shall be entitled to terminate the rights (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement, with or without cause, upon ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor; such termination to be effective upon the appointment of a successor special servicer meeting the requirements of this Section 7.01(d); provided that, with respect to a Servicing Shift Whole Loan (unless the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan), the ten (10) Business Days’ notice set forth in this Section 7.01(d) shall not apply to the related Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder’s right to terminate the Special Servicer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement without cause with respect to such Servicing Shift Whole Loan pursuant to the terms of the related Intercreditor Agreement. Upon a termination of the Special Servicer, the Directing Certificateholder (other than with respect to any Excluded Loan) shall appoint a successor special servicer to assume the

-369-

duties of the Special Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that (i) such successor will meet the requirements set forth in Section 7.02, (ii) each Rating Agency delivers Rating Agency Confirmation and, in the case of any class of any Serviced Companion Loan Securities the applicable rating agencies deliver a confirmation that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25) and (iii) no replacement of the Special Servicer shall be effective until the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 hereof and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. For the sake of clarity, the recommendation of replacement of the Special Servicer by the Operating Advisor and the approval of the Certificateholders of such Qualified Replacement Special Servicer shall not preclude the Directing Certificateholder from appointing a replacement special servicer, provided that such replacement may not be the removed Special Servicer or its Affiliate.

With respect to each Serviced Whole Loan, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, upon (a) the written direction of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the Certificate Balances of such Certificates pursuant to Section 4.05 hereof) of the Principal Balance Certificates requesting a vote to replace the Special Servicer with a new special servicer designated in such written direction, (b) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses (including any legal fees and any Rating Agency fees and expenses) to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote and which will not be additional expenses of the Trust and (c) delivery by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator and Trustee of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (which Rating Agency Confirmation shall be obtained at the expense of such Holders), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice to all Certificateholders of such request on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b) and concurrently by mail conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard, which requisite affirmative votes must be received within one hundred-eighty (180) days of the posting of such notice, and if not so received, such votes shall be null and void ab initio. Upon the written direction of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least 66-2/3% of a Certificateholder Quorum of Certificates, the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and appoint the successor special servicer (which must be a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer) designated by such Certificateholders.

The Certificate Administrator shall include on each Distribution Date Statement a statement that each Certificateholder may (i) access such notices via the Certificate Administrator’s Website and (ii) register to receive electronic mail notifications when such notices are posted thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Certificateholder’s direction to remove the Special Servicer shall not apply to any Serviced AB Whole Loan for which it is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period or to any Servicing Shift Whole Loan.

-370-

An AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder shall have the right, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an AB Control Appraisal Period, to replace the Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Serviced AB Whole Loan, so long as (A) each Rating Agency delivers a Rating Agency Confirmation; (B) the successor special servicer has assumed in writing (from and after the date such successor special servicer becomes the Special Servicer) all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Special Servicer under this Agreement from and after the date it becomes the Special Servicer as they relate to any Serviced AB Whole Loan pursuant to an assumption agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Administrator; and (C) the Certificate Administrator shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Administrator to the effect that (x) the designation of such replacement to serve as Special Servicer is in compliance with this Agreement, (y) such replacement will be bound by the terms of this Agreement with respect to any Serviced AB Whole Loan, and (z) subject to customary qualifications and exceptions, this Agreement will be enforceable against such replacement in accordance with the terms hereof.

The parties hereto acknowledge that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this section, in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement, if a servicer termination event on the part of a Non-Serviced Special Servicer remains unremedied and affects the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, and such Non-Serviced Special Servicer has not otherwise been terminated, the holder of the related Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan (or the Trustee (or, prior to a Control Termination Event, the Trustee acting at the direction of the Directing Certificateholder)) shall be entitled to direct the related Non-Serviced Trustee to terminate such Non-Serviced Special Servicer solely with respect to the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan(s). The appointment (or replacement) of a special servicer with respect to a Non-Serviced Whole Loan will in any event be subject to Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency. A replacement special servicer will be selected by the related Non-Serviced Trustee or, prior to a control termination event (or similarly defined term) under the related Non-Serviced PSA, by the related Non-Serviced Whole Loan Controlling Holder; provided, however, that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the special servicer with respect to such Non-Serviced Whole Loan cannot at any time be the Person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was terminated at the direction of the holder of such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, without the prior written consent of the Directing Certificateholder.

If at any time the Operating Advisor determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith that (i) the Special Servicer is not performing its duties as required hereunder or is otherwise not acting in accordance with the Servicing Standard, and (ii) the replacement of the Special Servicer would be in the best interest of the Certificateholders as a collective whole, the Operating Advisor shall deliver to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, with a copy to the Special Servicer, a written report in the form of Exhibit W attached hereto, setting forth the reasons supporting its recommendation (along with any information the Operating Advisor considered relevant to its recommendation) and recommending a replacement Special Servicer (which form may be modified or supplemented from time to time to cure any ambiguity or error or to incorporate any additional information, subject to compliance of such form with the terms and provisions of this Agreement; provided, further, that in no event shall the information or any other content included in such written recommendation contravene any provision of this Agreement) detailing the reasons supporting its position (along with relevant information justifying its recommendation) and recommending a suggested replacement special servicer,

-371-

which shall be a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer. In such event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly post notice to all Certificateholders of such recommendation and the related report on the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b), and concurrently by mail conduct the solicitation of votes of all Certificates in such regard, which requisite affirmative votes must be received within one hundred-eighty (180) days of the posting of such notice, and if not so received, such votes shall be null and void ab initio. Upon (i) the affirmative vote of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least a majority of a quorum of Certificateholders (which quorum, for this purpose, is the Holders of Certificates that (A) evidence at least 20% of the Voting Rights (taking into account the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts to notionally reduce the respective Certificate Balances of such Certificates) of all Principal Balance Certificates on an aggregate basis within 180 days of posting of the Operating Advisor’s recommendation to the Certificate Administrator’s Website, and if not so received, such votes shall be null and void ab initio, and (B) consist of at least three Certificateholders or Certificate Owners that are not Risk Retention Affiliated with each other) and (ii) receipt by the Certificate Administrator following satisfaction of the foregoing clause (i) of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation from the applicable rating agencies that such appointment (or replacement) will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of the then current ratings of any class of any related Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan Securities, the Trustee shall (i) terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and appoint a successor special servicer approved by the holders of Certificates evidencing at least a majority of a quorum of Certificateholders (as set forth above) and (ii) promptly notify such outgoing Special Servicer of the effective date of such termination. The reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses of outside counsel) associated with obtaining such Rating Agency Confirmations and administering such vote and the Operating Advisor’s identification of a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer shall be an additional expense of the Trust. In the event that the Certificate Administrator does not receive at least a majority of the requested votes, then the Trustee shall have no obligation to remove the Special Servicer. Prior to the appointment of any replacement special servicer, such replacement special servicer shall have agreed to succeed to the obligations of the Special Servicer under this Agreement and to act as the Special Servicer’s successor hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Advisor shall not be permitted to recommend the replacement of the Special Servicer with respect to a Serviced AB Whole Loan so long as the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder is not subject to an AB Control Appraisal Period under the related Intercreditor Agreement or with respect to any Servicing Shift Whole Loan. For the sake of clarity, the recommendation of replacement of the Special Servicer by the Operating Advisor and the approval of the Certificateholders of such Qualified Replacement Special Servicer shall not preclude the Directing Certificateholder from appointing a replacement special servicer, provided that such replacement may not be the removed Special Servicer or its Affiliate.

No penalty or fee shall be payable to the terminated Special Servicer with respect to any termination pursuant to this Section 7.01(d). All costs of any such termination made by the Directing Certificateholder without cause shall be paid by the Holders of the Controlling Class.

For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnification of the Operating Advisor in Section 6.04 shall include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.04, any action or claim

-372-

arising from, or relating to, the Operating Advisor’s determination under this Section 7.01(d) (regarding removal of the Special Servicer), or the result of the vote of the Certificateholders (regarding removal of the Special Servicer).

(e)               The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall, as the case may be, from time to time, take all such reasonable actions as are required by it in accordance with the related Servicing Standard in order to prevent the Certificates from being placed on “watch” status or downgraded due to servicing or special servicing, as applicable, concerns by any Rating Agency. In no event shall the remedy for a breach of the foregoing covenant extend beyond termination pursuant to Section 7.01(viii) and the resulting operation of Section 7.01(b) and (c). The operation of this subsection (e) shall not be construed to limit the effect of Section 7.01(viii).

(f)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) if any Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer affects a Serviced Companion Loan, the related holder of a Serviced Companion Loan or the rating on any class of certificates backed, wholly or partially, by any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, and if the Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated, or (2) if a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Master Servicer affects only a Serviced Companion Loan, the related holder of a Serviced Companion Loan or the rating on any class of certificates backed, wholly or partially, by any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, then the Master Servicer may not be terminated by or at the direction of the related holder of such Serviced Companion Loan or the holders of any certificates backed, wholly or partially, by such Serviced Companion Loan, but upon the written direction of the related holder of such Serviced Companion Loan, the Master Servicer shall be required to appoint a sub-servicer that will be responsible for servicing the related Serviced Whole Loan.

(g)               (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.01, with respect to any Excluded Special Servicer Loan, if any, the Special Servicer shall resign as Special Servicer of that Excluded Special Servicer Loan. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, if the applicable Excluded Special Servicer Loan is not also an Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder or the majority of the Controlling Class, the Directing Certificateholder shall appoint (and may remove and replace with or without cause) an Excluded Special Servicer, as successor to the resigning Special Servicer, for the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan in accordance with this Agreement. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event or if at any time the applicable Excluded Special Servicer Loan is also an Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder or the majority of the Controlling Class, the resigning Special Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to select the related Excluded Special Servicer. The Special Servicer shall not have any liability with respect to the actions or inactions of the applicable Excluded Special Servicer or with respect to the identity of the applicable Excluded Special Servicer, and absent negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith by the resigning Special Servicer, the resigning Special Servicer and any of its directors, members, managers, officers, employees and agents shall be entitled to be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust against any loss, liability or expense arising out of the actions or inactions and identity of the Excluded Special Servicer. It shall be a condition to any such appointment that (i) the Rating Agencies confirm that the appointment would not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of any of their then-current ratings of the Certificates and the equivalent from each NRSRO hired to provide ratings with respect to any Serviced Companion Loan Securities, (ii) the related

-373-

Excluded Special Servicer, as certified by such Excluded Special Servicer, is a Qualified Replacement Special Servicer and (iii) the related Excluded Special Servicer delivers to the Depositor (and the Certificate Administrator) and any applicable Other Depositor (and any applicable Other Certificate Administrator), the information, if any, required under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act regarding itself in its role as Excluded Special Servicer.

If at any time the Special Servicer is no longer a Borrower Party (including, without limitation, as a result of the related Mortgaged Property becoming an REO Property) with respect to an Excluded Special Servicer Loan, (1) the related Excluded Special Servicer shall resign, (2) the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan shall no longer be an Excluded Special Servicer Loan, (3) the Special Servicer shall become the Special Servicer again for such related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan and (4) the Special Servicer shall be entitled to all special servicing compensation with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan earned during such time on and after such Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan is no longer an Excluded Special Servicer Loan.

The applicable Excluded Special Servicer shall perform all of the obligations of the Special Servicer for the related Excluded Special Servicer Loan and shall be entitled to all special servicing compensation with respect to such Excluded Special Servicer Loan earned during such time as the related Mortgage Loan or Serviced Whole Loan is an Excluded Special Servicer Loan (provided that the Special Servicer shall remain entitled to all other special servicing compensation with respect to all Mortgage Loans and Serviced Whole Loans that are not Excluded Special Servicer Loans during such time).

If a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer, a related Excluded Special Servicer, or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has actual knowledge that a Mortgage Loan is no longer an Excluded Loan, an Excluded Controlling Class Loan or an Excluded Special Servicer Loan, as applicable, the Master Servicer, the related Excluded Special Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall provide prompt written notice thereof to each of the other parties to this Agreement.

Section 7.02        Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. On and after the time the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, either resigns pursuant to subsection (a) of the first sentence of Section 6.05 or receives a notice of termination for cause pursuant to Section 7.01(b), and provided that no acceptable successor has been appointed within the time period specified in Section 7.01(c), the Trustee shall be the successor to such party, until such successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, is appointed as provided in this Section 7.02 or by the Directing Certificateholder as provided in Section 7.01(d), as applicable, in all respects in its capacity as Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to, and have the benefit of, all of the rights, (subject to Section 3.11 and Section 6.04) benefits, responsibilities, duties, liabilities and limitations on liability relating thereto and that arise thereafter placed on or for the benefit of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the terminated party’s failure under Section 7.01 to provide information or moneys required hereunder shall not be considered a default by such successor hereunder. The appointment of a successor master servicer shall not affect any liability of the

-374-

predecessor master servicer which may have arisen prior to its termination as Master Servicer, and the appointment of a successor special servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Special Servicer which may have arisen prior to its termination as Special Servicer. The Trustee in its capacity as successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall not be liable for any of the representations and warranties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, respectively, herein or in any related document or agreement, for any acts or omissions of the predecessor master servicer or special servicer or for any losses incurred by the predecessor master servicer pursuant to Section 3.06 hereunder, nor shall the Trustee be required to purchase any Mortgage Loan hereunder solely as a result of its obligations as successor master servicer or special servicer, as the case may be. Subject to Section 3.11, as compensation therefor, the Trustee as successor master servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fees and all fees relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Companion Loans that the Master Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer had continued to act hereunder, including but not limited to any income or other benefit from any Permitted Investment pursuant to Section 3.06, and subject to Section 3.11, and the Trustee as successor to the Special Servicer shall be entitled to the Special Servicing Fees to which the Special Servicer would have been entitled if the Special Servicer had continued to act hereunder. Should the Trustee succeed to the capacity of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, the Trustee shall be afforded the same standard of care and liability as the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder notwithstanding anything in Section 8.01 to the contrary, but only with respect to actions taken by it in its role as successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as the case may be, and not with respect to its role as Trustee hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to act as successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, or shall, if it is unable to so act, or if the Trustee is not approved as a servicer by each Rating Agency, or if, (i) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and (ii) other than with respect to any Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder or the majority of the Controlling Class, the Directing Certificateholder or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights so direct in writing to the Trustee, promptly appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing institution which meets the criteria set forth in Section 6.05 and otherwise herein, as the successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer hereunder. No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder shall be effective until (i) the assumption in writing by the successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of all its responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder that arise thereafter, (ii) upon receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25), (iii) which appointment has been approved (prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event and other than with respect to an Excluded Loan as to the Directing Certificateholder or the majority of the Controlling Class) by the Directing Certificateholder, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld and (iv) the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 hereof and any

-375-

other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder, unless the Trustee shall be prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as herein above provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption of a successor to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer as described herein, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation with respect to a successor master servicer or successor special servicer, as the case may be, shall be in excess of that permitted the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder. The Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer (whichever is not the terminated party) and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Any costs and expenses associated with the transfer of the servicing function (other than with respect to a termination without cause) under this Agreement shall be borne by the predecessor master servicer or special servicer, as applicable. If such predecessor master servicer or special servicer (as the case may be) has not reimbursed the party requesting such termination or the successor master servicer or special servicer for such expenses within ninety (90) days after the presentation of reasonable documentation, such expense shall be reimbursed by the Trust; provided that the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of its liability for such expenses. If and to the extent that the terminated Master Servicer or Special Servicer has not reimbursed such costs and expenses, the party requesting such termination shall have an affirmative obligation to take all reasonable actions to collect such expenses on behalf of the Trust. In the event of a termination without cause, such costs and expenses shall be borne by the party requesting such termination, or as otherwise set forth herein; provided that the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall not bear any such costs and expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Trustee is terminating the Master Servicer or Special Servicer in accordance with this Agreement at the direction of any party or parties permitted to direct the Trustee to so terminate the Master Servicer or Special Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, the Trustee shall not have any liability for such expenses pursuant to this paragraph.

Section 7.03        Notification to Certificateholders. (a)  Upon any resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 6.05, any termination of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 or any appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02, the Certificate Administrator shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.

Not later than the later of (i) sixty (60) days after the occurrence of any event which constitutes or, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a Servicer Termination Event and (ii) five (5) days after the Certificate Administrator would be deemed to have notice of the occurrence of such an event in accordance with Section 8.02(vii), the Certificate Administrator shall transmit by mail to the Depositor and all Certificateholders (and, if a Serviced Whole Loan is affected, the related Serviced Companion Noteholder) notice of such occurrence, unless such default shall have been cured.

Section 7.04        Waiver of Servicer Termination Events. The Holders of Certificates representing at least 66-2/3% of the Voting Rights allocated to each Class of

-376-

Certificates affected by any Servicer Termination Event hereunder may waive such Servicer Termination Event within twenty (20) days of the receipt of notice from the Certificate Administrator of the occurrence of such Servicer Termination Event; provided, however, that a Servicer Termination Event under clause (i), (ii) or (viii) of Section 7.01(a) may be waived only by all of the Certificateholders of the affected Classes and a Servicer Termination Event under clause (iii) of Section 7.01(a) relating to Exchange Act reporting may be waived only with the consent of the Depositor. Upon any such waiver of a Servicer Termination Event, such Servicer Termination Event shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. Upon any such waiver of a Servicer Termination Event by Certificateholders, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to recover all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with enforcement action taken with respect to such Servicer Termination Event prior to such waiver from the Trust. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Servicer Termination Event or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, for purposes of waiving any Servicer Termination Event pursuant to this Section 7.04, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor shall be entitled to the same Voting Rights with respect to the matters described above as they would if any other Person held such Certificates.

Section 7.05        Trustee as Maker of Advances. In the event that the Master Servicer fails to fulfill its obligations hereunder to make any Advances and such failure remains uncured, the Trustee shall perform such obligations (x) within five (5) Business Days following such failure by the Master Servicer with respect to Servicing Advances resulting in a Servicer Termination Event under Section 7.01(a)(iii) to the extent a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such failure with respect to such Servicing Advances and (y) by noon, New York City time, on the related Distribution Date with respect to P&I Advances pursuant to the Certificate Administrator’s notice of failure pursuant to Section 4.03(a) unless such failure has been cured. With respect to any such Advance made by the Trustee, the Trustee shall succeed to all of the Master Servicer’s rights with respect to Advances hereunder, including, without limitation, the Master Servicer’s rights of reimbursement and interest on each Advance at the Reimbursement Rate, and rights to determine that a proposed Advance is a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Servicing Advance, as the case may be, (without regard to any impairment of any such rights of reimbursement caused by such Master Servicer’s default in its obligations hereunder); provided, however, that if Advances made by the Trustee and the Master Servicer shall at any time be outstanding, or any interest on any Advance shall be accrued and unpaid, all amounts available to repay such Advances and the interest thereon hereunder shall be applied entirely to the Advances outstanding to the Trustee, until such Advances shall have been repaid in full, together with all interest accrued thereon, prior to reimbursement of the Master Servicer for such Advances. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any notice given with respect to a Nonrecoverable Advance hereunder.

(c)               No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct or bad faith; provided, however, that:

(i)                                     Prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event, and after the curing of all such Servicer Termination Events which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement;

-378-

(ii)                               Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall be liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, respectively, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(iii)                               Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of Holders of Certificates entitled to greater than 25% (i) of the Percentage Interest of each affected Class, or (ii) if each Class is an affected Class of the aggregate Voting Rights of the Certificates, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, under this Agreement (unless a higher percentage of Voting Rights is required for such action).

(d)               The Certificate Administrator shall make available via its internet website initially located at www.ctslink.com to the Serviced Companion Noteholders all reports that the Certificate Administrator has made available to Certificateholders under this Agreement to the extent such reports relate to the related Serviced Companion Loan and upon the submission of an Investor Certification pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 8.02        Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:

(i)                                     The Trustee and the Certificate Administrator may rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, direction of the Depositor, Officer’s Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, Appraisal, bond or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

-379-

hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, unless repayment of such funds or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is reasonably assured to it; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event which has not been cured, to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs;

(v)                                 Prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event hereunder and after the curing of all Servicer Termination Events which may have occurred, neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by Holders of Certificates entitled to more than 50% of the Voting Rights; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, respectively, not reasonably assured to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, respectively, may require indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it from such requesting Holders against such expense or liability as a condition to taking any such action. The reasonable expense of every such reasonable examination shall be paid by the requesting Holders;

(vi)                              The Trustee or the Certificate Administrator may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, affiliates or attorneys; provided, however, that the appointment of such agents, affiliates or attorneys shall not relieve the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator of its duties or obligations hereunder; provided, further, that the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, may not perform any duties hereunder through any Person that is a Prohibited Party;

(vii)                            For all purposes under this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be deemed to have notice of any Servicer Termination Event or Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event or any act, failure or breach of any Person upon the occurrence of which the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator may be required to act unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event, act, failure or breach which is in fact such a default is received by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator at the respective Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Certificates or this Agreement;

-380-

(viii)                      Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for any act or omission of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer (unless the Trustee is acting as Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, in which case the Trustee shall only be responsible for its own actions as Master Servicer or Special Servicer), the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Depositor;

(ix)                                Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall in any way be liable by reason of any insufficiency in the Trust Fund unless it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee’s or Certificate Administrator’s, as applicable, negligence or willful misconduct was the primary cause of such insufficiency;

(x)                                   In no event shall the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder due to force majeure or acts of God; provided that such failure or delay is not also a result of its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct;

Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator makes any representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of any Certificate (other than as to the signature, if any, of the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator set forth thereon) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document. Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Administrator shall be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of any of the Certificates issued to it or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor in respect of the assignment of the Mortgage Loans to the Trust, or any funds deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account or any other account by or on behalf of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or in the case of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator.

The Trustee Fee (which shall not be limited to any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) shall constitute the Trustee’s sole form of compensation for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers, rights and duties of the Trustee hereunder, except for the reimbursement of expenses specifically provided for herein. The Certificate Administrator Fee shall constitute the Certificate Administrator’s sole form of compensation for the exercise and performance of its powers and duties hereunder, except for the reimbursement of expenses specifically provided for herein.

-383-

(2) the Trustee maintains an agreement with a national banking association with a rating of at least “A” on its long term senior unsecured debt or issuer credit rating by Fitch or a short term rating of “F1” by Fitch which agreement provides for such national banking association to make Advances if the Trustee, in its capacity as backup advancing party, is unwilling or unable to do so; provided, further, that the Trustee shall notify Fitch within thirty (30) days in the event there is a downgrade of such banking association’s Fitch rating, the agreement is terminated, or any other changes that may limit the agreement) and, if rated by KBRA, “BBB-” by KBRA (or if not rated by KBRA, then at least an equivalent rating by two other NRSROs, which may include S&P and Fitch), or such other rating with respect to which the Rating Agencies have provided a Rating Agency Confirmation; (iii) in the case of the Certificate Administrator, an institution whose long-term senior unsecured debt or issuer credit rating is rated at least “BBB-” by KBRA (or an investment grade rating by any other NRSRO, which may include S&P or Fitch); and (iv) an entity that is not a Prohibited Party.

-385-

(d)               Any resignation or removal of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator and appointment of a successor trustee or certificate administrator pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall not become effective until (i) acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee or certificate administrator as provided in Section 8.08 and (ii) the Certificate Administrator shall have filed any required Form 8-K pursuant to Section 11.07 hereof and any other Form 8-K filings have been completed with respect to any related Companion Loan. Further, the resigning Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, shall pay all costs and expenses associated with the transfer of its duties.

If the same party is acting as Trustee and Certificate Administrator pursuant to this Agreement, any removal of either such party in its capacity as Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, shall also result in such party’s removal in its capacity as Trustee or Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and the Depositor shall appoint a successor certificate administrator and a successor trustee, in each instance meeting the eligibility requirements set forth hereunder.

Upon any succession of the Trustee or Certificate Administrator under this Agreement, the predecessor Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to the payment of accrued and unpaid compensation and reimbursement as provided for under this Agreement for services rendered and expenses incurred (including without limitation, unreimbursed Advances).

The predecessor Trustee shall deliver to the successor trustee all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements held by it hereunder (other than any Mortgage Files at the time held on its behalf by a Custodian, which Custodian, at Custodian’s option shall become the agent of the successor trustee), and the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required to more fully and certainly vest and confirm in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations, and to enable the successor trustee to perform its obligations hereunder.

applicable, hereunder; provided that, in the case of the Trustee, such successor Person shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Certificate Administrator shall post such notice to the Certificate Administrator’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(b) and shall provide notice of such event to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor and the 17g-5 Information Provider, which shall post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with Section 3.13(c).

Section 8.10        Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
(a)  Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Fund or property securing the same may at the time be located or for enforcement actions or where a conflict of interest exists, the Master Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of a request to do so, or in case a Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08. All co-trustee fees shall be payable out of the Trust Fund.

(b)               In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee pursuant to this Section 8.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Trustee.

(c)               Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then-separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.

-388-

(d)               Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

(e)               The appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee under this Section 8.10 shall not relieve the Trustee of its duties and responsibilities hereunder.

Section 8.11        Appointment of Custodians. The Certificate Administrator is hereby appointed as the Custodian to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files. The Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to supervision by federal or state authority (except with respect to the initial custodian), shall have combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and shall be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File. The Custodian shall be subject to the same obligations and standard of care as would be imposed on the Certificate Administrator hereunder in connection with the retention of Mortgage Files directly by the Certificate Administrator. Upon termination or resignation of the Custodian, the Certificate Administrator may appoint another Custodian meeting the foregoing requirements. The appointment of one or more Custodians by the Certificate Administrator shall not relieve the Certificate Administrator from any of its obligations hereunder, and the Certificate Administrator shall remain responsible for all acts and omissions of any Custodian other than the initial Custodian. Any Custodian appointed hereunder must maintain a fidelity bond and errors and omissions policy in an amount customary for Custodians which serve in such capacity in commercial mortgage loan securitization transactions, or may self-insure.

Upon termination of the Trust pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Custodian shall release or cause to be released to the Master Servicer, at the address provided in Section 13.05 of this Agreement or to such other address designated by the Master Servicer in writing, any Mortgage Files remaining in its possession.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-5, Class A-SB, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are no longer outstanding (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right, with the consent of the Master Servicer, to exchange all of the outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates together with the payment or deemed payment of the Termination Purchase Amount) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (iii) of the first paragraph of this Section 9.01 by giving written notice to all the parties hereto no later than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of exchange. In the event that the Sole Certificateholder elects to exchange all of the outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) for all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust in accordance with the preceding sentence, such Sole Certificateholder, not later than the Distribution Date on which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur, shall remit to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account an amount in immediately available funds equal to all amounts due and owing to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator hereunder through the date of the liquidation of the Trust that may be withdrawn from the Collection Account, or an escrow account acceptable to the respective parties hereto, pursuant to Section 3.05(a) or that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.05(b), but only to the extent that such amounts are not already on deposit in the Collection Account. In addition, the Master Servicer shall transfer all amounts required to be transferred to the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account on the P&I Advance Date related to such Distribution Date in which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur from the Collection Account pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 3.04(b) (provided, however, that if a Serviced Whole Loan is secured by REO Property, the portion of the

-393-

above-described purchase price allocable to such Trust’s portion of REO Property shall initially be deposited into the related REO Account). Upon confirmation that such final deposits have been made and following the surrender of all its Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates) on the applicable Distribution Date, the Custodian shall, upon receipt of a Request for Release from the Master Servicer, release or cause to be released to the Sole Certificateholder or any designee thereof, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments furnished to it by the Sole Certificateholder as shall be necessary to effectuate transfer of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties remaining in the Trust Fund, and the Trust shall be liquidated in accordance with Section 9.02. Solely for federal income tax purposes, the Sole Certificateholder shall be deemed to have purchased the assets of the Lower-Tier REMIC for an amount equal to the remaining Certificate Balance of the Principal Balance Certificates, plus accrued, unpaid interest with respect thereto, and the Certificate Administrator shall credit such amounts against amounts distributable in respect of such Certificates and Related Lower-Tier Regular Interests.

The obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and the Companion Paying Agent shall terminate with respect to any Companion Loan to the extent (i) its related Serviced Mortgage Loan has been paid in full or is no longer part of the Trust Fund and (ii) no amounts payable by the related Companion Holder to or for the benefit of the Trust or any party hereto in accordance with the related Intercreditor Agreement remain due and owing.

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, in that order of priority, may, at their option, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund as contemplated by clause (ii) of the first paragraph of this Section 9.01 by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, and the other parties hereto no later than sixty (60) days prior to the anticipated date of purchase; provided, however, that the Holders of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, or the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in that order) may so elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund only on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Balance of the Mortgage Loans as set forth in the Preliminary Statement. This purchase shall terminate the Trust and retire the then-outstanding Certificates. In the event that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer purchases, or the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates purchase, all of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as applicable, shall deposit in the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account not later than the P&I Advance Date relating to the Distribution Date on which the final distribution on the Certificates is to occur, an amount in immediately available funds equal to the above-described purchase price (exclusive of any portion thereof payable to any Person other than the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 3.05(a), which portion shall be deposited in the Collection Account). In addition, the Master Servicer shall transfer to the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account all amounts

-394-

required to be transferred thereto on such P&I Advance Date from the Collection Account pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 3.04(b), together with any other amounts on deposit in the Collection Account that would otherwise be held for future distribution. Upon confirmation that such final deposits and payments have been made, the Custodian shall release or cause to be released to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as applicable, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments furnished to it by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as applicable, as shall be necessary to effectuate transfer of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties remaining in the Trust Fund.

For purposes of this Section 9.01, the Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class shall have the first option to terminate the Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC, then the Special Servicer, then the Master Servicer, and then the Holders of the Class R Certificates. For purposes of this Section 9.01, the Directing Certificateholder with the consent of the Holders of the Controlling Class, shall act on behalf of the Holders of the Controlling Class in purchasing the assets of the Trust and terminating the Trust.

Notice of any termination pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall be given promptly by the Certificate Administrator by letter to the Certificateholders, the Loan-Specific Directing Certificateholder each Serviced Companion Noteholder, the Trustee and the 17g-5 Information Provider in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.13(c) (who shall promptly post a copy of such additional notice on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.13(c)) and, if not previously notified pursuant to this Section 9.01, to the other parties hereto mailed (a) in the event such notice is given in connection with the purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, not earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th day of the month next preceding the month of the final distribution on the Certificates, or (b) otherwise during the month of such final distribution on or before the P&I Advance Determination Date in such month, in each case specifying (i) the Distribution Date upon which the Trust will terminate and final payment of the Certificates will be made, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location therein designated.

After transferring the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and the amount of any Prepayment Premiums and Yield Maintenance Charges distributable to the Regular Certificates pursuant to Section 4.01(d) to the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, in each case pursuant to Section 3.04(b) and upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates by the Certificateholders on the final Distribution Date, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute to each Certificateholder so presenting and surrendering its Certificates (i) such Certificateholder’s Percentage Interest of that portion of the amounts then on deposit in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account that are allocable to payments on the Class of Certificates so presented and (ii) any remaining amount shall be distributed to the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest or the Class UR Interest, as applicable. Amounts transferred from the Lower-Tier REMIC Distribution Account to the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account as of

-395-

the final Distribution Date, shall be distributed in termination and liquidation of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Class LR Interest in accordance with Section 4.01(a), Section 4.01(b), Section 4.01(b) and Section 4.01(i). Any funds not distributed on such Distribution Date shall be set aside and held uninvested in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders not presenting and surrendering their Certificates in the aforesaid manner and shall be disposed of in accordance with this Section 9.01 and Section 4.01(g).

Section 9.02        Additional Termination Requirements. (a) In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer purchases, or the Holders of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates purchase, all of the Mortgage Loans shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements, which meet the definition of a “qualified liquidation” in Section 860F(a)(4) of the Code:

(i)                                    the Certificate Administrator shall specify the date of adoption of the plan of complete liquidation (which shall be the date of mailing of the notice specified in Section 9.01) in a statement attached to each of the related Trust REMIC’s final Tax Returns pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-1;

(ii)                                 during the 90-day liquidation period and at or prior to the time of the making of the final payment on the Certificates, the Certificate Administrator on behalf of the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the related Trust REMIC(s) to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Holders of the Controlling Class or the Holders of the Class R Certificates, as applicable, for cash; and

(iii)                              within such 90-day liquidation period and immediately following the making of the final payment on the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Certificates, the Certificate Administrator shall distribute or credit, or cause to be distributed or credited, to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest (in the case of the Lower-Tier REMIC) and in respect of the Class UR Interest (in the case of the Upper-Tier REMIC) all cash on hand (other than cash retained to meet claims), and the Trust (if applicable) or the related Trust REMIC(s) shall terminate at that time.

ADDITIONAL REMIC PROVISIONS

Section 10.01    REMIC Administration. (a)  The Certificate Administrator shall make elections or cause elections to be made to treat each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the Code and, if necessary, under Applicable State and Local Tax Law. Each such election will be made on IRS Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Regular Certificates are issued. For the purposes of the REMIC election in respect of the Upper-Tier REMIC, each Class of Regular Certificates shall be designated as a class of “regular interests” and the Class UR Interest shall be designated as the sole class of “residual interests” in the Upper-Tier REMIC. For purposes of the REMIC election in respect of the Lower-Tier REMIC,

-396-

each Class of Lower-Tier Regular Interests shall be designated as a class of “regular interests” and the Class LR Interest shall be designated as the sole class of “residual interests” in the Lower-Tier REMIC. None of the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall permit the creation of any “interests” (within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code) in any Trust REMIC other than the foregoing interests.

(b)               The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “startup day” (“Startup Day”) of each Trust REMIC within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.

(c)               The Certificate Administrator shall act on behalf of each Trust REMIC in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving either such Trust REMIC and shall represent each such Trust REMIC in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto. The legal expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ or accountants’ fees, and costs of any such proceeding and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses of the Trust and the Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties on deposit in the Collection Account as provided by Section 3.05(a) unless such legal expenses and costs are incurred by reason of the Certificate Administrator’s willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence. The Certificate Administrator is hereby designated as the “partnership representative” (within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code) of each Trust REMIC. By their acceptance thereof, the Holders of the Class R Certificates hereby agree to such designation of the Certificate Administrator as the “partnership representative” of each Trust REMIC.

(d)               The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared and shall file, or cause to be filed, all of the Tax Returns that it determines are required with respect to each Trust REMIC created hereunder, and shall cause the Trustee to sign (and the Trustee shall timely sign) such Tax Returns in a timely manner. The ordinary expenses of preparing such returns shall be borne by the Certificate Administrator without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Certificate Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed with the IRS, on behalf of each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC, an application for a taxpayer identification number for such Trust REMIC on IRS Form SS-4 or obtain such number by other permissible means. The Certificate Administrator shall be responsible for the preparation of the related IRS Form W-9, if such form is requested. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the information contained therein and is hereby directed to execute such IRS Form W-9; provided, however, the Certificate Administrator shall also be directed to execute such IRS Form W-9 (in lieu of the Trustee) if permitted by IRS regulations.

(e)               The Certificate Administrator shall provide or cause to be provided (i) to any Transferor of a Class R Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the Transfer of such Class R Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified Organization, or in the case of a Transfer to an agent thereof, to such agent, (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or the REMIC Provisions including reports relating to interest, original issue discount and market discount or premium (using the Prepayment Assumption) and (iii) to the IRS a Form 8811, within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date. The Certificate Administrator shall prepare, and the Trustee shall sign, the IRS Form 8811.

-397-

(f)                The Certificate Administrator shall take such actions and shall cause the Trust to take such actions as are reasonably within the Certificate Administrator’s control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein as shall be necessary to maintain the status of each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and the Trustee shall assist the Certificate Administrator to the extent reasonably requested by the Certificate Administrator to do so. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall knowingly or intentionally take any action, cause the Trust to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code, but not including the tax on “net income from foreclosure property”) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Certificate Administrator receives an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or, if such party fails to pay such expense, and the Certificate Administrator determines that taking such action is in the best interest of the Trust and the Certificateholders, at the expense of the Trust, but in no event at the expense of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to the Trust or any Trust REMIC created hereunder, cause the loss of such status or, unless the Certificate Administrator determines in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust against such tax, result in the imposition of such a tax (not including a tax on “net income from foreclosure property”). The Trustee shall not take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Certificate Administrator has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action. The Certificate Administrator may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take the action not expressly permitted by this Agreement, but in no event at the expense of the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee. At all times as may be required by the Code, the Certificate Administrator will to the extent within its control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein, maintain substantially all of the assets of each Trust REMIC as “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(g)               In the event that any applicable federal, state or local tax, including interest, penalties or assessments, additional amounts or additions to tax, is imposed on any Trust REMIC, such tax shall be charged against amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the Certificates, except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 10.01(g); provided that with respect to the estimated amount of tax imposed on any “net income from foreclosure property” pursuant to Section 860G(c) of the Code or any similar tax imposed by a state or local tax authority, the Special Servicer shall retain in the related REO Account a reserve for the payment of such taxes in such amounts and at such times as it shall deem appropriate (or as advised by the Certificate Administrator in writing), and shall remit to the Master Servicer such reserved amounts as the Master Servicer shall request in order to pay such taxes. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the Collection Account sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and to actually pay, such tax as is estimated to be legally owed by any Trust REMIC (but such authorization shall not prevent the Certificate Administrator from contesting, at the expense of the Trust (other than as a consequence of a

-398-

breach of its obligations under this Agreement), any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The Certificate Administrator is hereby authorized to and shall segregate, into a separate non-interest bearing account, the net income from any “prohibited transaction” under Section 860F(a) of the Code or the amount of any taxable contribution to any Trust REMIC after the Startup Day that is subject to tax under Section 860G(d) of the Code and use such income or amount, to the extent necessary, to pay such prohibited transactions tax. To the extent that any such tax (other than any such tax paid in respect of “net income from foreclosure property”) is paid to the IRS or applicable state or local tax authorities, the Certificate Administrator shall retain an equal amount from future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of Class R Certificates (as applicable) and shall distribute such retained amounts, (x) to the Lower-Tier REMIC to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses arising therefrom, (y) in the case of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests, to the Upper-Tier REMIC to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses arising therefrom and then to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class LR Interest in the manner specified in Section 4.01(c) and (z) in the case of the Upper-Tier REMIC, to the Holders of the Principal Balance Certificates in the manner specified in Section 4.01(a) to the extent they are fully reimbursed for any Realized Losses arising therefrom and then to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Class UR Interest. None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be responsible for any taxes imposed on any Trust REMIC except to the extent such taxes arise as a consequence of a breach of their respective obligations under this Agreement which breach constitutes willful misconduct, bad faith, or negligence by such party.

(h)               The Certificate Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain or cause to be maintained books and records with respect to each Trust REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual basis or as otherwise may be required by the REMIC Provisions.

(i)                 Following the Startup Day, neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Trustee shall accept any contributions of assets to any Trust REMIC unless the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to make such contribution) to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in such Trust REMIC will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur.

(j)                 Neither the Certificate Administrator nor the Trustee shall enter into any arrangement by which the Trust or any Trust REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit the Trust or any Trust REMIC to receive any income from assets other than “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(k)               Solely for the purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” of the Lower-Tier Regular Interests and the Regular Certificates is the Rated Final Distribution Date.

(l)                 None of the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall sell, dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection with (i) the default, imminent default or foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property acquired by

-399-

foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust, (iii) the termination of the Trust pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement or (iv) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or Article III of this Agreement) or acquire any assets for the Trust or any Trust REMIC or sell or dispose of any investments in the Collection Account or the REO Account for gain unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel that such sale, disposition or substitution will not (a) affect adversely the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (b) unless the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, has determined in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust against such tax, cause the Trust or any Trust REMIC to be subject to a tax on “prohibited transactions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

(m)             The Certificate Administrator’s authority under this Agreement includes the authority to make, and the Certificate Administrator is hereby directed to make, any elections allowed under the Code (i) to avoid the application of Section 6221 of the Code (or successor provisions) to any Trust REMIC and (ii) to avoid payment by any Trust REMIC under Section 6225 of the Code (or successor provisions) of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on any Holder of a Class R Certificate, past or present. Each Holder of a Class R Certificate agrees, by acquiring such Certificate, to any such elections, and agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Certificate Administrator in connection with any such elections the Certificate Administrator determines in its discretion are necessary or advisable.

Section 10.02    Use of Agents. (a)  The Trustee shall execute all of its obligations and duties under this Article X through its Corporate Trust Office.

(a)  The Depositor shall provide or cause to be provided to the Certificate Administrator within ten (10) days after the Depositor receives a request from the Certificate Administrator, all information or data that the Certificate Administrator reasonably determines to be relevant for tax purposes as to the valuations and issue prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the price, yield, Prepayment Assumptions and projected cash flow of the Certificates.

(b)               The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each furnish such reports, certifications and information, and upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, access to such books and records maintained thereby, as may relate to the Certificates or the Trust and as shall be reasonably requested by the Certificate Administrator in order to enable it to perform its duties hereunder.

Section 10.04    Appointment of REMIC Administrators. (a)  The Certificate Administrator may appoint at the Certificate Administrator’s expense, one or more REMIC Administrators, which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Certificate Administrator in performing the functions set forth in Section 10.01 herein. The Certificate Administrator shall cause any such REMIC Administrator to execute and deliver to the Certificate Administrator an instrument in which REMIC Administrator shall agree to act in such capacity, with the obligations and responsibilities herein.

(b)               Any Person into which any REMIC Administrator may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion, or consolidation to which any REMIC Administrator shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate agency business of any REMIC Administrator, shall continue to be the REMIC Administrator without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Certificate Administrator or the REMIC Administrator.

(c)               Any REMIC Administrator may at any time resign by giving at least thirty (30) days’ advance written notice of resignation to the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Depositor.

Section 11.01    Intent of the Parties; Reasonableness. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the purpose of Article XI of this Agreement is to facilitate compliance by the Depositor (and any Other Depositor of any Other Securitization that includes a Serviced Companion Loan) with the provisions of Regulation AB and the related rules and regulations of the Commission. The Depositor shall not exercise its rights to request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions other than in reasonable good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and, in each case, the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

In connection with the BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-C24, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-C24, and any Other Securitization subject to Regulation AB that includes a Serviced Companion Loan, each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Custodian and the Certificate Administrator shall cooperate fully with the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, and any Other Depositor, Other Trustee and Other Certificate Administrator of any Other Securitization that includes a Serviced Companion Loan, as applicable, to deliver or make available to the Depositor or the Certificate Administrator, and any such Other Depositor, Other Trustee or Other Certificate Administrator, as applicable (including any of its assignees or designees), any and all statements, reports, certifications, records and any other information (in its possession or reasonably attainable) necessary in the reasonable good faith determination of the Depositor or such Other Depositor, as applicable, to permit the Depositor or such Other Depositor, as applicable, to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Certificate Administrator, as applicable, and any Sub-Servicer, or the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (and the related Serviced Companion Loan, if applicable), reasonably believed by the Depositor or the related Other Depositor to be necessary in order to effect such compliance. Each party to this Agreement shall have a reasonable period of time to comply with any written request made under this Section 11.01, but in any event, shall, upon reasonable advance written request, provide information in sufficient time to allow the Depositor and each Other Depositor to satisfy any related filing requirements.

Section 11.02    Succession; Subcontractors. (a)  As a condition to the succession to the Master Servicer and Special Servicer or to any Sub-Servicer (but only if such Sub-Servicer is a Servicing Function Participant and a servicer as contemplated by Item 1108(a)(2)) as servicer or sub-servicer under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Master Servicer and Special Servicer or such Sub-Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Master Servicer and Special Servicer or to any such Sub-Servicer, the person removing and replacing the Master Servicer and Special Servicer shall provide to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and each Other Depositor, as applicable, at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the effective date of such succession or appointment (or such shorter period as is agreed to by the Depositor), (x) written notice to the Depositor, the Other Depositor and the Other Certificate Administrator of such succession or appointment and (y) in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information relating to such successor reasonably requested by the Depositor, Other Depositor or Other Certificate Administrator in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act); provided, however that if disclosing such information prior to such effective date would violate any applicable law or confidentiality agreement, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any Additional Servicer, as the case may be, shall submit such disclosure to the Depositor and the Other Depositor no later than the first Business Day after the effective date of such succession or appointment.

(b)               Each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Sub-Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Certificate Administrator (each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Certificate Administrator and each Sub-Servicer, for purposes of this Section 11.02, a “Servicer”) is permitted to utilize one or more Subcontractors to perform certain of its obligations hereunder. If such Subcontractor will be a Servicing Function Participant, such Servicer shall promptly upon written request provide to the Depositor or any Mortgage Loan Seller (and any Other Trustee, Other Certificate Administrator and Other Depositor related to any Other Securitization that includes a related Serviced Companion Loan) a written description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor, such Mortgage Loan Seller or such Other Trustee, Other Certificate Administrator or Other Depositor, as applicable) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by such Servicer, specifying (i) the identity of such Subcontractor and (ii) the elements of the Servicing Criteria that will be addressed in assessments of compliance provided by each such Subcontractor. As a condition to the utilization by such Servicer of any Subcontractor determined to be a Servicing Function Participant, such Servicer shall (i) with respect to any such Subcontractor engaged by such Servicer that is an Initial Sub-Servicer, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause, and (ii) with respect to any other Subcontractor with which it has entered into a servicing relationship, cause such Subcontractor used by such Servicer for the benefit of the Depositor and the Trustee (and any Other Trustee, Other Certificate Administrator and Other Depositor related to any Other Securitization that includes a related Serviced Companion Loan) to comply with the provisions of Section 11.10 and Section 11.11 of this Agreement to the same extent as if such Subcontractor were such Servicer. With respect to any Servicing Function Participant engaged by such Servicer that is an Initial Sub-Servicer, such Servicer shall be responsible for using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, and with respect to each other Servicing Function Participant engaged by such Servicer, such Servicer

-403-

shall obtain from each such Servicing Function Participant and deliver to the applicable Persons any assessment of compliance report and related accountant’s attestation required to be delivered by such Subcontractor under Section 11.10 and Section 11.11, in each case, as and when required to be delivered. For the avoidance of doubt, the Custodian shall not be permitted to utilize any Subcontractor to perform any of its obligations hereunder.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Servicer engages a Subcontractor, other than an Initial Sub-Servicer in connection with the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, such Servicer shall be responsible for determining whether such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and whether any such Subcontractor meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB. If a Servicer determines, pursuant to the preceding sentence, that such Subcontractor is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB, then such Subcontractor shall be deemed to be a Sub-Servicer for purposes of this Agreement, the engagement of such Sub-Servicer shall not be effective unless and until notice is given to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator of any such Sub-Servicer and Sub-Servicing Agreement. Other than with respect to the Initial Sub-Servicer, no Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be effective until fifteen (15) days after such written notice is received by the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator (or such shorter period as is agreed to by the Depositor). Such notice shall contain all information reasonably necessary to enable the Certificate Administrator to accurately and timely report the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).

(d)               In connection with the succession to the Trustee under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Trustee may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Trustee, the Trustee shall deliver written notice to the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator and the 17g-5 Information Provider, which shall promptly post such notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), in each case at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the effective date of such succession or appointment (or if such prior notice is violative of applicable law or any applicable confidentiality agreement, no later than one (1) Business Day after such effective date of succession) and shall furnish to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator, all information reasonably necessary for the Certificate Administrator to accurately and timely report, pursuant to Section 11.07, the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act).

(e)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article XI, in connection with any Sub-Servicer and/or any Mortgage Loan that is the subject of an Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement, with respect to all matters related to Regulation AB, the Master Servicer shall not have any obligation other than to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Sub-Servicer to comply with its obligations under such Initial Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(f)                Any information furnished pursuant to this Section 11.02 shall also be provided, and subject to the reimbursement of any applicable expenses under Section 11.15, to each Other Depositor and each Other Certificate Administrator (to the extent the information

-404-

relates to a party that services, specially services or is trustee for a Serviced Companion Loan) in the same time frame as set forth in this Section 11.02.

Section 11.03    Filing Obligations. (a)  The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the satisfaction of the Trust’s reporting requirements under the Exchange Act.

(b)               In the event that the Certificate Administrator is unable to timely file with the Commission all or any required portion of any Form 8-K, 10-D, ABS-EE or 10-K required to be filed by this Agreement because required disclosure information was either not delivered to it or delivered to it after the delivery deadlines set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate Administrator will promptly notify the Depositor. In the case of Forms 10-D, ABS-EE and 10-K, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Trustee will thereupon cooperate to prepare and file a Form 12b-25 and a Form 10-D/A, Form ABS-EE/A or Form 10-K/A, as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange Act. In the case of Form 8-K, the Certificate Administrator will, upon receipt of all required Form 8-K Disclosure Information and upon the approval and direction of the Depositor, include such disclosure information on the next succeeding Form 10-D to be filed for the Trust. In the event that any previously filed Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K needs to be amended, the Certificate Administrator will notify the Depositor, and such other parties as needed and the parties hereto will cooperate with the Certificate Administrator to prepare any necessary Form 8-K/A, Form 10-D/A, Form ABS-EE/A or Form 10-K/A. Any Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K shall be signed by an officer of the Depositor. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Certificate Administrator of its duties under this Section 11.03 related to the timely preparation and filing of Form 15, a Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K is contingent upon the parties observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under Sections  11.03, 11.04, 11.05, 11.06, 11.07, 11.08, 11.09, 11.10, 11.11 and 11.15(g) of this Agreement. The Certificate Administrator shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, arrange for execution and/or timely file any such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K, where such failure results from the Certificate Administrator’s inability or failure to receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Form 8-K, Form 10-D, Form ABS-EE or Form 10-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

The Master Servicer shall (and shall cause any related Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into after receipt of written notice from the Other Depositor that such Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan is a significant obligor to require the related Sub-Servicer to) retain written evidence of each instance in which it (or a Sub-Servicer) attempts to contact the related Mortgagor related to any such “significant obligor” (identified to it as such by the Other Depositor in accordance with the second preceding paragraph) to obtain the required financial information and is unsuccessful and, within five (5) Business Days prior to the date in which a Form 10-D or Form 10-K, as applicable, is required to be filed by the Other Securitization, shall forward an Officer’s Certificate evidencing its attempts to obtain this information to the Other Exchange Act Reporting Party and Other Depositor related to such Other Securitization. This Officer’s Certificate should be addressed to the certificate administrator at its corporate trust office, as specified in the related Other Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

(h)               If any Other Securitization includes a Serviced Companion Loan and is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, then the obligations of the parties hereto set forth in this Article XI with respect to such Other Securitization shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that the Trust may cease to be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

Section 11.16    Certain Matters Regarding Significant Obligors. For the avoidance of doubt, there is no “significant obligor” (within the meaning of Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB) as of the Closing Date (“Significant Obligor”) related to the Trust.

Section 11.17    Impact of Cure Period. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be subject to a Servicer Termination Event pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition thereof prior to the expiration of the Grace Period applicable to such party’s obligations under Article XI as provided for in such clause (iii) nor shall any such party be deemed to not be in compliance under this Agreement, during any Grace Period provided for in this Article XI; provided that if any such party fails to comply with the delivery requirements of this Article XI by the expiration of any applicable Grace Period such failure shall constitute a Servicer Termination Event. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be subject to a Servicer Termination Event pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition thereof prior to the expiration of the Grace Period applicable to such party’s obligations under this Article XI as provided for in such clause (iii) nor shall any such party be

-430-

deemed to not be in compliance under this Agreement, for failing to deliver any item required under this Article XI by the time required hereunder with respect to any reporting period for which the Trust (or any trust in a related Other Securitization) is not required to file Exchange Act reports.

Article XII

THE ASSET REPRESENTATIONS REVIEWER

Section 12.01    Asset Review.

(a)               On or prior to each Distribution Date, based on either the CREFC^® Delinquent Loan Status Report or the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File, the Certificate Administrator shall determine if an Asset Review Trigger has occurred. If an Asset Review Trigger is determined to have occurred, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide notice to all Certificateholders and each other party to this Agreement. Any notice required to be delivered to the Certificateholders pursuant to this Article XII shall be delivered by the Certificate Administrator by posting such notice on the Certificate Administrator’s Website, by mailing such notice to the Certificateholders’ addresses appearing in the Certificate Register in the case of Definitive Certificates and by delivering such notice via the Depository in the case of Book-Entry Certificates. The Certificate Administrator shall include in the Form 10-D relating to the reporting period in which the Asset Review Trigger occurred the following statement describing the events that caused the Asset Review Trigger to occur: “As of the [Date of Distribution], the following Mortgage Loans identified below are 60 or more days delinquent and an Asset Review Trigger as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement has occurred”. On each Distribution Date occurring after providing such notice to Certificateholders, the Certificate Administrator, based on information provided to it by the Master Servicer, shall determine whether (1) any additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Loan, (2) any Mortgage Loan has ceased to be a Delinquent Loan and (3) whether an Asset Review Trigger has ceased to exist, and, if there is an occurrence of any of the clauses (1), (2) and/or (3), deliver written notice of such information (which may be via email) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit SS within two (2) Business Days to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer.

If Certificateholders evidencing not less than 5% of the aggregate Voting Rights of the Certificates deliver to the Certificate Administrator, within ninety (90) days after the filing of the Form 10-D reporting the occurrence of an Asset Review Trigger, a written direction requesting a vote to commence an Asset Review (such written direction, the “Asset Review Vote Election”), then upon receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to all Certificateholders (with a copy to the Asset Representations Reviewer) and conduct a solicitation of votes in accordance with Section 5.10 to authorize an Asset Review. Upon the affirmative vote to authorize an Asset Review of Holders of Certificates evidencing at least a majority of an Asset Review Quorum within 150 days of receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election (an “Affirmative Asset Review Vote”), the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to all parties to this Agreement, the

-431-

Underwriters, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Directing Certificateholder, the Risk Retention Consultation Party and the Certificateholders (the “Asset Review Notice”). Upon receipt of an Asset Review Notice, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request access to the Secure Data Room by providing the Certificate Administrator with a certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit RR (which shall be sent via email to trustadministrationgroup@computershare.com or submitted electronically via the Certificate Administrator’s Website). Upon receipt of such certification, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly (and in any case within two (2) Business Days after such receipt) grant the Asset Representations Reviewer access to the Secure Data Room. In the event an Affirmative Asset Review Vote has not occurred within such 150-day period following the receipt of the Asset Review Vote Election, no Certificateholder may request a vote or cast a vote for an Asset Review and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be required to review any Delinquent Loan unless and until (A) an additional Mortgage Loan has become a Delinquent Loan after the expiration of such 150-day period, (B) an Asset Review Trigger has occurred as a result or otherwise is in effect, (C) the Certificate Administrator has received any Asset Review Vote Election after the occurrence of the events described in clauses (A) and (B) in this sentence and (D) an Affirmative Asset Review Vote has occurred within 150 days after the Asset Review Vote Election described in clause (C) in this sentence. After the occurrence of any Asset Review Vote Election or an Affirmative Asset Review Vote, no Certificateholder may make any additional Asset Review Vote Election except as described in the immediately preceding sentence. Any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote will be paid as an expense of the Trust from the Collection Account. The Certificate Administrator shall be entitled to administer any vote in connection with the foregoing through an agent.

(b)               (i)  Upon receipt of an Asset Review Notice, the Custodian (with respect to the following clauses (1) - (5) for all Mortgage Loans), the Master Servicer (with respect to the following clauses (6) and (7) for Non-Specially Serviced Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to clauses (6) and (7) for Specially Serviced Loans), in each case to the extent in such party’s possession, shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days (except with respect to the following clause (7)) after receipt of such notice from the Certificate Administrator, provide or make available, the following materials (in secure electronic format) to the Asset Representations Reviewer (collectively, with the Diligence Files posted on the Secure Data Room by the Certificate Administrator pursuant to Section 4.08, a copy of the Prospectus, a copy of each related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and a copy of this Agreement, the “Review Materials”):

(1)                                 a copy of an assignment of the Mortgage in favor of the Trustee, with evidence of recording thereon, for each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(2)                                 a copy of an assignment of any related assignment of leases (if such item is a document separate from the Mortgage) in favor of the Trustee, with evidence of recording thereon, related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

-432-

(3)                                  copies of the assignment of all unrecorded documents relating to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review, if not already covered pursuant to items (1) or (2) above;

(4)                                 a copy of all filed copies (bearing evidence of filing) or evidence of filing of any UCC Financing Statements related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(5)                                 a copy of an assignment in favor of the Trustee of any financing statement executed and filed in the relevant jurisdiction related to each Delinquent Loan that is subject to an Asset Review;

(6)                                 a copy of any notice previously delivered by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, of any alleged Defect or Breach with respect to any Delinquent Loan; and

(7)                                 any other related documents that are reasonably requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer to be delivered by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in the time frames and as otherwise described below.

(ii)                                  In the event that, as part of an Asset Review of any Mortgage Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that the Review Materials provided to it with respect to any Mortgage Loan are missing any document that is required to be part of the Review Materials for such Mortgage Loan and that is necessary in connection with its completion of the Asset Review, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the Review Materials, notify the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans), as applicable, of such missing documents, and the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notification from the Asset Representations Reviewer, deliver to the Asset Representations Reviewer such missing documents to the extent in its possession; provided that any such notification and/or request shall be in writing, specifically identifying the documents being requested and sent to the notice address for the related party set forth in Section 13.05 of this Agreement. In the event any missing documents are not provided by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, within such 10-Business Day period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request such documents from the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided that the Mortgage Loan Seller shall be required under the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to, deliver such additional documents only to the extent such documents are in the possession of such party but in any event excluding any documents that contain information that is proprietary to the related originator or Mortgage Loan Seller or any draft documents or privileged or internal communications.

(iii)                               The Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider and rely upon information furnished to it by a Person that is not a party to this Agreement or the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, and shall do so only if such

-433-

information can be independently verified (without unreasonable effort or expense to the Asset Representations Reviewer) and is determined by the Asset Representations Reviewer in its good faith and sole discretion to be relevant to the Asset Review (any such information, “Unsolicited Information”) conducted pursuant to this Section 12.01 hereof.

(iv)                              Upon receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of the Asset Review Notice and access to the Diligence Files posted to the Secure Data Room with respect to a Delinquent Loan, the Asset Representations Reviewer, as an independent contractor, shall commence a review of the compliance of each Delinquent Loan with the representations and warranties related to that Delinquent Loan (such review, the “Asset Review”). The Asset Representations Reviewer shall perform an Asset Review with respect to each representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Delinquent Loan in accordance with the Asset Review Standard and the procedures set forth on Exhibit QQ hereto (such procedure, a “Test”); provided, however, the Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, modify any Test and/or associated Review Materials described in Exhibit QQ if, and only to the extent, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that it is necessary to modify such Test and/or such associated Review Materials in order to facilitate its Asset Review in accordance with the Asset Review Standard. Once an Asset Review of a Mortgage Loan is completed, no further Asset Review shall be required in respect of, or performed on, such Mortgage Loan notwithstanding that such Mortgage Loan may continue to be a Delinquent Loan or again become a Delinquent Loan at a time when a new Asset Review Trigger occurs and a new Affirmative Asset Review Vote is obtained subsequent to the occurrence of such new Asset Review Trigger.

(v)                                 No Certificateholder shall have the right to change the scope of the Asset Review, and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be required to review any information other than (x) the Review Materials or (y) if applicable, Unsolicited Information.

(vi)                               The Asset Representations Reviewer may, absent manifest error and subject to the Asset Review Standard, (x) assume, without independent investigation or verification, that the Review Materials are accurate and complete in all material respects and (y) conclusively rely on such Review Materials.

(vii)                           The Asset Representations Reviewer shall prepare a preliminary report with respect to each Delinquent Loan within fifty-six (56) days after the date on which access to the Secure Data Room is provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate Administrator; provided that the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be required to prepare a preliminary report in the event the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that there is no Test failure with respect to the related Delinquent Loan. In the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer determines that the Review Materials are insufficient to complete a Test and such missing documentation is not delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Master Servicer (with respect to Non-Specially Serviced Loans) or the Special Servicer (with respect to Specially Serviced Loans) to the

-434-

extent in its possession or by the related Mortgage Loan Seller within ten (10) Business Days following the request by the Asset Representations Reviewer as described in Section 12.01(b)(ii), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall list such missing documents in such preliminary report setting forth the preliminary results of the application of the Tests and the reasons why such missing documents are necessary to complete a Test and (if the Asset Representations Reviewer has so concluded) that the absence of such documents shall be deemed to be a failure of such Test. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall provide such preliminary report to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the related Mortgage Loan Seller. The Special Servicer, if applicable, may review such preliminary report and determine whether any information contained in such preliminary report shall be labeled as “Privileged Information” and thus be excluded from the Asset Review Report and Asset Review Report Summary. If the preliminary report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the related Mortgage Loan Seller shall have ninety (90) days (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the failure. Any documents provided or explanations given to support the Mortgage Loan Seller’s claim that the representation and warranty has not failed a Test or that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test shall be promptly delivered by the related Mortgage Loan Seller to the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(viii)                        The Asset Representations Reviewer shall, within sixty (60) days after the date on which access to the Secure Data Room is provided to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Certificate Administrator or within the ten (10) days after the expiration of the Cure/Contest Period (whichever is later), complete an Asset Review with respect to each Delinquent Loan and deliver (i) a report setting forth the Asset Representations Reviewer’s findings and conclusions as to whether or not it has determined there is any evidence of a failure of any Test based on the Asset Review and a statement that the Asset Representations Reviewer’s findings and conclusions set forth in such report were not influenced by any third party (an “Asset Review Report”) to each party to this Agreement and the related Mortgage Loan Seller for each Delinquent Loan and (ii) a summary of the Asset Representations Reviewer’s conclusions included in such Asset Review Report (an “Asset Review Report Summary”) to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator. The period of time by which the Asset Review Report must be completed and delivered may be extended by up to an additional thirty (30) days, upon written notice to the parties to this Agreement and the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, if the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that such additional time is required due to the characteristics of the Mortgage Loan and/or the Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties. In no event may the Asset Representations Reviewer determine whether any Test failure constitutes a Material Defect, or whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller (or, in the case of (i) Barclays, BCHI in respect of its obligations under the Barclays Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, (ii) SGFC, Société Générale in respect of its obligations under the SGFC Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and (iii) BSPRT, FBRT in respect of its obligations under the BSPRT Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement), which, in each case, shall be a responsibility of the Special Servicer or Master Servicer, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.03(f) of this Agreement.

-435-

(ix)                         In addition, in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer does not receive any documentation that it requested from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, or the related Mortgage Loan Seller in sufficient time to allow the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete its Asset Review and deliver an Asset Review Report, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall prepare the Asset Review Report solely based on the documentation received by the Asset Representations Reviewer with respect to the related Delinquent Loan, and the Asset Representations Reviewer shall have no responsibility to independently obtain any such documentation from any party to this Agreement.

(x)                                   Within forty-five (45) days after receipt of an Asset Review Report with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Enforcing Servicer shall determine whether at that time, based on the Servicing Standard, there exists a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan. If the Enforcing Servicer determines that a Material Defect exists, the Enforcing Servicer shall enforce the obligations of the related Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to such Material Defect in accordance with Section 2.03(b).

(c)               The Asset Representations Reviewer shall keep all information appropriately labeled as “Privileged Information” confidential and shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person (including Certificateholders), other than (1) to the extent expressly required by this Agreement in an Asset Review Report or otherwise, to the other parties to this Agreement with a notice indicating that such information is Privileged Information or (2) pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. Each party to this Agreement that receives Privileged Information from the Asset Representations Reviewer with a notice stating that such information is Privileged Information shall not disclose such Privileged Information to any Person without the prior written consent of the Special Servicer other than pursuant to a Privileged Information Exception. In addition, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall keep all documents and information received by the Asset Representations Reviewer in connection with an Asset Review that are provided by the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer confidential and shall not disclose such documents or information except for purposes of complying with its duties and obligations hereunder.

 

In addition, with respect to any Delinquent Loan that is a Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the extent any documents required by the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete a Test are missing or have not been received from the related Mortgage Loan Seller, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall request such document(s) from the related Non-Serviced Master Servicer (if such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is being serviced by a Non-Serviced Master Servicer) or the related Non-Serviced Special Servicer (if such Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan is being serviced by a Non-Serviced Special Servicer).

(d)               The Asset Representations Reviewer may delegate its duties to agents or subcontractors so long as the related agreements or arrangements with such agents or subcontractors are consistent with the provisions of this Section 12.01; provided that no agent or subcontractor may (1) be affiliated with any Mortgage Loan Seller, Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates or (2) have been paid any fees, compensation or other remuneration by an Underwriter, Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the

-436-

Depositor, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Directing Certificateholder or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with due diligence or other services with respect to any Mortgage Loan prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall remain obligated and primarily liable for any Asset Review required hereunder in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability or related obligation or liability by virtue of such delegation or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from any Person acting as its agents or subcontractor to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Asset Representations Reviewer alone were performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with any agent or subcontractor providing for indemnification of the Asset Representations Reviewer by such agent or subcontractor, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

Section 12.02    Payment of Asset Representations Reviewer Fees and Expenses; Limitation of Liability.

(a)               As compensation for the performance of its routine duties, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be paid a fee (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Fee”), payable monthly from amounts received in respect of each Mortgage Loan and REO Loan and shall be equal to the product of a rate equal to 0.00036% per annum (the “Asset Representations Reviewer Fee Rate”) and the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and any REO Loans (excluding any Companion Loan) and shall be calculated in the same manner as interest is calculated on such Mortgage Loans.

(b)               As compensation for the performance of its duties hereunder, with respect to an individual Asset Review Trigger and each Mortgage Loan that is a Delinquent Loan and is subject to an Asset Review (for purposes of this paragraph, each a “Subject Loan”), upon the completion of any Asset Review with respect to an individual Asset Review Trigger, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall be paid a fee equal to the sum of: (i) $20,500 multiplied by the number of Delinquent Loans, plus (ii) $2,050 per Mortgaged Property relating to the Delinquent Loans in excess of one Mortgaged Property per Delinquent Loan, plus (iii) $2,700 per Mortgaged Property relating to a Delinquent Loan subject to a ground lease, plus (iv) $1,500 per Mortgaged Property relating to a Delinquent Loan subject to franchise agreement, hotel management agreement or hotel license agreement, subject, in the case of each of clauses (i) through (iv), to adjustments on the basis of the year end “Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers” as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, or other similar index if the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers is no longer calculated for the year of the Closing Date and for the year of the occurrence of the Asset Review (any such fee, the “Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee”). The Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to each Delinquent Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) shall be paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, however, that if the related Mortgage Loan Seller is insolvent or fails to pay such amount within ninety (90) days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee shall be paid by the Trust following delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of a certification to the Master Servicer that the requirements for payment set forth in this Section 12.02(b) have been met. The Asset Representations Reviewer

-437-

shall not deliver any such certificate unless it has invoiced payment of such amount and otherwise met the requirements for payment set forth in this Section 12.02(b), including receipt of evidence of such insolvency or failure to pay such amount. A Mortgage Loan Seller shall be deemed to have failed to pay such amount hereunder ninety (90) days after delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of an itemized invoice to such Mortgage Loan Seller by registered mail or overnight courier to the address listed in this Agreement for such Mortgage Loan Seller, or to such other address as shall be provided by such Mortgage Loan Seller for delivery of notices in accordance with this Agreement, or ninety (90) days following attempted delivery of such invoice by registered mail or overnight courier and reasonable follow-up by telephone or e-mail. Notwithstanding any payment of such fee by the Trust to the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee will remain an obligation of the related Mortgage Loan Seller and the Enforcing Servicer shall pursue remedies against such Mortgage Loan Seller to recover any such amounts to the extent paid by the Trust.

(c)               The Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to each Delinquent Loan (or, in the case of a Joint Mortgage Loan, the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller Percentage Interest thereof) shall be paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller; provided, however, that if the related Mortgage Loan Seller is insolvent, such fee shall be paid by the Trust out of general collections on deposit in the Collection Account following delivery by the Asset Representations Reviewer of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer of such insolvency; provided, further, that notwithstanding any payment of such fee by the Issuing Entity to the Asset Representations Reviewer, such fee will remain an obligation of the related Mortgage Loan Seller and the Enforcing Servicer shall, to the extent consistent with the Servicing Standard, pursue remedies against such Mortgage Loan Seller in order to seek recovery of such amounts from such Mortgage Loan Seller or its insolvency estate.

(d)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to a Delinquent Loan shall be included in the Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan that was the subject of a completed Asset Review that is repurchased by a Mortgage Loan Seller to the extent such fee was not already paid by the related Mortgage Loan Seller, and such portion of the Purchase Price received shall be used to reimburse the Trust for such fees paid to the Asset Representations Reviewer pursuant to Section 12.02(c).

(e)               The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed by this Agreement.

(f)                The Asset Representations Reviewer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement in connection with the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its Asset Representations Reviewer portfolio, provided that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accepting such assignment and delegation (A) is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any state of the United States of America or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to perform the duties of the asset representations reviewer resulting from a merger, consolidation or succession that is permitted under this Agreement, (B) executes and delivers to the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator an agreement that contains an assumption by such person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by the asset representations reviewer under this Agreement from and after the date of such agreement

-438-

and (C) is not a Prohibited Party under this Agreement; (ii) the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be released from its obligations under this Agreement that arose prior to the effective date of such assignment and delegation; (iii) the rate at which each of the Asset Representations Reviewer Fee and the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee (or any component thereof) is calculated shall not exceed the rate then in effect and (iv) the resigning Asset Representations Reviewer shall be responsible for the reasonable costs and expenses of each other party to this Agreement and the Rating Agencies in connection with such transfer. Upon acceptance of such assignment and delegation, the purchaser or transferee shall provide notice to each party to this Agreement and then will be the successor asset representations reviewer hereunder.

Section 12.03    Resignation of the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer may at any time resign and be discharged from its obligations hereunder by giving written notice thereof to the other parties to this Agreement and each Rating Agency. In addition, the asset representations reviewer will at all times be, and will be required to resign if it fails to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer by giving written notice to the other parties. Upon such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. No resignation of the asset representations reviewer will be effective until a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer has been appointed and accepted the appointment. If no successor asset representations reviewer shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Asset Representations Reviewer may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer will bear all reasonable costs and expenses of each other party hereto and each Rating Agency in connection with its resignation.

Section 12.04    Restrictions of the Asset Representations Reviewer. Neither the Asset Representations Reviewer nor any of its Affiliates shall make any investment in any Class of Certificates; provided, however, that such prohibition shall not apply to (i) riskless principal transactions effected by a broker dealer Affiliate of the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) investments by an Affiliate of the Asset Representations Reviewer if the Asset Representations Reviewer and such Affiliate maintain policies and procedures that (A) segregate personnel involved in the activities of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement from personnel involved in such Affiliate’s investment activities and (B) prevent such Affiliate and its personnel from gaining access to information regarding the Trust and the Asset Representations Reviewer and its personnel from gaining access to such Affiliate’s information regarding its investment activities.

Section 12.05    Termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer.

(a)               An “Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event” means any one of the following events whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body:

-439-

(i)                                 any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants or agreements or the material breach of its representations or warranties under this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by the Trustee or to the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates having greater than 25% of the aggregate Voting Rights of all the then outstanding Certificates; provided that any such failure that is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall have an additional cure period of thirty (30) days to effect such cure so long as it has commenced to cure such failure within the initial thirty (30) day period and has provided the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator with an officer’s certificate certifying that it has diligently pursued, and is continuing to pursue, such cure;

(ii)                                  any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform its obligations set forth hereunder in accordance with the Asset Review Standard in any material respect, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by any party to this Agreement;

(iii)                               any failure by the Asset Representations Reviewer to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, which failure shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, is given to the Asset Representations Reviewer by any party to this Agreement;

(iv)                              a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Asset Representations Reviewer, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days;

(v)                                 the Asset Representations Reviewer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or liquidation committee in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities, voluntary liquidation, or similar proceedings of or relating to the Asset Representations Reviewer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(vi)                              the Asset Representations Reviewer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations.

Upon receipt by the Certificate Administrator of written notice of the occurrence of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice to all Certificateholders (which shall be simultaneously

-440-

delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer) in accordance with the notice distribution procedures described in Section 12.01(a), unless the Certificate Administrator has received written notice that such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event has been remedied. If an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall occur then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee (i) may or (ii) upon the written direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts), the Trustee shall, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement, other than rights and obligations accrued prior to such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination), by notice in writing to the Asset Representations Reviewer. The Asset Representations Reviewer is required to bear all reasonable costs and expenses of itself and of each other party to this Agreement in connection with its termination due to an Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor and each Mortgage Loan Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to notify the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee of any Asset Representations Reviewer Termination Event of which it becomes aware.

(b)               Upon (i) the written direction of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts) requesting a vote to terminate and replace the Asset Representations Reviewer with a proposed successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer and (ii) payment by such Holders to the Certificate Administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the Certificate Administrator in connection with administering such vote, the Certificate Administrator shall promptly provide written notice thereof to the Asset Representations Reviewer by mailing such notice to the Asset Representations Reviewer and to all Certificateholders in accordance with the notice distribution procedures described in Section 12.01(a). Upon the written direction of Holders of Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least 75% of a Certificateholder Quorum (without regard to the application of any Cumulative Appraisal Reduction Amounts), the Trustee shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Asset Representations Reviewer under this Agreement (other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination and other than indemnification rights arising out of events occurring prior to such termination) by notice in writing to the Asset Representations Reviewer and appoint the proposed successor. As between the Asset Representations Reviewer, on the one hand, and the Holders of Principal Balance Certificates, on the other, such Certificateholders shall be entitled in their sole discretion to vote for the termination or not vote for the termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer. In the event that Holders of the Principal Balance Certificates evidencing at least 75% of the Certificateholder Quorum elect to remove the Asset Representations Reviewer without cause and appoint a successor, the successor asset representations reviewer will be responsible for all expenses necessary to effect the transfer of responsibilities from its predecessor.

(c)               On or after the receipt by the Asset Representations Reviewer of written notice of termination, subject to this Section 12.05, all of its authority and power under this Agreement shall be terminated and, without limitation, the terminated Asset Representations Reviewer shall execute any and all documents and other instruments, and do or accomplish all

-441-

other acts or things reasonably necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after (1) the Asset Representations Reviewer resigns pursuant to Section 12.03 of this Agreement or (2) the Trustee delivers such written notice of termination to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee shall appoint a successor asset representations reviewer that is an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer. The Trustee shall provide written notice of the appointment of an Asset Representations Reviewer to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator, the Directing Certificateholder and each Certificateholder within one Business Day of such appointment.

The Asset Representations Reviewer shall at all times be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer and if the Asset Representations Reviewer ceases to be an Eligible Asset Representations Reviewer, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall immediately notify the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Certificate Administrator and the Directing Certificateholder of such disqualification and immediately resign under Section 12.03 of this Agreement and the Trustee shall appoint a successor asset representations reviewer subject to and in accordance with this Section 12.05. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee is unable to find a successor asset representations reviewer within thirty (30) days of the termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Depositor shall be permitted to find a replacement. The Trustee shall not be liable for any failure to identify and appoint a successor asset representations reviewer so long as the Trustee uses commercially reasonable efforts to conduct a search for a successor asset representations reviewer and such failure is not a result of the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the performance of its obligations hereunder.

(d)               Upon any termination of the Asset Representations Reviewer and appointment of a successor to the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator (who shall, as soon as possible, give written notice thereof to the Certificateholders), the Operating Advisor, the Mortgage Loan Sellers, the Depositor and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Consultation Termination Event, the Directing Certificateholder and each Rating Agency. In the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer is terminated, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall terminate, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination (including the right to receive all amounts accrued and owing to it under this Agreement) and other than indemnification rights (arising out of events occurring prior to such termination).

(h)               The Servicing Standard shall not be amended unless each Rating Agency provides Rating Agency Confirmation and, with respect to any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities, the applicable rating agencies provide a confirmation that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current ratings, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25).

(i)                 To the extent the Operating Advisor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Depositor obtains an Opinion of Counsel as provided for in Section 13.01(c) in connection with executing any amendment to this Agreement, such party shall be deemed not to have acted negligently in connection with entering into such amendment for purposes of availing itself of any indemnity provided to such party under this Agreement.

(j)                 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to this Section 13.01, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor shall be entitled to the same Voting Rights with respect to matters described above as they would if any other Person held such Certificates, so long as neither the Depositor nor any of its Affiliates is performing servicing duties with respect to any of the Mortgage Loans.

(k)               This Agreement may not be amended without the consent of the AB Whole Loan Controlling Holder if such amendment would materially and adversely affect the related Mortgage Loan or the rights of such Companion Holder hereunder.

(l)                 In addition, if one but not all of the Mortgage Notes evidencing a Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased by the applicable Mortgage Loan Sellers, this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto (at the expense of the party requesting such amendment (or, if the Master Servicer or Special Servicer is requesting such amendment in connection with the fulfillment of its duties under this Agreement, at the expense of the Trust)), without the consent of any Certificateholder, to add or modify provisions relating to the applicable Repurchased Note for purposes of the servicing and administration of such Repurchased Note provided that the amendment shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Certificateholders, as evidenced by a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency (obtained at the expense of the Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller) with respect to such amendment (or, if no such Rating Agency Confirmation is actually received, by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect). Prior to the effectiveness of such amendment, if one but not all of the Mortgage Notes with respect to a Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased, the terms of Section 3.34 shall govern the servicing and administration of such Joint Mortgage Loan.

The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it hereunder or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders of Certificates unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or hereby.

Section 13.06    Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates or the rights of the Holders thereof.

Section 13.07    Grant of a Security Interest. The Depositor intends that the conveyance of the Conveyed Property shall constitute a sale and not a pledge of security for a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge of security for a loan, however, the Depositor intends that the rights and obligations of the parties to such loan shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Depositor also intends and agrees that, in such event, (i) the

-459-

Depositor shall be deemed to have granted to the Trustee (in such capacity) a first priority security interest in the Depositor’s entire right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, the Conveyed Property and all proceeds thereof and (ii) this Agreement shall constitute a Security Agreement under applicable law. The Depositor shall file or cause to be filed, as a precautionary filing, a UCC Financing Statement in all appropriate locations in the State of Delaware promptly following the initial issuance of the Certificates, and the Certificate Administrator shall, at the expense of the Depositor (to the extent reasonable), prepare and file continuation statements with respect thereto, in each case in the six-month period prior to every fifth anniversary of the date of the initial UCC Financing Statement. The Depositor shall cooperate in a reasonable manner with the Certificate Administrator in the preparation and filing of such continuation statements. This Section 13.07 shall constitute notice to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee pursuant to any of the requirements of the applicable UCC.

Section 13.08    Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. (a)  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto, and all such provisions shall inure to the benefit of the Certificateholders, subject to Section 13.03. Each Mortgage Loan Seller (and its respective agents), each Additional Repurchase Obligor under a Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, each guarantor of a Mortgage Loan Seller’s obligations under the applicable Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, each Companion Holder (and its respective agents), each Underwriter, each depositor of a Regulation AB Companion Loan Securitization, each Other Exchange Act Reporting Party (with respect to its rights under Article XI of this Agreement) and the Initial Purchasers are intended third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement in respect of the respective rights afforded them hereunder. No other person, including, without limitation, any Mortgagor, shall be entitled to any benefit or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement. If one, but not all, of the Mortgage Notes evidencing any Joint Mortgage Loan is repurchased, the applicable Repurchasing Mortgage Loan Seller shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement to the same extent as if it were a holder of a Serviced Pari Passu Companion Loan, as contemplated by Section 3.34 hereof.

(b)               Each Serviced Companion Noteholder shall be a third-party beneficiary to this Agreement in respect to the rights afforded it hereunder. Each of the Other Servicers and the Other Trustees shall be a third-party beneficiary to this Agreement in respect to all provisions herein expressly relating to compensation, reimbursement or indemnification of such Other Servicer and Other Trustee, and any provisions regarding reimbursement or advances or interest thereon to such Other Servicer or Other Trustee.

(c)               Each of the applicable Non-Serviced Trustee, Non-Serviced Master Servicer, Non-Serviced Special Servicer, Non-Serviced Depositor, Non-Serviced Paying Agent and any Non-Serviced Trust holding a related Non-Serviced Companion Loan, shall be a third-party beneficiary to this Agreement in respect to its rights as specifically provided for herein and under the applicable Non-Serviced Intercreditor Agreement.

(d)               Subject to Section 2.03(k)(ii), Section 2.03(l)(iv) and Section 2.03(l)(v), any Requesting Certificateholder shall be an express third-party beneficiary to this Agreement for purposes of exercising rights under Section 2.03(k) through Section 2.03(o).

(c)               The Certificate Administrator shall promptly furnish notice to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), and thereafter to the Rating Agencies of (i) any change in the location of the Distribution Accounts and (ii) the final payment to any Class of Certificateholders.

(d)               The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall furnish to the 17g-5 Information Provider for posting on the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website pursuant to Section 3.13(c), and thereafter to each Rating Agency (and any rating agency for any class of Serviced Companion Loan Securities to the extent applicable to any Serviced Whole Loan) with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any Non-Serviced Mortgage Loan) such information as any Rating Agency shall reasonably request and which the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, can reasonably provide in accordance with applicable law and without waiving any attorney-client privilege relating to such information or violating the terms of this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan documents. The Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and Special Servicer, as applicable, may include any reasonable disclaimer it deems appropriate with respect to such information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Section 13.10 shall require a party to provide duplicative notices or copies to the Rating Agencies with respect to any of the above listed items. In connection with the delivery by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer to the 17g-5 Information Provider of any information, report, notice or document for posting to the 17g-5 Information Provider’s Website, the 17g-5 Information Provider shall notify the Master Servicer or Special Servicer when such information, report, notice or document has been posted. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, may, but shall not be obligated to send such information, report, notice or document to the applicable Rating Agency so long as such information, report, notice or document (i) was previously provided to the 17g-5 Information Provider or (ii) is simultaneously provided to the 17g-5 Information Provider.

Section 13.11    Recognition of U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

(i)                                     In the event a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of this Agreement (and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, this Agreement) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement (and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, this Agreement) were governed by the laws of the United States or a State of the United States.

(ii)                                  In the event that a Covered Party or any BHC Affiliate of such Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a State of the United States.

(iii)                               For the purposes of this Section 13.11 and Section 13.12, the following definitions apply:

-462-

“BHC Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. §1841(k).

“Covered Party” means any party to this Agreement that is one of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §47.3(b), or any subsidiary of such a covered bank to which 12 C.F.R. Part 47 applies in accordance with 12 C.F.R. §47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

Section 13.12    Limitation on the Exercise of Certain Rights Related to Affiliate Insolvency Proceedings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other agreement, but subject to the requirements of Section 13.12, no party to this Agreement shall be permitted to exercise any Default Right against a Covered Party with respect to this Agreement that is related, directly or indirectly, to a BHC Affiliate of such party becoming subject to a receivership, insolvency, liquidation, resolution, or similar proceeding (each an “Insolvency Proceeding”), except to the extent the exercise of such Default Right would be permitted under the creditor protection provisions of 12 C.F.R. § 252.84, 12 C.F.R. § 47.5, or 12 C.F.R. § 382.4, as applicable.

After a BHC Affiliate of a Covered Party has become subject to Insolvency Proceedings, if any party to this Agreement seeks to exercise any Default Right against such Covered Party with respect to this Agreement, the party seeking to exercise a Default Right shall have the burden of proof, by clear and convincing evidence, that the exercise of such Default Right is permitted hereunder.

Section 13.13    Cooperation with the Mortgage Loan Sellers with Respect to Rights Under the Loan Agreements. It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Mortgage Loan documents, it is expressly intended that each Mortgage Loan Seller get the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Mortgage Loan documents. Therefore, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee hereby agree to reasonably cooperate with each Mortgage Loan Seller at the sole reasonable expense of such Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to the benefits of the provisions of any section of a loan agreement or securitization cooperation agreement related to indemnification of the lender and/or its Affiliates with respect to any securitization of the related Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, reassignment to the related Mortgage Loan Seller of such sections, but no other portion of the Mortgage Loan documents, to permit the related Mortgage Loan Seller and its respective Affiliates to enforce such provisions for their respective benefits; provided that none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee shall be required to take any action that is inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, would

-463-

violate applicable law, the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan documents, would adversely affect any Certificateholder, would cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC, or would result in the imposition of a “prohibited transaction” or “prohibited contribution” tax under the REMIC Provisions. To the extent that the Trustee is required to execute any document facilitating an assignment under this Section 13.13, such document shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(g) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

accordance with such amendment will not result in the imposition of a tax on any portion of the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC, or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Intercreditor Agreement or that otherwise materially and adversely affects the holder of a Companion Loan without the consent of the holder of the related Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates may, in that order of priority, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as contemplated by clause (ii) of the first paragraph of Section 9.01 in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-5, Class A-SB, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are no longer outstanding (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right, with the consent of the Master Servicer, to exchange all of the outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates together with the payment or deemed payment of the Termination Purchase Amount) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

THIS CERTIFIES THAT [___] is the registered owner of the interest evidenced by this Certificate in the Class R Certificates issued by the Trust created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated and effective as of February 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC (hereinafter called the “Depositor”, which term includes any successor entity under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Certificates of the series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing an interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the percentage interest specified on the face hereof. The Certificates are designated as the BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-C24, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-C24 and are issued in the classes as specifically set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Certificates will evidence in the aggregate 100% of the beneficial ownership of the Trust Fund.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and reference is made to that agreement for information with respect to the interests, rights, benefits, obligations, proceeds, and duties evidenced hereby and the rights, duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to which Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Certificateholder by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which the Certificateholder is bound. In the case of any conflict between terms specified in this Certificate and terms specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall govern.

This Class R Certificate represents the “residual interests” in two “real estate mortgage investment conduits”, as those terms are defined, respectively, in Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to treat, and take no action inconsistent with the treatment of, this Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence for purposes of federal income taxes, state and local income and franchise taxes and other taxes imposed on or measured by income. The Certificate Administrator is hereby designated as the “partnership representative” (within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code) of each Trust REMIC. Each holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, consents to the Certificate Administrator making any elections allowed under the Code (a) to avoid the application of Section 6221 (or successor provision) to the Trust REMICs and (b) to avoid payment by the Trust REMICs under Section 6225 of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on a Holder of this Certificate. Each Holder of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, agrees to any such elections and to reasonably cooperate with the Certificate Administrator in connection with any such elections the Certificate Administrator determines in its discretion are necessary or advisable.

Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, distributions, if any, on this Certificate shall be made by the Certificate Administrator in an amount equal to such Person’s pro rata share (based on the Percentage Interest represented by this Certificate) thereof and to the extent and subject to the limitations set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, on the Distribution Date to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as of the related Record Date. All sums distributable on this Certificate are payable in the coin or

A-2-4

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Collection Account and the Distribution Accounts will be held on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Certificates specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer (with respect to the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (with respect to the Distribution Accounts) will be authorized to make withdrawals therefrom. Amounts on deposit in such accounts may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 3.06 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Interest or other investment income earned on funds in the Collection Account will be paid to the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account shall be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of certain expenses incurred with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans and administration of the Trust.

All distributions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to a Class of Certificates shall be made on each Distribution Date (other than the final distribution on any Certificate) to Certificateholders of record on the related Record Date by check mailed to the address set forth therefor in the Certificate Register or, provided that such Certificateholder has provided the Certificate Administrator with wire instructions at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor. The final distribution on this Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of Realized Losses previously allocated to this Certificate) shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held uninvested in trust and credited to the account or accounts of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to Section 4.01(g) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Certificate Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto.

The costs and expenses of holding such funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders following the first anniversary of the delivery of such second notice to the non-tendering Certificateholders shall be paid out of such funds. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by the Certificate Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with Section 4.01(g) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register only upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of Transfer at the office of the Certificate Registrar or at the office of its transfer agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized Denominations will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Certificate Registrar may require payment by each transferor of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, expense or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such transfer or exchange.

(iv)                change in any manner any defined term used in any Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the obligations of any Mortgage Loan Seller, related Additional Repurchase Obligor or related guarantor under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or otherwise change any rights of any Mortgage Loan Seller, related Additional Repurchase Obligor or related guarantor under such Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement as a third party beneficiary under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of such Mortgage Loan Seller, related Additional Repurchase Obligor or related guarantor; or

(v)                   amend the Servicing Standard without the consent of 100% of the Certificateholders or receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency and confirmation of the applicable rating agencies that such action will not result in the downgrade, withdrawal or qualification of its then-current

A-2-8

ratings of any securities related to a Companion Loan, if any (provided that such rating agency confirmation may be considered satisfied in the same manner as any Rating Agency Confirmation may be considered satisfied with respect to the Certificates pursuant to Section 3.25 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and, if required under the related Intercreditor Agreement, the consent of the holder of any AB Subordinate Companion Loan for each Serviced AB Whole Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer will be required to consent to any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement without having first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the Trust’s expense) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, that all conditions precedent have been satisfied and that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or any other specified person in accordance with such amendment will not result in the imposition of a tax on any portion of the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC, or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the relevant provisions of the Code. Furthermore, no amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement may be made that changes any provisions specifically required to be included in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by any Intercreditor Agreement or that otherwise materially and adversely affects the holder of a Companion Loan without the consent of the holder of the related Companion Loan(s).

The Holders of the majority of the Controlling Class, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Holders of the Class R Certificates may, in that order of priority, at their option, upon no less than 60 days’ prior written notice given to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and each of the other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans (and all property acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any related Mortgage Loan) and the Trust’s portion of each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and thereby effect termination of the Trust and early retirement of the then-outstanding Certificates, on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans and the portion of any REO Loans held by the Trust is less than 1.0% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans.

Following the date on which the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-5, Class A-SB, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Certificates are no longer outstanding (and provided that there is only one Holder (or multiple Holders acting in unanimity) of the then-outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates)), the Sole Certificateholder shall have the right, with the consent of the Master Servicer, to exchange all of the outstanding Certificates (other than the Class R Certificates together with the payment or deemed payment of the Termination Purchase Amount) for all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

The obligations created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligation of the Certificate Administrator to make payments to Certificateholders as provided for in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), shall terminate upon reduction of the Certificate Balances of all the Certificates to zero (including, without limitation, any such final payment resulting from a termination of the Trust due to a sale of its property) pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event, however, will the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or be valid for any purpose. The Certificate Registrar has executed this Certificate on behalf of the Trust as Certificate Registrar under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and makes no representation or warranty as to any of the statements contained herein or the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans.

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES APPLIED IN NEW YORK.

☐ The Purchaser is a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”) within the meaning of Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) under the Securities Act. The Purchaser is aware that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, and the Purchaser has had the opportunity to obtain the information required to be provided pursuant to paragraph (d)(4)(i) of Rule 144A.

 

2.       The Purchaser’s intention is to acquire the Certificates (a) for investment for the Purchaser’s own account or (b) for reoffer, resale, pledge or other transfer (i) to QIBs in transactions under Rule 144A, and not in any event with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, or (ii) (other than with respect to a Class R Certificate) to Institutional Accredited Investors, subject in the case of clause (ii) above to (w) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a letter substantially in the form hereof, (x) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Trustee and Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act, (y) the receipt by the Certificate Registrar of such other evidence acceptable to the Certificate Registrar that such reoffer, resale, pledge or transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act and other applicable laws and (z) a written undertaking to reimburse the Trust for any costs incurred by it in connection with the proposed transfer. The Purchaser understands that the Certificates (and any subsequent Certificates) have not been registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specified exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Purchaser’s investment intent (or intent to reoffer, resell, pledge or transfer the Certificates only to certain investors in certain exempted transactions) as expressed herein.

3.       The Purchaser has reviewed the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus relating to the Offered Certificates (collectively, the “Prospectus”) (and, with respect to Non-Registered Certificates, the Preliminary Private Placement Memorandum and the Final Private Placement Memorandum related to such Non-Registered Certificates) and the agreements and other materials referred to therein and has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Prospectus.

4.       The Purchaser acknowledges that the Certificates (and any Certificates issued on transfer or exchange thereof) have not been registered or qualified under the Securities

Exhibit C-2

Act or the securities laws of any State or any other jurisdiction, and that the Certificates cannot be reoffered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred unless it is registered or qualified thereunder or unless an exemption from such registration or qualification is available.

5.       The Purchaser hereby undertakes to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in its capacity as an owner of a Certificate or Certificates, as the case may be (each, a “Certificateholder”), in all respects as if it were a signatory thereto. This undertaking is made for the benefit of the Trust, the Certificate Registrar and all Certificateholders present and future.

6.       The Purchaser will not sell or otherwise transfer any portion of the Certificate or Certificates, except in compliance with Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

The Purchaser agrees to provide to the Certificate Registrar updated [IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS Form W-8IMY or]*** IRS Form W-8ECI, [as the case may be,]*** any applicable successor IRS forms, or such other certifications as the Certificate Registrar may reasonably request, on or before the date that any such IRS form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent IRS form of certification furnished by it to the Certificate Registrar.

Re: BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-C24, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-C24 (the “Certificates”) issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), dated and effective as of February 1, 2024, among Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, KeyBank National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and BellOak, LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer.

STATE OF	)
	)   ss.:
COUNTY OF	)

I, [______], under penalties of perjury, declare that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the following representations are true, correct and complete, and being first sworn, depose and say that:

1.       I am a [______] of [______] (the “Purchaser”), on behalf of which I have the authority to make this affidavit.

2.       The Purchaser is acquiring Class R Certificates representing [__]% of the residual interest in each of the real estate mortgage investment conduits (each, a “REMIC” or “Trust REMIC”) designated as the (i)  “Lower-Tier REMIC” and (ii) “Upper-Tier REMIC”, respectively, relating to the Certificates for which an election is to be made under Section 860D of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

3.       The Purchaser is not a “Disqualified Organization” (as defined below), and that the Purchaser is not acquiring the Class R Certificates for the account of, or as agent or nominee of, or with a view to the transfer of direct or indirect record or beneficial ownership thereof, to a Disqualified Organization. For the purposes hereof, a Disqualified Organization is any of the following: (i) the United States, any State or political subdivision thereof, any possession of the United States or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other

Exhibit D-1-1

than an instrumentality which is a corporation if all of its activities are subject to tax and, except for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, a majority of its board of directors is not selected by such governmental unit), (ii) a foreign government, any international organization or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing, (iii) any organization which is exempt from the tax imposed by Chapter 1 of the Code (including the tax imposed by Section 511 of the Code on unrelated business taxable income) on any excess inclusions (as defined in Section 860E(c)(1) of the Code) with respect to the Class R Certificates (except certain farmers’ cooperatives described in Section 521 of the Code), (iv) rural electric and telephone cooperatives described in Section 1381(a)(2)(C) of the Code and (v) any other Person so designated by the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator based upon an Opinion of Counsel as provided to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator (at no expense to the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator) that the holding of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate by such Person may cause a Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or any Person having an Ownership Interest in any Class of Certificates (other than such Person) to incur a liability for any federal tax imposed under the Code that would not otherwise be imposed but for the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate to such Person. The terms “United States,” “State” and “international organization” shall have the meanings set forth in Section 7701 of the Code or successor provisions.

4.       The Purchaser acknowledges that Section 860E(e) of the Code would impose a substantial tax on the transferor or, in certain circumstances, on an agent for the transferee, with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Class R Certificates to a Disqualified Organization.

5.       The Purchaser is a Permitted Transferee and, to the extent applicable, the Purchaser’s U.S. taxpayer identification number is [__________].

6.       No purpose of the acquisition of the Class R Certificates is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

7.       The Purchaser will not cause income from the Class R Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Purchaser or any other person.

8.       Check the applicable paragraph:

☐                 The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the Class R Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:

(i)                the present value of any consideration given to the Purchaser to acquire such Class R Certificate;

(ii)             the present value of the expected future distributions on such Class R Certificate; and

(iii)          the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding such Class R Certificate as the related Trust REMIC generates losses.

Exhibit D-1-2

For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Purchaser is assumed to pay tax at the rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but the tax rate in Section 55(b) of the Code may be used in lieu of the corporate income tax rate specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Purchaser has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the preceding two years and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period used by the Purchaser.

☐                 The transfer of the Class R Certificate complies with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,

(i)                the Purchaser is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the Class R Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;

(ii)             at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Purchaser’s two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the Purchaser had gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person related to the Purchaser within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10 million;

(iii)          the Purchaser will transfer the Class R Certificate only to another “eligible corporation,” as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(5); and

(iv)         the Purchaser determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Class R Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including, but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific to the Purchaser) that it has determined in good faith.

☐                 None of the above.

9.       The Purchaser historically has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future and the Purchaser intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Class R Certificates as they become due.

10.     The Purchaser understands that it may incur tax liabilities with respect to the Class R Certificate in excess of any cash flows generated by such Certificate.

11.     The Purchaser is aware that the Certificate Registrar will not register any transfer of a Class R Certificate by the Transferor unless the Purchaser, or such Purchaser’s agent, delivers to the Certificate Registrar, among other things, an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement. The Purchaser expressly agrees that it will not consummate any such transfer if it knows or believes that any representation contained in such affidavit and agreement is false.

Exhibit D-1-3

12.       The Purchaser represents that it is not acquiring the Class R Certificate as a nominee, trustee or agent for any person that is not a Permitted Transferee and that for so long as it retains its interest in the Class R Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee.

13.       The Purchaser consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificate will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by a Permitted Transferee.

14.       The Purchaser has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, a description of which provisions is set forth in the Class R Certificates; and the Purchaser expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such provisions.

15.       The Purchaser consents to the (i) designation of the Certificate Administrator as the “partnership representative” (as defined in Section 6223 of the Code) of each Trust REMIC pursuant to Section 10.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and (ii) Certificate Administrator making any elections allowed under the Code (a) to avoid the application of Section 6221 (or successor provision) to the Trust REMICs and (b) to avoid payment by the Trust REMICs under Section 6225 of any tax, penalty, interest or other amount imposed under the Code that would otherwise be imposed on a Holder of Class R Certificates. The Purchaser agrees, by acquiring such certificate, to any such elections and to reasonably cooperate with the Certificate Administrator in connection with any such elections the Certificate Administrator determines in its discretion are necessary or advisable.

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Re: BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-C24, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-C24 (the “Certificates”)

To the above-mentioned addressees:

This letter is delivered to you in connection with the transfer by [______] (the “Transferor”) to [______] (the “Transferee”) of Class R Certificates evidencing a [__]% Percentage Interest in such Class (the “Residual Certificates”). The Certificates, including the Residual Certificates, were issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated and effective as of February 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, KeyBank National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and BellOak, LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as Certificate Registrar, that:

(1)       No purpose of the Transferor relating to the transfer of the Residual Certificates by the Transferor to the Transferee is or will be to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.

(2)       The Transferor understands that the Transferee has delivered to you a Transferee Affidavit in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit D-1. The Transferor does not know or believe that any representation contained therein is false.

(3)       The Transferor has at the time of this transfer conducted a reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Transferee as contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i) and, as a result of that investigation, the Transferor has determined that the Transferee has historically paid its debts as they became due and has found no significant evidence to indicate that the Transferee will not continue to pay its debts as they become due in the future. The Transferor understands that the transfer of the Residual Certificates may not be respected for United States income tax purposes (and the Transferor may

continue to be liable for United States income taxes associated therewith) unless the Transferor has conducted such an investigation.

a. was or becomes generally available to the public (including through filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission or disclosure in an offering document) other than as a result of a disclosure by you or a NRSRO Representative (as defined in Section 2(c)(i) below) in violation of this Confidentiality Agreement;

b. was or is lawfully obtained by you from a source other than a Furnishing Entity or its representatives that (i) is reasonably believed by you to be under no obligation to maintain the information as confidential and (ii) provides it to you without any obligation to maintain the information as confidential; or

c. is independently developed by the NRSRO without reference to any Confidential Information.

Exhibit P-2-3

2. Information to Be Held in Confidence.

a. You will use the Confidential Information solely for the purpose of determining or monitoring a credit rating on the Certificates and, to the extent that any information used is derived from but does not reveal any Confidential Information, for benchmarking, modeling or research purposes (the “Intended Purpose”).

b. You acknowledge that you are aware that the United States and state securities laws impose restrictions on trading in securities when in possession of material, non-public information and that the NRSRO will advise (through policy manuals or otherwise) each NRSRO Representative who is informed of the matters that are the subject of this Confidentiality Agreement to that effect.

c. You will treat the Confidential Information as private and confidential. Subject to Section 4, without the prior written consent of the applicable Furnishing Entity, you will not disclose to any person any Confidential Information, whether such Confidential Information was furnished to you before, on or after the date of this Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may:

i. disclose the Confidential Information to any of the NRSRO’s affiliates, directors, officers, employees, legal representatives, agents and advisors (each, a “NRSRO Representative”) who, in the reasonable judgment of the NRSRO, need to know such Confidential Information in connection with the Intended Purpose; provided, that, prior to disclosure of the Confidential Information to a NRSRO Representative, the NRSRO shall have taken reasonable precautions to ensure, and shall be satisfied, that such NRSRO Representative will act in accordance with this Confidentiality Agreement;

ii. solely to the extent required for compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3) of the Act (17 C.F.R. 240.17g-5), post the Confidential Information to the NRSRO’s password protected website; and

iii. use information derived from the Confidential Information in connection with an Intended Purpose, if such derived information does not reveal any Confidential Information.

3. Disclosures Required by Law. If you or any NRSRO Representative is requested or required (orally or in writing, by interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigatory demand, request for information or documents, deposition or similar process relating to any legal proceeding, investigation, hearing or otherwise) to disclose any Confidential Information, you agree to provide the relevant Furnishing Entity with notice as soon as practicable (except in the case of regulatory or other governmental inquiry, examination or investigation, and otherwise to the extent practical and permitted by law, regulation or regulatory or other governmental authority) that a request to disclose the Confidential Information has been made so that the relevant Furnishing Entity may seek an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will

Exhibit P-2-4

be accorded the Confidential Information if it so chooses. Unless otherwise required by a court or other governmental or regulatory authority to do so, and provided that you been informed by written notice that the related Furnishing Entity is seeking a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment with respect to the requested Confidential Information, you agree not to disclose the Confidential Information while the Furnishing Entity’s effort to obtain such a protective order or other reasonable assurance for confidential treatment is pending. You agree to reasonably cooperate with each Furnishing Entity in its efforts to obtain a protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the portion of the Confidential Information that is being disclosed, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity; provided, however, that in no event shall the NRSRO be required to take a position that such information should be entitled to receive such a protective order or reasonable assurance as to confidential treatment. If a Furnishing Entity succeeds in obtaining a protective order or other remedy, you agree to comply with its terms with respect to the disclosure of the Confidential Information, at the sole expense of such Furnishing Entity. If a protective order or other remedy is not obtained or if the relevant Furnishing Entity waives compliance with the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement in writing, you agree to furnish only such information as you are legally required to disclose, at the sole expense of the relevant Furnishing Entity.

4. Obligation to Return Evaluation Material. Promptly upon written request by or on behalf of the relevant Furnishing Entity, all material or documents, including copies thereof, that contain Evaluation Material will be destroyed or, in your sole discretion, returned to the relevant Furnishing Entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the NRSRO may retain one or more copies of any document or other material containing Evaluation Material to the extent necessary for legal or regulatory compliance (or compliance with the NRSRO’s internal policies and procedures designed to ensure legal or regulatory compliance) and (b) the NRSRO may retain any portion of the Evaluation Material that may be found in backup tapes or other archive or electronic media or other documents prepared by the NRSRO and any Evaluation Material obtained in an oral communication; provided, that any Evaluation Material so retained by the NRSRO will remain subject to this Confidentiality Agreement and the NRSRO will remain bound by the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement.

5. Violations of this Confidentiality Agreement.

a. The NRSRO will be responsible for any breach of this Confidentiality Agreement by you, the NRSRO or any NRSRO Representative.

b. You agree promptly to advise each relevant Furnishing Entity in writing of any misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure or use by any person of the Confidential Information which may come to your attention and to take all steps reasonably requested by such Furnishing Entity to limit, stop or otherwise remedy such misappropriation, or unauthorized disclosure or use.

c. You acknowledge and agree that the Furnishing Entities would not have an adequate remedy at law and would be irreparably harmed in the event that any of the provisions of this Confidentiality Agreement were not performed in

Exhibit P-2-5

accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that each Furnishing Entity shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief to prevent breaches of this Confidentiality Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which a Furnishing Entity may be entitled at law or in equity. It is further understood and agreed that no failure to or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege.

6. Term. Notwithstanding the termination or cancellation of this Confidentiality Agreement and regardless of whether the NRSRO has provided a credit rating on a Security, your obligations under this Confidentiality Agreement will survive indefinitely.

7. Governing Law. This Confidentiality Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under the Confidentiality Agreement, the relationships of the parties and/or the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed within such State.

8. Amendments. This Confidentiality Agreement may be modified or waived only by a separate writing by the NRSRO and each Furnishing Entity.

9. Entire Agreement. This Confidentiality Agreement represents the entire agreement between you and the Furnishing Entities relating to the treatment of Confidential Information heretofore or hereafter reviewed or inspected by you. This agreement supersedes all other understandings and agreements between us relating to such matters; provided, however, that, if the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement conflict with another agreement relating to the Confidential Information that specifically states that the terms of such agreement shall supersede, modify or amend the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement, then to the extent the terms of this Confidentiality Agreement conflict with such agreement, the terms of such agreement shall control notwithstanding acceptance by you of the terms hereof by entry into this website.

Re: BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-C24, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-C24

Mortgage Loan (the “Mortgage Loan”) identified by loan number _____ [and loan number [_______]] on the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and heretofore secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule by the following names:____________________
       ____________________

Reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement described above. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Exhibit U-1

As Master Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, we hereby:

(a)   Notify you that the Mortgagor has consummated a defeasance of the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan, of the type checked below:

____     a full defeasance of the entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; or

____     a partial defeasance of a portion of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan that represents and, an allocated loan amount of $____________ or _______% of the entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan;

(b)               Certify that each of the following is true, subject to those exceptions set forth with explanatory notes on Exhibit A hereto, which exceptions the Master Servicer has determined, consistent with the Servicing Standards, will have no material adverse effect on the Mortgage Loan or the defeasance transaction:

(i)                           The Mortgage Loan documents permit the defeasance, and the terms and conditions for defeasance specified therein were satisfied in all material respects in completing the defeasance.

(ii)                        The defeasance was consummated on __________, 20__.

(iii)                     The defeasance collateral consists of securities that (i) constitute “government securities” as defined in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (15 U.S.C. 80A1), (ii) are listed as “Qualified Investments for ‘AAA’ Financings” under Paragraphs 1, 2 or 3 of “Cash Flow Approach” in Standard & Poor’s Public Finance Criteria 2000, as amended to the date of the defeasance, (iii) if they include a principal obligation, the principal due at maturity cannot vary or change, and (iv) are not subject to prepayment, call or early redemption.

(iv)                      The Master Servicer received an opinion of counsel (from counsel approved by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard) that the defeasance will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.

(v)                         The Master Servicer determined that the defeasance collateral will be owned by an entity (the “Defeasance Obligor”) that is a Single-Purpose Entity (as defined in Standard & Poor’s Structured Finance Ratings Real Estate Finance Criteria, as amended to the date of the defeasance (the “S&P Criteria”)) or is subject to restrictions in its organizational documents substantially similar to those contained in the organization documents of the original Borrower with respect to bankruptcy remoteness and single purpose as of the date of the defeasance, and after the defeasance owns no assets other than the defeasance collateral and real property securing Mortgage Loans included in the pool.

(vi)                      The defeasance documents require the crediting of the defeasance collateral to an Eligible Account (as defined in the S&P Criteria) in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, which account is maintained as a securities account by a securities intermediary and has been pledged to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust.

Exhibit U-2

(vii)                  The agreements executed in connection with the defeasance (i) grant control of the pledged securities account to Trustee on behalf of the Trust, (ii) require the securities intermediary to make the scheduled payments on the Mortgage Loan from the proceeds of the defeasance collateral directly to the Master Servicer’s collection account in the amounts and on the dates specified in the Mortgage Loan documents or, in a partial defeasance, the portion of such scheduled payments attributed to the allocated loan amount for the real property defeased, increased by any defeasance premium specified in the Mortgage Loan documents (the “Scheduled Payments”), (iii) permit reinvestment of proceeds of the defeasance collateral only in Permitted Investments (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or as defined in the documents evidencing the defeasance), (iv) permit release of surplus defeasance collateral and earnings on reinvestment from the pledged securities account only after the Mortgage Loan has been paid in full, if any such release is permitted, (v) prohibit transfers by the Defeasance Obligor of the defeasance collateral and subordinate liens against the defeasance collateral, and (vi) provide for payment from sources other than the defeasance collateral or other assets of the Defeasance Obligor of all fees and expenses of the securities intermediary for administering the defeasance and the securities account and all fees and expenses of maintaining the existence of the Defeasance Obligor.

(viii)               The Master Servicer received written confirmation from a firm of independent certified public accountants, who were approved by the Master Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard stating that (i) revenues from the defeasance collateral (without taking into account any earnings on reinvestment of such revenues) will be sufficient to timely pay each of the Scheduled Payments after the defeasance including the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan (or the allocated portion thereof in connection with a partial defeasance) on its Maturity Date, (ii) the revenues received in any month from the defeasance collateral will be applied to make Scheduled Payments within four (4) months after the date of receipt, and (iii) interest income from the defeasance collateral to the Defeasance Obligor in any calendar or fiscal year will not exceed such Defeasance Obligor’s interest expense for the Mortgage Loan (or the allocated portion thereof in a partial defeasance) for such year.

(ix)                      The Mortgage Loan is not among the ten (10) largest loans in the pool as of the date of the Current Report (as defined below). The entire principal balance of the Mortgage Loan as of the date of defeasance was less than both $[______] and five percent of pool balance, which is less than [__]% of the aggregate Certificate Balance of the Certificates as of the date of the most recent Distribution Date Statement received by us (the “Current Report”).

(x)                         The Master Servicer has received opinions of counsel stating that the Trustee on behalf of the Trust possesses a valid, perfected first priority security interest in the defeasance collateral and that the documents executed in connection with the defeasance are enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.

(c)           Certify that Exhibit B hereto is a list of the material agreements, instruments, organizational documents for the Defeasance Obligor, and opinions of counsel and independent accountants executed and delivered in connection with the defeasance.

Exhibit U-3

(d)           Certify that the individual under whose hand the Master Servicer has caused this Notice and Certification to be executed did constitute a Servicing Officer as of the date of the defeasance described above.

(e)            Agree to provide copies of all items listed in Exhibit B to you upon request.

¹                  This report is an indicative report and does not reflect the final form of annual report to be used in any particular year.

Exhibit V-1

(b) with respect to following Specially Serviced Loans, each related Asset Status Report and the opportunity to consult with respect to such recommended action:

II. Executive Summary

Based on the requirements and qualifications set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as well as the items listed below, the Operating Advisor (in accordance with the Operating Advisor’s analysis requirements outlined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) has undertaken a limited review of the Special Servicer’s reported actions under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on the loans identified in this report. Based solely on such limited review and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set forth herein, the Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer [is/is not] operating in compliance with the Servicing Standard with respect to its performance of its duties under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement during the prior calendar year on a “trust-level basis”. [The Operating Advisor believes, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that the Special Servicer has failed to materially comply with the Servicing Standard as a result of the following material deviations.]

● [LIST OF MATERIAL DEVIATION ITEMS]

In addition, the Operating Advisor notes the following: [PROVIDE SUMMARY OF ANY ADDITIONAL MATERIAL INFORMATION].

● [ADD RECOMMENDATION OF REPLACEMENT OF SPECIAL SERVICER, IF APPLICABLE]

III.       List of Items that were Considered in Compiling this Report

In rendering the assessment set forth in this report, the Operating Advisor examined and relied upon the accuracy and the completion of the items listed below:

1.      Any Major Decision Reporting Package that is delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor by the Special Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

2.      Reports by the Special Servicer made available to Privileged Persons that are posted on the certificate administrator’s website that is relevant to the Operating Advisor’s obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, each Asset Status Report (after an Operating Advisor Consultation Event), and each Final Asset Status Report, in each case, delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

3.      The Special Servicer’s assessment of compliance report, attestation report by a third party regarding the Special Servicer’s compliance with its obligations and net present value

Exhibit V-2

calculations and Appraisal Reduction Amount calculations delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

4.      [LIST OTHER REVIEWED INFORMATION].

5.      [INSERT IF AFTER AN OPERATING ADVISOR CONSULTATION EVENT: Consulted with the Special Servicer as provided under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on Asset Status Reports for a Specially Serviced Loan delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and with respect to Major Decisions processed by the Special Servicer.]

NOTE: The Operating Advisor’s review of the above materials should be considered a limited review and not be considered a full or limited audit, legal review or legal conclusion. For instance, we did not review each page of the Special Servicer’s policy and procedure manuals (including amendments and appendices), review underlying lease agreements or similar underlying documents, re-engineer the quantitative aspects of their net present value calculations, visit any related property, visit the Special Servicer, visit the Directing Certificateholder or interact with any borrower. In addition, our review of the net present value calculations and Appraisal Reduction Amount calculations is limited to the mathematical accuracy of the calculations and the corresponding application of the non-discretionary portions of the applicable formulas, and as such, does not take into account the reasonableness of the discretionary portions of such formulas.

IV. Assumptions, Qualifications Related to the Work Product Undertaken and Opinions Related to this Report

1.      As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Operating Advisor (i) is not required to report on instances of non-compliance with, or deviations from, the Servicing Standard or the special servicer’s obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement that the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, to be immaterial and (ii) will not be required in the ordinary course to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion as part of that assessment.

2.      In rendering our assessment herein, we have assumed that all executed factual statements, instruments, and other documents that we have relied upon in rendering this assessment have been executed by persons with legal capacity to execute such documents.

3.      Other than the receipt of any Major Decision Reporting Package or any Asset Status Report that is delivered or made available to the Operating Advisor pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Operating Advisor did not participate in, or have access to, the Special Servicer’s and Directing Certificateholder’s discussion(s) regarding any Specially Serviced Loan. The Operating Advisor does not have authority to speak with the Directing Certificateholder or Mortgagor directly. As such, the Operating Advisor generally relied upon the information delivered to it by the Special Servicer as well as its interaction with the Special Servicer, if any, in gathering the relevant information to generate this report. The services that we perform are not designed and cannot be relied upon to detect fraud or illegal acts should any exist.

Exhibit V-3

4.      The Special Servicer has the legal authority and responsibility to service any Specially Serviced Loans pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Operating Advisor has no responsibility or authority to alter the standards set forth therein or direct the actions of the Special Servicer.

5.      Confidentiality and other contractual limitations limit the Operating Advisor’s ability to outline the details or substance of any communications held between it and the Special Servicer regarding any Specially Serviced Loans and certain information it reviewed in connection with its duties under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As a result, this report may not reflect all the relevant information that the Operating Advisor is given access to by the Special Servicer.

6.      There are many tasks that the Special Servicer undertakes on an ongoing basis related to Specially Serviced Loans. These include, but are not limited to, assumptions, ownership changes, collateral substitutions, capital reserve changes, etc. The Operating Advisor does not participate in any discussions regarding such actions. As such, the Operating Advisor has not assessed the Special Servicer’s operational compliance with respect to those types of actions.

7.      The Operating Advisor is not empowered to speak with any investors directly. If the investors have questions regarding this report, they should address such questions to the certificate administrator through the certificate administrator’s website.

8.      This report does not constitute recommendations to buy, sell or hold any security, nor does the Operating Advisor take into account market prices of securities or financial markets generally when performing its limited review of the Special Servicer as described above. The Operating Advisor does not have a fiduciary relationship with any Certificateholder or any other party or individual. Nothing is intended to or should be construed as creating a fiduciary relationship between the Operating Advisor and any Certificateholder, party or individual.

Terms used but not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Re: Access to Certain Information Regarding BBCMS Mortgage Trust 2024-C24, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-C24

To the above-mentioned addressees:

Reference is hereby made to that certain Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated and effective as of February 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among Barclays Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, as Depositor, KeyBank National Association, as Master Servicer, Argentic Services Company LP, as Special Servicer, Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as Certificate Administrator and as Trustee, and BellOak, LLC, as Operating Advisor and as Asset Representations Reviewer. Defined terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

[KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”)/Argentic Services Company LP (“ASC”)] understands that [____] (the “Company”) is requesting certain confidential or non-public information relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Company has continuing rights as a Certificateholder. The Company is requesting such information for the purpose of analyzing asset performance and evaluating any continuing rights the Company may have under the Trust (the “Permitted Purpose”). The Company agrees that the Permitted Purpose shall not include the use or disclosure of the Confidential Information (as defined below) in any manner that violates any applicable law, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the related mortgage loan documents.

[KeyBank/ASC] will provide the Company with certain confidential, non-public servicing information (the “Confidential Information”) pertaining to the Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgaged Properties and borrowers. The Company acknowledges that the Confidential

Exhibit X-1

Information (a) includes or may be based upon information provided to [KeyBank/ASC] by third parties, (b) may not have been verified by [KeyBank/ASC], and (c) may be incomplete or contain inaccuracies. The Company agrees that [KeyBank/ASC], the [“Master Servicer”/“Special Servicer”] (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) and its respective Representatives (as defined below) shall not have any liability to the Company or its Representatives resulting from (x) any inaccuracies or omissions in the Confidential Information, (y) any use of the Confidential Information, or (z) [KeyBank/ASC]’s failure or inability to provide the Confidential Information to the Company for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following will not constitute “Confidential Information” for purposes of this letter agreement: (a) information that was already in Company’s possession prior to its receipt from [KeyBank/ASC]; (b) information that is obtained by Company from a third person who, insofar as is known to Company, is not prohibited from transmitting the information to Company by a contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation to [KeyBank/ASC]; (c) information that is or becomes publicly available through no fault of Company; and (d) information that is independently developed by Company. The term “Representatives” with respect to any entity shall mean the officers, directors, general partners, employees, agents, affiliates, auditors and legal counsel (which may be internal counsel) of that entity.

The Company may have access to the Confidential Information through (at [KeyBank/ASC]’s election): (i) responses to reasonable written inquiries received from the Company, (ii) conference calls conducted on a reasonably scheduled basis with [KeyBank/ASC]’s surveillance group, or (iii) direct on-line access (read-only capacity) to the information available on the applicable [____] system or any successor or replacement system (“System”). [KeyBank/ASC] may cease or defer providing the Company with Confidential Information in the event that (a) the Company or its Representatives violate any provision hereof, or (b) [KeyBank/ASC] determines (in its sole discretion) that such termination is necessary for any reason, including its determination that such action is required pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the related Mortgage Loan documents, or any applicable law. [KeyBank/ASC] shall cease to provide the Company with Confidential Information if [KeyBank/ASC] has actual knowledge that the Company or its Representatives are affiliates of any borrower under the Mortgage Loan documents and [KeyBank/ASC] determines that the provision, notice or access to such Confidential Information would violate the accepted servicing practices or servicing standards as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Company’s obligations and the restrictions applicable to the protection of the Confidential Information hereunder shall survive the termination of the Company’s access to the Confidential Information. [KeyBank/ASC]’s remedies hereunder, at law or at equity, are cumulative and may be combined.

The Company agrees that it will not, and it shall not permit its Representatives, to disclose the Confidential Information in any manner whatsoever to any other person or entity, other than its Representatives (but only to the extent necessary to accomplish the Permitted Purpose) who have a need to know the information, or as otherwise required by applicable law, court order or any governmental agency or regulator. The Company acknowledges (i) its obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws, and (ii) that any disclosure of the Confidential Information by it or its Representatives for any purpose other than a Permitted Purpose, in addition to being a breach of this letter agreement, may constitute a violation of federal and state securities laws. The Company will take reasonable measures to ensure that each Representative

Exhibit X-2

is advised of this letter agreement and agrees to keep the Confidential Information confidential. The Company shall be liable for any breach of this letter agreement by its Representatives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may subsequently provide all or any part of such Confidential Information to any other person or entity that holds or is contemplating the purchase of any Certificate or interest therein, but only if such person or entity confirms such ownership interest or prospective ownership interest and provided that, prior to the delivery of such Confidential Information, such persons shall have executed and delivered to the Company an agreement that is substantially similar in form and substance to this agreement.

If the provisions of this Agreement are breached by the Company or its Representatives, Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless [KeyBank/ASC] its successors and assigns, from and against any resulting loss, cost, damage or expense undertaken, paid, awarded, assessed, incurred or suffered by [KeyBank/ASC]. Company shall be liable to [KeyBank/ASC] for all court costs, reasonable and out of pocket attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by [KeyBank/ASC] in enforcing its rights under this Agreement, recovering damages and/or obtaining other appropriate relief.

This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without the application of conflict of laws principles. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, [KeyBank/ASC] intends at all times to comply with the terms and provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and nothing in this letter agreement should be construed to limit or qualify any of [KeyBank/ASC]’s rights or obligations under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. This letter agreement may be executed in counterparts and by facsimile/Portable Document Format (PDF); each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts together shall constitute one agreement.

This agreement shall terminate with respect to the information received by the Company one year after the Company receives such information or ceases to be a Certificateholder. Company agrees that this letter agreement supersedes and replaces and survives any click-through agreement regarding confidentiality of Confidential Information agreed to in connection with accessing the System whether agreed to in accessing the System before or after signing this letter agreement.

ASSET REVIEW PROCEDURES

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the “PSA”), the Asset Representations Reviewer (“Asset Representations Reviewer”) shall perform an Asset Review with respect to each representation and warranty made by the related Mortgage Loan Seller only with respect to each Delinquent Loan in accordance with the procedures set forth below (each such procedure, a “Test”); provided, however, the Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, modify any Test and/or associated Review Materials described in this Exhibit QQ if, and only to the extent, the Asset Representations Reviewer determines pursuant to the Asset Review Standard that it is necessary to modify such Test and/or such associated Review Materials in order to facilitate its Asset Review in accordance with the Asset Review Standard. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the PSA or, solely with respect to a representation and warranty, the meaning set forth in the related mortgage loan purchase agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement”). For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the performance of the following Tests:

 

(A) With respect to any representation and warranty that includes a knowledge qualifier (e.g., to the Mortgage Loan Seller’s knowledge, etc.), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be responsible for any investigation or review beyond that set forth in the applicable Test related to such representation and warranty;

 

(B) With respect to any representation and warranty that includes the examination of an insurance policy or Title Policy, the Asset Representations Reviewer will be permitted to engage a qualified consultant to perform a review of the applicable policy, and will be allowed to rely upon the conclusions of the consultant when making a determination as to whether there is a Test pass.

 

(C) The Asset Representations Reviewer shall be under no duty to provide or obtain a legal opinion, legal review or legal conclusion;

 

(D) Unless otherwise provided in the Test, the “as of” date for the testing of a representation is as of the Closing Date;

 

(E) Unless otherwise provided in the Test, if there is more than one version of the same document with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged Property, the document that will be used by the Asset Representations Reviewer in testing is the document that is dated as of the Closing Date or, if none, the document closest prior to the Closing Date;

 

(F) With respect to each representation and warranty and its related Test(s), the Asset Representations Reviewer shall take into account any exceptions to such representation and warranty described in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to a Mortgage Loan, and a Test pass shall be deemed to have occurred

Exhibit QQ-1

with respect to such Test if the sole reason for not satisfying the applicable Test is caused by such exception(s);

 

(G) Evidence of a failure of a Test could result from (i) an affirmative determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer that the Test failed to achieve a Test pass, or (ii) a determination by Asset Representations Reviewer that the documentation included in the Review Materials (after making such request for any missing documents in the manner provided for in the PSA) is not sufficient to perform the Test; and

(H) A determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer of a Test pass or a Test failure shall not constitute a determination by the Asset Representations Reviewer of (i) the existence or nonexistence of a Material Defect, or (ii) whether the Trust should enforce any rights it may have against the applicable Mortgage Loan Seller.

The Asset Representations Reviewer will only be required to perform the Tests described in this Exhibit QQ, and will not be obligated to perform additional procedures on any Delinquent Loan, even if a different set of procedures or Review Materials could produce a different outcome. Notwithstanding the required Tests, the Asset Representations Reviewer will not be required to review any information other than (1) Review Materials specified in the related Test and (2) if applicable, Unsolicited Information. The Asset Representations Reviewer may, but is under no obligation to, consider Unsolicited Information relevant to the Tests subject to the terms of the PSA. If the Asset Representations Reviewer considers Unsolicited Information, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall take into account such Unsolicited Information, in addition to the Review Materials referred to in the applicable Test(s) procedure when making a determination as to whether there is a Test pass.

Section 2.                Servicing of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)              Each Note Holder acknowledges and agrees that, subject in each case to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced from and after the Securitization Date, pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be obligated to advance monthly payments of principal or interest in respect of any Note other than the Lead Securitization Note if such principal or interest is not paid by the Mortgage Loan Borrower but shall be obligated to advance delinquent real estate taxes, insurance premiums and other expenses related to the maintenance of the Mortgaged Property and maintenance and enforcement of the lien of the Mortgage thereon, subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including a determination of recoverability thereunder). Each Note Holder acknowledges that the other Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization and agrees that it will, subject to Section 26, reasonably cooperate with such other Note Holder, at such other Note Holder’s expense, to effect such Securitization. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Note Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the appointment of the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Trustee under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Depositor, and the appointment of the Special Servicer as the initial Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Depositor (subject to replacement by the Controlling Note Holder as provided herein) and agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Note Holder hereby appoints the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee in the Lead Securitization as such Note Holder’s attorney-in-fact to sign any documents reasonably required with respect to the administration and servicing of the Mortgage Loan on its behalf under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (subject at all times to the rights of the Note Holder set forth herein and in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement). In no event shall the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement require the Servicer to enforce the rights of any Note Holder or limit the Servicer in enforcing the rights of one Note Holder against the other Note Holder; however, this statement shall not be construed to otherwise limit the rights of one Note Holder with respect to the other Note Holder. Each Servicer shall be required pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to service the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, this Agreement and applicable law, and shall not take any action or refrain from taking any action or follow any direction inconsistent with the foregoing.

At any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Note Holders agree to cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced by one or more servicers, each of which has been agreed upon by the Note Holders, pursuant to a servicing agreement that has servicing terms substantially similar to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and all references herein to the “Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement” shall mean such subsequent servicing agreement; provided, however, that if a Non-Lead Securitization Note is in a Securitization, then a written confirmation shall have been obtained from each Rating Agency that the appointment of the servicer(s) pursuant to such

  -18-  

 

servicing agreement would not, in and of itself, cause a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then-current ratings assigned to the securities issued in connection with such Securitization; provided, further, however, that until a replacement servicing agreement has been entered into, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement as if such agreement was still in full force and effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan, by the Servicer in the Lead Securitization or by any Master Servicer appointed by the Lead Securitization Note Holder that is a qualified servicer meeting the requirements of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or by any Special Servicer appointed by the Lead Securitization Note Holder that satisfies the Required Special Servicer Rating.

(b)               The Master Servicer shall be the lead master servicer on the Mortgage Loan, and from time to time it (or the Trustee, to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) (i) shall be required to make Property Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan, subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and (ii) may be required to make P&I Advances on the Lead Securitization Note, if and to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for a Property Advance, first from funds on deposit in the Loan Combination Custodial Account for the Mortgage Loan that (in any case) represent amounts received on or in respect of the Mortgage Loan in the manner provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and then, in the case of Nonrecoverable Property Advances, if such funds on deposit in the Loan Combination Custodial Account are insufficient, from general collections of the Lead Securitization as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and from general collections of each Non-Lead Securitization as provided below. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for Advance Interest Amounts on a Property Advance or a Nonrecoverable Property Advance, in the manner and from the sources provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, including from general collections of the Lead Securitization and, in the case of Property Advances, from general collections of each Non-Lead Securitization as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, obtains funds from general collections of the Lead Securitization as a reimbursement for a Nonrecoverable Property Advance or any Advance Interest Amounts on a Property Advance or a Nonrecoverable Property Advance, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including from general collections or any other amounts from any Non-Lead Securitization Trust) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, reimburse the Lead Securitization for its pro rata share of such Nonrecoverable Property Advance or Advance Interest Amounts.

In addition, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including, but not limited to, the related Non-Lead Securitization Trust) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pay or reimburse the Lead Securitization for such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of any Additional Trust Fund Expenses with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, any other fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor or the Depositor, as applicable, is entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the Lead Securitization

  -19-  

 

Servicing Agreement, and any fees, costs or expenses related to obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation, in each case to the extent amounts on deposit in the Loan Combination Custodial Account that are allocated to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts (which such reimbursement shall be made, if such Non-Lead Securitization Note has been included in a Non-Lead Securitization, from general collections or any other amounts from such Non-Lead Securitization Trust). Each Non- Lead Securitization Holder agrees to indemnify (i) (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of the following parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the Depositor (and any director, officer, employee or agent of any of the foregoing, to the extent such parties are identified as indemnified parties in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in respect of other mortgage loans) and (ii) the Lead Securitization Trust (such parties in clause (i) and the Lead Securitization Trust, collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property (or, with respect to the Operating Advisor, incurred in connection with the provision of services for the Mortgage Loan) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Items”) to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Loan Combination Custodial Account that are allocated to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for its pro rata share of the insufficiency (including, if a Non-Lead Securitization Note has been included in a Non-Lead Securitization, from general collections or any other amounts from the related Non-Lead Securitization Trust).

Each Non-Lead Master Servicer may be required to make P&I Advances on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note, from time to time, subject to the terms of the related Non- Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Non-Lead Master Servicer, each Non-Lead Special Servicer and each Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, and each Non-Lead Master Servicer or each Non-Lead Trustee shall be required to notify each other servicer and trustee with respect to a Securitization of the amount of its P&I Advance within two (2) Business Days of making such advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable (with respect to the Lead Securitization Note) or any Non-Lead Master Servicer, any Non-Lead Special Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable (with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note), determines that a proposed P&I Advance, if made, would be non-recoverable or an outstanding P&I Advance is or would be non-recoverable,

  -20-  

 

or if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, subsequently determines that a proposed Property Advance would be non- recoverable or an outstanding Property Advance is or would be non-recoverable, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee (as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee) or any Non-Lead Master Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee (as provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of the a determination of non- recoverability by a Non-Lead Master Servicer, a Non-Lead Special Servicer or a Non-Lead Trustee) shall notify the Master Servicer and the Trustee, and/or each other Non-Lead Master Servicer and Non-Lead Trustee, as the case may be, within two (2) Business Days of making such determination. Each of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, any Non-Lead Master Servicer and any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, will only be entitled to reimbursement for a P&I Advance that becomes non-recoverable and advance interest thereon first from the Loan Combination Custodial Account from amounts allocable to the Note for which such P&I Advance was made, and then, if funds are insufficient, (i) in the case of the Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the Lead Securitization Trust, pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the related Securitization Trust, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(iii)            the Master Servicer shall remit all payments received with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note, net of the servicing fees payable to the Master Servicer and Special Servicer with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note, and any other applicable fees and reimbursements payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder by the earlier of (x) the Master Servicer Remittance Date (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and (y) the Business Day following the “determination date” (or any term substantially similar thereto) as defined in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing

(xv)            the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not be amended in any manner that materially and adversely affects any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder without the consent of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder;

(xvi)           to the extent related to the Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, Rating Agency Confirmation shall be provided with respect to the commercial mortgage pass-through certificates issued in connection with any Non-Lead Securitization to the same extent provided with respect to the commercial mortgage pass- through certificates issued in connection with the Lead Securitization;

(i)                 Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be responsible for its pro rata share of any Nonrecoverable Property Advances (and advance interest thereon) and any Additional Trust Fund Expenses, but only to the extent that they relate to servicing and administration of the Notes and the Mortgaged Property, including without limitation, any unpaid Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees and Workout Fees relating to the Notes, and that in the event that the funds received with respect to each respective Note are insufficient to cover such Property Advances or Additional Trust Fund Expenses, (A) the related Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pay or reimburse the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Lead Securitization Trust, as applicable, out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of any such Nonrecoverable Property Advances (together with advance interest thereon) and/or other Additional Trust Fund Expenses (including compensation due to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the extent related to the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property), and (B) if the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement permits the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee to reimburse itself from the Lead Securitization Trust’s general account, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, may do so, and the related Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse the Lead Securitization Trust out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non- Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of any such Nonrecoverable Property Advances (together with advance interest thereon) and/or Additional Trust Fund Expenses (including compensation due to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to

  -27-  

 

the extent related to the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property);

(ii)               if such Note Holder is a Lead Securitization Note Holder, give the other Note Holders (other than itself) written notice (which may be by email) in a timely manner

  -28-

Section 3.                Priority of Payments. Each Note shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Note shall have priority or preference over any portion of the other Note or security therefor.

All amounts tendered by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or otherwise available for payment on or with respect to or in connection with the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property or amounts realized as proceeds thereof, whether received in the form of Monthly Payments, the Balloon Payment, Liquidation Proceeds, proceeds under any guaranty, letter of credit or other collateral or instrument securing the Mortgage Loan, Condemnation Proceeds, or Insurance Proceeds (other than proceeds, awards or settlements to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgage Loan Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents), but excluding (x) all amounts for required reserves or escrows required by the Mortgage Loan Documents (to the extent, in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents) to be held as reserves or escrows or received as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of property protection expenses or Property Advances then due and payable or reimbursable to the Trustee or any Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (y) all amounts that are then due, payable or reimbursable (except for (i) any reimbursements of P&I Advances previously made (and interest thereon) on the Lead Securitization Note, and (ii) any Servicing Fees due to the Master Servicer in excess of the portion of the Servicing Fees calculated at the “primary servicing fee rate” (or analogous term) applicable to the Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) to any Servicer or the Trustee, with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including without limitation, any Additional Trust Fund Expenses relating to the Mortgage Loan (but subject to second paragraph of Section 5(e) hereof) reimbursable to, or payable to, such parties and any Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees, Workout Fees, Assumption Fees, Modification Fees, Penalty Charges (to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph) and any other additional compensation payable pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), shall be applied by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its designee) to the Notes on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis.

For clarification purposes, Penalty Charges (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) paid on each Note shall first, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer for any interest accrued on any Property Advances and reimbursement of any Property Advances in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, second, be used to reduce the respective amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, Trustee, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer or the related Non-Lead Trustee for any interest accrued on any P&I Advance made with respect to such Note by such party (if and as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable), third, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis,

  -29-  

 

the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay Additional Trust Fund Expenses (other than Special Servicing Fees, unpaid Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan (as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and, finally, (i) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to the Lead Securitization Note, be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note, be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Section 4.               Workout. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Securitization Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal priorities of each Note as described in Section 3.

Section 5.                Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)               Subject to this Agreement (including but not limited to Section 5(d)) and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy, and no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever except as explicitly set forth herein with respect to the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that it shall have no right to, and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) the rights, if any, that such Note Holder has to, (i) call or cause the Lead Securitization Note Holder to call an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Securitization Note Holder to file any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead

  -30-  

 

Securitization Note Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Note Holder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or its obligation to follow the Servicing Standard (in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or any liability for failure to do so).

Each Note Holder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder), upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, to sell the Notes as notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. In connection with any such sale, the Special Servicer shall be required to sell the Notes together in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a fair price. Subject to the other provisions of this paragraph and the two following paragraphs and the applicable provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Special Servicer shall accept the first (and, if multiple offers are contemporaneously received, the highest) cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for such Defaulted Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicer shall notify the Controlling Note Holder Representative and each Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative of any inquiries or offers received regarding the sale of such Defaulted Mortgage Loan.

Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan shall be determined by the Special Servicer, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, and by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested Person (provided that the Trustee may not be an offeror) unless (i) the offer is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price, (ii) the offer is the highest offer received and (iii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties; provided, however, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. In all cases under this Agreement (except to the extent the Trustee is not required to determine whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence), in determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the preceding 9-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. The appraiser conducting any such new Appraisal shall be an Appraiser selected by (i) the Special Servicer if no Interested Person is making an offer with respect to the Mortgage Loan and (ii) the Trustee if an Interested Person is so making an offer. The cost of any such Appraisal shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable as, a Property Advance. In determining whether any such offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the prior 9 months), and in determining whether any offer from an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, any Appraiser shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the Mortgage Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. The Purchase Price for the Mortgage Loan shall in all cases be deemed a fair price; provided, however, that with respect to Interested Parties, the requirements of the first sentence of this paragraph must be satisfied. Notwithstanding anything contained in this

  -31-  

 

paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least 5 years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the Mortgage Loan that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee will be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party pursuant to this paragraph will be covered by, and will be reimbursable by the Interested Person; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan if it becomes a Defaulted Mortgage Loan without the written consent of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (provided that such consent is not required if such Non- Controlling Note Holder is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to each Non-Controlling Note Holder: (a) at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale, (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File reasonably requested by any such Non-Controlling Note Holder that are material to the price of the Mortgage Loan and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by any Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided, that any Non-Controlling Note Holder may waive, as to itself, any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this sentence. Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each of the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative, each Non-Controlling Note Holder and each Non- Controlling Note Holder Representative shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Mortgage Loan unless such Person is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an agent or Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of the related Non-Lead Securitization Note. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver the related original Non-Lead Securitization Note, endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

  -32-  

 

The authority of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to sell any Non-Lead Securitization Note, and the obligations of any other Note Holder to execute and deliver instruments or deliver the related Note upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Securitization Note is repurchased by the holder of such Lead Securitization Note that sold such Lead Securitization Note into such Securitization from the trust fund established under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization. The preceding sentence shall not be construed to grant to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the benefit of any representation or warranty made by the holder of the Lead Securitization Note that sold such Lead Securitization Note into the Lead Securitization or any document delivery obligation imposed on such Person under any mortgage loan purchase and sale agreement, instrument of transfer or other document or instrument that may be executed or delivered by such Person in connection with the Lead Securitization.

(b)               The administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and, following the Securitization Date, together with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. After the Securitization Date, the servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (or to the extent otherwise provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), by the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, taking into account the interests of both Note Holders as a collective whole. The Note Holders agree to be bound by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Note Holder described hereunder may be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Trustee on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder. The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not be amended in any manner that may materially and adversely affect any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder without the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s prior written consent. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (unless it is the same Person as or an Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) shall be a third- party beneficiary to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to its rights as specifically provided for therein.

(c)               The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have, with respect to the Mortgage Loan, all of the same rights and powers of the Controlling Class Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the other mortgage loans included in the Lead Securitization, without limitation, the right to consent and/or consult regarding Major Decisions and other servicing matters, the right to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all Specially Serviced Loans and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to non-Specially Serviced Loans as to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, and the right to direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the

Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Class Representative may deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made therein, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(d)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be required (i) to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, to each Non- Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), within the same time frame it is required to provide such notice, information or report to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) to consult with each Non- Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) on a strictly non- binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such Non- Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative); provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non- Controlling Note Holder Representative) by the Lead Securitization Note Holder of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report that would be required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative as set forth above, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall no longer be obligated to consult with such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), whether or not such Non- Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the consultation rights of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders. In no event shall the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by any Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative).

  -34-  

 

In addition to the consultation rights provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to attend annual meetings (which may be held telephonically or in person, at the discretion of the Servicer) with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf), upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.

(e)               If any Note is included as an asset of a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a “REMIC”), within the meaning of Section 860D(a) of the Code, then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interest of the pro rata share of each Note Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Note Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC which includes the Notes (or any portion thereof). Each Note Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected by compliance with any REMIC provisions in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan.

All costs and expenses of compliance with this Section 5(e), to the extent that such costs and expenses relate to administration of a REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense, shall be borne by each Note Holder solely with respect to the REMIC trust that includes its own Note. Anything herein or in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that one of the Notes is included in a REMIC and the other is not, such other Note Holder shall not be required to reimburse such Note Holder or any other Person for payment of (i) any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to the other Note Holder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

Section 6.                Appointment of Controlling Note Holder Representative and Non- Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(a)               The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the

  -35-  

 

Mortgage Loan (the “Controlling Note Holder Representative”). The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Note Holder Representative. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower, its principal or any Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower), including, without limitation, the Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Note Holder, any affiliate of the Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party. No such Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Note Holder. Any Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until the Controlling Note Holder has notified the Servicer or Trustee of such appointment and, if the Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative provides any Servicer or Trustee with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment, an address and facsimile number for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and facsimile numbers). The Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to any Servicer. None of the Servicers, Operating Advisor and Trustee shall be required to recognize any person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until they receive such information from the Controlling Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder agrees to inform each such Servicer or Trustee of the then-current Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(b)               Neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will have any liability to the other Note Holders or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder (whether acting in place of the Controlling Note Holder Representative when no Controlling Note Holder Representative shall have been appointed hereunder or otherwise exercising any right, power or privilege granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over the other Note Holder, and that the Controlling Note Holder Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of a Note Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Controlling Note Holder Representative or the Controlling Note Holder, as the case may be, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Controlling Note Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having

  -36-  

 

acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

(c)               Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (such representative, with respect to each Non-Controlling Note Holder, its “Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative”). All of the provisions relating to the Controlling Note Holder and the Controlling Note Holder Representative set forth in Section 6(a) (except those contained in the last sentence thereof) and Section 6(b) shall apply to each Non- Controlling Note Holder and its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative mutatis mutandis. The Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative with respect to each Non-Controlling Note as of the date of this Agreement and until the Lead Securitization Note Holder (and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) is notified otherwise, shall be the Initial Note Holder of such Note, provided that at any time any Non-Controlling Note is included in a Securitization, references to the “Non-Controlling Note Holder” herein shall mean the related Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative or any other party assigned the rights to exercise the rights of the related “Non-Controlling Note Holder” hereunder, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and as to the identity of which the Lead Securitization Note Holder (and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) has been given written notice.

Section 7.                Appointment of Special Servicer. The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have the right at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer in lieu thereof. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to the other Note Holders, the Master Servicer, the then existing Special Servicer and other parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, a Rating Agency Confirmation, if required by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), if any; provided, that in the event the replacement Special Servicer does not have the Required Special Servicer Rating from any Rating Agency rating a Non-Lead Securitization, a Rating Agency Confirmation will be required to be obtained with respect to such Rating Agency and delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the other parties hereto of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid. If a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer has occurred that affects any Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the

  -37-  

 

Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced) solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced). The Controlling Note Holder and each Non-Controlling Note Holder acknowledge and agree that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at a Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non- Controlling Note Holder. The related Non-Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account or Loan Combination Custodial Account.

Section 8.                Payment Procedure.

(a)               The Lead Securitization Note Holder, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Loan Combination Custodial Account pursuant to and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deposit such amounts to the applicable account within two (2) Business Days (or within such time period as required under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) after receipt of properly identified funds by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

(b)               If the Lead Securitization Note Holder determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of any Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to the Lead Securitization Note Holder, any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders and the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders shall promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Note Holder repay to the Lead Securitization Note Holder any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have theretofore distributed to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have been required to pay to any Mortgage Loan Borrower, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or such other Person with respect thereto.

(c)                If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Note Holder makes any payment to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder before the Lead Securitization Note Holder has received

  -38-  

 

the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Note Holder does not receive the corresponding payment within five (5) Business Days of its payment to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(d)               Each Note Holder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it shall promptly remit such excess to the applicable Note Holder, subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such Non- Lead Securitization Note Holder under the Mortgage Loan. Such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 9.                Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder shall have no liability to the other Note Holders with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Note Holder.

The Note Holders acknowledge that each Note Holder (including any Servicer, any Non-Lead Servicer, the Trustee and any Non-Lead Trustee) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that such Note Holder may have under this Agreement and the applicable Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of the other Note Holders and that no Note Holder (including any Servicer, any Non-Lead Servicer, the Trustee and any Non-Lead Trustee) shall have any liability whatsoever to any other Note Holders in connection with such Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by such Note Holder to exercise such rights, so long as such Note Holder (including any Servicer, any Non-Lead Servicer, the Trustee and any Non-Lead Trustee) complies with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Securitization Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions of the applicable Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the Servicing Standard).

Section 10.            Bankruptcy. Subject to Section 5(d), each Note Holder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Servicer has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder further agrees that only the Servicer, and not the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders or any of their representatives, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. The Note Holders hereby appoint the Servicer as their agent, and grant to the Servicer an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their

  -39-  

 

proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Note Holders hereby agree that, upon the request of the Servicer, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Servicer may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by the Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 11.            Representations of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement is within its corporate powers, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and does not contravene such Note Holder’s charter or any law or contractual restriction binding upon such Note Holder, and that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Note Holder enforceable against such Note Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, in good standing and in possession of all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Note Holder, (b) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Note Holder have been obtained or made and (c) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, there is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against such Note Holder, an adverse outcome of which would materially and adversely affect its performance under this Agreement.

Section 12.            No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between the Note Holders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to offer to the other Note Holders the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates and if any Note Holder chooses to offer to the other Note Holders the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future mortgage loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Note Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from the other Note Holders a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates.

-40-

Section 13.          Other Business Activities of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder acknowledges that the other Note Holders or their Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, any entity that is a holder of debt secured by direct or indirect ownership interests in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any entity that is a holder of a preferred equity interest in the Mortgage Loan Borrower (each, a “Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party”), and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Parties and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 14.            Sale of the Notes.

(a)               Each Note Holder agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its respective Note (a “Transfer”) except to a Qualified Institutional Lender. Promptly after the Transfer, except with respect to any Transfer between Starwood Mortgage Capital LLC and Starwood Mortgage Funding VII, LLC or any Transfer between Argentic and AREF 2 WH BC LLC, each non-transferring Note Holder shall be provided with (x) a representation from a transferee or the applicable Note Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender (except in the case of a Transfer in accordance with the immediately following sentence) and (y) a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 15 (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement). If a Note Holder intends to Transfer its respective Note, or any portion thereof, to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, it must first obtain the consent of each non-transferring Note Holder and, if such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, a confirmation in writing from each Rating Agency that such Transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without each non-transferring Note Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, without a confirmation in writing from each Rating Agency that such Transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization, no Note Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note (or a participation interest in such Note) to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or a Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. The transferring Note Holder agrees that it shall pay the expenses of each non-transferring Note Holder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee) and all expenses relating to the confirmation from the Rating Agencies in connection with any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Note Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of the other Note Holder, the Rating Agencies or any other Person, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in a Note. None of the provisions of this Section 14(a) shall apply in the case of (1) a sale of the Lead Securitization Note, together with all of the Non-Lead Securitization Notes, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or (2) a transfer by the Special Servicer, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, of the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming

  -41-  

 

a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, to a single member limited liability or limited partnership, 100% of the equity interest in which is owned directly or indirectly, through one or more single member limited liability companies or limited partnerships, by the Lead Securitization Trust.

For the purposes of this Agreement, if any Rating Agency shall, in writing, waive, decline or refuse to review or otherwise engage any request for a confirmation hereunder from such Rating Agency that a proposed action will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization, such waiver, declination, or refusal shall be deemed to eliminate, for such request only, the condition that such confirmation by such Rating Agency (only) be obtained for purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of clarity, any such waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any request for such confirmation hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any subsequent request for such Rating Agency confirmation hereunder and the condition for such Rating Agency confirmation pursuant to this Agreement for any subsequent request shall apply regardless of any previous waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in such prior request.

(b)               In the case of any Transfer of a participation interest in any of the Notes, the respective Note Holders’ obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Note Holders shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and the Lead Securitization Note Holder and any Persons acting on its behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Note Holder in connection with such Note Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Note Holder had not sold such participation interest.

(c)               Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Note Holder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof) which has extended a credit facility to such Note Holder and that is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency (a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 14(c), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Note Holder or any person which Controls such Note that is secured by its Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Note Holder to each other Note Holder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), each such other Note Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give such Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Note Holder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) days to cure a default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations to such other Note Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Note Holder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving

  -42-  

 

of same to the pledging Note Holder; (v) that such other Note Holder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Note Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to such other Note Holder and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Note Holder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Note Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Note Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Note Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Note Holder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Note Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Note Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases each other Note Holder and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Note Holder on account of such other Note Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or such other Note Holder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Note Holder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Note Holders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof which is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Note Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Note Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 14(c) shall remain effective as to any Note Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Note Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(d)               Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Note Holder then such Note Holder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Note Holder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note requires a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii)               The Conduit Credit Enhancer is a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)             Such Note Holder pledges its interest in its Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

(iv)             The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit agree that, if such Note Holder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Note Holder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Note Holder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v)                Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Note Holder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 15.            Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder. The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 15, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of the other Note Holder. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such person as its agent under this Section 15 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding (i) any Note Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge, (ii) any Transfer between Starwood Mortgage Capital LLC and Starwood Mortgage Funding VII, LLC and (iii) any Transfer between Argentic and AREF 2 WH BC LLC), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 14, from and after the date of such assignment. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a Trustee or Non-Lead Trustee shall not be required to execute an assignment and assumption agreement in connection with any Transfer of a Note if the obligations are assumed pursuant to the applicable Securitization Servicing Agreement. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 14 and this Section 15. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and the other Note Holder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Upon the Securitization of a Lead Securitization Note, the Master Servicer shall automatically become and be the Agent.

(b)               CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)               AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH A PARTY HEREIN SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(d)               AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 18.             Modifications. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Note Holder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Note Holders shall not amend or modify this Agreement without first receiving a Rating Agency Confirmation; provided that no such confirmation from the Rating Agencies shall be required in connection with a modification (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (ii) to make other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 19.             Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as provided herein, including without limitation, with respect to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer and any Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee, none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Person not a party hereto. Subject to Section 14 and Section 15, each Note Holder may assign or delegate its rights or obligations under this Agreement. Upon any such assignment, the assignee shall be entitled to all rights and benefits of the applicable Note Holder hereunder.

Section 20.            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and all of such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement in Portable Document Format (PDF) or by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed original counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 21.           Captions. The titles and headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to summarize or otherwise describe the subject matter of the paragraphs and shall not be given any consideration in the construction of this Agreement.

Section 22.         Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable laws, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 23.           Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

-46-

Section 24.           Withholding Taxes. (a) If the Lead Securitization Note Holder or the Mortgage Loan Borrower shall be required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder constituting a Non-Exempt Person, the Lead Securitization Note Holder, in its capacity as servicer, shall be entitled to do so with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to such Note Holder), provided that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall furnish such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting such Note Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which such Note Holder is subject to tax.

(b)               Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall and hereby agrees to indemnify the Lead Securitization Note Holder against and hold the Lead Securitization Note Holder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payment made to such Note Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by such Note Holder to the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payments made to such Note Holder, it being expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) such Note Holder, upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder and at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(c)               Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) represents (for the benefit of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that neither the Lead Securitization Note Holder nor the Mortgage Loan Borrower is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time as necessary during the term of this Agreement, each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder or Servicer, as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Note Holder substantiating that such Note Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is not obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, (i) if a Note Holder is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (ii) if a Non- Lead Securitization Note Holder is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the Mortgage Loan Borrower is

  -47-  

 

treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, such Note Holder shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments) or Form W-8BEN, or successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by such Note Holder, as evidence of such Note Holder’s exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note or otherwise until the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder of such Note shall have furnished to the Lead Securitization Note Holder requested forms, certificates, statements or documents.

Section 25.           Custody of Mortgage Loan Documents. The originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Non-Lead Securitization Notes) (a) prior to the Lead Securitization will be held by the Initial Agent (or a custodian on its behalf) and (b) after the Lead Securitization, will be held by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (in the name of the Trustee and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), in each case, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes.

Section 26.           Cooperation in Securitization.

(a)               Each Note Holder acknowledges that any Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization. In connection with a Securitization and subject to the terms of the preceding sentence, at the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall use reasonable efforts, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s expense, to satisfy, and to cooperate with the Lead Securitization Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to satisfy, the standards that may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with the Securitization, including, entering into (or consenting to, as applicable) any modifications to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Documents and to cooperate with the Lead Securitization Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute such modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents, in any such case, as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies to effect the Securitization; provided, however, that either in connection with the Lead Securitization or otherwise at any time prior to the Lead Securitization, a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to modify or amend this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Documents (or consent to such modification, as applicable) in connection therewith, if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to or priority of such payments to, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or (ii) materially increase such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligations or materially decrease such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s rights, remedies or protections. In connection with any Securitization, each non-securitizing Note Holder agrees to provide for inclusion in any disclosure document relating to such Securitization such information concerning such Note Holder and the related Note as the securitizing Note Holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, and each Note Holder covenants and agrees that it shall, at the securitizing Note Holder’s expense, cooperate with the reasonable requests of each Rating Agency and securitizing Note Holder in connection with such Securitization (including, without limitation, reasonably cooperating with the securitizing Note Holder (without any obligation to make additional representations and

  -48-  

 

warranties) to enable the securitizing Note Holder to make all necessary certifications and deliver all necessary opinions (including customary securities law opinions) in connection with the Mortgage Loan and the Lead Securitization), as well as in connection with all other matters and the preparation of any offering documents thereof and to review and respond reasonably promptly with respect to any information relating to such non-securitizing Note Holder and the related Note in any Securitization document. Each Note Holder acknowledges that the information provided by it to a securitizing Note Holder may be incorporated into the offering documents for a Securitization. The securitizing Note Holder and each Rating Agency shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, each non-securitizing Note Holder. Each Note Holder will reasonably cooperate with any securitizing Note Holder by providing all information reasonably requested that is in the non-securitizing Note Holder’s possession in connection with such securitizing Note Holder’s preparation of disclosure materials in connection with a Securitization.

Upon request, the securitizing Note Holder shall deliver to each non-securitizing Note Holder drafts of the preliminary and final Securitization offering memoranda, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus and any other disclosure documents and the applicable Securitization Servicing Agreement and provide reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such documents.

Section 27.            Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be given by (i) facsimile transmission (during business hours) if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (ii) reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid) or (iii) certified United States mail, postage prepaid return receipt requested, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses set forth on Exhibit B hereto, or at such other address as any party shall hereafter inform the other party by written notice given as aforesaid. All written notices so given shall be deemed effective upon receipt.

Prior to Securitization of a Non-Lead Securitization Note (including any New Notes), all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or the related Non-Controlling Note Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) only need to be delivered to the related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative and, when so delivered to the related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Following Securitization of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or the related Non-Controlling Note Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be delivered to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Special Servicer (who then may forward such items to the party entitled to receive such items as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and, when so delivered to the related Non-Lead Master

  -49-  

 

Servicer and the related Non-Lead Special Servicer, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Section 28.        Broker. Each Note Holder represents to each other that no broker was responsible for bringing about this transaction.

Section 29.            Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a)               The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 14 and Section 15;

(b)               The Agent may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

(c)               The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any Note Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(d)               The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(e)               The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15;

(f)                The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder; and

(g)               The Agent represents and warrants that it is a Qualified Institutional Lender.

Section 30.            Not a Security. No Note shall be deemed to be a security within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Section 31.           Resignation of Agent. The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. The Initial Agent may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the

  -50-  

 

Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of the Initial Agent or any successor thereto prior to such Securitization without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of such Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement, and any successor master servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place thereof without any further notice or other action.

Section 32.            Resizing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for so long as an Initial Note Holder, Starwood Mortgage Capital LLC or an affiliate thereof (an “Initial Owner Entity”) is the owner of a Non-Lead Securitization Note (the “Owned Note”), such Initial Owner Entity shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated notes or additional notes (in either case, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of such Owned Note to such New Notes or severing such Owned Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of such Owned Note provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the aggregate principal of such Owned Note prior to such amendments, (ii) all Notes continue to have the same weighted average interest rate as the Notes prior to such amendments, (iii) all Notes pay pro rata and on a pari passu basis (including after a default and in connection with a condemnation or prepayment) and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement, and (iv) the Initial Owner Entity holding the New Notes shall notify the Lead Securitization Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing of such modified allocations and principal amounts. Except for the foregoing reallocation or severance and for modifications pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as discussed in Section 5), no Note may be modified or amended without the consent of its holder and the consent of the holder of the other Note. In connection with the foregoing (provided the conditions set forth in (i) through (iv) above are satisfied, as certified by the applicable Initial Owner Entity, on which certification the Master Servicer can rely), the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and directed to execute amendments to the Mortgage Loan Documents and this Agreement on behalf of any or all of the Note Holders, as applicable, solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal (which may include the amendment or addition of applicable defined terms to reflect the New Notes) or such severing of such Owned Note. If an Owned Note is severed into “component” notes, such component notes shall each have the same rights as the related Owned Note. For the avoidance of doubt, Rating Agency Confirmation shall not be required for any amendments to this Agreement required to facilitate the terms of this Section 32.

(a)               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (and each Note Holder hereby agrees that this paragraph shall control over any conflicting provisions contained in this Agreement (including with respect to any other provisions containing the phrase “notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary” or words of similar effect or intent), prior to the Lead Securitization Date, (x) BMO, as Initial Agent for the Note Holders, shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced by Midland Loan Services, a division of PNC Bank, National Association, as servicer on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to this Agreement and that certain Amended and Restated Interim Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 6, 2023 (the “Interim Servicing Agreement”), between BMO, as owner, any new owners, as owner, and Midland Loan Services, a division of PNC Bank, National Association, as servicer, or any replacement servicing agreement entered into with any successor interim servicer appointed by BMO, and (y) all servicing and other decisions regarding the Mortgage Loan shall be made: (i) with respect to matters set forth on Exhibit D hereto as constituting “Unanimous Decisions”, by unanimous consent of the Note Holders, (ii) with respect to matters set forth on Exhibit D hereto as “Supermajority Decisions”, by consent of Note Holders of at least 66.67% Percentage Interest of the Mortgage Loan, and (iii) with respect to all other matters, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the Interim Servicing Agreement (provided that any conflict between the Interim Servicing Agreement and this Agreement shall be resolved in favor of this Agreement), by the Controlling Note Holder.

Each Note Holder acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Lead Securitization Date, subject in each case to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be obligated to advance monthly payments of principal or interest in respect of any Note other than the Lead Securitization Note(s) if such principal or interest is not paid by the Mortgage Loan Borrower but shall be obligated to make Servicing Advances subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided, further, that, when appointed, the Special Servicer must have the Required Special Servicer Rating from each Rating Agency then rating a Securitization. Each Note Holder acknowledges that any other Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization and agrees that it will, subject to Section 26, reasonably cooperate with such other Note Holder, at such other Note Holder’s expense, to effect such Securitization.

The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not require the Servicer to enforce the rights of any Note Holder against any other Note Holder or limit the Servicer in enforcing the rights of one Note Holder against any other Note Holder as may be required in order to service the Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided, that it is also understood and agreed that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to otherwise limit the rights of one Note Holder with respect to any other Note Holder.

The Note Holders acknowledge that at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall have no further obligation to make P&I Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan.

The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement for a Servicing Advance, first from funds on deposit in the Collection Account and/or the related Companion Distribution Account for the Mortgage Loan that (in any case) represent amounts received on or in respect of the Mortgage Loan, and then, in the case of Servicing Advances that are Nonrecoverable Advances, if such funds on deposit in the Collection Account and Companion Distribution Account are insufficient, from general collections of the Lead Securitization as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement for interest on a Servicing Advance (including any Servicing Advance that is a Nonrecoverable Advance) at the Reimbursement Rate in the manner and from the sources provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, including from general collections of the Lead Securitization.

In addition, any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including, but not limited to, any Securitization Trust into which the applicable Non-Lead Securitization Note is deposited) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pay or reimburse the Lead Securitization for such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of any fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Depositor or CREFC^®, as applicable, is entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, to the extent amounts on deposit in the related Companion Distribution Account and, to the extent of funds related to the Mortgage Loan, the Collection Account, are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees to indemnify (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of the following parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor (and any director, officer, member, manager, employee or agent of any of the foregoing, to the extent such parties are identified as indemnified parties in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in respect of other mortgage loans) (the “Indemnified Parties”) against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan (or, with respect to the Operating

-17-

Advisor, incurred in connection with the provision of services for the Mortgage Loan) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Items”) to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the related Companion Distribution Account and, to the extent of funds related to the Mortgage Loan, the Collection Account, are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for its pro rata share of the insufficiency; provided that a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s duty to pay, if any, Indemnified Items to the Operating Advisor shall be subject to any limitations and conditions (including limitations and conditions with respect to the timing of such payments and the sources of funds for such payments) as may be set forth from time to time in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the Non-Lead Operating Advisor.

Any Non-Lead Master Servicer (or Non-Lead Trustee (if not made by such Non-Lead Master Servicer)) may be required to make P&I Advances on the respective Non-Lead Securitization Note, from time to time, subject to the terms of the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall each be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the Lead Securitization Note(s) based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee under any Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable, shall each be entitled to make its own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, and any Non-Lead Master Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, shall each be required to notify the other of the amount of its P&I Advance within two Business Days of making such advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable (with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s)) or a Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable (with respect to a Non-Lead Securitization Note), determines that a proposed P&I Advance, if made, would be non-recoverable or an outstanding P&I Advance is or would be non-recoverable, or if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, subsequently determines that a proposed Servicing Advance would be non-recoverable or an outstanding Servicing Advance is or would be non-recoverable, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee (as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee) or such Non-Lead Master Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee (as provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by a Non-Lead Master Servicer, a Non-Lead Special Servicer or a Non-Lead Trustee) shall notify the Master Servicer and the Trustee, or the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Trustee, as the case may be, of such other Securitization within two Business Days of making such determination. Each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee, any Non-Lead Master Servicer and any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, shall only be entitled to reimbursement for a P&I Advance that becomes non-recoverable (and interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate) first from the related Companion Distribution Account from amounts allocable to the Note for which such P&I Advance was made, and then, if such funds are insufficient, (i) in the case of the

-18-

Lead Securitization Note(s), from general collections of the Lead Securitization Trust, pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the related Securitization Trust, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Upon the occurrence of such a Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Master Servicer affecting a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, and the Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Trustee or the Master Servicer shall, upon the direction of a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, require the appointment of a subservicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan. Upon the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Special Servicer affecting a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, and the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall, upon direction of a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, terminate the Special Servicer with respect to, but only with respect to, the Mortgage Loan.

Section 3.                Priority of Payments.

-24-

of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to the extent permitted by the REMIC Provisions), shall be applied by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its designee) to the Notes on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis; provided, that (x) all amounts for required reserves or escrows required by the Mortgage Loan Documents (to the extent and in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents) to be held as reserves or escrows or received as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of property protection expenses or Servicing Advances then due and payable or reimbursable to the Trustee or any Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall be applied to the extent set forth in, and in accordance with the terms of, the Mortgage Loan Documents; and (y) all amounts that are then due, payable or reimbursable to any Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and any other additional compensation payable to it thereunder (including without limitation, any additional trust fund expenses under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the Mortgage Loan (but subject to the second paragraph of Section 5(d) hereof) reimbursable to, or payable by, such parties and any Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees, Workout Fees, Penalty Charges (to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph), but excluding (i) any P&I Advances (and interest thereon) on the Lead Securitization Note(s), which shall be reimbursed in accordance with Section 2(b) hereof, and (ii) any servicing fees due to the Master Servicer in excess of the portion of the servicing fees calculated at the “primary servicing fee rate” applicable to the Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, which such excess shall not be subject to the allocation provisions of this Section 3) shall be payable in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

For clarification purposes, Penalty Charges (or any analogous term as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) paid on each Note shall first, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer for any interest accrued on any Servicing Advances and reimbursement of any Servicing Advances in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, second, be used to reduce the respective amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, Trustee, any Non-Lead Master Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, for any interest accrued on any P&I Advance made with respect to such Note by such party (if and as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or applicable Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable), third, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay additional trust fund expenses under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including Special Servicing Fees, unpaid Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan (as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and finally, with respect to any remaining amount of Penalty Charges, be distributed (x) prior to the securitization of the Lead Securitization Note(s) or at any time the Mortgage Loan is not being serviced pursuant to a Securitization Servicing Agreement, pro rata to each Note Holder, and (y) following the securitization of the Lead Securitization Note(s), to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Any proceeds received from the sale of the primary servicing rights with respect to the Mortgage Loan shall be remitted, promptly upon receipt thereof, to the Note Holders on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis. Any proceeds received by any Note Holder from the sale of master servicing rights with respect to its Note shall be for its own account. Any Note Holder that receives

-25-

proceeds from the sale of the primary servicing rights with respect to the Mortgage Loan shall remit to the other Note Holders, promptly upon receipt thereof, such amounts as are required such that each Note Holder receives its pro rata share of such proceeds on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis.

Section 4.                Workout. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Securitization Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal priorities of each Note as described in Section 3.

Section 5.                Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)               Subject to this Agreement (including but not limited to Sections 2(a) and 5(c)) and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on its behalf) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy, and no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever except as explicitly set forth herein with respect to the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any right to, and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) the rights, if any, that such Note Holder has to, (i) call, or cause the Lead Securitization Note Holder to call, an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing, or causing the Lead Securitization Note Holder to file, any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on its behalf) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Note Holder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or its obligation to follow the Servicing Standard (in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or any liability for failure to do so).

-26-

Each Note Holder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder), upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan, to sell the Notes together as notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. In connection with any such sale, the Special Servicer shall sell the Notes together as notes evidencing one whole loan and shall require that all offers be submitted to the Trustee in writing. Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan shall be determined by the Special Servicer (unless the offeror is an Interested Person, in which case the Trustee shall make such determination); provided, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two bona fide other offers are received from independent third parties. In determining whether any offer received represents a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the preceding nine (9)-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. The Trustee shall select the appraiser conducting any such new Appraisal. In determining whether any such offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall instruct the appraiser to take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal or updated Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the affected Mortgage Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of the Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. The Trustee may conclusively rely on the opinion of an Independent appraiser or other Independent expert in real estate matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the Mortgage Loan that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, and that has been retained by the Trustee at the expense of the Holders in connection with making such determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan without the written consent of each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (provided that such consent is not required with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note that is held by a Borrower Party) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder: (a) at least 15 Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File requested by such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder that are material to the sale price of the Mortgage Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder or the Controlling Note Holder, as applicable) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale. Subject to the foregoing, each Note Holder or its Note Holder Representative shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Mortgage Loan (unless such Person is a Borrower Party).

-27-

Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the Mortgage Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan. If the Trustee designates such third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person.

Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of its Note. Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of Lead Securitization Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver any related original documentation evidencing its Note (endorsed in blank if necessary) to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to sell any Non-Lead Securitization Note, and the obligations of any other Note Holder to execute and deliver instruments or deliver the related Note upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Securitization Note(s) are repurchased by the holder(s) of such Lead Securitization Note(s) that sold such Lead Securitization Note(s) into such Securitization from the trust fund established under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s) or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s) upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization. The preceding sentence shall not be construed to grant to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the benefit of any representation or warranty made by the holder(s) of the Lead Securitization Note(s) that sold such Lead Securitization Note(s) into the Lead Securitization or any document delivery obligation imposed on such Person under any mortgage loan purchase and sale agreement, instrument of transfer or other document or instrument that may be executed or delivered by such Person in connection with the Lead Securitization.

(b)               Subject to Section 5(a), the administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) (or to the extent otherwise provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), by the Special

-28-

Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, taking into account the interests of each Note Holder. The Note Holders agree to be bound by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Note Holder described hereunder may be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to the extent set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not be amended in any manner that may materially and adversely affect any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in its capacity as Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder without such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s prior written consent. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (unless it is a Borrower Party) shall be a third-party beneficiary to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to its rights as specifically provided for therein.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall (i) provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Note Holder, as applicable, pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, to each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its Note Holder Representative), within the same time frame it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) use reasonable efforts to consult with each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative); provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall no longer be obligated to consult with such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), whether or not such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the non-binding

-29-

consultation rights of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders. In no event shall the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by a Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative).

In addition to the non-binding consultation rights provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to attend annual meetings (which may be held telephonically) with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf), upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.

(d)               If any Note is included as an asset of a REMIC, then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interest of the pro rata share of each Note Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Note Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC which includes the Notes (or any portion thereof) , or would otherwise violate any REMIC Provisions applicable to a REMIC that holds any Note (or any portion thereof). Each Note Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected by compliance with any REMIC Provisions in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan. Any costs and expenses of compliance with this Section 5(d), to the extent that such costs and expenses relate to the administration of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the REMIC Provisions (including any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense), shall be borne by all of the Note Holders collectively, each contributing on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis according to the Percentage Interest represented by each Note.

Anything herein or in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if one of the Notes is included in a REMIC and another is not, such other Note Holder shall not be required to reimburse such Note Holder or any other Person for payment of (i)

-30-

any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to any other Note Holder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

Section 6.                Note Holder Representatives.

(a)               The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Controlling Note Holder Representative”). The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Note Holder Representative. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person, including, without limitation, the Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Note Holder, any Affiliate of the Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party (other than a Borrower Party). No such Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Note Holder. No Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until the Controlling Note Holder has notified such Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator of such appointment and, if the Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative provides any Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment (and such parties will be entitled to rely on such notice), a mailing address and e-mail address for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and e-mail addresses). The Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to any Servicer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator. None of the Servicers, Operating Advisor, Certificate Administrator and Trustee shall be required to recognize any person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until they receive such information from the Controlling Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder agrees to inform each such Servicer or Trustee of the then-current Controlling Note Holder Representative.

Neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder, in such capacity, will have any liability to any other Note Holder or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence or breach of this Agreement. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder (whether acting in place of the Controlling Note Holder Representative when no Controlling Note Holder

-31-

Representative shall have been appointed hereunder or otherwise exercising any right, power or privilege granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over any other Note Holder, and that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of another Note Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence or a breach of this Agreement on the part of the Controlling Note Holder Representative or the Controlling Note Holder, as the case may be, acting in such capacity, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Controlling Note Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights, or to have breached this Agreement, by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall provide notice of its identity and contact information (including any change thereof) to the Trustee, Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided, that each Initial Note Holder shall be deemed to have provided such notice on the date hereof. The Trustee, Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such identity and contact information received by it and shall not be liable in respect of any deliveries hereunder sent in reliance thereon.

Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (with respect to such Note Holder, the “Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative”). All of the provisions relating to the Controlling Note Holder and the Controlling Note Holder Representative set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 6(a) (except those contained in the last sentence thereof) and the second paragraph of this Section 6(a) shall apply to each Non-Controlling Note Holder and its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative mutatis mutandis.

For so long as the Lead Securitization Note(s) are included in the Lead Securitization, the “Directing Certificateholder” under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or any other party designated under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to exercise the rights of the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) shall be the Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(b)                   The Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to exercise the rights and powers granted to the Controlling Note hereunder. In addition, the Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters related to the Mortgage Loan if it is a Specially Serviced Loan and (2) the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to all Major Decisions, and, except as set forth below the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to implement or consent to any Major Decision as to which the Controlling Note Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or thirty (30) days

with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after receipt of the written recommendation and analysis and such additional information requested by the Controlling Note Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Controlling Note Holder in order to make a judgment with respect to such Major Decision. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall seek the consent of the Controlling Note Holder with respect to any Major Decision to the same extent that it is responsible under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for seeking the consent of the Directing Certificateholder with respect to any Major Decision with respect to any other mortgage loan serviced thereunder (assuming that a “Control Termination Event” or similar event under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement has not occurred and is not continuing). The Controlling Note Holder may also direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Note Holder may deem advisable.

If the Controlling Note Holder fails to notify the applicable Servicer of its approval or disapproval of any proposed Major Decision within ten (10) Business Days (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after delivery to the Controlling Note Holder by the applicable Servicer of written notice of a proposed Major Decision (which notice shall contain a legend, in conspicuous boldface type, substantially similar to the following: “THIS IS A REQUEST FOR ACTION APPROVAL. IF THE CONTROLLING NOTE HOLDER FAILS TO APPROVE OR DISAPPROVE THE ENCLOSED ACTION WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS, SUCH ACTION MAY BE DEEMED APPROVED”) together with any information requested by the Controlling Note Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Controlling Note Holder in order to make a judgment, then upon the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default), such Major Decision shall be deemed to have been approved by the Controlling Note Holder.

In the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any other matter requiring consent of the Controlling Note Holder is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders (as a collective whole) and the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, has made a reasonable effort to contact the Controlling Note Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Controlling Note Holder’s response.

No objection, direction, consent or advice contemplated by the preceding paragraphs may require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of the Mortgage Loan Documents, applicable law, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, this Agreement, the REMIC Provisions or the Master Servicer or Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 7.                Appointment of Special Servicer. The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have the right (subject to the terms, conditions and limitations in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer with the Required Special Servicer Rating. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a

-33-

Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to each other Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and each other party to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement and delivering a Rating Agency Communication to each Rating Agency (or obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency, but only if required by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement). The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the other parties hereto of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid. If a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer has occurred that affects any Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Note Holder acknowledges and agrees that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at a Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non-Controlling Note Holder. Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Lead Securitization’s “collection account”.

Section 8.                Payment Procedure.

(a)               The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf), in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Collection Account and/or related Companion Distribution Account (each as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) pursuant to and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deposit such payments to the applicable account within one Business Day of receipt of properly identified and available funds by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower (provided, that to the extent that any payment is received after 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on any given Business Day, the Master Servicer is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to deposit such payments into the applicable account within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such properly identified and available funds but, in any event, the Master Servicer is

-34-

required to deposit such payments into the applicable account within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such properly identified and available funds).

(b)               If the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of any Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to any Note Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the related Non-Lead Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) repay to the Lead Securitization Note Holder any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall have theretofore distributed to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall have been required to pay to any Mortgage Loan Borrower, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or such other Person with respect thereto.

(c)               If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) makes any payment to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder before the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Note Holder does not receive the corresponding payment within five (5) Business Days of its payment to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf).

(d)               Each Note Holder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it shall promptly remit such excess to the applicable Note Holder, subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder under the Mortgage Loan. Such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 9.                Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders. No Note Holder shall have any liability to any other Note Holder with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Note Holder; provided, that, notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, each Servicer will nevertheless be subject to the obligations and standards (including the Servicing Standard) set forth in the related Securitization Servicing Agreement.

-35-

The Note Holders acknowledge that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Note Holder may have under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) shall have no liability whatsoever to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Note Holder to exercise such rights, so long as the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) complies with the terms of this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the Servicing Standard).

Section 10.            Bankruptcy. Subject to Sections 2(a) and 5(c), each Note Holder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Servicer on its behalf) has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against any Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to any Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of any Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder further agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder, and not any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against any Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. The Note Holders hereby appoint the Lead Securitization Note Holder as their agent, and grant to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with any case by or against any Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Note Holders hereby agree that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by any Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement.

Section 11.            Representations of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement is within its corporate powers, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and does not contravene such Note Holder’s charter or any law or contractual restriction binding upon such Note Holder, and that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Note Holder enforceable against such Note Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the

-36-

enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, in good standing and in possession of all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that (a) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Note Holder, (b) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Note Holder have been obtained or made and (c) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, there is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against such Note Holder, an adverse outcome of which would materially and adversely affect its performance under this Agreement.

Section 12.            No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between the Note Holders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates and if any Note Holder chooses to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future mortgage loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Note Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from any other Note Holder a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates.

Section 13.            Other Business Activities of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder acknowledges that each other Note Holder or its Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Borrower Party, and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to any such party and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 14.            Sale of the Notes.

(a)               Except as otherwise provided in Section 14(c) below, each Note Holder agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its respective Note (or a participation interest in such Note) (a “Transfer”) except to a Qualified Institutional Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Promptly after any such Transfer, any non-transferring Note Holders shall be provided with (x) a representation from each transferee or the transferring Note Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender (except in the case of a Transfer in accordance with the immediately following sentence or a Transfer by a Note Holder to an entity that constitutes a Qualified Institutional Lender pursuant to clause (b)(iii) of the definition thereof) and (y) a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 15 (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement). If a Note Holder intends to Transfer

-37-

its respective Note, or any portion thereof, to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, it must first (a) obtain the consent of each non-transferring Note Holder and (b) if any such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, provide each of the applicable engaged Rating Agencies for such Securitization Trust with a Rating Agency Communication (or, if the transferring Note Holder is the Lead Securitization Note Holder, obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the applicable Rating Agencies for such Securitization Trust). Notwithstanding the foregoing, without each non-transferring Note Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if any non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, until a Rating Agency Confirmation is obtained from each engaged Rating Agency for such Securitization Trust, no Note Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note (or a participation interest in such Note) to a Borrower Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. The transferring Note Holder agrees that it shall pay the expenses of any non-transferring Note Holder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and any Controlling Note Holder or Controlling Note Holder Representative) and all expenses relating to any Rating Agency Communication or Rating Agency Confirmation in connection with any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Note Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of any other Note Holder or of any other Person or having to provide any Rating Agency Communication or having to obtain any Rating Agency Confirmation, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in a Note, other than to a Borrower Party. None of the provisions of this Section 14(a) shall apply in the case of (1) a sale of the Lead Securitization Note(s) together with all of the Non-Lead Securitization Notes, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or (2) a transfer by the Special Servicer, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, of the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan, to a single member limited liability or limited partnership, 100% of the equity interest in which is owned directly or indirectly, through one or more single member limited liability companies or limited partnerships, by the Lead Securitization Trust.

(b)               In the case of any Transfer of a participation interest in any of the Notes, (i) the respective Note Holders’ obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Note Holders shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Lead Securitization Note Holder and any Persons acting on its behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Note Holder in connection with such Note Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Note Holder had not sold such participation interest.

(c)               Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Note Holder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than a Borrower Party or any Affiliate thereof) which has extended a credit or repurchase facility to such Note Holder and that is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each applicable Rating Agency (or, if not rated by an applicable Rating Agency, an equivalent (or higher) rating from any two of Fitch, Moody’s and S&P) or to a Person with respect to which a Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained (any of the foregoing, a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 14(c), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Note Holder or any person which

-38-

Controls such Note that is secured by its Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Note Holder to each other Note Holder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), each other Note Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Note Holder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) days to cure a default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations to each other Note Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Note Holder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Note Holder and accept any cure thereof by such Note Pledgee which such pledging Note Holder has the right (but not the obligation) to effect hereunder, as if such cure were made by such pledging Note Holder; (v) that such other Note Holder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Note Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to each other Note Holder and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Note Holder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Note Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Note Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Note Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Note Holder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Note Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Note Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases each other Note Holder and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Note Holder on account of such other Note Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or such other Note Holder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. A Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Note Holder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Note Holders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than a Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof which is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Note Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Note Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 14(c) shall remain effective as to any Note Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Note Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

-39-

(d)               Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Note Holder then such Note Holder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                             The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Note Holder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note requires a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii)                          The Conduit Credit Enhancer is a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)                       Such Note Holder pledges (or sells, transfers or assigns as part of a repurchase facility) its interest in its Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

(iv)                      The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit agree that, if such Note Holder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Note Holder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Note Holder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v)                         Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Note Holder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 15.            Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder. The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 15, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of each other Note Holder. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such person as its agent under this Section 15 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding any Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter

-40-

accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 14, from and after the date of such assignment. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 14 and this Section 15. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and each other Note Holder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 16.            Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW). EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 17.            Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a)               SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION AND ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN RESPECT THEREOF, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE GENERAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF;

(b)               CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)               AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH A PARTY HEREIN SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

-41-

(d)               AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 18.            Modifications. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Note Holder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Note Holders shall not amend or modify this Agreement without first obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency then rating any securities of any Securitization; provided that no such Rating Agency Confirmation shall be required in connection with a modification (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct any scrivener’s error, to correct or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (ii) with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, to make provisions of this Agreement consistent with other provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with the creation of New Notes pursuant to Section 32).

Section 19.            Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as provided herein, including without limitation, with respect to the Trustee, Certificate Administrator, Master Servicer and Special Servicer and any Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee, none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Person not a party hereto. Subject to Section 14 and Section 15, each Note Holder may assign or delegate its rights or obligations under this Agreement. Upon any such assignment, the assignee shall be entitled to all rights and benefits of the applicable Note Holder hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the representations in Section 11 shall not be binding upon any Securitization Trust.

Section 20.            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and the words “executed,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import as used above and elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to this transaction shall include, in addition to manually executed signatures, images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, any electronic sound, symbol, or process, attached to or logically associated with a contract or other record and executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the record). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

-42-

summarize or otherwise describe the subject matter of the paragraphs and shall not be given any consideration in the construction of this Agreement.

Section 22.            Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable laws, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 23.            Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

Section 24.            Withholding Taxes. (a) If the Lead Securitization Note Holder or any Mortgage Loan Borrower shall be required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder constituting a Non-Exempt Person, such Lead Securitization Note Holder, in its capacity as servicer, shall be entitled to do so with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to such Note Holder), provided that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall furnish such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting such Note Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which such Note Holder is subject to tax.

(b)               Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall and hereby agrees to indemnify the Lead Securitization Note Holder against and hold the Lead Securitization Note Holder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payment made to such Note Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by such Note Holder to the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payments made to such Note Holder, it being expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) such Note Holder, upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder and at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(c)               Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) represents that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that neither the Lead Securitization Note Holder nor the Mortgage Loan Borrower is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to

-43-

time as necessary during the term of this Agreement, each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder or Servicer, as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Note Holder substantiating that such Note Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is not obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, (i) if a Note Holder is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (ii) if a Note Holder is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the Mortgage Loan Borrower is treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, such Note Holder shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments), Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, or successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by such Note Holder, as evidence of such Note Holder’s exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note or otherwise until the holder of such Note shall have furnished to the Lead Securitization Note Holder requested forms, certificates, statements or documents.

Section 25.            Custody of Mortgage Loan Documents. Prior to the Lead Securitization Date, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Notes, which will be held by the respective Note Holders or their designated custodians) will be held by the Initial Agent (or a duly appointed interim servicer or custodian on its behalf) on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes. If the Lead Securitization is not also the Note A-1 Securitization, then on and after the Lead Securitization Date, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than any Notes not included in such Lead Securitization, which will be held by the respective Note Holders or their designated custodians) shall be held in the name of the trustee (and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes. On and after the Note A-1 Securitization Date, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than any Notes not included in the Note A-1 Securitization) shall be transferred to and held in the name of the trustee (and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor) under the Note A-1 PSA, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes.

Section 26.            Cooperation in Securitization.

(a)               Each Note Holder acknowledges that any Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization. In connection with a Securitization and subject to the terms of the preceding sentence, at the request of the related Securitizing Note Holder, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall use reasonable efforts, at such Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, to satisfy, and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to satisfy, the market standards to which such Securitizing Note Holder customarily adheres or that may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with such Securitization, including,

-44-

entering into (or consenting to, as applicable) any modifications to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Documents and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute such modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents, in any such case, as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies to effect such Securitization; provided, that no Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall be required to modify or amend this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Documents (or consent to such modification, as applicable) in connection therewith, if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to or priority of such payments to, such Non-Securitizing Note Holder or (ii) materially increase such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s obligations or materially decrease such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s rights, remedies or protections. In connection with any Securitization, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall provide for inclusion in any disclosure document relating to such Securitization such information concerning such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note as the related Securitizing Note Holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, and such Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall, at the Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, cooperate with the reasonable requests of each Rating Agency and such Securitizing Note Holder in connection with such Securitization (including, without limitation, reasonably cooperating with the Securitizing Note Holder (without any obligation to make additional representations and warranties) to enable the Securitizing Note Holder to make all necessary certifications and deliver all necessary opinions (including customary securities law opinions) in connection with the Mortgage Loan and such Securitization), as well as in connection with all other matters and the preparation of any offering documents thereof and to review and respond reasonably promptly with respect to any information relating to such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note in any Securitization document. Each Note Holder acknowledges that in connection with any Securitization, the information provided by it in its capacity as a Non-Securitizing Note Holder to the related Securitizing Note Holder may be incorporated into the offering documents for such Securitization. Each Securitizing Note Holder and each Rating Agency shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, each Non-Securitizing Note Holder. The Securitizing Note Holder shall reasonably cooperate with each Non-Securitizing Note Holder by providing all information reasonably requested that is in the Securitizing Note Holder’s possession in connection with such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s preparation of disclosure materials in connection with a Securitization.

Upon request, each Securitizing Note Holder shall deliver to each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder drafts of the preliminary and final offering memoranda, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus and any other disclosure documents and the pooling and servicing agreement for the Securitization of such Securitizing Note Holder’s Note and provide reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such documents.

Section 27.            Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be given by (i)  e-mail (during business hours) if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (ii) reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid) or (iii) certified United States mail, postage prepaid return receipt requested, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses set forth on Exhibit B hereto, or at such other address as any party shall hereafter inform the other party by written notice given as aforesaid. All written notices so given shall be deemed effective upon receipt.

-45-

Section 28.           Broker. Each Note Holder represents to each other that it has not dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent or other person that may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 29.            Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a)              The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any documents delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 14 and Section 15;

(b)               The Agent may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

(c)               The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any Note Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(d)               The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(e)               The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any documents delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15;

(f)               The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder; and

(g)                The Agent represents and warrants that it is a Qualified Institutional Lender.

Section 30.            Reserved.

Section 31.            Resignation or Termination of Agent. The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. BMO, as Initial Agent, may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of BMO without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of the Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be

-46-

deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement, and any successor master servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place thereof without any further notice or other action.

Section 32.            Resizing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for so long as any Initial Note Holder or an affiliate thereof (an “Original Entity”) is the owner of a Note that is not included in a Securitization (each, an “Owned Note”), such Original Entity shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated notes or additional notes (in each case, as applicable, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of an Owned Note to such New Notes; or severing an Owned Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of such Owned Note provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the aggregate principal of such Owned Note prior to such amendments, (ii) all Notes continue to have the same weighted average interest rate as the Notes prior to such amendments, (iii) all Notes pay on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement, and (iv) the Original Entity holding the New Notes shall notify each other Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing of such modified allocations and principal amounts. If the Lead Securitization Note Holder so requests, the Original Entity holding the New Notes (and any subsequent holder of such Notes) shall execute a confirmation of the continuing applicability of this Agreement to the New Notes, as so modified. Except for the foregoing reallocation and for modifications pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as discussed in Section 5), no Note may be modified or amended without the consent of its holder and the consent of the holder of each other Note. In connection with the foregoing (provided the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (v) above are satisfied, with respect to clauses (i) through (iv), as certified by the Original Entity, on which certification the Master Servicer can rely), the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and directed to execute amendments to the Mortgage Loan Documents and this Agreement on behalf of any or all of the Note Holders, as applicable, solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal and that each New Note shall be a “Note” hereunder and for the purpose of adding and modifying any definitions related thereto. If more than one New Note is created hereunder, for purposes of exercising the rights of a Controlling Note Holder or Non-Controlling Note Holder hereunder, the “Controlling Note Holder” or “Non-Controlling Note Holder”, as applicable, shall be as provided in the definitions of such terms in this Agreement; provided that the Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to designate any New Note created from the existing Controlling Note to be a Non-Controlling Note hereunder.

For clarification purposes, Penalty Charges (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) paid on each Note shall first, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer for any interest accrued on any Property Advances and reimbursement of any Property Advances in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, second, be used to reduce the respective amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee, each Non-Lead Master Servicer or each Non-Lead Trustee for any interest accrued on any P&I Advance made with respect to such Note by such party (if and as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable), third, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay Additional Trust Fund Expenses (including Special Servicing Fees, unpaid Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan (as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and, finally, (i) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to the Lead Securitization Note(s), be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of the remaining

27

amount of Penalty Charges allocable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note, be paid, (x) prior to the securitization of such Note, to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and (y) following the securitization of such Note, to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Any proceeds received by any Note Holder from the sale of master servicing rights with respect to its Note shall be for its own account. Any Note Holder that receives proceeds from the sale of the primary servicing rights with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds”) shall remit to the other Note Holders, promptly upon receipt thereof, such amounts as are required such that each Note Holder receives its pro rata share of such proceeds on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if a Note is held by a Securitization Trust at a time when its Note Holder would be entitled to receive any amount under such preceding sentence, such amount shall be remitted to the Person that was the Note Holder of such Note immediately prior to the transfer of such Note to the depositor for such Securitization. On and after the Lead Securitization Date, if any portion of the Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds is required to be repaid to the Master Servicer, each Person that received any portion of such Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds in its capacity as a Note Holder as contemplated by the preceding sentence (each such Person, a “Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds Recipient”) shall be obligated to pay the Master Servicer its pro rata share of the portion required to be repaid to such Master Servicer; provided, however, that such obligation shall remain an obligation of such Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds Recipient notwithstanding any transfer of the related Note(s) (and the related rights under this Agreement) to a subsequent Note Holder absent an explicit written assumption of such obligation which assumption specifies this last paragraph of Section 3 of this Agreement.

Section 4.                     Workout. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Securitization Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal priorities of each Note as described in Section 3.

Section 5.                       Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)       Subject to this Agreement (including but not limited to Section 5(d)) and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute

28

any foreclosure action or other remedy, and no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever except as explicitly set forth herein with respect to the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that it shall have no right to, and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) the rights, if any, that such Note Holder has to, (i) call or cause the Lead Securitization Note Holder to call an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Securitization Note Holder to file any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Note Holder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or its obligation to follow the Servicing Standard (in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or any liability for failure to do so).

Each Note Holder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder), upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, to sell the Notes as notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. In connection with any such sale, the Special Servicer shall be required to sell the Notes together in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a fair price. Subject to the other provisions of this paragraph and the two following paragraphs and the applicable provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Special Servicer shall accept the first (and, if multiple offers are contemporaneously received, the highest) cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for such Defaulted Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicer shall notify the Controlling Note Holder Representative and each Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative of any inquiries or offers received regarding the sale of such Defaulted Mortgage Loan.

Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan shall be determined by the Special Servicer, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, and by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested Person (provided that the Trustee may not be an offeror) unless (i) the offer is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price, (ii) the offer is the highest offer received and (iii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties; provided, however, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. In all cases under this Agreement (except to the extent the Trustee is not required to determine whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence), in determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the preceding 9-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. The appraiser conducting any such new Appraisal shall be an Appraiser selected by (i) the Special Servicer if no Interested

29

Person is making an offer with respect to the Mortgage Loan and (ii) the Trustee if an Interested Person is so making an offer. The cost of any such Appraisal shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable as, a Property Advance. In determining whether any such offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the prior 9 months), and in determining whether any offer from an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, any Appraiser shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the Mortgage Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. The Purchase Price for the Mortgage Loan shall in all cases be deemed a fair price; provided, however, that with respect to Interested Parties, the requirements of the first sentence of this paragraph must be satisfied. Notwithstanding anything contained in this paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least 5 years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the Mortgage Loan that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee will be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party pursuant to this paragraph will be covered by, and will be reimbursable by the Interested Person; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan if it becomes a Defaulted Mortgage Loan without the written consent of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (provided that such consent is not required from the Non-Controlling Note Holder if it is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to such Non-Controlling Note Holder: (a) at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale, (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File reasonably requested by such Non-Controlling Note Holder that are material to the price of the Mortgage Loan and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by any Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided, that such Non-Controlling Note Holder may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this sentence. Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each of the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Non-Controlling Note Holders and the Non-Controlling Note Holder Representatives shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Mortgage Loan unless such Person is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an agent or Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

30

Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of the related Non-Lead Securitization Note. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver its original Non-Lead Securitization Note, endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to sell any Non-Lead Securitization Note, and the obligations of each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder to execute and deliver instruments or deliver the related Non-Lead Securitization Note upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Securitization Note is repurchased by the Person that sold such Lead Securitization Note into the Lead Securitization from the Lead Securitization Trust in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization. The preceding sentence shall not be construed to grant to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the benefit of any representation or warranty made by the Person that sold such Lead Securitization Note into the Lead Securitization or any document delivery obligation imposed on such Person under any mortgage loan purchase and sale agreement, instrument of transfer or other document or instrument that may be executed or delivered by such Person in connection with the Lead Securitization.

(b)       The administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (or to the extent otherwise provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), by the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, taking into account the interests of all Note Holders as a collective whole. The Note Holders agree to be bound by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Note Holder described hereunder may be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Trustee on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder. The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not be amended in any manner that may materially and adversely affect a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder without such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s prior written consent. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (unless it is the same Person as or an Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) shall be a third-party beneficiary to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to its rights as specifically provided for therein.

31

(c)       The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have, with respect to the Mortgage Loan, all of the same rights and powers of the Controlling Class Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the other mortgage loans included in the Lead Securitization, without limitation, the right to consent and/or consult regarding Major Decisions and other servicing matters, the right to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all Specially Serviced Loans and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to non-Specially Serviced Loans as to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, and the right to direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Class Representative may deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made therein, in each case subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(d)       Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be required (i) to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, to each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), within the same time frame it is required to provide such notice, information or report to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) to consult with each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative); provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to a Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) by the Lead Securitization Note Holder of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report that would be required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative as set forth above, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall no longer be obligated to consult with such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), whether or not such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the non-binding consultation rights of the Non-Controlling Note Holders (or their respective Non-Controlling Note Holder Representatives) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth

32

in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders. In no event shall the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by a Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative).

In addition to the non-binding consultation rights provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to attend annual meetings (which may be held telephonically or in person, at the discretion of the Servicer) with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf), upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.

(e)       If any Note is included as an asset of a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a “REMIC”), within the meaning of Section 860D(a) of the Code, then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interest of the pro rata share of each Note Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Note Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC which includes the Notes (or any portion thereof). Each Note Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected by compliance with any REMIC provisions in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan.

Anything herein or in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that one of the Notes is included in a REMIC and one or more Notes are not, such Note Holder whose Notes are not included in a REMIC shall not be required to reimburse such Note Holder whose Note is included in a REMIC or any other Person for payment of (i) any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to any other Note Holder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

33

Section 6.                     Appointment of Controlling Note Holder Representative and Non-Controlling Note Holder Representatives.

(a)       The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Controlling Note Holder Representative”). The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Note Holder Representative. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower, its principal or any Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower), including, without limitation, the Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Note Holder, any affiliate of the Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party. No such Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Note Holder. Any Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until the Controlling Note Holder has notified the Servicer or Trustee of such appointment and, if the Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative provides any Servicer or Trustee with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment, an address and facsimile number for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and facsimile numbers). The Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to any Servicer. None of the Servicers, Operating Advisor and Trustee shall be required to recognize any person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until they receive such information from the Controlling Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder agrees to inform each such Servicer or Trustee of the then-current Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(b)       Neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will have any liability to any other Note Holder or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder (whether acting in place of the Controlling Note Holder Representative when no Controlling Note Holder Representative shall have been appointed hereunder or otherwise exercising any right, power or privilege granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over any other Note Holder, and that the Controlling Note Holder Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of a Note Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Controlling Note Holder Representative or the Controlling Note Holder, as the case may be, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Controlling Note Holder or any of their respective officers, directors,

34

employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

(c)       Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (with respect to such Note Holder, the “Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative”). All of the provisions relating to the Controlling Note Holder and the Controlling Note Holder Representative set forth in Section 6(a) (except those contained in the last sentence thereof) and Section 6(b) shall apply to each Non-Controlling Note Holder and each Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative mutatis mutandis. The Non-Controlling Note Holder Representatives, unless and until the Lead Securitization Note Holder (and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) is notified otherwise, shall be the Initial Note Holders of the Non-Controlling Notes, provided that at any time a Non-Controlling Note is included in a Securitization, references to a “Non-Controlling Note Holder” herein shall mean, with respect to such Note, the Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative or any other party assigned the rights to exercise the rights of a “Non-Controlling Note Holder” hereunder, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and as to the identity of which the Lead Securitization Note Holder (and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) has been given written notice.

Section 7.                      Appointment of Special Servicer. The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have the right at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer in lieu thereof. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to each other Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the then existing Special Servicer and other parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, a Rating Agency Confirmation, if required by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), if any; provided, that in the event the replacement Special Servicer does not have the Required Special Servicer Rating from any Rating Agency rating a Non-Lead Securitization, a Rating Agency Confirmation will be required to be obtained with respect to such Rating Agency and delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the other parties hereto of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to

35

designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid. If a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer has occurred that affects a Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced) solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced). The Controlling Note Holder and the Non-Controlling Note Holders acknowledge and agree that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at a Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non-Controlling Note Holder. Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account.

Section 8.                        Payment Procedure.

(a)       The Lead Securitization Note Holder, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Loan Combination Custodial Account pursuant to and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deposit such amounts to the applicable account within two (2) Business Days after receipt of properly identified funds by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower; provided, however, that in the event the Master Servicer is in receipt of properly identified funds that are not available to the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer may instead deposit such amounts into the related Loan Combination Custodial Account on the same Business Day that such properly identified funds become available to the Master Servicer.

(b)       If the Lead Securitization Note Holder determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of any Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to the Lead Securitization Note Holder, any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Note Holder repay to the Lead Securitization Note Holder any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have theretofore distributed to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have been

36

required to pay to any Mortgage Loan Borrower, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or such other Person with respect thereto.

(c)       If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Note Holder makes any payment to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder before the Lead Securitization Note Holder has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Note Holder does not receive the corresponding payment within five (5) Business Days of its payment to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(d)       Each Note Holder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it shall promptly remit such excess to the applicable Note Holder, subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder under the Mortgage Loan. Such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 9.                       Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders. Each Initial Note Holder shall have no liability to any other Note Holder with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Initial Note Holder; provided, however, that to the extent that any Securitization Servicing Agreement imposes a different standard of care on any party thereto, then such Securitization Servicing Agreement shall control.

The Note Holders acknowledge that, subject to the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Note Holder may have under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) shall have no liability whatsoever to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Note Holder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, however, that the Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 10.                Bankruptcy. Subject to Section 5(d), each Note Holder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Servicer has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the

37

Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder further agrees that only the Servicer, and not any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or any of their representatives, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. The Note Holders hereby appoint the Servicer as their agent, and grant to the Servicer an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Note Holders hereby agree that, upon the request of the Servicer, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Servicer may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by the Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 11.               Representations of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement is within its corporate powers, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and does not contravene such Note Holder’s charter or any law or contractual restriction binding upon such Note Holder, and that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Note Holder enforceable against such Note Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, in good standing and in possession of all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that (a) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Note Holder, (b) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Note Holder have been obtained or made and (c) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, there is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against such Note Holder, an adverse outcome of which would materially and adversely affect its performance under this Agreement.

Section 12.                 Independent Analysis of Each Note Holder. Each Note Holder acknowledges that, except for the representations made in Section 11, it has, independently and without reliance upon any other Note Holders and based on such documents and information as such Note Holder has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to purchase its respective Note. Each Note Holder hereby acknowledges that the other Note Holders shall have no responsibility for (i) the collectability of the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the validity, enforceability or legal effect of any of the Mortgage Loan Documents or the title insurance policy or policies or any

38

survey furnished or to be furnished in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, (iii) the validity, sufficiency or effectiveness of the lien created or to be created by the Mortgage Loan Documents, or (iv) the financial condition of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder assumes all risk of loss in connection with its respective Note for reasons other than gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement by any other Note Holder or gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith by any Servicer.

Section 13.            No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between the Note Holders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates and if any Note Holder chooses to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future mortgage loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Note Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from any other Note Holder a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates.

Section 14.               Other Business Activities of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder acknowledges that each other Note Holder or its Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, any entity that is a holder of debt secured by direct or indirect ownership interests in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any entity that is a holder of a preferred equity interest in the Mortgage Loan Borrower (each, a “Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party”), and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Parties and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 15.                 Sale of the Notes.

(a)       Each Note Holder agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its respective Note (a “Transfer”) except to a Qualified Institutional Lender. Promptly after the Transfer, the non-transferring Note Holder shall be provided with (x) a representation from a transferee or the applicable Note Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender (except in the case of a Transfer in accordance with the immediately following sentence) and (y) a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 16 (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement). If a Note Holder intends to Transfer its respective Note, or any portion thereof, to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, it must first obtain the consent of each non-transferring Note Holder and, if any such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, a confirmation in writing from each Rating Agency that such Transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without each non-transferring Note Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if any non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization

39

Trust, without a confirmation in writing from each related Rating Agency that such Transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization, no Note Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note (or a participation interest in such Note) to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or a Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. The transferring Note Holder agrees that it shall pay the expenses of any non-transferring Note Holder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee) and all expenses relating to the confirmation from the Rating Agencies in connection with any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Note Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of any other Note Holder, the Rating Agencies or any other Person, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in a Note. None of the provisions of this Section 15(a) shall apply in the case of (1) a sale of all the Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or (2) a transfer by the Special Servicer, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, of the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, to a single member limited liability or limited partnership, 100% of the equity interest in which is owned directly or indirectly, through one or more single member limited liability companies or limited partnerships, by the Lead Securitization Trust.

For the purposes of this Agreement, if any Rating Agency shall, in writing, waive, decline or refuse to review or otherwise engage any request for a confirmation hereunder from such Rating Agency that a proposed action will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization, such waiver, declination, or refusal shall be deemed to eliminate, for such request only, the condition that such confirmation by such Rating Agency (only) be obtained for purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of clarity, any such waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any request for such confirmation hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any subsequent request for such Rating Agency confirmation hereunder and the condition for such Rating Agency confirmation pursuant to this Agreement for any subsequent request shall apply regardless of any previous waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in such prior request.

(b)       In the case of any Transfer of a participation interest in any of the Notes, (i) the respective Note Holders’ obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Note Holders shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Lead Securitization Note Holder and any Persons acting on its behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Note Holder in connection with such Note Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Note Holder had not sold such participation interest.

(c)       Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Note Holder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof) which has extended a credit facility to such Note Holder and that is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency (a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 15(c), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee

40

to a Note Holder or any person which Controls such Note that is secured by its Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Note Holder to each other Note Holder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), each other Note Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give such Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Note Holder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) days to cure a default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations to each other Note Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Note Holder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Note Holder; (v) that such other Note Holder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Note Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to each other Note Holder and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Note Holder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Note Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Note Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Note Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Note Holder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Note Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Note Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases each other Note Holder and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Note Holder on account of such other Note Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or such other Note Holder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Note Holder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Note Holders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof which is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Note Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Note Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 15(c) shall remain effective as to any Note Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Note Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(d)       Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Note Holder then

41

such Note Holder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                        The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Note Holder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note requires a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii)                     The Conduit Credit Enhancer is a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)                  Such Note Holder pledges its interest in its Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

(iv)                 The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit agree that, if such Note Holder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Note Holder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Note Holder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v)                    Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Note Holder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 16.                Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder. The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 16, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of each other Note Holder. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such person as its agent under this Section 16 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding any Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 15, from and after the date of such assignment. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall

42

not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 15 and this Section 16. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and each other Note Holder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 17.       Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW). EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 18.         Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a)       SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION AND ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN RESPECT THEREOF, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE GENERAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF;

(b)       CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)       AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH A PARTY HEREIN SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(d)       AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

43

Section 19.               Modifications. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Note Holder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Note Holders shall not amend or modify this Agreement without first receiving a written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment or modification will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of its then current ratings of the securities issued in connection with a Securitization; provided that no such confirmation from the Rating Agencies shall be required in connection with a modification (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (ii) to make other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 20.                Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as provided herein, including without limitation, with respect to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Lead Master Servicers, the Non-Lead Special Servicers and the Non-Lead Trustees, none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Person not a party hereto. Subject to Section 15, Section 16 and the last paragraph of Section 3, each Note Holder may assign or delegate its rights or obligations under this Agreement. Upon any such assignment, the assignee shall be entitled to all rights and benefits of the applicable Note Holder hereunder.

Section 21.              Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and the words “executed,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import as used above and elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to this transaction shall include, in addition to manually executed signatures, images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, any electronic sound, symbol, or process, attached to or logically associated with a contract or other record and executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the record). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

Section 22.                 Captions. The titles and headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to summarize or otherwise describe the subject matter of the paragraphs and shall not be given any consideration in the construction of this Agreement.

Section 23.               Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any

44

provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable laws, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 24.             Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

Section 25.                 Withholding Taxes. (a) If the Lead Securitization Note Holder or the Mortgage Loan Borrower shall be required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder constituting a Non-Exempt Person, the Lead Securitization Note Holder, in its capacity as servicer, shall be entitled to do so with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to such Note Holder), provided that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall furnish such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting such Note Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which such Note Holder is subject to tax.

(b)       Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall and hereby agrees to indemnify the Lead Securitization Note Holder against and hold the Lead Securitization Note Holder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payment made to such Note Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by such Note Holder to the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payments made to such Note Holder, it being expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) such Note Holder, upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder and at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(c)       Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) represents (for the benefit of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that neither the Lead Securitization Note Holder nor the Mortgage Loan Borrower is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time as necessary during the term of this Agreement, each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder or Servicer, as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Note Holder substantiating that such Note Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is not obligated under applicable

45

law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, (i) if a Note Holder is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (ii) if a Note Holder is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the Mortgage Loan Borrower is treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, such Note Holder shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments) or Form W-8BEN, or successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by such Note Holder, as evidence of such Note Holder’s exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note or otherwise until the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have furnished to the Lead Securitization Note Holder requested forms, certificates, statements or documents.

Section 26.                Custody of Mortgage Loan Documents. The originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Non-Lead Securitization Notes) (a) prior to the Lead Securitization will be held by the Initial Agent (or a custodian on its behalf) and (b) after the Lead Securitization, will be held by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (in the name of the Trustee and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), in each case, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes.

Section 27.                  Cooperation in Securitization.

(a)       Each Note Holder acknowledges that any Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization. In connection with a Securitization and subject to the terms of the preceding sentence, at the request of the related Securitizing Note Holder, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall use reasonable efforts, at such Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, to satisfy, and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to satisfy, the market standards to which such Securitizing Note Holder customarily adheres or that may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with the Securitization, including, entering into (or consenting to, as applicable) any modifications to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Documents and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute such modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents, in any such case, as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies to effect the Securitization; provided, however, that no Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall be required to modify or amend this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Documents (or consent to such modification, as applicable) in connection therewith, if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to or priority of such payments to, such Non-Securitizing Note Holder or (ii) materially increase such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s obligations or materially decrease such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s rights, remedies or protections. In connection with any Securitization, each Non-Securitizing Note Holder agrees to provide for inclusion in any disclosure document relating to such Securitization such information concerning such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note as the related Securitizing Note Holder reasonably determines to be necessary

46

or appropriate, and such Non-Securitizing Note Holder covenants and agrees that it shall, at the Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, cooperate with the reasonable requests of each Rating Agency and such Securitizing Note Holder in connection with such Securitization (including, without limitation, reasonably cooperating with the Securitizing Note Holder (without any obligation to make additional representations and warranties) to enable the Securitizing Note Holder to make all necessary certifications and deliver all necessary opinions (including customary securities law opinions) in connection with the Mortgage Loan and such Securitization), as well as in connection with all other matters and the preparation of any offering documents thereof and to review and respond reasonably promptly with respect to any information relating to such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note in any Securitization document. Each Note Holder acknowledges that the information provided by it to a Securitizing Note Holder may be incorporated into the offering documents for the related Securitization. Each Securitizing Note Holder and each Rating Agency shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, each Non-Securitizing Note Holder. The Securitizing Note Holder will reasonably cooperate with each Non-Securitizing Note Holder by providing all information reasonably requested that is in the Securitizing Note Holder’s possession in connection with the Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s preparation of disclosure materials in connection with a Securitization.

Upon request, the Securitizing Note Holder shall deliver to each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder drafts of the preliminary and final offering memoranda, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus and any other disclosure documents and the pooling and servicing agreement for the related Securitization and provide reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such documents.

Section 28.               Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be given by (i) facsimile transmission (during business hours) if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (ii) reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid) or (iii) certified United States mail, postage prepaid return receipt requested, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses set forth on Exhibit B hereto, or at such other address as any party shall hereafter inform the other party by written notice given as aforesaid. All written notices so given shall be deemed effective upon receipt.

Prior to Securitization of a Non-Lead Securitization Note (including any New Notes), all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or the related Non-Controlling Note Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) only need to be delivered to the related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative and, when so delivered to the related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Following Securitization of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or the related Non-Controlling Note Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be delivered to the related Non-

47

Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Special Servicer (who then may forward such items to the party entitled to receive such items as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and, when so delivered to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Special Servicer, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Section 29.               Broker. Each Note Holder represents to each other that no broker was responsible for bringing about this transaction.

Section 30.                 Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a)       The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15 and Section 16;

(b)       The Agent may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

(c)       The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any Note Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(d)       The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(e)       The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 16;

(f)       The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder; and

(g)       The Agent represents and warrants that it is a Qualified Institutional Lender.

Section 31.                 Reserved.

Section 32.               Resignation of Agent. The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. The Initial Agent may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the

48

Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of the Initial Agent or any successor thereto prior to such Securitization without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of such Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement, and any successor master servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place thereof without any further notice or other action.

Section 33.             Resizing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (but subject to the Servicing Standard), for so long as a Note Holder (an “Original Entity”) is the owner of a Note that is not included in a Securitization (each, an “Owned Note”), such Original Entity shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated notes or additional notes (in each case, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of an Owned Note to such New Notes or severing an Owned Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of such Owned Note provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the aggregate principal of such Owned Note prior to such amendments, (ii) all Notes continue to have the same weighted average interest rate as the Notes prior to such amendments, (iii) all Notes pay pro rata and on a pari passu basis (including after a default and in connection with a condemnation or prepayment) and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement, and (iv) the Original Entity holding the New Notes shall notify the Lead Securitization Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing of such modified allocations and principal amounts. Each New Note shall constitute a “Note” hereunder without any further act or deed. If the Lead Securitization Note Holder so requests, the Original Entity holding the New Notes (and any subsequent holder of such Notes) shall execute a confirmation of the continuing applicability of this Agreement to the New Notes, as so modified. Except for the foregoing reallocation or severance and for modifications pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as discussed in Section 5), no Note may be modified or amended without the consent of its holder and the consent of each other Note Holder. In connection with the foregoing (provided the conditions set forth in (i) through (iv) above are satisfied, as certified by the Original Entity, on which certification the Master Servicer can rely), the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and directed to execute amendments to the Mortgage Loan Documents and (if the Original Entity so requests and directs) this Agreement on behalf of any or all of the Note Holders, as applicable, solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal and that each New Note shall be a “Note” hereunder and for the purpose of adding and modifying any definitions related thereto; provided, however, that no such amendment to the Mortgage Loan Documents or this Agreement requested by the Original Entity may require the Master Servicer to violate the Servicing Standard. If the Controlling Note is involved in any resizing contemplated by this Section 33, the applicable Note Holder shall be entitled to designate any one of the related New Notes as the Controlling Note, and the definitions of “Controlling Note” and “Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly. Any New Note that is created in a resizing contemplated by this Section 33 and is not the Controlling Note shall be deemed to be a Non-Controlling Note under this

49

Agreement, the definitions of “Non-Controlling Note” and “Non-Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly to include such New Notes, and the applicable Note Holders of such Non-Controlling Notes shall have the same rights and responsibilities as all other Non-Controlling Note Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, Rating Agency Confirmation shall not be required for any amendments to this Agreement required to facilitate the terms of this Section 33.

Section 2.                Servicing.

(a)   Each Noteholder acknowledges and agrees that, subject to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced pursuant to this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be obligated to advance monthly payments of principal or interest in respect of the Notes other than for any Note in the Lead Securitization (and a Non-Lead Master Servicer may be required to advance monthly payments of principal and interest on a Non-Lead Securitization Note pursuant to the terms of the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) if such principal or interest is not paid by the Mortgage Loan Borrower but shall be obligated to advance delinquent real estate taxes, insurance premiums and other expenses related to the maintenance of the Mortgaged Property and maintenance and enforcement of the lien of the

18

Mortgage thereon, subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement (including a determination of recoverability thereunder). Each Noteholder acknowledges that each Initial Noteholder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include the related Note in a Securitization and agrees that it will reasonably cooperate with such other Noteholder, at such other Noteholder’s expense, to effect such Securitization. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Noteholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the appointment of the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Trustee under the Servicing Agreement by the Depositor, and the appointment of the Special Servicer as the initial Special Servicer under the Servicing Agreement by the Depositor (subject to replacement by the Controlling Noteholder as provided herein) and agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement. Each Noteholder hereby appoints the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee in the Lead Securitization as such Noteholder’s attorney-in-fact to sign any documents reasonably required with respect to the administration and servicing of the Mortgage Loan on its behalf under the Servicing Agreement (subject at all times to the rights of the Noteholders set forth herein and in the Servicing Agreement). In no event shall the Servicing Agreement require any Servicer to enforce the rights of any Noteholder against any other Noteholder or limit any Servicer in enforcing the rights of one Noteholder against any other Noteholder; however, this statement shall not be construed to otherwise limit the rights of one Noteholder with respect to any other Noteholder. Each Servicer shall be required pursuant to the Servicing Agreement to service the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, this Agreement, the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, the Servicing Agreement, any intercreditor agreement and applicable law, and shall not take any action or refrain from taking any action or follow any direction inconsistent with the foregoing.

(b)   The Master Servicer shall be the lead master servicer on the Mortgage Loan, and from time to time it (or the Trustee, to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) (i) shall be required to make Property Protection Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan, subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and (ii) may be required to make principal and interest Advances on any Note in the Lead Securitization, if and to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement. The Master Servicer or Trustee shall be required to provide written notice to the Non-Lead Master Servicer and the Non-Lead Trustee of any principal and interest Advance it has made with respect to the Lead Securitization Note within two (2) Business Days of making such Advance. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for a Property Protection Advance, first from funds on deposit in each of the Collection Account and the Companion Distribution Account that (in any case) represent amounts received on or in respect of the Mortgage Loan in the manner provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and then, in the case of Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advances, if such funds on deposit in the Collection Account and Companion Distribution Account are insufficient, from general collections of the Lead Securitization as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and from general collections of the Non-Lead Securitization as provided below. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for Advance Interest Amounts on a Property Protection Advance or a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance, in the manner and from the sources provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, including from general

19

collections of the Lead Securitization and from general collections of the Non-Lead Securitization as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, obtains funds from general collections of the Lead Securitization as a reimbursement for a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance or any Advance Interest Amounts on a Property Protection Advance or a Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance, the Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder (including from general collections or any other amounts from the Non-Lead Securitization Trust) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, reimburse the Lead Securitization for its pro rata share of such Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advance or Advance Interest Amounts. If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer determines that a proposed principal and interest Advance with respect to the Lead Securitization Note or Property Protection Advance with respect to the Mortgage Loan, if made, or any outstanding principal and interest Advance or Property Protection Advance previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), the Master Servicer shall provide the Non-Lead Master Servicer written notice of such determination promptly after such determination was made together with such reports that were delivered to the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, in connection with notification of its determination of nonrecoverability.

In addition, the Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder (including, but not limited to, the Non-Lead Securitization Trust) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pay or reimburse the Lead Securitization for the Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder’s pro rata share of any additional trust fund expenses with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, any other fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and allocable to the Noteholders pursuant to this Agreement and as to which the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor or the Depositor, as applicable, is entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and any fees, costs or expenses related to obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation and allocated to the Noteholders, in each case to the extent amounts on deposit in the Companion Distribution Account that are allocated to the Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts (which such reimbursement shall be made, if the Non-Lead Securitization Note has been included in a Non-Lead Securitization, from general collections or any other amounts from such Non-Lead Securitization Trust). The Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder agrees to indemnify (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of the Indemnified Parties against any Indemnified Items to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Companion Distribution Account that are allocated to the Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, the Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for its pro rata share of the insufficiency (including, if the Non-Lead Securitization Note has been included in a Non-Lead Securitization, from general collections or any other amounts from such Non-Lead Securitization Trust).

The Non-Lead Master Servicer may be required to make principal and interest Advances on a Non-Lead Securitization Note, from time to time, subject to the terms of the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be

20

entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a principal and interest Advance to be made on the Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Non-Lead Master Servicer and the Non-Lead Special Servicer and the Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a principal and interest Advance to be made on a Non-Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, and the Non-Lead Master Servicer or the Non-Lead Trustee shall be required to notify each other servicer and trustee with respect to a Securitization of the amount of its principal and interest Advance within two (2) Business Days of making such Advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable (with respect to the Lead Securitization Note) or the Non-Lead Master Servicer, the Non-Lead Special Servicer or the Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable (with respect to a Non-Lead Securitization Note), determines that a proposed principal and interest Advance, if made, would be non-recoverable or an outstanding principal and interest Advance is or would be non-recoverable, or if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, subsequently determines that a proposed Property Protection Advance would be non-recoverable or an outstanding Property Protection Advance is or would be non-recoverable, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee (as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee) or the Non-Lead Master Servicer or the Non-Lead Trustee (as provided in the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the Non-Lead Master Servicer, the Non-Lead Special Servicer or the Non-Lead Trustee) shall notify the Master Servicer and the Trustee, or the Non-Lead Master Servicer and the Non-Lead Trustee, as the case may be, within two (2) Business Days of making such determination. Each of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Non-Lead Master Servicer and the Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, will only be entitled to reimbursement for a principal and interest Advance that becomes non-recoverable and Advance Interest Amounts thereon first from the Collection Account or the Companion Distribution Account from amounts allocable to the Mortgage Loan for which such principal and interest Advance was made, and then, if funds are insufficient, (i) in the case of the Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the Lead Securitization Trust, pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of the Non-Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the Non-Lead Securitization Trust, as and to the extent provided in the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(c)   At any time after the Lead Securitization Date that the Lead Securitization Note is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced in accordance with the servicing provisions set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or a Substitute Servicing Agreement as if such agreement was still in full force and effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that the Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall have no further obligations to advance monthly payments of principal or interest except as specifically agreed to by the Servicer; provided, further, however, that until a replacement servicing agreement is in place, the actual servicing of the Mortgage Loan may be performed by any nationally recognized commercial mortgage loan servicer appointed by Lead Securitization Noteholder and the special servicer appointed by the Controlling Noteholder and does not have to be performed by the service providers set forth under the Lead Securitization

21

Servicing Agreement; provided, further, however, that until a replacement servicing agreement has been entered into, if a Non-Lead Securitization Note becomes the subject of an Asset Review pursuant to the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Custodian shall reasonably cooperate with the Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer in connection with such Asset Review by providing the Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer with any documents reasonably requested by the Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer, but only to the extent (x) such documents are in the possession of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, and (y) the Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer has not been able to obtain such documents from the related mortgage loan seller.

(d)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any obligation of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof shall be performed by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, as set forth in the Servicing Agreement.

(e)   The Servicing Agreement shall contain provisions to the effect that:

(i)                     if an event of default under the Servicing Agreement has occurred (A) with respect to the Master Servicer under the Servicing Agreement that affects a Noteholder or any class of commercial mortgage securities backed by a Note, and the Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated under the Servicing Agreement, then the Non-Lead Securitization Noteholders shall be entitled to direct the Trustee to appoint a sub-servicer solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan (or if the Mortgage Loan is currently being sub-serviced, to replace the current sub-servicer, but only if such original sub-servicer is in default under the related sub-servicing agreement); and (B) the appointment (or replacement) of a sub-servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan, as contemplated in clause (A) above, will in any event be subject to written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such appointment would not, in and of itself, cause a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then-current ratings assigned to the securities issued in connection with any Securitization;

(ii)                 any payments received on the Mortgage Loan shall be paid by the Master Servicer (a) to each of the Noteholders (other than the Non-Lead Securitization Noteholders) on the “master servicer remittance date” under the Servicing Agreement and (b) by the earlier of (x) the Master Servicer Remittance Date (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and (y) the Business Day following the “determination date” (or any term substantially similar thereto) as defined in the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in each case as long as the date on which remittance is required under this clause (ii) is at least one (1) Business Day after the scheduled monthly payment date under the Mortgage Loan Agreement;

(iii)                each Non-Lead Noteholder shall be entitled to receive, and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall provide access to, any information relating to the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan Borrower or the Mortgaged Property as such Non-Lead Noteholder may reasonably request and would be customarily in the possession of, or collected or known by, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loan and, in any event, all information that is required to be

22

provided to holders of the securities issued by the Lead Securitization Trust that includes but is not limited to standard CREFC reports and Asset Status Reports, provided that if an interest in the requesting Noteholder or its related Note is held by a Borrower Party, then such requesting Noteholder shall not be entitled to receive the Asset Status Report or any other information relating to the Special Servicer’s workout strategy or any “excluded information” or analogous term under the Servicing Agreement;

(iv)               each Noteholder is an intended third party beneficiary in respect of the rights afforded it under the Servicing Agreement and may directly enforce such rights;

(v)                   the Servicing Agreement may not be amended without the consent of each Non-Lead Noteholder if such amendment would be materially adverse to such Non-Lead Noteholder or would materially adversely affect the Mortgage Loan or any Non-Lead Noteholder’s rights with respect thereto or would alter any term that is defined herein by reference to the Servicing Agreement in a manner that is materially adverse to a Non-Lead Noteholder;

(vi)                the Special Servicer selected by the Controlling Noteholder shall be named as the Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan by the earlier of (x) the closing of the Lead Securitization or (y) the Mortgage Loan becoming a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan under any other Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that such Special Servicer has the Required Special Servicer Rating of, or otherwise be acceptable to, each of the Rating Agencies rating each Securitization;

(vii)              any matter affecting the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan that requires delivery of a Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to the Servicing Agreement shall also require delivery of a Rating Agency Confirmation for each Non-Lead Securitization Note and the applicable Rating Agencies.

(f)    Each Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder agrees that, if its Non-Lead Securitization Note is included in a Securitization, it shall cause the applicable Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to contain provisions to the effect that:

(i)            such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder shall be responsible for its pro rata share of any Property Protection Advances (and Advance Interest Amounts thereon) and any additional trust fund expenses, but only to the extent that they relate to servicing and administration of the Notes and the Mortgaged Property, including without limitation, any unpaid special servicing fees, liquidation fees and workout fees relating to the Notes, and that in the event that the funds received with respect to the Notes are insufficient to cover such Property Protection Advances or additional trust fund expenses, (A) the Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pay or reimburse the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, or the Lead Securitization Trust, as applicable, out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder’s pro rata share of any such Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advances (together with Advance Interest Amounts thereon) and/or additional trust fund expenses

23

(including compensation due to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the extent related to the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property), and (B) if the Servicing Agreement permits the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee to reimburse itself from the Lead Securitization Trust’s general account, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, may do so, and the Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse the Lead Securitization Trust out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for the Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder’s pro rata share of any such Nonrecoverable Property Protection Advances (together with Advance Interest Amounts thereon) and/or additional trust fund expenses (including compensation due to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the extent related to the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property);

(ii)                   each of the Indemnified Parties shall be indemnified (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of such Indemnified Parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of Servicing Agreement and, in the case of the Lead Securitization Trust, to the extent of any additional trust fund expenses with respect to the Mortgage Loan) by the Non-Lead Securitization Trust, against any of the Indemnified Items to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Companion Distribution Account that are allocated to the Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, the Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for the Non-Lead Securitization Note’s pro rata share of the insufficiency out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement;

(iii)                 the Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Trustee or Non-Lead Certificate Administrator will be required to deliver to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Operating Advisor (i) promptly following the Non-Lead Securitization, notice of the deposit of the Non-Lead Securitization Note into a Securitization Trust (which notice may be (x) in the form of delivery (which may be by email) of a copy of the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (y) by email notification together with contact information for the Non-Lead Trustee, the Non-Lead Certificate Administrator, the Non-Lead Master Servicer, the Non-Lead Special Servicer and the party designated to exercise the rights of the Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder as a “Non-Controlling Noteholder” under this Agreement), accompanied by a certified copy of the executed Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) notice of any subsequent change in the identity of the Non-Lead Master Servicer, the Non-Lead Trustee or the party designated to exercise the rights of the Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder as a “Non-Controlling Noteholder” under this Agreement (together with the relevant contact information) (which may be in the form of email delivery of a copy of such notice); and

Section 4.                Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)   Subject to this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 4(f) below) and the Servicing Agreement and consistent with the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy and no other Noteholder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever with respect to the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, except as set forth in this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement. Subject to this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 4(f) below) and consistent with the Servicing Standard, each Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder agrees that it shall have no right to, and hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder) the rights, if any, that such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder has to (i) call or cause the Lead Securitization Noteholder to call an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Securitization Noteholder to file any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead Noteholder in connection with the administration of the

27

Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Noteholder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein).

Upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, each Non-Lead Noteholder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder) to sell each Non-Lead Note together with the Lead Securitization Note as notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement. In connection with any such sale, the Special Servicer shall be required to sell each Non-Lead Note together with the Lead Securitization Note in the manner set forth in the Servicing Agreement and shall be required to require that all offers be submitted in writing. Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for such Notes shall be determined by the Trustee or Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two bona fide other offers are received from independent third parties. In determining whether any offer from an Interested Person received represents a fair price for such Notes, the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with the Servicing Agreement within the preceding nine (9) month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. The Trustee shall select the appraiser conducting any such new Appraisal. In determining whether any such offer from an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for such Notes, the Trustee shall instruct the appraiser to take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal or updated Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to the Servicing Agreement), as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the affected Notes, the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. The Trustee may conclusively rely on the opinion of an Independent appraiser or other Independent expert in real estate matters retained by the Trustee at the expense of the Noteholders in connection with making such determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder) shall not be permitted to sell the Non-Lead Securitization Notes if they become a Defaulted Mortgage Loan without the written consent of each Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder (provided that such consent is not required if such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder is a Borrower Party) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder: (a) at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Non-Lead Securitization Notes; (b) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale, (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File (as defined in the Servicing Agreement) reasonably requested by the Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder that are material to the price of the Non-Lead Securitization Notes and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to the other offerors and the Controlling Class Representative) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided, that such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this sentence. Subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, each of the Controlling Noteholder, the Controlling Class Representative, any other Noteholder (or any controlling class representative or directing holder on its behalf under the Non-

28

Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) shall be permitted to bid at any sale of the Non-Lead Securitization Note unless such Person is a Borrower Party.

Each Non-Lead Noteholder hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Noteholder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Noteholder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of its Non-Lead Note. Each Non-Lead Noteholder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Noteholder, such Non-Lead Noteholder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of Lead Securitization Noteholder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Noteholder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver its original Non-Lead Note endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Noteholder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority and obligation of the Lead Securitization Noteholder to sell each Non-Lead Note, and the obligations of each Non-Lead Noteholder to execute and deliver instruments or deliver its Non-Lead Note upon request of the Lead Securitization Noteholder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which no Note is held in a Securitization. The preceding sentence shall not be construed to grant to any Non-Lead Noteholder the benefit of any representation or warranty made by such seller or any document delivery obligation imposed on such seller under any mortgage loan purchase and sale agreement, instrument of transfer or other document or instrument that may be executed or delivered by such seller in connection with the Lead Securitization.

(b)   The administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement. Each Noteholder agrees to be bound by the terms of the Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall service the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and consistent with the Servicing Standard. Servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, by the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Servicing Agreement and consistent with the Servicing Standard. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, taking into account the interests of each of the Noteholders as a collective whole, and each Non-Lead Noteholder who is not a Borrower Party shall be deemed a third party beneficiary of such provisions of the Servicing Agreement.

(c)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 4(f)), if the Lead Securitization Noteholder in connection with a Workout of the Mortgage Loan modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate or scheduled amortization payments on such Mortgage Loan are reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on such Mortgage Loan are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment (other than an increase in the Interest Rate or increase in scheduled amortization payments) is made to any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan, the full economic effect of all waivers, reductions or deferrals of amounts due on the

29

Mortgage Loan attributable to such Workout shall be borne by the Noteholders (pro rata based on the Principal Balances of their respective Notes), in each case up to the amount otherwise due on such Note(s).

(d)   All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Noteholder described hereunder may be exercised by the Servicers on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder in accordance with the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement. Each Non-Lead Noteholder shall be provided access to any website that an investor would be permitted to access in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Servicing Agreement, it being understood and agreed that each Non-Lead Noteholder is subject to any restrictions on the access to such websites contained in the Servicing Agreement.

(e)   If any Note is included as an asset of a REMIC, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall each qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Noteholders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interests of the Noteholders therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Noteholders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three months after the earliest startup day of any REMIC which includes the Lead Securitization Note (or any portion thereof). The Noteholders agree that the provisions of this Section 4(e) shall be effected by compliance by the Lead Securitization Noteholder or its assignees with this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement or any other agreement which governs the administration of the Mortgage Loan or the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s interests therein. All costs and expenses of compliance with this Section 4(e), to the extent that such costs and expenses relate to administration of a REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense, shall be borne by each Noteholder with respect to the REMIC containing the Note owned by such Noteholder.

Anything herein or in the Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that a Note is included in a REMIC and the other Notes are not, the other Noteholders shall not be required to reimburse such Noteholder that deposited its Note in the REMIC or any other Person for payment of (i) any Taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such Taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to either such other Noteholder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

30

(f)  (i)   Subject to clause (ii) or (iii) below, with respect to any consent, modification, amendment or waiver under or other action in respect of the Mortgage Loan (whether or not a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred and is continuing) that would constitute a Major Decision, the Servicer shall provide the Controlling Noteholder with at least ten (10) Business Days (or, in the case of a determination of an Acceptable Insurance Default, 20 days) prior notice requesting consent to the requested Major Decision. The Servicer shall not take any action with respect to such Major Decision (or make a determination not to take action with respect to such Major Decision), unless and until the Special Servicer receives the written consent of the Controlling Noteholder before implementing a decision with respect to such Major Decision.

(ii)                   If the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer acting on its behalf) has not received a response from the Controlling Noteholder with respect to such Major Decision within five (5) Business Days after delivery of the notice of a Major Decision, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deliver an additional copy of the notice of a Major Decision in all caps bold 14-point font: “THIS IS A SECOND NOTICE. FAILURE TO RESPOND WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS OF THIS SECOND NOTICE WILL RESULT IN A LOSS OF YOUR RIGHT TO CONSENT WITH RESPECT TO THIS DECISION.” and if the Controlling Noteholder fails to respond to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) with respect to any such proposed action within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such second notice, the Controlling Noteholder, as applicable, shall have no further consent rights with respect to the specific action set forth in such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or if a failure to take any such action at such time would be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, the Servicer may take actions with respect to such Mortgaged Property before obtaining the consent of the Controlling Noteholder if the Servicer reasonably determines in accordance with the Servicing Standard that failure to take such actions prior to such consent would materially and adversely affect the interest of the Noteholders as a collective whole, and the Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Controlling Noteholder. The foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or a Servicer acting on its behalf) of its duties to comply with the Servicing Standard.

(iii)                Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on its behalf) shall not follow any advice or consultation provided by the Controlling Noteholder that would require or cause the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on its behalf) to violate any applicable law, including the REMIC Provisions, be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard, require or cause the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on its behalf) to violate provisions of this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, require or cause the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or any Servicer acting on its behalf) to violate the terms of the Mortgage Loan, or materially expand the scope of any Lead Securitization Noteholder’s (or any Servicer acting on its behalf) responsibilities under this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement.

The Special Servicer shall be required to provide copies to each Non-Controlling Noteholder of any notice, information and report that is required to be provided to the Controlling Noteholder pursuant to the Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions, or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report, within the same time frame such notice, information and report is required to be provided to the Controlling Noteholder, and at any time the Controlling Noteholder is the Lead Securitization Noteholder, the

31

Special Servicer shall be required to consult with each Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, any Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report, and consider alternative actions recommended by such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholder; provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to any Non-Controlling Noteholder by the Special Servicer of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and reports, the Special Servicer shall no longer be obligated to consult with such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholders, whether or not such Non-Lead Securitization Noteholders have responded within such ten (10) Business Day period.

The Noteholders acknowledge that the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement may contain certain provisions that give the Operating Advisor certain non-binding consultation rights with respect to Major Decisions related to compliance with the Risk Retention Rules applicable to the Lead Securitization.

(g)   The Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall obtain Appraisals that meet the requirements of, and at the times required pursuant to, the terms of the Servicing Agreement.

(h)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Servicing Agreement, if at any time a Borrower Party is a Noteholder, then (i) such Borrower Party shall not have any rights as a Controlling Noteholder or a Controlling Class Representative, (ii) such Borrower Party shall have no right to appoint or terminate the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, (iii) such Borrower Party shall have no right to consult with or advise the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, and shall have no right to review and approve or comment on any Asset Status Report and (iv) in each and every instance where, pursuant to this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer must take into account the interests of each Noteholder (or words of similar import), such consideration shall be given to the Borrower Party only in its capacity as a holder of the applicable Note.

Section 5.                Special Servicer. The Controlling Noteholder, at its expense (including, without limitation, the reasonable costs and expenses of counsel to any third parties and costs and expenses of the terminated Special Servicer), shall have the right, at any time from time to time, to appoint a replacement Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Controlling Noteholder shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, with or without cause, upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Special Servicer (provided, however, that the Controlling Noteholder shall not be liable for any termination or similar fee in connection with the removal of the Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 5); such termination not be effective unless and until (A) each Rating Agency delivers a Rating Agency Confirmation (to the extent any portion of the Mortgage Loan has been securitized); (B) the initial or successor Special Servicer has assumed in writing (from and after the date such successor Special Servicer becomes the Special Servicer) all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Special Servicer under the Servicing Agreement from and after the date it becomes the Special Servicer as they relate to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to an assumption agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; and (C) the Trustee shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that (x) the designation of such replacement to serve as Special Servicer is in compliance

32

with the Servicing Agreement, (y) such replacement will be bound by the terms of the Servicing Agreement with respect to such Mortgage Loan and (z) subject to customary qualifications and exceptions, the applicable Servicing Agreement will be enforceable against such replacement in accordance with its terms. The Lead Securitization Noteholder shall promptly provide copies to any terminated Special Servicer of the documents referred to in the preceding sentence. The Lead Securitization Noteholder will reasonably cooperate with the Controlling Noteholder in order to satisfy the foregoing conditions, including the Rating Agency Confirmation.

The Controlling Noteholder agrees and acknowledges that the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement may contain provisions such that any Special Servicer could be terminated under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement based on a recommendation by the Operating Advisor if (A) the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that (1) the Special Servicer has failed to comply with the Servicing Standard and (2) a replacement of the Special Servicer would be in the best interest of the holders of securities issued under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as a collective whole) and (B) an affirmative vote of requisite certificateholders is obtained. The Controlling Noteholder will retain its right to remove and replace the Special Servicer, but the Controlling Noteholder may not restore a Special Servicer that has been removed in accordance with the preceding sentence.

Section 6.                Payment Procedure.

(a)   The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf), in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, will deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account for the Notes established pursuant to the Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall establish a segregated sub-account for amounts due to each Noteholder. The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deposit such amounts to the applicable account within two (2) Business Days following the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s (or the Servicer’s acting on its behalf) receipt of properly identified and available funds from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

(b)   If the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of a Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to such Noteholder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to such Noteholder and such Noteholder will promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) repay to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall have theretofore distributed to such Noteholder, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Noteholder shall have been required to pay to the Mortgage Loan Borrower, the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, any other Noteholder or such other Person with respect thereto.

33

(c)   If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) makes any payment to any other Noteholder before the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) does not receive the corresponding payment within three (3) Business Days of its payment to such other Noteholder, then such other Noteholder will, at the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s (or the Servicer’s on its behalf) request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf).

(d)   Each Noteholder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it will promptly remit such excess to the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) subject to this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement and to be distributed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from any other Noteholder, as applicable, with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such other Noteholder, as applicable, under the Mortgage Loan, provided, that each Noteholder’s obligations under this Section 6 are separate and distinct obligations from one another and in no event shall the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) enforce the obligations of one Noteholder against another Noteholder. Each Noteholder’s obligations under this Section 6 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 7.                Limitation on Liability of the Noteholders. No Noteholder (including any Servicer on a Noteholder’s behalf, but only to the extent that the Servicing Agreement does not impose any other standard upon any Servicer, in which case the Servicing Agreement shall control) shall have any liability to any other Noteholder except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Noteholder.

Each Noteholder acknowledges that, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, any other Noteholder may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that such Noteholder may have under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of each other Noteholder and that such Noteholder shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Noteholder in connection with such Noteholder’s exercise of rights or any omission by such Noteholder to exercise such rights; provided, however, that such Noteholder shall not be protected against any liability to any other Noteholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence.

Section 8.                Bankruptcy. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(f) hereof and the Servicing Standard, each Noteholder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or the Servicer on its behalf) has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the

34

Mortgage Loan Borrower. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(f) hereof and the Servicing Standard, each Noteholder further agrees that only the Lead Securitization Noteholder, as a creditor, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(f), the Noteholders hereby appoint the Lead Securitization Noteholder as their agent, and grant to the Lead Securitization Noteholder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to the Controlling Noteholder in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Noteholders, hereby agree that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Noteholder but subject to the provisions of Section 4(f), each other Noteholder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Lead Securitization Noteholder all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Lead Securitization Noteholder may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by any Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

35

Each Noteholder assumes all risk of loss in connection with its Note except as specifically set forth herein.

Section 11.            No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between or among any of the Noteholders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. None of the Noteholders shall have any obligation whatsoever to offer to any other Noteholder the opportunity to purchase a Note interest in any future loans originated by such Noteholder or its Affiliates, and if such Noteholder chooses to offer to any other Noteholder the opportunity to purchase a Note interest in any future mortgage loans originated by the such Noteholder or their respective Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as the offering Noteholder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion.

36

Section 14.            Sale of the Notes.

(a)   Each Noteholder agrees that it will not Transfer all or any portion of its Note except in accordance with this Section 14. Each Noteholder agrees it shall not Transfer more than 49% (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in its Note, except to a Qualified Institutional Lender, unless (i) prior to a Securitization of any Note, the other Noteholders have consented to such Transfer, in which case the related transferee (and its Affiliates) shall thereafter be deemed to be a “Qualified Institutional Lender” for all purposes under this Agreement, (ii) after a Securitization of any Note, a Rating Agency Confirmation has been received with respect to such Transfer, in which case the related transferee shall thereafter be deemed to be a “Qualified Institutional Lender” for all purposes under this Agreement, or (iii) such Transfer is in connection with a sale by a Securitization Trust; provided that if such Transfer is a Transfer of the Lead Securitization Note, such Transfer is to a Qualified Institutional Lender. With respect to any Transfers pursuant to (i) or (ii) above (except with respect to a Transfer to a Securitization Trust) such transferee must (x) assume in writing the obligations of the transferring Noteholder hereunder and agree to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement and, if applicable, the Servicing Agreement and (y) remake each of the representations and warranties contained herein for the benefit of the other Noteholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the non-transferring Noteholder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if such non transferring Noteholder’s Note is in a Securitization, without a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency that has been engaged by the Depositor to rate the securities issued in connection with such Securitization, no Noteholder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note to a Borrower Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. None of the provisions of this Section 14(a) shall apply in the case of a sale of all of the Notes together, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(b)   Except for a Transfer made in connection with a Securitization, or a Transfer made by a Noteholder to an Affiliate, at least five (5) days prior to a transfer of any Note, the transferring Noteholder shall provide to the other Noteholders and, if any Securitization Trust is are outstanding, to the Rating Agencies, a certification that such transfer will be made in accordance with this Section 14, such certification to include (1) the name and contact information of the transferee and (2) if applicable, a certification by the transferee that it is a Qualified Institutional Lender.

(c)   In the case of any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of a participation interest in a Note, (i) such Noteholder’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Noteholder shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the other Noteholders and any Persons acting on their behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Noteholder in connection with such Noteholder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, and (iv) all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Noteholder had not sold such participation interest; provided, however, that if the applicable participant is a Qualified Institutional Lender (and delivers to the other Noteholders a certification from an authorized officer confirming its status as a Qualified Institutional Lender), such Noteholder, by written notice to the other Noteholders, may delegate to such participant such Noteholder’s right to exercise the rights of the Controlling Noteholder hereunder and under the Servicing Agreement.

37

(d)   The Noteholders acknowledge and agree that, to the extent specifically required, any Rating Agency Confirmation may be granted or denied by the Rating Agencies in their sole and absolute discretion and that such Rating Agencies may charge the transferring Noteholder customary fees in connection with providing such Rating Agency Confirmation.

(e)   Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Noteholder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof) which has extended a credit or repurchase facility to such Noteholder and that is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency (a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 14(e), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Noteholder or any person which Controls such Noteholder that is secured by such Noteholder’s interest in the applicable Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without (a) prior to the first Securitization of any Note, the consent of each other Noteholder and (b) after the closing of the first Securitization of any Note, Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Noteholder to each other Noteholder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), each other Noteholder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Noteholder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Noteholder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) Business Days to cure a default by the pledging Noteholder in respect of its obligations to each other Noteholder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Noteholder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Noteholder and accept any cure thereof by such Note Pledgee which such pledging Noteholder has the right (but not the obligation) to effect hereunder, as if such cure were made by such pledging Noteholder; (v) that such other Noteholder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Noteholder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to each other Noteholder and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Noteholder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Noteholder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Noteholder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Noteholder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Noteholder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Noteholder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Noteholder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases each other Noteholder and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Noteholder on account of any Noteholder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or any such other Noteholder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Noteholder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this

38

Agreement. In such event, the Noteholders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof which is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Noteholder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Noteholder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 14(e) shall remain effective as to any Noteholder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Noteholder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(f)    Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Noteholder then such Noteholder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                      The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Noteholder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note will require a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii)                   The Conduit Credit Enhancer and conduit manager (if Moody’s rates the Securitization) will be a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)                Such Noteholder will pledge (or sell, transfer or assign as part of a repurchase facility) its interest in the applicable Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

(iv)               The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit will agree that, if such Noteholder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Noteholder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Noteholder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v)                    Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not, without obtaining the consent of each other Noteholder, have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Noteholder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 15.            Registration of Transfer. In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding (x) any participant and (y) any Note Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Noteholder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including

39

the restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 14, from and after the date of such assignment. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a Trustee shall not be required to execute an assignment and assumption agreement in connection with any Transfer of a Note if the obligations are assumed pursuant to the Servicing Agreement. In connection with a Transfer of a Note, the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 14 and this Section 15. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Noteholder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and any other Noteholder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Upon a Securitization of the Lead Securitization Note, the Certificate Administrator shall automatically become and be the Agent.

Section 16.            Registration of the Notes. The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial Note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 15, and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Note owing to each such Noteholder, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, except in the case of the Initial Noteholders who may hold their Notes through a nominee. Upon request of a Noteholder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of the Noteholders. To the extent another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, the Noteholders hereby designate such person as its agent under this Section 16 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register. The parties intend for the Notes to be in registered form for federal income tax purposes under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

Section 17.            Statement of Intent. The Agent and each Noteholder intend that the Notes be classified, and the arrangement hereby be maintained, in a manner consistent with rules applicable to a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of chapter 1 of the Code that is a fixed investment trust within the meaning of Treasury Regulation §301.7701-4(c), and the parties will not take any action inconsistent with such classification. It is neither the purpose nor the intent of this Agreement to create a partnership, joint venture, “taxable mortgage pool” or association taxable as a corporation among the parties.

Section 18.            No Pledge. This Agreement shall not be deemed to represent a pledge of any interest in the Mortgage Loan by the Noteholders. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, no Non-Lead Noteholder shall have any interest in any property taken as security for the Mortgage Loan, provided, however, that if any such property or the proceeds of any sale, lease or other disposition thereof shall be received, then each Non-Lead Noteholder shall be entitled to receive its share of such application in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or the Servicing Agreement.

Section 19.            Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR

40

THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES THEREOF.

(b)   CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)   AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH A PARTY HEREIN SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(d)   AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 21.            Modifications; Amendment. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Noteholder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Noteholders shall not amend or modify this Agreement without first receiving a Rating Agency Confirmation; provided that no such confirmation from the Rating Agencies shall be required in connection with a modification or amendment (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Servicing Agreement, (ii) entered into pursuant to Section 32 of this Agreement or (iii) to correct or supplement any provision herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions of this Agreement.

Upon any such assignment, the assignee shall be entitled to all rights and benefits of the applicable Noteholder hereunder, including, without limitation, the right to make further assignments and grant additional Notes.

Section 23.            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and all of such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

The originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Notes) will be held by the Lead Securitization Noteholder (or a custodian acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Noteholder) who shall act as secured party under the Mortgage Loan Documents on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, upon the Lead Securitization, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Notes) shall be held by the Custodian. Each Note shall be held by the respective Noteholder or a custodian appointed by such Noteholder.

Section 28.            Notices.

Section 29.            Broker. Each Noteholder represents to each other Noteholder that no broker was responsible for bringing about this transaction.

Section 30.            Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a)   The Noteholders hereby appoint the Agent to act on their behalf, and the Agent shall act on behalf of the Noteholders;

(b)   The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15;

(c)   The Agent may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

(d)   The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the Noteholders pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(e)   The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Securities Act, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(f)    The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15; and

(g)   The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder.

Section 31.            Termination of Agent. The Agent may be terminated at any time upon ten (10) days prior written notice from the Lead Securitization Noteholder. In the event that the Agent is terminated pursuant to this Section 31, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination.

43

The Agent may resign at any time upon notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Noteholders, has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. AREF2, as Initial Agent, may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Noteholder. AREF2, as Initial Agent, shall promptly and diligently attempt to cause such Servicer to act as successor Agent, and, if such Servicer declines to act in such capacity, shall promptly and diligently attempt to cause a similar servicer to act as successor Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Noteholders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Certificate Administrator shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of the Initial Agent or any successor thereto prior to such Securitization without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of the Certificate Administrator, as Certificate Administrator under the Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Certificate Administrator as Agent under this Agreement.

Section 32.            Resizing. In connection with the Mortgage Loan, each Noteholder agrees, subject to clause (iii) below, that if a Noteholder determines that it is advantageous to resize its Note by causing the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated or additional pari passu notes (in either case, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of such Note to such New Notes, each Noteholder other than the resizing Noteholder shall cooperate with the resizing Noteholder to effect such resizing at such resizing Noteholder’s expense; provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following the creation thereof is no greater than the principal balance of such Note or Notes immediately prior to the creation of the New Notes, (ii) the weighted average Interest Rate of all outstanding New Notes following the creation thereof is the same as the Interest Rate of the related Note or Notes immediately prior to the creation of the New Notes, and (iii) no such resizing shall (x) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to, any other Noteholder, or priority of such payments, or (y) increase any other Noteholder’s obligations or decrease any other Noteholder’s rights, remedies or protections. In connection with any resizing of a Note, the related Noteholder may allocate its rights hereunder among the New Notes in any manner in its sole discretion.

Section 33.            Conflict. To the extent of any inconsistency between the Servicing Agreement, on one hand, and this Agreement, on the other, this Agreement shall control.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Note Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the appointment of the Master Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor and the Trustee under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Depositor, and the appointment of the Special Servicer as the initial Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Depositor (subject to replacement by the

-14-

Controlling Note Holder as provided herein) and agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Note Holder hereby appoints the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee in the Lead Securitization as such Note Holder’s attorney-in-fact to sign any documents reasonably required with respect to the administration and servicing of the Mortgage Loan on its behalf under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (subject at all times to the rights of the Note Holder set forth herein and in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement). In no event shall the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement require the Servicer to enforce the rights of any Note Holder or limit the Servicer in enforcing the rights of one Note Holder against the other Note Holder; however, this statement shall not be construed to otherwise limit the rights of one Note Holder with respect to the other Note Holder. Each Servicer shall be required pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to service the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, this Agreement and applicable law, and shall not take any action or refrain from taking any action or follow any direction inconsistent with the foregoing.

At any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Note Holders agree to cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced by one or more servicers, each of which has been agreed upon by the Note Holders, pursuant to a servicing agreement that has servicing terms substantially similar to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and all references herein to the “Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement” shall mean such subsequent servicing agreement; provided, however, that if a Non-Lead Securitization Note is in a Securitization, then a written confirmation shall have been obtained from each Rating Agency that the appointment of the servicer(s) pursuant to such servicing agreement would not, in and of itself, cause a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then-current ratings assigned to the securities issued in connection with such Securitization; provided, further, however, that until a replacement servicing agreement has been entered into, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement as if such agreement was still in full force and effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan, by the Servicer in the Lead Securitization or by any Master Servicer appointed by the Lead Securitization Note Holder that is a qualified servicer meeting the requirements of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or by any Special Servicer appointed by the Lead Securitization Note Holder that satisfies the Required Special Servicer Rating.

(b)               The Master Servicer shall be the lead master servicer on the Mortgage Loan, and from time to time it (or the Trustee, to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) (i) shall be required to make Property Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan, subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and (ii) may be required to make P&I Advances on the Lead Securitization Note, if and to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for a Property Advance, first from funds on deposit in the Loan Combination Custodial Account for the Mortgage Loan that (in any case) represent amounts received on or in respect of the Mortgage Loan in the manner provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and then, in the case of Nonrecoverable Property Advances, if such funds on deposit in the Loan Combination Custodial Account are insufficient, from general collections of the Lead Securitization as provided in the

-15-

Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and from general collections of each Non-Lead Securitization as provided below. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for Advance Interest Amounts on a Property Advance or a Nonrecoverable Property Advance, in the manner and from the sources provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, including from general collections of the Lead Securitization and, in the case of Property Advances, from general collections of each Non-Lead Securitization as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, obtains funds from general collections of the Lead Securitization as a reimbursement for a Nonrecoverable Property Advance or any Advance Interest Amounts on a Property Advance or a Nonrecoverable Property Advance, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including from general collections or any other amounts from any Non-Lead Securitization Trust) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, reimburse the Lead Securitization for its pro rata share of such Nonrecoverable Property Advance or Advance Interest Amounts.

In addition, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including, but not limited to, the related Non-Lead Securitization Trust) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pay or reimburse the Lead Securitization for such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of any Additional Trust Fund Expenses with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, any other fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor or the Depositor, as applicable, is entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and any fees, costs or expenses related to obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation, in each case to the extent amounts on deposit in the Loan Combination Custodial Account that are allocated to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts (which such reimbursement shall be made, if such Non-Lead Securitization Note has been included in a Non-Lead Securitization, from general collections or any other amounts from such Non-Lead Securitization Trust). Each Non- Lead Securitization Holder agrees to indemnify (i) (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of the following parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the Depositor (and any director, officer, employee or agent of any of the foregoing, to the extent such parties are identified as indemnified parties in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in respect of other mortgage loans) and (ii) the Lead Securitization Trust (such parties in clause (i) and the Lead Securitization Trust, collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property (or, with respect to the Operating Advisor, incurred in connection with the provision of services for the Mortgage Loan) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Items”) to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Loan Combination Custodial Account that are allocated to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for its pro rata share of the

-16-

insufficiency (including, if a Non-Lead Securitization Note has been included in a Non-Lead Securitization, from general collections or any other amounts from the related Non-Lead Securitization Trust).

Each Non-Lead Master Servicer may be required to make P&I Advances on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note, from time to time, subject to the terms of the related Non- Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Non-Lead Master Servicer, each Non-Lead Special Servicer and each Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, and each Non-Lead Master Servicer or each Non-Lead Trustee shall be required to notify each other servicer and trustee with respect to a Securitization of the amount of its P&I Advance within two (2) Business Days of making such advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable (with respect to the Lead Securitization Note) or any Non-Lead Master Servicer, any Non-Lead Special Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable (with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note), determines that a proposed P&I Advance, if made, would be non-recoverable or an outstanding P&I Advance is or would be non-recoverable, or if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, subsequently determines that a proposed Property Advance would be non- recoverable or an outstanding Property Advance is or would be non-recoverable, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee (as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee) or any Non-Lead Master Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee (as provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of the a determination of non- recoverability by a Non-Lead Master Servicer, a Non-Lead Special Servicer or a Non-Lead Trustee) shall notify the Master Servicer and the Trustee, and/or each other Non-Lead Master Servicer and Non-Lead Trustee, as the case may be, within two (2) Business Days of making such determination. Each of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, any Non-Lead Master Servicer and any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, will only be entitled to reimbursement for a P&I Advance that becomes non-recoverable and advance interest thereon first from the Loan Combination Custodial Account from amounts allocable to the Note for which such P&I Advance was made, and then, if funds are insufficient, (i) in the case of the Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the Lead Securitization Trust, pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the related Securitization Trust, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(c)               Each Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that it shall cause the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to provide as follows (and to the extent such following provisions are not included in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, they shall be deemed incorporated therein and made a part thereof):

-17-

(i)                           the Master Servicer or Trustee shall be required to provide written notice to each Non-Lead Master Servicer and each Non-Lead Trustee of any P&I Advance it has made with respect to the Lead Securitization Note within two (2) Business Days of making such advance;

(ii)                        if the Master Servicer determines that a proposed P&I Advance with respect to the Lead Securitization Note or Property Advance with respect to the Mortgage Loan, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance or Property Advance previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall provide each Non-Lead Master Servicer written notice of such determination promptly after such determination was made together with such reports that the Master Servicer delivered to the Special Servicer or Trustee in connection with notification of its determination of nonrecoverability;

(iii)                     the Master Servicer shall remit all payments received with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note, net of the servicing fees payable to the Master Servicer and Special Servicer with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note, and any other applicable fees and reimbursements payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder by the earlier of (x) the Master Servicer Remittance Date (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and (y) the Business Day following the “determination date” (or any term substantially similar thereto) as defined in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (such determination date, the “Non-Lead Securitization Determination Date”), in each case, as long as the date on which remittance is required under this clause (iii) is at least one (1) Business Day after the scheduled monthly payment date under the Mortgage Loan Agreement;

(v)                        with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note that is held by a Securitization, the Master Servicer agrees to deliver or cause to be delivered or to make

-18-

available to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer all reports required to be delivered by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (which shall include all loan-level reports constituting the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package (IRP)) pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, to the extent related to the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property, such Non-Lead Securitization Note, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee, by the earlier of (x) the Master Servicer Remittance Date and (y) the Business Day following the related Non-Lead Securitization Determination Date, in each case, as long as the date on which delivery is required under this clause (v) is at least one (1) Business Day after the scheduled monthly payment date under the Mortgage Loan Agreement;

(ii)                        each of the Indemnified Parties shall be indemnified (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of such Indemnified Parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and, in the case of the Lead Securitization Trust, to the extent of any Additional Trust Fund Expenses with respect to the Mortgage Loan) by the related Non-Lead Securitization Trust, against any of the Indemnified Items to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items and, to the extent amounts on deposit in the Loan Combination Custodial Account that are allocated to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for the related Non-Lead Securitization Note’s pro rata share of the insufficiency out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement;

(iii)                     each Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Trustee or Non-Lead Certificate Administrator will be required to deliver to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer (i) promptly following Securitization of the related Non- Lead Securitization Note, notice of the deposit of such Non-Lead Securitization Note into a Securitization Trust (which notice may be (x) in the form of delivery (which may be by email) of a copy of the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (y) by email notification together with contact information for the related Non-Lead Trustee, the related Non-Lead Certificate Administrator, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer, the related Non-Lead Special Servicer and the party designated to exercise the rights of the related “Non-Controlling Note Holder” under this Agreement), accompanied by a copy of such executed Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and (ii) notice of any subsequent change in the identity of the related Non-Lead Master Servicer, the related Non-Lead Trustee or the party designated to exercise the rights of the related “Non- Controlling Note Holder” under this Agreement (together with the relevant contact information) (which may be in the form

-24-

of email delivery of a copy of any revised Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement); and

(iv)                the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Lead Securitization Trust shall be third party beneficiaries of the foregoing provisions.

(e)                    Each Note Holder shall:

(i)                       if such Note Holder is a Lead Securitization Note Holder, on the closing date of the Lead Securitization, send a copy (in EDGAR-compatible format) of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the other Note Holders (other than itself); and

(ii)                    if such Note Holder is a Lead Securitization Note Holder, give the other Note Holders (other than itself) written notice (which may be by email) in a timely manner (but no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the applicable filing date) of any re-filing (other than a filing made in connection with a formal amendment of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) by the Depositor of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement subsequent to the Securitization Date if such filing contains revisions or changes that are material to the other Note Holders.

Section 3.                Priority of Payments. Each Note shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Note shall have priority or preference over any portion of the other Note or security therefor.

All amounts tendered by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or otherwise available for payment on or with respect to or in connection with the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property or amounts realized as proceeds thereof, whether received in the form of Monthly Payments, the Balloon Payment, Liquidation Proceeds, proceeds under any guaranty, letter of credit or other collateral or instrument securing the Mortgage Loan, Condemnation Proceeds, or Insurance Proceeds (other than proceeds, awards or settlements to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgage Loan Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents), but excluding (x) all amounts for required reserves or escrows required by the Mortgage Loan Documents (to the extent, in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents) to be held as reserves or escrows or received as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of property protection expenses or Property Advances then due and payable or reimbursable to the Trustee or any Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (y) all amounts that are then due, payable or reimbursable (except for (i) any reimbursements of P&I Advances previously made (and interest thereon) on the Lead Securitization Note, and (ii) any Servicing Fees due to the Master Servicer in excess of the portion of the Servicing Fees calculated at the “primary servicing fee rate” (or analogous term) applicable to the Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) to any Servicer or the Trustee, with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including without limitation, any Additional Trust Fund Expenses relating to the Mortgage Loan (but subject to second paragraph of Section 5(e) hereof) reimbursable to, or payable to, such parties and any Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees, Workout Fees, Assumption Fees, Modification Fees, Penalty Charges (to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph) and any other additional compensation payable pursuant to the Lead

-25-

Securitization Servicing Agreement), shall be applied by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its designee) to the Notes on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis.

For clarification purposes, Penalty Charges (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) paid on each Note shall first, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer for any interest accrued on any Property Advances and reimbursement of any Property Advances in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, second, be used to reduce the respective amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, Trustee, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer or the related Non-Lead Trustee for any interest accrued on any P&I Advance made with respect to such Note by such party (if and as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable), third, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay Additional Trust Fund Expenses (other than Special Servicing Fees, unpaid Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan (as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and, finally, (i) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to the Lead Securitization Note, be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note, be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Section 4.               Workout.              Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Securitization Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal priorities of each Note as described in Section 3.

Section 5.                  Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)               Subject to this Agreement (including but not limited to Section 5(d)) and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy, and no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever except as explicitly set forth herein with respect to

-26-

the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that it shall have no right to, and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) the rights, if any, that such Note Holder has to, (i) call or cause the Lead Securitization Note Holder to call an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Securitization Note Holder to file any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Note Holder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or its obligation to follow the Servicing Standard (in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or any liability for failure to do so).

Each Note Holder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder), upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, to sell the Notes as notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. In connection with any such sale, the Special Servicer shall be required to sell the Notes together in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a fair price. Subject to the other provisions of this paragraph and the two following paragraphs and the applicable provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Special Servicer shall accept the first (and, if multiple offers are contemporaneously received, the highest) cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for such Defaulted Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicer shall notify the Controlling Note Holder Representative and each Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative of any inquiries or offers received regarding the sale of such Defaulted Mortgage Loan.

Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan shall be determined by the Special Servicer, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, and by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested Person (provided that the Trustee may not be an offeror) unless (i) the offer is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price, (ii) the offer is the highest offer received and (iii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties; provided, however, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. In all cases under this Agreement (except to the extent the Trustee is not required to determine whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence), in determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the preceding 9-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. The appraiser conducting any such new Appraisal shall be an Appraiser selected by (i) the Special Servicer if no Interested Person is making an offer with respect to the Mortgage Loan and (ii) the Trustee if an Interested Person is so making an offer. The cost of any such Appraisal shall be covered by, and shall be

-27-

reimbursable as, a Property Advance. In determining whether any such offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the prior 9 months), and in determining whether any offer from an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, any Appraiser shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the Mortgage Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. The Purchase Price for the Mortgage Loan shall in all cases be deemed a fair price; provided, however, that with respect to Interested Parties, the requirements of the first sentence of this paragraph must be satisfied. Notwithstanding anything contained in this paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least 5 years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the Mortgage Loan that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee will be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party pursuant to this paragraph will be covered by, and will be reimbursable by the Interested Person; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan if it becomes a Defaulted Mortgage Loan without the written consent of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (provided that such consent is not required if such Non- Controlling Note Holder is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to each Non-Controlling Note Holder: (a) at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale, (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File reasonably requested by any such Non-Controlling Note Holder that are material to the price of the Mortgage Loan and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by any Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided, that any Non-Controlling Note Holder may waive, as to itself, any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this sentence. Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each of the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative, each Non-Controlling Note Holder and each Non- Controlling Note Holder Representative shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Mortgage Loan unless such Person is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an agent or Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

-28-

Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of the related Non-Lead Securitization Note. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver the related original Non-Lead Securitization Note, endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to sell any Non-Lead Securitization Note, and the obligations of any other Note Holder to execute and deliver instruments or deliver the related Note upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Securitization Note is repurchased by the holder of such Lead Securitization Note that sold such Lead Securitization Note into such Securitization from the trust fund established under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization. The preceding sentence shall not be construed to grant to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the benefit of any representation or warranty made by the holder of the Lead Securitization Note that sold such Lead Securitization Note into the Lead Securitization or any document delivery obligation imposed on such Person under any mortgage loan purchase and sale agreement, instrument of transfer or other document or instrument that may be executed or delivered by such Person in connection with the Lead Securitization.

(b)               The administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and, following the Securitization Date, together with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. After the Securitization Date, the servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (or to the extent otherwise provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), by the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, taking into account the interests of both Note Holders as a collective whole. The Note Holders agree to be bound by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Note Holder described hereunder may be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Trustee on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder. The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not be amended in any manner that may materially and adversely affect any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder without the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s prior written consent. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (unless it is the same Person as or an Affiliate of the

-29-

Mortgage Loan Borrower) shall be a third- party beneficiary to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to its rights as specifically provided for therein.

(c)               The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have, with respect to the Mortgage Loan, all of the same rights and powers of the Controlling Class Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the other mortgage loans included in the Lead Securitization, without limitation, the right to consent and/or consult regarding Major Decisions and other servicing matters, the right to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all Specially Serviced Loans and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to non-Specially Serviced Loans as to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, and the right to direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Class Representative may deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made therein, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(d)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be required (i) to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, to each Non- Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), within the same time frame it is required to provide such notice, information or report to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) to consult with each Non- Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) on a strictly non- binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such Non- Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative); provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non- Controlling Note Holder Representative) by the Lead Securitization Note Holder of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report that would be required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative as set forth above, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall no longer be obligated to consult with such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), whether or not such Non- Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the consultation rights of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-

-30-

Controlling Note Holder Representative) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders. In no event shall the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by any Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative).

In addition to the consultation rights provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to attend annual meetings (which may be held telephonically or in person, at the discretion of the Servicer) with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf), upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.

(e)               If any Note is included as an asset of a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a “REMIC”), within the meaning of Section 860D(a) of the Code, then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interest of the pro rata share of each Note Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Note Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC which includes the Notes (or any portion thereof). Each Note Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected by compliance with any REMIC provisions in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan.

All costs and expenses of compliance with this Section 5(e), to the extent that such costs and expenses relate to administration of a REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense, shall be borne by each Note Holder solely with respect to the REMIC trust that includes its own Note. Anything herein or in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that one of the Notes is included in a REMIC and the other is not, such other Note Holder shall not be required to reimburse such Note Holder or any other Person for payment of (i) any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting

-31-

from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to the other Note Holder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

Section 6.                Appointment of Controlling Note Holder Representative and Non- Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(a)               The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Controlling Note Holder Representative”). The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Note Holder Representative. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower, its principal or any Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower), including, without limitation, the Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Note Holder, any affiliate of the Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party. No such Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Note Holder. Any Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until the Controlling Note Holder has notified the Servicer or Trustee of such appointment and, if the Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative provides any Servicer or Trustee with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment, an address and facsimile number for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and facsimile numbers). The Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to any Servicer. None of the Servicers, Operating Advisor and Trustee shall be required to recognize any person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until they receive such information from the Controlling Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder agrees to inform each such Servicer or Trustee of the then-current Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(b)               Neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will have any liability to the other Note Holders or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder (whether acting in place of the Controlling Note Holder Representative when no Controlling Note Holder Representative shall have been appointed hereunder or otherwise exercising any right, power or privilege granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over the other Note Holder, and that the Controlling Note Holder Representative may have special relationships and interests that

-32-

conflict with the interests of a Note Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Controlling Note Holder Representative or the Controlling Note Holder, as the case may be, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Controlling Note Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

(c)               Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (such representative, with respect to each Non-Controlling Note Holder, its “Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative”). All of the provisions relating to the Controlling Note Holder and the Controlling Note Holder Representative set forth in Section 6(a) (except those contained in the last sentence thereof) and Section 6(b) shall apply to each Non- Controlling Note Holder and its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative mutatis mutandis. The Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative with respect to each Non-Controlling Note as of the date of this Agreement and until the Lead Securitization Note Holder (and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) is notified otherwise, shall be the Initial Note Holder of such Note, provided that at any time any Non-Controlling Note is included in a Securitization, references to the “Non-Controlling Note Holder” herein shall mean the related Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative or any other party assigned the rights to exercise the rights of the related “Non-Controlling Note Holder” hereunder, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and as to the identity of which the Lead Securitization Note Holder (and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) has been given written notice.

-33-

Section 7.                Appointment of Special Servicer. The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have the right at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer in lieu thereof. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to the other Note Holders, the Master Servicer, the then existing Special Servicer and other parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, a Rating Agency Confirmation, if required by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), if any; provided, that in the event the replacement Special Servicer does not have the Required Special Servicer Rating from any Rating Agency rating a Non-Lead Securitization, a Rating Agency Confirmation will be required to be obtained with respect to such Rating Agency and delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the other parties hereto of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid. If a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer has occurred that affects any Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced) solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced). The Controlling Note Holder and each Non-Controlling Note Holder acknowledge and agree that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at a Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non- Controlling Note Holder. The related Non-Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account or Loan Combination Custodial Account.

Section 8.                Payment Procedure.

-34-

(a)               The Lead Securitization Note Holder, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Loan Combination Custodial Account pursuant to and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deposit such amounts to the applicable account within two (2) Business Days (or within such time period as required under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) after receipt of properly identified funds by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

(b)               If the Lead Securitization Note Holder determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of any Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to the Lead Securitization Note Holder, any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders and the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders shall promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Note Holder repay to the Lead Securitization Note Holder any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have theretofore distributed to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have been required to pay to any Mortgage Loan Borrower, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or such other Person with respect thereto.

(c)               If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Note Holder makes any payment to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder before the Lead Securitization Note Holder has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Note Holder does not receive the corresponding payment within five (5) Business Days of its payment to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(d)               Each Note Holder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it shall promptly remit such excess to the applicable Note Holder, subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such Non- Lead Securitization Note Holder under the Mortgage Loan. Such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

-35-

Section 9.                Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders. Each Initial Note Holder shall have no liability to the other Note Holders with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Initial Note Holder.

The Note Holders acknowledge that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Note Holder may have under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) shall have no liability whatsoever to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders in connection with the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Note Holder to exercise such rights, so long as the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) complies with the terms of this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the Servicing Standard).

-36-

Section 10.            Bankruptcy. Subject to Section 5(d), each Note Holder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Servicer has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder further agrees that only the Servicer, and not the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders or any of their representatives, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. The Note Holders hereby appoint the Servicer as their agent, and grant to the Servicer an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Note Holders hereby agree that, upon the request of the Servicer, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Servicer may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by the Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 11.            Representations of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement is within its corporate powers, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and does not contravene such Note Holder’s charter or any law or contractual restriction binding upon such Note Holder, and that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Note Holder enforceable against such Note Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, in good standing and in possession of all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Note Holder, (b) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Note Holder have been obtained or made and (c) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, there is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against such Note Holder, an adverse outcome of which would materially and adversely affect its performance under this Agreement.

-37-

Section 12.           No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between the Note Holders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to offer to the other Note Holders the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates and if any Note Holder chooses to offer to the other Note Holders the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future mortgage loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Note Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from the other Note Holders a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates.

Section 13.            Other Business Activities of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder acknowledges that the other Note Holders or their Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, any entity that is a holder of debt secured by direct or indirect ownership interests in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any entity that is a holder of a preferred equity interest in the Mortgage Loan Borrower (each, a “Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party”), and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Parties and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 14.            Sale of the Notes.

(a)               Each Note Holder agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its respective Note (a “Transfer”) except to a Qualified Institutional Lender. Promptly after the Transfer, each non-transferring Note Holder shall be provided with (x) a representation from a transferee or the applicable Note Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender (except in the case of a Transfer in accordance with the immediately following sentence) and (y) a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 15 (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement). If a Note Holder intends to Transfer its respective Note, or any portion thereof, to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, it must first obtain the consent of each non-transferring Note Holder and, if such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, a confirmation in writing from each Rating Agency that such Transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without each non-transferring Note Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, without a confirmation in writing from each Rating Agency that such Transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization, no Note Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note (or a participation interest in such Note) to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or a Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. The transferring Note Holder agrees that it shall pay the expenses of each non-transferring Note Holder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer

-38-

and the Trustee) and all expenses relating to the confirmation from the Rating Agencies in connection with any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Note Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of the other Note Holder, the Rating Agencies or any other Person, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in a Note. None of the provisions of this Section 14(a) shall apply in the case of (1) a sale of the Lead Securitization Note, together with all of the Non-Lead Securitization Notes, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or (2) a transfer by the Special Servicer, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, of the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, to a single member limited liability or limited partnership, 100% of the equity interest in which is owned directly or indirectly, through one or more single member limited liability companies or limited partnerships, by the Lead Securitization Trust.

For the purposes of this Agreement, if any Rating Agency shall, in writing, waive, decline or refuse to review or otherwise engage any request for a confirmation hereunder from such Rating Agency that a proposed action will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization, such waiver, declination, or refusal shall be deemed to eliminate, for such request only, the condition that such confirmation by such Rating Agency (only) be obtained for purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of clarity, any such waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any request for such confirmation hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any subsequent request for such Rating Agency confirmation hereunder and the condition for such Rating Agency confirmation pursuant to this Agreement for any subsequent request shall apply regardless of any previous waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in such prior request.

(b)               In the case of any Transfer of a participation interest in any of the Notes, the respective Note Holders’ obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Note Holders shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and the Lead Securitization Note Holder and any Persons acting on its behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Note Holder in connection with such Note Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Note Holder had not sold such participation interest.

(c)               Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Note Holder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof) which has extended a credit facility to such Note Holder and that is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency (a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 14(c), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Note Holder or any person which Controls such Note that is secured by its Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Note Holder to each other Note Holder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), each such other Note Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give such Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the

-39-

pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Note Holder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) days to cure a default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations to such other Note Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Note Holder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Note Holder; (v) that such other Note Holder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Note Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to such other Note Holder and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Note Holder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Note Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Note Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Note Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Note Holder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Note Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Note Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases each other Note Holder and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Note Holder on account of such other Note Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or such other Note Holder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Note Holder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Note Holders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof which is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Note Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Note Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 14(c) shall remain effective as to any Note Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Note Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(d)               Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Note Holder then such Note Holder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                            The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Note Holder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note requires a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

-40-

(ii)                         The Conduit Credit Enhancer is a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)                     Such Note Holder pledges its interest in its Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

(iv)                     The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit agree that, if such Note Holder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Note Holder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Note Holder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v)                        Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Note Holder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 15.            Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder. The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 15, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of the other Note Holder. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such person as its agent under this Section 15 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding any Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 14, from and after the date of such assignment. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 14 and this Section 15. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and the other Note Holder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(d)               AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 18.            Modifications. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Note Holder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Note Holders shall not amend or modify this Agreement without first receiving a written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment or modification will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of its then current ratings of the securities issued in connection with a Securitization; provided that no such confirmation from the Rating Agencies shall be required in connection with a modification (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (ii) to make other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 19.           Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries.

Section 24.            Withholding Taxes. (a) If the Lead Securitization Note Holder or the Mortgage Loan Borrower shall be required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder constituting a Non-Exempt Person, the Lead Securitization Note Holder, in its capacity as servicer, shall be entitled to do so with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to such Note Holder), provided that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall furnish such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting such Note Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which such Note Holder is subject to tax.

(b)               Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall and hereby agrees to indemnify the Lead Securitization Note Holder against and hold the Lead Securitization Note Holder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payment made to such Note Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by such Note Holder to the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payments made to such Note Holder, it being expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) such Note Holder, upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder and at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(c)               Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) represents (for the benefit of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that neither the Lead Securitization Note Holder nor the Mortgage Loan Borrower is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time as necessary during the term of this Agreement, each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder or Servicer, as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Note Holder substantiating that such Note Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is not obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement.

(c)               The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any Note Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(d)               The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(e)               The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15;

(f)                The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder; and

Section 30.             Reserved.

Section 31.            Resignation of Agent. The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. The Initial Agent may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously

-47-

with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of the Initial Agent or any successor thereto prior to such Securitization without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of such Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement, and any successor master servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place thereof without any further notice or other action.

Section 32.            Resizing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for so long as an Initial Note Holder or an affiliate thereof (an “Initial Owner Entity”) is the owner of a Non-Lead Securitization Note (the “Owned Note”), such Initial Owner Entity shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated notes or additional notes (in either case, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of such Owned Note to such New Notes or severing such Owned Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of such Owned Note provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the aggregate principal of such Owned Note prior to such amendments, (ii) all Notes continue to have the same weighted average interest rate as the Notes prior to such amendments, (iii) all Notes pay pro rata and on a pari passu basis (including after a default and in connection with a condemnation or prepayment) and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement, and (iv) the Initial Owner Entity holding the New Notes shall notify the Lead Securitization Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing of such modified allocations and principal amounts. Except for the foregoing reallocation or severance and for modifications pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as discussed in Section 5), no Note may be modified or amended without the consent of its holder and the consent of the holder of the other Note. In connection with the foregoing (provided the conditions set forth in (i) through (iv) above are satisfied, as certified by the applicable Initial Owner Entity, on which certification the Master Servicer can rely), the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and directed to execute amendments to the Mortgage Loan Documents and this Agreement on behalf of any or all of the Note Holders, as applicable, solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal (which may include the amendment or addition of applicable defined terms to reflect the New Notes) or such severing of such Owned Note. If an Owned Note is severed into “component” notes, such component notes shall each have the same rights as the related Owned Note. For the avoidance of doubt, Rating Agency Confirmation shall not be required for any amendments to this Agreement required to facilitate the terms of this Section 32.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Accepted Servicing Practices” shall mean the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan (a) in the same manner in which the Initial Servicer, and with the same care, skill, prudence and diligence with which the Initial Servicer generally services and administers similar mortgage loans with similar mortgagors (i) for other third parties, giving due consideration to customary and usual standards of practice of prudent institutional commercial lenders servicing their own loans or (ii) held in its own portfolio, whichever standard is higher, (b) with a view to maximization of the recovery on the Mortgage Loan on a net present value basis and the best interests of the Initial Note Holders as a collective whole, and (c) without regard to: (i) any known relationship that the Initial Servicer (or any affiliate thereof) may have with the Mortgage Loan Borrower, the related sponsors or with any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents; (ii) the ownership of any certificate or any interest in the Mortgage Loan by the Initial Servicer (or any affiliate thereof); (iii) the right of the Initial Servicer (or any affiliate thereof) to receive reimbursement of costs, or the sufficiency of any compensation payable to it under the servicing agreement or with respect to any particular transaction; or (iv) any ownership, servicing and/or management by the Initial Servicer (or any affiliate thereof) of any other mortgage loans or real property. The servicing fee payable to the Initial Servicer shall be as agreed to by all of the Initial Note Holders and paid out of collection on the Mortgage Loan by each Initial Note Holder on a pro rata basis in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Each Note Holder acknowledges and agrees that, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced from and after the Securitization Date pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Note Holder acknowledges that the other Note Holders may elect, in their sole discretion, to include their Notes in a Securitization and agrees that it will, subject to Section 26, reasonably cooperate with such other Note Holder, at such other Note Holder’s expense, to effect such Securitization. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Note Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the appointment of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Depositor as each such party may be replaced pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Note Holder hereby irrevocably appoints the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee in the Lead Securitization as such Note Holder’s attorney-in-fact to sign any documents reasonably required with respect to the administration and servicing of the Mortgage Loan on its behalf under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (subject at all times to the rights of such Note Holder set forth herein and in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement). In no event shall the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement require the Servicer to enforce the rights of any Note Holder against any other Note Holder or limit the Servicer in enforcing the rights of one Note Holder against any other Note Holder; however, this statement shall not be construed to otherwise limit the rights of one Note Holder with respect to any other Note Holder. Each Servicer (i) shall be required pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to service the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard (which shall require, among other things, that each Servicer, in servicing the Mortgage Loan, must take into account the interests of each Note

18

Holder), the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and applicable law, (ii) shall provide information to each Non-Lead Servicer to enable each such Non-Lead Servicer to perform its servicing duties under the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (iii) shall not take any action or refrain from taking any action or follow any direction inconsistent with the foregoing.

(b)               At any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Note Holders agree to cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced by one or more servicers, each of which has been agreed upon by the Note Holders, pursuant to a servicing agreement that has servicing terms substantially similar to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, all applicable provisions relating to delivery of information and reports necessary for any Non-Lead Securitization to comply with any applicable reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) and all references herein to the “Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement” shall mean such subsequent servicing agreement; provided, however, that (1) if (x) the servicer(s) to be appointed under such replacement servicing agreement would not otherwise meet the conditions to be a servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement that is being replaced or (y) a Non-Lead Securitization Note is in a Securitization, then a Rating Agency Confirmation shall have been obtained from each Rating Agency for each Securitization then outstanding with respect to which certificates thereof are then rated by such Rating Agency; provided, further, however, that until a replacement servicing agreement has been entered into, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement as if such agreement was still in full force and effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan, by the Servicer in the Lead Securitization or by any Person appointed by the Lead Securitization Note Holder, which with respect to the master servicer shall be a qualified servicer meeting the requirements of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and with respect to the special servicer shall be an Approved Servicer.

The Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that, if any Lead Securitization Note is included in a Securitization, the related Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the applicable Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to contain a provision that requires any Lead Certificate Administrator to deliver to each Non-Lead Trustee, each Non-Lead Certificate

Administrator, each Non-Lead Special Servicer, each Non-Lead Master Servicer, each Non-Lead Operating Advisor and each Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer, as applicable, promptly following the Securitization of any Lead Securitization Note, notice of the deposit of Lead Securitization Note into a Securitization Trust (which notice shall also provide contact information for the related Trustee, the related Certificate Administrator, the related Master Servicer, the related Special Servicer, the related Operating Advisor, the related Asset Representations Reviewer, accompanied by a copy of the executed Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement).

(c)               The Master Servicer shall be the master servicer on the Mortgage Loan, and from time to time it (or the Trustee, to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) (i) shall be required to make Servicing Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan, subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and (ii) may be required to make P&I Advances on the Lead Securitization Note, if and to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be obligated to advance monthly payments of principal or interest in

19

respect of any Note other than the Lead Securitization Note if such principal or interest is not paid by the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

(d)               The Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders agree to indemnify (i) (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of the following parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the Depositor (and any director, officer, employee or agent of any of the foregoing, to the extent such parties are identified as indemnified parties in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in respect of other mortgage loans) and (ii) the Lead Securitization Trust (such parties in clause (i) and the Lead Securitization Trust, collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property (or, with respect to the Operating Advisor, incurred in connection with the provision of services for the Mortgage Loan) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Items”) to the extent of their pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account that are allocated to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for its pro rata share of the insufficiency (including, if the applicable Non-Lead Securitization Note has been included in a Non-Lead Securitization, from general collections or any other amounts from such Non-Lead Securitization Trust).

(e)               Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees to pay its Pro Rata Share of (i) any Servicing Advances and any interest accrued and payable on such Servicing Advances at the Advance Rate and (ii) any Trust Fund Expenses and any other fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan (including, without, limitation, any costs, fees and expenses related to obtaining any Rating Agency Confirmation and any Indemnified Items) in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement to the extent that such amounts remain unpaid or unreimbursed after funds received from the Mortgage Loan Borrower for payment of such amounts and any principal and interest collections allocable to the Notes have been applied to pay such amounts.

In the event that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has determined that expected proceeds of the Mortgage Loan (or foreclosed property) would be insufficient for reimbursement of (i) any Servicing Advances and any interest accrued and payable on such Servicing Advances at the Advance Rate, (ii) the Indemnified Items and (iii) any other Trust Fund Expenses and any other fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan (including, without, limitation, any costs, fees and expenses related to obtaining any Rating Agency Confirmation), each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, pay the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Operating Advisor, or the Lead Securitization Trust, as applicable, the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the insufficiency and if such Non-Lead

20

Securitization Note Holder is a Non-Lead Securitization Trust, then such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to use general collections on the other mortgage loans in the related Non-Lead Securitization Trust to pay such Pro Rata Share.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to reimburse any P&I Advances or any Nonrecoverable Advances that are P&I Advances on the Lead Securitization Note or any interest accrued and payable on such P&I Advances and Nonrecoverable Advances that are P&I Advances.

(f)                The Non-Lead Master Servicer may be required to make P&I Advances on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note, from time to time, subject to the terms of the related servicing agreement for the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer and Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Additionally, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, and the related Non-Lead Master Servicer or the related Non-Lead Trustee shall be required to notify the other of the amount of its P&I Advance within two (2) Business Days of making such advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable (with respect to the Lead Securitization Note) or a Non-Lead Master Servicer, a Non-Lead Special Servicer or a Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable (with respect to a Non-Lead Securitization Note), determines that a proposed P&I Advance, if made, would be non-recoverable or an outstanding P&I Advance is or would be non-recoverable, or if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, subsequently determines that a proposed Servicing Advance would be non-recoverable or an outstanding Servicing Advance is or would be non-recoverable, then, if and to the extent such information is not already included in the Distribution Date Statement for the month in which such P&I Advance is made, the Master Servicer or the Trustee (as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee) or the related Non-Lead Master Servicer or the related Non-Lead Trustee (as provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the related Non-Lead Master Servicer, the related Non-Lead Special Servicer or the related Non-Lead Trustee) shall notify the Master Servicer and the Trustee, or the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Trustee, as the case may be, of the other Securitization within two (2) Business Days of making such determination.

(g)               Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that, if the related Non-Lead Securitization Note is included in a Securitization, it shall cause the applicable Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to contain provisions to the effect that:

(i)                                  any Servicing Advances (and advance interest thereon) and any Trust Fund Expenses (including Indemnified Items and compensation due to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the extent related to the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property) relating to servicing and administration

21

of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property, including without limitation, any unpaid Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees and Workout Fees relating to the Mortgage Loan will be paid in accordance with Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement;

(ii)                               in the event that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer has determined that proceeds of the Mortgage Loan (or foreclosed property) would be insufficient for reimbursement of the amounts described in clause (i) above, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pay the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee or the Lead Securitization Trust, as applicable, such Non-Lead Securitization Trust’s Pro Rata Share of the insufficiency out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement;

(iii)                            any matter affecting the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan that requires delivery of a Rating Agency Confirmation pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall also require delivery of a Rating Agency Confirmation under each Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; and

(iv)                           the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Lead Securitization Trust shall be third party beneficiaries of the foregoing provisions.

(h)               In the event that any filing is required to be made by the Depositor or any Non-Lead Depositor in order to comply with the Depositor’s or such Non-Lead Depositor’s requirements under the Exchange Act, the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including the related Non-Lead Depositor and related Non-Lead Trustee) or the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee), as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to timely comply with any such filing, in each case, in accordance with the requirements of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement respectively.

(i)                 Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall give each of the parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (that will not also be a party to the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) notice of the Non-Lead Securitization in writing (which may be by e-mail) prior to or promptly following the related Non-Lead Securitization Date. Such notice shall contain contact information for each of the parties to the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. In addition, after the related Non-Lead Securitization Date, the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or a certificate administrator designated to do so in the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) shall send an electronic copy of the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to each of the parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(j)                 If a Non-Lead Securitization Note becomes the subject of an Asset Review pursuant to the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall reasonably cooperate with

22

such Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer in connection with such Asset Review by providing such Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer with any documents reasonably requested by such Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer, but only to the extent that such documents are in the possession of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator as the case may be, and are not in the possession of the Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer, Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or custodian under the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(k)               The Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that it shall cause the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to provide as follows (and to the extent the following provisions are not included in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, they shall be deemed incorporated therein and made a part thereof):

(i)                                  the Master Servicer or Trustee shall be required to provide written notice to each Non-Lead Master Servicer and each Non-Lead Trustee of any P&I Advance it has made with respect to the Lead Securitization Note within two (2) Business Days of making such advance;

(ii)                               if the Master Servicer determines that a proposed P&I Advance with respect to the Lead Securitization Note or Servicing Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance or Servicing Advances previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Master Servicer shall provide each Non-Lead Master Servicer written notice of such determination within two (2) Business Days after such determination was made;

(iii)                            the Master Servicer shall deliver or make available all reports required to be delivered by the Master Servicer to the Certificate Administrator under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, including the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package, to the extent related to the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property or the Non-Lead Securitization Notes (i) prior to the securitization of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, to the related Note Holder on each Distribution Date (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement); and (ii) following securitization of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer no later than two (2) Business Days after the Determination Date (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement);

(iv)                           the servicing duties of each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall include the duty to service the Mortgage Loan and all of the Notes on behalf of the Note Holders (including the respective trustees and certificateholders) in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and the Servicing Standard;

As used in this Agreement, “Regulation AB” means Subpart 229.1100 – Asset Backed Securities (Regulation AB), 17 C.F.R. §§ 229.1100-229.1125, as such may be amended from time to time, and subject to such clarification and interpretation as have been provided by the United States SEC or by the staff of the SEC, or as may be provided by the SEC or its staff from time to time, in each case as effective from time to time as of the compliance dates specified therein.

25

Master Servicer within one (1) Business Day of receipt and identification thereof unless such amount would otherwise be included in the monthly remittance to the applicable Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder for such month; provided, however, that to the extent any such amounts are received after 3:00 p.m. Eastern time on any given Business Day, the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remit such late collections to such Non-Lead Master Servicer within one (1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified funds but, in any event, the Master Servicer shall remit such amounts within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds;

Securities Act and Form SF-3, and for rating agency downgrades or other triggers with respect to any certificates issued in connection with a Non-Lead Securitization, subject to customary grace periods (provided that, in the case of failures related to the securities laws, such grace periods will not cause a Non-Lead Depositor to fail to comply with the applicable provisions of such securities laws). Upon the occurrence of such a Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Master Servicer affecting any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and the Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be required, upon the direction of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, to appoint a subservicer with respect to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note. Upon the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Special Servicer affecting any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall, upon direction of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, terminate the Special Servicer with respect to, but only with respect to, the Mortgage Loan;

(xvi)                      in connection with (A) any amendment of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, a party to such Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement is required to provide a copy of the executed amendment to each Non-Lead Depositor and one or more parties to the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (which may be by e-mail), together with a copy of such amendment in electronic format, no later than the effective date of such amendment, and (B) the termination, resignation and/or replacement of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the replacement “master servicer” or replacement “special servicer”, as applicable, is required to provide to each Non-Lead Depositor and one or more parties to the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement all disclosure about itself that is required to be included in Form 8-K no later than the date of effectiveness thereof;

(xvii)                   if a Non-Lead Securitization Note becomes the subject of an “Asset Review” (or such similar term, as defined in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), the applicable parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement are required to reasonably cooperate with the Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer or other applicable party to the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in connection with such Asset Review (or a substantially similar provision), including with respect to providing access to related underlying documents;

(xviii)                special servicing, workout and liquidation fees rates shall not exceed 0.25%, 1.00% and 1.00%, respectively, subject to any market minimum amounts and fee offsets set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; and

(xix)                        any conflict between the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement shall be resolved in favor of this Agreement.

(l)                 Prior to Securitization of any Non-Lead Securitization Note (including any New Notes), all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master

27

Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) only need to be delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder Representative) and, when so delivered to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder Representative), the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Following Securitization of any Non-Lead Securitization Note, all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be delivered to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Special Servicer (who then may forward such items to the party entitled to receive such items as and to the extent provided in the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and, when so delivered to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Special Servicer, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (except where required by this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to deliver items directly to a Non-Lead Depositor or other party to a Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for purposes of compliance with securities laws).

Section 3.                Priority of Payments. Each Note shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Note shall have priority or preference over any portion of any other Note or security therefor. All amounts tendered by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or otherwise available for payment on or with respect to or in connection with the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property or amounts realized as proceeds thereof, whether received in the form of Monthly Payments, the Balloon Payment, Liquidation Proceeds, proceeds under any guaranty, letter of credit or other collateral or instrument securing the Mortgage Loan, or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds (other than proceeds, awards or settlements to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgage Loan Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents), but excluding (x) all amounts for required reserves or escrows required by the Mortgage Loan Documents (to the extent, in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents) to be held as reserves or escrows or received as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of property protection expenses or Servicing Advances then due and payable or reimbursable to the Trustee or any Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (y) Penalty Charges and all amounts that are then due, payable or reimbursable (except for (i) any reimbursements of P&I Advances (and interest thereon) made with respect to a Note, which may only be reimbursed out of payments and collections allocable to such Note, (ii) any Servicing Fees due to the Master Servicer in excess of any Non-Lead Securitization Note’s pro rata share of that portion of such Servicing Fees calculated at the Servicing Fee Rate applicable to the Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) to any Servicer (or the Trustee as successor to the Servicer), with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including without limitation, any additional trust fund expenses relating to the Mortgage Loan (but subject to second paragraph of Section 5(d) hereof) and any Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees, Workout Fees, Penalty Charges (to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph), amounts paid by the Mortgage Loan Borrower in respect of modification fees or assumption fees and any other additional compensation payable

28

pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), shall be applied by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its designee) to the Notes on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis.

For clarification purposes, Penalty Charges (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) paid shall be allocated to the Notes on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis and applied first, to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to reimburse, on a pro rata basis, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer, as applicable, for any Servicing Advances made by any such party in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and to pay any interest to such parties that has accrued on any such Servicing Advances at the Reimbursement Rate, second, to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the respective amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, Trustee, any Non-Lead Master Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, for any interest accrued on any P&I Advance made with respect to such Note by such party (if and as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or any Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable), third, to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay additional trust fund expenses (including, if not paid by the related Mortgagor, Special Servicing Fees, unpaid Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan (as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and finally, (i) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to the Lead Securitization Note, be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note, be paid, (x) prior to the securitization of such Note, to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and (y) following the securitization of such Note, to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent required under the REMIC Provisions of the Code, payments or proceeds received with respect to any partial release of the Mortgaged Property (including following a condemnation) from the lien of the applicable Mortgage and Mortgage Loan Documents must be allocated to reduce the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the manner permitted by such REMIC Provisions if, immediately following such release, the loan-to value ratio of the Mortgage Loan exceeds 125% (based solely on real property and excluding any personal property and going concern value).

Any Note Holder that receives proceeds from the sale of the primary servicing rights with respect to the Mortgage Loan shall remit to the other Note Holders, promptly upon receipt thereof, such amounts as are required such that each Note Holder receives its pro rata share of such proceeds on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis. Any proceeds received by any Note Holder from the sale of master servicing rights with respect to its Note shall be for its own account.

Section 4.                Workout. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Securitization Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note are waived,

29

reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter payments to the Note Holders pursuant to Section 3, which shall be made as though such workout did not occur, with the payment terms of each Note remaining the same as they are on the date hereof, and the full economic effect of all waivers, reductions or deferrals of amounts due on the Mortgage Loan attributable to such workout shall be borne by the Note Holders, on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis (up to their respective Note Principal Balances, together with accrued interest thereon at the Interest Rate and any other amounts due to each Note Holder, as applicable).

Section 5.                Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)               Subject to this Agreement (including but not limited to Section 5(b)) and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy, and no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever except as explicitly set forth herein with respect to the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that it shall have no right to, and hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) the rights, if any, that such Note Holder has to, (i) call or cause the Lead Securitization Note Holder to call an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Securitization Note Holder to file any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Note Holder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or its obligation to follow the Servicing Standard (in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or any liability for failure to do so). Upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) to sell the Non-Lead Securitization Notes together with the Lead Securitization Note as notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. In connection with any such sale, the Special Servicer shall be required to sell each Non-Lead Securitization Note together with the Lead Securitization Note in the manner set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. In connection with any such sale, the

30

Special Servicer shall be required to sell any Non-Lead Securitization Note together with the Lead Securitization Note in the manner set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan shall be determined by the Trustee or Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan if it becomes a Defaulted Loan without the written consent of the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders (provided that such consent is not required if any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders: (a) at least fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale, (c) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File reasonably requested by any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder that are material to the sale price of the Mortgage Loan and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to the other offerors and the Directing Holder) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by any Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided that such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this sentence. Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each of the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Non-Controlling Note Holders and the applicable Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative shall be permitted to bid at any sale of the Mortgage Loan unless such person is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an agent or Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) will not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan if the Mortgage Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan without the written consent of each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (provided that such consent is not required from any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder that is a Borrower Affiliate) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder: (a) at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the servicing file reasonably requested by such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder that are material to the price of the Mortgage Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided that such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements described in this sentence. Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its representative) that is not a Borrower Affiliate shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Mortgage Loan.

31

Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of the Non-Lead Securitization Notes. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of Lead Securitization Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver the related original Non-Lead Securitization Note, endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to sell the Non-Lead Securitization Notes, and the obligations of the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders to execute and deliver instruments or deliver the Non-Lead Securitization Note upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Securitization is terminated in accordance with its terms.

(b)               If any Note is included as an asset of a real estate mortgage investment conduit within the meaning of Section 860D(a) of the Code (a “REMIC”), then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interest of each Note Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Note Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC which includes the Notes (or any portion thereof). Each Note Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected by compliance with any REMIC provisions in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan.

Anything herein or in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if one of the Notes is included in a REMIC, but others are not, other Note Holders whose Notes are not included in a REMIC shall not be required to reimburse such Note Holder or any other Person for payment of (i) any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to the other Note Holders be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

32

Section 6.                Appointment of Controlling Note Holder Representative and Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(a)           The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Controlling Note Holder Representative”). The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Note Holder Representative in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. When exercising its various rights under this Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Borrower Affiliate), including, without limitation, the Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Note Holder, any affiliate of the Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party. No such Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Note Holder. No Servicer, Operating Advisor, Asset Representations Reviewer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until the Controlling Note Holder has notified each Servicer, Operating Advisor, Asset Representations Reviewer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator of such appointment and, if the Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative provides each Servicer, Operating Advisor, Asset Representations Reviewer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment (and such parties will be entitled to rely on such notice), an address and facsimile number for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such Person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and facsimile numbers). The Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to each Servicer, Operating Advisor, Asset Representations Reviewer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator.

(b)           Neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will have any liability to the other Note Holders or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder (whether acting in place of the Controlling Note Holder Representative when no Controlling Note Holder Representative shall have been appointed hereunder or otherwise exercising any right, power or privilege granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over the other Note Holder, and that the Controlling Note Holder Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of a Note Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Controlling Note Holder Representative or the Controlling Note Holder, as the case may be, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder

33

Representative, the Controlling Note Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

(c)           The Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to exercise the rights and powers granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder and the rights and powers granted to the “controlling class representative” or similar party under, and as defined in, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loan. In addition, the Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all Major Decisions related to a “Specially Serviced Loan” (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, and, except as set forth below (i) the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to implement any Major Decision unless it has obtained the prior consent of the Special Servicer and (ii) prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to consent to the Master Servicer’s implementing any Major Decision nor will the Special Servicer itself be permitted to implement any Major Decision as to which the Controlling Note Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the written analysis and such additional information requested by the Controlling Note Holder and reasonably available to the Special Servicer as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Controlling Note Holder in order to make a judgment with respect to such Major Decision. The Controlling Note Holder may also direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Note Holder may deem advisable.

If the Controlling Note Holder fails to notify the Special Servicer of its approval or disapproval of any proposed Major Decision within ten (10) Business Days after delivery to the Controlling Note Holder by the applicable Servicer of written notice of a proposed Major Decision, together with any information requested by the Controlling Note Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Controlling Note Holder in order to make a judgment, then upon the expiration of such ten (10) Business Days such Major Decision shall be deemed to have been approved by the Controlling Note Holder.

In the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Servicer is otherwise authorized by the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any other matter requiring consent of the Controlling Note Holder, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Event pursuant to the Lead Securitization Agreement (or consultation with the Controlling Note Holder after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Event, but prior to the occurrence of a Consultation Termination Event (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement)), is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders (as a collective whole) and the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Controlling Note

34

Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Controlling Note Holder’s response.

No objection contemplated by the preceding paragraphs may require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of the Mortgage Loan Documents, applicable law, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, this Agreement, the REMIC provisions of the Code or the Master Servicer or Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard or materially expand the scope of responsibilities of any of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable.

The Controlling Note Holder shall have no liability to the other Note Holders or any other party for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over the other Note Holders, and that the Controlling Note Holder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of another Note Holder and, absent willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Controlling Note Holder, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder or any of its officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that the Controlling Note Holder shall not be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misconduct or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

(d)               Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative (other than a Borrower Affiliate) in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (with respect to such Non-Controlling Note Holder, the “Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative”). Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, each Non-Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person (other than a Borrower Affiliate), including, without limitation, the related Non-Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the related Non-Controlling Note Holder, any affiliate of the related Non-Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party. No such Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than such Non-Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by each Non-Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by a Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of such Non-Controlling Note Holder.

(e)               No Servicer, Trustee, Asset Representations Reviewer, Operating Advisor or Certificate Administrator acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to recognize any Person as a Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative until the related

35

Non-Controlling Note Holder has notified each Servicer, Trustee, Asset Representations Reviewer, Operating Advisor and Certificate Administrator of such appointment and, if the Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the related Non-Controlling Note Holder, the Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative provides each Servicer, Trustee, Operating Advisor and Certificate Administrator with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment (and such parties will be entitled to rely on such notice), an address and facsimile number for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such Person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and facsimile numbers). The related Non-Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to each Servicer, Operating Advisor, Trustee and Certificate Administrator.

(f)                (1) the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be required to provide to each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder Representative) (i) notice, information and reports with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan (similar to such notice, information and report it is required to deliver to the Directing Holder pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Directing Holder under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event) and (2) the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be required to consult with each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) on a strictly non-binding basis with respect to any such Major Decision or the implementation of any recommended actions in the summary of the Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by the related Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative); provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to a Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) by the Lead Securitization Note Holder of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Non-Controlling Note Holder, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall no longer be obligated to consult with such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), whether or not such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period unless the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto. Notwithstanding the consultation rights of any Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Special Servicer acting on its behalf) may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Special Servicer) determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders. In no event shall the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its

behalf) be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by any Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative).

(g)               In addition to the consultation rights of a Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to attend annual meetings (either telephonically or in person, in the discretion of the Servicer) with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) at the offices of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed; provided that each Non-Controlling Note Holder, at the request of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall execute a confidentiality agreement in form and substance satisfactory to it, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

Section 7.                Appointment of Special Servicer. Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have the right at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer in lieu thereof. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to the other Note Holder, the Servicer, the then existing Special Servicer and other parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and, if such replacement Special Servicer does not have the Required Special Servicer Rating for each Rating Agency then rating a Non-Lead Securitization, delivering a Rating Agency Confirmation from each such Rating Agency. The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the other parties hereto of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7 and promptly deliver all information necessary for any Non-Lead Securitization to comply with any applicable reporting requirements under the Exchange Act. Any such appointment of a replacement Special Servicer will not become effective unless all such information has been delivered to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid.

If a Special Servicer Termination Event has occurred with respect to the Special Servicer that affects a Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced) pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement

37

pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced). The Controlling Note Holder and the Non-Controlling Note Holders acknowledge and agree that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at any Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non-Controlling Note Holder. The applicable Non-Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account.

Section 8.                Payment Procedure.

(a)               The Lead Securitization Note Holder, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall deposit or cause to be deposited all payments and collections on the Mortgage Loan to the Collection Account and the portion of such payments and collections that are distributable to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders shall be deposited into the Companion Distribution Account pursuant to and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall (i) deposit such amounts to the applicable account within two (2) Business Days after receipt of properly identified funds by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower and (ii) remit from the applicable account (A) prior to the Securitization Date, within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds (unless otherwise specified pursuant to an interim servicing agreement) and (B) on or after the Securitization Date, (A) with respect to the Lead Securitization Note, the remittance date under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (B) with respect to each Non-Lead Securitization Note, (x) prior to the Non-Lead Securitization, the remittance date under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for the Lead Securitization Note and (y) on or after the Non-Lead Securitization, the earlier of the remittance date under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and the Business Day immediately succeeding the “determination date” set forth in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for such Non-Lead Securitization Note, provided such “determination date” shall not be earlier than the 1^st day of the month. All payments received and allocable pursuant to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the Non-Lead Securitization Notes (net of amounts payable or reimbursable from such account) shall be paid by wire transfer to accounts maintained by the applicable Note Holder.

(b)               If the Lead Securitization Note Holder determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of any Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to the Lead Securitization Note Holder, a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required

38

to distribute any portion thereof to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders and such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Note Holder repay to the Lead Securitization Note Holder any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have theretofore distributed to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have been required to pay to any Mortgage Loan Borrower, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or such other Person with respect thereto.

(c)               If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Note Holder makes any payment to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder before the Lead Securitization Note Holder has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Note Holder does not receive the corresponding payment within five (5) Business Days of its payment to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(d)               Each Note Holder agrees that if at any time it receives from any source any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it shall promptly remit such excess to the applicable Note Holder(s), subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder under the Mortgage Loan. Such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 9.                Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders. Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement governing limitation on the liabilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor each Note Holder shall have no liability to any other Note Holder with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Note Holder.

The Note Holders acknowledge that, subject to the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Note Holder may have under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) shall have no liability whatsoever to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Note Holder to exercise such rights other than as described above. However, the Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 10.            Bankruptcy. Subject to Section 5(b), each Note Holder hereby agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any

39

such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder further agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder, and not any of the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. The Note Holders hereby appoint the Lead Securitization Note Holder as their agent, and grant to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Note Holders hereby agree that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by the Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 11.            Representations of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement is within its corporate powers, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and does not contravene such Note Holder’s charter or any law or contractual restriction binding upon such Note Holder, and that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Note Holder enforceable against such Note Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, in good standing and in possession of all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that (a) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Note Holder, (b) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Note Holder have been obtained or made and (c) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, there is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against such Note Holder, an adverse outcome of which would materially and adversely affect its performance under this Agreement.

Section 12.            No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the

40

relationship created hereby between the Note Holders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates and if any Note Holder chooses to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future mortgage loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Note Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from any other Note Holder a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates.

Section 13.            Other Business Activities of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder acknowledges that the other Note Holders or their Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, any entity that is a holder of debt secured by direct or indirect ownership interests in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any entity that is a holder of a preferred equity interest in the Mortgage Loan Borrower, and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 14.            Sale of the Notes.

(a)               Each Note Holder agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, participate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber or otherwise dispose (either (i) directly or (ii) indirectly through entering into a derivatives contract or any other similar agreement, excluding a repo financing or a Pledge in accordance with Section 14(d)) of a Note (a “Transfer”) except in connection with a Securitization or to a Qualified Institutional Lender. Promptly after any Transfer, the non-transferring Note Holders shall be provided with (x) a representation from the transferee or the applicable Note Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender (except in the case of a Transfer to a Securitization (and the related pooling and servicing or similar agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement) or in accordance with the immediately following sentence) and (y) except in connection with a Securitization, a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 15. If a Note Holder intends to Transfer its respective Note, or any portion thereof, to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, it must first obtain (x) prior to a Securitization, the consent of each non-transferring Note Holder, in which case such new Note Holder shall be deemed to be a Qualified Institutional Lender pursuant to this Agreement, or (y) after a Securitization of such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note, Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the applicable Rating Agencies for such Securitization Trust (after which, such new Note Holder shall be deemed to be a Qualified Institutional Lender pursuant to this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the non-transferring Note Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, without Rating Agency Confirmation, no Note Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note (or a participation interest in such Note) to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or a Borrower Affiliate and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. The transferring Note Holder agrees that it will pay the expenses of the non-transferring Note Holder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee) and all expenses relating to the confirmation from the Rating Agencies in connection

41

with any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Note Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of any other Note Holder, the Rating Agencies or any other Person, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its Note or any beneficial interest in its Note whether or not the related transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender. None of the provisions of this Section 14(a) shall apply in the case of (1) a sale of all of the Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or (2) a transfer by the Special Servicer, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, of the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan, to a single member limited liability or limited partnership, 100% of the equity interest in which is owned directly or indirectly, through one or more single member limited liability companies or limited partnerships, by the Lead Securitization Trust.

(b)               In the case of any Transfer of a participation interest in any of the Notes, (i) the respective Note Holders’ obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Note Holders shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Lead Securitization Note Holder and any Persons acting on its behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Note Holder in connection with such Note Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Note Holder had not sold such participation interest.

(c)               Any Note Holder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Borrower Affiliate) which has extended a credit facility to such Note Holder or has entered into a repurchase agreement with such Note Holder that, in each case, is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency or to an entity with respect to which Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained pursuant to this Section 14 (each a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 14(c), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Note Holder or any Person which Controls such Note that is secured by its Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder and Rating Agency Confirmation shall not be required, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Note Holder to any other Note Holder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), such other Note Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Note Holder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) days to cure a default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations to any other Note Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Note Holder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Note Holder; (v) that such other Note Holder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Note Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a

42

“Redirection Notice”) to the other Note Holders and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Note Holder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Note Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Note Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Note Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Note Holder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Note Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Note Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases the other Note Holders and each Servicer from any liability to the pledging Note Holder on account of such other Note Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or such other Note Holder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. A Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Note Holder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Note Holders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof that is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Note Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Note Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 14(c) shall remain effective as to any Note Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Note Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(d)               Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Note Holder then such Note Holder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                                  The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Note Holder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note requires a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii)                               The Conduit Credit Enhancer is a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)                            Such Note Holder pledges its interest in its Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

(iv)                           The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit agree that, if such Note Holder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Note Holder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Note Holder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

43

(v)                              Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Note Holder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 15.            Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder. Agents and Noteholders agree that prior to the securitization of the last Note, the Mortgage Loan Borrower is to keep the books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. From and after the date of the securitization of the last Note, the Agent shall (a) keep or cause to be kept the Note Register at the Agent Office, (b) shall serve as the initial note registrar and (c) hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 15, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note Holder is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of the other Note Holders. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such Person as its agent under this Section 15 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

In connection with any Transfer of a Note occurring hereafter (but excluding any Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust or the Transfer is to a transferee in connection with a transfer to a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement or trust and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 14, from and after the date of such assignment. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 14 and this Section 15. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and the other Note Holders against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 16.            Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

(b)               CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)               AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH A PARTY HEREIN SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(d)               AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 18.            Modifications. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Note Holder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Note Holders shall not amend or modify this Agreement without first receiving a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency then rating any securities issued in a Securitization. However, no such confirmation from the Rating Agencies shall be required in connection with a modification (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct an error or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, (ii) to make other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement or (iii) entered into pursuant to Section 31 of this Agreement or (iv) if and to the extent that it would be deemed given or not required pursuant to the definition of Rating Agency Confirmation in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and/or any Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable.

Section 19.            Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors

45

Subject to Section 14 and Section 15, each Note Holder may assign or delegate its rights or obligations under this Agreement. Upon any such assignment, the assignee shall be entitled to all rights and benefits of the applicable Note Holder hereunder.

Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable laws, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 23.            Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

Section 24.            Withholding Taxes. (a) If the Lead Securitization Note Holder or the Mortgage Loan Borrower is required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder constituting a Non-Exempt Person, the Lead Securitization Note Holder, in its capacity as servicer, shall be entitled to do so with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to such Note Holder). The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall furnish such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting such Note Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which such Note Holder is subject to tax.

(b)               Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees to indemnify the Lead Securitization Note Holder against and hold the Lead Securitization Note Holder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payment made to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder to the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payments made to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder. It is expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder and at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(c)               Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder represents to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (for the benefit of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that neither the Lead Securitization Note Holder nor the Mortgage Loan

47

Borrower is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time as necessary during the term of this Agreement, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder or Servicer, as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Note Holder substantiating that such Note Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is not obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, (i) if a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (ii) if a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the Mortgage Loan Borrower is treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, such Note Holder shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments) or Form W-8BEN, or successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by such Note Holder, as evidence of such Note Holder’s exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder with respect to a Non-Lead Securitization Note or otherwise until the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have furnished to the Lead Securitization Note Holder requested forms, certificates, statements or documents.

Section 25.            Custody of Mortgage Loan Documents. The originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than each Non-Lead Securitization Note) (a) prior to the Lead Securitization will be held by the Initial Agent and (b) after the Lead Securitization, will be held by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (in the name of the Trustee and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), in each case, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes.

Section 26.            Cooperation in Securitization.

(a)               Each Note Holder acknowledges that any Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization. In connection with a Securitization and subject to the terms of the preceding sentence, at the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall use reasonable efforts, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s expense, to satisfy, and to cooperate with the Lead Securitization Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to satisfy, the market standards to which the Lead Securitization Note Holder customarily adheres or which may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with the Securitization, including, entering into (or consenting to, as applicable) any modifications to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Documents and to cooperate with the Lead Securitization Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute such modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents, in any such case, as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies to effect the Securitization; provided, however, that either in connection with the Lead Securitization or otherwise at any time prior to the Lead Securitization, none of the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders shall be

48

required to modify or amend this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Documents (or consent to such modification, as applicable) in connection therewith, if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to or priority of such payments to, a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or (ii) materially increase a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders’ obligations or materially decrease any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders’ rights, remedies or protections. In connection with the Lead Securitization, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees to provide for inclusion in any disclosure document relating to the Lead Securitization such information concerning such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and the related Non-Lead Securitization Note as the Lead Securitization Note Holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate. Such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that it shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s expense, cooperate with the reasonable requests of each Rating Agency and Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization (including, without limitation, reasonably cooperating with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (without any obligation to make additional representations and warranties) to enable the Lead Securitization Note Holder to make all necessary certifications and deliver all necessary opinions (including customary securities law opinions) in connection with the Mortgage Loan and the Lead Securitization), as well as in connection with all other matters and the preparation of any offering documents thereof and to review and respond reasonably promptly with respect to any information relating to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and the related Non-Lead Securitization Note in any Securitization document. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder acknowledges that the information provided by it to the Lead Securitization Note Holder may be incorporated into the offering documents for the Lead Securitization. The Lead Securitization Note Holder and each Rating Agency shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder. The Lead Securitization Note Holder will reasonably cooperate with each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder by providing all information reasonably requested that is in the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s possession in connection with each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders’ preparation of disclosure materials in connection with a Securitization.

(b)               Upon request, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall deliver to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder drafts of the preliminary and final Lead Securitization offering memoranda, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus and any other disclosure documents and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and provide reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such documents.

Section 27.            Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be given by (i) telephone (confirmed promptly in writing) or shall be in writing and personally delivered, (ii) sent by facsimile transmission (during business hours) if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (iii) reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid) or (iv) certified United States mail, postage prepaid return receipt requested, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses set forth on Exhibit B hereto, or at such other address as any party shall hereafter inform the other party by written notice given as aforesaid. All written notices so given shall be deemed effective upon receipt.

Section 28.            Broker. Each Note Holder represents to each other that no broker was responsible for bringing about this transaction.

49

Section 29.            Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a)               The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 14 and Section 15;

(b)               The Agent may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

(c)               The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any Note Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(d)               None of the Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act shall be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(e)               The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15;

(f)                The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder; and

(g)               The Agent represents and warrants that it is a Qualified Institutional Lender.

Section 30.            Termination and Resignation of Agent. (a) The Agent may be terminated at any time upon ten (10) days prior written notice from the Lead Securitization Note Holder. If the Agent is terminated pursuant to this Section 30, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination.

(b)               The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. WFB, as Initial Agent, may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of WFB without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of such Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement.

50

Section 31.            Resizing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for so long as an Initial Note Holder or an affiliate of an Initial Note Holder (the “Resizing Holder”) is the owner of any Non-Lead Securitization Note (the “Owned Note”) and such Owned Note is not included in a Securitization, such Resizing Holder shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated notes or additional notes (in either case, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of the Owned Note to such New Notes or severing the Owned Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the Owned Note; provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the aggregate principal of the Owned Note prior to such amendments, (ii) all Notes continue to have the same weighted average interest rate as the Notes prior to such amendments or re-allocations, (iii) all Notes pay pro rata and on a pari passu basis and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement, (iv) the Resizing Holder holding the New Notes shall notify the Lead Securitization Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing of such modified allocations and principal amounts, and (v) the execution of such amendments and New Notes does not violate the Servicing Standard. If the Lead Securitization Note Holder so requests, the Resizing Holder (and any subsequent holder of such Notes) shall execute a confirmation of the continuing applicability of this Agreement to the New Notes, as so modified. Except for the foregoing reallocation and for modifications pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as discussed in Section 5), no Note may be modified or amended without the consent of its holder and the consent of the holder of the other Notes. In connection with the foregoing (provided the conditions set forth in (i) through (v) above are satisfied, with respect to (i) through (iv), as certified by the Resizing Holder, on which certification the Master Servicer can rely), the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and directed to execute amendments to the Mortgage Loan Documents and this Agreement on behalf of any or all of the Note Holders, as applicable, solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal. If the Controlling Note is involved in any resizing contemplated by this Section 31, the applicable Note Holder shall be entitled to designate any one of the related New Notes as the Controlling Note, and the definitions of “Controlling Note” and “Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly. Any New Note that is created in a resizing contemplated by this Section 31 and is not the Controlling Note shall be deemed to be a Non-Controlling Note under this Agreement, the definitions of “Non-Controlling Note” and “Non-Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly to include such New Notes, and the applicable Note Holders of such Non-Controlling Notes shall have the same rights and responsibilities as all other Non-Controlling Note Holders.

51

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Initial Note Holders have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.

(ii)                               The execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Holder, and performance of, and compliance with, the terms of this Agreement by such Holder, will not violate its organizational documents or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the breach of, any material agreement or other instrument to which it is a party or that is applicable to it or any of its assets, in each case which materially and adversely affect its ability to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(iii)                            Such Holder has the full power and authority to enter into and consummate all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, has duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement.

(iv)                            This Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Holder enforceable against such Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law.

(v)                               It has the right to enter into this Agreement without the consent of any third party.

(vi)                            It is the holder of its respective Note for its own account in the ordinary course of its business.

(vii)                         It has not dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent or other person, that may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(viii)                      It is a Qualified Transferee.

8.                  Independent Analyses of each Holder. Each Holder acknowledges that, except for the representations made in Section 7, it has, independently and without reliance upon any other Holders and based on such documents and information as such Holder has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to purchase its respective Note. Each

  -25-  

 

Holder hereby acknowledges that the other Holders shall have no responsibility for (i) the collectability of the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the validity, enforceability or legal effect of any of the Mortgage Loan Documents or the title insurance policy or policies or any survey furnished or to be furnished in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, (iii) the validity, sufficiency or effectiveness of the lien created or to be created by the Mortgage Loan Documents, or (iv) the financial condition of the Borrower.

9.                  No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute between any Holder (or any servicer or trustee on its behalf) and any other Holder a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. Each Holder (or any servicer or trustee on its behalf) shall have no obligation whatsoever to offer to the other Holders the opportunity to purchase notes or interests relating to any future loans originated by such Holder or any of its Affiliates, and if any Holder chooses to offer to any of the other Holders, the opportunity to purchase notes or interests in any future mortgage loans originated by such Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. None of the Holders shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from any other Holder any notes or interests in any future loans originated by any other Holder or any of its Affiliates.

10.              Not a Security. None of the Notes shall be deemed to be a security within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

11.              Other Business Activities of the Holders. Each Holder acknowledges that the other Holders may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Borrower Party, and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to any Borrower Party and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability, but only if none of the foregoing violate the Mortgage Loan Documents, in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

12.              Transfer of Notes. (a)  Each Holder may Transfer up to 49% (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in its Note whether or not the related transferee is a Qualified Transferee without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Each Holder shall not Transfer more than 49% (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in its Note unless (i) prior to a Securitization of any Note, the other Holders have consented to such Transfer, in which case the related transferee shall thereafter be deemed to be a “Qualified Transferee” for all purposes under this Agreement, (ii) after a Securitization of any Note, a Rating Agency Confirmation has been received with respect to such Transfer, in which case the related transferee shall thereafter be deemed to be a “Qualified Transferee” for all purposes under this Agreement, or (iii) such Transfer is to a Qualified Transferee. Any such transferee must assume in writing the obligations of the transferring Holder hereunder and agree to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement. Such proposed transferee (except in the case of Transfers that are made in connection with a Securitization) shall also remake each of the representations and warranties contained herein for the benefit of the other Holders.

  -26-  

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the non-transferring Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if such non-transferring Holder’s Note is in a Securitization, without a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency that has been engaged by the related Depositor to rate the securities issued in connection with such Securitization, no Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note to any Borrower Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee.

(b)               Except for a Transfer made in connection with a Securitization, or a Transfer made by an Initial Note Holder to an Affiliate, at least five (5) days prior to a transfer of any Note, the transferring Holder shall provide to the other Holders and, if any Certificates are outstanding, to the Rating Agencies, a certification that such transfer will be made in accordance with this Section 12, such certification to include (1) the name and contact information of the transferee and (2) if applicable, a certification by the transferee that it is a Qualified Transferee.

(c)               The Holders acknowledge that any Rating Agency Confirmation may be granted or denied by the Rating Agencies in their sole and absolute discretion and that such Rating Agencies may charge the transferring Holder customary fees in connection with providing such Rating Agency Confirmation.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Holder may pledge or transfer (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than any Borrower Party) that has extended a credit facility to such Holder or has entered into a repurchase agreement with such Holder and that, in each case, is either a Qualified Transferee or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency (a “Note Pledgee”), or to a Person with respect to which a Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained, on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 12(d), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to any Holder or any Affiliate that controls such Holder that is secured by such Holder’s interest in its respective Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder on the condition that all applicable terms and conditions of this Section 12(d) are complied with. A Note Pledgee that is not a Qualified Transferee may not take title to a Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice, if any, by the pledging Holder to the other Holders and any Master Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), the other Holders agree to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agree: (i) to give such Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Holder has actual knowledge and which notice shall be given simultaneously with the giving of such notice to the pledging Holder; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) Business Days to cure a default by the pledging Holder in respect of its obligations to the other Holders hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement (if the pledging Holder had the right to consent to such amendment, modification, waiver or termination pursuant to the terms hereof) shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to be given if Note Pledgee shall fail to respond to any request for consent to any such amendment, modification, waiver or termination within 10 days after request therefor; (iv) that the other Holders shall accept any cure by such Note Pledgee of any default of the

  -27-  

 

pledging Holder which such pledging Holder has the right to effect hereunder, as if such cure were made by such pledging Holder; (v) that the other Holders or any Servicer shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the other Holders; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to any Master Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Holder is in default beyond any applicable cure periods with respect to the pledging Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement or other agreements relating to the Pledge between the pledging Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee (or at any time that pledging Holder otherwise directs that such payment be made to Note Pledgee pursuant to a separate notice) shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Servicer would otherwise be obligated to make to the pledging Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases the other Holders and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Holder on account of any Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or other Holders in good faith to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Holder (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law, the pledge agreement, repurchase agreement or similar agreement between the pledging Holder and the Note Pledgee and this Agreement. In such event, or if the pledging holder otherwise assigns its interests to the Note Pledgee, the other Holders and any Master Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee (other than any Borrower Party) that is also a Qualified Transferee at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and such Person’s successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Transferee shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 12(d) shall remain effective as to any Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified such Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

13.              Exercise of Remedies by the Servicer.               (a)  Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Directing Holder, the Servicer shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole and exclusive authority to (i) modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, (ii) consent to any action or failure to act by the Borrower or any party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, (iii) vote all claims with respect to the Mortgage Loan in any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceedings and (iv) to take legal action to enforce or protect each Holder’s interests with respect to the Mortgage Loan or to refrain from exercising any powers or rights under the Mortgage Loan Documents, including the right at any time to call or waive any Events of Default, or accelerate or refrain from accelerating the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action, and the Holders shall have no voting, consent or other rights whatsoever with respect to the Servicer’s administration of, or exercise of

  -28-  

 

its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall have the sole and exclusive authority to make Property Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Holder agrees that it shall have no right to, and hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Servicer the rights, if any, that such Holder has to (A) call or cause the Servicer to call an event of default under the Mortgage Loan, or (B) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Note Holder or such Servicer to file any bankruptcy petition against the Borrower. Each Holder shall, from time to time, execute such documents as any Servicer shall reasonably require to evidence such assignment with respect to the rights described in clause (iii) of the first sentence in this Section 13(a).

(b)               The Lead Servicer and the Trustee for the Lead Securitization shall not have any fiduciary duty to the Non-Lead Note Holders in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Servicer and such Trustee from their respective obligation under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein).

(c)               The Holders hereby acknowledge that the Servicing Agreement shall provide that, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the next sentence, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, if the Special Servicer determines to sell the Defaulted Mortgage Loan (or the Lead Note), it will be required to sell the entire Defaulted Mortgage Loan as a single whole loan (i.e., both the Lead Note and Non-Lead Notes). Any such sale of the entire Defaulted Mortgage Loan is subject to the satisfaction of one of the following two conditions:

(i)                                Each Non-Lead Note Holder has provided written consent to such sale; or

(ii)                            The Special Servicer has delivered the following notices and information to each Non-Lead Note Holder:

(1)               at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Defaulted Mortgage Loan;

(2)               at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale;

(3)               at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File requested by a Non-Lead Note Holder; and

(4)               until the sale is completed and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Directing Holder) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other

  -29-  

 

documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale.

Any Non-Lead Note Holder may waive any delivery or timing requirements set forth above only for itself. Subject to the foregoing, each of the Lead Note Holder, the Directing Holder, the Non-Lead Note Holders and the Non-Directing Holders shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Defaulted Mortgage Loan (unless such Person is a Borrower Party).

Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 13(c), the Non-Lead Note Holders hereby appoint the Lead Note Holder as their agent, and grant to the Lead Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of the Non-Lead Notes. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 13(c), each Non-Lead Note Holder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Note Holder, such Non-Lead Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of Lead Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver the related original Non-Lead Note, endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the exercise by the Servicer on behalf of the Holders of its rights under this Section 13 shall be subject in all respects to any section of the Servicing Agreement governing REMIC administration, and in no event shall the Servicer be permitted to take any action or refrain from taking any action if taking or failing to take such action, as the case may be, would violate the laws of any applicable jurisdiction, breach the Mortgage Loan Documents or be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard or violate any other provisions of the Servicing Agreement or violate the REMIC provisions of the Code or any regulations promulgated thereunder, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 2(f) of this Agreement.

14.              Rights of the Directing Holder. The Directing Holder shall be entitled to exercise the rights and powers granted to the Directing Holder hereunder and the rights and powers granted to the “Directing Holder,” “Controlling Class Certificateholder,” “Controlling Class Representative” or similar party under, and as defined in, the Servicing Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loan. In addition, the Directing Holder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters related to a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, and, except as set forth below (i) the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to take any Major Decision unless it has obtained the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and (ii) the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to consent to the Master Servicer’s taking any Major Decision nor will the Special Servicer itself be permitted to take any Major Decision as to which the Directing Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after receipt of the written recommendation and analysis and such additional information requested by the Directing Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Directing Holder in order to make a judgment with respect to such Major Decision. The Directing Holder may also

  -30-  

 

direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Directing Holder may deem advisable.

If the Directing Holder fails to notify the Special Servicer of its approval or disapproval of any proposed Major Decision within ten (10) Business Days (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after delivery to the Directing Holder by the applicable Servicer of written notice of a proposed Major Decision, together with any information requested by the Directing Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Directing Holder in order to make a judgment, then upon the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) period, such Major Decision shall be deemed to have been approved by the Directing Holder.

In the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by the Servicing Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any other matter requiring consent of the Directing Holder is necessary to protect the interests of the Holders (as a collective whole) and the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Directing Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Directing Holder’s response.

No objection, direction or advice contemplated by the preceding paragraphs may require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of the Mortgage Loan Documents, applicable law, the Servicing Agreement, this Agreement, the REMIC provisions of the Code or the Master Servicer or Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, or expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Lead Securitization Trust or the Trustee to liability, or materially expand the scope of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s responsibilities under the Servicing Agreement.

The Directing Holder shall have no liability to the other Holders or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The Holders agree that the Directing Holder may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Holder over the other Holder, and that the Directing Holder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of another Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Directing Holder, agree to take no action against the Directing Holder or any of its officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that the Directing Holder will not be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Holder.

15.              Appointment of Special Servicer. Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for so long as the Lead Note is included in the Lead

  -31-  

 

Securitization, the Directing Holder shall have the right at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a Qualified Servicer as the replacement Special Servicer in lieu thereof. The Directing Holder shall designate a Person to serve as Special Servicer by delivering to the other Holders and the parties to each PSA a written notice stating such designation and by satisfying the other conditions required under the Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, a Rating Agency Confirmation, if required by the terms of the Servicing Agreement), if any.

16.              Rights of the Non-Directing Holders.              (a)  The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Servicer shall be required:

(i)                               to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Directing Holder pursuant to the Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan to the Non-Directing Holders, within the same time frame it is required to provide to the Directing Holder; provided, however, following a Non-Lead Securitization, all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Non-Directing Holder or the related Non-Lead Note Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Lead Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be delivered to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer, the related Non-Lead Special Servicer and the related Non-Lead Certificate Administrator (who then may forward such items to the party entitled to receive such items as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and, when so delivered to such Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer and Non-Lead Certificate Administrator, the Lead Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that all items that relate to the related Non-Lead Depositor’s compliance with any applicable securities laws shall also be delivered to such Non-Lead Depositor; and

(ii)                            to consult with each Non-Directing Holder on a strictly non-binding basis, if, having received such notices, information and reports, such Non-Directing Holder requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decision or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such Non-Directing Holder; provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days (or in connection with an Acceptable Insurance Default, thirty (30) days) from the delivery to each Non-Directing Holder of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notices, information and reports required to be provided to, or requested by, the Directing Holder, the Servicer shall no longer be obligated to consult with the Non-Directing Holders (unless the Servicer proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period (or in connection with an Acceptable Insurance Default, thirty (30) day period) shall be begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto).

  -32-  

 

(b)               Notwithstanding the foregoing non-binding consultation rights of the Non-Directing Holders, the Servicer may take any Major Decision or any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period (or thirty (30) day period with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) if the Servicer determines, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Holders.

(c)               In addition to the foregoing non-binding consultation rights, the Non-Directing Holders shall have the right to annual conference calls with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.

(d)               In no event shall the Servicer be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by any of the Non-Directing Holders.

(e)               Any Non-Directing Holder that is a Borrower Party shall not be entitled to any of the rights set forth in this Section 16.

17.              Advances; Reimbursement of Advances.        (a) (i) Pursuant to terms of the Servicing Agreement, the Lead Servicer and/or the related Trustee shall be obligated (subject to customary determinations of non-recoverability) to make (1) Property Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property and (2) P&I Advances with respect to the Lead Note and (ii) pursuant to the terms of a Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and/or the related Non-Lead Trustee may be obligated to make P&I Advances with respect to the related Non-Lead Note. The Lead Servicer and/or the related Trustee will not be required to make any P&I Advance with respect to any Non-Lead Note and the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and/or the related Non-Lead Trustee will not be required to make any P&I Advance with respect to any Lead Note, any other Non-Lead Note or any Property Advance. The Lead Servicer, each Non-Lead Master Servicer, the Trustee and any related Non-Lead Trustee will be entitled to interest on any Advance (at a rate not to exceed the Prime Rate) made in the manner and from the sources provided in the Note A-1 PSA, the Note A-2 PSA, the Note A-3 PSA, the Note A-4 PSA, the Note A-5 PSA, the Note A-6 PSA, the Note A-7 PSA, the Note A-8 PSA, the Note A-9 PSA, the Note A-10 PSA, the Note A-11 PSA and the Note A-12 PSA, as applicable.

(b)               The Lead Servicer and the related Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for a Property Advance, first from the Collection Account established with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and then, if such Property Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, if such funds on deposit in the Collection Account are insufficient, from general collections of the Lead Securitization as provided in the Servicing Agreement.

(c)               To the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to the Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee, as applicable, for any Property Advance and/or interest thereon and the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee, as applicable, obtains funds from general collections of the Lead Securitization as a reimbursement for such Property Advance or interest thereon, each Non-Lead Note Holder

  -33-  

 

(including any Securitization into which the related Non-Lead Note is deposited) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Lead Servicer, pay to the Lead Securitization for its Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis share of such Property Advance and/or interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate so reimbursed from general collections (to the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts). In addition, each Non-Lead Note Holder (including any Securitization into which the related Non-Lead Note is deposited) shall promptly pay or reimburse the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee for such Non-Lead Note Holder’s Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis share of any fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan (including, without limitation, any and all fees, costs or expenses related to obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation) as to which the Lead Securitization or any of the parties thereto are entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreement (to the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts).

-16-

servicer(s) pursuant to such servicing agreement would not, in and of itself, cause a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then-current ratings assigned to the securities issued in connection with such Securitization; provided, further, however, that until a replacement servicing agreement has been entered into, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (excluding, however, any obligation to make any P&I Advances in respect of the Lead Securitization Note except as specifically agreed to by the Servicer, and provided that the Servicer’s right to reimbursement for Property Advances as set forth in Section 2(b) shall remain in effect) as if such agreement was still in full force and effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan, by the Servicer in the Lead Securitization or by any Person appointed by the Lead Securitization Note Holder that is a qualified servicer meeting the requirements of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (and, in the case of the Special Servicer, that satisfies the Required Special Servicer Rating).

Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees to indemnify (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of the following parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the Depositor (and any director, officer, employee or agent of any of the foregoing, to the extent such parties are identified as indemnified parties in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in respect of other mortgage loans) (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property (or, with respect to the Operating Advisor, incurred in connection with the provision of services for the Mortgage Loan) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Items”) to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Loan Combination Custodial Account that are allocated to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, each such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for its pro rata share of the insufficiency (including, if the related Non-Lead Securitization Note has been included in a Non-Lead Securitization, from general collections or any other amounts from the related Non-Lead Securitization Trust).

Each Non-Lead Master Servicer may be required to make P&I Advances on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note, from time to time, subject to the terms of the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement.

Each Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer and Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on a related Non-Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Each of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Non-Lead Master Servicers and the Non-Lead Trustees, as applicable, will only be entitled to reimbursement for a P&I Advance that becomes non-recoverable and Advance Interest Amounts thereon first from the Loan Combination Custodial Account from amounts allocable to the Note for which such P&I Advance was made, and then, if funds are insufficient, (i) in the case of the Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the Lead Securitization Trust, pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the related Securitization Trust, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

-23-

Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall, upon the direction of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, require the appointment of a subservicer with respect to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note. Upon the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Special Servicer affecting a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, if the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall, upon direction of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, terminate the Special Servicer with respect to, but only with respect to, the Mortgage Loan;

(xviii)    upon any resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, any termination of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer and/or any replacement thereof, any appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, or the effectiveness of any designation of a new Special Servicer, the Trustee or Certificate Administrator shall promptly (and in any event no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such resignation, termination, replacement and/or appointment of a Master Servicer or Special Servicer) provide written notice thereof to each Non-Lead Trustee, Non-Lead Master Servicer, and Non-Lead Depositor, together with any information reasonably required (including, without limitation, any disclosure required under Item 1108 of Regulation AB) for the related Non-Lead Securitization to comply with any applicable reporting obligations under the Exchange Act; provided, that such notice shall not be deemed to be provided unless receipt thereof has been confirmed in writing (which may be by email) from the applicable Non-Lead Depositor;

-25-

promptly following the related Non-Lead Securitization, notice of the deposit of the related Non-Lead Securitization Note into a Securitization Trust (which notice may be (x) in the form of delivery (which may be by email) of a copy of the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (y) by email notification together with contact information for the related Non-Lead Trustee, Non-Lead Certificate Administrator, Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer and party designated to exercise the rights of a “Non-Controlling Note Holder” under this Agreement), accompanied by a copy of such executed Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and (ii) notice of any subsequent change in the identity of the related Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Trustee or party designated to exercise the rights of a “Non-Controlling Note Holder” under this Agreement (together with the relevant contact information) (which may be in the form of email delivery of a copy of any revised Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement); and

(iv)               the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Lead Securitization Trust shall be third party beneficiaries of the foregoing provisions.

(e)                   With respect to a Lead Securitization, the Initial Note Holder who assigns the Note that becomes the Lead Securitization Note (or, if there is more than one Lead Securitization Note, becomes the larger or largest Lead Securitization Note in such Lead Securitization) to the related Depositor for such Securitization shall:

(i)                      on the closing date of such Lead Securitization, send a copy (in EDGAR-compatible format) of the related Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the other Note Holders; and

Section 3.                   Priority of Payments. Each Note shall be of equal priority, and no portion of either Note shall have priority or preference over any portion of the other Note or security therefor.

All amounts tendered by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or otherwise available for payment on or with respect to or in connection with the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property or amounts realized as proceeds thereof, whether received in the form of Monthly Payments, the Balloon Payment, Liquidation Proceeds, proceeds under any guaranty, letter of credit or other collateral or instrument securing the Mortgage Loan, Condemnation Proceeds, or Insurance Proceeds (other than proceeds, awards or settlements to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgage Loan Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents), but excluding (x) all amounts for required reserves or escrows required by the Mortgage Loan Documents (to the extent, in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents) to be held as reserves or escrows or received as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of property protection expenses or Property Advances then due

-26-

and payable or reimbursable to the Trustee or any Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (y) all amounts that are then due, payable or reimbursable (except for (i) any reimbursements of P&I Advances previously made (and interest thereon) on the Lead Securitization Note, and (ii) any Servicing Fees due to the Master Servicer in excess of the Non-Lead Securitization Notes’ pro rata shares of that portion of such Servicing Fees calculated at the “primary servicing fee rate” (or analogous term) applicable to the Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) to any Servicer or the Trustee, with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including without limitation, any Additional Trust Fund Expenses relating to the Mortgage Loan (but subject to second paragraph of Section 5(e) hereof) reimbursable to, or payable to, such parties and any Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees, Workout Fees, Assumption Fees, Modification Fees, Penalty Charges (to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph) and any other additional compensation payable pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), shall be applied by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its designee) to the Notes on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis.

For clarification purposes, Penalty Charges (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) paid on each Note shall first, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer for any interest accrued on any Property Advances and reimbursement of any Property Advances in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, second, be used to reduce the respective amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee, each Non-Lead Master Servicer or each Non-Lead Trustee for any interest accrued on any P&I Advance made with respect to such Note by such party (if and as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable), third, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay Additional Trust Fund Expenses (including Special Servicing Fees, unpaid Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan (as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and, finally, (i) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to the Lead Securitization Note(s), be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note, be paid, (x) prior to the securitization of such Note, to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and (y) following the securitization of such Note, to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Any proceeds received by any Note Holder from the sale of master servicing rights with respect to its Note shall be for its own account. Any Note Holder that receives proceeds from the sale of the primary servicing rights with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds”) shall remit to the other Note Holders, promptly upon receipt thereof, such amounts as are required such that each Note Holder receives its pro rata share of such proceeds on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if a Note is held by a Securitization Trust at a time when its Note Holder would be entitled to receive any amount under such preceding sentence, such amount shall be remitted to the Person that was the Note Holder of such Note immediately prior to the transfer of such Note to the depositor for such Securitization. On and after the Lead Securitization Date, if any portion of the Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds

-27-

is required to be repaid to the Master Servicer, each Person that received any portion of such Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds in its capacity as a Note Holder as contemplated by the preceding sentence (each such Person, a “Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds Recipient”) shall be obligated to pay the Master Servicer its pro rata share of the portion required to be repaid to such Master Servicer; provided, however, that such obligation shall remain an obligation of such Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds Recipient notwithstanding any transfer of the related Note(s) (and the related rights under this Agreement) to a subsequent Note Holder absent an explicit written assumption of such obligation which assumption specifies this last paragraph of Section 3 of this Agreement.

Section 4.                    Workout. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Securitization Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal priorities of each Note as described in Section 3.

Section 5.                    Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)       Subject to this Agreement (including but not limited to Section 5(d)) and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy, and no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever except as explicitly set forth herein with respect to the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that it shall have no right to, and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) the rights, if any, that such Note Holder has to, (i) call or cause the Lead Securitization Note Holder to call an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Securitization Note Holder to file any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the

-28-

foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Note Holder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or its obligation to follow the Servicing Standard (in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or any liability for failure to do so).

Each Note Holder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder), upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, to sell the Notes as notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. In connection with any such sale, the Special Servicer shall be required to sell the Notes together in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a fair price. Subject to the other provisions of this paragraph and the two following paragraphs and the applicable provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Special Servicer shall accept the first (and, if multiple offers are contemporaneously received, the highest) cash offer received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for such Defaulted Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicer shall notify the Controlling Note Holder Representative and each Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative of any inquiries or offers received regarding the sale of such Defaulted Mortgage Loan.

Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan shall be determined by the Special Servicer, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, and by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested Person (provided that the Trustee may not be an offeror) unless (i) the offer is equal to or greater than the applicable Purchase Price, (ii) the offer is the highest offer received and (iii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties; provided, however, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. In all cases under this Agreement (except to the extent the Trustee is not required to determine whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence), in determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the preceding 9-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. The appraiser conducting any such new Appraisal shall be an Appraiser selected by (i) the Special Servicer if no Interested Person is making an offer with respect to the Mortgage Loan and (ii) the Trustee if an Interested Person is so making an offer. The cost of any such Appraisal shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable as, a Property Advance. In determining whether any such offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the prior 9 months), and in determining whether any offer from an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, any Appraiser shall be instructed to take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the Mortgage Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. The Purchase Price for the Mortgage Loan shall in all cases be deemed a fair price; provided, however, that with respect to Interested Parties, the requirements of the first sentence of this paragraph must be satisfied. Notwithstanding anything contained in this paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the

Interested Person) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least 5 years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the Mortgage Loan that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan. If the Trustee designates such a third party to make such determination, the Trustee will be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party pursuant to this paragraph will be covered by, and will be reimbursable by the Interested Person; provided that the Trustee will not engage a third party expert whose fees exceed a commercially reasonable amount as determined by the Trustee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan if it becomes a Defaulted Mortgage Loan without the written consent of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (provided that such consent is not required from the Non-Controlling Note Holder if it is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to such Non-Controlling Note Holder: (a) at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale, (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File reasonably requested by such Non-Controlling Note Holder that are material to the price of the Mortgage Loan and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by any Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided, that such Non-Controlling Note Holder may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this sentence. Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each of the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Non-Controlling Note Holders and the Non-Controlling Note Holder Representatives shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Mortgage Loan unless such Person is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an agent or Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of the related Non-Lead Securitization Note. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver its original Non-Lead Securitization Note, endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to sell any Non-Lead Securitization Note, and the obligations of each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder to execute

-30-

and deliver instruments or deliver the related Non-Lead Securitization Note upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Securitization Note is repurchased by the Person that sold such Lead Securitization Note into the Lead Securitization from the Lead Securitization Trust in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization. The preceding sentence shall not be construed to grant to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the benefit of any representation or warranty made by the Person that sold such Lead Securitization Note into the Lead Securitization or any document delivery obligation imposed on such Person under any mortgage loan purchase and sale agreement, instrument of transfer or other document or instrument that may be executed or delivered by such Person in connection with the Lead Securitization.

(b)       The administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (or to the extent otherwise provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), by the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, taking into account the interests of all Note Holders as a collective whole. The Note Holders agree to be bound by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Note Holder described hereunder may be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Trustee on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder. The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not be amended in any manner that may materially and adversely affect a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder without such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s prior written consent. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (unless it is the same Person as or an Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) shall be a third-party beneficiary to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to its rights as specifically provided for therein.

(c)       The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have, with respect to the Mortgage Loan, all of the same rights and powers of the Controlling Class Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the other mortgage loans included in the Lead Securitization, without limitation, the right to consent and/or consult regarding Major Decisions and other servicing matters, the right to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all Specially Serviced Loans and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to non-Specially Serviced Loans as to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, and the right to direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Class Representative may deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made therein, in each case subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

-31-

(d)       Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be required (i) to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, to each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), within the same time frame it is required to provide such notice, information or report to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) to consult with each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative); provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to a Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) by the Lead Securitization Note Holder of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report that would be required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative as set forth above, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall no longer be obligated to consult with such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), whether or not such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the non-binding consultation rights of the Non-Controlling Note Holders (or their respective Non-Controlling Note Holder Representatives) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders. In no event shall the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by a Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative).

In addition to the non-binding consultation rights provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to attend annual meetings (which may be held telephonically or in person, at the discretion of the Servicer) with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf), upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the

-32-

Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.

(e)       If any Note is included as an asset of a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a “REMIC”), within the meaning of Section 860D(a) of the Code, then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interest of the pro rata share of each Note Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Note Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC which includes the Notes (or any portion thereof). Each Note Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected by compliance with any REMIC provisions in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan.

Anything herein or in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that one of the Notes is included in a REMIC and one or more Notes are not, such Note Holder whose Notes are not included in a REMIC shall not be required to reimburse such Note Holder whose Note is included in a REMIC or any other Person for payment of (i) any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to any other Note Holder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

Section 6.                 Appointment of Controlling Note Holder Representative and Non-Controlling Note Holder Representatives.

(a)       The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Controlling Note Holder Representative”). The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Note Holder Representative. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower, its principal or any Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower), including, without limitation, the Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Note Holder, any affiliate of the Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party. No such Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any

-33-

fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Note Holder. Any Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until the Controlling Note Holder has notified the Servicer or Trustee of such appointment and, if the Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative provides any Servicer or Trustee with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment, an address and facsimile number for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and facsimile numbers). The Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to any Servicer. None of the Servicers, Operating Advisor and Trustee shall be required to recognize any person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until they receive such information from the Controlling Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder agrees to inform each such Servicer or Trustee of the then-current Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(b)       Neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will have any liability to any other Note Holder or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder (whether acting in place of the Controlling Note Holder Representative when no Controlling Note Holder Representative shall have been appointed hereunder or otherwise exercising any right, power or privilege granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over any other Note Holder, and that the Controlling Note Holder Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of a Note Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Controlling Note Holder Representative or the Controlling Note Holder, as the case may be, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Controlling Note Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

(c)       Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (with respect to such Note Holder, the “Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative”). All of the provisions relating to the Controlling Note Holder and the Controlling Note Holder Representative set forth in Section 6(a) (except those contained in the last sentence thereof) and Section 6(b) shall apply to each Non-Controlling Note Holder and each Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative mutatis mutandis. The Non-Controlling Note Holder

-34-

Representatives, unless and until the Lead Securitization Note Holder (and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) is notified otherwise, shall be the Initial Note Holders of the Non-Controlling Notes, provided that at any time a Non-Controlling Note is included in a Securitization, references to a “Non-Controlling Note Holder” herein shall mean, with respect to such Note, the Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative or any other party assigned the rights to exercise the rights of a “Non-Controlling Note Holder” hereunder, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and as to the identity of which the Lead Securitization Note Holder (and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) has been given written notice.

Section 7.                   Appointment of Special Servicer. The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have the right at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer in lieu thereof. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to each other Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the then existing Special Servicer and other parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, a Rating Agency Confirmation, if required by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), if any; provided, that in the event the replacement Special Servicer does not have the Required Special Servicer Rating from any Rating Agency rating a Non-Lead Securitization, a Rating Agency Confirmation will be required to be obtained with respect to such Rating Agency and delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the other parties hereto of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid. If a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer has occurred that affects a Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced) solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced). The Controlling Note Holder and the Non-Controlling Note Holders acknowledge and agree that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at a Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction

-35-

cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non-Controlling Note Holder. Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account.

Section 8.                    Payment Procedure.

(a)       The Lead Securitization Note Holder, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Loan Combination Custodial Account pursuant to and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deposit such amounts to the applicable account within two (2) Business Days after receipt of properly identified funds by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower; provided, however, that in the event the Master Servicer is in receipt of properly identified funds that are not available to the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer may instead deposit such amounts into the related Loan Combination Custodial Account on the same Business Day that such properly identified funds become available to the Master Servicer.

(b)       If the Lead Securitization Note Holder determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of any Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to the Lead Securitization Note Holder, any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Note Holder repay to the Lead Securitization Note Holder any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have theretofore distributed to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have been required to pay to any Mortgage Loan Borrower, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or such other Person with respect thereto.

(c)       If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Note Holder makes any payment to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder before the Lead Securitization Note Holder has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Note Holder does not receive the corresponding payment within five (5) Business Days of its payment to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(d)       Each Note Holder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it shall promptly remit such excess to the applicable Note Holder, subject to this

-36-

Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder under the Mortgage Loan. Such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 9.                   Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders. Each Initial Note Holder shall have no liability to any other Note Holder with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Initial Note Holder; provided, however, that to the extent that any Securitization Servicing Agreement imposes a different standard of care on any party thereto, then such Securitization Servicing Agreement shall control.

The Note Holders acknowledge that, subject to the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Note Holder may have under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) shall have no liability whatsoever to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Note Holder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, however, that the Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 10.              Bankruptcy. Subject to Section 5(d), each Note Holder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Servicer has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder further agrees that only the Servicer, and not any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or any of their representatives, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. The Note Holders hereby appoint the Servicer as their agent, and grant to the Servicer an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Note Holders hereby agree that, upon the request of the Servicer, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer all

-37-

and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Servicer may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by the Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 11.           Representations of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement is within its corporate powers, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and does not contravene such Note Holder’s charter or any law or contractual restriction binding upon such Note Holder, and that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Note Holder enforceable against such Note Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, in good standing and in possession of all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that (a) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Note Holder, (b) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Note Holder have been obtained or made and (c) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, there is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against such Note Holder, an adverse outcome of which would materially and adversely affect its performance under this Agreement.

Section 12.             Independent Analysis of Each Note Holder. Each Note Holder acknowledges that, except for the representations made in Section 11, it has, independently and without reliance upon any other Note Holders and based on such documents and information as such Note Holder has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to purchase its respective Note. Each Note Holder hereby acknowledges that the other Note Holders shall have no responsibility for (i) the collectability of the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the validity, enforceability or legal effect of any of the Mortgage Loan Documents or the title insurance policy or policies or any survey furnished or to be furnished in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, (iii) the validity, sufficiency or effectiveness of the lien created or to be created by the Mortgage Loan Documents, or (iv) the financial condition of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder assumes all risk of loss in connection with its respective Note for reasons other than gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement by any other Note Holder or gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith by any Servicer.

Section 13.         No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between the Note Holders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates and if any Note Holder chooses to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future mortgage loans originated by such

-38-

Note Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Note Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from any other Note Holder a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates.

Section 14.            Other Business Activities of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder acknowledges that each other Note Holder or its Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, any entity that is a holder of debt secured by direct or indirect ownership interests in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any entity that is a holder of a preferred equity interest in the Mortgage Loan Borrower (each, a “Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party”), and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Parties and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 15.              Sale of the Notes.

(a)       Each Note Holder agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its respective Note (a “Transfer”) except to a Qualified Institutional Lender. Promptly after the Transfer, the non-transferring Note Holder shall be provided with (x) a representation from a transferee or the applicable Note Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender (except in the case of a Transfer in accordance with the immediately following sentence) and (y) a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 16 (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement). If a Note Holder intends to Transfer its respective Note, or any portion thereof, to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, it must first obtain the consent of each non-transferring Note Holder and, if any such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, a confirmation in writing from each Rating Agency that such Transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without each non-transferring Note Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if any non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, without a confirmation in writing from each related Rating Agency that such Transfer will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization, no Note Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note (or a participation interest in such Note) to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or a Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. The transferring Note Holder agrees that it shall pay the expenses of any non-transferring Note Holder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee) and all expenses relating to the confirmation from the Rating Agencies in connection with any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Note Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of any other Note Holder, the Rating Agencies or any other Person, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in a Note. None of the provisions of this Section 15(a) shall apply in the case of (1) a sale of all the Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or (2) a transfer by the Special Servicer, in accordance with the terms and conditions

-39-

of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, of the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, to a single member limited liability or limited partnership, 100% of the equity interest in which is owned directly or indirectly, through one or more single member limited liability companies or limited partnerships, by the Lead Securitization Trust.

For the purposes of this Agreement, if any Rating Agency shall, in writing, waive, decline or refuse to review or otherwise engage any request for a confirmation hereunder from such Rating Agency that a proposed action will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization, such waiver, declination, or refusal shall be deemed to eliminate, for such request only, the condition that such confirmation by such Rating Agency (only) be obtained for purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of clarity, any such waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any request for such confirmation hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any subsequent request for such Rating Agency confirmation hereunder and the condition for such Rating Agency confirmation pursuant to this Agreement for any subsequent request shall apply regardless of any previous waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in such prior request.

(b)       In the case of any Transfer of a participation interest in any of the Notes, (i) the respective Note Holders’ obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Note Holders shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Lead Securitization Note Holder and any Persons acting on its behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Note Holder in connection with such Note Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Note Holder had not sold such participation interest.

(c)       Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Note Holder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof) which has extended a credit facility to such Note Holder and that is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency (a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 15(c), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Note Holder or any person which Controls such Note that is secured by its Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Note Holder to each other Note Holder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), each other Note Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give such Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Note Holder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) days to cure a default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations to each other Note Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Note Holder shall give to such Note Pledgee

-40-

copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Note Holder; (v) that such other Note Holder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Note Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to each other Note Holder and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Note Holder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Note Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Note Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Note Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Note Holder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Note Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Note Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases each other Note Holder and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Note Holder on account of such other Note Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or such other Note Holder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Note Holder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Note Holders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof which is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Note Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Note Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 15(c) shall remain effective as to any Note Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Note Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(d)       Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Note Holder then such Note Holder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                      The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Note Holder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note requires a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii)                   The Conduit Credit Enhancer is a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)                Such Note Holder pledges its interest in its Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

-41-

(iv)               The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit agree that, if such Note Holder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Note Holder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Note Holder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v)                  Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Note Holder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 16.             Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder. The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 16, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of each other Note Holder. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such person as its agent under this Section 16 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding any Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 15, from and after the date of such assignment. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 15 and this Section 16. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and each other Note Holder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 17.         Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW

-42-

YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW). EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 18.       Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a)       SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION AND ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN RESPECT THEREOF, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE GENERAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF;

(b)       CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)       AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH A PARTY HEREIN SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(d)       AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 19.            Modifications. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Note Holder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Note Holders shall not amend or modify this Agreement without first receiving a written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment or modification will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of its then current ratings of the securities issued in connection with a Securitization; provided that no such confirmation from the Rating Agencies shall be required in connection with a modification (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (ii) to make other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

-43-

Section 20.            Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as provided herein, including without limitation, with respect to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Non-Lead Master Servicers, the Non-Lead Special Servicers and the Non-Lead Trustees, none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Person not a party hereto. Subject to Section 15, Section 16 and the last paragraph of Section 3, each Note Holder may assign or delegate its rights or obligations under this Agreement. Upon any such assignment, the assignee shall be entitled to all rights and benefits of the applicable Note Holder hereunder.

Section 21.           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and the words “executed,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import as used above and elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to this transaction shall include, in addition to manually executed signatures, images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, any electronic sound, symbol, or process, attached to or logically associated with a contract or other record and executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the record). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

Section 22.              Captions. The titles and headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to summarize or otherwise describe the subject matter of the paragraphs and shall not be given any consideration in the construction of this Agreement.

Section 23.             Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable laws, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 24.             Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

Section 25.             Withholding Taxes. (a) If the Lead Securitization Note Holder or the Mortgage Loan Borrower shall be required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder constituting a Non-

-44-

Exempt Person, the Lead Securitization Note Holder, in its capacity as servicer, shall be entitled to do so with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to such Note Holder), provided that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall furnish such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting such Note Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which such Note Holder is subject to tax.

(b)       Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall and hereby agrees to indemnify the Lead Securitization Note Holder against and hold the Lead Securitization Note Holder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payment made to such Note Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by such Note Holder to the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payments made to such Note Holder, it being expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) such Note Holder, upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder and at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(c)       Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) represents (for the benefit of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that neither the Lead Securitization Note Holder nor the Mortgage Loan Borrower is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time as necessary during the term of this Agreement, each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder or Servicer, as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Note Holder substantiating that such Note Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is not obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, (i) if a Note Holder is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (ii) if a Note Holder is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the Mortgage Loan Borrower is treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, such Note Holder shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments) or Form W-8BEN, or successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by such Note Holder, as evidence of such Note Holder’s exemption from the

-45-

withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note or otherwise until the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have furnished to the Lead Securitization Note Holder requested forms, certificates, statements or documents.

Section 26.             Custody of Mortgage Loan Documents. The originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Non-Lead Securitization Notes) (a) prior to the Lead Securitization will be held by the Initial Agent (or a custodian on its behalf) and (b) after the Lead Securitization, will be held by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (in the name of the Trustee and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), in each case, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes.

Section 27.              Cooperation in Securitization.

(a)       Each Note Holder acknowledges that any Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization. In connection with a Securitization and subject to the terms of the preceding sentence, at the request of the related Securitizing Note Holder, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall use reasonable efforts, at such Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, to satisfy, and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to satisfy, the market standards to which such Securitizing Note Holder customarily adheres or that may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with the Securitization, including, entering into (or consenting to, as applicable) any modifications to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Documents and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute such modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents, in any such case, as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies to effect the Securitization; provided, however, that no Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall be required to modify or amend this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Documents (or consent to such modification, as applicable) in connection therewith, if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to or priority of such payments to, such Non-Securitizing Note Holder or (ii) materially increase such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s obligations or materially decrease such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s rights, remedies or protections. In connection with any Securitization, each Non-Securitizing Note Holder agrees to provide for inclusion in any disclosure document relating to such Securitization such information concerning such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note as the related Securitizing Note Holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, and such Non-Securitizing Note Holder covenants and agrees that it shall, at the Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, cooperate with the reasonable requests of each Rating Agency and such Securitizing Note Holder in connection with such Securitization (including, without limitation, reasonably cooperating with the Securitizing Note Holder (without any obligation to make additional representations and warranties) to enable the Securitizing Note Holder to make all necessary certifications and deliver all necessary opinions (including customary securities law opinions) in connection with the Mortgage Loan and such Securitization), as well as in connection with all other matters and the preparation of any offering documents thereof and to review and respond reasonably promptly with respect to any information relating to such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note in any Securitization document. Each Note Holder acknowledges that the information provided by it to a Securitizing Note Holder may be incorporated into the offering documents for the related Securitization. Each Securitizing Note Holder and each Rating Agency

-46-

shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, each Non-Securitizing Note Holder. The Securitizing Note Holder will reasonably cooperate with each Non-Securitizing Note Holder by providing all information reasonably requested that is in the Securitizing Note Holder’s possession in connection with the Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s preparation of disclosure materials in connection with a Securitization.

Upon request, the Securitizing Note Holder shall deliver to each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder drafts of the preliminary and final offering memoranda, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus and any other disclosure documents and the pooling and servicing agreement for the related Securitization and provide reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such documents.

Section 28.            Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be given by (i) facsimile transmission (during business hours) if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (ii) reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid) or (iii) certified United States mail, postage prepaid return receipt requested, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses set forth on Exhibit B hereto, or at such other address as any party shall hereafter inform the other party by written notice given as aforesaid. All written notices so given shall be deemed effective upon receipt.

Prior to Securitization of a Non-Lead Securitization Note (including any New Notes), all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or the related Non-Controlling Note Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) only need to be delivered to the related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative and, when so delivered to the related Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Following Securitization of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or the related Non-Controlling Note Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be delivered to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Special Servicer (who then may forward such items to the party entitled to receive such items as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and, when so delivered to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Special Servicer, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Section 29.              Broker. Each Note Holder represents to each other that no broker was responsible for bringing about this transaction.

-47-

Section 30.              Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a)       The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15 and Section 16;

(b)       The Agent may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

(c)       The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any Note Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(d)       The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(e)       The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 16;

(f)       The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder; and

(g)       The Agent represents and warrants that it is a Qualified Institutional Lender.

Section 31.              Reserved.

Section 32.             Resignation of Agent. The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. The Initial Agent may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of the Initial Agent or any successor thereto prior to such Securitization without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of such Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement, and any successor master servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place thereof without any further notice or other action.

-48-

Section 33.              Resizing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (but subject to the Servicing Standard), for so long as a Note Holder (an “Original Entity”) is the owner of a Note that is not included in a Securitization (each, an “Owned Note”), such Original Entity shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated notes or additional notes (in each case, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of an Owned Note to such New Notes or severing an Owned Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of such Owned Note provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the aggregate principal of such Owned Note prior to such amendments, (ii) all Notes continue to have the same weighted average interest rate as the Notes prior to such amendments, (iii) all Notes pay pro rata and on a pari passu basis (including after a default and in connection with a condemnation or prepayment) and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement, and (iv) the Original Entity holding the New Notes shall notify the Lead Securitization Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing of such modified allocations and principal amounts. Each New Note shall constitute a “Note” hereunder without any further act or deed. If the Lead Securitization Note Holder so requests, the Original Entity holding the New Notes (and any subsequent holder of such Notes) shall execute a confirmation of the continuing applicability of this Agreement to the New Notes, as so modified. Except for the foregoing reallocation or severance and for modifications pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as discussed in Section 5), no Note may be modified or amended without the consent of its holder and the consent of each other Note Holder. In connection with the foregoing (provided the conditions set forth in (i) through (iv) above are satisfied, as certified by the Original Entity, on which certification the Master Servicer can rely), the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and directed to execute amendments to the Mortgage Loan Documents and (if the Original Entity so requests and directs) this Agreement on behalf of any or all of the Note Holders, as applicable, solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal and that each New Note shall be a “Note” hereunder and for the purpose of adding and modifying any definitions related thereto; provided, however, that no such amendment to the Mortgage Loan Documents or this Agreement requested by the Original Entity may require the Master Servicer to violate the Servicing Standard. If the Controlling Note is involved in any resizing contemplated by this Section 33, the applicable Note Holder shall be entitled to designate any one of the related New Notes as the Controlling Note, and the definitions of “Controlling Note” and “Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly. Any New Note that is created in a resizing contemplated by this Section 33 and is not the Controlling Note shall be deemed to be a Non-Controlling Note under this Agreement, the definitions of “Non-Controlling Note” and “Non-Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly to include such New Notes, and the applicable Note Holders of such Non-Controlling Notes shall have the same rights and responsibilities as all other Non-Controlling Note Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, Rating Agency Confirmation shall not be required for any amendments to this Agreement required to facilitate the terms of this Section 33.

(a)               Each Note Holder acknowledges and agrees that, subject in each case to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced from and after the Securitization Date by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the

-14-

Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be obligated to advance monthly payments of principal or interest in respect of any Note other than the Lead Securitization Note (unless such other Note is also included in the Lead Securitization) if such principal or interest is not paid by the Mortgage Loan Borrower but shall be obligated to make Servicing Advances, subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided further that the Special Servicer, when appointed, has the Required Special Servicer Rating from each Rating Agency then rating a Securitization. The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall contain terms and conditions that are customary for securitization transactions involving assets similar to the Mortgage Loan and that are otherwise (i) required by the Code relating to the tax elections of any Securitization Trust, (ii) required by law or changes in any law, rule or regulation or (iii) generally required by the Rating Agencies in connection with the issuance of ratings in securitizations similar to the Securitizations. Each Note Holder acknowledges that each other Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization and agrees that it will, subject to Section 26 hereof, reasonably cooperate with such other Note Holder, at such other Note Holder’s expense, to effect such Securitization. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Note Holder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the appointment of the Master Servicer and the Trustee under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Depositor and the appointment of the Special Servicer by the Controlling Note Holder and agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Note Holder hereby appoints the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee in the Lead Securitization as such Note Holder’s attorney-in-fact to sign any documents reasonably required with respect to the administration and servicing of the Mortgage Loan on its behalf under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (subject at all times to the rights of such Note Holder set forth herein and in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement). In no event shall the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement require any Servicer to enforce the rights of any Note Holder against any other Note Holder or limit a Servicer in enforcing the rights of one Note Holder against any other Note Holder; however, this statement shall not be construed to otherwise limit the rights of one Note Holder with respect to any other Note Holder. Each Servicer shall (i) be required pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to service the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and applicable law, (ii) provide information to each servicer under the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to enable each such servicer to perform its servicing duties, and (iii) not take any action or refrain from taking any action or follow any direction inconsistent with the foregoing.

replacement servicing agreement that does not have the Required Special Servicer Rating for such Rating Agency or, with respect to the Master Servicer, would not otherwise meet the conditions to be a servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement that is being replaced; provided, further, that until a replacement servicing agreement has been entered into, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as if such agreement were still in full force and effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan, by the Servicers in the Lead Securitization or by any Person appointed by the Lead Securitization Note Holder that is a Person meeting the requirements of a master servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and, in the case of the Special Servicer, that meets the Required Special Servicer Rating for each Rating Agency then rating securities of a Non-Lead Securitization.

(b)               The Master Servicer shall be the lead master servicer on the Mortgage Loan, and from time to time it (or the Trustee or the Special Servicer, to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) shall make the following advances, subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement: (i) Servicing Advances on the Mortgage Loan and (ii) P&I Advances on the Lead Securitization Note. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement for a Servicing Advance, first from funds on deposit in the Collection Account and/or the Companion Distribution Account for the Mortgage Loan that (in any case) represent amounts received on or in respect of the Mortgage Loan, and then, in the case of Nonrecoverable Advances, if such funds on deposit in the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account are insufficient, from general collections of the Lead Securitization as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement for Advance Interest on a Servicing Advance (including any Nonrecoverable Advance), in the manner and from the sources provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, including from general collections of the Lead Securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, obtains funds from general collections of the Lead Securitization as a reimbursement of a Servicing Advance that is a Nonrecoverable Advance or any Advance Interest on a Servicing Advance (including any Nonrecoverable Advance), each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Securitization Trust into which a Non-Lead Securitization Note is deposited) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, reimburse the Lead Securitization for its pro rata share of such Nonrecoverable Advance or Advance Interest.

In addition, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including, but not limited to, any Securitization Trust into which a Non-Lead Securitization Note is deposited) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, reimburse the Lead Securitization for such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of any fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer or the Depositor, as applicable, is entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, to the extent amounts on deposit in the Companion Distribution Account or Collection Account in respect of the Mortgage Loan are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts. Each Non-Lead

-16-

Securitization Note Holder shall indemnify (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of the following parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, Asset Representations Reviewer and the Depositor (and any director, officer, employee or agent of any of the foregoing, to the extent such parties are identified as indemnified parties in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in respect of other mortgage loans) (the “Indemnified Parties”) against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan (or, with respect to the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer, incurred in connection with the provision of services for the Mortgage Loan) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Items”) to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Companion Distribution Account or Collection Account in respect of the Mortgage Loan, as applicable, are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for its pro rata share of the insufficiency; provided, however, that each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligation to pay Indemnified Items to the Operating Advisor shall be subject to any limitations and conditions (including limitations and conditions with respect to the timing of such payments and the sources of funds for such payments) as may be set forth from time to time in a related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Any Non-Lead Master Servicer (or if not made by such Non-Lead Master Servicer, the Non-Lead Trustee) may be required to make P&I Advances on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note, from time to time, subject to the terms of the related servicing agreement for the related Securitization (each such agreement, a “Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement”) and this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall each be entitled to make its own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the Lead Securitization Note based on the information that it has on hand and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer and Non-Lead Trustee under the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, and the related Non-Lead Master Servicer or the related Non-Lead Trustee shall be required to notify the other of the amount of its P&I Advance within two Business Days of making such advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable (with respect to the Lead Securitization Note) or a Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or a Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable (with respect to a Non-Lead Securitization Note), determines that a proposed P&I Advance, if made, would be non-recoverable or an outstanding P&I Advance is or would be non-recoverable, or if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, subsequently determines that a proposed Servicing Advance would be non-recoverable or an outstanding Servicing Advance

-17-

is or would be non-recoverable, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee (as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee) or the related Non-Lead Master Servicer or the related Non-Lead Trustee (as provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the related Non-Lead Master Servicer, the related Non-Lead Special Servicer or the related Non-Lead Trustee) shall notify the Master Servicer and the Trustee, or the Non-Lead Master Servicer and the Non-Lead Trustee, as the case may be, of the other Securitization within two Business Days of making such determination. Each of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, a Non-Lead Master Servicer and a Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, will only be entitled to reimbursement for a P&I Advance that becomes non-recoverable first from the Companion Distribution Account from amounts allocable to the Note for which such P&I Advance was made, and then, if funds are insufficient, (i) in the case of the Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the Lead Securitization Trust, pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the Securitization Trust that owns such Non-Lead Securitization Note, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(c)               The Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that it shall cause the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to provide as follows (and to the extent such following provisions are not included in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, they shall be deemed incorporated therein and made a part thereof):

(xi)                           Servicer Termination Events with respect to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall include: (i) solely with respect to the Master Servicer, the failure to timely remit payments to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, which failure continues unremedied for one (1) Business Day following the date on which such payment was to be made; (ii) solely with respect to the Special Servicer, the failure to deposit into any REO Account any amount required to be so deposited within two (2) Business Days after the date such deposit was to be made, or the failure to remit to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account or the Companion Distribution Account, as applicable, any amount required to be so remitted by the Special Servicer within one (1) Business Day after the date such remittance was to be made; (iii) the qualification, downgrade or withdrawal, or placing on “watch status” in contemplation of a rating downgrade or withdrawal of the ratings of any class of certificates issued in connection with a Non-Lead Securitization by the rating agencies rating such securities (and such qualification, downgrade, withdrawal or “watch status” placement shall not have been withdrawn by such rating agencies within sixty (60) days of actual knowledge of such event by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be), and publicly citing servicing concerns with the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, as the sole or a material factor in such rating action; and (iv) the failure to provide to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (if and to the extent required under the related Non-Lead Securitization) reports required under the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, in a timely fashion;

(xiii)                     any late collections received by the Master Servicer from the Mortgage Loan Borrower that are allocable to a Non-Lead Securitization Note or reimbursable to a Non-Lead Master Servicer or a Non-Lead Trustee shall be remitted by the Master Servicer to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer within one (1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified and available funds constituting such late collections; provided, however, that to the extent any such amounts are received after 3:00 p.m. Eastern time on any given Business Day, the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remit such late collections to such Non-Lead Master Servicer within one (1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified and available funds but, in any event, the Master Servicer shall remit such amounts within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified and available funds;

(xvii)                 the Servicing Standard in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall require, among other things, that each Servicer, in servicing the Mortgage Loan, must take into account the interests of each Note Holder; and

(ii)                             each of the Indemnified Parties shall be indemnified (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of such Indemnified Parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) by each Securitization Trust holding a Non-Lead Securitization Note, against any of the Indemnified Items to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Companion Distribution Account are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for its pro rata share of the insufficiency out of general collections in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that such Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement may include limitations and conditions on the payment or reimbursement of Indemnified Items to the Operating Advisor (including limitations and conditions with respect to the timing of such payments or reimbursements and the sources of funds for such payments or reimbursements);

(iii)                          the related Non-Lead Master Servicer, related Non-Lead Trustee or certificate administrator under the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement

-23-

will be required to deliver to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Operating Advisor (i) promptly following Securitization of such Non-Lead Securitization Note, notice of the deposit of such Non-Lead Securitization Note into a Securitization Trust (which notice shall also provide contact information for the related Non-Lead Trustee, the related certificate administrator, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer, the related Non-Lead Special Servicer and the party designated to exercise the rights of the related “Non-Controlling Note Holder” and “Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder” under this Agreement), accompanied by a certified copy of the related executed Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) notice of any subsequent change in the identity of the related Non-Lead Master Servicer or the party designated to exercise the rights of the related “Non-Controlling Note Holder” or “Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder” under this Agreement (together with the relevant contact information); and

Following the Securitization of a Non-Lead Securitization Note (including any New Note), as applicable, all notices, reports, information or other deliverables required to be delivered to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be delivered to the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and Non-Lead Special Servicer (who then may forward such items to the party entitled to receive such items as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and, when so delivered to such Non-Lead Master Servicer and such Non-Lead Special Servicer, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be deemed to have satisfied its delivery obligations with respect to such items hereunder or under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (except where required by this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to deliver items directly to a Non-Lead Depositor or other party to a Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for purposes of compliance with securities laws).

(f)                The Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that, if a Non-Lead Securitization Note is included in a Securitization, and such Non-Lead Securitization is subject to reporting requirements under Regulation AB, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Custodian shall be required to reasonably cooperate with the Non-Lead Asset

-24-

Representations Reviewer in connection with such Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer’s obligations under any Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loan by providing any documents reasonably requested by the Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer or other requesting party in connection with the Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer’s obligations, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian, as the case may be, but in any event excluding any documents known to such the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian to contain information that is proprietary to the related originator or Initial Note Holders or any draft documents or privileged or internal communications. The reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Custodian actually incurred in connection with their compliance with such requests shall be reimbursable by the Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer or, if not paid by the Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer, the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder.

Section 3.                Priority of Payments.

(a)               Each Note shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Note shall have priority or preference over any portion of any other Note or security therefor. All amounts tendered by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or otherwise available for payment on or with respect to or in connection with the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property or amounts realized as proceeds thereof, whether received in the form of Periodic Payments, the Balloon Payment, Liquidation Proceeds, proceeds under any guaranty, letter of credit or other collateral or instrument securing the Mortgage Loan or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds (other than proceeds, awards or settlements to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgage Loan Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents) shall be applied by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its designee) to the Notes on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis; provided, that (x) all amounts for required reserves or escrows required by the Mortgage Loan Documents to be held as reserves or escrows or received as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of property protection expenses or Servicing Advances then due and payable or reimbursable to the Trustee or any Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall be applied to the extent set forth in, and in accordance with the terms of, the Mortgage Loan Documents; and (y) all amounts that are then due, payable or reimbursable to any Servicer, with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and any other compensation payable to it thereunder (including without limitation, any additional expenses of the Trust Fund relating to the Mortgage Loan (but subject to the second paragraph of Section 5(d) hereof) reimbursable to, or payable by, such parties and any Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees, Workout Fees and Penalty Charges (to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph) but excluding (i) any P&I Advances (and interest thereon) on the Lead Securitization Note, which shall be reimbursed in accordance with Section 2(b) hereof, and (ii) any Master Servicing Fees due to the Master Servicer in excess of the Non-Lead Securitization Note’s pro rata share of that portion of such servicing fees calculated at the “primary servicing fee rate” applicable to the Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, which such excess shall not be subject to the allocation provisions of this Section 3) shall be payable in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

-25-

For clarification purposes, Penalty Charges paid on each Note shall first, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer for any interest accrued on any Servicing Advances and reimbursement of any Servicing Advances in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, second, be used to reduce the respective amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, Trustee, the Non-Lead Master Servicer or the Non-Lead Trustee for any interest accrued on any P&I Advance made with respect to such Note by such party (if and as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable), third, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay additional expenses of the Trust Fund (including, if not paid by the Mortgage Loan Borrower, Special Servicing Fees, unpaid Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan (as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and finally, shall be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Any proceeds received from the sale of the primary servicing rights with respect to the Mortgage Loan shall be remitted, promptly upon receipt thereof, to the Note Holders on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis. Any proceeds received by any Note Holder from the sale of master servicing rights with respect to its Note shall be for its own account.

Section 4.                Workout. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Securitization Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal priorities of each Note as described in Section 3.

Section 5.                Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)               Subject to this Agreement (including but not limited to Section 5(c)) and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Controlling Note Holder, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy, and no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever except as explicitly set forth herein with respect to the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this

-26-

Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any right to, and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) the rights, if any, that such Note Holder has to, (i) call or cause the Lead Securitization Note Holder to call an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Securitization Note Holder to file any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Note Holder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or its obligation to follow the Servicing Standard (in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or any liability for failure to do so).

Each Note Holder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder), upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan to sell the Notes together as notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and shall require that all offers be submitted to the Special Servicer in writing. Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan shall be determined by the Special Servicer, if the highest offeror is a Person other than an Interested Person, and by the Trustee, if the highest offeror is an Interested Person. Absent an offer at least equal to the Purchase Price, no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two other offers are received from independent third parties. In determining whether any offer from an Interested Person received represents a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall rely on the most recent Appraisal (or update of such Appraisal) conducted in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the preceding nine (9)-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. In determining whether any such offer from a Person other than an Interested Person constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal or updated Appraisal or narrative appraisal that it may have obtained within the prior nine (9) months pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) among other factors, the period and amount of the occupancy level and physical condition of the Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. Except as provided in the following paragraph, the cost of any Appraisal will be covered by, and will be reimbursable as, a Servicing Advance by the Master Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan without the written consent of each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (provided that such consent is not required if the related Non-Lead Securitization Note is held by a Borrower Party) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder: (a) at least 15 Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer

-27-

in connection with any such proposed sale, (c) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the servicing file reasonably requested by such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder that are material to the sale price of the Mortgage Loan and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Lead Securitization Note Holder Representative) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided, however, that such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder may waive any delivery or timing requirements set forth in this sentence only for itself. Subject to the foregoing, each of the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Non-Controlling Note Holders and the Non-Controlling Note Holder Representatives shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Mortgage Loan (unless such Person is a Borrower Party).

Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the Mortgage Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan. If the Trustee designates such third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person.

Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of the related Non-Lead Securitization Note. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of Lead Securitization Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver the original related Non-Lead Securitization Note, endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to sell the Non-Lead Securitization Notes, and the obligations of the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders to execute and deliver instruments or deliver the Non-Lead Securitization Notes upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Securitization Note is repurchased by the Initial Note Holder from the trust fund established under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by such

-28-

Initial Note Holder with respect to the Lead Securitization Note or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by the related Initial Note Holder with respect to the Lead Securitization Note upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization. The preceding sentence shall not be construed to grant to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the benefit of any representation or warranty made by such Initial Note Holder or any document delivery obligation imposed on such Initial Note Holder under any mortgage loan purchase and sale agreement, instrument of transfer or other document or instrument that may be executed or delivered by such Initial Note Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization.

(b)               The administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan (or to the extent otherwise provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), by the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, taking into account the interests of each Note Holder. The Note Holders agree to be bound by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Note Holder described hereunder may be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder. The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not be amended in any manner that may materially and adversely affect any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in its capacity as a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder without such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s prior written consent. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (unless it is a Borrower Party) shall be a third-party beneficiary to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to its rights as specifically provided for therein.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be required (i) to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Representative pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event or effectively equivalent period) with respect to any Major Decision or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder Representative), within the same time frame it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Representative (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event or effectively equivalent period, but subject to any limitations in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement regarding providing such information to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or those who have certain

-29-

relationships with the Mortgage Loan Borrower) and (ii) to consult with each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decision or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative); provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall no longer be obligated to consult with such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) (unless, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the consultation rights of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) may make any Major Decision or any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders. In no event shall the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by a Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative).

In addition to the consultation rights of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to attend (in person or telephonically, in the discretion of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) annual meetings with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf), upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.

(d)               If any Note is included as an asset of a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a “REMIC”), within the meaning of Section 860D(a) of the Code, then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such

-30-

property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interest of the pro rata share of each Note Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Note Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC which includes the Notes (or any portion thereof). Each Note Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected by compliance with any REMIC provisions in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan.

Anything herein or in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if one of the Notes is included in a REMIC and the other is not, such other Note Holder shall not be required to reimburse such Note Holder or any other Person for payment of (i) any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to the other Note Holder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

Section 6.                Rights of the Controlling Note Holder and Non-Controlling Note Holders.

(a)               The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Controlling Note Holder Representative”). The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Note Holder Representative. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person (other than a Borrower Party), including, without limitation, the Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Note Holder, any Affiliate of the Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party. No such Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Note Holder. No Servicer, Certificate Administrator or Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until the Controlling Note Holder has notified each Servicer, Certificate Administrator and Trustee of such appointment and, if the Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative provides each

-31-

Servicer, Certificate Administrator and Trustee with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment (and such parties will be entitled to rely on such notice), an address and facsimile number for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and facsimile numbers). The Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to any Servicer, Certificate Administrator and Trustee. The Controlling Note Holder agrees to inform each such Servicer or Trustee of the then-current Controlling Note Holder Representative.

Neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder, in such capacity, will have any liability to the other Note Holders or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or breach of this Agreement. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder (whether acting in place of the Controlling Note Holder Representative when no Controlling Note Holder Representative shall have been appointed hereunder or otherwise exercising any right, power or privilege granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over the other Note Holder, and that the Controlling Note Holder Representative or Controlling Note Holder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of other Note Holders and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or breach of this Agreement on the part of the Controlling Note Holder Representative or the Controlling Note Holder, as the case may be, acting in such capacity, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Controlling Note Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

(b)               Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative (other than a Borrower Party) in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (with respect to such Note Holder, the “Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative”). All of the provisions relating to the Controlling Note Holder and the Controlling Note Holder Representative set forth in Section 6(a) shall apply to each Non-Controlling Note Holder and its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative mutatis mutandis.

Each Non-Controlling Note Holder (if it is not the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall provide notice of its identity and contact information (including any change thereof) to the Trustee, Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer; provided, that each Initial Note Holder shall be deemed to have provided such notice on the

-32-

date hereof. The Trustee, Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such identity and contact information received by it and shall not be liable in respect of any deliveries hereunder sent in reliance thereon. The Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative with respect to the Non-Controlling Notes, as of the date of this Agreement and until the Lead Securitization Note Holder (and the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer) is notified otherwise, shall be the Initial Note A-2 Holder, with respect to Note A-2.

(c)               The Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to exercise the rights and powers granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder and the rights and powers granted to the “Directing Holder,” “Controlling Class Certificateholder,” “Controlling Class Representative” or similar party under, and as defined in, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loan. In addition, the Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters related to the Mortgage Loan if it is a “Specially Serviced Loan” (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, and, except as set forth below, (i) the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to implement any Major Decision unless it has obtained the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and (ii) the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to consent to the Master Servicer’s implementing any Major Decision nor will the Special Servicer itself be permitted to implement any Major Decision as to which the Controlling Note Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the written recommendation and analysis and such additional information requested by the Controlling Note Holder, and reasonably available to the Special Servicer, as may be necessary in order to make a judgment with respect to such Major Decision. The Controlling Note Holder may also direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Note Holder may deem advisable.

If the Controlling Note Holder fails to notify the Special Servicer of its approval or disapproval of any proposed Major Decision within ten (10) Business Days after delivery to the Controlling Note Holder by the applicable Servicer of written notice of a proposed Major Decision together with any information requested by the Controlling Note Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Controlling Note Holder in order to make a judgment, then upon the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period, such Major Decision shall be deemed to have been approved by the Controlling Note Holder.

In the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any other matter requiring consent of the Controlling Note Holder is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders (as a collective whole) and the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Controlling Note Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Controlling Note Holder’s response.

-33-

No objection, consent, direction or advice contemplated by the preceding paragraphs may, and neither the Master Servicer nor Special Servicer shall take any action that would (i) require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of the Mortgage Loan Documents, applicable law, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, this Agreement, the REMIC Provisions or the Master Servicer or Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax on any Trust REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or cause any REMIC Pool to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes, (iii) expose the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Operating Advisor, the Depositor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trust or the Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, managers, employees or agents to any claim, suit, or liability for which this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement does not provide indemnification to such party or expose any such party to prosecution for a criminal offense, (iv) materially expand the scope of responsibilities of any of the Master Servicer, Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, under this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Section 7.                Appointment of Special Servicer. Subject to the conditions and requirements set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer in lieu thereof. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to the other Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the then existing Special Servicer and other parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, a Rating Agency Confirmation, but only if required by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), and delivering to each Non-Controlling Note Holder a Rating Agency Confirmation with respect to any rated securities issued and outstanding under the related Securitization if such replacement Special Servicer does not meet the Required Special Servicer Rating with respect to those Rating Agencies rating the securities of any Securitization related to a Non-Controlling Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the Non-Controlling Note Holders of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid. If a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer has occurred that affects a Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is

-34-

no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Note Holders acknowledge and agree that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at a Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non-Controlling Note Holder. Upon the occurrence of such a Servicer Termination Event with respect to the Master Servicer that affects a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, and the Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Trustee or the Master Servicer shall, upon the direction of the affected Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, require the appointment of a subservicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Non-Controlling Note Holder that directs the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Section 8.                Payment Procedure.

(a)               The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf), in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Collection Account and/or Companion Distribution Account pursuant to and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deposit such amounts to the applicable account within two (2) Business Days after receipt by it of properly identified funds by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

(b)               If the Lead Securitization Note Holder determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of any Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to the Lead Securitization Note Holder, a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Note Holder repay to the Lead Securitization Note Holder any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have theretofore distributed to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have been required to pay to any Mortgage Loan Borrower, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or such other Person with respect thereto.

-35-

(c)               If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Note Holder makes any payment to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder before the Lead Securitization Note Holder has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Note Holder does not receive the corresponding payment within five (5) Business Days of its payment to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(d)               Each Note Holder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it shall promptly remit such excess to the applicable Note Holder, subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder under the Mortgage Loan. A Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 9.                Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder shall have no liability to any other Note Holder with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Note Holder; provided, that, notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, each Servicer will nevertheless be subject to the obligations and standards (including the Servicing Standard) set forth in the related Securitization Servicing Agreement.

The Note Holders acknowledge that, subject to the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Note Holder may have under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) shall have no liability whatsoever to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with such Lead Securitization Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Note Holder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, however, that the Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 10.            Bankruptcy. Subject to Section 5(c), each Note Holder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder

-36-

further agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder, and not any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. The Note Holders hereby appoint the Lead Securitization Note Holder as their agent, and grant to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by the Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 11.            Representations of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement is within its corporate powers, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and does not contravene such Note Holder’s charter or any law or contractual restriction binding upon such Note Holder, and that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Note Holder enforceable against such Note Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, in good standing and in possession of all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that (a) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Note Holder, (b) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Note Holder have been obtained or made and (c) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, there is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against such Note Holder, an adverse outcome of which would materially and adversely affect its performance under this Agreement.

Section 12.            No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between the Note Holders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have no obligation whatsoever to offer to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a

-37-

participation interest in any future loans originated by the Lead Securitization Note Holder or its Affiliates and if the Lead Securitization Note Holder chooses to offer to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future mortgage loans originated by the Lead Securitization Note Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as the Lead Securitization Note Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. No Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from the Lead Securitization Note Holder a participation interest in any future loans originated by the Lead Securitization Note Holder or its Affiliates.

Section 13.            Other Business Activities of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder acknowledges that the other Note Holder or its Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, a Borrower Party, any entity that is a holder of debt secured by direct or indirect ownership interests in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any entity that is a holder of a preferred equity interest in the Mortgage Loan Borrower, and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to any such party and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 14.            Sale of the Notes.

(a)               Except as contemplated by the second following sentence, each Note Holder agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its respective Note (a “Transfer”) except to a Qualified Institutional Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Promptly after the Transfer (other than a Transfer to a Securitization Trust), the non-transferring Note Holder(s) shall be provided with (x) a representation from a transferee or the applicable Note Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender (except in the case of a Transfer in accordance with the immediately following sentence) and (y) a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 15. If a Note Holder intends to Transfer its respective Note, or any portion thereof, to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, it must first (a) obtain the consent of each non-transferring Note Holder and (b) if such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency then rating the securities of such Securitization Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the non-transferring Note Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, until a Rating Agency Confirmation is obtained, no Note Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note (or a participation interest in such Note) to a Borrower Party and any such Transfer made without the prior consent of the non-transferring Note Holder and Rating Agency Confirmation (if such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust), shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, transfers of any securities backed by a Note held in a Securitization Trust will not be subject to the foregoing requirement and such transfers shall be governed by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or any related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable. The transferring Note Holder agrees that it shall pay the expenses of the non-transferring Note Holder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,

-38-

the Trustee and any Controlling Note Holder or Controlling Note Holder Representative) and all expenses relating to any Rating Agency Confirmation in connection with any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Note Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of the other Note Holder or of any other Person or having to provide any Rating Agency Confirmation, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in a Note. None of the provisions of this Section 14(a) shall apply in the case of (1) a sale of all of the Notes together, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or (2) a transfer by the Special Servicer, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, of the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan to a single member limited liability or limited partnership, 100% of the equity interest in which is owned directly or indirectly, through one or more single member limited liability companies or limited partnerships, by the Lead Securitization Trust.

(b)               In the case of any Transfer of a participation interest in any of the Notes, (i) the respective Note Holders’ obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Note Holders shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Lead Securitization Note Holder and any Persons acting on its behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Note Holder in connection with such Note Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Note Holder had not sold such participation interest.

(c)               Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Note Holder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than a Borrower Party) which has extended a credit facility to such Note Holder and that is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency (or, if not rated by an applicable Rating Agency, an equivalent or higher rating from any two of Fitch, Moody’s and S&P) (a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 14(c), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Note Holder or any person which Controls such Note that is secured by its Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Note Holder to any other Note Holder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), such other Note Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Note Holder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) days to cure a default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations to any other Note Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Note Holder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Note Holder;

-39-

(v) that such other Note Holder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Note Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to the other Note Holders and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Note Holder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Note Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Note Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Note Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Note Holder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Note Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Note Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases the other Note Holders and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Note Holder on account of such other Note Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or such other Note Holder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. A Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Note Holder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Note Holders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than a Borrower Party that is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Note Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Note Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 14(c) shall remain effective as to any Note Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Note Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(d)               Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Note Holder then such Note Holder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Note Holder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note requires a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii)                           The Conduit Credit Enhancer is a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)                          Such Note Holder pledges its interest in its Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

(iv)                         The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit agree that, if such Note Holder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to

-40-

refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Note Holder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Note Holder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v)                            Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Note Holder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 15.            Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder. The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 15, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of the other Note Holder. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such person as its agent under this Section 15 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding any Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 14, from and after the date of such assignment. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 14 and this Section 15. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and the other Note Holders against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 16.            Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL

-41-

OBLIGATIONS LAW). EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 17.            Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a)               SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION AND ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN RESPECT THEREOF, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE GENERAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF;

(b)               CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)               AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH A PARTY HEREIN SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(d)               AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 18.            Modifications. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Note Holder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Note Holders shall not amend or modify this Agreement without first obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency then rating any securities of any Securitization; provided that no such Rating Agency Confirmation shall be required in connection with a modification (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (ii) with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, to make provisions in this Agreement consistent with other provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with the creation of New Notes pursuant to Section 32).

Section 19.            Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their

-42-

respective successors and assigns. Except as provided herein, including without limitation, with respect to the Trustee, Certificate Administrator, Master Servicer and Special Servicer and the Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee, none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Person not a party hereto. Subject to Section 14 and Section 15, each Note Holder may assign or delegate its rights or obligations under this Agreement. Upon any such assignment, the assignee shall be entitled to all rights and benefits of the applicable Note Holder hereunder.

Section 20.           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and the words “executed,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import as used above and elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to this transaction shall include, in addition to manually executed signatures, images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf,” “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, any electronic sound, symbol, or process, attached to or logically associated with a contract or other record and executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the record). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

Section 21.           Captions. The titles and headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to summarize or otherwise describe the subject matter of the paragraphs and shall not be given any consideration in the construction of this Agreement.

Section 22.           Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable laws, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 23.           Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

Section 24.           Withholding Taxes. (a) If the Lead Securitization Note Holder or the Mortgage Loan Borrower shall be required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder constituting a Non-Exempt Person, the Lead Securitization Note Holder, in its capacity as

-43-

servicer, shall be entitled to do so with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to such Note Holder), provided that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall furnish such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting such Note Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which such Note Holder is subject to tax.

(b)               Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall and hereby agrees to indemnify the Lead Securitization Note Holder against and hold the Lead Securitization Note Holder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payment made such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder to the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payments made to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, it being expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder and at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(c)               Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder represents to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (for the benefit of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that neither the Lead Securitization Note Holder nor the Mortgage Loan Borrower is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time as necessary during the term of this Agreement, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder or Servicer, as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Note Holder substantiating that such Note Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is not obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, (i) if a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (ii) if a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the Mortgage Loan Borrower is treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, such Note Holder shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Internal Revenue

-44-

Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments) or Form W-8BEN, or successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by such Note Holder, as evidence of such Note Holder’s exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note or otherwise until the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have furnished to the Lead Securitization Note Holder requested forms, certificates, statements or documents.

Section 25.            Custody of Mortgage Loan Documents. On and after the closing of the Lead Securitization, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the originals of the Non-Lead Securitization Notes) shall be held by the Trustee through a duly appointed custodian therefor, in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes; provided that if the First Securitization is not the Note A-1 Securitization, (i) the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Notes not being deposited into the First Securitization) shall be transferred to and held by the Trustee (of the First Securitization) through a duly appointed custodian therefor under the First Securitization, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes, until the closing of the Note A-1 Securitization, on which date, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Notes not being deposited into the Note A-1 Securitization) shall be transferred to and held in the name of the Trustee (by a duly appointed custodian therefor) under the Note A-1 PSA on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes; and (ii) all Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Notes not being deposited into the Note A-1 Securitization) shall not be recorded or filed to reflect the name of the trustee under the Securitization Servicing Agreement for the First Securitization (except to the extent specifically provided for in the Securitization Servicing Agreement for the First Securitization).

Section 26.            Cooperation in Securitization. Each Note Holder acknowledges that any Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization. In connection with a Securitization and subject to the terms of the preceding sentence, at the request of the related Securitizing Note Holder, the related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall use reasonable efforts, at such Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, to satisfy, and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to satisfy, the market standards to which such Securitizing Note Holder customarily adheres or that may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with such Securitization, including, entering into (or consenting to, as applicable) any modifications to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Documents and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute such modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents, in any such case, as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies to effect such Securitization; provided, that no Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall be required to modify or amend this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Documents (or consent to such modification, as applicable) in connection therewith, if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to or priority of such payments to, such Non-Securitizing Note Holder or (ii) materially increase such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s obligations or materially decrease such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s rights, remedies or protections. In connection with any Securitization, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall provide for inclusion in any

-45-

disclosure document relating to such Securitization such information concerning such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note as the related Securitizing Note Holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, and such Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall, at such Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, cooperate with the reasonable requests of each Rating Agency and such Securitizing Note Holder in connection with such Securitization (including, without limitation, reasonably cooperating with such Securitizing Note Holder (without any obligation to make additional representations and warranties) to enable such Securitizing Note Holder to make all necessary certifications and deliver all necessary opinions (including customary securities law opinions) in connection with the Mortgage Loan and such Securitization), as well as in connection with all other matters and the preparation of any offering documents thereof and to review and respond reasonably promptly with respect to any information relating to such Note Holder and its Note in any Securitization document. Each Note Holder acknowledges that in connection with any Securitization, the information provided by it in its capacity as a Non-Securitizing Note Holder to the related Securitizing Note Holder may be incorporated into the offering documents for such Securitization. Each Securitizing Note Holder and each Rating Agency shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, each Non-Securitizing Note Holder.

Upon request, each Securitizing Note Holder shall deliver to the Non-Securitizing Note Holder drafts of the preliminary and final offering memoranda, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus and any other disclosure documents and the pooling and servicing agreement for the Securitization of such Securitizing Note Holder’s Note and provide reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such documents.

Section 27.            Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be given by (i)  facsimile transmission or e-mail (during business hours) if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (ii) reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid) or (iii) certified United States mail, postage prepaid return receipt requested, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses set forth on Exhibit B hereto, or at such other address as any party shall hereafter inform the other party by written notice given as aforesaid. All written notices so given shall be deemed effective upon receipt.

Section 28.           Broker. Each Note Holder represents to each other that no broker was responsible for bringing about this transaction.

Section 29.            Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a)               The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any representation made or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 14 and Section 15;

(b)               The Agent may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

-46-

(c)               The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any Note Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(d)               The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(e)               The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any representation made or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15;

(f)                The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder; and

(g)               The Agent represents and warrants that it is a Qualified Institutional Lender.

Section 30.             Reserved.

Section 31.            Resignation of Agent. The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. WFB, as Initial Agent, may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of a Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of WFB or the master servicer of the First Securitization, as applicable, without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of such Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement, and any successor master servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place thereof without any further notice or other action.

Section 32.            Resizing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for so long as any Note Holder or an affiliate thereof (each, an “Original Entity”) is the owner of a Note that is not included in a Securitization (each, an “Owned Note”), such Original Entity shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated notes or additional notes (in either case, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of the Owned Note to such New Notes; or severing the Owned Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the Owned Note provided that (i) the

-47-

aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the aggregate principal of the Owned Note prior to such amendments, (ii) all Notes continue to have the same weighted average interest rate as the Notes prior to such amendments, (iii) all Notes pay pro rata and on a pari passu basis and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement, and (iv) the Original Entity holding the New Notes shall notify the Lead Securitization Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing of such modified allocations and principal amounts. Except for the foregoing reallocation and for modifications pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as discussed in Section 5), no Note may be modified or amended without the consent of its holder and the consent of the holder of the other Notes. In connection with the foregoing (provided the conditions set forth in (i) through (iv) above are satisfied), the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and directed to execute amendments to the Mortgage Loan Documents and this Agreement on behalf of any or all of the Note Holders, as applicable, solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal. If the Lead Securitization Note Holder so requests, the Original Entity holding the New Notes shall (a) represent that the conditions set forth in (i) through (iv) have been satisfied and/or (b) deliver a confirmation of the continued applicability of this Agreement to the New Notes. If the Controlling Note is involved in any resizing contemplated by this Section 32, the applicable Note Holder shall be entitled to designate any one of the related New Notes as the Controlling Note, and the definitions of “Controlling Note” and “Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly. Any New Note that is created in a resizing contemplated by this Section 32 and that is not the Controlling Note shall be deemed to be a Non-Controlling Note under this Agreement, the definitions of “Non-Controlling Note” and “Non-Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly to include such New Notes, and the applicable Note Holders of such Non-Controlling Notes shall have the same rights and responsibilities as all other Non-Controlling Note Holders.

Each Note Holder acknowledges and agrees that, subject in each case to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced from and after the Lead Securitization Date by the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be obligated to advance monthly payments of principal or interest in respect of any Note other than the Lead Securitization Note(s) if such principal or interest is not paid by the Mortgage Loan Borrower but shall be obligated to make Servicing Advances subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided, further, that, when appointed, the Special Servicer must have the Required Special Servicer Rating from each Rating Agency then rating a Securitization.

The Note Holders acknowledge that at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall have no further obligation to make P&I Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan.

(b)               The Master Servicer shall be the lead master servicer on the Mortgage Loan, and from time to time it (or the Trustee or the Special Servicer, to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) shall make the following advances, subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement: (i) Servicing Advances on the Mortgage Loan and (ii) P&I Advances on the Lead Securitization Note(s).

The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement for interest on a Servicing Advance (including any Servicing Advance that is any Nonrecoverable Advance) at the Reimbursement Rate in the manner and from the sources provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, including from general collections of the Lead Securitization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, obtains funds from general collections of the Lead Securitization as a reimbursement for a Servicing Advance that is a Nonrecoverable Advance or

In addition, any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including, but not limited to, any Securitization Trust into which the applicable Non-Lead Securitization Note is deposited) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pay or reimburse the Lead Securitization for such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of any fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor, the Depositor or CREFC^®, as applicable, is entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, to the extent amounts on deposit in the related Companion Distribution Account and, to the extent of funds related to the Mortgage Loan, the Collection Account, are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees to indemnify (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of the following parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and the Operating Advisor (and any director, officer, member, manager, employee or agent of any of the foregoing, to the extent such parties are identified as indemnified parties in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in respect of other mortgage loans) (the “Indemnified Parties”) against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan (or, with respect to the Operating Advisor, incurred in connection with the provision of services for the Mortgage Loan) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Items”) to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the related Companion Distribution Account and, to the extent of funds related to the Mortgage Loan, the Collection Account, are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for its pro rata share of the insufficiency; provided that a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s duty to pay, if any, Indemnified Items to the Operating Advisor shall be subject to any limitations and conditions (including limitations and conditions with respect to the timing of such payments and the sources of funds for such payments) as may be set forth from time to time in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the Non-Lead Operating Advisor.

Any Non-Lead Master Servicer (or Non-Lead Trustee (if not made by such Non-Lead Master Servicer)) may be required to make P&I Advances on the respective Non-Lead Securitization Note, from time to time, subject to the terms of the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall each be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the Lead

The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, and any Non-Lead Master Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, shall each be required to notify the other of the amount of its P&I Advance within two Business Days of making such advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable (with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s)) or a Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable (with respect to a Non-Lead Securitization Note), determines that a proposed P&I Advance, if made, would be non-recoverable or an outstanding P&I Advance is or would be non-recoverable, or if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, subsequently determines that a proposed Servicing Advance would be non-recoverable or an outstanding Servicing Advance is or would be non-recoverable, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee (as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee) or such Non-Lead Master Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee (as provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by a Non-Lead Master Servicer, a Non-Lead Special Servicer or a Non-Lead Trustee) shall notify the Master Servicer and the Trustee, or the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Trustee, as the case may be, of such other Securitization within two Business Days of making such determination. Each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee, any Non-Lead Master Servicer and any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, shall only be entitled to reimbursement for a P&I Advance that becomes non-recoverable (and interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate) first from the related Companion Distribution Account from amounts allocable to the Note for which such P&I Advance was made, and then, if such funds are insufficient, (i) in the case of the Lead Securitization Note(s), from general collections of the Lead Securitization Trust, pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of a Non-Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the related Securitization Trust, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(iv)                   Servicer Termination Events with respect to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall include the failure to provide to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (if and to the extent required under the related Non-Lead Securitization) reports required under the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, in a timely fashion that allows the depositor for such Non-Lead Securitization to timely satisfy all filing requirements under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder in connection with such Non-Lead Securitization.

Section 3.                Priority of Payments. Each Note shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Note shall have priority or preference over any portion of any other Note or security therefor. All amounts tendered by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or otherwise available for payment on or with respect to or in connection with the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property or amounts realized as proceeds thereof, whether received in the form of Scheduled Payments, the Balloon Payment, Liquidation Proceeds, proceeds under any guaranty, letter of credit or other

  -24-  

 

collateral or instrument securing the Mortgage Loan, Condemnation Proceeds, or Insurance Proceeds (other than proceeds, awards or settlements to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgage Loan Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to the extent permitted by the REMIC Provisions), shall be applied by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its designee) to the Notes on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis; provided, that (x) all amounts for required reserves or escrows required by the Mortgage Loan Documents (to the extent and in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents) to be held as reserves or escrows or received as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of property protection expenses or Servicing Advances then due and payable or reimbursable to the Trustee or any Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall be applied to the extent set forth in, and in accordance with the terms of, the Mortgage Loan Documents; and (y) all amounts that are then due, payable or reimbursable to any Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and any other additional compensation payable to it thereunder (including without limitation, any additional trust fund expenses under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the Mortgage Loan (but subject to the second paragraph of Section 5(d) hereof) reimbursable to, or payable by, such parties and any Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees, Workout Fees, Penalty Charges (to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph), but excluding (i) any P&I Advances (and interest thereon) on the Lead Securitization Note(s), which shall be reimbursed in accordance with Section 2(b) hereof, and (ii) any servicing fees due to the Master Servicer in excess of each Non-Lead Securitization Note’s pro rata share of that portion of such servicing fees calculated at the “primary servicing fee rate” applicable to the Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, which such excess shall not be subject to the allocation provisions of this Section 3) shall be payable in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

For clarification purposes, Penalty Charges (or any analogous term as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) paid on each Note shall first, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer for any interest accrued on any Servicing Advances and reimbursement of any Servicing Advances in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, second, be used to reduce the respective amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, Trustee, any Non-Lead Master Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, for any interest accrued on any P&I Advance made with respect to such Note by such party (if and as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or applicable Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable), third, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay additional trust fund expenses under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including Special Servicing Fees, unpaid Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan (as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and finally, with respect to any remaining amount of Penalty Charges, be distributed (i) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to the Lead Securitization Note(s), be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to each Non-Lead Securitization Note, be paid, (x) prior to the securitization of such Note, to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and (y) following

  -25-  

 

the securitization of such Note, to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Any proceeds received by any Note Holder from the sale of master servicing rights with respect to its Note shall be for its own account. Any Note Holder that receives proceeds from the sale of the primary servicing rights with respect to the entire Mortgage Loan (the “Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds”) shall remit to the other Note Holders, promptly upon receipt thereof, such amounts as are required such that each Note Holder receives its pro rata share of such proceeds on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if a Note is held by a Securitization Trust at a time when its Note Holder would be entitled to receive any amount under such preceding sentence, such amount shall be remitted to the Person that was the Note Holder of such Note immediately prior to the transfer of such Note to the depositor for such Securitization. On and after the Lead Securitization Date, if the Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds (or any portion thereof) are required to be repaid to the Master Servicer, each Person that received its pro rata share of such Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds in its capacity as a Note Holder as contemplated by the two preceding sentences (each such Person, a “Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds Recipient”) shall be obligated to pay the Master Servicer its pro rata share of the Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds (or portion thereof) required to be repaid to such Master Servicer; provided, however, that such obligation shall remain an obligation of such Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds Recipient notwithstanding any transfer of the related Note(s) (and the related rights under this Agreement) to a subsequent Note Holder absent an explicit written assumption of such obligation which assumption specifies this last paragraph of Section 3 of this Agreement.

Section 4.                Workout. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Securitization Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal priorities of each Note as described in Section 3.

Section 5.                Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)               Subject to this Agreement (including but not limited to Sections 2(a) and 5(c)) and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on its behalf) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy, and no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever except as explicitly set forth herein with respect to the

  -26-  

 

Lead Securitization Note Holder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any right to, and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) the rights, if any, that such Note Holder has to, (i) call, or cause the Lead Securitization Note Holder to call, an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing, or causing the Lead Securitization Note Holder to file, any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on its behalf) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Note Holder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or its obligation to follow the Servicing Standard (in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or any liability for failure to do so).

Each Note Holder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder), upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan, to sell the Notes together as notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. In connection with any such sale, the Special Servicer shall sell the Notes together as notes evidencing one whole loan and shall require that all offers be submitted to the Trustee in writing. Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan shall be determined by the Special Servicer (unless the offeror is an Interested Person, in which case the Trustee shall make such determination); provided, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two bona fide other offers are received from independent third parties. In determining whether any offer received represents a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the preceding nine (9)-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. The Trustee shall select the appraiser conducting any such new Appraisal. In determining whether any such offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall instruct the appraiser to take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal or updated Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the affected Mortgage Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of the Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. The Trustee may conclusively rely on the opinion of an Independent appraiser or other Independent expert in real estate matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the Mortgage Loan that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, and that has been retained by the Trustee at the expense of the Holders in connection with making such determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan without the written consent of each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (provided that such consent is not required with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note that

  -27-  

 

is held by a Borrower Party) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder: (a) at least 15 Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File requested by such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder that are material to the sale price of the Mortgage Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder or the Controlling Note Holder, as applicable) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale. Subject to the foregoing, each Note Holder or its Note Holder Representative shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Mortgage Loan (unless such Person is a Borrower Party).

Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the Mortgage Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan. If the Trustee designates such third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person.

Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of its Note. Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of Lead Securitization Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver any related original documentation evidencing its Note (endorsed in blank if necessary) to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to sell any Non-Lead Securitization Note, and the obligations of any other Note Holder to execute and deliver instruments or deliver the related Note upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Securitization Note(s) are repurchased by the holder(s) of such Lead Securitization Note(s) that sold such Lead Securitization Note(s) into such Securitization from the trust fund established

  -28-  

 

under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s) or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s) upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization. The preceding sentence shall not be construed to grant to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the benefit of any representation or warranty made by the holder(s) of the Lead Securitization Note(s) that sold such Lead Securitization Note(s) into the Lead Securitization or any document delivery obligation imposed on such Person under any mortgage loan purchase and sale agreement, instrument of transfer or other document or instrument that may be executed or delivered by such Person in connection with the Lead Securitization.

(b)               The administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) (or to the extent otherwise provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), by the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, taking into account the interests of each Note Holder. The Note Holders agree to be bound by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Note Holder described hereunder may be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to the extent set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not be amended in any manner that may materially and adversely affect any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in its capacity as Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder without such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s prior written consent. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (unless it is a Borrower Party) shall be a third-party beneficiary to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to its rights as specifically provided for therein.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall (i) provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Note Holder, as applicable, pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, to each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its Note Holder Representative), within the same time frame it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) use reasonable efforts to consult with each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) requests consultation with respect to any such Major

  -29-  

 

Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative); provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall no longer be obligated to consult with such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), whether or not such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the non-binding consultation rights of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders. In no event shall the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by a Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative).

In addition to the non-binding consultation rights provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to attend annual meetings (which may be held telephonically) with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf), upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.

(d)               If any Note is included as an asset of a REMIC, then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interest of the pro rata share of each Note Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Note Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of

  -30-  

 

the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC which includes the Notes (or any portion thereof) , or would otherwise violate any REMIC Provisions applicable to a REMIC that holds any Note (or any portion thereof). Each Note Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected by compliance with any REMIC Provisions in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan. Any costs and expenses of compliance with this Section 5(d), to the extent that such costs and expenses relate to the administration of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the REMIC Provisions (including any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense), shall be borne by all of the Note Holders collectively, each contributing on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis according to the Percentage Interest represented by each Note.

Anything herein or in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if one of the Notes is included in a REMIC and another is not, such other Note Holder shall not be required to reimburse such Note Holder or any other Person for payment of (i) any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to any other Note Holder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

Section 6.                Note Holder Representatives.

(a)               The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Controlling Note Holder Representative”). The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Note Holder Representative. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person, including, without limitation, the Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Note Holder, any Affiliate of the Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party (other than a Borrower Party). No such Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Note Holder. No Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until the Controlling Note Holder has notified such Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator of such appointment and, if the Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative provides any Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment (and such parties will be entitled to rely on such notice), a mailing address and e-mail address for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such person with whom the parties to this

  -31-  

 

Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and e-mail addresses). The Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to any Servicer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator. None of the Servicers, Operating Advisor, Certificate Administrator and Trustee shall be required to recognize any person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until they receive such information from the Controlling Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder agrees to inform each such Servicer or Trustee of the then-current Controlling Note Holder Representative.

Neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder, in such capacity, will have any liability to any other Note Holder or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence or breach of this Agreement. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder (whether acting in place of the Controlling Note Holder Representative when no Controlling Note Holder Representative shall have been appointed hereunder or otherwise exercising any right, power or privilege granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over any other Note Holder, and that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of another Note Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence or a breach of this Agreement on the part of the Controlling Note Holder Representative or the Controlling Note Holder, as the case may be, acting in such capacity, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Controlling Note Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights, or to have breached this Agreement, by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall provide notice of its identity and contact information (including any change thereof) to the Trustee, Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided, that each Initial Note Holder shall be deemed to have provided such notice on the date hereof. The Trustee, Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such identity and contact information received by it and shall not be liable in respect of any deliveries hereunder sent in reliance thereon.

Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (with respect to such Note Holder, the “Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative”). All of the provisions relating to the Controlling Note Holder and the Controlling Note Holder Representative set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 6(a) (except those contained in the last sentence thereof) and the second paragraph of this Section 6(a) shall apply to

  -32-  

 

each Non-Controlling Note Holder and its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative mutatis mutandis.

For so long as the Lead Securitization Note(s) are included in the Lead Securitization, the “Directing Certificateholder” under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or any other party designated under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to exercise the rights of the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) shall be the Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(b)                   The Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to exercise the rights and powers granted to the Controlling Note hereunder. In addition, the Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters related to the Mortgage Loan if it is a Specially Serviced Loan and (2) the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to all Major Decisions, and, except as set forth below the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to implement or consent to any Major Decision as to which the Controlling Note Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after receipt of the written recommendation and analysis and such additional information requested by the Controlling Note Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Controlling Note Holder in order to make a judgment with respect to such Major Decision. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall seek the consent of the Controlling Note Holder with respect to any Major Decision to the same extent that it is responsible under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for seeking the consent of the Directing Certificateholder with respect to any Major Decision with respect to any other mortgage loan serviced thereunder (assuming that a “Control Termination Event” or similar event under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement has not occurred and is not continuing). The Controlling Note Holder may also direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Note Holder may deem advisable.

If the Controlling Note Holder fails to notify the applicable Servicer of its approval or disapproval of any proposed Major Decision within ten (10) Business Days (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after delivery to the Controlling Note Holder by the applicable Servicer of written notice of a proposed Major Decision (which notice shall contain a legend, in conspicuous boldface type, substantially similar to the following: “THIS IS A REQUEST FOR ACTION APPROVAL. IF THE CONTROLLING NOTE HOLDER FAILS TO APPROVE OR DISAPPROVE THE ENCLOSED ACTION WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS, SUCH ACTION MAY BE DEEMED APPROVED”) together with any information requested by the Controlling Note Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Controlling Note Holder in order to make a judgment, then upon the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default), such Major Decision shall be deemed to have been approved by the Controlling Note Holder.

In the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any other matter requiring consent of the Controlling Note Holder is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders (as a collective whole) and the Master Servicer or Special Servicer,

as the case may be, has made a reasonable effort to contact the Controlling Note Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Controlling Note Holder’s response.

No objection, direction, consent or advice contemplated by the preceding paragraphs may require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of the Mortgage Loan Documents, applicable law, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, this Agreement, the REMIC Provisions or the Master Servicer or Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 7.                Appointment of Special Servicer. The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have the right (subject to the terms, conditions and limitations in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer with the Required Special Servicer Rating. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to each other Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and each other party to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement and delivering a Rating Agency Communication to each Rating Agency (or obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency, but only if required by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement). The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the other parties hereto of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid. If a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer has occurred that affects any Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Note Holder acknowledges and agrees that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at a Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non-Controlling Note Holder. Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Lead Securitization’s “collection account”.

Section 8.                Payment Procedure.

(a)               The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf), in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Collection Account and/or related Companion Distribution Account (each as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) pursuant to and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deposit such payments to the applicable account within two Business Days of receipt of properly identified and available funds by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

(b)               If the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of any Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to any Note Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the related Non-Lead Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) repay to the Lead Securitization Note Holder any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall have theretofore distributed to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall have been required to pay to any Mortgage Loan Borrower, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or such other Person with respect thereto.

(c)               If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) makes any payment to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder before the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Note Holder does not receive the corresponding payment within five (5) Business Days of its payment to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf).

(d)               Each Note Holder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it shall promptly remit such excess to the applicable Note Holder, subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder under the Mortgage Loan. Such Non-Lead Securitization Note

  -35-  

 

Holder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 9.                Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders. No Note Holder shall have any liability to any other Note Holder with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Note Holder; provided, that, notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, each Servicer will nevertheless be subject to the obligations and standards (including the Servicing Standard) set forth in the related Securitization Servicing Agreement.

The Note Holders acknowledge that, subject to the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Note Holder may have under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) shall have no liability whatsoever to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Note Holder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, that each Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement.

Section 10.            Bankruptcy. Subject to Sections 2(a) and 5(c), each Note Holder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Servicer on its behalf) has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder further agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder, and not any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. The Note Holders hereby appoint the Lead Securitization Note Holder as their agent, and grant to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Note Holders hereby agree that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request for

  -36-  

 

the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by any Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement.

Section 11.            Representations of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement is within its corporate powers, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and does not contravene such Note Holder’s charter or any law or contractual restriction binding upon such Note Holder, and that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Note Holder enforceable against such Note Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, in good standing and in possession of all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that (a) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Note Holder, (b) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Note Holder have been obtained or made and (c) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, there is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against such Note Holder, an adverse outcome of which would materially and adversely affect its performance under this Agreement.

Section 12.            No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between the Note Holders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates and if any Note Holder chooses to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future mortgage loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Note Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from any other Note Holder a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates.

Section 13.            Other Business Activities of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder acknowledges that each other Note Holder or its Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Borrower Party, and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to any such party and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 14.            Sale of the Notes.

(a)               Except as otherwise provided in Section 14(c) below, each Note Holder agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its respective Note (or a participation interest in such Note) (a “Transfer”) except to a Qualified Institutional Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Promptly after any such Transfer, any non-transferring Note Holders shall be provided with (x) a representation from each transferee or the transferring Note Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender (except in the case of a Transfer in accordance with the immediately following sentence or a Transfer by a Note Holder to an entity that constitutes a Qualified Institutional Lender pursuant to clause (b)(iii) of the definition thereof) and (y) a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 15 (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement). If a Note Holder intends to Transfer its respective Note, or any portion thereof, to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, it must first (a) obtain the consent of each non-transferring Note Holder and (b) if any such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, provide each of the applicable engaged Rating Agencies for such Securitization Trust with a Rating Agency Communication (or, if the transferring Note Holder is the Lead Securitization Note Holder, obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation from each of the applicable Rating Agencies for such Securitization Trust). Notwithstanding the foregoing, without each non-transferring Note Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if any non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, until a Rating Agency Confirmation is obtained from each engaged Rating Agency for such Securitization Trust, no Note Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note (or a participation interest in such Note) to a Borrower Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. The transferring Note Holder agrees that it shall pay the expenses of any non-transferring Note Holder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and any Controlling Note Holder or Controlling Note Holder Representative) and all expenses relating to any Rating Agency Communication or Rating Agency Confirmation in connection with any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Note Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of any other Note Holder or of any other Person or having to provide any Rating Agency Communication or having to obtain any Rating Agency Confirmation, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in a Note, other than to a Borrower Party. None of the provisions of this Section 14(a) shall apply in the case of (1) a sale of the Lead Securitization Note(s) together with all of the Non-Lead Securitization Notes, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or (2) a transfer by the Special Servicer, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, of the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan, to a single member limited liability or limited partnership, 100% of the equity interest in which is owned directly or indirectly, through one or more single member limited liability companies or limited partnerships, by the Lead Securitization Trust.

(b)               In the case of any Transfer of a participation interest in any of the Notes, (i) the respective Note Holders’ obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Note Holders shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Lead Securitization Note Holder and any Persons acting on its behalf shall continue

  -38-  

 

to deal solely and directly with such Note Holder in connection with such Note Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Note Holder had not sold such participation interest.

(c)               Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Note Holder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than a Borrower Party or any Affiliate thereof) which has extended a credit or repurchase facility to such Note Holder and that is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each applicable Rating Agency (or, if not rated by an applicable Rating Agency, an equivalent (or higher) rating from any two of Fitch, Moody’s and S&P) or to a Person with respect to which a Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained (any of the foregoing, a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 14(c), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Note Holder or any person which Controls such Note that is secured by its Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Note Holder to each other Note Holder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), each other Note Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Note Holder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) days to cure a default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations to each other Note Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Note Holder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Note Holder and accept any cure thereof by such Note Pledgee which such pledging Note Holder has the right (but not the obligation) to effect hereunder, as if such cure were made by such pledging Note Holder; (v) that such other Note Holder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Note Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to each other Note Holder and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Note Holder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Note Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Note Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Note Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Note Holder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Note Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Note Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases each other Note Holder and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Note Holder on account of such other Note Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or such other Note Holder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. A Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies

  -39-  

 

against the pledging Note Holder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Note Holders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof which is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Note Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Note Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 14(c) shall remain effective as to any Note Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Note Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(d)               Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Note Holder then such Note Holder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                       The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Note Holder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note requires a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii)                    The Conduit Credit Enhancer is a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)                 Such Note Holder pledges (or sells, transfers or assigns as part of a repurchase facility) its interest in its Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

(iv)                The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit agree that, if such Note Holder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Note Holder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Note Holder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v)                   Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Note Holder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 15.            Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder. The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names

  -40-  

 

and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 15, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of each other Note Holder. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such person as its agent under this Section 15 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding any Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 14, from and after the date of such assignment. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 14 and this Section 15. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and each other Note Holder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 16.            Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW). EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 17.            Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a)               SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION AND ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN RESPECT THEREOF, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE GENERAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF;

  -41-  

 

(b)               CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)               AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH A PARTY HEREIN SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(d)               AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 18.            Modifications. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Note Holder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Note Holders shall not amend or modify this Agreement without first obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency then rating any securities of any Securitization; provided that no such Rating Agency Confirmation shall be required in connection with a modification (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct any scrivener’s error, to correct or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (ii) with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, to make provisions of this Agreement consistent with other provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with the creation of New Notes pursuant to Section 32).

Section 19.            Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as provided herein, including without limitation, with respect to the Trustee, Certificate Administrator, Master Servicer and Special Servicer and any Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee, none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Person not a party hereto. Subject to Section 14, Section 15 and the last paragraph of Section 3, each Note Holder may assign or delegate its rights or obligations under this Agreement. Upon any such assignment, the assignee shall be entitled to all rights and benefits of the applicable Note Holder hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the representations in Section 11 shall not be binding upon any Securitization Trust.

Section 20.            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and the words “executed,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import as used above and elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to this transaction shall include, in addition to manually executed signatures, images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or

  -42-  

 

other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, any electronic sound, symbol, or process, attached to or logically associated with a contract or other record and executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the record). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

Section 21.            Captions. The titles and headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to summarize or otherwise describe the subject matter of the paragraphs and shall not be given any consideration in the construction of this Agreement.

Section 22.            Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable laws, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 23.            Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

Section 24.            Withholding Taxes. (a) If the Lead Securitization Note Holder or the Mortgage Loan Borrower shall be required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder constituting a Non-Exempt Person, such Lead Securitization Note Holder, in its capacity as servicer, shall be entitled to do so with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to such Note Holder), provided that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall furnish such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting such Note Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which such Note Holder is subject to tax.

(b)               Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall and hereby agrees to indemnify the Lead Securitization Note Holder against and hold the Lead Securitization Note Holder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payment made to such Note Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by such Note Holder to the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payments made to

such Note Holder, it being expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) such Note Holder, upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder and at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(c)               Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) represents (for the benefit of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that neither the Lead Securitization Note Holder nor the Mortgage Loan Borrower is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time as necessary during the term of this Agreement, each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder or Servicer, as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Note Holder substantiating that such Note Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is not obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, (i) if a Note Holder is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (ii) if a Note Holder is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the Mortgage Loan Borrower is treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, such Note Holder shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments), Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, or successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by such Note Holder, as evidence of such Note Holder’s exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note or otherwise until the holder of such Note shall have furnished to the Lead Securitization Note Holder requested forms, certificates, statements or documents.

Section 25.            Custody of Mortgage Loan Documents. Prior to the Lead Securitization Date, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Notes, which will be held by the respective Note Holders or their designated custodians) will be held by the Initial Agent (or a duly appointed interim servicer or custodian on its behalf) on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes. If the Lead Securitization is not also the Note A-1 Securitization, then on and after the Lead Securitization Date, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than any Notes not included in such Lead Securitization, which will be held by the respective Note Holders or their designated custodians) shall be held in the name of the trustee (and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes. On and after the Note A-1

  -44-  

 

Securitization Date, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than any Notes not included in the Note A-1 Securitization) shall be transferred to and held in the name of the trustee (and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor) under the Note A-1 PSA, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes.

Section 26.            Cooperation in Securitization.

(a)               Each Note Holder acknowledges that any Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization. In connection with a Securitization and subject to the terms of the preceding sentence, at the request of the related Securitizing Note Holder, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall use reasonable efforts, at such Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, to satisfy, and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to satisfy, the market standards to which such Securitizing Note Holder customarily adheres or that may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with such Securitization, including, entering into (or consenting to, as applicable) any modifications to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Documents and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute such modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents, in any such case, as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies to effect such Securitization; provided, that no Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall be required to modify or amend this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Documents (or consent to such modification, as applicable) in connection therewith, if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to or priority of such payments to, such Non-Securitizing Note Holder or (ii) materially increase such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s obligations or materially decrease such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s rights, remedies or protections. In connection with any Securitization, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall provide for inclusion in any disclosure document relating to such Securitization such information concerning such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note as the related Securitizing Note Holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, and such Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall, at the Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, cooperate with the reasonable requests of each Rating Agency and such Securitizing Note Holder in connection with such Securitization (including, without limitation, reasonably cooperating with the Securitizing Note Holder (without any obligation to make additional representations and warranties) to enable the Securitizing Note Holder to make all necessary certifications and deliver all necessary opinions (including customary securities law opinions) in connection with the Mortgage Loan and such Securitization), as well as in connection with all other matters and the preparation of any offering documents thereof and to review and respond reasonably promptly with respect to any information relating to such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note in any Securitization document. Each Note Holder acknowledges that in connection with any Securitization, the information provided by it in its capacity as a Non-Securitizing Note Holder to the related Securitizing Note Holder may be incorporated into the offering documents for such Securitization. Each Securitizing Note Holder and each Rating Agency shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, each Non-Securitizing Note Holder. The Securitizing Note Holder shall reasonably cooperate with each Non-Securitizing Note Holder by providing all information reasonably requested that is in the Securitizing Note Holder’s possession in connection with such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s preparation of disclosure materials in connection with a Securitization.

  -45-  

 

Upon request, each Securitizing Note Holder shall deliver to each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder drafts of the preliminary and final offering memoranda, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus and any other disclosure documents and the pooling and servicing agreement for the Securitization of such Securitizing Note Holder’s Note and provide reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such documents.

Section 27.            Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be given by (i)  e-mail (during business hours) if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (ii) reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid) or (iii) certified United States mail, postage prepaid return receipt requested, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses set forth on Exhibit B hereto, or at such other address as any party shall hereafter inform the other party by written notice given as aforesaid. All written notices so given shall be deemed effective upon receipt.

Section 28.            Broker. Each Note Holder represents to each other that it has not dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent or other person that may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 29.            Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a)               The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any documents delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 14 and Section 15;

(b)               The Agent may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

(c)               The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any Note Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(d)               The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(e)               The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any documents delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15;

(f)                The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder; and

(g)               The Agent represents and warrants that it is a Qualified Institutional Lender.

  -46-  

 

Section 30.            Reserved.

Section 31.           Resignation or Termination of Agent. The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. Citi, as Initial Agent, may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of Citi without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of the Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement, and any successor master servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place thereof without any further notice or other action.

Section 32.            Resizing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (but subject to the Servicing Standard), for so long as any Note Holder or an affiliate thereof (an “Original Entity”) is the owner of any Non-Lead Securitization Note that is not included in a Securitization (each, an “Owned Note”), such Original Entity shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated notes or additional notes (in each case, as applicable, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of an Owned Note to such New Notes; or severing an Owned Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of such Owned Note provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the aggregate principal of such Owned Note prior to such amendments, (ii) all Notes continue to have the same weighted average interest rate as the Notes prior to such amendments, (iii) all Notes pay on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement, (iv) the Original Entity holding the New Notes shall notify each other Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing of such modified allocations and principal amounts, and (v) the execution of such amendments and New Notes does not violate the Servicing Standard. Each New Note shall constitute a “Note” hereunder without any further act or deed. If the Lead Securitization Note Holder so requests, the Original Entity holding the New Notes (and any subsequent holder of such Notes) shall execute a confirmation of the continuing applicability of this Agreement to the New Notes, as so modified. Except for the foregoing reallocation and for modifications pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as discussed in Section 5), no Note may be modified or amended without the consent of its holder and the consent of the holder of each other Note. In connection with the foregoing (provided the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (v) above are satisfied, with respect to clauses (i) through (iv), as certified by the Original Entity, on which certification the Master Servicer can rely), the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and directed to execute amendments to the Mortgage Loan Documents and (if the Original Entity so requests and directs) this Agreement on behalf of any or all of the Note Holders, as applicable, solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal and that each New Note shall be a “Note” hereunder and for the purpose of adding and modifying any definitions related thereto. If the

  -47-  

 

Controlling Note is involved in any resizing contemplated by this Section 32, the applicable Note Holder shall be entitled to designate any one of the related New Notes as the Controlling Note, and the definitions of “Controlling Note” and “Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly. Any New Note that is created in a resizing contemplated by this Section 32 and is not the Controlling Note shall be deemed to be a Non-Controlling Note under this Agreement, the definitions of “Non-Controlling Note” and “Non-Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly to include such New Notes, and the applicable Note Holders of such Non-Controlling Notes shall have the same rights and responsibilities as all other Non-Controlling Note Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, Rating Agency Confirmation shall not be required for any amendments to this Agreement required to facilitate the terms of this Section 32.

Section 2.                Servicing of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)                   Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (and each Note Holder hereby agrees that this paragraph shall control over any conflicting provisions contained in this Agreement (including with respect to any other provisions containing the phrase “notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary” or words of similar effect or intent)), prior to the closing date of the Lead Securitization, (x) the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced pursuant to an interim servicing agreement entered into with an interim servicer appointed by Citi (the “Interim Servicer”), and (y) all servicing and other decisions regarding the Mortgage Loan shall be made: (i) with respect to matters set forth on Exhibit D hereto as constituting “Unanimous Decisions”, by unanimous consent of the Note Holders, and (ii) with respect to all other matters, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the Servicing Agreement (provided that any conflict between the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement shall be resolved in favor of this Agreement), by the Controlling Note Holder.

Each Note Holder acknowledges and agrees that, subject in each case to this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan shall be serviced from and after the Securitization Date pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement.

Each Note Holder acknowledges that the other Note Holders may elect, in their sole discretion, to include their Notes in a Securitization and agrees that it will, subject to Section 26, reasonably cooperate with such other Note Holder, at such other Note Holder’s expense, to effect such Securitization.

Each Note Holder hereby irrevocably appoints the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee in

At any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Note Holders agree to cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced by one or more servicers, each of which has been agreed upon by the Note Holders, pursuant to a servicing agreement that has servicing terms substantially similar to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and all references herein to the “Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement” shall mean such subsequent servicing agreement; provided, however, that if any Non-Lead Securitization Note is in a Securitization, then a Rating Agency Confirmation shall have been obtained from each Rating Agency for each Securitization then outstanding with respect to which certificates thereof are then rated by such Rating Agency; provided, further, however, that until a replacement servicing agreement has been entered into, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be serviced pursuant to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (excluding, however, any obligation to make any P&I Advances in respect of the Lead Securitization Note(s) except as specifically agreed to by the Master Servicer, and provided that the Master Servicer’s right to reimbursement for Servicing Advances and Advance Interest thereon as set forth in Section 2(b) shall remain in effect) as if such agreement was still in full force and effect with respect to the Mortgage Loan, by the Servicer in the Lead Securitization or by any Person appointed by the Lead Securitization Note Holder, which with respect to the master servicer shall be a qualified servicer meeting the requirements of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and with respect to the special servicer shall be an Approved Servicer.

(b)               The Master Servicer shall be the master servicer on the Mortgage Loan, and from time to time it (or the Trustee, to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) (i) shall be required to make Servicing Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan, subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and (ii) may be required to make P&I Advances on the Lead Securitization Note(s), if and to the extent provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be obligated to advance monthly payments of principal or interest in respect of any Note other than the Lead Securitization Note(s) if such principal or interest is not paid by the Mortgage Loan Borrower but shall be obligated to advance delinquent real estate taxes, insurance premiums and other expenses related to the maintenance of the Mortgaged Property and maintenance and enforcement of the lien of the Mortgage thereon, subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement including any provisions governing the determination of non-recoverability. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for a Servicing Advance, first from funds on deposit in the Collection Account

or Companion Distribution Account for the Mortgage Loan that (in any case) represent amounts received on or in respect of the Mortgage Loan, and then, in the case of Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances, if such funds on deposit in the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account are insufficient, from general collections of the Lead Securitization as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and from general collections of any Non-Lead Securitization as provided below. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for any interest accrued and payable on a Servicing Advance or a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance at the Reimbursement Rate in the manner and from the sources provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, including from general collections of the Lead Securitization and from general collections of any Non-Lead Securitization as provided below. To the extent the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, obtains funds from general collections of the Lead Securitization as a reimbursement for a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or any interest at the Reimbursement Rate accrued and payable on a Servicing Advance or a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, the applicable Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including, if the applicable Non-Lead Securitization Note has been included in any Non-Lead Securitization, from general collections or any other amounts from any Non-Lead Securitization Trust) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, reimburse the Lead Securitization for its pro rata share of such Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or any such interest accrued and payable thereon at the Reimbursement Rate.

In addition, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including, but not limited to, any Non-Lead Securitization Trust) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pay or reimburse the Lead Securitization for such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of any fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor or the Depositor, as applicable, is entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and any costs, fees and expenses related to obtaining any Rating Agency Confirmation, to the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account that are allocated to such Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts and to the extent that funds from general collections in the Lead Securitization are applied towards the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of the insufficiency. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees to indemnify (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of the following parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor and the Depositor (and any director, officer, employee or agent of any of the foregoing, to the extent such parties are identified as indemnified parties in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in respect of other mortgage loans) (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property (or, with respect to the Operating Advisor, incurred in connection with the provision of services for the Mortgage Loan) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Items”) to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account or

19

Companion Distribution Account that are allocated to such Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for its pro rata share of the insufficiency (including, if such Non-Lead Securitization Note has been included in a Non-Lead Securitization, from general collections or any other amounts from such Non-Lead Securitization Trust).

The master servicer under any Non-Lead Securitization (each, a “Non-Lead Master Servicer”) may be required to make P&I Advances on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note, from time to time, subject to the terms of the servicing agreement for the related Securitization (each, a “Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement”) and this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the Lead Securitization Note(s) based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The applicable Non-Lead Master Servicer and the special servicer and the trustee under any Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (respectively, a “Non-Lead Special Servicer” and a “Non-Lead Trustee”), as applicable, shall be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance to be made on the related Non-Lead Securitization Note based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, and any Non-Lead Master Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee shall be required to notify the others of the amount of its P&I Advance within two (2) Business Days of making such advance. If the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable (with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s)) or any Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable (with respect to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note), determines that a proposed P&I Advance, if made, would be non-recoverable or an outstanding P&I Advance is or would be non-recoverable, or if the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, subsequently determines that a proposed Servicing Advance would be non-recoverable or an outstanding Servicing Advance is or would be non-recoverable, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee (as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee) or any Non-Lead Master Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee (as provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, in the case of a determination of non-recoverability by any Non-Lead Master Servicer, any Non-Lead Special Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee) shall notify the Master Servicer and the Trustee, or any Non-Lead Master Servicer and any Non-Lead Trustee, as the case may be, of the other Securitizations within two (2) Business Days of making such determination. Each of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and the related Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, will only be entitled to reimbursement for a P&I Advance and advance interest thereon that becomes non-recoverable first from the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account from amounts allocable to the Note for which such P&I Advance was made, and then, if funds are insufficient, (i) in the case of the Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the Lead Securitization Trust, pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of any Non-Lead Securitization Note, from general collections of the related Securitization Trust, as and to the extent provided in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

20

(c)                   Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder agrees that, if its Non-Lead Securitization Note is included in a Securitization, it shall cause the applicable Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to contain provisions to the effect that:

(i)                             the applicable Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be responsible for its pro rata share of any Servicing Advances (and interest thereon) and any additional trust fund expenses, but only to the extent that they relate to servicing and administration of the Notes and the Mortgaged Property, including without limitation, any unpaid Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees and Workout Fees relating to the Notes, and that in the event that the funds received with respect to each respective Note are insufficient to cover such Servicing Advances or additional trust fund expenses, (A) the related Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, pay or reimburse the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Operating Advisor or the Lead Securitization Trust, as applicable, out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of any such Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances (together with interest thereon) and/or additional trust fund expenses (including compensation due to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the extent related to the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property), and (B) if the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement permits the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor to reimburse itself from the Lead Securitization Trust’s general collections, then the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Operating Advisor, as applicable, may do so, and the related Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to, promptly following notice from the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee, reimburse the Lead Securitization Trust out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s pro rata share of any such Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances (together with interest thereon) and/or additional trust fund expenses (including compensation due to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to the extent related to the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan and the Mortgaged Property);

(ii)                          each of the Indemnified Parties shall be indemnified (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each of such Indemnified Parties in respect of other mortgage loans in the Lead Securitization Trust pursuant to the terms of Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and, in the case of the Lead Securitization Trust, to the extent of any additional trust fund expenses with respect to the Mortgage Loan) by the related Non-Lead Securitization Trust, against any of the Indemnified Items to the extent of its pro rata share of such Indemnified Items, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account that are allocated to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer will be required to reimburse each of the applicable Indemnified Parties for the related Non-Lead Securitization Note’s pro rata share of the insufficiency out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non-Lead

21

Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided that a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s duty to pay, if any, Indemnified Items to the Operating Advisor shall be subject to any limitations and conditions (including limitations and conditions with respect to the timing of such payments and the sources of funds for such payments) as may be set forth from time to time in the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing agreement with respect to the related Non-Lead Operating Advisor;

(iii)                       the related Non-Lead Certificate Administrator will be required to deliver to the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Operating Advisor and the Asset Representations Reviewer (i) if not provided by such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, promptly following Securitization of the related Non-Lead Securitization Note, notice of the deposit of the related Non-Lead Securitization Note into a Securitization Trust (which notice shall also provide contact information for the related Non-Lead Trustee, the related Non-Lead Certificate Administrator, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer, the related Non-Lead Special Servicer, the related Non-Lead Operating Advisor, the related Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer and the party designated to exercise the rights of the “Non-Controlling Note Holder” under this Agreement), accompanied by a certified copy of the executed Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) notice of any subsequent change in the identity of the Non-Lead Master Servicer or the party designated to exercise the rights of a “Non-Controlling Note Holder” under this Agreement (together with the relevant contact information); and

(iv)                      The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Lead Securitization Trust shall be third party beneficiaries of the foregoing provisions.

(d)               The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall provide that compensating interest payments as defined therein with respect to the Notes will be allocated by the Master Servicer between the Notes, pro rata, in accordance with their respective principal amounts. The Master Servicer shall remit any compensating interest payment in respect of any Non-Lead Securitization Note to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(e)               In the event the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement provides that as a condition precedent to any action a filing must be made by each Non-Lead Depositor in order for the Depositor to comply with the Depositor’s requirements under the Exchange Act, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (including the related Non-Lead Depositor and related Non-Lead Trustee) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to timely comply with any such filing.

(f)                    Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall give each of the parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and each other Note Holder notice of the Non-Lead Securitization to which the subject Non-Lead Securitization Note has been contributed, respectively in writing (which may be by e-mail) prior to or promptly following the closing of the related Securitization.

22

(g)               The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall provide that if a Non-Lead Securitization Note becomes the subject of an Asset Review pursuant to the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Administrator shall reasonably cooperate with the related Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer in connection with such Asset Review by providing such Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer with any documents reasonably requested by such Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer, but only to the extent that such documents are in the possession of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as the case may be, and are not in the possession of such Non-Lead Asset Representations Reviewer, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer, the related Non-Lead Special Servicer or custodian, and not subject to any confidentiality provisions, as the case may be, but in any event excluding any documents known to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian to contain information that is proprietary to the related originator or mortgage loan seller or any draft documents or privileged or internal communications.

(h)               In addition to the foregoing, each Securitization Servicing Agreement shall contain terms and conditions that are customary for securitization transactions involving assets similar to the Mortgage Loan and that are otherwise (i) required by the Code relating to the tax elections of the trust fund formed pursuant to such Securitization Servicing Agreement, (ii) required by law or changes in any law, rule or regulation or (iii) requested by the Rating Agencies rating the related Securitization.

Section 3.                Priority of Payments.    Each Note shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Note shall have priority or preference over any portion of any other Note or security therefor. All amounts tendered by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or otherwise available for payment on or with respect to or in connection with the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property or amounts realized as proceeds thereof, whether received in the form of Scheduled Interest Payments, Scheduled Principal Payment, the Balloon Payment, Liquidation Proceeds, proceeds under any guaranty, letter of credit or other collateral or instrument securing the Mortgage Loan, or Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds (other than proceeds, awards or settlements to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgage Loan Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents), but excluding (x) all amounts for required reserves or escrows required by the Mortgage Loan Documents (to the extent, in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents) to be held as reserves or escrows or received as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of property protection expenses or Servicing Advances then due and payable or reimbursable to the Trustee or any Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (y) all amounts that are then due, payable or reimbursable (except for (i) any reimbursements of P&I Advances (and interest thereon) made with respect to any Note which may only be reimbursed out of payments and collections allocable to such Note, (ii) any Servicing Fees due to the Master Servicer in excess of any Non-Lead Securitization Note’s pro rata share of that portion of such Servicing Fees calculated at the Servicing Fee Rate applicable to the Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) to any Servicer (or the Trustee as successor to the Servicer), with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including without limitation, any additional trust fund expenses relating to the Mortgage Loan (but subject to second paragraph of Section 5(d) hereof) and any Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees, Workout Fees, Penalty Charges (to the extent provided in the

23

immediately following paragraph), amounts paid by the Borrower in respect of modification fees or assumption fees and any other additional compensation payable pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), shall be applied by the Servicer (or its designee) to the Notes on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis.

For clarification purposes, Penalty Charges (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) paid shall be allocated to the Notes on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis and applied first, to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer for any interest accrued on any Servicing Advances and reimbursement of any Servicing Advances in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, second, to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the respective amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, Trustee, Non-Lead Master Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee for any interest accrued on any P&I Advance made with respect to such Note by such party (if and as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or any Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable), third, to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay additional trust fund expenses (including Special Servicing Fees, unpaid Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan (as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and finally, (i) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to the Lead Securitization Note(s), be paid to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of the remaining amount of Penalty Charges allocable to each Non-Lead Securitization Note, be paid, (x) prior to the securitization of such Note, to the related Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and (y) following the securitization of such Note, to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Any proceeds received by any Note Holder from the sale of master servicing rights with respect to its Note shall be for its own account. Any Note Holder that receives proceeds from the sale of the primary servicing rights with respect to the entire Mortgage Loan (the “Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds”) shall remit to the other Note Holders, promptly upon receipt thereof, such amounts as are required such that each Note Holder receives its pro rata share of such proceeds on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if a Note is held by a Securitization Trust at a time when its Note Holder would be entitled to receive any amount under such preceding sentence, such amount shall be remitted to the Person that was the Note Holder of such Note immediately prior to the transfer of such Note to the depositor for such Securitization. On and after the Lead Securitization Date, if the Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds (or any portion thereof) are required to be repaid to the Master Servicer, each Person that received its pro rata share of such Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds in its capacity as a Note Holder as contemplated by the preceding sentence (each such Person, a “Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds Recipient”) shall be obligated to pay the Master Servicer its pro rata share of the Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds (or portion thereof) required to be repaid to such Master Servicer; provided, however, that such obligation shall remain an obligation of such Primary Servicing Rights Proceeds Recipient notwithstanding any transfer of the related Note(s) (and the related rights under this Agreement) to a subsequent Note Holder absent an explicit written assumption of such obligation which assumption specifies this last paragraph of Section 3 of this Agreement.

24

Section 4.                Workout.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Securitization Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal priorities of each Note as described in Section 3.

Section 5.                Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)               Subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy, and the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders shall have no voting, consent or other rights whatsoever except as explicitly set forth herein with respect to the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders agree that they shall have no rights to, and hereby presently and irrevocably assign and convey to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) the rights, if any, that such Note Holders have to, (i) call or cause the Lead Securitization Note Holder to call an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Securitization Note Holder to file any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Note Holder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or its obligation to follow the Servicing Standard (in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or any liability for failure to do so).

Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder), upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan, to sell the Non-Lead Securitization Notes together with the Lead Securitization Note(s) as notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

In connection with any such sale, the Special Servicer shall be required to sell each Non-Lead Securitization Note together with the Lead Securitization Note(s) in the manner set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and shall be required to require that all offers be submitted to the Certificate Administrator or Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in writing and be accompanied by a refundable deposit of cash in an amount equal to 5% of the offer amount (subject to a cap of $2,500,000). Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan shall be determined by the Trustee or Special Servicer, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two bona fide other offers are received from independent third parties. In determining whether any offer received from an Interested Person represents a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the preceding nine (9) month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. The Trustee shall select the Appraiser conducting any such new Appraisal. In determining whether any such offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall instruct the Appraiser to take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal or updated Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the affected Mortgage Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of the related Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. The Trustee may conclusively rely on the opinion of an Independent appraiser or other Independent expert in real estate matters retained by the Trustee at the expense of the Holders in connection with making such determination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan if it becomes a Defaulted Loan without the written consent of each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (provided that such consent is not required if a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder: (a) at least fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale, (c) at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File reasonably requested by any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder that are material to the sale price of the Mortgage Loan and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to the other offerors and the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by any Servicer in connection with the proposed sale; provided, that such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder may waive any of the delivery or timing requirements set forth in this sentence.

Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, each of the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Non-Controlling Note

26

Holders and the Non-Controlling Note Holder Representatives shall be permitted to bid at any sale of the Mortgage Loan unless such Person is the Mortgage Loan Borrower or an agent or Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower.

Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of the Non-Lead Securitization Notes. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of Lead Securitization Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver their respective original Non-Lead Securitization Notes, endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to sell any Non-Lead Securitization Note, and the obligations of a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder to execute and deliver instruments or deliver its Non-Lead Securitization Note upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Securitization Note(s) is repurchased by their applicable initial Holders from the trust fund established under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by such initial Note Holder(s) with respect to the Lead Securitization Notes or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by the such initial Note Holder(s) with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s) upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization. The preceding sentence shall not be construed to grant to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the benefit of any representation or warranty made by the initial Note Holder(s) of the Lead Securitization Note(s) or any document delivery obligation imposed on such Note Holder(s) under any mortgage loan purchase and sale agreement, instrument of transfer or other document or instrument that may be executed or delivered by such Note Holder(s) in connection with the Lead Securitization.

(b)               The administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan (or to the extent otherwise provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), by the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard, taking into account the interests of the Note Holders as a collective whole. The Note Holders agree to be bound by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Note Holder described hereunder may be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Trustee on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

27

The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not be amended in any manner that may adversely affect any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in its capacity as Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder without such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s prior written consent. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (unless it is the same Person as or an Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) shall be a third-party beneficiary to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to their rights as specifically provided for therein.

(c)               The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have, with respect to the Mortgage Loan, all of the same rights and powers of the Controlling Class Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the other mortgage loans included in the Lead Securitization, including without limitation, the right to consent and/or consult regarding Major Decisions and other servicing matters, the right to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all Specially Serviced Loans and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to non-Specially Serviced Loans as to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, and the right to direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Class Representative may deem advisable or as to which provision is otherwise made therein, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

(d)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall be required (i) to provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders (or their respective Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative), within the same time frame it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) to consult with the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders (or their respective Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative); provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders (or their respective Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) by the Lead Securitization Note Holder of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall no longer be obligated to consult with any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its

28

Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative), whether or not a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the non-binding consultation rights of a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders. In no event shall the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative).

In addition to the consultation rights of the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders (or their respective Non-Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative) provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders shall have the right to attend annual meetings (either telephonically or in person, in the discretion of the Servicer) with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) at the offices of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed; provided that such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, at the request of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall execute a confidentiality agreement in form and substance satisfactory to it, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, and the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(e)               If any Note is included as an asset of a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a “REMIC”), within the meaning of Section 860D(a) of the Code, then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interest of the pro rata share of each Note Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Note Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC which includes the

29

Notes (or any portion thereof). Each Note Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected by compliance with any REMIC provisions in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan.

Anything herein or in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that one or more of the Notes is included in a REMIC and one or more other Notes are not, such other Note Holder(s) shall not be required to reimburse such Note Holder(s) or any other Person for payment of (i) any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to the other Note Holders be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

Section 6.                Appointment of Controlling Note Holder Representative and Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(a)               The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Controlling Note Holder Representative”). The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Note Holder Representative in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower, its principal or any Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Borrower), including, without limitation, the Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Note Holder, any affiliate of the Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party. No such Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Note Holder. No Servicer, Operating Advisor, Asset Representations Reviewer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until the Controlling Note Holder has notified each Servicer, Operating Advisor, Asset Representations Reviewer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator of such appointment and, if the Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative provides each Servicer, Operating Advisor, Asset Representations Reviewer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment, an address and facsimile number for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and facsimile numbers). The Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to each Servicer, Operating Advisor, Asset Representations Reviewer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator. So long as no Consultation Termination Event (including any such

30

deemed event) is in effect pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder Representative shall be the Lead Securitization Subordinate Class Representative.

(b)               Neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will have any liability to the other Note Holders or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder (whether acting in place of the Controlling Note Holder Representative when no Controlling Note Holder Representative shall have been appointed hereunder or otherwise exercising any right, power or privilege granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over the other Note Holders, and that the Controlling Note Holder Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of a Note Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Controlling Note Holder Representative or the Controlling Note Holder, as the case may be, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Controlling Note Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

(c)               Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (with respect to such Non-Controlling Note Holder, the “Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative”). All of the provisions relating to the Controlling Note Holder and the Controlling Note Holder Representative set forth in Section 6(a) (except those contained in the last sentence thereof) and Section 6(b) shall apply to the Non-Controlling Note Holders and the Non-Controlling Note Holder Representatives mutatis mutandis.

(d)               The Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to exercise the rights and powers granted to the Lead Securitization Note hereunder and the rights and powers granted to the “Controlling Class Representative” or similar party under, and as defined in, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loan. In addition, the Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters related to a “Specially Serviced Loan” (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, and, except as set forth below (i) the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to implement any Major Decision unless it has obtained the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and (ii) the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to consent to the Master Servicer’s implementing any Major

31

Decision nor will the Special Servicer itself be permitted to implement any Major Decision as to which the Controlling Note Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or 30 days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default if so provided for in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) after receipt of the written recommendation and analysis and such additional information requested by the Controlling Note Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Controlling Note Holder in order to make a judgment with respect to such Major Decision. The Controlling Note Holder may also direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Note Holder may deem advisable.

If the Controlling Note Holder fails to notify the Special Servicer of its approval or disapproval of any proposed Major Decision within ten (10) Business Days (or five (5) Business Days if the Controlling Note Holder and the Special Servicer are affiliates or 30 days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default if so provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) after delivery to the Controlling Note Holder by the applicable Servicer of written notice of a proposed Major Decision, then the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have approved such action.

In the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any other matter requiring consent of the Controlling Note Holder is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders (as a collective whole) and the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Controlling Note Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Controlling Note Holder’s response.

No objection, direction, consent or advice contemplated by the preceding paragraphs may require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of the Mortgage Loan Documents, applicable law, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, this Agreement, the REMIC provisions of the Code or the Master Servicer or Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard or materially expand the scope of responsibilities of any of the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable.

The Controlling Note Holder shall have no liability to the other Note Holders or any other party for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over the other Note Holders, and that the Controlling Note Holder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of another Note Holder and, absent willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Controlling Note Holder agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder or any of its officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that the Controlling Note Holder shall not be

32

deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misconduct or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

Section 7.                Appointment of Special Servicer.    Subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have the right at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer in lieu thereof. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to the other Note Holders, the Master Servicer, the then existing Special Servicer and other parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, a Rating Agency Confirmation, if required by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), if any. The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the other parties hereto of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7 and promptly deliver all information necessary for any Non-Lead Securitization to comply with any applicable reporting requirements under the Exchange Act. Any such appointment of a replacement Special Servicer will not become effective unless all such information has been delivered to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid.

If a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer has occurred that affects a Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced) solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer subject to the provisions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the successor servicing agreement pursuant to which the Mortgage Loan is being serviced). The Controlling Note Holder and each Non-Controlling Note Holder acknowledge and agree that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at a Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non-Controlling Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder and the Non-Controlling Note Holders acknowledge and agree that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the

33

Special Servicer will be an Approved Servicer or meet the Required Special Servicer Rating. The applicable Non-Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account.

Section 8.                Payment Procedure.

(a)               The Lead Securitization Note Holder, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, will deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Collection Account or Companion Distribution Account, as applicable, pursuant to and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall (i) deposit such amounts to the applicable account within two (2) Business Days after receipt of properly identified and available funds by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower and (ii) remit from the applicable account, (A) prior to the Securitization Date, within two (2) Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds (unless otherwise specified pursuant to an interim servicing agreement) and (B) on or after the Securitization Date, (1) with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s), the remittance date under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for the Lead Securitization Note(s) and (2) with respect to each Non-Lead Securitization Note, (x) prior to the related Non-Lead Securitization, the remittance date under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for the Lead Securitization Note(s) and (y) on or after the related Non-Lead Securitization, the earlier of the remittance date under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and the business day immediately succeeding the “determination date” set forth in the Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for such Non-Lead Securitization Note (but in any event no earlier than one (1) Business Day following the Monthly Payment Date), all payments received and allocable pursuant to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note (net of amounts payable or reimbursable from such account) by wire transfer to accounts maintained by the applicable Note Holder.

(b)               If the Lead Securitization Note Holder determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of any Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to the Lead Securitization Note Holder, a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders and such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder will promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Note Holder repay to the Lead Securitization Note Holder any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have theretofore distributed to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have been required to pay to any Mortgage Loan Borrower, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or such other Person with respect thereto.

34

(c)               If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Note Holder makes any payment to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder before the Lead Securitization Note Holder has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Note Holder does not receive the corresponding payment within five (5) Business Days of its payment to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(d)               Each Note Holder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it shall promptly remit such excess to the applicable Note Holder, subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder under the Mortgage Loan. Such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 9.                Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders.    No Note Holder shall have any liability to the other Note Holders with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Note Holder; provided, however, that to the extent that any Securitization Servicing Agreement imposes a different standard of care on any party thereto, then such Securitization Servicing Agreement shall control.

The Note Holders acknowledge that, subject to the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Note Holder may have under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee) shall have no liability whatsoever to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Note Holder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, however, that the Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 10.            Bankruptcy.    Subject to Section 5(c), each Note Holder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder further agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder, and not the Non-Lead

35

Securitization Note Holders, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. The Note Holders hereby appoint the Lead Securitization Note Holder as their agent, and grant to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to the Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Note Holders hereby agree that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by the Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and this Agreement.

Section 11.            Representations of the Note Holders.    Each Note Holder represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement is within its corporate powers, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and does not contravene such Note Holder’s charter or any law or contractual restriction binding upon such Note Holder, and that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Note Holder enforceable against such Note Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, in good standing and in possession of all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry on its business. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that (a) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Note Holder, (b) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Note Holder have been obtained or made and (c) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, there is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against such Note Holder, an adverse outcome of which would materially and adversely affect its performance under this Agreement.

Section 12.            No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right.    Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between the Note Holders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates and if any Note Holder chooses to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future mortgage

36

loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Note Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from any other Note Holder a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates.

Section 13.            Other Business Activities of the Note Holders.    Each Note Holder acknowledges that each other Note Holder or its Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, any entity that is a holder of debt secured by direct or indirect ownership interests in the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any entity that is a holder of a preferred equity interest in the Mortgage Loan Borrower (each, a “Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party”), and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Parties and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 14.            Sale of the Notes.

(a)               Each Note Holder agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, participate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber or otherwise dispose (either (i) directly or (ii) indirectly through entering into a derivatives contract or any other similar agreement, excluding a repo financing or a Pledge in accordance with Section 14(c)) of a Note (a “Transfer”) except to a Qualified Institutional Lender. Promptly after the Transfer, the non-transferring Note Holders shall be provided with (x) a representation from a transferee or the applicable Note Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender (except in the case of a Transfer to a Securitization (and the related pooling and servicing or similar agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement) or in accordance with the immediately following sentence) and (y) a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 15. If a Note Holder intends to Transfer its respective Note, or any portion thereof, to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, it must first obtain (x) prior to a Securitization, the consent of each non-transferring Note Holder or (y) after a Securitization of any Note Holder’s Note, Rating Agency Confirmation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without each non-transferring Note Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, without Rating Agency Confirmation, no Note Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note (or a participation interest in such Note) to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or a Mortgage Loan Borrower Related Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. The transferring Note Holder agrees that it will pay the expenses of each non-transferring Note Holder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee) and all expenses relating to the confirmation from the Rating Agencies in connection with any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Note Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of any other Note Holder, the Rating Agencies or any other Person, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its Note or any beneficial interest in its Note. None of the provisions of this Section 14(a) shall apply in the case of (1) a sale of all of the Notes together in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or (2) a transfer by the Special Servicer, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, of the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, upon the Mortgage

37

Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan, to a single member limited liability or limited partnership, 100% of the equity interest in which is owned directly or indirectly, through one or more single member limited liability companies or limited partnerships, by the Lead Securitization Trust.

For the purposes of this Agreement, if any Rating Agency shall, in writing, waive, decline or refuse to review or otherwise engage any request for a confirmation hereunder from such Rating Agency that a proposed action will not result in a qualification, downgrade or withdrawal of its then current rating of the securities issued pursuant to the related Securitization, such waiver, declination, or refusal shall be deemed to eliminate, for such request only, the condition that such confirmation by such Rating Agency (only) be obtained for purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of clarity, any such waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any request for such confirmation hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in any subsequent request for such Rating Agency confirmation hereunder and the condition for such Rating Agency confirmation pursuant to this Agreement for any subsequent request shall apply regardless of any previous waiver, declination or refusal to review or otherwise engage in such prior request.

(b)               In the case of any Transfer of a participation interest in any of the Notes, (i) the respective Note Holders’ obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Note Holders shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Lead Securitization Note Holder and any Persons acting on its behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Note Holder in connection with such Note Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Note Holder had not sold such participation interest.

(c)               Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Note Holder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof) which has extended a credit facility to such Note Holder and that is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency (a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 14(c), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Note Holder or any person which Controls such Note that is secured by its Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Note Holder to each other Note Holder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), each other Note Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Note Holder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) days to cure a default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations to each other Note Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Note Holder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default

38

under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Note Holder; (v) that such other Note Holder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Note Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to each other Note Holder and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Note Holder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Note Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Note Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Note Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Note Holder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Note Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Note Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases each other Note Holder and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Note Holder on account of such other Note Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or such other Note Holder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Note Holder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Note Holders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof which is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Note Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Note Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 14(c) shall remain effective as to any Note Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Note Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(d)               Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Note Holder then such Note Holder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)                              The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Note Holder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note requires a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii)                          The Conduit Credit Enhancer is a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)                      Such Note Holder pledges its interest in its Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

39

(iv)                     The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit agree that, if such Note Holder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Note Holder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Note Holder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v)                        Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Note Holder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 15.            Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder.    The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 15, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note Holder is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of each other Note Holder. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such person as its agent under this Section 15 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding any Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 14, from and after the date of such assignment. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 14 and this Section 15. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and each other Note Holder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

(b)               CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)               AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH A PARTY HEREIN SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(d)               AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 18.            Modifications. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Note Holder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Note Holders shall not amend or modify this Agreement without first receiving a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency for each Securitization then outstanding with respect to which certificates thereof are then rated by such Rating Agency; provided that no such confirmation from the Rating Agencies shall be required in connection with a modification (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, (ii) to make other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement including, without limitation, in connection with the creation of New Notes pursuant to Section 31 or (iii) if and to the extent that it would be deemed given or

41

not required pursuant to the definition of Rating Agency Confirmation in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and/or any Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable.

Section 19.            Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries.    This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

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

Section 23.            Entire Agreement.    This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this

42

Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

Section 24.            Withholding Taxes.    (a) If the Lead Securitization Note Holder or the Mortgage Loan Borrower shall be required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder constituting a Non-Exempt Person, the Lead Securitization Note Holder, in its capacity as servicer, shall be entitled to do so with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to such Note Holder), provided that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall furnish such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting such Note Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which such Note Holder is subject to tax.

(b)               The Non-Lead Securitization Note Holders shall and hereby agree to indemnify the Lead Securitization Note Holder against and hold the Lead Securitization Note Holder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payment made to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder to the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payments made to Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, it being expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder and at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(c)               Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder represents to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (for the benefit of the Mortgage Loan Borrower) that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that neither the Lead Securitization Note Holder nor the Mortgage Loan Borrower is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time as necessary during the term of this Agreement, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder or Servicer, as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Note Holder substantiating that such Note Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is not obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing, (i) if a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it

43

shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (ii) if a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the Mortgage Loan Borrower is treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, such Note Holder shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments) or Form W-8BEN, or successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by such Note Holder, as evidence of such Note Holder’s exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder with respect to a Non-Lead Securitization Note or otherwise until such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have furnished to the Lead Securitization Note Holder requested forms, certificates, statements or documents.

Section 25.          Custody of Mortgage Loan Documents. The originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Non-Lead Securitization Notes) (a) prior to the Lead Securitization will be held by the Initial Agent and (b) after the Lead Securitization, will be held by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (in the name of the Trustee and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), in each case, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes.

Section 26.             Cooperation in Securitization.

Each Note Holder acknowledges that any Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization. In connection with a Securitization and subject to the terms of the preceding sentence, at the request of the related Securitizing Note Holder, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall use reasonable efforts, at such Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, to satisfy, and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to satisfy, the market standards to which such Securitizing Note Holder customarily adheres or that may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with such Securitization, including, entering into (or consenting to, as applicable) any modifications to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Documents and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute such modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents, in any such case, as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies to effect such Securitization; provided, that no Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall be required to modify or amend this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Documents (or consent to such modification, as applicable) in connection therewith, if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to or priority of such payments to, such Non-Securitizing Note Holder or (ii) materially increase such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s obligations or materially decrease such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s rights, remedies or protections. In connection with any Securitization, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall provide for inclusion in any disclosure document relating to such Securitization such information concerning such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note as the related Securitizing Note Holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, and such Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall, at the Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, cooperate with the reasonable requests of each Rating

44

Agency and such Securitizing Note Holder in connection with such Securitization (including, without limitation, reasonably cooperating with the Securitizing Note Holder (without any obligation to make additional representations and warranties) to enable the Securitizing Note Holder to make all necessary certifications and deliver all necessary opinions (including customary securities law opinions) in connection with the Mortgage Loan and such Securitization), as well as in connection with all other matters and the preparation of any offering documents thereof and to review and respond reasonably promptly with respect to any information relating to such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note in any Securitization document. Each Note Holder acknowledges that in connection with any Securitization, the information provided by it in its capacity as a Non-Securitizing Note Holder to the related Securitizing Note Holder may be incorporated into the offering documents for such Securitization. Each Securitizing Note Holder and each Rating Agency shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, each Non-Securitizing Note Holder. The Securitizing Note Holder shall reasonably cooperate with each Non-Securitizing Note Holder by providing all information reasonably requested that is in the Securitizing Note Holder’s possession in connection with such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s preparation of disclosure materials in connection with a Securitization.

Upon request, each Securitizing Note Holder shall deliver to each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder drafts of the preliminary and final offering memoranda, preliminary and final prospectuses, free writing prospectuses and any other disclosure documents and the pooling and servicing agreement for the Securitization of such Securitizing Note Holder’s Note and provide reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such documents.

The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall send or make available to each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and the parties to the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (that are not also party to the Lead-Securitization Servicing Agreement) (a) on or promptly following the Securitization Date (to the extent the applicable parties to the related Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement have been engaged by the related Non-Lead Depositor on or prior to the Securitization Date), a copy (in EDGAR-compatible format) of the execution version of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, (b) within two (2) Business Days after the date of any re-filing by the Depositor of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with the Commission to account for any changes thereto (other than a formal amendment thereto following the Securitization Date), a copy (in EDGAR-compatible format) of the re-filed Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and (c) promptly following distribution thereof to the parties to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, any changes made by the Depositor to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (other than a formal amendment thereto following the Securitization Date).

Section 27.            Notices.    All notices required hereunder shall be given by (i) telephone (confirmed promptly in writing) or shall be in writing and personally delivered, (ii) sent by facsimile transmission (during business hours) if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (iii) reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid) or (iv) certified United States mail, postage prepaid return receipt requested, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses set forth on Exhibit B hereto, or at such other address as any party shall hereafter inform the

45

Section 28.            Broker. Each Note Holder represents to each other that no broker was responsible for bringing about this transaction.

Section 29.            Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a)               The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 14 and Section 15;

(b)               The Agent may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

(c)               The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any Note Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(d)               The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

46

(e)               The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any officer’s certificate or assignment and assumption agreement delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15;

(f)                The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder; and

(g)               The Agent represents and warrants that it is a Qualified Institutional Lender.

Section 30.            Termination and Resignation of Agent.

(a)               The Agent may be terminated at any time upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice from the Lead Securitization Note Holder. In the event that the Agent is terminated pursuant to this Section 30, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination.

(b)               The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. Citi, as Initial Agent, may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of Citi without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of such Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement.

Section 31.            Resizing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (but subject to the Servicing Standard), for so long as any Initial Note Holder or an affiliate thereof (an “Original Entity”) is the owner of all or any portion of a Note that is not included in a Securitization (the “Owned Note”), such Original Entity shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated notes or additional notes (in either case, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of the Owned Note to such New Notes; or severing the Owned Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the Owned Note provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the aggregate principal of the Owned Note prior to such amendments, (ii) all Notes continue to have the same weighted average interest rate as the Notes prior to such amendments, (iii) all Notes pay pro rata and on a pari passu basis and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement, (iv) the Original Entity holding the New Notes shall notify each other Note Holder, the Lead Securitization Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the

47

Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing of such modified allocations and principal amounts, and (v) the execution of such amendments and New Notes does not violate the Servicing Standard. Each New Note shall constitute a “Note” hereunder without any further act or deed. If the Lead Securitization Note Holder so requests, the Original Entity holding the New Notes (and any subsequent holder of such Notes) shall execute a confirmation of the continuing applicability of this Agreement to the New Notes, as so modified. Except for the foregoing reallocation and for modifications pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as discussed in Section 5), no Note may be modified or amended without the consent of its holder and the consent of the holder of each other Note. In connection with the foregoing (provided the conditions set forth in (i) through (v) above are satisfied, with respect to (i) through (iv), as certified by the Original Entity, on which certification the Master Servicer can rely), the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and directed to execute amendments to the Mortgage Loan Documents and (if the Original Entity so requests and directs) this Agreement on behalf of any or all of the Note Holders, as applicable, solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal and that each New Note shall be a “Note” hereunder and for the purpose of adding and modifying any definitions related thereto. If the Controlling Note is involved in any resizing contemplated by this Section 31, the applicable Note Holder shall be entitled to designate any one of the related New Notes as the Controlling Note, and the definitions of “Controlling Note” and “Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly. Any New Note that is created in a resizing contemplated by this Section 31 and is not the Controlling Note shall be deemed to be a Non-Controlling Note under this Agreement, the definitions of “Non-Controlling Note” and “Non-Controlling Note Holder” shall be deemed to have been revised accordingly to include such New Notes, and the applicable Note Holders of such Non-Controlling Notes shall have the same rights and responsibilities as all other Non-Controlling Note Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree and acknowledge that neither a modification or amendment to this Agreement nor a Rating Agency Confirmation shall be required in connection with the exercise of any rights under this Section 31.

The Servicing Agreement may provide for the application of Penalty Charges paid in respect of the Mortgage Loan to be used to (i) pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer for interest accrued on any Property Advances, (ii) to pay the parties to any Securitization for interest accrued on any P&I Advance, (iii) to pay certain other expenses incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan and (iv) to pay to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

4.                  Workout. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Servicing Agreement and Section 13 of this Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the Mortgage Loan Principal Balance is decreased, (ii) the Mortgage Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note is waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal priorities of Note A-1, Note A-2, Note A-3, Note A-4 and Note A-5 as described in Section 3.

5.                  Accounts; Payment Procedure. The Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain the Collection Account or Collection Accounts, as applicable. Each of the Holders hereby directs the Master Servicer, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 hereof, and subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, (i) to deposit into the applicable Collection Account within the time period specified in the Servicing Agreement all payments received with respect to the Mortgage Loan and (ii) to remit from the applicable Collection Account for deposit or credit on the applicable Master Servicer Remittance Date all payments received with respect to and allocable to any Note by wire transfer to accounts maintained by the related Holder; provided that delinquent payments received by the Master Servicer after the related Master Servicer Remittance Date shall be remitted by the Master Servicer to such accounts within the time period specified in the Servicing Agreement.

If any Servicer holding or having distributed any amount received or collected in respect of any Note determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount received or collected in respect of any such Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Borrower or paid to the related Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Servicer shall be required to distribute any portion thereof to the related Holder, as applicable, and any such Holder, as applicable, shall promptly on demand repay to such Servicer the portion that has been distributed to the related Holder, as applicable, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as such Servicer shall have been required to pay to the Borrower, any Holder, any Servicer or such other person or entity with respect thereto. Each of the Holders agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share

-17-

thereof, it will promptly remit such excess to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from such Holder, as applicable, with respect to the Mortgage Loan, against any future payments due such Holder, as applicable, under the Mortgage Loan, provided, that the obligations of each Holder under this Section 5 are separate and distinct obligations from one another and in no event shall any Servicer enforce the obligations of any Holder against any other Holder. The obligations of each Holder under this Section 5 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations and each Servicer shall be deemed a third-party beneficiary of these provisions.

6.                  Limitation on Liability. Subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, no Holder (including the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on its behalf) shall have any liability to any other Holder with respect to any Note, except (1) with respect to the Advance reimbursement provisions set forth in Section 17 and (2) with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or material breach of this Agreement on the part of such Holder (including the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on its behalf, except that the Master Servicer’s or Special Servicer’s liability may be further limited or expanded as set forth in the Servicing Agreement).

7.                  Representations of the Holders. (a)  Each of the Holders hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with each other Holder that, as of the date hereof (or, in connection with a new Holder of a Note following a Transfer, as of the date of such Transfer):

(i)                         It is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State under which it is organized.

(ii)                     The execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Holder, and performance of, and compliance with, the terms of this Agreement by such Holder, will not violate its organizational documents or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the breach of, any material agreement or other instrument to which it is a party or that is applicable to it or any of its assets, in each case which materially and adversely affect its ability to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(iii)                  Such Holder has the full power and authority to enter into and consummate all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, has duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement.

(iv)                 This Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Holder enforceable against such Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law.

-18-

(v)                     It has the right to enter into this Agreement without the consent of any third party.

(vi)                  It is the holder of the respective Note for its own account in the ordinary course of its business.

(vii)               It has not dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent or other person, that may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(viii)            It is a Qualified Transferee.

8.                  Independent Analyses of each Holder. Each Holder acknowledges that, except for the representations made in Section 7, it has, independently and without reliance upon any other Holders and based on such documents and information as such Holder has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to purchase its respective Note. Each Holder hereby acknowledges that the other Holders shall have no responsibility for (i) the collectability of the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the validity, enforceability or legal effect of any of the Mortgage Loan Documents or the title insurance policy or policies or any survey furnished or to be furnished in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, (iii) the validity, sufficiency or effectiveness of the lien created or to be created by the Mortgage Loan Documents, or (iv) the financial condition of the Borrower. Each Holder assumes all risk of loss in connection with its respective Note for reasons other than gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement by any other Holder or negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith by any Servicer, subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement.

9.                  No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute among any Holder (or the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee on its behalf) and any other Holder a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. Each Holder (or the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee on its behalf) shall have no obligation whatsoever to offer to the other Holders the opportunity to purchase notes or interests relating to any future loans originated by such Holder or any of its Affiliates, and if any Holder chooses to offer to any of the other Holders, the opportunity to purchase notes or interests in any future mortgage loans originated by such Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. None of the Holders shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from any other Holder any notes or interests in any future loans originated by any other Holder or any of its Affiliates.

10.              Not a Security. None of the Notes shall be deemed to be a security within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

11.              Other Business Activities of the Holders. Each Holder acknowledges that the other Holders may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Borrower Party Affiliate, and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to any Borrower Party Affiliate and otherwise act with respect thereto freely

-19-

and without accountability, but only if none of the foregoing violate the Mortgage Loan Documents, in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

12.              Transfer of Notes. (a)  Each Holder may Transfer up to 49% (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in its Note whether or not the related transferee is a Qualified Transferee without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Each Holder shall not Transfer more than 49% (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in its Note unless (i) prior to a Securitization of any Note, the other Holders have consented to such Transfer, in which case the related transferee shall thereafter be deemed to be a “Qualified Transferee” for all purposes under this Agreement, (ii) after a Securitization of any Note, a Rating Agency Confirmation has been received with respect to such Transfer, in which case the related transferee shall thereafter be deemed to be a “Qualified Transferee” for all purposes under this Agreement, (iii) such Transfer is to a Qualified Transferee or (iv) such Transfer is in connection with a sale by a Securitization Trust; provided that if such Transfer is a Transfer of the Lead Note, such Transfer is to a Qualified Transferee. Any such transferee (except in the case of Transfers that are made in connection with a Securitization) hereby assumes the obligations of the transferring Holder hereunder and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement and (ii) remakes each of the representations and warranties contained herein for the benefit of the other Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without each non-transferring Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if such non-transferring Holder’s Note is in a Securitization, without a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency that has been engaged by the Depositor to rate the securities issued in connection with such Securitization, no Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note to the Borrower or a Borrower Party Affiliate and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. None of the provisions of this Section 12(a) shall apply in the case of a sale of Note A-1, Note A-2, Note A-3 and Note A-4 together with Note A-5, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization PSA.

(b)               Except for a Transfer made in connection with a Securitization, or a Transfer made by a Holder to an Affiliate, at least five (5) days prior to a transfer of any Note, the transferring Holder shall provide notice to the other Holders and, if any Certificates are outstanding, to the Rating Agencies, that such transfer will be made in accordance with this Section 12 and such notice shall include (1) the name and contact information of the transferee and (2) if requested, a certification by the transferee that it is a Qualified Transferee.

(c)               The Holders acknowledge and agree that, to the extent Rating Agency Confirmation is specifically required, any Rating Agency Confirmation may be granted or denied by the Rating Agencies in their sole and absolute discretion and that such Rating Agencies may charge the transferring Holder customary fees in connection with providing such Rating Agency Confirmation.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each Holder may pledge or transfer (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than the Borrower or any Borrower Party Affiliate) that has extended a credit facility to such Holder or has entered into a repurchase agreement with such Holder and that, in each case, is either a Qualified Transferee or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the

-20-

equivalent) or better by each Rating Agency (a “Note Pledgee”), or to a Person with respect to which a Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained, on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 12(d), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to any Holder or any Affiliate that controls such Holder that is secured by such Holder’s interest in its respective Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder on the condition that all applicable terms and conditions of this Section 12 are complied with. A Note Pledgee that is not a Qualified Transferee may not take title to a Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice, if any, by the pledging Holder to the other Holders and the Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable Note Pledgee), the other Holders agree to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agree: (i) to give such Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Holder has actual knowledge and which notice shall be given simultaneously with the giving of such notice to the pledging Holder; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) Business Days to cure a default by the pledging Holder in respect of its obligations to the other Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement (if the pledging Holder had the right to consent to such amendment, modification, waiver or termination pursuant to the terms hereof) shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to be given if Note Pledgee shall fail to respond to any request for consent to any such amendment, modification, waiver or termination within 10 days after request therefor; (iv) that the other Holders shall accept any cure by such Note Pledgee of any default of the pledging Holder which such pledging Holder has the right to effect hereunder, as if such cure were made by such pledging Holder; (v) that the other Holder or Servicer shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the other Holders; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to the Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Holder is in default beyond any applicable cure periods with respect to the pledging Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement or other agreements relating to the Pledge between the pledging Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee (or at any time that pledging Holder otherwise directs that such payment be made to Note Pledgee pursuant to a separate notice) shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Servicer would otherwise be obligated to make to the pledging Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases the other Holders and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Holder on account of any Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or other Holders in good faith to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Holder (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law, the pledge agreement, repurchase agreement or similar agreement between the pledging Holder and the Note Pledgee and this Agreement. In such event, or if the pledging holder otherwise assigns its interests to the Note Pledgee, the other Holders and the Servicer shall recognize

-21-

such Note Pledgee (and any transferee (other than the Borrower or any Borrower Party Affiliate) that is also a Qualified Transferee at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and such Person’s successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Transferee shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 12(d) shall remain effective as to any Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified such Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

13.              Exercise of Remedies by the Servicer. (a)  Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Directing Holder, the Servicer shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole and exclusive authority to (i) modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, (ii) consent to any action or failure to act by the Borrower or any party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, (iii) vote all claims with respect to the Mortgage Loan in any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceedings and (iv) to take legal action to enforce or protect the Holders’ interests with respect to the Mortgage Loan or to refrain from exercising any powers or rights under the Mortgage Loan Documents, including the right at any time to call or waive any Events of Default, or accelerate or refrain from accelerating the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action, and the Holders shall have no voting, consent or other rights whatsoever with respect to the Servicer’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan other than as provided in the Servicing Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall have the sole and exclusive authority to make Property Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Holder agrees that it shall have no right to, and hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Servicer the rights, if any, that such Holder has to (A) call or cause the Servicer to call an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (B) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Borrower, including, without limitation, filing or causing the Lead Note Holder or such Servicer to file any bankruptcy petition against the Borrower. Each Holder shall, from time to time, execute such documents as any Servicer shall reasonably require to evidence such assignment with respect to the rights described in clause (iii) of the first sentence in this Section 13(a).

(b)               The Lead Servicer and the related Trustee shall not have any fiduciary duty to the Non-Lead Note Holders in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Servicer and the related Trustee from their respective obligation under the Servicing Agreement to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or therein).

(c)               The Holders hereby acknowledge and agree that the Servicing Agreement shall provide that, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the next sentence, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Mortgage Loan, if the Special

-22-

Servicer determines to sell the Defaulted Mortgage Loan (or the Lead Note), it will be required to sell the entire Defaulted Mortgage Loan as a single whole loan (i.e., both the Lead Note and Non-Lead Notes). Any such sale of the entire Defaulted Mortgage Loan is subject to the satisfaction of the following:

(i)                        The Non-Directing Holders have provided written consent to such sale (to the extent the related Note with respect to the Non-Directing Holders is not included in the same Securitization as the related Note with respect to the Directing Holder); or

(ii)                     The Special Servicer has delivered the following notices and information to the Non-Directing Holders (to the extent the related Note with respect to the Non-Directing Holders is not included in the same Securitization as the Note with respect to the Directing Holder):

(1)               at least 15 Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Defaulted Mortgage Loan;

(2)               at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any material amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale;

(3)               at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File requested by a Non-Lead Note Holder; and

(4)               until the sale is completed and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Directing Holder) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale.

Any Non-Directing Holder may waive any delivery or timing requirements set forth above only for itself. Subject to the foregoing, each of the Lead Note Holder, the Directing Holder, the Non-Lead Note Holders(to the extent the related Non-Lead Note is not included in the Lead Securitization) and the Non-Directing Holders shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Defaulted Mortgage Loan (unless such Person is the Borrower or an agent or Borrower Party Affiliate).

Each Non-Lead Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Note Holder) hereby appoints the Lead Note Holder as their agent, and grant to the Lead Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of the Non-Lead Notes. Each Non-Lead Note Holder further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Note Holder, such Non-Lead Note Holders shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of Lead Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following

-23-

such request, and shall deliver the related original Non-Lead Note, endorsed in blank, to or at the direction of the Lead Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority of the Lead Note Holder to sell the Non-Lead Notes, and the obligations of the Non-Lead Note Holders to execute and deliver instruments or deliver the Non-Lead Notes upon request of the Lead Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Note is repurchased by the Lead Note Seller from the trust fund established under the Servicing Agreement in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by the Lead Note Seller with respect to the Lead Note or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by the Lead Note Seller with respect to the Lead Note upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the exercise by the Servicer on behalf of the Holders of its rights under this Section 13 shall be subject in all respects to any section of the Servicing Agreement governing REMIC administration, and in no event shall the Servicer be permitted to take any action or refrain from taking any action if taking or failing to take such action, as the case may be, would violate the laws of any applicable jurisdiction, breach the Mortgage Loan Documents or be inconsistent with the Servicing Standard or violate any other provisions of the Servicing Agreement or violate the REMIC Provisions of the Code or any regulations promulgated thereunder, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 2(g) of this Agreement.

14.              Rights of the Directing Holder. (a) The Directing Holder shall be entitled to exercise the rights and powers granted to the Directing Holder hereunder and the rights and powers granted to the “Directing Holder,” “Controlling Class Certificateholder,” “Controlling Class Representative” or similar party under, and as defined in, the Servicing Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loan. In addition, the Directing Holder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters related to a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and (2) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters for which the Master Servicer must obtain the consent or deemed consent of the Special Servicer, and, except as set forth below (i) the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to take any Major Action unless it has obtained the prior written consent of the Special Servicer and (ii) the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to consent to the Master Servicer’s taking any Major Action nor will the Special Servicer itself be permitted to take any Major Action as to which the Directing Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or 30 days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after receipt of the written recommendation and analysis and such additional information requested by the Directing Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Directing Holder in order to make a judgment with respect to such Major Action. The Directing Holder may also direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Directing Holder may deem advisable, subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement.

(b)       If the Directing Holder fails to notify the Special Servicer of its approval or disapproval of any proposed Major Action within ten (10) Business Days (or 30 days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after delivery to the Directing Holder by the applicable Servicer of written notice of a proposed Major Action together with any information requested by the Directing Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Directing Holder in order to make a judgment, then upon the expiration of such ten (10)

-24-

Business Day (or 30 days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) period, such Major Action shall be deemed to have been approved by the Directing Holder.

(c)       In the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by the Servicing Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any other matter requiring consent of the Directing Holder is necessary to protect the interests of the Holders (as a collective whole) and the Special Servicer has made a reasonable effort to contact the Directing Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Directing Holder’s response.

(d)       No objection, direction or advice contemplated by the preceding paragraphs may require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of the Mortgage Loan Documents, applicable law, the Servicing Agreement, this Agreement, the REMIC Provisions of the Code or the Master Servicer or Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard or expose the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to liability, or materially expand the scope of the Master Servicer’s or the Special Servicer’s responsibilities under the Servicing Agreement.

(e)       The Directing Holder shall have no liability to the other Holders or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence or material breach of this Agreement. The Holders agree that the Directing Holder may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Holder over the other Holder, and that the Directing Holder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of another Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Directing Holder agree to take no action against the Directing Holder or any of its officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that the Directing Holder will not be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Holder.

The Holders acknowledge that the Servicing Agreement may contain certain provisions that give any operating advisor certain non-binding consultation rights with respect to Major Actions.

15.              Appointment of Special Servicer. Subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement, the Directing Holder shall have the right at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a Qualified Servicer as the replacement Special Servicer in lieu thereof. The Directing Holders shall designate a Person to serve as Special Servicer by delivering to the other Holder (including, to the extent a Note is included in a Securitization, the parties to the related PSA) a written notice stating such designation and by satisfying the other conditions required under the

-25-

Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, a Rating Agency Confirmation, if required by the terms of the Servicing Agreement), if any.

16.              Rights of the Non-Directing Holders. (a) The Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Servicer shall be required:

(i)                         to provide copies of the same notices, information and reports that it is required to provide to the Directing Holder pursuant to the Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Actions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan to the Non-Directing Holders (but without regard to whether or not the Directing Holder actually has lost any rights to receive such information as a result of a Consultation Termination Event), within the same time frame as specified with respect to the Directing Holder (but without regard to whether or not the Directing Holder actually has lost any rights to receive such information as a result of a Consultation Termination Event), provided, however, that if a Non-Lead Note has been included in a Securitization, then for any information for which the Special Servicer would be required to provide to such Non-Directing Holder, the Special Servicer shall provide such notice to the master servicer of the other Securitization transaction, who shall forward such notice as and when required under the terms of the related Securitization documents; and

(ii)                      to consult with the Non-Directing Holders on a strictly non-binding basis, if, having received such notices, information and reports, such Non-Directing Holder requests consultation with respect to any such Major Action or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such Non-Directing Holder; provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to the Non-Directing Holders of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Directing Holder, the Servicer shall no longer be obligated to consult with the Non-Directing Holders, whether or not the Non-Directing Holders have responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless the Servicer proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto).

(b)               Notwithstanding the foregoing non-binding consultation rights of the Non-Directing Holders, the Servicer may take any Major Action or any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Servicer determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Holders.

(c)               In addition to the foregoing non-binding consultation rights, the Non-Directing Holders shall have the right to participate in annual conference calls with the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.

-26-

(d)               In no event shall the Servicer be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by the Non-Directing Holders.

(e)               Any Non-Directing Holder that is the Borrower or a Borrower Party Affiliate shall not be entitled to any of the rights set forth in this Section 16.

17.              Advances; Reimbursement of Advances. (a)  From time to time, (i) pursuant to terms of the Servicing Agreement, the Lead Servicer and/or the related Trustee may be obligated to make (1) Property Advances with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property and (2) P&I Advances with respect to the Lead Note and any other Note contributed to the Lead Securitization and (ii) pursuant to the terms of the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement, the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and/or the related Trustee may be obligated to make P&I Advances with respect to a Non-Lead Note. The Lead Servicer and/or the related Trustee will not be required to make any P&I Advance with respect to any Non-Lead Note (other than any Non-Lead Note contributed to the Lead Securitization) and the related Non-Lead Master Servicer and/or the related Trustee will not be required to make any P&I Advance with respect to the Lead Note, any other Non-Lead Note or any Property Advance. The Lead Servicer, each Non-Lead Master Servicer and any Trustee will be entitled to interest on any Advance made in the manner and from the sources provided in the applicable PSA.

(b)               The Lead Servicer and the related Trustee, as applicable, will be entitled to reimbursement for a Property Advance, first from the Collection Account established with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and then, if such Property Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance, if such funds on deposit in the Collection Account are insufficient, from general collections of the Lead Securitization as provided in the Servicing Agreement.

(c)               To the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to the Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the Lead Servicer for any Property Advance and/or interest thereon and the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee, as applicable, obtains funds from general collections of the Lead Securitization as a reimbursement for a Property Advance or interest thereon, the Non-Lead Note Holder of any Non-Lead Note not deposited into the Lead Securitization (including any Securitization into which any Non-Lead Note is deposited) shall be required to, promptly following notice from the Lead Servicer, pay to the Lead Securitization for its pro rata share of such Property Advance and/or interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate. In addition, the Non-Lead Note Holders (including any Securitization into which the Non-Lead Note is deposited) shall promptly reimburse the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee for such Non-Lead Note Holder’s pro rata share of any fees, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loan as to which the Lead Securitization or any of the parties thereto are entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreement (to the extent amounts on deposit in the Collection Account with respect to the Mortgage Loan are insufficient for reimbursement of such amounts).

(d)               The parties to each PSA shall each be entitled to make their own recoverability determination with respect to a P&I Advance based on the information that they have on hand and in accordance with such applicable PSA.

-27-

(e)               If the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee elects to defer the reimbursement of a Property Advance in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement, the Lead Servicer or the related Trustee shall also defer its reimbursement of each Non-Lead Note share from the Non-Lead Note Holders.

18.              Provisions Relating to Securitization.

(a) New Notes. For so long as a Note is not included in a Securitization, the Holder of such Note (the “Resizing Holder”) shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Borrower to execute amended and restated notes (“Amended Notes”) or additional notes (“New Notes”) reallocating the principal of the Note or Notes that it owns (but in no case any Note that it does not then own) among Amended Notes and New Notes or severing a Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the Note or Notes being amended or created, provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of the Amended Notes and New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the principal balance of the Amended Notes and New Notes prior to such amendments, (ii) all New Notes continue to have the same interest rate as the Amended Note of which it was a part prior to such amendments, (iii) all New Notes pay pro rata and on a pari passu basis with the Amended Notes and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement and (iv) the Resizing Holder holding the New Notes shall notify each other Holder, as applicable, and, if any other Note has been included in a securitization, the parties under each applicable PSA, in writing (which may be by email) of such modified allocations and principal amounts. In connection with the foregoing, (1) the Master Servicer is hereby authorized to execute amendments to the Loan Agreement and this Agreement (or to amend and restate the Loan Agreement and this Agreement) on behalf of any or all of the Holders solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal or such severing of a Note, (2) if a Note is severed into “component” notes, such component notes shall each have their same rights as the respective original Note, (3) the definition of the term “Securitization” and all of the related defined terms may be amended (and new terms added, as necessary) to reflect the New Notes and (4) if Note A-5 is severed into “component” notes, another note (or one of the New Notes) may be substituted for Note A-5 in the definition of “Directing Holder” and the definitions of “Lead Note” and “Lead Securitization” and “Non-Directing Holder” will be revised accordingly. Neither Rating Agency Confirmation nor approval of the Directing Holder shall be required for any amendments to this Agreement required to facilitate the terms of this Section 18(a). The Resizing Holder whose Note is being reallocated or split pursuant to this Section 18(a) shall reimburse the other Holders for all costs and expenses incurred by the other Holders in connection with the reallocation or split.

(b)               Each Non-Lead Note Holder agrees that (unless the Non-Lead Note and the Lead Note are included in the same Securitization) it shall cause the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement to provide as follows:

(i)                         the applicable master servicer or Trustee for such Securitization shall be required to notify the master servicer, special servicer and Trustee of each other Securitization of the amount of any P&I Advance it has made with respect to the Note included in such Securitization within two Business Days of making such advance;

-28-

(ii)                      if the applicable master servicer, special servicer or Trustee determines that a proposed P&I Advance, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a nonrecoverable advance, the master servicer shall provide the other servicers written notice of such determination within 2 Business Days after such determination was made;

(iii)                   in the event the Non-Lead Note Holders are responsible for their proportionate share of any Nonrecoverable Advances (or any other portion of a Nonrecoverable Advance) (and advance interest thereon) or other fee or expense pursuant to Section 17 and funds received with respect to such Non-Lead Note are insufficient to cover such amounts, (x) the related master servicer will be required to pay the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee under the Servicing Agreement, as applicable, out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non-Lead Servicing Agreement and (y) if the Servicing Agreement permits the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee under the Servicing Agreement to pay itself from the Lead Securitization Trust’s general account then the master servicer under the related Non-Lead Servicing Agreement will be required to reimburse the Lead Securitization Trust out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non-Lead Servicing Agreement;

(iv)                 each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be indemnified (as and to the same extent the Lead Securitization Trust is required to indemnify each such party) against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses, incurred in connection with any PSA that relate solely to its servicing of the Mortgage Loan, as applicable, and the master servicer under the related Non-Lead Servicing Agreement will be required to reimburse the Master Servicer, Special Servicer or Trustee under the Servicing Agreement, as applicable, out of general funds in the collection account (or equivalent account) established under the related Non-Lead Servicing Agreement;

(v)                    each of the Trustee and the master servicer under the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement, as applicable, shall acknowledge that, (i) each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee under the Servicing Agreement will be a third party beneficiary under the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement with respect to any provisions therein relating to (1) the reimbursement of any nonrecoverable advances made with respect to such Non-Lead Note by the Master Servicer or the Trustee under the Servicing Agreement and (2) as to the Master Servicer only, the indemnification of the Master Servicer against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses, incurred in connection with any PSA and relating to such Non-Lead Note and (ii) the Special Servicer will be a third party beneficiary under the related Non-Lead Servicing Agreement with respect to any provisions therein relating to (1) the reimbursement of any nonrecoverable advances made with respect to such Non-Lead Note by the Special Servicer (it being understood that the Special Servicer is not required to make any Advances) and (2) the indemnification of the Special Servicer against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses, incurred in connection with any PSA and relating to such Non-Lead Note; and

-29-

(vi)                  the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Lead Securitization Trust shall be third party beneficiaries of the foregoing provisions.

(c)               Notice to Parties to the Servicing Agreement.

(i)                        The Holder of the Lead Note shall provide the Depositor, the Servicer and the Special Servicer under the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement (as of the Note A-5 Securitization Date) (provided such party is not also a party to the Lead Securitization PSA) notice of the Lead Securitization in writing (which may be by email) prior to or promptly following the Note A-5 Securitization Date. Unless accompanied by the Lead Securitization PSA, such notice shall contain contact information for each of the parties to the Lead Securitization PSA and the identity of the Controlling Class Representative under such Lead Securitization PSA. In addition, after the Note A-5 Securitization Date, the Lead Note Holder shall send a copy of the Lead Securitization PSA to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Special Servicer under each Non-Lead Servicing Agreement (as of the Note A-5 Securitization Date) provided such party is not also a party to the Lead Securitization PSA.

(ii)                      Each Non-Lead Note Holder shall provide the Depositor, the Servicer, and the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization PSA (as of the closing date of the related Securitization) (provided such party is not also a party to the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement) notice of the Securitization in writing (which may be by email) prior to or promptly following the closing date of the related Securitization. Such notice shall contain contact information for each of the parties to the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement and the identity of the Non-Directing Holders under the Securitization. In addition, after the closing date of the related Securitization, each Non-Lead Note Holder shall send a copy of the related Non-Lead Servicing Agreement to the Depositor, the Servicer, and the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization PSA (provided such party is not also a party to such Non-Lead Servicing Agreement).

(d)               The Lead Securitization PSA shall:

(i)                         provide that the Master Servicer and Trustee for such Securitization shall be required to notify the servicer, special servicer and Trustee of each other Securitization of the amount of any P&I Advance it has made with respect to the Note included in such Securitization within two Business Days of making such advance;

(ii)                      provide that if the Master Servicer or Trustee determines that a proposed P&I Advance, if made, or any outstanding P&I Advance previously made, would be, or is, as applicable, a nonrecoverable advance, the Master Servicer shall provide the other servicers written notice of such determination within two Business Days after such determination was made;

(iii)                   provide that the Master Servicer shall remit all payments received (or advanced) with respect to any Non-Lead Note (other than any Non-Lead Note deposited into the Lead Securitization as to which payments shall be applied as provided in the Servicing Agreement), net of its Servicing Fee (calculated at the “primary servicing fee

-30-

rate” as set forth in the Servicing Agreement) and any other applicable fees and reimbursements payable to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee, to the Non-Lead Holder on the applicable Master Servicer Remittance Date;

(iv)                  provide that the Master Servicer agrees to make available to the master servicer under a Non-Lead Servicing Agreement the CREFC^® Investor Reporting Package^® pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreement on a monthly basis on the applicable Master Servicer Remittance Date;

(v)                     provide that the Master Servicer, any primary servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee for the Lead Securitization, certificate administrator or other party acting as custodian for the Lead Securitization shall be required to deliver (and shall be required to cause each other servicer and servicing function participant (within the meaning of Items 1123 and 1122, respectively, of Regulation AB) retained or engaged by it to deliver), to the parties to any Non-Lead Servicing Agreement, at its own expense, in a timely manner, the reports, certifications, compliance statements, accountants’ assessments and attestations, information to be included in reports (including, without limitation, Form 15G, Form 10-K, Form 10-D, Form 8-K), notices, and other materials specified in each of the other Servicing Agreements as the parties to each Non-Lead Securitization may require in order to comply with (1) their obligations under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (including Rule 15Ga-1), as amended, and Regulation AB, and any other applicable law and (2) any applicable comment letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission or its obligations with respect to any deficient Exchange Act receivable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lead Note Holder for a Lead Securitization shall provide in a timely manner to the depositor and the Trustee for any other Securitization a copy of the Lead Securitization PSA and each Lead Servicer (at the expense of the Lead Note Holder) will be required to provide to the depositor and the Trustee for any other Securitization any other information required to comply in a timely manner with applicable filing requirements under Items 1.01 and 6.02 of Form 8-K, any other disclosure information required pursuant to Regulation AB in a timely manner for inclusion in any disclosure document (and, with respect to the Servicing Agreement, for filing under Form 8-K), and with respect to the Lead Servicers, upon prior written request, market indemnification agreements, opinions and Regulation AB compliance letters as were or are being delivered with respect to the Lead Securitization. To the extent a Lead Servicer (or a primary or sub-servicer servicing the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Servicing Agreement) is required by a Non-Lead Securitization party to deliver disclosure information pursuant to Regulation AB in a future Securitization and, if such Lead Servicer is not also the Non-Lead Master Servicer, the applicable special servicer or other party to the related Non-Lead Servicing Agreement, or a primary servicer who is a servicing function participant, or an Affiliate of the Mortgage Loan Seller or material relationship in connection with such future Securitization, and therefore is not already providing such information in connection with the future Securitization, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall be responsible for costs related to compliance with the related requirements of Regulation AB. As used in this Agreement, “Regulation AB” means Subpart 229.1100 – Asset Backed Securities (Regulation AB), 17 C.F.R. §§  229.1100-229.1125, as such may be amended from time to time, and subject to such

(vi)                  provide that the servicing duties of each of the Master Servicer and Special Servicer under the Servicing Agreement shall include the duty to service the Non-Lead Notes on behalf of the related Note Holders (including the related Trustees and related Certificate holders) in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and that any conflict between the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement shall be resolved in favor of this Agreement;

(vii)               provide that, with respect to any/each Non-Lead Note (other than any Non-Lead Note deposited into the Lead Securitization as to which payments shall be withdrawn and remitted as provided in the Servicing Agreement), the Master Servicer shall withdraw from the related Collection Account and remit to the Holder of the Non-Lead Note, within one (1) Business Day of receipt of properly identified and available funds, any amounts that represent late collections or principal prepayments on such Non-Lead Note or any successor REO Property with respect thereto (exclusive of any portion of such amount payable or reimbursable to any third party in accordance with this Agreement), unless such amount would otherwise be included in the monthly remittance to the Holder of such Non-Lead Note for such month; provided, however, that to the extent any such amounts are received after 3:00 p.m. Eastern time on any given Business Day, the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remit such late collections or principal prepayments to the Non-Lead Master Servicer within one Business Day of receipt of properly identified and available funds but, in any event, the Master Servicer shall remit such amounts within two Business Days of receipt of properly identified funds;

(viii)            provide that the Non-Lead Note Holders (other than any Non-Lead Note Holder which is a direct party to the Servicing Agreement) are intended third-party beneficiaries in respect of the rights afforded it under the Servicing Agreement and the master servicer under each Non-Lead Servicing Agreement will be entitled to enforce the rights of the related Trustee with respect to such Non-Lead Note under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement;

(ix)                    provide that each master servicer and special servicer under any Non-Lead Servicing Agreement shall be a third-party beneficiary of the Servicing Agreement with respect to all provisions therein expressly relating to compensation, reimbursement or indemnification of such master servicer or special servicer, as the case may be, and the provisions regarding coordination of Advances;

-32-

(x)                       provide that it shall not be amended in a manner that materially and adversely affects the rights of the Non-Lead Note Holders (other than any Non-Lead Note Holder which is a direct party to the Servicing Agreement) without their consent;

(xiii)              provide that “servicer termination events” (or any analogous term under the Servicing Agreement) include customary market termination events with respect to failure to make advances, failure to remit payments to the Non-Lead Note Holders as required, failure to deliver (or cause to be delivered) materials or information required in order for the Non-Lead Note Holders or the depositor under a related Non-Lead Servicing Agreement to timely comply with its obligations under the Exchange Act, the Securities Act or Form SF-3, and for rating agency triggers with respect to any Certificates, subject to customary grace periods (provided that, in the case of failures related to the securities laws, such grace periods will not cause a depositor under a Non-Lead Servicing Agreement to fail to comply with the applicable provisions of such securities laws). Upon the occurrence of such a servicer termination event with respect to the Master Servicer affecting the Non-Lead Note Holders and the Master Servicer is not otherwise terminated pursuant to the Lead Securitization PSA, the Master Servicer shall be required, upon the direction of the Non-Lead Note Holders, to appoint a subservicer with respect to the applicable Non-Lead Note. Upon the occurrence of a servicer termination event with respect to the Special Servicer affecting the Non-Lead Note Holders and the Special Servicer is not otherwise terminated pursuant to the Lead Securitization PSA, the Trustee shall, upon direction of the Non-Lead Note Holders, terminate the Special Servicer with respect to, but only with respect to, the Mortgage Loan;

(xiv)             provide that if a Non-Lead Note becomes the subject of an Asset Review under the Non-Lead Servicing Agreement, the applicable parties to the Servicing Agreement are required to reasonably cooperate with the related asset representations reviewer or other applicable party to such Non-Lead Servicing Agreement in connection with such Asset Review, including with respect to providing access to related underlying

(xv)                provide that the Non-Lead Note Holders shall be entitled to the same indemnity as the Lead Note Holder under the Lead Securitization PSA with respect to the following items; each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the certificate administrator, the operating advisor, and the custodian shall be required to indemnify each certifying person and the Depositor under any Non-Lead Servicing Agreement, and their respective directors and officers and controlling persons, to the same extent that they indemnify the Depositor of the Lead Securitization (in its capacity as such) and each certifying person for (i) its failure to deliver the items in clauses (v) and (xiii) above in a timely manner, (ii) its failure to perform its obligations to such Depositor of a Non-Lead Securitization or Trustee of a Non-Lead Securitization under the Reporting Article (or any article substantially similar thereto) of the Lead Securitization PSA by the time required after giving effect to any applicable grace period or cure period, (iii) the failure of any servicer or servicing function participant retained by it to perform its obligations to such Depositor of a Non-Lead Securitization or Trustee of a Non-Lead Securitization under such the Reporting Article (or any article substantially similar thereto) of the Lead Securitization PSA by the time required and/or (iv) any deficient Securities Exchange Act of 1934 report regarding, and delivered by or on behalf of, such party;

(xviii)       to the extent related to the Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, Rating Agency Confirmation and Rating Agency communications shall be provided with respect to the Certificates issued in connection with the Non-Lead Securitization to the same extent provided with respect to the Certificates issued in connection with the Lead Securitization;

-34-

(e)       The Holder of any Note that, upon the closing of the Securitization of such Note, will constitute the Lead Note under this Agreement shall:

(i)                        give the other Note Holders (except any Holder of any other Note included in such Securitization) notice of such Securitization in writing (which may be by email) not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the applicable pricing date for such Securitization, together with contact information for each of the parties to the related PSA;

THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES THEREOF.

Each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee, any Non-Lead Master Servicer and any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, shall only be entitled to reimbursement for a P&I Advance that becomes non-recoverable (and interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate) first from the related Companion Distribution Account from amounts allocable to the Note for which such P&I Advance was made, and then, if such funds are insufficient, (i) in the case of the Lead Securitization Note(s), from general collections of the Lead Securitization Trust, pursuant to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the case of a Non-Lead

Section 3.                Priority of Payments. Each Note shall be of equal priority, and no portion of any Note shall have priority or preference over any portion of any other Note or security therefor.

required reserves or escrows required by the Mortgage Loan Documents (to the extent and in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents) to be held as reserves or escrows or received as reimbursements on account of recoveries in respect of property protection expenses or Servicing Advances then due and payable or reimbursable to the Trustee or any Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall be applied to the extent set forth in, and in accordance with the terms of, the Mortgage Loan Documents; and (y) all amounts that are then due, payable or reimbursable to any Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and any other additional compensation payable to it thereunder (including without limitation, any additional trust fund expenses under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the Mortgage Loan (but subject to the second paragraph of Section 5(d) hereof) reimbursable to, or payable by, such parties and any Special Servicing Fees, Liquidation Fees, Workout Fees, Penalty Charges (to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph), but excluding (i) any P&I Advances (and interest thereon) on the Lead Securitization Note(s), which shall be reimbursed in accordance with Section 2(b) hereof, and (ii) any servicing fees due to the Master Servicer in excess of each Non-Lead Securitization Note’s pro rata share of that portion of such servicing fees calculated at the “primary servicing fee rate” applicable to the Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, which such excess shall not be subject to the allocation provisions of this Section 3) shall be payable in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

For clarification purposes, Penalty Charges (or any analogous term as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) paid on each Note shall first, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Special Servicer for any interest accrued on any Servicing Advances and reimbursement of any Servicing Advances in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, second, be used to reduce the respective amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay the Master Servicer, Trustee, any Non-Lead Master Servicer or any Non-Lead Trustee, as applicable, for any interest accrued on any P&I Advance made with respect to such Note by such party (if and as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or applicable Non-Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, as applicable), third, be used to reduce, on a pro rata basis, the amounts payable on each Note by the amount necessary to pay additional trust fund expenses under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (including Special Servicing Fees, unpaid Workout Fees and Liquidation Fees) incurred with respect to the Mortgage Loan (as specified in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) and finally, with respect to any remaining amount of Penalty Charges, be distributed (x) prior to the securitization of the Lead Securitization Note(s) or at any time the Mortgage Loan is not being serviced pursuant to a Securitization Servicing Agreement, pro rata to each Note Holder, and (y) following the securitization of the Lead Securitization Note(s), to the Master Servicer and/or the Special Servicer as additional servicing compensation as provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement.

Any proceeds received from the sale of the primary servicing rights with respect to the Mortgage Loan shall be remitted, promptly upon receipt thereof, to the Note Holders on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis. Any proceeds received by any Note Holder from the sale of master servicing rights with respect to its Note shall be for its own account. Any Note Holder that receives proceeds from the sale of the primary servicing rights with respect to the Mortgage Loan shall remit to the other Note Holders, promptly upon receipt thereof, such amounts as are required such

-25-

that each Note Holder receives its pro rata share of such proceeds on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis.

Section 4.                Workout. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and the obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard, if the Lead Securitization Note Holder, or any Servicer, in connection with a workout or proposed workout of the Mortgage Loan, modifies the terms thereof such that (i) the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan is decreased, (ii) the Interest Rate is reduced, (iii) payments of interest or principal on any Note are waived, reduced or deferred or (iv) any other adjustment is made to any of the payment terms of the Mortgage Loan, such modification shall not alter, and any modification of the Mortgage Loan Documents shall be structured to preserve, the equal priorities of each Note as described in Section 3.

Section 5.                Administration of the Mortgage Loan.

(a)               Subject to this Agreement (including but not limited to Sections 2(a) and 5(c)) and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and subject to the rights and consents, where required, of the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on its behalf) shall have the sole and exclusive authority with respect to the administration of, and exercise of rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the sole authority to modify or waive any of the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents or consent to any action or failure to act by the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any other party to the Mortgage Loan Documents, call or waive any Event of Default, accelerate the Mortgage Loan or institute any foreclosure action or other remedy, and no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any voting, consent or other rights whatsoever except as explicitly set forth herein with respect to the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s administration of, or exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to, the Mortgage Loan. Subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, no Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have any right to, and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder hereby presently and irrevocably assigns and conveys to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder) the rights, if any, that such Note Holder has to, (i) call, or cause the Lead Securitization Note Holder to call, an Event of Default under the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) exercise any remedies with respect to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loan Borrower, including, without limitation, filing, or causing the Lead Securitization Note Holder to file, any bankruptcy petition against the Mortgage Loan Borrower. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Trustee acting on its behalf) shall not have any fiduciary duty to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loan (but the foregoing shall not relieve the Lead Securitization Note Holder from the obligation to make any disbursement of funds as set forth herein or its obligation to follow the Servicing Standard (in the case of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer) or any liability for failure to do so).

Each Note Holder hereby acknowledges the right and obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder), upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan, to sell the Notes together as

-26-

notes evidencing one whole loan in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. In connection with any such sale, the Special Servicer shall sell the Notes together as notes evidencing one whole loan and shall require that all offers be submitted to the Trustee in writing. Whether any cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan shall be determined by the Special Servicer (unless the offeror is an Interested Person, in which case the Trustee shall make such determination); provided, that no offer from an Interested Person shall constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest offer received and (ii) at least two bona fide other offers are received from independent third parties. In determining whether any offer received represents a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement within the preceding nine (9)-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a new Appraisal. The Trustee shall select the appraiser conducting any such new Appraisal. In determining whether any such offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall instruct the appraiser to take into account (in addition to the results of any Appraisal or updated Appraisal that it may have obtained pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount of any delinquency on the affected Mortgage Loan, the occupancy level and physical condition of the Mortgaged Property and the state of the local economy. The Trustee may conclusively rely on the opinion of an Independent appraiser or other Independent expert in real estate matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing or investing in loans similar to the Mortgage Loan that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan, and that has been retained by the Trustee at the expense of the Holders in connection with making such determination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall not be permitted to sell the Mortgage Loan without the written consent of each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (provided that such consent is not required with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note that is held by a Borrower Party) unless the Special Servicer has delivered to each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder: (a) at least 15 Business Days prior written notice of any decision to attempt to sell the Mortgage Loan; (b) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of each bid package (together with any amendments to such bid packages) received by the Special Servicer in connection with any such proposed sale; (c) at least 10 days prior to the proposed sale date, a copy of the most recent Appraisal for the Mortgage Loan, and any documents in the Servicing File requested by such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder that are material to the sale price of the Mortgage Loan; and (d) until the sale is completed, and a reasonable period of time (but no less time than is afforded to other offerors and the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder or the Controlling Note Holder, as applicable) prior to the proposed sale date, all information and other documents being provided to other offerors and all leases or other documents that are approved by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in connection with the proposed sale. Subject to the foregoing, each Note Holder or its Note Holder Representative shall be permitted to submit an offer at any sale of the Mortgage Loan (unless such Person is a Borrower Party).

Notwithstanding anything contained in the preceding paragraph to the contrary, if the Trustee is required to determine whether a cash offer by an Interested Person constitutes a fair price, the Trustee may (at its option and at the expense of the offering Interested Person purchaser) designate an independent third party expert in real estate or commercial mortgage loan

-27-

matters with at least five (5) years’ experience in valuing loans similar to the Mortgage Loan, that has been selected with reasonable care by the Trustee to determine if such cash offer constitutes a fair price for the Mortgage Loan. If the Trustee designates such third party to make such determination, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such third party’s determination. The reasonable fees of, and the costs of all appraisals, inspection reports and broker opinions of value incurred by any such third party shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable, from the offering Interested Person.

Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) hereby appoints the Lead Securitization Note Holder as its agent, and grants to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and its proxy, for the purpose of soliciting and accepting offers for and consummating the sale of its Note. Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) further agrees that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Note Holder shall execute and deliver to or at the direction of Lead Securitization Note Holder such powers of attorney or other instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request to better assure and evidence the foregoing appointment and grant, in each case promptly following request, and shall deliver any related original documentation evidencing its Note (endorsed in blank if necessary) to or at the direction of the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the consummation of any such sale.

The authority of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to sell any Non-Lead Securitization Note, and the obligations of any other Note Holder to execute and deliver instruments or deliver the related Note upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, shall terminate and cease to be of any further force or effect upon the date, if any, upon which the Lead Securitization Note(s) are repurchased by the holder(s) of such Lead Securitization Note(s) that sold such Lead Securitization Note(s) into such Securitization from the trust fund established under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in connection with a material breach of representation or warranty made by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s) or material document defect with respect to the documents delivered by such Person with respect to the Lead Securitization Note(s) upon the consummation of the Lead Securitization. The preceding sentence shall not be construed to grant to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder the benefit of any representation or warranty made by the holder(s) of the Lead Securitization Note(s) that sold such Lead Securitization Note(s) into the Lead Securitization or any document delivery obligation imposed on such Person under any mortgage loan purchase and sale agreement, instrument of transfer or other document or instrument that may be executed or delivered by such Person in connection with the Lead Securitization.

(b)               Subject to Section 5(a), the administration of the Mortgage Loan shall be governed by this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The servicing of the Mortgage Loan shall be carried out by the Master Servicer and, if the Mortgage Loan is a Specially Serviced Loan (as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) (or to the extent otherwise provided in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement), by the Special Servicer, in each case pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall cause the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Servicing Standard,

-28-

taking into account the interests of each Note Holder. The Note Holders agree to be bound by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. All rights and obligations of the Lead Securitization Note Holder described hereunder may be exercised by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator or the Trustee on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to the extent set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall not be amended in any manner that may materially and adversely affect any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in its capacity as Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder without such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s prior written consent. Each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (unless it is a Borrower Party) shall be a third-party beneficiary to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to its rights as specifically provided for therein.

(c)               Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall (i) provide copies of any notice, information and report that it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder or Controlling Note Holder, as applicable, pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement with respect to any Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, to each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or its Note Holder Representative), within the same time frame it is required to provide to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder (for this purpose, without regard to whether such items are actually required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement due to the occurrence of a Control Termination Event or a Consultation Termination Event) and (ii) use reasonable efforts to consult with each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) on a strictly non-binding basis, to the extent having received such notices, information and reports, such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) requests consultation with respect to any such Major Decisions or the implementation of any recommended actions outlined in an Asset Status Report relating to the Mortgage Loan, and consider alternative actions recommended by such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative); provided that after the expiration of a period of ten (10) Business Days from the delivery to such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) of written notice of a proposed action, together with copies of the notice, information and report required to be provided to the Lead Securitization Directing Certificateholder, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) shall no longer be obligated to consult with such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative), whether or not such Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) has responded within such ten (10) Business Day period (unless, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf) proposes a new course of action that is materially different from the action previously proposed, in which case such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to begin anew from the date of such proposal and delivery of all information relating thereto). Notwithstanding the non-binding consultation rights of each Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) may make any Major Decision or take any action set forth in the Asset Status Report before the expiration of the

-29-

aforementioned ten (10) Business Day period if the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable) determines that immediate action with respect thereto is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders. In no event shall the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or Master Servicer or Special Servicer, acting on its behalf) be obligated at any time to follow or take any alternative actions recommended by a Non-Controlling Note Holder (or its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative).

In addition to the non-binding consultation rights provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to attend annual meetings (which may be held telephonically) with the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer acting on its behalf), upon reasonable notice and at times reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in which servicing issues related to the Mortgage Loan are discussed.

(d)               If any Note is included as an asset of a REMIC, then, any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding: (i) the Mortgage Loan shall be administered such that the Notes shall qualify at all times as (or as interests in) a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, (ii) any real property (and related personal property) acquired by or on behalf of the Note Holders pursuant to a foreclosure, exercise of a power of sale or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure of the Mortgage or lien on such property following a default on the Mortgage Loan shall be administered so that the interest of the pro rata share of each Note Holder therein shall at all times qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code and (iii) no Servicer may modify, waive or amend any provision of the Mortgage Loan, consent to or withhold consent from any action of the Mortgage Loan Borrower, or exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which the Note Holders may have under the Mortgage Loan Documents, if any such action would constitute a “significant modification” of the Mortgage Loan, within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury, more than three (3) months after the startup day of the REMIC which includes the Notes (or any portion thereof) , or would otherwise violate any REMIC Provisions applicable to a REMIC that holds any Note (or any portion thereof). Each Note Holder agrees that the provisions of this paragraph shall be effected by compliance with any REMIC Provisions in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement relating to the administration of the Mortgage Loan. Any costs and expenses of compliance with this Section 5(d), to the extent that such costs and expenses relate to the administration of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the REMIC Provisions (including any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under the REMIC Provisions or the actual payment of any REMIC tax or expense), shall be borne by all of the Note Holders collectively, each contributing on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis according to the Percentage Interest represented by each Note.

Anything herein or in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if one of the Notes is included in a REMIC and another is not, such other Note Holder shall not be required to reimburse such Note Holder or any other Person for payment of (i) any taxes imposed on such REMIC, (ii) any costs or expenses relating to the administration of such REMIC or to any determination respecting the amount, payment or avoidance of any tax under such REMIC or (iii) any advances for any of the foregoing or any interest thereon or for deficits in other items of disbursement or income resulting from the use of funds for payment of

-30-

any such taxes, costs or expenses or advances, nor shall any disbursement or payment otherwise distributable to any other Note Holder be reduced to offset or make-up any such payment or deficit.

Section 6.                Note Holder Representatives.

(a)               The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (the “Controlling Note Holder Representative”). The Controlling Note Holder shall have the right in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time to remove and replace the Controlling Note Holder Representative. When exercising its various rights under Section 5 and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Controlling Note Holder may, at its option, in each case, act through the Controlling Note Holder Representative. The Controlling Note Holder Representative may be any Person, including, without limitation, the Controlling Note Holder, any officer or employee of the Controlling Note Holder, any Affiliate of the Controlling Note Holder or any other unrelated third party (other than a Borrower Party). No such Controlling Note Holder Representative shall owe any fiduciary duty or other duty to any other Person (other than the Controlling Note Holder). All actions that are permitted to be taken by the Controlling Note Holder under this Agreement may be taken by the Controlling Note Holder Representative acting on behalf of the Controlling Note Holder. No Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator acting on behalf of the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be required to recognize any Person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until the Controlling Note Holder has notified such Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator of such appointment and, if the Controlling Note Holder Representative is not the same Person as the Controlling Note Holder, the Controlling Note Holder Representative provides any Servicer, Trustee or Certificate Administrator with written confirmation of its acceptance of such appointment (and such parties will be entitled to rely on such notice), a mailing address and e-mail address for the delivery of notices and other correspondence and a list of officers or employees of such person with whom the parties to this Agreement may deal (including their names, titles, work addresses and e-mail addresses). The Controlling Note Holder shall promptly deliver such information to any Servicer, Trustee and Certificate Administrator. None of the Servicers, Operating Advisor, Certificate Administrator and Trustee shall be required to recognize any person as a Controlling Note Holder Representative until they receive such information from the Controlling Note Holder. The Controlling Note Holder agrees to inform each such Servicer or Trustee of the then-current Controlling Note Holder Representative.

Neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder, in such capacity, will have any liability to any other Note Holder or any other Person for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action or the giving of any consent or the failure to give any consent pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or errors in judgment, absent any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence or breach of this Agreement. The Note Holders agree that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling Note Holder (whether acting in place of the Controlling Note Holder Representative when no Controlling Note Holder Representative shall have been appointed hereunder or otherwise exercising any right, power or privilege granted to the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) may take or refrain from taking actions, or give or refrain from giving consents, that favor the interests of one Note Holder over any other Note Holder, and that the Controlling Note Holder Representative and the Controlling

-31-

Note Holder may have special relationships and interests that conflict with the interests of another Note Holder and, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence or a breach of this Agreement on the part of the Controlling Note Holder Representative or the Controlling Note Holder, as the case may be, acting in such capacity, agree to take no action against the Controlling Note Holder Representative, the Controlling Note Holder or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, principals or agents as a result of such special relationships or interests, and that neither the Controlling Note Holder Representative nor the Controlling Note Holder will be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance or to have recklessly disregarded any exercise of its rights, or to have breached this Agreement, by reason of its having acted or refrained from acting, or having given any consent or having failed to give any consent, solely in the interests of any Note Holder.

Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall provide notice of its identity and contact information (including any change thereof) to the Trustee, Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement; provided, that each Initial Note Holder shall be deemed to have provided such notice on the date hereof. The Trustee, Certificate Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such identity and contact information received by it and shall not be liable in respect of any deliveries hereunder sent in reliance thereon.

Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right at any time to appoint a representative in connection with the exercise of its rights and obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loan (with respect to such Note Holder, the “Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative”). All of the provisions relating to the Controlling Note Holder and the Controlling Note Holder Representative set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 6(a) (except those contained in the last sentence thereof) and the second paragraph of this Section 6(a) shall apply to each Non-Controlling Note Holder and its Non-Controlling Note Holder Representative mutatis mutandis.

For so long as the Lead Securitization Note(s) are included in the Lead Securitization, the “Directing Certificateholder” under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (or any other party designated under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to exercise the rights of the Controlling Note Holder hereunder) shall be the Controlling Note Holder Representative.

(b)                   The Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to exercise the rights and powers granted to the Controlling Note hereunder. In addition, the Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to advise (1) the Special Servicer with respect to all matters related to the Mortgage Loan if it is a Specially Serviced Loan and (2) the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer with respect to all Major Decisions, and, except as set forth below the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall not be permitted to implement or consent to any Major Decision as to which the Controlling Note Holder has objected in writing within ten (10) Business Days (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after receipt of the written recommendation and analysis and such additional information requested by the Controlling Note Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Controlling Note Holder in order to make a judgment with respect to such Major Decision. The Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall seek the consent

-32-

of the Controlling Note Holder with respect to any Major Decision to the same extent that it is responsible under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement for seeking the consent of the Directing Certificateholder with respect to any Major Decision with respect to any other mortgage loan serviced thereunder (assuming that a “Control Termination Event” or similar event under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement has not occurred and is not continuing). The Controlling Note Holder may also direct the Special Servicer to take, or to refrain from taking, such other actions with respect to the Mortgage Loan as the Controlling Note Holder may deem advisable.

If the Controlling Note Holder fails to notify the applicable Servicer of its approval or disapproval of any proposed Major Decision within ten (10) Business Days (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default) after delivery to the Controlling Note Holder by the applicable Servicer of written notice of a proposed Major Decision (which notice shall contain a legend, in conspicuous boldface type, substantially similar to the following: “THIS IS A REQUEST FOR ACTION APPROVAL. IF THE CONTROLLING NOTE HOLDER FAILS TO APPROVE OR DISAPPROVE THE ENCLOSED ACTION WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS, SUCH ACTION MAY BE DEEMED APPROVED”) together with any information requested by the Controlling Note Holder as may be necessary in the reasonable judgment of the Controlling Note Holder in order to make a judgment, then upon the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period (or thirty (30) days with respect to an Acceptable Insurance Default), such Major Decision shall be deemed to have been approved by the Controlling Note Holder.

In the event that the Special Servicer or Master Servicer (in the event the Master Servicer is otherwise authorized by the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement to take such action), as applicable, determines that immediate action, with respect to the foregoing matters, or any other matter requiring consent of the Controlling Note Holder is necessary to protect the interests of the Note Holders (as a collective whole) and the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as the case may be, has made a reasonable effort to contact the Controlling Note Holder, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, may take any such action without waiting for the Controlling Note Holder’s response.

No objection, direction, consent or advice contemplated by the preceding paragraphs may require or cause the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, to violate any provision of the Mortgage Loan Documents, applicable law, the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, this Agreement, the REMIC Provisions or the Master Servicer or Special Servicer’s obligation to act in accordance with the Servicing Standard.

Section 7.                Appointment of Special Servicer. The Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) shall have the right (subject to the terms, conditions and limitations in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) at any time and from time to time, with or without cause, to replace the Special Servicer then acting with respect to the Mortgage Loan and appoint a replacement Special Servicer with the Required Special Servicer Rating. Any designation by the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) of a Person to serve as Special Servicer shall be made by delivering to each other Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and each other party to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement a written notice stating such designation and satisfying the other conditions to such replacement as set forth in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement and this Agreement and

-33-

delivering a Rating Agency Communication to each Rating Agency (or obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency, but only if required by the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement). The Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for any expenses incurred in connection with any such replacement without cause. The Controlling Note Holder shall notify the other parties hereto of its termination of the then currently serving Special Servicer and its appointment of a replacement Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 7. If the Controlling Note Holder has not appointed a Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan as of the consummation of the securitization under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, then the initial Special Servicer designated in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement shall serve as the initial Special Servicer but this shall not limit the right of the Controlling Note Holder (or its Controlling Note Holder Representative) to designate a replacement Special Servicer for the Mortgage Loan as aforesaid. If a Servicer Termination Event on the part of the Special Servicer has occurred that affects any Non-Controlling Note Holder, such Non-Controlling Note Holder shall have the right to direct the Trustee (or at any time that the Mortgage Loan is no longer included in a Securitization Trust, the Controlling Note Holder) to terminate the Special Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement solely with respect to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Each Note Holder acknowledges and agrees that any successor special servicer appointed to replace the Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan that was terminated for cause at a Non-Controlling Note Holder’s direction cannot at any time be the person (or an Affiliate thereof) that was so terminated without the prior written consent of such Non-Controlling Note Holder. Each Non-Controlling Note Holder shall be solely responsible for reimbursing the Trustee’s or the Controlling Note Holder’s, as applicable, costs and expenses, if not paid within a reasonable time by the terminated special servicer and, in the case of the Trustee, that would otherwise be reimbursed to the Trustee from amounts on deposit in the Lead Securitization’s “collection account”.

Section 8.                Payment Procedure.

(a)               The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf), in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3 and subject to the terms of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall deposit or cause to be deposited all payments allocable to the Notes to the Collection Account and/or related Companion Distribution Account (each as defined in the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement) pursuant to and in accordance with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall deposit such payments to the applicable account within one Business Day of receipt of properly identified and available funds by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) from or on behalf of the Mortgage Loan Borrower (provided, that to the extent that any payment is received after 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on any given Business Day, the Master Servicer is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to deposit such payments into the applicable account within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such properly identified and available funds but, in any event, the Master Servicer is required to deposit such payments into the applicable account within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such properly identified and available funds).

(b)               If the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) determines, or a court of competent jurisdiction orders, at any time that any amount

-34-

received or collected in respect of any Note must, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance, preference or similar law, be returned to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or paid to any Note Holder or any Servicer or paid to any other Person, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder and each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the related Non-Lead Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall promptly on demand by the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) repay to the Lead Securitization Note Holder any portion thereof that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall have theretofore distributed to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, together with interest thereon at such rate, if any, as the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) shall have been required to pay to the Mortgage Loan Borrower, Master Servicer, Special Servicer or such other Person with respect thereto.

(c)               If, for any reason, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) makes any payment to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder before the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) has received the corresponding payment (it being understood that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is under no obligation to do so), and the Lead Securitization Note Holder does not receive the corresponding payment within five (5) Business Days of its payment to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall, at the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf) request, promptly return that payment to the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Master Servicer acting on its behalf).

(d)               Each Note Holder agrees that if at any time it shall receive from any sources whatsoever any payment on account of the Mortgage Loan in excess of its distributable share thereof, it shall promptly remit such excess to the applicable Note Holder, subject to this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall have the right to offset any amounts due hereunder from a Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan against any future payments due to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder under the Mortgage Loan. Such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s obligations under this Section 8 constitute absolute, unconditional and continuing obligations.

Section 9.                Limitation on Liability of the Note Holders. No Note Holder shall have any liability to any other Note Holder with respect to its Note except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Note Holder; provided, that, notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, each Servicer will nevertheless be subject to the obligations and standards (including the Servicing Standard) set forth in the related Securitization Servicing Agreement.

The Note Holders acknowledge that, subject to the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Note Holder may have under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of any Non-Lead Securitization Note

-35-

Holder and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder (including any Servicer and the Trustee on its behalf) shall have no liability whatsoever to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization Note Holder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Note Holder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, that each Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement.

Section 10.            Bankruptcy. Subject to Sections 2(a) and 5(c), each Note Holder hereby covenants and agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder (or the Servicer on its behalf) has the right to institute, file, commence, acquiesce, petition under Bankruptcy Code Section 303 or otherwise or join any Person in any such petition or otherwise invoke or cause any other Person to invoke an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower or seek to appoint a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official with respect to the Mortgage Loan Borrower or all or any part of its property or assets or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of the Mortgage Loan Borrower. Each Note Holder further agrees that only the Lead Securitization Note Holder, and not any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder, can make any election, give any consent, commence any action or file any motion, claim, obligation, notice or application or take any other action in any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding. The Note Holders hereby appoint the Lead Securitization Note Holder as their agent, and grant to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest, and their proxy, for the purpose of exercising any and all rights and taking any and all actions available to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with any case by or against the Mortgage Loan Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or in any other Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, the right to file and/or prosecute any claim, vote to accept or reject a plan, to make any election under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Mortgage Loan, and to file a motion to modify, lift or terminate the automatic stay with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Note Holders hereby agree that, upon the request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder, each Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder all and every such further deeds, conveyances and instruments as the Lead Securitization Note Holder may reasonably request for the better assuring and evidencing of the foregoing appointment and grant. All actions taken by any Servicer in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding are subject to and must be in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the terms of this Agreement.

Section 11.            Representations of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement is within its corporate powers, has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and does not contravene such Note Holder’s charter or any law or contractual restriction binding upon such Note Holder, and that this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Note Holder enforceable against such Note Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and except that the enforcement of rights with respect to indemnification and contribution obligations may be limited by applicable law. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing, in good standing and in possession of all licenses and authorizations necessary to carry

-36-

on its business. Each Note Holder represents and warrants that (a) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Note Holder, (b) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, all consents, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings of or with any court or governmental agency or body, if any, required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Note Holder have been obtained or made and (c) to such Note Holder’s actual knowledge, there is no pending action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation against such Note Holder, an adverse outcome of which would materially and adversely affect its performance under this Agreement.

Section 12.            No Creation of a Partnership or Exclusive Purchase Right. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the relationship created hereby between the Note Holders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates and if any Note Holder chooses to offer to any other Note Holder the opportunity to purchase a participation interest in any future mortgage loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates, such offer shall be at such purchase price and interest rate as such Note Holder chooses, in its sole and absolute discretion. No Note Holder shall have any obligation whatsoever to purchase from any other Note Holder a participation interest in any future loans originated by such Note Holder or its Affiliates.

Section 13.            Other Business Activities of the Note Holders. Each Note Holder acknowledges that each other Note Holder or its Affiliates may make loans or otherwise extend credit to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Borrower Party, and receive payments on such other loans or extensions of credit to any such party and otherwise act with respect thereto freely and without accountability in the same manner as if this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were not in effect.

Section 14.            Sale of the Notes.

(a)               Except as otherwise provided in Section 14(c) below, each Note Holder agrees that it will not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, syndicate, hypothecate, contribute, encumber or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its respective Note (or a participation interest in such Note) (a “Transfer”) except to a Qualified Institutional Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Promptly after any such Transfer, any non-transferring Note Holders shall be provided with (x) a representation from each transferee or the transferring Note Holder certifying that such transferee is a Qualified Institutional Lender (except in the case of a Transfer in accordance with the immediately following sentence or a Transfer by a Note Holder to an entity that constitutes a Qualified Institutional Lender pursuant to clause (b)(iii) of the definition thereof) and (y) a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in Section 15 (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement). If a Note Holder intends to Transfer its respective Note, or any portion thereof, to an entity that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, it must first (a) obtain the consent of each non-transferring Note Holder and (b) if any such non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, provide each of the applicable engaged Rating Agencies for such Securitization Trust with a Rating Agency Communication (or, if the transferring Note Holder is the Lead Securitization Note Holder, obtain a Rating

-37-

Agency Confirmation from each of the applicable Rating Agencies for such Securitization Trust). Notwithstanding the foregoing, without each non-transferring Note Holder’s prior consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld), and, if any non-transferring Note Holder’s Note is held in a Securitization Trust, until a Rating Agency Confirmation is obtained from each engaged Rating Agency for such Securitization Trust, no Note Holder shall Transfer all or any portion of its Note (or a participation interest in such Note) to a Borrower Party and any such Transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. The transferring Note Holder agrees that it shall pay the expenses of any non-transferring Note Holder (including all expenses of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and any Controlling Note Holder or Controlling Note Holder Representative) and all expenses relating to any Rating Agency Communication or Rating Agency Confirmation in connection with any such Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Note Holder shall have the right, without the need to obtain the consent of any other Note Holder or of any other Person or having to provide any Rating Agency Communication or having to obtain any Rating Agency Confirmation, to Transfer 49% or less (in the aggregate) of its beneficial interest in a Note, other than to a Borrower Party. None of the provisions of this Section 14(a) shall apply in the case of (1) a sale of the Lead Securitization Note(s) together with all of the Non-Lead Securitization Notes, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement or (2) a transfer by the Special Servicer, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, of the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, upon the Mortgage Loan becoming a Defaulted Loan, to a single member limited liability or limited partnership, 100% of the equity interest in which is owned directly or indirectly, through one or more single member limited liability companies or limited partnerships, by the Lead Securitization Trust.

(b)               In the case of any Transfer of a participation interest in any of the Notes, (i) the respective Note Holders’ obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Note Holders shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Lead Securitization Note Holder and any Persons acting on its behalf shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Note Holder in connection with such Note Holder’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, and all amounts payable hereunder shall be determined as if such Note Holder had not sold such participation interest.

(c)               Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Note Holder may pledge (a “Pledge”) its Note to any entity (other than a Borrower Party or any Affiliate thereof) which has extended a credit or repurchase facility to such Note Holder and that is either a Qualified Institutional Lender or a financial institution whose long-term unsecured debt is rated at least “A” (or the equivalent) or better by each applicable Rating Agency (or, if not rated by an applicable Rating Agency, an equivalent (or higher) rating from any two of Fitch, Moody’s and S&P) or to a Person with respect to which a Rating Agency Confirmation has been obtained (any of the foregoing, a “Note Pledgee”), on terms and conditions set forth in this Section 14(c), it being further agreed that a financing provided by a Note Pledgee to a Note Holder or any person which Controls such Note that is secured by its Note and is structured as a repurchase arrangement, shall qualify as a “Pledge” hereunder, provided that a Note Pledgee which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender may not take title to the pledged Note without a Rating Agency Confirmation. Upon written notice by the applicable Note Holder to each other Note Holder and any Servicer that a Pledge has been effected (including the name and address of the applicable

-38-

Note Pledgee), each other Note Holder agrees to acknowledge receipt of such notice and thereafter agrees: (i) to give Note Pledgee written notice of any default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations under this Agreement of which default such Note Holder has actual knowledge; (ii) to allow such Note Pledgee a period of ten (10) days to cure a default by the pledging Note Holder in respect of its obligations to each other Note Holder hereunder, but such Note Pledgee shall not be obligated to cure any such default; (iii) that no amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Agreement shall be effective against such Note Pledgee without the written consent of such Note Pledgee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) that such other Note Holder shall give to such Note Pledgee copies of any notice of default under this Agreement simultaneously with the giving of same to the pledging Note Holder and accept any cure thereof by such Note Pledgee which such pledging Note Holder has the right (but not the obligation) to effect hereunder, as if such cure were made by such pledging Note Holder; (v) that such other Note Holder shall deliver to Note Pledgee such estoppel certificate(s) as Note Pledgee shall reasonably request, provided that any such certificate(s) shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to such other Note Holder; and (vi) that, upon written notice (a “Redirection Notice”) to each other Note Holder and any Servicer by such Note Pledgee that the pledging Note Holder is in default, beyond any applicable cure periods, under the pledging Note Holder’s obligations to such Note Pledgee pursuant to the applicable credit agreement between the pledging Note Holder and such Note Pledgee (which notice need not be joined in or confirmed by the pledging Note Holder), and until such Redirection Notice is withdrawn or rescinded by such Note Pledgee, Note Pledgee shall be entitled to receive any payments that any Note Holder or Servicer would otherwise be obligated to pay to the pledging Note Holder from time to time pursuant to this Agreement or the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement. Any pledging Note Holder hereby unconditionally and absolutely releases each other Note Holder and any Servicer from any liability to the pledging Note Holder on account of such other Note Holder’s or Servicer’s compliance with any Redirection Notice believed by any Servicer or such other Note Holder to have been delivered by a Note Pledgee. A Note Pledgee shall be permitted to exercise fully its rights and remedies against the pledging Note Holder to such Note Pledgee (and accept an assignment in lieu of foreclosure as to such collateral), in accordance with applicable law and this Agreement. In such event, the Note Holders and any Servicer shall recognize such Note Pledgee (and any transferee other than the Mortgage Loan Borrower or any Affiliate thereof which is also a Qualified Institutional Lender at any foreclosure or similar sale held by such Note Pledgee or any transfer in lieu of foreclosure), and its successor and assigns, as the successor to the pledging Note Holder’s rights, remedies and obligations under this Agreement, and any such Note Pledgee or Qualified Institutional Lender shall assume in writing the obligations of the pledging Note Holder hereunder accruing from and after such Transfer (i.e., realization upon the collateral by such Note Pledgee) and agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The rights of a Note Pledgee under this Section 14(c) shall remain effective as to any Note Holder (and any Servicer) unless and until such Note Pledgee shall have notified any such Note Holder (and any Servicer, as applicable) in writing that its interest in the pledged Note has terminated.

(d)               Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if a conduit (“Conduit”) which is not a Qualified Institutional Lender provides financing to a Note Holder then such Note Holder shall have the right to grant a security interest in its Note to such Conduit notwithstanding that such Conduit is not a Qualified Institutional Lender, if the following conditions are satisfied:

-39-

(i)                         The loan (the “Conduit Inventory Loan”) made by the Conduit to such Note Holder to finance the acquisition and holding of its Note requires a third party (the “Conduit Credit Enhancer”) to provide credit enhancement;

(ii)                      The Conduit Credit Enhancer is a Qualified Institutional Lender;

(iii)                   Such Note Holder pledges (or sells, transfers or assigns as part of a repurchase facility) its interest in its Note to the Conduit as collateral for the Conduit Inventory Loan;

(iv)                  The Conduit Credit Enhancer and the Conduit agree that, if such Note Holder defaults under the Conduit Inventory Loan, or if the Conduit is unable to refinance its outstanding commercial paper even if there is no default by such Note Holder, the Conduit Credit Enhancer will purchase the Conduit Inventory Loan from the Conduit, and the Conduit will assign the pledge of such Note Holder’s Note to the Conduit Credit Enhancer; and

(v)                      Unless the Conduit is in fact then a Qualified Institutional Lender, the Conduit will not without obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency have any greater right to acquire the interests in the Note pledged by such Note Holder, by foreclosure or otherwise, than would any other purchaser that is not a Qualified Institutional Lender at a foreclosure sale conducted by a Note Pledgee.

Section 15.            Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder. The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 15, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of each other Note Holder. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such person as its agent under this Section 15 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register.

In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding any Note Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 14, from and after the date of such assignment. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 14 and this Section 15. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer

-40-

shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and each other Note Holder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 16.            Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND/OR THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW). EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 17.            Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a)               SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION AND ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN RESPECT THEREOF, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE GENERAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF;

(b)               CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(c)               AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH A PARTY HEREIN SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED; AND

(d)               AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Section 18.            Modifications. This Agreement shall not be modified, cancelled or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by each Note Holder. Additionally, for as long as any Note is contained in a Securitization Trust, the Note Holders shall not amend or modify

-41-

this Agreement without first obtaining a Rating Agency Confirmation from each Rating Agency then rating any securities of any Securitization; provided that no such Rating Agency Confirmation shall be required in connection with a modification (i) to cure any ambiguity, to correct any scrivener’s error, to correct or supplement any provisions herein that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein or with the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, or (ii) with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, to make provisions of this Agreement consistent with other provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with the creation of New Notes pursuant to Section 32).

Section 19.            Successors and Assigns; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as provided herein, including without limitation, with respect to the Trustee, Certificate Administrator, Master Servicer and Special Servicer and any Non-Lead Master Servicer, Non-Lead Special Servicer or Non-Lead Trustee, none of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any Person not a party hereto. Subject to Section 14 and Section 15, each Note Holder may assign or delegate its rights or obligations under this Agreement. Upon any such assignment, the assignee shall be entitled to all rights and benefits of the applicable Note Holder hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the representations in Section 11 shall not be binding upon any Securitization Trust.

Section 20.            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and the words “executed,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import as used above and elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other certificate, agreement or document related to this transaction shall include, in addition to manually executed signatures, images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, any electronic sound, symbol, or process, attached to or logically associated with a contract or other record and executed or adopted by a person with the intent to sign the record). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

Section 21.            Captions. The titles and headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to summarize or otherwise describe the subject matter of the paragraphs and shall not be given any consideration in the construction of this Agreement.

Section 22.            Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable laws, such provision

-42-

shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 23.            Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations between the parties.

Section 24.            Withholding Taxes. (a) If the Lead Securitization Note Holder or the Mortgage Loan Borrower shall be required by law to deduct and withhold Taxes from interest, fees or other amounts payable to any Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with respect to the Mortgage Loan as a result of such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder constituting a Non-Exempt Person, such Lead Securitization Note Holder, in its capacity as servicer, shall be entitled to do so with respect to such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder’s interest in such payment (all withheld amounts being deemed paid to such Note Holder), provided that the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall furnish such Non-Lead Securitization Note Holder with a statement setting forth the amount of Taxes withheld, the applicable rate and other information which may reasonably be requested for purposes of assisting such Note Holder to seek any allowable credits or deductions for the Taxes so withheld in each jurisdiction in which such Note Holder is subject to tax.

(b)               Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall and hereby agrees to indemnify the Lead Securitization Note Holder against and hold the Lead Securitization Note Holder harmless from and against any Taxes, interest, penalties and attorneys’ fees and disbursements arising or resulting from any failure of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payment made to such Note Holder in reliance upon any representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument made or provided by such Note Holder to the Lead Securitization Note Holder in connection with the obligation of the Lead Securitization Note Holder to withhold Taxes from payments made to such Note Holder, it being expressly understood and agreed that (i) the Lead Securitization Note Holder shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to accept any such representation, certificate, statement, document or instrument as being true and correct in all respects and to fully rely thereon without any obligation or responsibility to investigate or to make any inquiries with respect to the accuracy, veracity, correctness or validity of the same and (ii) such Note Holder, upon request of the Lead Securitization Note Holder and at its sole cost and expense, shall defend any claim or action relating to the foregoing indemnification using counsel selected by the Lead Securitization Note Holder.

(c)               Each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) represents that it is not a Non-Exempt Person and that neither the Lead Securitization Note Holder nor the Mortgage Loan Borrower is obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time as necessary during the term of this Agreement, each Note Holder (to the extent it is not the same entity as the Lead Securitization Note Holder) shall deliver to the Lead Securitization Note Holder or Servicer, as applicable, evidence satisfactory to the Lead Securitization Note Holder substantiating that such Note Holder is not a Non-Exempt Person and that the Lead Securitization Note Holder is not obligated under applicable law to withhold Taxes on sums paid to it with respect to the Mortgage Loan or otherwise under this Agreement. Without limiting the effect of

-43-

the foregoing, (i) if a Note Holder is created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, it shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder an Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and (ii) if a Note Holder is not created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and if the payment of interest or other amounts by the Mortgage Loan Borrower is treated for United States income tax purposes as derived in whole or part from sources within the United States, such Note Holder shall satisfy the requirements of the preceding sentence by furnishing to the Lead Securitization Note Holder Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (with appropriate attachments), Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, or successor forms, as may be required from time to time, duly executed by such Note Holder, as evidence of such Note Holder’s exemption from the withholding of United States tax with respect thereto. The Lead Securitization Note Holder shall not be obligated to make any payment hereunder with respect to any Non-Lead Securitization Note or otherwise until the holder of such Note shall have furnished to the Lead Securitization Note Holder requested forms, certificates, statements or documents.

Section 25.            Custody of Mortgage Loan Documents. Prior to the Lead Securitization Date, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than the Notes, which will be held by the respective Note Holders or their designated custodians) will be held by the Initial Agent (or a duly appointed interim servicer or custodian on its behalf) on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes. If the Lead Securitization is not also the Note A-1-1 Securitization, then on and after the Lead Securitization Date, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than any Notes not included in such Lead Securitization, which will be held by the respective Note Holders or their designated custodians) shall be held in the name of the trustee (and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor) under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes. On and after the Note A-1-1 Securitization Date, the originals of all of the Mortgage Loan Documents (other than any Notes not included in the Note A-1-1 Securitization) shall be transferred to and held in the name of the trustee (and held by a duly appointed custodian therefor) under the Note A-1-1 PSA, on behalf of the registered holders of the Notes.

Section 26.            Cooperation in Securitization.

(a)               Each Note Holder acknowledges that any Note Holder may elect, in its sole discretion, to include its Note in a Securitization. In connection with a Securitization and subject to the terms of the preceding sentence, at the request of the related Securitizing Note Holder, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall use reasonable efforts, at such Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, to satisfy, and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to satisfy, the market standards to which such Securitizing Note Holder customarily adheres or that may be reasonably required in the marketplace or by the Rating Agencies in connection with such Securitization, including, entering into (or consenting to, as applicable) any modifications to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Documents and to cooperate with such Securitizing Note Holder in attempting to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute such modifications to the Mortgage Loan Documents, in any such case, as may be reasonably requested by the Rating Agencies to effect such Securitization; provided, that no Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall be required to modify or amend this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan Documents (or consent to such modification, as

-44-

applicable) in connection therewith, if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest allocable to, or the amount of any payments due to or priority of such payments to, such Non-Securitizing Note Holder or (ii) materially increase such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s obligations or materially decrease such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s rights, remedies or protections. In connection with any Securitization, each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall provide for inclusion in any disclosure document relating to such Securitization such information concerning such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note as the related Securitizing Note Holder reasonably determines to be necessary or appropriate, and such Non-Securitizing Note Holder shall, at the Securitizing Note Holder’s expense, cooperate with the reasonable requests of each Rating Agency and such Securitizing Note Holder in connection with such Securitization (including, without limitation, reasonably cooperating with the Securitizing Note Holder (without any obligation to make additional representations and warranties) to enable the Securitizing Note Holder to make all necessary certifications and deliver all necessary opinions (including customary securities law opinions) in connection with the Mortgage Loan and such Securitization), as well as in connection with all other matters and the preparation of any offering documents thereof and to review and respond reasonably promptly with respect to any information relating to such Non-Securitizing Note Holder and its Note in any Securitization document. Each Note Holder acknowledges that in connection with any Securitization, the information provided by it in its capacity as a Non-Securitizing Note Holder to the related Securitizing Note Holder may be incorporated into the offering documents for such Securitization. Each Securitizing Note Holder and each Rating Agency shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied by, or on behalf of, each Non-Securitizing Note Holder. The Securitizing Note Holder shall reasonably cooperate with each Non-Securitizing Note Holder by providing all information reasonably requested that is in the Securitizing Note Holder’s possession in connection with such Non-Securitizing Note Holder’s preparation of disclosure materials in connection with a Securitization.

Upon request, each Securitizing Note Holder shall deliver to each related Non-Securitizing Note Holder drafts of the preliminary and final offering memoranda, prospectus supplement, free writing prospectus and any other disclosure documents and the pooling and servicing agreement for the Securitization of such Securitizing Note Holder’s Note and provide reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such documents.

Section 27.            Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be given by (i)  e-mail (during business hours) if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), (ii) reputable overnight delivery service (charges prepaid) or (iii) certified United States mail, postage prepaid return receipt requested, and addressed to the respective parties at their addresses set forth on Exhibit B hereto, or at such other address as any party shall hereafter inform the other party by written notice given as aforesaid. All written notices so given shall be deemed effective upon receipt.

Section 28.            Broker. Each Note Holder represents to each other that it has not dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent or other person that may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

-45-

Section 29.            Certain Matters Affecting the Agent.

(a)               The Agent may request and/or rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any documents delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 14 and Section 15;

(b)               The Agent may consult with counsel and any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such opinion of counsel;

(c)               The Agent shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any Note Holder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless it has received indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it;

(d)               The Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or “control” persons within the meaning of the Act, shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by the Agent to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(e)               The Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any documents delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 15;

(f)                The Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys but shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder; and

(g)               The Agent represents and warrants that it is a Qualified Institutional Lender.

Section 30.            Reserved.

Section 31.          Resignation or Termination of Agent. The Agent may resign at any time on ten (10) days’ prior notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Note Holders (it being agreed that a Servicer, the Trustee or a Certificate Administrator in a Securitization is satisfactory to the Note Holders), has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. Barclays, as Initial Agent, may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Administrator, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Note Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Note Holders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of Barclays without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of the Master Servicer, as Master Servicer under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Master Servicer as Agent under this Agreement, and any successor master servicer shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place thereof without any further notice or other action.

-46-

Section 32.            Resizing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for so long as any Initial Note Holder or an affiliate thereof (an “Original Entity”) is the owner of a Note that is not included in a Securitization (each, an “Owned Note”), such Original Entity shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, to cause the Mortgage Loan Borrower to execute amended and restated notes or additional notes (in each case, as applicable, “New Notes”) reallocating the principal of an Owned Note to such New Notes; or severing an Owned Note into one or more further “component” notes in the aggregate principal amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of such Owned Note provided that (i) the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding New Notes following such amendments is no greater than the aggregate principal of such Owned Note prior to such amendments, (ii) all Notes continue to have the same weighted average interest rate as the Notes prior to such amendments, (iii) all Notes pay on a Pro Rata and Pari Passu Basis and such reallocated or component notes shall be automatically subject to the terms of this Agreement, and (iv) the Original Entity holding the New Notes shall notify each other Note Holder, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee in writing of such modified allocations and principal amounts. If the Lead Securitization Note Holder so requests, the Original Entity holding the New Notes (and any subsequent holder of such Notes) shall execute a confirmation of the continuing applicability of this Agreement to the New Notes, as so modified. Except for the foregoing reallocation and for modifications pursuant to the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as discussed in Section 5), no Note may be modified or amended without the consent of its holder and the consent of the holder of each other Note. In connection with the foregoing (provided the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above are satisfied, with respect to clauses (i) through (iv), as certified by the Original Entity, on which certification the Master Servicer can rely), the Master Servicer is hereby authorized and directed to execute amendments to the Mortgage Loan Documents and this Agreement on behalf of any or all of the Note Holders, as applicable, solely for the purpose of reflecting such reallocation of principal and that each New Note shall be a “Note” hereunder and for the purpose of adding and modifying any definitions related thereto. If more than one New Note is created hereunder, for purposes of exercising the rights of a Controlling Note Holder or Non-Controlling Note Holder hereunder, the “Controlling Note Holder” or “Non-Controlling Note Holder”, as applicable, shall be as provided in the definitions of such terms in this Agreement; provided that the Controlling Note Holder shall be entitled to designate any New Note created from the existing Controlling Note to be a Non-Controlling Note hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree and acknowledge that a modification or amendment to this Agreement shall not be required in connection with the exercise of any rights under this Section 32.

2.        Based on my knowledge, the prospectus does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading;

3.        Based on my knowledge, the prospectus and other information included in the registration statement of which it is a part fairly present, in all material respects, the characteristics of the securitized assets, the structure of the securitization and the risks of ownership of the securities, including the risks relating to the securitized assets that would affect the cash flows available to service payments or distributions on the securities in accordance with their terms; and

This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of May 1, 2024, is between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as purchaser (the “Purchaser”), and Bank of Montreal, a Canadian chartered bank, as seller (the “Seller”).

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Purchaser, as depositor (in such capacity, the “Depositor”), Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and as asset representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”), Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”) and as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), pursuant to which the Purchaser will transfer the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein), together with certain other commercial, multifamily and/or manufactured housing community mortgage loans (collectively, the “Other Loans”), to a trust fund (the “Trust Fund”). In exchange for the Mortgage Loans and the Other Loans, the Trust Fund will issue, to or at the direction of the Depositor, certificates to be known as BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4 (collectively, the “Certificates”), and any Uncertificated Interests (if applicable).

For purposes of this Agreement, “Mortgage Loans” refers to the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (including as reflected in any footnotes to such exhibit) and “Mortgaged Properties” refers to the properties securing such Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller is selling one or more Co-sponsored Mortgage Loans, each such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is identified on Annex A to this Agreement. A “Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan” is (i) part of an entire Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or part of a Whole Loan, (ii) comprised of 2 or more separate Notes being sold to the Purchaser by two or more separate sellers (also referred to as Applicable Co-sponsors) as identified on Annex A to this Agreement, and (iii) if such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is part of a Whole Loan, comprised of the entire portion of such Whole Loan that is being contributed to the Trust (i.e. there may be other Notes evidencing Companion Loans that are not contributed to the Trust). “Applicable Co-sponsor” means, as to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, each seller of the subject Notes to the Purchaser, as identified on Annex A to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, although the term “Mortgage Loan” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Offering Documents means the entire such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, for the purposes of determining any rights or obligations of the Seller and the related Applicable Co-sponsor(s) with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Applicable Co-sponsor’s related mortgage loan purchase agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the term “Mortgage Loan” refers to the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) contributed to the Trust by such Applicable Co-sponsor and such promissory note(s) shall be treated like a separate Mortgage Loan.

The Purchaser and the Seller wish to prescribe the manner of sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser and in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, agree as follows:

SECTION 1        Sale and Conveyance of Mortgages; Possession of Mortgage File. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, representation or warranty (except as otherwise specifically set forth herein), subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan (other than any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”), including all interest and principal received or receivable on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding payments of principal and interest and other amounts due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-Off Date and excluding any Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loans).

In addition, on the Closing Date, solely in the event the initial Distribution Date occurs in February (except during a leap year) or March, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer (for deposit into the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account) (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Trust Fund the aggregate Initial Interest Deposit Amount with respect to those Mortgage Loans that accrue interest on an Actual/360 Basis, which Initial Interest Deposit Amount for each such Mortgage Loan shall represent an amount equal to (i) if the initial Distribution Date is in February, one day of interest (except during a leap year), and (ii) if the initial Distribution Date is in March, two days of interest (or one day of interest during a leap year), in each case, at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the related Cut-Off Date Balance of each such Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, no Initial Interest Deposit Amount will be due and owing if (i) the initial Distribution Date does not occur in February or March, or (ii) if the initial Distribution Date occurs in February during a leap year.

In addition, on the Closing Date, if one or more Mortgage Loans is identified opposite the Seller’s name on Annex B to this Agreement (which Mortgage Loans do not have a Due Date in the month of the first Distribution Date), the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer or the Certificate Administrator (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), for deposit into the account set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on behalf of the Seller and for the benefit of the Trust Fund, the Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount with respect to each such Mortgage Loan, which Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount shall represent an amount equal to one-month’s interest accrued with respect to each such Mortgage Loan at the related Net Mortgage Rate for the month preceding the month of the first Distribution Date.

Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Note, the Seller’s interest in the related Mortgage represented by the Note and the other contents of the related Mortgage File (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) will be vested in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee, and the ownership of records and documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than those to be held by the holder of any related Companion Loan

-2-

that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) prepared by or which come into the possession of the Seller shall (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) immediately vest in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee. In connection with the transfer pursuant to this Section 1 of any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, the Seller does hereby assign to the Purchaser all of its rights, title and interest (solely in its capacity as the holder of the subject Mortgage Loan) in, to and under the related Co-Lender Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the Seller does not assign any right, title or interest that it or any other party may have thereunder in its capacity as the holder of any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). The Seller’s assignment of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement.

The Purchaser will sell: (i) the Public Certificates to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Underwriters; (ii) the Private Certificates to the Initial Purchasers (the Initial Purchasers, collectively with the Underwriters, are referred to herein as the “Dealers”) specified in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Initial Purchasers; and (iii) if applicable, any classes of Loan-Specific Certificates pursuant to a related purchase agreement between the Purchaser and any applicable Loan-Specific Initial Purchasers identified therein.

The sale and conveyance of the Mortgage Loans is being conducted on an arms-length basis and upon commercially reasonable terms. As the consideration for the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser shall: (i) pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Seller or at the Seller’s direction that sum set forth in the funding schedule executed by the Seller and the Purchaser relating to the sale of the Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby (but subject to certain post-settlement adjustments for expenses incurred by the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Depositor and for which the Seller is specifically responsible); and (ii) if the Seller is listed on Annex C to this Agreement, cause any Uncertificated Interests or Class VRR Certificates identified on Annex C hereto opposite the Seller’s name to be registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in the name of the Seller.

The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2        Books and Records; Certain Funds Received After the Cut-Off Date. From and after the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, record title to each Mortgage (other than with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Note shall be transferred to the Trustee subject to and in accordance with this Agreement. Any funds due after the Cut-Off Date in connection with a Mortgage Loan received by the Seller shall be held in trust on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders) as the owner of such Mortgage Loan and shall be transferred promptly to the Certificate Administrator. All scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date but collected after the Cut-Off Date, and all recoveries and payments of principal and interest collected on or before the Cut-Off Date (only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-Off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall belong to, and shall be promptly remitted to, the Seller.

-3-

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Seller’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the sale of such Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser. The Seller intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser as a sale for tax purposes. Following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser, the Seller shall not take any actions inconsistent with the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser and its assignees.

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Purchaser’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the purchase of such Mortgage Loan by the Purchaser from the Seller. The Purchaser intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the Seller as a purchase for tax purposes. The Purchaser shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a set of records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the transfer of ownership of each Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Seller will receive the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 3        Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Additional Costs and Expenses.         (a) The Purchaser hereby directs the Seller, and the Seller hereby agrees, such agreement effective upon the transfer of the Mortgage Loans as contemplated herein, to deliver to and deposit with (or to cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Custodian (on behalf of the Trustee), with copies (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to be delivered to the Master Servicer, on the dates set forth in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered by the Purchaser, or contemplated to be delivered by the Seller (whether at the direction of the Purchaser or otherwise), to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, with respect to the Mortgage Loans under Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and meeting all the requirements of such Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

With respect to letters of credit (exclusive of those relating to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer, and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall require the Master Servicer to hold, the original (or copy, if such original has been submitted by the Seller to the issuing bank to effect an assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer) for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, to the extent required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents)) and the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied any such delivery requirements by delivering with respect to any letter(s) of credit a copy thereof to the Custodian together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller certifying that such document has been delivered to the Master Servicer or an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that it holds the letter(s) of credit pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If a letter of credit

-4-

referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents, the Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Master Servicer within 90 days of the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(b)               Except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall deliver to and deposit with (or cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date: (i) a copy of the Mortgage File; (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan(s), (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any related asset summaries that were delivered to the Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Certificates, material notices related to tenant leases, and any related operating statements, financial statements, appraisals or similar reports) or any related Serviced Companion Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans or holders of interests therein, and (C) are in the possession or under the control of the Seller; and (iii) all unapplied Escrow Payments and reserve funds in the possession or under control of the Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans together with a statement indicating which Escrow Payments and reserve funds are allocable to each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3(b) shall not apply to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by any Mortgaged Property that is subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any such related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Seller or its designee shall, within 45 days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor for the transfer or assignment of such comfort letter or issuance of a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), with a copy of such notice or request to the Custodian (who shall include such document

-5-

in the related Mortgage File) and the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, deliver the original of such replacement comfort letter, new document or acknowledgement, as applicable, to the Custodian for inclusion in the Mortgage File.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver Mortgage Note(s) to the Custodian shall be limited to delivery to the Custodian of only the Mortgage Note(s) held by such Applicable Co-sponsor. With respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver the remaining portion of the related Mortgage File or any remaining document required to be delivered with respect thereto shall be joint and several, provided that any one of the Applicable Co-sponsors may deliver one Mortgage File (exclusive of the related Mortgage Notes) or one of any other remaining document required to be delivered with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan hereunder and under the mortgage loan purchase agreement(s) between the Purchaser and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s), and such delivery shall satisfy the corresponding delivery requirements for both the Seller and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s).

(e)               Upon written request from the Special Servicer, the Seller shall deliver a power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement to the Special Servicer, that permits the Special Servicer to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement actions by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 4        Treatment as a Security Agreement. Pursuant to Section 1 hereof, the Seller has conveyed to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the parties also intend and agree that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and in such event does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal or interest on such Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-Off Date, all other payments made in respect of such Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date) and all proceeds thereof, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser hypothecating and transferring such security interest in favor of the Trustee and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Trustee.

SECTION 5        Covenants of the Seller. The Seller covenants with the Purchaser as follows:

(a)               with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), it shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file, in

-6-

the appropriate public recording office for real property records or UCC financing statements, as appropriate, each related assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases, and each related UCC-3 financing statement referred to in the definition of Mortgage File, in each case in favor of the Trustee, as and to the extent contemplated under Section 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the recordation or filing of such assignments of Assignment of Leases, assignments of Mortgage and financing statements shall be paid by (or caused to be paid by) the Seller. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and the Seller shall record or file, or cause the recording or filing of, such substitute or corrected document or instrument, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to such third party (or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan);

(b)               as to each Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the Seller cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, it shall forward to the Custodian a copy of the original certified by the Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording. The Seller shall cause each assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above to reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the Seller or its designee, in which case the Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof;

(c)               except for actions that are the express responsibility of another party hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer, including effectuating the transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and any Serviced Companion Loan Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(c) shall not apply with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan;

(d)               the Seller shall provide the Master Servicer the initial data with respect to each Mortgage Loan for the CREFC^® Financial File and the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File that are required to be prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

-7-

(e)               if (during the period of time that the Underwriters are required, under applicable law, to deliver a prospectus related to the Public Certificates in connection with sales of the Public Certificates by an Underwriter or a dealer) the Seller has obtained actual knowledge of undisclosed or corrected information related to an event that occurred prior to the Closing Date, which event causes there to be an untrue statement of a material fact with respect to the Seller Information (as such term is defined in the Indemnification Agreement) in the Prospectus, the Offering Circular or any Loan-Specific Offering Circular (the Prospectus, the Offering Circular and any Loan-Specific Offering Circular are collectively referred to herein as the “Offering Documents”), or causes there to be an omission to state therein a material fact with respect to the Seller Information required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein with respect to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Seller shall promptly notify the Dealers and the Depositor. If as a result of any such event the Dealers’ legal counsel determines that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Documents in order to correct the untrue statement, or to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or to make the Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to the Seller Information) at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Dealers, such amendments or supplements to the Offering Documents as may be necessary so that the Seller Information in the Offering Documents, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law. (All capitalized terms used in this Section 5(e) and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date for the Certificates, between, among others, the Dealers, the Seller and the Depositor (the “Indemnification Agreement” and, together with this Agreement, the “Operative Documents”).) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall have no affirmative obligation to monitor the performance of the Mortgage Loans or any changes in condition or circumstance of any Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor, guarantor or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date in connection with its obligations under this Section 5(e);

(f)                for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Seller shall: (1) provide the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and any Form 8-K Disclosure Information for which the Seller is responsible as indicated on Exhibit U, Exhibit V and Exhibit Z to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that, in connection with providing Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and the Seller’s reporting obligations under Item 1119 of Regulation AB, upon reasonable request by the Seller, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a list of all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any other Servicing Function Participant; and (2) reasonably cooperate with each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, upon the reasonable request of such party, by providing all Mortgage Loan related documents, data and information in the possession of the Seller at or prior to the Closing Date and on the date of such request and necessary for the ongoing compliance by the Depositor and the Trust with the requirements of Form 10-D with respect to Items 1111 and 1125 of Regulation AB; provided, that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the

-8-

related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(g)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered an electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence File (including, if applicable, any additional documents that the Seller believes should be included to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform an Asset Review on such Mortgage Loan; provided that such documents are clearly labeled and identified) to the Designated Site, each such Diligence File being organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor;

(h)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Depositor (with a copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) with a certification by an authorized officer of the Seller, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, that the electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan uploaded to the Designated Site contains all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor, which such certification or copies thereof may be sent via email;

(i)                 upon written request of the Asset Representations Reviewer (in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for a Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan), the Seller shall provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written request (which time period may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the Seller and the Asset Representations Reviewer), such documents requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer and in the possession of the Seller relating to each such Delinquent Loan to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete any Test for each such Delinquent Loan, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(j)                 upon the completion of an Asset Review with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan and receipt by the Seller of a written invoice from the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Seller shall pay to the Asset Representations Reviewer, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such written invoice, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to such Delinquent Loan as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to adjustment with respect to any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan(s), as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(k)               if the Preliminary Asset Review Report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the Seller shall have 90 days

-9-

from receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report. If the Seller elects to refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report, the Seller shall provide to the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test;

(l)                 the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event an Enforcing Party elects a dispute resolution method pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Seller shall abide by the selected dispute resolution method and otherwise comply with the terms and provisions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) related to the resolution method;

(m)             the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages and other liabilities, including without limitation the costs of investigation, legal defense and any amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation arising out of or based upon (i) any failure of the Seller to pay the fees described under Section 5(j) above within 90 days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) any failure by the Seller to provide all documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to Sections 5(g) and 5(i) of this Agreement and under the definition of “Diligence File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within 60 days of the Closing Date (or such later date specified herein or in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); and

(n)               with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is (or may become pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement) part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan, (x) in the event that the Closing Date occurs on or prior to the closing date of the related Outside Securitization Trust (such event, the “Outside Securitization”), the Seller shall provide (or cause to be provided) to the Depositor (and counsel thereto) and the Certificate Administrator (i) written notice in a timely manner of (but no later than three (3) Business Days prior to) the closing date of such Outside Securitization, and (ii) no later than one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization, a copy of the Outside Servicing Agreement in an EDGAR-compatible format, and (y) in the event that the Closing Date occurs after the closing date of the Outside Securitization, the Seller shall provide, or cause the Outside Depositor to provide, the Depositor (and counsel thereto) with a copy of the related Outside Servicing Agreement (together with any amendments thereto) in an EDGAR-compatible format by the later of (i) two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and (ii) one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization.

(ii)                                 Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser, this Agreement will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (B) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (C) public policy considerations underlying the securities laws, to the extent that such public policy considerations limit the enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement that purport to provide indemnification for securities laws liabilities;

(iii)                              The execution and delivery of each Operative Document by the Seller and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which the Seller is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Seller’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Seller, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Seller’s assets or property, in each case, which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents;

(iv)                             There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Seller’s knowledge, threatened against the Seller in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of the Mortgage Loans or the ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by each Operative Document;

(v)                                The Seller is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that, in the Seller’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Seller or its properties or might have consequences that, in the Seller’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

-11-

(vi)                             No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of, or compliance by the Seller with, each Operative Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other than those which have been obtained by the Seller and those filings and recordings of Loan Documents and assignments thereof that are contemplated by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be completed after the Closing Date;

(i)                                    The Purchaser is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with full corporate power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business, is duly qualified as a foreign corporation in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of its property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Purchaser to perform its obligations hereunder, and the Purchaser has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it, and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all the transactions contemplated hereby;

(ii)                                 Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller, this Agreement will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);

(iii)                              The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser and the performance of its obligations hereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which the Purchaser is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Purchaser’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Purchaser, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Purchaser’s assets or property, in each case which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Purchaser to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

-12-

(iv)                             There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against the Purchaser in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of this Agreement or any action taken in connection with the obligations of the Purchaser contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the Purchaser to perform under the terms of this Agreement;

(v)                                The Purchaser is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Purchaser or its properties or might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

(c)               The Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to the Mortgage Loans (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) set forth on Exhibit B to this Agreement as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit B to this Agreement, which representations and warranties are subject to the exceptions thereto set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement. If the Seller’s Mortgage Loans contain a related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, then such Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to such related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan set forth on Exhibit I to this Agreement (if any) as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit I to this Agreement.

(d)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, if (i) any party thereto (other than the Asset Representations Reviewer) discovers or receives notice alleging that any document required to be included in a Mortgage File by (or on behalf of) the Seller has not been properly executed, is missing, contains information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or does not appear to be regular on its face (each, a “Document Defect”), or discovers or receives notice alleging a breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller made pursuant to Section 6(c) of this Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan (a “Breach”) or (ii) the Special Servicer or the

-13-

Purchaser receives a Repurchase Request, then such party is required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller.

(e)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Enforcing Servicer is required to determine whether any such Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan materially and adversely affects, or such Document Defect is deemed in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to materially and adversely affect, the value of the Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or the interests of the Trustee or any Certificateholder in the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or causes any Mortgage Loan to fail to be a Qualified Mortgage (any such Document Defect shall constitute a “Material Document Defect” and any such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach”; and a Material Breach and/or a Material Document Defect, as the case may be, shall constitute a “Material Defect”). If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect, then the Enforcing Servicer will be required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller, demanding that the Seller cure such Material Defect. Promptly upon becoming aware of any such Material Defect (including, without limitation, through a written notice given by any party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as provided above if the Document Defect or Breach identified therein is a Material Defect), the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the Seller’s (x) discovery of, and (y) receipt of notice of and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to such Material Defect (or, in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days from any party discovering such Material Defect), cure the same in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of any losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses associated therewith (including, if applicable, the amount of any fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer payable pursuant to Section 5(j) above attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan)) or, if such Material Defect cannot be cured within such 90-day period, the Seller shall (before the end of such 90-day period) either: (i) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property (or the Trust Fund’s interest therein) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account; or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date and in no event shall any such substitution be effected with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) and pay the Master Servicer, for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith; provided, that the Seller may not repurchase any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan without repurchasing its Mortgage Loan that is part of the same Whole Loan (so long as there is a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan); and provided, further, however, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such 90-day period, then the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure (or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as described above) it being understood and agreed that, in connection with the Seller’s receiving such additional 90-day period, the Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day period and what actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the Seller anticipates that such Material Defect

-14-

will be cured within such additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the initial 90-day period and any such additional 90-day period solely due to the failure of the Seller to have received the recorded document, then the Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect so long as the Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator every 30 days thereafter that the Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date. Any such repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. The Seller shall have no obligation to monitor the Mortgage Loans regarding the existence of a Breach or a Document Defect, but if the Seller discovers a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, it will notify the Purchaser. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-Off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and shall be required, under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller promptly following receipt. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. No mortgage loan may be substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Section 6(e) if the Mortgage Loan to be replaced was itself a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that had replaced a prior Mortgage Loan, in which case, absent a cure (including by the making of a Loss of Value Payment pursuant to the following paragraph) of the relevant Material Defect, the affected Mortgage Loan will be required to be repurchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), in lieu of the Seller performing its obligations with respect to any Material Defect as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to the extent that the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer (subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder or, in the case of any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative so long as it is the applicable Directing Holder) as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, are able to agree upon a cash payment payable by the Seller to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, that would be deemed sufficient to compensate the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, for a Material Defect (a “Loss of Value Payment”), the Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such Loss of Value Payment to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable; provided that a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage, may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment; and provided, further, that the Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Loss of Value Payment relates to a Co-sponsored

-15-

Mortgage Loan, the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement). Upon its making a Loss of Value Payment, the Seller shall be deemed to have cured the subject Material Defect in all respects. Provided that such Loss of Value Payment is made, this paragraph describes the sole remedy available to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, and its assignees regarding any such Material Defect, and the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase or replace the affected Mortgage Loan or otherwise cure such Material Defect. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, provided that, prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Seller or the Enforcing Servicer, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and within the time frames set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this Section 6(e) (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan).

If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as described above (a “Defective Mortgage Loan”), (y) such Defective Mortgage Loan is part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and (z) the applicable Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Material Defect as to the other Mortgage Loan(s) that are a part of such Cross-Collateralized Group (the “Other Crossed Loans”) (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Document Defect or Breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to each such Other Crossed Loan for purposes of the above provisions, and the Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such Other Crossed Loan in accordance with the provisions above unless, in the case of such Breach or Document Defect, as applicable:

(A) the Seller (at its expense) delivers or causes to be delivered to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Seller’s repurchase or replacement of only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Defect has actually occurred without regard to the provisions of this paragraph (the “Affected Loan(s)”) and the operation of the remaining provisions of this Section 6(e) (i) will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Certificate is outstanding and (ii) will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code); and

(B)  each of the following conditions would be satisfied if the Seller were to repurchase or replace only the Affected Loans and not the Other Crossed Loans:

(1)   the debt service coverage ratio for such Other Crossed Loan(s) (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not less than the lesser of (A) 0.10x below the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus and (B) the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-

-16-

Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) for the four preceding calendar quarters preceding the repurchase or replacement;

(2)   the loan-to-value ratio for the Other Crossed Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the greatest of (A) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus plus 10%, (B) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) at the time of repurchase or replacement and (C) 75%; and

(3)   either (x) the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group will not impair the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group or (y) the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans have been modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that removes any threat of impairment of the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group as a result of the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group.

The determination of the Enforcing Servicer as to whether the conditions set forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error on the Certificateholders, other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Seller. The Enforcing Servicer will be entitled to cause to be delivered, or direct the Seller to (in which case the Seller shall) cause to be delivered, to the Enforcing Servicer an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause (B)(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the Seller if the scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the Seller and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in each case).

With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan that forms a part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and as to which the conditions described in the second preceding paragraph are satisfied, such that the Trust Fund will continue to hold the Other Crossed Loans, the Seller and the Depositor agree to forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each is permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan(s) still held by the Trust Fund. If the exercise of remedies by one such party would impair the ability of the other such party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan or the Other Crossed Loans, as the case may be, held by the other such party, then both parties shall forbear from exercising such remedies unless and until the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans can be modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment as a result of the

-17-

exercise of remedies. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing any of the Mortgage Loans that form a Cross-Collateralized Group shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Loan Documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. All other terms of the Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect, without any modification thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall be binding on all future holders of each Mortgage Loan that forms part of a Cross-Collateralized Group.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that, to the extent necessary and appropriate, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will execute (pursuant to a limited power of attorney provided by the Trustee who will not be liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any of its agents or subcontractors) the modification of the Loan Documents that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment of the ability of the Seller or the Trust Fund to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loan(s) held by such party resulting from the exercise of remedies by the other such party. All costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer with respect to any Cross-Collateralized Group pursuant to this paragraph and the first, second and third preceding paragraphs shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as provided for in Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and such advances and interest thereon shall be included in the calculation of Purchase Price for the Affected Loan(s) to be repurchased or replaced.

Subject to the Seller’s right to cure set forth above in this Section 6(e), and further subject to Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, failure of the Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8) and (18) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except such deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

If there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties securing a Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase such Mortgage Loan if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property(ies) are, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the related Loan Documents and the Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such

-18-

release would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

With respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees that if a “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) exists under the related Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan included in the related Outside Securitization Trust, and such Outside Serviced Companion Loan is repurchased by or on behalf of such Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) from the related Outside Securitization Trust as a result of such “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in such Outside Servicing Agreement), then the Seller shall repurchase such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) related solely to the promissory note for such Outside Serviced Companion Loan.

(f)                In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or more Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the repurchasing entity evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File (including, without limitation, the Servicing File) and other documents and all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the repurchasing or substituting entity or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and reconveyance of the Mortgage Loan and the security therefor to the Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. In the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan by the Seller as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian the related Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of any deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) and deliver or cause the delivery of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Upon any substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall become part of the Trust Fund and be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

-19-

(g)               The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Notes or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files.

(h)               Each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other party upon discovery of any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement. The Seller’s obligation to cure any Material Defect or to repurchase, or substitute for, or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to, any affected Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a breach of any of the Seller’s representations or warranties contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement or a Document Defect with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(i)                 The Seller shall promptly notify the Depositor if (i) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request (other than from the Depositor), (ii) the Seller repurchases or replaces a Mortgage Loan, (iii) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal (other than from the Depositor) or (iv) the Seller rejects or disputes any Repurchase Request. Each such notice shall be given no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after (A) with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding sentence, receipt of a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, as applicable, and (B) with respect to clauses (ii) and (iv) of the preceding sentence, the occurrence of the event giving rise to the requirement for such notice, and shall include (1) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan and the person making the Repurchase Request, (2) the date (x) such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal was received, (y) the related Mortgage Loan was repurchased or replaced or (z) the Repurchase Request was rejected or disputed, as applicable, and (3) if known, the basis for (x) the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) or (y) any rejection or dispute of a Repurchase Request, as applicable.

The Seller shall provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator the Seller’s “Central Index Key” number assigned by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and a true, correct and complete copy of the relevant portions of any Form ABS-15G that the Seller is required to file with the Commission under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Mortgage Loans, on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days before the date such Form ABS-15G is required to be filed with the Commission.

In addition, the Seller shall provide the Depositor, upon request, such other information in its possession as would permit the Depositor to comply with its obligations under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act to disclose fulfilled and unfulfilled repurchase requests. Any such information requested shall be provided as promptly as practicable after such request is made.

The Seller agrees that no Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider will be required to provide information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice that is protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. In addition, the Seller hereby acknowledges that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is so provided only to assist the Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law

-20-

or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to this Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.

Each party hereto agrees that the receipt of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice or the delivery of any notice required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6(i) shall not, in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of, receipt of notice of, or knowledge of the Seller of, any Material Defect.

Each party hereto agrees and acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, the “Central Index Key” number of the Trust Fund is 0002016125.

“Repurchase Communication” means, for purposes of this Section 6(i) only, any communication, whether oral or written, which need not be in any specific form.

(j)                 The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that it and the Purchaser have engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ernst & Young LLP (the “Accounting Firms”) to perform “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans and to prepare one or more “third-party due diligence reports” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act) (collectively, the “Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report”) in connection therewith. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Depositor that, except with respect to the Accounting Firms and the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report, the Seller, as of the Closing Date, (A) has not obtained any “third-party due diligence report” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act), and (B) has not retained any third party to engage in, and will not retain any third party to engage in, any activity that constitutes “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans, unless, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (B) and following the Closing Date, the Seller (i) provides prior written notice to the Depositor, (ii) requires the third-party due diligence provider to comply with its obligations under Section 15E(s)(4)(B) of, and Rule 17g-10 under, the Exchange Act (including with respect to the timely delivery to any applicable NRSRO and to the Depositor of a Form ABS Due Diligence-15E), and (iii) facilitates the Depositor’s compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3)(iii)(E) under the Exchange Act, with respect thereto. The Seller further represents and warrants that no portion of the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report contains, with respect to the information contained therein with respect to the Mortgage Loans, any names, addresses, other personal identifiers or zip codes with respect to any individuals, or any other personally identifiable or other information that would be associated with an individual, including without limitation any “nonpublic personal information” within the meaning of Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. The Underwriters and Initial Purchasers are third-party beneficiaries of the provisions set forth in this Section 6(j).

(k)               The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is not the Purchaser), the related Outside Servicing Agreement contains, or at the time such Outside Servicing Agreement is executed and delivered will contain, terms and provisions (or, to the extent

-21-

specified on Exhibit E to this Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement contains terms and provisions (and, to the extent contained in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the applicable documents provide that such terms and provisions are deemed included by reference into the related Outside Servicing Agreement)) that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement. The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is the Purchaser), the related Co-Lender Agreement does not contain any terms or provisions that conflict with (or that will conflict with) any terms or provisions in the related Outside Servicing Agreement that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement.

SECTION 7        Review of Mortgage File. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Custodian will be required to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and if it finds any document or documents not to have been properly executed, or to be missing or to be defective on its face in any material respect, to notify the Purchaser, which shall promptly notify the Seller.

SECTION 8        Conditions to Closing. The obligation of the Seller to sell the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the Seller having received the consideration for the Mortgage Loans as contemplated by Section 1 of this Agreement. The obligations of the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the satisfaction, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the following conditions:

(a)               Each of the obligations of the Seller required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall have been duly performed and complied with and all of the representations and warranties of the Seller under this Agreement shall, subject to any applicable exceptions set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement, be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date or as of such other date as of which such representation is made under the terms of Exhibit B to this Agreement, and no event shall have occurred as of the Closing Date which would constitute a default on the part of the Seller under this Agreement, and the Purchaser shall have received a certificate to the foregoing effect signed by the Seller substantially in the form of Exhibit D to this Agreement.

(b)               The Pooling and Servicing Agreement (to the extent it affects the obligations of the Seller hereunder), in such form as is agreed upon and acceptable to the Purchaser, the Seller, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and their respective counsel in their reasonable discretion, shall be duly executed and delivered by all signatories as required pursuant to the terms thereof.

-22-

(ii)                                 a certificate as of a recent date of the applicable regulatory body or governmental agency to the effect that the Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in the jurisdiction of its formation;

(v)                                 a letter from counsel of the Seller substantially to the effect that (a) nothing has come to such counsel’s attention that would lead such counsel to believe that the agreed upon sections of the Preliminary Prospectus (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Offering Circular, any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular or any final Loan-Specific Offering Circular, in each case as of the date thereof or as of the Closing Date (or, in the case of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular or any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular, solely as of the time of sale) contained or contain, as applicable, with respect to the Seller Information, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein relating to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (b) the Seller Information in the Prospectus appears to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of Regulation AB.

Except as set forth in Section 6(h) of this Agreement, the rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any party would otherwise have pursuant to law or equity. No notice to or demand on any party in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances, or constitute a waiver of the right of either party to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

SECTION 21    No Partnership. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed as creating an agency relationship between the Purchaser and the Seller and neither party shall take any action which could reasonably lead a third party to assume that it has the authority to bind the other party or make commitments on such party’s behalf.

-26-

SECTION 22    Miscellaneous. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

SECTION 23    Further Assurances. The Seller and Purchaser each agree to execute and deliver such instruments and take such further actions as any party hereto may, from time to time, reasonably request in order to effectuate the purposes and carry out the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 24    Recognition of U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

(a)               In the event a Covered Party (as defined below) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime (as defined below), the transfer of this Agreement (and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, this Agreement) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement (and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, this Agreement) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b)               In the event that a Covered Party or any BHC Affiliate (as defined below) of such Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights (as defined below) with respect to this Agreement that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(c)               For the purposes of this Section 24, the following definitions apply:

“BHC Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k).

Part 47 applies in accordance with 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.81, 12 C.F.R. § 47.2 or 12 C.F.R. § 382.1, as applicable.

“U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

EXHIBIT B

MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

(1) Whole Loan; Ownership of Mortgage Loans. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a Mortgage Loan. Each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is a portion of a whole loan evidenced by a Mortgage Note. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to the Purchaser, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller or, with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the trustee for the related Other Securitization Trust), participation or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. The Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Mortgage Loan, and the assignment to the Purchaser constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Mortgage Loan.

(2) Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Mortgage Loan documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment premium/yield maintenance charges) may be further limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Mortgage Loan documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the Mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Mortgage Loan documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by Seller in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, that would deny the Mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents.

Exhibit B-1

(3) Mortgage Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

(4) Hospitality Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan that is secured by a hospitality property operated pursuant to a franchise agreement includes an executed comfort letter or similar agreement signed by the Mortgagor and franchisor of such property enforceable by the Issuing Entity against such franchisor, either directly or as an assignee of the originator. The Mortgage or related security agreement for each Mortgage Loan secured by a hospitality property creates a security interest in the revenues of such property for which a UCC financing statement has been filed in the appropriate filing office.

(5) Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except by written instruments set forth in the related Mortgage File or as otherwise provided in the related Mortgage Loan documents (a)(1) there has been no forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan which such forbearance, waiver or modification relates to the COVID-19 emergency, (2) as of the Cut-Off Date, to the knowledge of the Seller, after due inquiry, there has been no written request from the related Mortgagor for a forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such request relates to the COVID-19 emergency and (3) other than as related to the COVID-19 emergency, the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Mortgage Loan guaranty and related Mortgage Loan documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the Mortgagor nor the guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the Mortgage Loan. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, except as contained in a written document included in the Mortgage File, there have been no modifications, amendments or waivers, that could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on such Mortgage Loan consented to by the Seller on or after the Cut-Off Date.

(6) Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each endorsement or assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases from the Seller or its affiliate is in recordable form (but for the insertion of the name of the assignee and any related recording information which is not yet available to the Seller) and constitutes a legal, valid and binding endorsement or assignment from the Seller, or its affiliate, as applicable. Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee (or if identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, leasehold) interest in the Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such

Exhibit B-2

Mortgage Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below) and the exceptions to paragraph 7 below (each such exception, a “Title Exception”)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions) as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy (as described below), and as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(7) Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy or a “marked up” commitment, in each case with escrow instructions and binding on the title insurer) (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record specifically identified in the Title Policy; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property; (f) if the related Mortgage Loan constitutes a cross collateralized Mortgage Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for another Mortgage Loan contained in the same cross collateralized group of Mortgage Loans, and (g) condominium declarations of record and identified in such Title Policy, provided that none of clauses (a) through (g), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or principal use of the Mortgaged Property, the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, or the current ability of the related Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). For purposes of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the

Exhibit B-3

date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon. Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the second preceding sentence none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of the Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy. Each Title Policy contains no exclusion for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such affirmative insurance is not available in which case such exclusion may exist), that the Mortgaged Property shown on the survey is the same as the property legally described in the Mortgage.

(8) Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Mortgage Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan, as of the Cut-Off Date there are no subordinate mortgages or junior mortgage liens encumbering the related Mortgaged Property other than Permitted Encumbrances, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (6) above), and equipment and other personal property financing. The Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor other than as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B.

(9) Assignment of Leases and Rents. There exists as part of the related Mortgage File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions (and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, subject to the related Assignment of Leases constituting security for the entire Whole Loan), each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to applicable law and the Standard Qualifications, provides that, upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan, a receiver may be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related Mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the Mortgagee.

(10) Financing Statements. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each Mortgage Loan or related security agreement establishes a valid security interest in, and a UCC-1 financing statement has been filed and/or recorded (or, in the case of fixtures, the Mortgage constitutes a fixture filing) in all places necessary at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan (or, if not filed and/or recorded, has submitted or caused to be submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording) to perfect a valid security interest in, the personal property (creation and perfection of which is governed by the UCC) owned by the

Exhibit B-4

Mortgagor and necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property in its current use other than (1) non-material personal property, (2) personal property subject to purchase money security interests and (3) personal property that is leased equipment. Each UCC-1 financing statement, if any, filed with respect to personal property constituting a part of the related Mortgaged Property and each UCC-3 assignment, if any, filed with respect to such financing statement was in suitable form for filing in the filing office in which such financing statement was filed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(11) Condition of Property. The Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six months of origination of the Mortgage Loan and within twelve months of the Cut-Off Date.

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan no more than twelve months prior to the Cut-Off Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the Closing Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than (i) deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination and (ii) any damage fully covered by insurance) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan.

(12) Taxes and Assessments. As of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, all taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges) due with respect to the Mortgaged Property (excluding any related personal property) securing a Mortgage Loan that is or could become a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that became due and owing prior to the Cut-Off Date with respect to each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or, if the appropriate amount of such taxes or charges is being appealed or is otherwise in dispute, the unpaid taxes or charges are covered by an escrow of funds or other security sufficient to pay such tax or charge and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon.

(13) Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding pending and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the date of origination and as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding threatened for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property.

(14) Actions Concerning Mortgage Loan. To the Seller’s knowledge, based on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7), an engineering report or property condition

Exhibit B-5

assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), as of origination there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Mortgage Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage Loan documents; (f) the current ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service such Mortgage Loan; or (g) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property.

(15) Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and escrow payments currently required to be escrowed with the Mortgagee pursuant to each Mortgage Loan (including capital improvements and environmental remediation reserves) are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no delinquencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required under the related Mortgage Loan documents are being conveyed by the Seller to the depositor or its servicer (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the depositor under the related Outside Servicing Agreement or the related Outside Servicer for the related Other Securitization Trust).

(16) No Holdbacks. The principal amount of the Mortgage Loan stated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule has been fully disbursed as of the Closing Date and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs, occupancy, performance or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by the Seller to merit such holdback).

(17) Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (as defined below), in an amount (subject to customary deductibles) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

Exhibit B-6

“Insurance Ratings Requirements” means either (1) a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” from S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, or (2) the Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements. “Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements” means insurance provided by a syndicate of insurers, as to which (i) if such syndicate consists of 5 or more members, at least 60% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 40% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, and (ii) if such syndicate consists of 4 or fewer members, at least 75% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 25% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with respect to each Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in an amount equal to the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program, plus such additional excess flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders originating mortgage loans for securitization.

If the Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor and included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements.

The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property

Exhibit B-7

damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the probable maximum loss or scenario expected loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the PML would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC in an amount not less than 100% of the PML.

The Mortgage Loan documents require insurance proceeds (or an amount equal to such insurance proceeds) in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, the Mortgagee (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section that are required by the Mortgage Loan documents to be paid as of the Cut-Off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the Mortgagee under the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the trustee (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the Mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by the Seller.

(18) Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Parcels. Based solely on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7) and survey, if any, an engineering report or property condition assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), each Mortgaged

Exhibit B-8

Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has permanent access from a recorded easement or right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and other utilities necessary for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, all of which are adequate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been made or is required to be made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax parcels (or the Mortgage Loan documents so require such application in the future), in which case the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which the Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax parcels are created.

(19) No Encroachments. To the Seller’s knowledge based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the Title Policy obtained in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan, and except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the current marketability or principal use of the Mortgaged Property: (a) all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; (b) no material improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; and (c) no material improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy.

(20) No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Mortgage Loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date) or an equity participation by the Seller.

(21) REMIC. The Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Mortgage Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and (B) either: (a) such Mortgage Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including permanently affixed buildings and structural components, such as wiring, plumbing systems and central heating and air-conditioning systems, that are integrated into such buildings, serve such buildings in their passive functions and do not produce or contribute to the production of income other than consideration for the use or occupancy of space, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Mortgage Loan was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date or (ii) at the Closing

Exhibit B-9

Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Closing Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Mortgage Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Mortgage Loan will not be considered “significantly modified” solely by reason of the borrower having been granted a COVID-19 related forbearance provided that: (a) such Mortgage Loan forbearance is covered by Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12) by reason of satisfying the requirements for such coverage stated in Section 5.02(2) of Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12); and (b) the Seller identifies such Mortgage Loan and provides (x) the date on which such forbearance was granted, (y) the length in months of the forbearance, and (z) how the payments in forbearance will be paid (that is, by extension of maturity, change of amortization schedule, etc.). Any prepayment premiums and yield maintenance charges applicable to the Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph will have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

(22) Compliance with Usury Laws. The mortgage rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) of such Mortgage Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(23) Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Cut-Off Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Mortgage Loan by the Issuing Entity.

(24) Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related Mortgagee.

Exhibit B-10

(25) Local Law Compliance. To the Seller’s knowledge, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, a survey, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan are in material compliance with applicable laws, zoning ordinances, rules, covenants, and restrictions (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) governing the occupancy, use, and operation of such Mortgaged Property or constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure and any non-conformity with zoning laws constitutes a legal non-conforming use or structure which does not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of such Mortgaged Property. In the event of casualty or destruction, (a) the Mortgaged Property may be restored or repaired to the full extent necessary to maintain the use of the structure immediately prior to such casualty or destruction, (b) law and ordinance insurance coverage has been obtained for the Mortgaged Property in amounts customarily required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, (c) title insurance policy coverage has been obtained with respect to any non-conforming use or structure, or (d) the inability to restore the Mortgaged Property to the full extent of the use or structure immediately prior to the casualty would not materially and adversely affect the use or operation of such Mortgaged Property. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

(26) Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents that it will keep all material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals necessary for the operation of the Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the Seller’s knowledge based upon any of a letter from any government authorities, zoning consultant’s report or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization; all such material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals are in effect or the failure to obtain or maintain such material licenses, permits, franchises or certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals does not materially and adversely affect the use and/or operation of the Mortgaged Property as it was used and operated as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan or the rights of a holder of the related Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable regulations, zoning and building laws.

(27) Recourse Obligations. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan (a) provide that such Mortgage Loan becomes full recourse to the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis) in any of the following events (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) if any petition for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation

Exhibit B-11

pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, will be filed by, consented to, or acquiesced in by, the Mortgagor; (ii) the Mortgagor or guarantor will have solicited or caused to be solicited petitioning creditors to cause an involuntary bankruptcy filing with respect to the Mortgagor or (iii) transfers of either the Mortgaged Property or controlling equity interests in the Mortgagor made in violation of the Mortgage Loan documents; and (b) contains provisions for recourse against the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis), for losses and damages resulting from the following (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) the Mortgagor’s misappropriation of rents after an event of default, security deposits, insurance proceeds, or condemnation awards; (ii) the Mortgagor’s fraud or intentional material misrepresentation; (iii) breaches of the environmental covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents; or (iv) the Mortgagor’s commission of intentional material physical waste at the Mortgaged Property (but, in some cases, only to the extent there is sufficient cash flow generated by the related Mortgaged Property to prevent such waste).

(28) Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Mortgage Loan documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial defeasance (as described in paragraph 33), in each case of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance (defined in paragraph 33 below), (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation. With respect to any partial release (including in connection with any partial Defeasance) under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) and (ii) would not cause the subject Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the Mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make

Exhibit B-12

a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions.

In the case of any Mortgage Loan, in the event of a condemnation or taking of any portion of a Mortgaged Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, unless an opinion of counsel is delivered as specified in clause (y) of the preceding paragraph, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, the condemnation proceeds or the award from any such taking may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans).

No such Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross collateralized with another Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties or a portion thereof, including due to a partial condemnation, other than in compliance with the loan-to-value ratio and other requirements of the REMIC Provisions.

(29) Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage Loan with (a) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, (b) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls (or maintenance schedules in the case of Mortgage Loans secured by residential cooperative properties) for properties that have any individual lease which accounts for more than 5% of the in-place base rent, and (c) annual financial statements.

(30) Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Mortgage Loan over $20 million, as of origination the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 and the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015 (collectively referred to as “TRIPRA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the Mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIPRA, or damages related thereto, except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by commercial availability on commercially reasonable terms, or as otherwise indicated on Exhibit C; provided, that if TRIPRA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then,

Exhibit B-13

provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Mortgage Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor will not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Mortgage Loan documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance) at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount.

(31) Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Mortgage Loan contains a “due-on-sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the Mortgagee which are customarily acceptable to the Seller, including, but not limited to, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Mortgage Loan documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold, other than as related to (i) family and estate planning transfers or transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (iii) transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in a Mortgagor, (iv) transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Mortgage Loan documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (v) transfers of common stock in publicly traded companies or (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraphs 28 and 33 herein, or (vii) by reason of any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B, or future permitted mezzanine debt as set forth on Schedule B-2 to this Exhibit B or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan of any Mortgage Loan or any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (ii) purchase money security interests (iii) any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-3 to this Exhibit B or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents provide that to the extent any Rating Agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

(32) Single-Purpose Entity. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Mortgage Loan is outstanding. Each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-Off Date Balance of $30 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-

Exhibit B-14

consolidation of the Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” means an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents and the related Mortgage Loan documents (or if the Mortgage Loan has a Cut-Off Date Balance equal to $10 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Mortgage Loan documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Mortgage Loan documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Mortgage Loan documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with the related Mortgage Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

(33) Defeasance. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that, pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, can be defeased (a “Defeasance”), (i) the Mortgage Loan documents provide for defeasance as a unilateral right of the Mortgagor, subject to satisfaction of conditions specified in the Mortgage Loan documents; (ii) the Mortgage Loan cannot be defeased within two years after the Closing Date; (iii) the Mortgagor is permitted to pledge only United States “government securities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), the revenues from which will, in the case of a full Defeasance, be sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Loan when due, including the entire remaining principal balance on the maturity date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) or, if the Mortgage Loan is an ARD Mortgage Loan, the entire principal balance outstanding on the Anticipated Repayment Date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium), and if the Mortgage Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (A) 110% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and (B) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; (iv) the defeasance collateral is not permitted to be subject to prepayment, call, or early redemption; (v) the Mortgagor is required to provide a certification from an independent certified public accountant that the collateral is sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note as set forth in clause (iii) above; (vi) the defeased note and the defeasance collateral are required to be assumed by a Single-Purpose Entity; (vii) the Mortgagor is required to provide an opinion of counsel that the Trustee has a perfected security interest in such collateral prior to any other claim or interest; and (viii) the Mortgagor is required to pay all rating agency fees associated with defeasance (if rating confirmation is a specific condition precedent thereto) and all other reasonable expenses associated with defeasance, including, but not limited to, accountant’s fees and opinions of counsel.

Exhibit B-15

(34) Fixed Interest Rates. Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except in the case of ARD Mortgage Loans and situations where default interest is imposed.

(35) Ground Leases. For purposes of this Exhibit B, a “Ground Lease” means a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a Ground Leasehold estate in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of the Seller, its successors and assigns (collectively, the “Ground Lease and Related Documents”), the Seller represents and warrants that:

(a) The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease and Related Documents permit the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and do not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage. No material change in the terms of the Ground Lease had occurred since the origination of the Mortgage Loan, except by any written instruments which are included in the related Mortgage File;

(b) The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Mortgage File (or in such Ground Lease and Related Documents) that the Ground Lease may not be amended, modified, canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee;

(c) The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Mortgage Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Mortgage Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

(d) The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any interests, estates, liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions; or (ii) is the subject of a subordination, non-disturbance or attornment agreement or similar agreement to which the Mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest is subject;

Exhibit B-16

(e) Subject to the notice requirements of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, the Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid), and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid);

(f) The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Closing Date;

(g) The Ground Lease and Related Documents require the lessor to give to the Mortgagee written notice of any default, provided that no notice of default or termination is effective against the Mortgagee unless such notice is given to the Mortgagee;

(h) A Mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the Mortgagee’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i) The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by the Seller in connection with the origination of similar commercial or multifamily loans intended for securitization;

(j) Under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest (other than in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in subpart (k)) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents) the Mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest;

Exhibit B-17

(k) In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l) Provided that the Mortgagee cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with the Mortgagee upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

(36) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been, in all respects legal and have met with customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for conduit loan programs.

(37) Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Mortgage Loan and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Exhibit B.

(38) No Material Default; Payment Record. No Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required payments in the prior 12 months (or since origination if such Mortgage Loan has been originated within the past 12 months), and as of Cut-Off Date, no Mortgage Loan is delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Mortgage Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Exhibit B. No person other than the holder of such Mortgage Loan may declare any event of default under the Mortgage Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under the Mortgage Loan documents.

(39) Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, neither the Mortgaged Property (other than any tenants of such Mortgaged Property), nor any portion thereof, is the subject of, and no Mortgagor,

Exhibit B-18

guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

(40) Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan and other than as set forth on Schedule B-4 to this Exhibit B, no Mortgage Loan has a Mortgagor that is an Affiliate of a Mortgagor with respect to another Mortgage Loan. An “Affiliate” for purposes of this paragraph (40) means, a Mortgagor that is under direct or indirect common ownership and control with another Mortgagor.

(41) Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II environmental site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable environmental laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related Mortgagee; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated or contained in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action, completion or closure letter or its equivalent was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than “A-” (or the equivalent) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, Fitch Ratings, Inc. and/or A.M. Best Company; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the

Exhibit B-19

Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

(42) Appraisal. The Servicing File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within 6 months of the Mortgage Loan origination date, and within 12 months of the Cut-Off Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser that (i) is a Member of the Appraisal Institute, and (ii) to the Seller’s knowledge, had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation. Each appraisal contains a statement or is accomplished by a letter from the appraiser, to the effect that the appraisal was performed in accordance with the requirement of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as in effect on the date such Mortgage Loan was originated.

(43) Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Mortgage Loan which is set forth in the mortgage loan schedule attached as an exhibit to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement is true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date and contains all information required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be contained therein.

(44) Cross-Collateralization. No Mortgage Loan is cross collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other mortgage loan that is outside the Mortgage Pool, except in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan.

(45) Advance of Funds by the Seller. Except for loan proceeds advanced at the time of loan origination or other payments contemplated by the Mortgage Loan documents, no advance of funds has been made by the Seller to the related Mortgagor, and no funds have been received from any person other than the related Mortgagor or an affiliate, directly, or, to the knowledge of the Seller, indirectly for, or on account of, payments due on the Mortgage Loan. Neither the Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contribution to any Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan, other than contributions made on or prior to the Closing Date.

(46) Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Seller has complied in all material respects with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Mortgage Loan.

For purposes of this Exhibit B, “Mortgagee” means the mortgagee, grantee or beneficiary under any Mortgage, any holder of legal title to any portion of any Mortgage Loan or, if applicable, any agent or servicer on behalf of such party.

Exhibit B-20

For purposes of this Exhibit B, “Mortgagor” means the obligor or obligors on a Mortgage Note, including without limitation, any person that has acquired the related Mortgaged Property and assumed the obligations of the original obligor under the Mortgage Note and including in connection with any Mortgage Loan that utilizes an indemnity deed of trust structure, the borrower and the Mortgaged Property owner/payment guarantor/mortgagor individually and collectively, as the context may require.

For purposes of this Exhibit B, the phrases “the Seller’s knowledge” or “the Seller’s belief” and other words and phrases of like import mean, except where otherwise expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, the actual state of knowledge or belief of the Seller, its officers and employees directly responsible for the underwriting, origination, servicing or sale of the Mortgage Loans regarding the matters expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, in each case without having conducted any independent inquiry into such matters and without any obligation to have done so (except (i) having sent to the servicers servicing the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Seller, if any, specific inquiries regarding the matters referred to and (ii) as expressly set forth in these representations and warranties). All information contained in documents which are part of or required to be part of a Mortgage File (to the extent such documents exist) will be deemed within the Seller’s knowledge.

This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of May 1, 2024, is between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as purchaser (the “Purchaser”), and Argentic Real Estate Finance 2 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as seller (the “Seller”).

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Purchaser, as depositor (in such capacity, the “Depositor”), Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and as asset representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”), Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”) and as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), pursuant to which the Purchaser will transfer the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein), together with certain other commercial, multifamily and/or manufactured housing community mortgage loans (collectively, the “Other Loans”), to a trust fund (the “Trust Fund”). In exchange for the Mortgage Loans and the Other Loans, the Trust Fund will issue, to or at the direction of the Depositor, certificates to be known as BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4 (collectively, the “Certificates”), and any Uncertificated Interests (if applicable).

For purposes of this Agreement, “Mortgage Loans” refers to the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (including as reflected in any footnotes to such exhibit) and “Mortgaged Properties” refers to the properties securing such Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller is selling one or more Co-sponsored Mortgage Loans, each such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is identified on Annex A to this Agreement. A “Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan” is (i) part of an entire Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or part of a Whole Loan, (ii) comprised of 2 or more separate Notes being sold to the Purchaser by two or more separate sellers (also referred to as Applicable Co-sponsors) as identified on Annex A to this Agreement, and (iii) if such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is part of a Whole Loan, comprised of the entire portion of such Whole Loan that is being contributed to the Trust (i.e. there may be other Notes evidencing Companion Loans that are not contributed to the Trust). “Applicable Co-sponsor” means, as to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, each seller of the subject Notes to the Purchaser, as identified on Annex A to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, although the term “Mortgage Loan” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Offering Documents means the entire such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, for the purposes of determining any rights or obligations of the Seller and the related Applicable Co-sponsor(s) with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Applicable Co-sponsor’s related mortgage loan purchase agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the term “Mortgage Loan” refers to the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) contributed to the Trust by such Applicable Co-sponsor and such promissory note(s) shall be treated like a separate Mortgage Loan.

The Purchaser and the Seller wish to prescribe the manner of sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser and in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, agree as follows:

SECTION 1        Sale and Conveyance of Mortgages; Possession of Mortgage File. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, representation or warranty (except as otherwise specifically set forth herein), subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan (other than any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”), including all interest and principal received or receivable on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding payments of principal and interest and other amounts due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-Off Date and excluding any Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loans).

In addition, on the Closing Date, solely in the event the initial Distribution Date occurs in February (except during a leap year) or March, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer (for deposit into the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account) (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Trust Fund the aggregate Initial Interest Deposit Amount with respect to those Mortgage Loans that accrue interest on an Actual/360 Basis, which Initial Interest Deposit Amount for each such Mortgage Loan shall represent an amount equal to (i) if the initial Distribution Date is in February, one day of interest (except during a leap year), and (ii) if the initial Distribution Date is in March, two days of interest (or one day of interest during a leap year), in each case, at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the related Cut-Off Date Balance of each such Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, no Initial Interest Deposit Amount will be due and owing if (i) the initial Distribution Date does not occur in February or March, or (ii) if the initial Distribution Date occurs in February during a leap year.

In addition, on the Closing Date, if one or more Mortgage Loans is identified opposite the Seller’s name on Annex B to this Agreement (which Mortgage Loans do not have a Due Date in the month of the first Distribution Date), the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer or the Certificate Administrator (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), for deposit into the account set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on behalf of the Seller and for the benefit of the Trust Fund, the Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount with respect to each such Mortgage Loan, which Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount shall represent an amount equal to one-month’s interest accrued with respect to each such Mortgage Loan at the related Net Mortgage Rate for the month preceding the month of the first Distribution Date.

Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Note, the Seller’s interest in the related Mortgage represented by the Note and the other contents of the related Mortgage File (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) will be vested in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee, and the ownership of records and documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than those to be held by the holder of any related Companion Loan

-2-

that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) prepared by or which come into the possession of the Seller shall (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) immediately vest in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee. In connection with the transfer pursuant to this Section 1 of any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, the Seller does hereby assign to the Purchaser all of its rights, title and interest (solely in its capacity as the holder of the subject Mortgage Loan) in, to and under the related Co-Lender Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the Seller does not assign any right, title or interest that it or any other party may have thereunder in its capacity as the holder of any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). The Seller’s assignment of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement.

The Purchaser will sell: (i) the Public Certificates to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Underwriters; (ii) the Private Certificates to the Initial Purchasers (the Initial Purchasers, collectively with the Underwriters, are referred to herein as the “Dealers”) specified in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Initial Purchasers; and (iii) if applicable, any classes of Loan-Specific Certificates pursuant to a related purchase agreement between the Purchaser and any applicable Loan-Specific Initial Purchasers identified therein.

The sale and conveyance of the Mortgage Loans is being conducted on an arms-length basis and upon commercially reasonable terms. As the consideration for the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser shall: (i) pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Seller or at the Seller’s direction that sum set forth in the funding schedule executed by the Seller and the Purchaser relating to the sale of the Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby (but subject to certain post-settlement adjustments for expenses incurred by the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Depositor and for which the Seller is specifically responsible); and (ii) if the Seller is listed on Annex C to this Agreement, cause any Uncertificated Interests or Class VRR Certificates identified on Annex C hereto opposite the Seller’s name to be registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in the name of the Seller.

The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2        Books and Records; Certain Funds Received After the Cut-Off Date. From and after the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, record title to each Mortgage (other than with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Note shall be transferred to the Trustee subject to and in accordance with this Agreement. Any funds due after the Cut-Off Date in connection with a Mortgage Loan received by the Seller shall be held in trust on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders) as the owner of such Mortgage Loan and shall be transferred promptly to the Certificate Administrator. All scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date but collected after the Cut-Off Date, and all recoveries and payments of principal and interest collected on or before the Cut-Off Date (only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-Off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall belong to, and shall be promptly remitted to, the Seller.

-3-

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Seller’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the sale of such Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser. The Seller intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser as a sale for tax purposes. Following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser, the Seller shall not take any actions inconsistent with the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser and its assignees.

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Purchaser’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the purchase of such Mortgage Loan by the Purchaser from the Seller. The Purchaser intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the Seller as a purchase for tax purposes. The Purchaser shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a set of records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the transfer of ownership of each Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Seller will receive the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 3        Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Additional Costs and Expenses. (a) The Purchaser hereby directs the Seller, and the Seller hereby agrees, such agreement effective upon the transfer of the Mortgage Loans as contemplated herein, to deliver to and deposit with (or to cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Custodian (on behalf of the Trustee), with copies (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to be delivered to the Master Servicer, on the dates set forth in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered by the Purchaser, or contemplated to be delivered by the Seller (whether at the direction of the Purchaser or otherwise), to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, with respect to the Mortgage Loans under Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and meeting all the requirements of such Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

With respect to letters of credit (exclusive of those relating to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer, and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall require the Master Servicer to hold, the original (or copy, if such original has been submitted by the Seller to the issuing bank to effect an assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer) for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, to the extent required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents)) and the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied any such delivery requirements by delivering with respect to any letter(s) of credit a copy thereof to the Custodian together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller certifying that such document has been delivered to the Master Servicer or an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that it holds the letter(s) of credit pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If a letter of credit

-4-

referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents, the Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Master Servicer within 90 days of the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(b)               Except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall deliver to and deposit with (or cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date: (i) a copy of the Mortgage File; (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan(s), (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any related asset summaries that were delivered to the Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Certificates, material notices related to tenant leases, and any related operating statements, financial statements, appraisals or similar reports) or any related Serviced Companion Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans or holders of interests therein, and (C) are in the possession or under the control of the Seller; and (iii) all unapplied Escrow Payments and reserve funds in the possession or under control of the Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans together with a statement indicating which Escrow Payments and reserve funds are allocable to each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3(b) shall not apply to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by any Mortgaged Property that is subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any such related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Seller or its designee shall, within 45 days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor for the transfer or assignment of such comfort letter or issuance of a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), with a copy of such notice or request to the Custodian (who shall include such document

-5-

in the related Mortgage File) and the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, deliver the original of such replacement comfort letter, new document or acknowledgement, as applicable, to the Custodian for inclusion in the Mortgage File.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver Mortgage Note(s) to the Custodian shall be limited to delivery to the Custodian of only the Mortgage Note(s) held by such Applicable Co-sponsor. With respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver the remaining portion of the related Mortgage File or any remaining document required to be delivered with respect thereto shall be joint and several, provided that any one of the Applicable Co-sponsors may deliver one Mortgage File (exclusive of the related Mortgage Notes) or one of any other remaining document required to be delivered with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan hereunder and under the mortgage loan purchase agreement(s) between the Purchaser and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s), and such delivery shall satisfy the corresponding delivery requirements for both the Seller and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s).

(e)               Upon written request from the Special Servicer, the Seller shall deliver a power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement to the Special Servicer, that permits the Special Servicer to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement actions by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 4        Treatment as a Security Agreement. Pursuant to Section 1 hereof, the Seller has conveyed to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the parties also intend and agree that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and in such event does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal or interest on such Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-Off Date, all other payments made in respect of such Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date) and all proceeds thereof, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser hypothecating and transferring such security interest in favor of the Trustee and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Trustee.

SECTION 5        Covenants of the Seller. The Seller covenants with the Purchaser as follows:

(a)               with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), it shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file, in

-6-

the appropriate public recording office for real property records or UCC financing statements, as appropriate, each related assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases, and each related UCC-3 financing statement referred to in the definition of Mortgage File, in each case in favor of the Trustee, as and to the extent contemplated under Section 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the recordation or filing of such assignments of Assignment of Leases, assignments of Mortgage and financing statements shall be paid by (or caused to be paid by) the Seller. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and the Seller shall record or file, or cause the recording or filing of, such substitute or corrected document or instrument, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to such third party (or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan);

(b)               as to each Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the Seller cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, it shall forward to the Custodian a copy of the original certified by the Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording. The Seller shall cause each assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above to reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the Seller or its designee, in which case the Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof;

(c)               except for actions that are the express responsibility of another party hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer, including effectuating the transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and any Serviced Companion Loan Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(c) shall not apply with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan;

(d)               the Seller shall provide the Master Servicer the initial data with respect to each Mortgage Loan for the CREFC^® Financial File and the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File that are required to be prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

-7-

(e)               if (during the period of time that the Underwriters are required, under applicable law, to deliver a prospectus related to the Public Certificates in connection with sales of the Public Certificates by an Underwriter or a dealer) the Seller has obtained actual knowledge of undisclosed or corrected information related to an event that occurred prior to the Closing Date, which event causes there to be an untrue statement of a material fact with respect to the Seller Information (as such term is defined in the Indemnification Agreement) in the Prospectus, the Offering Circular or any Loan-Specific Offering Circular (the Prospectus, the Offering Circular and any Loan-Specific Offering Circular are collectively referred to herein as the “Offering Documents”), or causes there to be an omission to state therein a material fact with respect to the Seller Information required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein with respect to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Seller shall promptly notify the Dealers and the Depositor. If as a result of any such event the Dealers’ legal counsel determines that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Documents in order to correct the untrue statement, or to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or to make the Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to the Seller Information) at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Dealers, such amendments or supplements to the Offering Documents as may be necessary so that the Seller Information in the Offering Documents, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law. (All capitalized terms used in this Section 5(e) and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date for the Certificates, between, among others, the Dealers, the Seller and the Depositor (the “Indemnification Agreement” and, together with this Agreement, the “Operative Documents”).) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall have no affirmative obligation to monitor the performance of the Mortgage Loans or any changes in condition or circumstance of any Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor, guarantor or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date in connection with its obligations under this Section 5(e);

(f)                for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Seller shall: (1) provide the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and any Form 8-K Disclosure Information for which the Seller is responsible as indicated on Exhibit U, Exhibit V and Exhibit Z to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that, in connection with providing Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and the Seller’s reporting obligations under Item 1119 of Regulation AB, upon reasonable request by the Seller, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a list of all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any other Servicing Function Participant; and (2) reasonably cooperate with each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, upon the reasonable request of such party, by providing all Mortgage Loan related documents, data and information in the possession of the Seller at or prior to the Closing Date and on the date of such request and necessary for the ongoing compliance by the Depositor and the Trust with the requirements of Form 10-D with respect to Items 1111 and 1125 of Regulation AB; provided, that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the

-8-

related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(g)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered an electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence File (including, if applicable, any additional documents that the Seller believes should be included to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform an Asset Review on such Mortgage Loan; provided that such documents are clearly labeled and identified) to the Designated Site, each such Diligence File being organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor;

(h)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Depositor (with a copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) with a certification by an authorized officer of the Seller, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, that the electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan uploaded to the Designated Site contains all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor, which such certification or copies thereof may be sent via email;

(i)                 upon written request of the Asset Representations Reviewer (in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for a Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan), the Seller shall provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written request (which time period may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the Seller and the Asset Representations Reviewer), such documents requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer and in the possession of the Seller relating to each such Delinquent Loan to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete any Test for each such Delinquent Loan, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(j)                 upon the completion of an Asset Review with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan and receipt by the Seller of a written invoice from the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Seller shall pay to the Asset Representations Reviewer, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such written invoice, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to such Delinquent Loan as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to adjustment with respect to any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan(s), as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(k)               if the Preliminary Asset Review Report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the Seller shall have 90 days

-9-

from receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report. If the Seller elects to refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report, the Seller shall provide to the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test;

(l)                 the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event an Enforcing Party elects a dispute resolution method pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Seller shall abide by the selected dispute resolution method and otherwise comply with the terms and provisions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) related to the resolution method;

(m)             the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages and other liabilities, including without limitation the costs of investigation, legal defense and any amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation arising out of or based upon (i) any failure of the Seller to pay the fees described under Section 5(j) above within 90 days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) any failure by the Seller to provide all documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to Sections 5(g) and 5(i) of this Agreement and under the definition of “Diligence File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within 60 days of the Closing Date (or such later date specified herein or in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); and

(n)               with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is (or may become pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement) part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan, (x) in the event that the Closing Date occurs on or prior to the closing date of the related Outside Securitization Trust (such event, the “Outside Securitization”), the Seller shall provide (or cause to be provided) to the Depositor (and counsel thereto) and the Certificate Administrator (i) written notice in a timely manner of (but no later than three (3) Business Days prior to) the closing date of such Outside Securitization, and (ii) no later than one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization, a copy of the Outside Servicing Agreement in an EDGAR-compatible format, and (y) in the event that the Closing Date occurs after the closing date of the Outside Securitization, the Seller shall provide, or cause the Outside Depositor to provide, the Depositor (and counsel thereto) with a copy of the related Outside Servicing Agreement (together with any amendments thereto) in an EDGAR-compatible format by the later of (i) two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and (ii) one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization.

SECTION 6        Representations and Warranties.

(a)               The Seller represents and warrants to the Purchaser as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date that:

(i)                 The Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation with full power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business, is duly qualified as a foreign organization in good standing in all

-10-

jurisdictions to the extent such qualification is necessary to hold and sell the Mortgage Loans or otherwise comply with its obligations under this Agreement except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations hereunder, and the Seller has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution and delivery of, and performance under, the Operative Documents and has duly executed and delivered each Operative Document, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform under each Operative Document and all the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, but not limited to, the power and authority to sell, assign, transfer, set over and convey the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement;

(ii)                     Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser, this Agreement will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (B) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (C) public policy considerations underlying the securities laws, to the extent that such public policy considerations limit the enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement that purport to provide indemnification for securities laws liabilities;

(iii)                The execution and delivery of each Operative Document by the Seller and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which the Seller is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Seller’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Seller, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Seller’s assets or property, in each case, which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents;

(iv)                 There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Seller’s knowledge, threatened against the Seller in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of the Mortgage Loans or the ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by each Operative Document;

(v)                    The Seller is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that, in the Seller’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Seller or its properties or might have consequences that, in the Seller’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

-11-

(vi)                        No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of, or compliance by the Seller with, each Operative Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other than those which have been obtained by the Seller and those filings and recordings of Loan Documents and assignments thereof that are contemplated by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be completed after the Closing Date;

(viii)                 The Seller is solvent, and the sale of the Mortgage Loans hereunder will not cause it to become insolvent; and the sale of the Mortgage Loans is not undertaken by the Seller with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of the Seller’s creditors.

(b)               The Purchaser represents and warrants to the Seller as of the Closing Date that:

(i)                 The Purchaser is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with full corporate power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business, is duly qualified as a foreign corporation in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of its property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Purchaser to perform its obligations hereunder, and the Purchaser has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it, and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all the transactions contemplated hereby;

(ii)              Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller, this Agreement will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);

(iii)            The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser and the performance of its obligations hereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which the Purchaser is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Purchaser’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Purchaser, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Purchaser’s assets or property, in each case which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Purchaser to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

-12-

(iv)                  There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against the Purchaser in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of this Agreement or any action taken in connection with the obligations of the Purchaser contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the Purchaser to perform under the terms of this Agreement;

(v)                     The Purchaser is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Purchaser or its properties or might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

(vi)                    No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of, or compliance by the Purchaser with, this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than those that have been obtained by the Purchaser; and

(vii)                 The Purchaser has (i) prepared a report on Form ABS-15G under the Exchange Act (the “Form 15G”) that attaches the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report (as defined herein) (a final draft of which Form 15G was provided to the Seller at least 5 business days before the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates); and (ii) furnished the Form 15G to the Commission (as defined herein) on EDGAR at least 5 business days before the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates as required by Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act.

(c)               The Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to the Mortgage Loans (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) set forth on Exhibit B to this Agreement as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit B to this Agreement, which representations and warranties are subject to the exceptions thereto set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement. If the Seller’s Mortgage Loans contain a related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, then such Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to such related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan set forth on Exhibit I to this Agreement (if any) as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit I to this Agreement.

(d)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, if (i) any party thereto (other than the Asset Representations Reviewer) discovers or receives notice alleging that any document required to be included in a Mortgage File by (or on behalf of) the Seller has not been properly executed, is missing, contains information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or does not appear to be regular on its face (each, a “Document Defect”), or discovers or receives notice alleging a breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller made pursuant to Section 6(c) of this Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan (a “Breach”) or (ii) the Special Servicer or the

-13-

Purchaser receives a Repurchase Request, then such party is required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller.

(e)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Enforcing Servicer is required to determine whether any such Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan materially and adversely affects, or such Document Defect is deemed in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to materially and adversely affect, the value of the Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or the interests of the Trustee or any Certificateholder in the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or causes any Mortgage Loan to fail to be a Qualified Mortgage (any such Document Defect shall constitute a “Material Document Defect” and any such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach”; and a Material Breach and/or a Material Document Defect, as the case may be, shall constitute a “Material Defect”). If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect, then the Enforcing Servicer will be required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller, demanding that the Seller cure such Material Defect. Promptly upon becoming aware of any such Material Defect (including, without limitation, through a written notice given by any party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as provided above if the Document Defect or Breach identified therein is a Material Defect), the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the Seller’s (x) discovery of, and (y) receipt of notice of and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to such Material Defect (or, in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days from any party discovering such Material Defect), cure the same in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of any losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses associated therewith (including, if applicable, the amount of any fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer payable pursuant to Section 5(j) above attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan)) or, if such Material Defect cannot be cured within such 90-day period, the Seller shall (before the end of such 90-day period) either: (i) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property (or the Trust Fund’s interest therein) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account; or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date and in no event shall any such substitution be effected with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) and pay the Master Servicer, for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith; provided, that the Seller may not repurchase any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan without repurchasing its Mortgage Loan that is part of the same Whole Loan (so long as there is a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan); and provided, further, however, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such 90-day period, then the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure (or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as described above) it being understood and agreed that, in connection with the Seller’s receiving such additional 90-day period, the Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day period and what actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the Seller anticipates that such Material Defect

-14-

will be cured within such additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the initial 90-day period and any such additional 90-day period solely due to the failure of the Seller to have received the recorded document, then the Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect so long as the Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator every 30 days thereafter that the Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date. Any such repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. The Seller shall have no obligation to monitor the Mortgage Loans regarding the existence of a Breach or a Document Defect, but if the Seller discovers a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, it will notify the Purchaser. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-Off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and shall be required, under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller promptly following receipt. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. No mortgage loan may be substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Section 6(e) if the Mortgage Loan to be replaced was itself a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that had replaced a prior Mortgage Loan, in which case, absent a cure (including by the making of a Loss of Value Payment pursuant to the following paragraph) of the relevant Material Defect, the affected Mortgage Loan will be required to be repurchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), in lieu of the Seller performing its obligations with respect to any Material Defect as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to the extent that the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer (subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder or, in the case of any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative so long as it is the applicable Directing Holder) as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, are able to agree upon a cash payment payable by the Seller to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, that would be deemed sufficient to compensate the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, for a Material Defect (a “Loss of Value Payment”), the Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such Loss of Value Payment to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable; provided that a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage, may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment; and provided, further, that the Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Loss of Value Payment relates to a Co-sponsored

-15-

Mortgage Loan, the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement). Upon its making a Loss of Value Payment, the Seller shall be deemed to have cured the subject Material Defect in all respects. Provided that such Loss of Value Payment is made, this paragraph describes the sole remedy available to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, and its assignees regarding any such Material Defect, and the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase or replace the affected Mortgage Loan or otherwise cure such Material Defect. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, provided that, prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Seller or the Enforcing Servicer, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and within the time frames set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this Section 6(e) (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan).

If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as described above (a “Defective Mortgage Loan”), (y) such Defective Mortgage Loan is part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and (z) the applicable Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Material Defect as to the other Mortgage Loan(s) that are a part of such Cross-Collateralized Group (the “Other Crossed Loans”) (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Document Defect or Breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to each such Other Crossed Loan for purposes of the above provisions, and the Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such Other Crossed Loan in accordance with the provisions above unless, in the case of such Breach or Document Defect, as applicable:

(A) the Seller (at its expense) delivers or causes to be delivered to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Seller’s repurchase or replacement of only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Defect has actually occurred without regard to the provisions of this paragraph (the “Affected Loan(s)”) and the operation of the remaining provisions of this Section 6(e) (i) will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Certificate is outstanding and (ii) will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code); and

(B)  each of the following conditions would be satisfied if the Seller were to repurchase or replace only the Affected Loans and not the Other Crossed Loans:

(1)   the debt service coverage ratio for such Other Crossed Loan(s) (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not less than the lesser of (A) 0.10x below the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus and (B) the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-

-16-

Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) for the four preceding calendar quarters preceding the repurchase or replacement;

(2)   the loan-to-value ratio for the Other Crossed Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the greatest of (A) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus plus 10%, (B) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) at the time of repurchase or replacement and (C) 75%; and

(3)   either (x) the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group will not impair the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group or (y) the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans have been modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that removes any threat of impairment of the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group as a result of the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group.

The determination of the Enforcing Servicer as to whether the conditions set forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error on the Certificateholders, other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Seller. The Enforcing Servicer will be entitled to cause to be delivered, or direct the Seller to (in which case the Seller shall) cause to be delivered, to the Enforcing Servicer an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause (B)(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the Seller if the scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the Seller and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in each case).

With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan that forms a part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and as to which the conditions described in the second preceding paragraph are satisfied, such that the Trust Fund will continue to hold the Other Crossed Loans, the Seller and the Depositor agree to forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each is permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan(s) still held by the Trust Fund. If the exercise of remedies by one such party would impair the ability of the other such party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan or the Other Crossed Loans, as the case may be, held by the other such party, then both parties shall forbear from exercising such remedies unless and until the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans can be modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment as a result of the

-17-

exercise of remedies. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing any of the Mortgage Loans that form a Cross-Collateralized Group shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Loan Documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. All other terms of the Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect, without any modification thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall be binding on all future holders of each Mortgage Loan that forms part of a Cross-Collateralized Group.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that, to the extent necessary and appropriate, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will execute (pursuant to a limited power of attorney provided by the Trustee who will not be liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any of its agents or subcontractors) the modification of the Loan Documents that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment of the ability of the Seller or the Trust Fund to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loan(s) held by such party resulting from the exercise of remedies by the other such party. All costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer with respect to any Cross-Collateralized Group pursuant to this paragraph and the first, second and third preceding paragraphs shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as provided for in Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and such advances and interest thereon shall be included in the calculation of Purchase Price for the Affected Loan(s) to be repurchased or replaced.

Subject to the Seller’s right to cure set forth above in this Section 6(e), and further subject to Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, failure of the Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8) and (18) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except such deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

If there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties securing a Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase such Mortgage Loan if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property(ies) are, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the related Loan Documents and the Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such

-18-

release would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

With respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees that if a “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) exists under the related Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan included in the related Outside Securitization Trust, and such Outside Serviced Companion Loan is repurchased by or on behalf of such Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) from the related Outside Securitization Trust as a result of such “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in such Outside Servicing Agreement), then the Seller shall repurchase such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) related solely to the promissory note for such Outside Serviced Companion Loan.

(f)                In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or more Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the repurchasing entity evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File (including, without limitation, the Servicing File) and other documents and all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the repurchasing or substituting entity or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and reconveyance of the Mortgage Loan and the security therefor to the Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. In the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan by the Seller as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian the related Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of any deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) and deliver or cause the delivery of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Upon any substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall become part of the Trust Fund and be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

-19-

(g)               The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Notes or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files.

(h)               Each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other party upon discovery of any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement. The Seller’s obligation to cure any Material Defect or to repurchase, or substitute for, or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to, any affected Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a breach of any of the Seller’s representations or warranties contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement or a Document Defect with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(i)                 The Seller shall promptly notify the Depositor if (i) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request (other than from the Depositor), (ii) the Seller repurchases or replaces a Mortgage Loan, (iii) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal (other than from the Depositor) or (iv) the Seller rejects or disputes any Repurchase Request. Each such notice shall be given no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after (A) with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding sentence, receipt of a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, as applicable, and (B) with respect to clauses (ii) and (iv) of the preceding sentence, the occurrence of the event giving rise to the requirement for such notice, and shall include (1) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan and the person making the Repurchase Request, (2) the date (x) such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal was received, (y) the related Mortgage Loan was repurchased or replaced or (z) the Repurchase Request was rejected or disputed, as applicable, and (3) if known, the basis for (x) the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) or (y) any rejection or dispute of a Repurchase Request, as applicable.

The Seller shall provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator the Seller’s “Central Index Key” number assigned by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and a true, correct and complete copy of the relevant portions of any Form ABS-15G that the Seller is required to file with the Commission under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Mortgage Loans, on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days before the date such Form ABS-15G is required to be filed with the Commission.

In addition, the Seller shall provide the Depositor, upon request, such other information in its possession as would permit the Depositor to comply with its obligations under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act to disclose fulfilled and unfulfilled repurchase requests. Any such information requested shall be provided as promptly as practicable after such request is made.

The Seller agrees that no Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider will be required to provide information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice that is protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. In addition, the Seller hereby acknowledges that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is so provided only to assist the Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law

-20-

or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to this Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.

Each party hereto agrees that the receipt of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice or the delivery of any notice required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6(i) shall not, in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of, receipt of notice of, or knowledge of the Seller of, any Material Defect.

Each party hereto agrees and acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, the “Central Index Key” number of the Trust Fund is 0002016125.

“Repurchase Communication” means, for purposes of this Section 6(i) only, any communication, whether oral or written, which need not be in any specific form.

(j)                 The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that it and the Purchaser have engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ernst & Young LLP (the “Accounting Firms”) to perform “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans and to prepare one or more “third-party due diligence reports” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act) (collectively, the “Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report”) in connection therewith. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Depositor that, except with respect to the Accounting Firms and the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report, the Seller, as of the Closing Date, (A) has not obtained any “third-party due diligence report” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act), and (B) has not retained any third party to engage in, and will not retain any third party to engage in, any activity that constitutes “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans, unless, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (B) and following the Closing Date, the Seller (i) provides prior written notice to the Depositor, (ii) requires the third-party due diligence provider to comply with its obligations under Section 15E(s)(4)(B) of, and Rule 17g-10 under, the Exchange Act (including with respect to the timely delivery to any applicable NRSRO and to the Depositor of a Form ABS Due Diligence-15E), and (iii) facilitates the Depositor’s compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3)(iii)(E) under the Exchange Act, with respect thereto. The Seller further represents and warrants that no portion of the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report contains, with respect to the information contained therein with respect to the Mortgage Loans, any names, addresses, other personal identifiers or zip codes with respect to any individuals, or any other personally identifiable or other information that would be associated with an individual, including without limitation any “nonpublic personal information” within the meaning of Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. The Underwriters and Initial Purchasers are third-party beneficiaries of the provisions set forth in this Section 6(j).

(k)               The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is not the Purchaser), the related Outside Servicing Agreement contains, or at the time such Outside Servicing Agreement is executed and delivered will contain, terms and provisions (or, to the extent

-21-

specified on Exhibit E to this Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement contains terms and provisions (and, to the extent contained in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the applicable documents provide that such terms and provisions are deemed included by reference into the related Outside Servicing Agreement)) that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement. The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is the Purchaser), the related Co-Lender Agreement does not contain any terms or provisions that conflict with (or that will conflict with) any terms or provisions in the related Outside Servicing Agreement that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement.

SECTION 7        Review of Mortgage File. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Custodian will be required to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and if it finds any document or documents not to have been properly executed, or to be missing or to be defective on its face in any material respect, to notify the Purchaser, which shall promptly notify the Seller.

SECTION 8        Conditions to Closing. The obligation of the Seller to sell the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the Seller having received the consideration for the Mortgage Loans as contemplated by Section 1 of this Agreement. The obligations of the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the satisfaction, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the following conditions:

(a)               Each of the obligations of the Seller required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall have been duly performed and complied with and all of the representations and warranties of the Seller under this Agreement shall, subject to any applicable exceptions set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement, be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date or as of such other date as of which such representation is made under the terms of Exhibit B to this Agreement, and no event shall have occurred as of the Closing Date which would constitute a default on the part of the Seller under this Agreement, and the Purchaser shall have received a certificate to the foregoing effect signed by the Seller substantially in the form of Exhibit D to this Agreement.

(b)               The Pooling and Servicing Agreement (to the extent it affects the obligations of the Seller hereunder), in such form as is agreed upon and acceptable to the Purchaser, the Seller, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and their respective counsel in their reasonable discretion, shall be duly executed and delivered by all signatories as required pursuant to the terms thereof.

(c)               The Purchaser shall have received the following additional closing documents:

-22-

(ii)                       a certificate as of a recent date of the applicable regulatory body or governmental agency to the effect that the Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in the jurisdiction of its formation;

(iii)                    an officer’s certificate of the Seller in form reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and each Rating Agency;

(iv)                    an opinion of counsel of the Seller, subject to customary exceptions and carve-outs, in form reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and each Rating Agency; and

(v)                       a letter from counsel of the Seller substantially to the effect that (a) nothing has come to such counsel’s attention that would lead such counsel to believe that the agreed upon sections of the Preliminary Prospectus (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Offering Circular, any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular or any final Loan-Specific Offering Circular, in each case as of the date thereof or as of the Closing Date (or, in the case of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular or any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular, solely as of the time of sale) contained or contain, as applicable, with respect to the Seller Information, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein relating to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (b) the Seller Information in the Prospectus appears to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of Regulation AB.

(d)                       The Public Certificates shall have been concurrently issued and sold pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.

If applicable, any Loan-Specific Certificates shall have been concurrently issued and sold pursuant to the terms of the related Loan-Specific Certificate Purchase Agreement.

(g)                       An officer of the Seller (other than if such Seller is Bank of Montreal) (i) prior to the delivery of the Preliminary Prospectus to investors, shall have delivered to the Depositor for the benefit of the Chief Executive Officer of the Depositor a sub-certification (the “Preliminary Mortgage Loan Seller Sub-Certification”) to the certification provided by the Chief Executive Officer of the Depositor to the Commission pursuant to the requirements of the Commission’s Form SF-3; and (ii) prior to the delivery of the Prospectus to investors, shall have delivered to the Depositor for the benefit of the Chief Executive Officer of the Depositor a sub-

The Seller shall pay its pro rata share (the Seller’s pro rata portion to be determined according to the percentage that the aggregate principal balance as of the Cut-Off Date of all the Mortgage Loans represents as to the aggregate principal balance as of the Cut-Off Date of all the mortgage loans to be included in the Trust Fund) of all costs and expenses of the Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated herein, including, but not limited to: (i) the costs and expenses of the Purchaser in connection with the purchase of the Mortgage Loans; (ii) the costs and expenses of reproducing and delivering the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and this Agreement and printing (or otherwise reproducing) and delivering the Certificates; (iii) the reasonable and documented fees, costs and expenses of the parties (other than the Purchaser) to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and their respective counsel; (iv) the fees and disbursements of a firm of certified public accountants selected by the Purchaser and the Seller with respect to numerical information in respect of the Mortgage Loans and the Certificates included in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular, the Offering Circular and any related disclosure for the initial Form 8-K, including the cost of obtaining any “comfort letters” with respect to such items; (v) the costs and expenses in connection with the qualification or exemption of the Certificates under state securities or blue sky laws, including filing fees and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection therewith; (vi) the costs and expenses in connection with any determination of the eligibility of the Certificates for investment by institutional investors in any jurisdiction and the preparation of any legal investment survey, including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection therewith; (vii) the costs and expenses in connection with printing (or otherwise reproducing) and delivering the Registration Statement (as such term is defined in the Indemnification Agreement), Preliminary Prospectus, Prospectus, Preliminary Offering Circular and Offering Circular and the reproducing and delivery of this Agreement and the furnishing to the Underwriters of such copies of the Registration Statement, Preliminary Prospectus, Prospectus, Preliminary Offering Circular, Offering Circular and this Agreement as the Underwriters may reasonably request; (viii) the fees of the rating agency or agencies requested to rate the Certificates; (ix) the reasonable fees and expenses of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, as counsel to the Depositor; and (x) the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers.

SECTION 11    Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect

the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 21    No Partnership. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed as creating an agency relationship between the Purchaser and the Seller and neither party shall take any action which could reasonably lead a third party to assume that it has the authority to bind the other party or make commitments on such party’s behalf.

-26-

SECTION 22    Miscellaneous. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

EXHIBIT B

MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

(1) Whole Loan; Ownership of Mortgage Loans. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a Mortgage Loan. Each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is a portion of a whole loan evidenced by a Mortgage Note. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to the Purchaser, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller or, with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the trustee for the related Other Securitization Trust), participation or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. The Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Mortgage Loan, and the assignment to the Purchaser constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Mortgage Loan.

(2) Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Mortgage Loan documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment premium/yield maintenance charges) may be further limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Mortgage Loan documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the Mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Mortgage Loan documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by Seller in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, that would deny the Mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents.

Exhibit B-1

(3) Mortgage Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

(4) Hospitality Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan that is secured by a hospitality property operated pursuant to a franchise agreement includes an executed comfort letter or similar agreement signed by the Mortgagor and franchisor of such property enforceable by the Issuing Entity against such franchisor, either directly or as an assignee of the originator. The Mortgage or related security agreement for each Mortgage Loan secured by a hospitality property creates a security interest in the revenues of such property for which a UCC financing statement has been filed in the appropriate filing office.

(5) Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except by written instruments set forth in the related Mortgage File or as otherwise provided in the related Mortgage Loan documents (a)(1) there has been no forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan which such forbearance, waiver or modification relates to the COVID-19 emergency, (2) as of the Cut-Off Date, to the knowledge of the Seller, after due inquiry, there has been no written request from the related Mortgagor for a forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such request relates to the COVID-19 emergency and (3) other than as related to the COVID-19 emergency, the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Mortgage Loan guaranty and related Mortgage Loan documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the Mortgagor nor the guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the Mortgage Loan. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, except as contained in a written document included in the Mortgage File, there have been no modifications, amendments or waivers, that could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on such Mortgage Loan consented to by the Seller on or after the Cut-Off Date.

(6) Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each endorsement or assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases from the Seller or its affiliate is in recordable form (but for the insertion of the name of the assignee and any related recording information which is not yet available to the Seller) and constitutes a legal, valid and binding endorsement or assignment from the Seller, or its affiliate, as applicable. Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee (or if identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, leasehold) interest in the Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such

Exhibit B-2

Mortgage Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below) and the exceptions to paragraph 7 below (each such exception, a “Title Exception”)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions) as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy (as described below), and as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(7) Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy or a “marked up” commitment, in each case with escrow instructions and binding on the title insurer) (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record specifically identified in the Title Policy; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property; (f) if the related Mortgage Loan constitutes a cross collateralized Mortgage Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for another Mortgage Loan contained in the same cross collateralized group of Mortgage Loans, and (g) condominium declarations of record and identified in such Title Policy, provided that none of clauses (a) through (g), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or principal use of the Mortgaged Property, the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, or the current ability of the related Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). For purposes of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the

Exhibit B-3

date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon. Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the second preceding sentence none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of the Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy. Each Title Policy contains no exclusion for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such affirmative insurance is not available in which case such exclusion may exist), that the Mortgaged Property shown on the survey is the same as the property legally described in the Mortgage.

(8) Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Mortgage Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan, as of the Cut-Off Date there are no subordinate mortgages or junior mortgage liens encumbering the related Mortgaged Property other than Permitted Encumbrances, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (6) above), and equipment and other personal property financing. The Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor other than as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B.

(9) Assignment of Leases and Rents. There exists as part of the related Mortgage File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions (and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, subject to the related Assignment of Leases constituting security for the entire Whole Loan), each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to applicable law and the Standard Qualifications, provides that, upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan, a receiver may be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related Mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the Mortgagee.

(10) Financing Statements. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each Mortgage Loan or related security agreement establishes a valid security interest in, and a UCC-1 financing statement has been filed and/or recorded (or, in the case of fixtures, the Mortgage constitutes a fixture filing) in all places necessary at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan (or, if not filed and/or recorded, has submitted or caused to be submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording) to perfect a valid security interest in, the personal property (creation and perfection of which is governed by the UCC) owned by the

Exhibit B-4

Mortgagor and necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property in its current use other than (1) non-material personal property, (2) personal property subject to purchase money security interests and (3) personal property that is leased equipment. Each UCC-1 financing statement, if any, filed with respect to personal property constituting a part of the related Mortgaged Property and each UCC-3 assignment, if any, filed with respect to such financing statement was in suitable form for filing in the filing office in which such financing statement was filed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(11) Condition of Property. The Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six months of origination of the Mortgage Loan and within twelve months of the Cut-Off Date.

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan no more than twelve months prior to the Cut-Off Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the Closing Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than (i) deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination and (ii) any damage fully covered by insurance) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan.

(12) Taxes and Assessments. As of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, all taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges) due with respect to the Mortgaged Property (excluding any related personal property) securing a Mortgage Loan that is or could become a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that became due and owing prior to the Cut-Off Date with respect to each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or, if the appropriate amount of such taxes or charges is being appealed or is otherwise in dispute, the unpaid taxes or charges are covered by an escrow of funds or other security sufficient to pay such tax or charge and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon.

(13) Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding pending and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the date of origination and as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding threatened for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property.

(14) Actions Concerning Mortgage Loan. To the Seller’s knowledge, based on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7), an engineering report or property condition

Exhibit B-5

assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), as of origination there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Mortgage Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage Loan documents; (f) the current ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service such Mortgage Loan; or (g) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property.

(15) Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and escrow payments currently required to be escrowed with the Mortgagee pursuant to each Mortgage Loan (including capital improvements and environmental remediation reserves) are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no delinquencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required under the related Mortgage Loan documents are being conveyed by the Seller to the depositor or its servicer (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the depositor under the related Outside Servicing Agreement or the related Outside Servicer for the related Other Securitization Trust).

(16) No Holdbacks. The principal amount of the Mortgage Loan stated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule has been fully disbursed as of the Closing Date and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs, occupancy, performance or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by the Seller to merit such holdback).

(17) Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (as defined below), in an amount (subject to customary deductibles) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

Exhibit B-6

“Insurance Ratings Requirements” means either (1) a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” from S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, or (2) the Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements. “Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements” means insurance provided by a syndicate of insurers, as to which (i) if such syndicate consists of 5 or more members, at least 60% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 40% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, and (ii) if such syndicate consists of 4 or fewer members, at least 75% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 25% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with respect to each Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in an amount equal to the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program, plus such additional excess flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders originating mortgage loans for securitization.

If the Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor and included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements.

The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property

Exhibit B-7

damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the probable maximum loss or scenario expected loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the PML would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC in an amount not less than 100% of the PML.

The Mortgage Loan documents require insurance proceeds (or an amount equal to such insurance proceeds) in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, the Mortgagee (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section that are required by the Mortgage Loan documents to be paid as of the Cut-Off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the Mortgagee under the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the trustee (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the Mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by the Seller.

(18) Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Parcels. Based solely on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7) and survey, if any, an engineering report or property condition assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), each Mortgaged

Exhibit B-8

Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has permanent access from a recorded easement or right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and other utilities necessary for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, all of which are adequate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been made or is required to be made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax parcels (or the Mortgage Loan documents so require such application in the future), in which case the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which the Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax parcels are created.

(19) No Encroachments. To the Seller’s knowledge based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the Title Policy obtained in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan, and except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the current marketability or principal use of the Mortgaged Property: (a) all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; (b) no material improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; and (c) no material improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy.

(20) No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Mortgage Loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date) or an equity participation by the Seller.

(21) REMIC. The Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Mortgage Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and (B) either: (a) such Mortgage Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including permanently affixed buildings and structural components, such as wiring, plumbing systems and central heating and air-conditioning systems, that are integrated into such buildings, serve such buildings in their passive functions and do not produce or contribute to the production of income other than consideration for the use or occupancy of space, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Mortgage Loan was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date or (ii) at the Closing

Exhibit B-9

Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Closing Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Mortgage Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Mortgage Loan will not be considered “significantly modified” solely by reason of the borrower having been granted a COVID-19 related forbearance provided that: (a) such Mortgage Loan forbearance is covered by Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12) by reason of satisfying the requirements for such coverage stated in Section 5.02(2) of Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12); and (b) the Seller identifies such Mortgage Loan and provides (x) the date on which such forbearance was granted, (y) the length in months of the forbearance, and (z) how the payments in forbearance will be paid (that is, by extension of maturity, change of amortization schedule, etc.). Any prepayment premiums and yield maintenance charges applicable to the Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph will have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

(22) Compliance with Usury Laws. The mortgage rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) of such Mortgage Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(23) Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Cut-Off Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Mortgage Loan by the Issuing Entity.

(24) Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related Mortgagee.

Exhibit B-10

(25) Local Law Compliance. To the Seller’s knowledge, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, a survey, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan are in material compliance with applicable laws, zoning ordinances, rules, covenants, and restrictions (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) governing the occupancy, use, and operation of such Mortgaged Property or constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure and any non-conformity with zoning laws constitutes a legal non-conforming use or structure which does not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of such Mortgaged Property. In the event of casualty or destruction, (a) the Mortgaged Property may be restored or repaired to the full extent necessary to maintain the use of the structure immediately prior to such casualty or destruction, (b) law and ordinance insurance coverage has been obtained for the Mortgaged Property in amounts customarily required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, (c) title insurance policy coverage has been obtained with respect to any non-conforming use or structure, or (d) the inability to restore the Mortgaged Property to the full extent of the use or structure immediately prior to the casualty would not materially and adversely affect the use or operation of such Mortgaged Property. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

(26) Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents that it will keep all material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals necessary for the operation of the Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the Seller’s knowledge based upon any of a letter from any government authorities, zoning consultant’s report or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization; all such material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals are in effect or the failure to obtain or maintain such material licenses, permits, franchises or certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals does not materially and adversely affect the use and/or operation of the Mortgaged Property as it was used and operated as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan or the rights of a holder of the related Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable regulations, zoning and building laws.

(27) Recourse Obligations. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan (a) provide that such Mortgage Loan becomes full recourse to the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis) in any of the following events (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) if any petition for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation

Exhibit B-11

pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, will be filed by, consented to, or acquiesced in by, the Mortgagor; (ii) the Mortgagor or guarantor will have solicited or caused to be solicited petitioning creditors to cause an involuntary bankruptcy filing with respect to the Mortgagor or (iii) transfers of either the Mortgaged Property or controlling equity interests in the Mortgagor made in violation of the Mortgage Loan documents; and (b) contains provisions for recourse against the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis), for losses and damages resulting from the following (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) the Mortgagor’s misappropriation of rents after an event of default, security deposits, insurance proceeds, or condemnation awards; (ii) the Mortgagor’s fraud or intentional material misrepresentation; (iii) breaches of the environmental covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents; or (iv) the Mortgagor’s commission of intentional material physical waste at the Mortgaged Property (but, in some cases, only to the extent there is sufficient cash flow generated by the related Mortgaged Property to prevent such waste).

(28) Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Mortgage Loan documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial defeasance (as described in paragraph 33), in each case of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance (defined in paragraph 33 below), (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation. With respect to any partial release (including in connection with any partial Defeasance) under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) and (ii) would not cause the subject Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the Mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make

Exhibit B-12

a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions.

In the case of any Mortgage Loan, in the event of a condemnation or taking of any portion of a Mortgaged Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, unless an opinion of counsel is delivered as specified in clause (y) of the preceding paragraph, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, the condemnation proceeds or the award from any such taking may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans).

No such Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross collateralized with another Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties or a portion thereof, including due to a partial condemnation, other than in compliance with the loan-to-value ratio and other requirements of the REMIC Provisions.

(29) Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage Loan with (a) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, (b) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls (or maintenance schedules in the case of Mortgage Loans secured by residential cooperative properties) for properties that have any individual lease which accounts for more than 5% of the in-place base rent, and (c) annual financial statements.

(30) Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Mortgage Loan over $20 million, as of origination the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 and the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015 (collectively referred to as “TRIPRA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the Mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIPRA, or damages related thereto, except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by commercial availability on commercially reasonable terms, or as otherwise indicated on Exhibit C; provided, that if TRIPRA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then,

Exhibit B-13

provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Mortgage Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor will not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Mortgage Loan documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance) at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount.

(31) Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Mortgage Loan contains a “due-on-sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the Mortgagee which are customarily acceptable to the Seller, including, but not limited to, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Mortgage Loan documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold, other than as related to (i) family and estate planning transfers or transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (iii) transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in a Mortgagor, (iv) transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Mortgage Loan documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (v) transfers of common stock in publicly traded companies or (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraphs 28 and 33 herein, or (vii) by reason of any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B, or future permitted mezzanine debt as set forth on Schedule B-2 to this Exhibit B or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan of any Mortgage Loan or any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (ii) purchase money security interests (iii) any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-3 to this Exhibit B or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents provide that to the extent any Rating Agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

(32) Single-Purpose Entity. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Mortgage Loan is outstanding. Each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-Off Date Balance of $30 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-

Exhibit B-14

consolidation of the Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” means an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents and the related Mortgage Loan documents (or if the Mortgage Loan has a Cut-Off Date Balance equal to $10 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Mortgage Loan documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Mortgage Loan documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Mortgage Loan documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with the related Mortgage Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

(33) Defeasance. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that, pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, can be defeased (a “Defeasance”), (i) the Mortgage Loan documents provide for defeasance as a unilateral right of the Mortgagor, subject to satisfaction of conditions specified in the Mortgage Loan documents; (ii) the Mortgage Loan cannot be defeased within two years after the Closing Date; (iii) the Mortgagor is permitted to pledge only United States “government securities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), the revenues from which will, in the case of a full Defeasance, be sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Loan when due, including the entire remaining principal balance on the maturity date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) or, if the Mortgage Loan is an ARD Mortgage Loan, the entire principal balance outstanding on the Anticipated Repayment Date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium), and if the Mortgage Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (A) 110% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and (B) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; (iv) the defeasance collateral is not permitted to be subject to prepayment, call, or early redemption; (v) the Mortgagor is required to provide a certification from an independent certified public accountant that the collateral is sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note as set forth in clause (iii) above; (vi) the defeased note and the defeasance collateral are required to be assumed by a Single-Purpose Entity; (vii) the Mortgagor is required to provide an opinion of counsel that the Trustee has a perfected security interest in such collateral prior to any other claim or interest; and (viii) the Mortgagor is required to pay all rating agency fees associated with defeasance (if rating confirmation is a specific condition precedent thereto) and all other reasonable expenses associated with defeasance, including, but not limited to, accountant’s fees and opinions of counsel.

Exhibit B-15

(34) Fixed Interest Rates. Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except in the case of ARD Mortgage Loans and situations where default interest is imposed.

(35) Ground Leases. For purposes of this Exhibit B, a “Ground Lease” means a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a Ground Leasehold estate in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of the Seller, its successors and assigns (collectively, the “Ground Lease and Related Documents”), the Seller represents and warrants that:

(a) The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease and Related Documents permit the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and do not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage. No material change in the terms of the Ground Lease had occurred since the origination of the Mortgage Loan, except by any written instruments which are included in the related Mortgage File;

(b) The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Mortgage File (or in such Ground Lease and Related Documents) that the Ground Lease may not be amended, modified, canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee;

(c) The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Mortgage Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Mortgage Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

(d) The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any interests, estates, liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions; or (ii) is the subject of a subordination, non-disturbance or attornment agreement or similar agreement to which the Mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest is subject;

Exhibit B-16

(e) Subject to the notice requirements of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, the Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid), and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid);

(f) The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Closing Date;

(g) The Ground Lease and Related Documents require the lessor to give to the Mortgagee written notice of any default, provided that no notice of default or termination is effective against the Mortgagee unless such notice is given to the Mortgagee;

(h) A Mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the Mortgagee’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i) The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by the Seller in connection with the origination of similar commercial or multifamily loans intended for securitization;

(j) Under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest (other than in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in subpart (k)) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents) the Mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest;

Exhibit B-17

(k) In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l) Provided that the Mortgagee cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with the Mortgagee upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

(36) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been, in all respects legal and have met with customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for conduit loan programs.

(37) Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Mortgage Loan and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Exhibit B.

(38) No Material Default; Payment Record. No Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required payments in the prior 12 months (or since origination if such Mortgage Loan has been originated within the past 12 months), and as of Cut-Off Date, no Mortgage Loan is delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Mortgage Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Exhibit B. No person other than the holder of such Mortgage Loan may declare any event of default under the Mortgage Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under the Mortgage Loan documents.

(39) Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, neither the Mortgaged Property (other than any tenants of such Mortgaged Property), nor any portion thereof, is the subject of, and no Mortgagor,

Exhibit B-18

guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

(40) Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan and other than as set forth on Schedule B-4 to this Exhibit B, no Mortgage Loan has a Mortgagor that is an Affiliate of a Mortgagor with respect to another Mortgage Loan. An “Affiliate” for purposes of this paragraph (40) means, a Mortgagor that is under direct or indirect common ownership and control with another Mortgagor.

(41) Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II environmental site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable environmental laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related Mortgagee; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated or contained in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action, completion or closure letter or its equivalent was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than “A-” (or the equivalent) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, Fitch Ratings, Inc. and/or A.M. Best Company; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the

Exhibit B-19

Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

(42) Appraisal. The Servicing File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within 6 months of the Mortgage Loan origination date, and within 12 months of the Cut-Off Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser that (i) is a Member of the Appraisal Institute, and (ii) to the Seller’s knowledge, had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation. Each appraisal contains a statement or is accomplished by a letter from the appraiser, to the effect that the appraisal was performed in accordance with the requirement of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as in effect on the date such Mortgage Loan was originated.

(43) Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Mortgage Loan which is set forth in the mortgage loan schedule attached as an exhibit to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement is true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date and contains all information required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be contained therein.

(44) Cross-Collateralization. No Mortgage Loan is cross collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other mortgage loan that is outside the Mortgage Pool, except in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan.

(45) Advance of Funds by the Seller. Except for loan proceeds advanced at the time of loan origination or other payments contemplated by the Mortgage Loan documents, no advance of funds has been made by the Seller to the related Mortgagor, and no funds have been received from any person other than the related Mortgagor or an affiliate, directly, or, to the knowledge of the Seller, indirectly for, or on account of, payments due on the Mortgage Loan. Neither the Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contribution to any Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan, other than contributions made on or prior to the Closing Date.

(46) Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Seller has complied in all material respects with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Mortgage Loan.

For purposes of this Exhibit B, “Mortgagee” means the mortgagee, grantee or beneficiary under any Mortgage, any holder of legal title to any portion of any Mortgage Loan or, if applicable, any agent or servicer on behalf of such party.

Exhibit B-20

For purposes of this Exhibit B, “Mortgagor” means the obligor or obligors on a Mortgage Note, including without limitation, any person that has acquired the related Mortgaged Property and assumed the obligations of the original obligor under the Mortgage Note and including in connection with any Mortgage Loan that utilizes an indemnity deed of trust structure, the borrower and the Mortgaged Property owner/payment guarantor/mortgagor individually and collectively, as the context may require.

For purposes of this Exhibit B, the phrases “the Seller’s knowledge” or “the Seller’s belief” and other words and phrases of like import mean, except where otherwise expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, the actual state of knowledge or belief of the Seller, its officers and employees directly responsible for the underwriting, origination, servicing or sale of the Mortgage Loans regarding the matters expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, in each case without having conducted any independent inquiry into such matters and without any obligation to have done so (except (i) having sent to the servicers servicing the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Seller, if any, specific inquiries regarding the matters referred to and (ii) as expressly set forth in these representations and warranties). All information contained in documents which are part of or required to be part of a Mortgage File (to the extent such documents exist) will be deemed within the Seller’s knowledge.

(17) Insurance	Casa Cipriani (Loan No. 19)	The Mortgage Loan documents permit a windstorm/named storm deductible equal to up to 5% of the total insurable value of the Mortgaged Property, a water damage deductible up to $500,000 and an excess flood insurance deductible of up to $2,000,000, which such deductibles may not be considered customary.
(17) Insurance	Home2 Suites Pensacola (Loan No. 26)	The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, by a blanket general liability insurance policy of not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate, (on a “per location” basis subject to a $15,000,000 cap) for each policy year, with a maximum deductible or self-insured retention of $100,000 per occurrence, with at least $25,000,000 excess liability/umbrella insurance, or other amount as approved by the Mortgagee, for any and all covered claims. The Mortgage Loan documents provide that, for so long as the general liability policy includes a “per location” aggregate policy cap or should the number of covered locations increase over the current twenty-six (26) locations, or should the exposure on the policy change materially from the exposure on the policy at origination of the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagee reserves the right to amend the insurance requirement annually at renewal of the policy/policies.

(27) Recourse Obligations	Casa Cipriani (Loan No. 19)	The full recourse carveout with respect to voluntary transfers is limited to prohibited transfers under the Mortgage Loan documents (1) other than to the extent the same is a result of (A) the failure of the related Mortgagor parties to deliver a notice of a transfer to the Mortgagee or (B) the related Mortgagor’s entry into an easement that does not have a material adverse effect.
(27) Recourse Obligations	AutoNation (Loan No. 33)	With respect to clause (b)(i) of Representation and Warranty No. 27, the Mortgage Loan documents only provide recourse for the Mortgagor’s intentional misappropriation.  In addition, recourse for misappropriation of security deposits is limited to misappropriation in violation of the express terms of the loan agreement, less only that portion of such security deposits or rents which is actually used by the Mortgagor to operate the Mortgaged Property in the ordinary course of business, except to the extent that the Mortgagor did not have the legal right because of a bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding involving an unaffiliated party to direct disbursement of such funds.

This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of May 1, 2024, is between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as purchaser (the “Purchaser”), and Citi Real Estate Funding Inc., a New York corporation, as seller (the “Seller”).

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Purchaser, as depositor (in such capacity, the “Depositor”), Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and as asset representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”), Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”) and as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), pursuant to which the Purchaser will transfer the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein), together with certain other commercial, multifamily and/or manufactured housing community mortgage loans (collectively, the “Other Loans”), to a trust fund (the “Trust Fund”). In exchange for the Mortgage Loans and the Other Loans, the Trust Fund will issue, to or at the direction of the Depositor, certificates to be known as BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4 (collectively, the “Certificates”), and any Uncertificated Interests (if applicable).

For purposes of this Agreement, “Mortgage Loans” refers to the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (including as reflected in any footnotes to such exhibit) and “Mortgaged Properties” refers to the properties securing such Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller is selling one or more Co-sponsored Mortgage Loans, each such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is identified on Annex A to this Agreement. A “Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan” is (i) part of an entire Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or part of a Whole Loan, (ii) comprised of 2 or more separate Notes being sold to the Purchaser by two or more separate sellers (also referred to as Applicable Co-sponsors) as identified on Annex A to this Agreement, and (iii) if such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is part of a Whole Loan, comprised of the entire portion of such Whole Loan that is being contributed to the Trust (i.e. there may be other Notes evidencing Companion Loans that are not contributed to the Trust). “Applicable Co-sponsor” means, as to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, each seller of the subject Notes to the Purchaser, as identified on Annex A to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, although the term “Mortgage Loan” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Offering Documents means the entire such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, for the purposes of determining any rights or obligations of the Seller and the related Applicable Co-sponsor(s) with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Applicable Co-sponsor’s related mortgage loan purchase agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the term “Mortgage Loan” refers to the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) contributed to the Trust by such Applicable Co-sponsor and such promissory note(s) shall be treated like a separate Mortgage Loan.

     

 

The Purchaser and the Seller wish to prescribe the manner of sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser and in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, agree as follows:

SECTION 1        Sale and Conveyance of Mortgages; Possession of Mortgage File. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, representation or warranty (except as otherwise specifically set forth herein), subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan (other than any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”), including all interest and principal received or receivable on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding payments of principal and interest and other amounts due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-Off Date and excluding any Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loans).

In addition, on the Closing Date, solely in the event the initial Distribution Date occurs in February (except during a leap year) or March, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer (for deposit into the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account) (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Trust Fund the aggregate Initial Interest Deposit Amount with respect to those Mortgage Loans that accrue interest on an Actual/360 Basis, which Initial Interest Deposit Amount for each such Mortgage Loan shall represent an amount equal to (i) if the initial Distribution Date is in February, one day of interest (except during a leap year), and (ii) if the initial Distribution Date is in March, two days of interest (or one day of interest during a leap year), in each case, at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the related Cut-Off Date Balance of each such Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, no Initial Interest Deposit Amount will be due and owing if (i) the initial Distribution Date does not occur in February or March, or (ii) if the initial Distribution Date occurs in February during a leap year.

In addition, on the Closing Date, if one or more Mortgage Loans is identified opposite the Seller’s name on Annex B to this Agreement (which Mortgage Loans do not have a Due Date in the month of the first Distribution Date), the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer or the Certificate Administrator (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), for deposit into the account set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on behalf of the Seller and for the benefit of the Trust Fund, the Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount with respect to each such Mortgage Loan, which Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount shall represent an amount equal to one-month’s interest accrued with respect to each such Mortgage Loan at the related Net Mortgage Rate for the month preceding the month of the first Distribution Date.

Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Note, the Seller’s interest in the related Mortgage represented by the Note and the other contents of the related Mortgage File (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) will be vested in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee, and the ownership of records and documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than those to be held by the holder of any related Companion Loan

  -2-  

 

that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) prepared by or which come into the possession of the Seller shall (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) immediately vest in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee. In connection with the transfer pursuant to this Section 1 of any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, the Seller does hereby assign to the Purchaser all of its rights, title and interest (solely in its capacity as the holder of the subject Mortgage Loan) in, to and under the related Co-Lender Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the Seller does not assign any right, title or interest that it or any other party may have thereunder in its capacity as the holder of any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). The Seller’s assignment of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement.

The Purchaser will sell: (i) the Public Certificates to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Underwriters; (ii) the Private Certificates to the Initial Purchasers (the Initial Purchasers, collectively with the Underwriters, are referred to herein as the “Dealers”) specified in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Initial Purchasers; and (iii) if applicable, any classes of Loan-Specific Certificates pursuant to a related purchase agreement between the Purchaser and any applicable Loan-Specific Initial Purchasers identified therein.

The sale and conveyance of the Mortgage Loans is being conducted on an arms-length basis and upon commercially reasonable terms. As the consideration for the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser shall: (i) pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Seller or at the Seller’s direction that sum set forth in the funding schedule executed by the Seller and the Purchaser relating to the sale of the Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby (but subject to certain post-settlement adjustments for expenses incurred by the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Depositor and for which the Seller is specifically responsible); and (ii) if the Seller is listed on Annex C to this Agreement, cause any Uncertificated Interests or Class VRR Certificates identified on Annex C hereto opposite the Seller’s name to be registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in the name of the Seller.

The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2        Books and Records; Certain Funds Received After the Cut-Off Date. From and after the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, record title to each Mortgage (other than with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Note shall be transferred to the Trustee subject to and in accordance with this Agreement. Any funds due after the Cut-Off Date in connection with a Mortgage Loan received by the Seller shall be held in trust on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders) as the owner of such Mortgage Loan and shall be transferred promptly to the Certificate Administrator. All scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date but collected after the Cut-Off Date, and all recoveries and payments of principal and interest collected on or before the Cut-Off Date (only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-Off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall belong to, and shall be promptly remitted to, the Seller.

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Seller’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the sale of such Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser. The Seller intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser as a sale for tax purposes. Following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser, the Seller shall not take any actions inconsistent with the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser and its assignees.

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Purchaser’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the purchase of such Mortgage Loan by the Purchaser from the Seller. The Purchaser intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the Seller as a purchase for tax purposes. The Purchaser shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a set of records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the transfer of ownership of each Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Seller will receive the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 3        Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Additional Costs and Expenses. (a) The Purchaser hereby directs the Seller, and the Seller hereby agrees, such agreement effective upon the transfer of the Mortgage Loans as contemplated herein, to deliver to and deposit with (or to cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Custodian (on behalf of the Trustee), with copies (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to be delivered to the Master Servicer, on the dates set forth in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered by the Purchaser, or contemplated to be delivered by the Seller (whether at the direction of the Purchaser or otherwise), to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, with respect to the Mortgage Loans under Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and meeting all the requirements of such Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

With respect to letters of credit (exclusive of those relating to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer, and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall require the Master Servicer to hold, the original (or copy, if such original has been submitted by the Seller to the issuing bank to effect an assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer) for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, to the extent required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents)) and the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied any such delivery requirements by delivering with respect to any letter(s) of credit a copy thereof to the Custodian together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller certifying that such document has been delivered to the Master Servicer or an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that it holds the letter(s) of credit pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If a letter of credit

  -4-  

 

referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents, the Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Master Servicer within 90 days of the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(b)               Except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall deliver to and deposit with (or cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date: (i) a copy of the Mortgage File; (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan(s), (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any related asset summaries that were delivered to the Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Certificates, material notices related to tenant leases, and any related operating statements, financial statements, appraisals or similar reports) or any related Serviced Companion Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans or holders of interests therein, and (C) are in the possession or under the control of the Seller; and (iii) all unapplied Escrow Payments and reserve funds in the possession or under control of the Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans together with a statement indicating which Escrow Payments and reserve funds are allocable to each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3(b) shall not apply to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by any Mortgaged Property that is subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any such related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Seller or its designee shall, within 45 days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor for the transfer or assignment of such comfort letter or issuance of a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), with a copy of such notice or request to the Custodian (who shall include such document

  -5-  

 

in the related Mortgage File) and the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, deliver the original of such replacement comfort letter, new document or acknowledgement, as applicable, to the Custodian for inclusion in the Mortgage File.

With respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver the remaining portion of the related Mortgage File or any remaining document required to be delivered with respect thereto shall be joint and several, provided that any one of the Applicable Co-sponsors may deliver one Mortgage File (exclusive of the related Mortgage Notes) or one of any other remaining document required to be delivered with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan hereunder and under the mortgage loan purchase agreement(s) between the Purchaser and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s), and such delivery shall satisfy the corresponding delivery requirements for both the Seller and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s).

(e)               Upon written request from the Special Servicer, the Seller shall deliver a power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement to the Special Servicer, that permits the Special Servicer to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement actions by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 4        Treatment as a Security Agreement. Pursuant to Section 1 hereof, the Seller has conveyed to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the parties also intend and agree that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and in such event does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal or interest on such Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-Off Date, all other payments made in respect of such Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date) and all proceeds thereof, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser hypothecating and transferring such security interest in favor of the Trustee and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Trustee.

SECTION 5        Covenants of the Seller. The Seller covenants with the Purchaser as follows:

(a)               with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), it shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file, in

All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the recordation or filing of such assignments of Assignment of Leases, assignments of Mortgage and financing statements shall be paid by (or caused to be paid by) the Seller. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and the Seller shall record or file, or cause the recording or filing of, such substitute or corrected document or instrument, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to such third party (or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan);

(b)               as to each Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the Seller cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, it shall forward to the Custodian a copy of the original certified by the Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording. The Seller shall cause each assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above to reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the Seller or its designee, in which case the Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof;

(c)               except for actions that are the express responsibility of another party hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer, including effectuating the transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and any Serviced Companion Loan Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(c) shall not apply with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan;

(d)               the Seller shall provide the Master Servicer the initial data with respect to each Mortgage Loan for the CREFC^® Financial File and the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File that are required to be prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

  -7-  

 

(e)               if (during the period of time that the Underwriters are required, under applicable law, to deliver a prospectus related to the Public Certificates in connection with sales of the Public Certificates by an Underwriter or a dealer) the Seller has obtained actual knowledge of undisclosed or corrected information related to an event that occurred prior to the Closing Date, which event causes there to be an untrue statement of a material fact with respect to the Seller Information (as such term is defined in the Indemnification Agreement) in the Prospectus, the Offering Circular or any Loan-Specific Offering Circular (the Prospectus, the Offering Circular and any Loan-Specific Offering Circular are collectively referred to herein as the “Offering Documents”), or causes there to be an omission to state therein a material fact with respect to the Seller Information required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein with respect to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Seller shall promptly notify the Dealers and the Depositor. If as a result of any such event the Dealers’ legal counsel determines that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Documents in order to correct the untrue statement, or to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or to make the Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to the Seller Information) at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Dealers, such amendments or supplements to the Offering Documents as may be necessary so that the Seller Information in the Offering Documents, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law. (All capitalized terms used in this Section 5(e) and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date for the Certificates, between, among others, the Dealers, the Seller and the Depositor (the “Indemnification Agreement” and, together with this Agreement, the “Operative Documents”).) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall have no affirmative obligation to monitor the performance of the Mortgage Loans or any changes in condition or circumstance of any Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor, guarantor or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date in connection with its obligations under this Section 5(e);

(f)                for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Seller shall: (1) provide the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and any Form 8-K Disclosure Information for which the Seller is responsible as indicated on Exhibit U, Exhibit V and Exhibit Z to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that, in connection with providing Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and the Seller’s reporting obligations under Item 1119 of Regulation AB, upon reasonable request by the Seller, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a list of all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any other Servicing Function Participant; and (2) reasonably cooperate with each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, upon the reasonable request of such party, by providing all Mortgage Loan related documents, data and information in the possession of the Seller at or prior to the Closing Date and on the date of such request and necessary for the ongoing compliance by the Depositor and the Trust with the requirements of Form 10-D with respect to Items 1111 and 1125 of Regulation AB; provided, that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the

(h)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Depositor (with a copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) with a certification by an authorized officer of the Seller, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, that the electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan uploaded to the Designated Site contains all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor, which such certification or copies thereof may be sent via email;

(i)                 upon written request of the Asset Representations Reviewer (in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for a Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan), the Seller shall provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written request (which time period may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the Seller and the Asset Representations Reviewer), such documents requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer and in the possession of the Seller relating to each such Delinquent Loan to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete any Test for each such Delinquent Loan, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

  -9-  

 

from receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report. If the Seller elects to refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report, the Seller shall provide to the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test;

(l)                 the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event an Enforcing Party elects a dispute resolution method pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Seller shall abide by the selected dispute resolution method and otherwise comply with the terms and provisions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) related to the resolution method;

(iv)                          There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against the Purchaser in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of this Agreement or any action taken in connection with the obligations of the Purchaser contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the Purchaser to perform under the terms of this Agreement;

(v)                             The Purchaser is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Purchaser or its properties or might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

(vi)                         No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of, or compliance by the Purchaser with, this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than those that have been obtained by the Purchaser; and

(vii)                      The Purchaser has (i) prepared a report on Form ABS-15G under the Exchange Act (the “Form 15G”) that attaches the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report (as defined herein) (a final draft of which Form 15G was provided to the Seller at least 5 business days before the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates); and (ii) furnished the Form 15G to the Commission (as defined herein) on EDGAR at least 5 business days before the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates as required by Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act.

(c)               The Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to the Mortgage Loans (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) set forth on Exhibit B to this Agreement as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit B to this Agreement, which representations and warranties are subject to the exceptions thereto set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement. If the Seller’s Mortgage Loans contain a related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, then such Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to such related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan set forth on Exhibit I to this Agreement (if any) as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit I to this Agreement.

(d)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, if (i) any party thereto (other than the Asset Representations Reviewer) discovers or receives notice alleging that any document required to be included in a Mortgage File by (or on behalf of) the Seller has not been properly executed, is missing, contains information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or does not appear to be regular on its face (each, a “Document Defect”), or discovers or receives notice alleging a breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller made pursuant to Section 6(c) of this Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan (a “Breach”) or (ii) the Special Servicer or the

  -13-  

 

Purchaser receives a Repurchase Request, then such party is required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller.

(e)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Enforcing Servicer is required to determine whether any such Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan materially and adversely affects, or such Document Defect is deemed in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to materially and adversely affect, the value of the Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or the interests of the Trustee or any Certificateholder in the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or causes any Mortgage Loan to fail to be a Qualified Mortgage (any such Document Defect shall constitute a “Material Document Defect” and any such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach”; and a Material Breach and/or a Material Document Defect, as the case may be, shall constitute a “Material Defect”). If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect, then the Enforcing Servicer will be required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller, demanding that the Seller cure such Material Defect. Promptly upon becoming aware of any such Material Defect (including, without limitation, through a written notice given by any party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as provided above if the Document Defect or Breach identified therein is a Material Defect), the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the Seller’s (x) discovery of, and (y) receipt of notice of and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to such Material Defect (or, in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days from any party discovering such Material Defect), cure the same in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of any losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses associated therewith (including, if applicable, the amount of any fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer payable pursuant to Section 5(j) above attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan)) or, if such Material Defect cannot be cured within such 90-day period, the Seller shall (before the end of such 90-day period) either: (i) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property (or the Trust Fund’s interest therein) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account; or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date and in no event shall any such substitution be effected with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) and pay the Master Servicer, for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith; provided, that the Seller may not repurchase any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan without repurchasing its Mortgage Loan that is part of the same Whole Loan (so long as there is a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan); and provided, further, however, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such 90-day period, then the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure (or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as described above) it being understood and agreed that, in connection with the Seller’s receiving such additional 90-day period, the Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day period and what actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the Seller anticipates that such Material Defect

  -14-  

 

will be cured within such additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the initial 90-day period and any such additional 90-day period solely due to the failure of the Seller to have received the recorded document, then the Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect so long as the Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator every 30 days thereafter that the Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date. Any such repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. The Seller shall have no obligation to monitor the Mortgage Loans regarding the existence of a Breach or a Document Defect, but if the Seller discovers a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, it will notify the Purchaser. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-Off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and shall be required, under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller promptly following receipt. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. No mortgage loan may be substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Section 6(e) if the Mortgage Loan to be replaced was itself a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that had replaced a prior Mortgage Loan, in which case, absent a cure (including by the making of a Loss of Value Payment pursuant to the following paragraph) of the relevant Material Defect, the affected Mortgage Loan will be required to be repurchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), in lieu of the Seller performing its obligations with respect to any Material Defect as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to the extent that the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer (subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder or, in the case of any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative so long as it is the applicable Directing Holder) as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, are able to agree upon a cash payment payable by the Seller to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, that would be deemed sufficient to compensate the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, for a Material Defect (a “Loss of Value Payment”), the Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such Loss of Value Payment to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable; provided that a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage, may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment; and provided, further, that the Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Loss of Value Payment relates to a Co-sponsored

  -15-  

 

Mortgage Loan, the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement). Upon its making a Loss of Value Payment, the Seller shall be deemed to have cured the subject Material Defect in all respects. Provided that such Loss of Value Payment is made, this paragraph describes the sole remedy available to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, and its assignees regarding any such Material Defect, and the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase or replace the affected Mortgage Loan or otherwise cure such Material Defect. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, provided that, prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Seller or the Enforcing Servicer, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and within the time frames set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this Section 6(e) (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan).

If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as described above (a “Defective Mortgage Loan”), (y) such Defective Mortgage Loan is part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and (z) the applicable Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Material Defect as to the other Mortgage Loan(s) that are a part of such Cross-Collateralized Group (the “Other Crossed Loans”) (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Document Defect or Breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to each such Other Crossed Loan for purposes of the above provisions, and the Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such Other Crossed Loan in accordance with the provisions above unless, in the case of such Breach or Document Defect, as applicable:

(A) the Seller (at its expense) delivers or causes to be delivered to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Seller’s repurchase or replacement of only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Defect has actually occurred without regard to the provisions of this paragraph (the “Affected Loan(s)”) and the operation of the remaining provisions of this Section 6(e) (i) will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Certificate is outstanding and (ii) will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code); and

(B)  each of the following conditions would be satisfied if the Seller were to repurchase or replace only the Affected Loans and not the Other Crossed Loans:

(1)   the debt service coverage ratio for such Other Crossed Loan(s) (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not less than the lesser of (A) 0.10x below the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus and (B) the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-

  -16-  

 

Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) for the four preceding calendar quarters preceding the repurchase or replacement;

(2)   the loan-to-value ratio for the Other Crossed Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the greatest of (A) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus plus 10%, (B) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) at the time of repurchase or replacement and (C) 75%; and

(3)   either (x) the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group will not impair the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group or (y) the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans have been modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that removes any threat of impairment of the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group as a result of the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group.

The determination of the Enforcing Servicer as to whether the conditions set forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error on the Certificateholders, other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Seller. The Enforcing Servicer will be entitled to cause to be delivered, or direct the Seller to (in which case the Seller shall) cause to be delivered, to the Enforcing Servicer an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause (B)(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the Seller if the scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the Seller and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in each case).

With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan that forms a part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and as to which the conditions described in the second preceding paragraph are satisfied, such that the Trust Fund will continue to hold the Other Crossed Loans, the Seller and the Depositor agree to forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each is permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan(s) still held by the Trust Fund. If the exercise of remedies by one such party would impair the ability of the other such party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan or the Other Crossed Loans, as the case may be, held by the other such party, then both parties shall forbear from exercising such remedies unless and until the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans can be modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment as a result of the

  -17-  

 

exercise of remedies. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing any of the Mortgage Loans that form a Cross-Collateralized Group shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Loan Documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. All other terms of the Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect, without any modification thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall be binding on all future holders of each Mortgage Loan that forms part of a Cross-Collateralized Group.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that, to the extent necessary and appropriate, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will execute (pursuant to a limited power of attorney provided by the Trustee who will not be liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any of its agents or subcontractors) the modification of the Loan Documents that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment of the ability of the Seller or the Trust Fund to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loan(s) held by such party resulting from the exercise of remedies by the other such party. All costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer with respect to any Cross-Collateralized Group pursuant to this paragraph and the first, second and third preceding paragraphs shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as provided for in Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and such advances and interest thereon shall be included in the calculation of Purchase Price for the Affected Loan(s) to be repurchased or replaced.

Subject to the Seller’s right to cure set forth above in this Section 6(e), and further subject to Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, failure of the Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8) and (18) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except such deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

If there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties securing a Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase such Mortgage Loan if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property(ies) are, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the related Loan Documents and the Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such

  -18-  

 

release would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

With respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees that if a “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) exists under the related Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan included in the related Outside Securitization Trust, and such Outside Serviced Companion Loan is repurchased by or on behalf of such Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) from the related Outside Securitization Trust as a result of such “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in such Outside Servicing Agreement), then the Seller shall repurchase such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) related solely to the promissory note for such Outside Serviced Companion Loan.

(f)                In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or more Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the repurchasing entity evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File (including, without limitation, the Servicing File) and other documents and all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the repurchasing or substituting entity or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and reconveyance of the Mortgage Loan and the security therefor to the Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. In the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan by the Seller as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian the related Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of any deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) and deliver or cause the delivery of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Upon any substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall become part of the Trust Fund and be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

  -19-  

 

(g)               The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Notes or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files.

(h)               Each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other party upon discovery of any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement. The Seller’s obligation to cure any Material Defect or to repurchase, or substitute for, or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to, any affected Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a breach of any of the Seller’s representations or warranties contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement or a Document Defect with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(i)                 The Seller shall promptly notify the Depositor if (i) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request (other than from the Depositor), (ii) the Seller repurchases or replaces a Mortgage Loan, (iii) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal (other than from the Depositor) or (iv) the Seller rejects or disputes any Repurchase Request. Each such notice shall be given no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after (A) with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding sentence, receipt of a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, as applicable, and (B) with respect to clauses (ii) and (iv) of the preceding sentence, the occurrence of the event giving rise to the requirement for such notice, and shall include (1) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan and the person making the Repurchase Request, (2) the date (x) such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal was received, (y) the related Mortgage Loan was repurchased or replaced or (z) the Repurchase Request was rejected or disputed, as applicable, and (3) if known, the basis for (x) the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) or (y) any rejection or dispute of a Repurchase Request, as applicable.

The Seller shall provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator the Seller’s “Central Index Key” number assigned by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and a true, correct and complete copy of the relevant portions of any Form ABS-15G that the Seller is required to file with the Commission under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Mortgage Loans, on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days before the date such Form ABS-15G is required to be filed with the Commission.

In addition, the Seller shall provide the Depositor, upon request, such other information in its possession as would permit the Depositor to comply with its obligations under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act to disclose fulfilled and unfulfilled repurchase requests. Any such information requested shall be provided as promptly as practicable after such request is made.

The Seller agrees that no Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider will be required to provide information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice that is protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. In addition, the Seller hereby acknowledges that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is so provided only to assist the Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law

  -20-  

 

or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to this Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.

Each party hereto agrees that the receipt of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice or the delivery of any notice required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6(i) shall not, in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of, receipt of notice of, or knowledge of the Seller of, any Material Defect.

Each party hereto agrees and acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, the “Central Index Key” number of the Trust Fund is 0002016125.

“Repurchase Communication” means, for purposes of this Section 6(i) only, any communication, whether oral or written, which need not be in any specific form.

(j)                 The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that it and the Purchaser have engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ernst & Young LLP (the “Accounting Firms”) to perform “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans and to prepare one or more “third-party due diligence reports” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act) (collectively, the “Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report”) in connection therewith. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Depositor that, except with respect to the Accounting Firms and the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report, the Seller, as of the Closing Date, (A) has not obtained any “third-party due diligence report” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act), and (B) has not retained any third party to engage in, and will not retain any third party to engage in, any activity that constitutes “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans, unless, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (B) and following the Closing Date, the Seller (i) provides prior written notice to the Depositor, (ii) requires the third-party due diligence provider to comply with its obligations under Section 15E(s)(4)(B) of, and Rule 17g-10 under, the Exchange Act (including with respect to the timely delivery to any applicable NRSRO and to the Depositor of a Form ABS Due Diligence-15E), and (iii) facilitates the Depositor’s compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3)(iii)(E) under the Exchange Act, with respect thereto. The Seller further represents and warrants that no portion of the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report contains, with respect to the information contained therein with respect to the Mortgage Loans, any names, addresses, other personal identifiers or zip codes with respect to any individuals, or any other personally identifiable or other information that would be associated with an individual, including without limitation any “nonpublic personal information” within the meaning of Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. The Underwriters and Initial Purchasers are third-party beneficiaries of the provisions set forth in this Section 6(j).

(k)               The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is not the Purchaser), the related Outside Servicing Agreement contains, or at the time such Outside Servicing Agreement is executed and delivered will contain, terms and provisions (or, to the extent

  -21-  

 

specified on Exhibit E to this Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement contains terms and provisions (and, to the extent contained in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the applicable documents provide that such terms and provisions are deemed included by reference into the related Outside Servicing Agreement)) that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement. The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is the Purchaser), the related Co-Lender Agreement does not contain any terms or provisions that conflict with (or that will conflict with) any terms or provisions in the related Outside Servicing Agreement that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement.

SECTION 7        Review of Mortgage File. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Custodian will be required to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and if it finds any document or documents not to have been properly executed, or to be missing or to be defective on its face in any material respect, to notify the Purchaser, which shall promptly notify the Seller.

SECTION 8              Conditions to Closing.

SECTION 20     Exercise of Rights.

  -26-  

 

SECTION 22    Miscellaneous. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

(a)               In the event a Covered Party (as defined below) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime (as defined below), the transfer of this Agreement (and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, this Agreement) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement (and any interest and obligation in or under, and any property securing, this Agreement) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b)               In the event that a Covered Party or any BHC Affiliate (as defined below) of such Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights (as defined below) with respect to this Agreement that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(c)               For the purposes of this Section 24, the following definitions apply:

EXHIBIT B

MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

(1) Whole Loan; Ownership of Mortgage Loans. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a Mortgage Loan. Each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is a portion of a whole loan evidenced by a Mortgage Note. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to the Purchaser, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller or, with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the trustee for the related Other Securitization Trust), participation or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. The Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Mortgage Loan, and the assignment to the Purchaser constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Mortgage Loan.

(2) Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Loan Documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment/yield maintenance fees, charges and/or premiums) are, or may be, further limited or rendered unenforceable by or under applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Loan Documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentences, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by the Seller in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, that would deny the mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Loan Documents.

Exhibit B-1

(3) Mortgage Provisions. The Loan Documents for each Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

(4) Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except by written instruments set forth in the related Mortgage File or as otherwise provided in the related Loan Documents (a)(1) there has been no forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such forbearance, waiver or modification relates to the COVID-19 emergency, (2) as of the Cut-Off Date, to the knowledge of the Seller, there has been no written request from the related Mortgagor for a forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such request relates to the COVID-19 emergency and (3) other than as related to the COVID-19 emergency, the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Mortgage Loan guaranty and related Loan Documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the related Mortgagor nor the related guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the Mortgage Loan. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, except as contained in a written document included in the related Mortgage File, there have been no modifications, amendments or waivers that could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on such Mortgage Loan that have been consented to by the Seller on or after the Cut-Off Date.

(5) Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases to the Trust (or, with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Outside Trustee) constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment to the Trust (or, with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee or leasehold interest in the Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such Mortgage Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below) and the exceptions to paragraph (6) set forth on Exhibit C (each such exception, a “Title Exception”)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to and excepting Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions) as of origination was, and as of the Cut-Off Date, to the Seller’s knowledge, is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ liens, recorded materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances which are prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below), and, to the Seller’s knowledge and subject to

Exhibit B-2

the rights of tenants (as tenants only)(subject to and excepting Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions), no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) financing statements is required in order to effect such perfection.

(6) Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy with escrow instructions or a “marked up” commitment, in each case binding on the title insurer)(the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property and condominium declarations; and (f) if the related Mortgage Loan is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan (each a “Crossed Mortgage Loan”), the lien of the Mortgage for such other Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with such Crossed Mortgage Loan, provided that none of which items (a) through (f), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or current use of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). For purposes of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon. Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the second preceding sentence, none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of the Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy.

Exhibit B-3

(7) Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Mortgage Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Crossed Mortgage Loan, there are, as of origination, and to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, no subordinate mortgages or junior liens securing the payment of money encumbering the related Mortgaged Property (other than Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions, taxes and assessments, mechanics and materialmen’s liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (5) above), and equipment and other personal property financing). Except as set forth on Schedule B-1, the Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor.

(8) Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits. There exists as part of the related Mortgage File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions (and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, subject to the related Assignment of Leases constituting security for the entire Whole Loan), each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to applicable law, provides that, upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan, a receiver is permitted to be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the mortgagee.

(9) UCC Filings. If the related Mortgaged Property is operated as a hospitality property, the Seller has filed and/or recorded or caused to be filed and/or recorded (or, if not filed and/or recorded, have been submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording), UCC financing statements in the appropriate public filing and/or recording offices necessary at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan to perfect a valid security interest in all items of physical personal property reasonably necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property owned by such Mortgagor and located on the related Mortgaged Property (other than any non-material personal property, any personal property subject to a purchase money security interest, a sale and leaseback financing arrangement as permitted under the terms of the related Loan Documents or any other personal property leases applicable to such personal property), to the extent perfection may be effected pursuant to applicable law by recording or filing, as the case may be. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each related Mortgage (or equivalent document) creates a valid and enforceable lien and security interest on the items of personalty described above. No representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of UCC financing statements are required in order to effect such perfection.

(10) Condition of Property. The Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six months of origination of the Mortgage Loan and within twelve months of the Cut-Off Date.

Exhibit B-4

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan no more than twelve months prior to the Cut-Off Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the Closing Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than (i) any damage or deficiency that is estimated to cost less than $50,000 to repair, (ii) any deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination and (iii) any damage fully covered by insurance) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan.

(11) Taxes and Assessments. All taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges), or installments thereof, that could be a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that would be of equal or superior priority to the lien of the Mortgage and that prior to the Cut-Off Date have become delinquent in respect of each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to cover such payments and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real estate taxes and governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges and installments thereof shall not be considered delinquent until the earlier of (a) the date on which interest and/or penalties would first be payable thereon and (b) the date on which enforcement action is entitled to be taken by the related taxing authority.

(12) Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding pending, and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the date of origination and as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding threatened, for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property.

(13) Actions Concerning Mortgage Loan. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Mortgage Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Loan Documents or (f) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property.

(14) Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and payments required to be escrowed with the lender pursuant to each Mortgage Loan are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no deficiencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required to be escrowed with lender under the related Loan Documents are being conveyed by the Seller to the Purchaser or its servicer (or, with respect to any Outside

Exhibit B-5

Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the Purchaser or servicer for the related Other Securitization Trust).

(15) No Holdbacks. The Stated Principal Balance as of the Cut-Off Date of the Mortgage Loan set forth on the mortgage loan schedule attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement has been fully disbursed as of the Closing Date and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by the Seller to merit such holdback).

(16) Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer or insurers meeting the requirements of the related Loan Documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (as defined below), in an amount (subject to a customary deductible) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor and included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

“Insurance Rating Requirements” means either (i) a claims paying or financial strength rating of any of the following; (a) at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company, (b) at least “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or (c) at least “A-” from S&P Global Ratings or (ii) the Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements. “Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements” means insurance provided by a syndicate of insurers, as to which (1) if such syndicate consists of 5 or more members, at least 60% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Rating Requirements (under clause (i) of the definition of such term) and up to 40% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings or at least “Baa3” by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., and (2) if such syndicate consists of 4 or fewer members, at least 75% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Rating Requirements (under clause (i) of the definition of such term) and up to 25% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings or at least “Baa3” by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Loan Documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with

Exhibit B-6

respect to each Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program, plus such additional excess flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by the Seller originating mortgage loans for securitization.

If the Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) 100% of the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements and personalty and fixtures owned by the Mortgagor and included in the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer or insurers meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements.

The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Loan Documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer or insurers meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for loans originated for securitization, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the structural and seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing either the scenario expected limit (“SEL”) or the probable maximum loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the SEL or PML, as applicable, was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the SEL or PML, as applicable, would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer or insurers meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (provided that for this purpose (only), the A.M. Best Company minimum rating referred to in the definition of Insurance Rating Requirements will be deemed to be at least “A:VIII”) in an amount not less than 100% of the SEL or PML, as applicable.

The Loan Documents require insurance proceeds in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then outstanding principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan (or Whole Loan, if applicable), the lender (or a trustee appointed

Exhibit B-7

by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan (or Whole Loan, if applicable) together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section required to be paid as of the Cut-Off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the lender under the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the Trustee (or, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Other Trustee). Each related Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain, or cause to be maintained, all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the lender to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the lender of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days prior notice to the lender of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by the Seller.

(17) Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Lots. Each Mortgaged Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has access via an irrevocable easement or irrevocable right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has uninhibited access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and all required utilities, all of which are appropriate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been, or will be, made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax lots, in which case the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which the Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax lots are created.

(18) No Encroachments. To the Seller’s knowledge based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the lender’s Title Policy (or, if such policy is not yet issued, a pro forma title policy, a preliminary title policy with escrow instructions or a “marked up” commitment) obtained in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan, all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy. No improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy. No improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments

Exhibit B-8

the removal of which would not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements obtained with respect to the Title Policy.

(19) No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Mortgage Loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date) or an equity participation by the Seller.

(20) REMIC. The Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Mortgage Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and (B) either: (a) such Mortgage Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including permanently affixed buildings and structural components, such as wiring, plumbing systems and central heating and air-conditioning systems, that are integrated into such buildings, serve such buildings in their passive functions and do not produce or contribute to the production of income other than consideration for the use or occupancy of space, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan) was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan) on such date or (ii) at the Closing Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan) on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Closing Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Mortgage Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Mortgage Loan will not be considered “significantly modified” solely by reason of the borrower having been granted a COVID-19 related forbearance provided that: (a) such Mortgage Loan forbearance is covered by Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12) by reason of satisfying the requirements for such coverage stated in Section 5.02(2) of Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12); and (b) the Seller identifies such Mortgage Loan and provides (x) the date on which such forbearance was granted, (y) the length in months of the forbearance, and (z) how the payments in forbearance will be paid (that is, by extension of maturity, change of amortization schedule, etc.). Any prepayment premium and yield maintenance charges

Exhibit B-9

applicable to the Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph shall have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

(21) Compliance with Usury Laws. The Mortgage Rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge, or prepayment premiums) of such Mortgage Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(22) Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Cut-Off Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Mortgage Loan by the Trust.

(23) Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related mortgagee.

(24) Local Law Compliance. To the Seller’s knowledge, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial, multifamily or, if applicable, manufactured housing community mortgage loans intended for securitization, with respect to the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan as of the date of origination of such Mortgage Loan and as of the Cut-Off Date, there are no material violations of applicable zoning ordinances, building codes and land laws (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) other than those which (i) constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure, as to which as the Mortgaged Property may be restored or repaired to the full extent necessary to maintain the use of the structure immediately prior to a casualty or the inability to restore or repair to the full extent necessary to maintain the use or structure immediately prior to the casualty would not materially and adversely affect the use or operation of the Mortgaged Property, (ii) are insured by the Title Policy or other insurance policy, (iii) are insured by law and ordinance insurance coverage in amounts customarily required by the Seller for loans originated for securitization that provides coverage for additional costs to rebuild and/or repair the property to current Zoning Regulations or (iv) would not have a material adverse effect on the Mortgage Loan. The terms of the Loan Documents require the Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable governmental regulations, zoning and building laws.

(25) Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Loan Documents that it shall keep all material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations necessary for its

Exhibit B-10

operation of the Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the Seller’s knowledge based upon a letter from any government authorities, zoning consultant’s report or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial, multifamily or, if applicable, manufactured housing community mortgage loans intended for securitization, all such material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations are in effect. The Mortgage Loan requires the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

(26) Recourse Obligations. The Loan Documents for each Mortgage Loan provide that (a) the related Mortgagor and at least one individual or entity shall be fully liable for actual losses, liabilities, costs and damages arising from certain acts of the related Mortgagor and/or its principals specified in the related Loan Documents, which acts generally include the following: (i) acts of fraud or intentional material misrepresentation, (ii) misapplication or misappropriation of rents (if after an event of default under the Mortgage Loan), insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, (iii) intentional material physical waste of the Mortgaged Property (but, in some cases, only to the extent there is sufficient cash flow generated by the related Mortgaged Property to prevent such waste), and (iv) any breach of the environmental covenants contained in the related Loan Documents, and (b) the Mortgage Loan shall become full recourse to the related Mortgagor and at least one individual or entity, if the related Mortgagor files a voluntary petition under federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law.

(27) Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Loan Documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial Defeasance (as defined in paragraph (32)), in each case, of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance (as defined in paragraph (32)), (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation or taking by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof. With respect to any partial release (including in connection with any partial Defeasance) under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations and (ii) would not cause the subject Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(3)(A); or (y) the mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Loan Documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged

Exhibit B-11

Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (or Whole Loan, as applicable) outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions.

In the case of any Mortgage Loan, in the event of a condemnation or taking of any portion of a Mortgaged Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, condemnation proceeds may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (or Whole Loan, as applicable).

No Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is a Crossed Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties or a portion thereof, including due to a partial condemnation, other than in compliance with the loan-to-value ratio and other requirements of the REMIC Provisions.

(28) Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage with quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, and quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls for properties that have leases contributing more than 5% of the in-place base rent and annual financial statements.

(29) Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Mortgage Loan over $20 million, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2019 (collectively referred to as “TRIA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each other Mortgage Loan, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) did not, as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, and, to the Seller’s knowledge, do not, as of the Cut-Off Date, specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related Loan Documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the

Exhibit B-12

mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, or damages related thereto except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by commercial availability on commercially reasonable terms, or as otherwise indicated on Exhibit C; provided, however, that if TRIA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then, provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Mortgage Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor shall not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Loan Documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance) at such time, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount.

(30) Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Mortgage Loan contains a “due on sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Loan Documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the lender which are customarily acceptable to the Seller lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Loan Documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold (in each case, a “Transfer”), other than as related to (i) family and estate planning Transfers or Transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) Transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Loan Documents, (iii) Transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in the related Mortgagor, (iv) Transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Loan Documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Loan Documents, such as a qualified equityholder, (v) Transfers of stock or similar equity units in publicly traded companies, (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraphs (27) and (32) herein or the exceptions thereto set forth on Exhibit C, or (vii) by reason of any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-1, or future permitted mezzanine debt as set forth on Schedule B-2 or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan or any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the related Loan Documents, (ii) purchase money security interests, (iii) any Crossed Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-3 or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Loan Documents provide that to the extent any Rating Agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

Exhibit B-13

(31) Single-Purpose Entity. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Mortgage Loan is outstanding. Both the Loan Documents and the organizational documents of the Mortgagor with respect to each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-Off Date Balance in excess of $5 million provide that the Mortgagor is a Single-Purpose Entity, and each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-Off Date Balance of $20 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-consolidation of the Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” shall mean an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents (or if the Mortgage Loan has a Cut-Off Date Balance equal to $5 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Loan Documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties securing the Mortgage Loans and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Loan Documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Loan Documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Crossed Mortgage Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

(32) Defeasance. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that, pursuant to the Loan Documents, can be defeased (a “Defeasance”), (i) the Loan Documents provide for Defeasance as a unilateral right of the Mortgagor, subject to satisfaction of conditions specified in the Loan Documents; (ii) the Mortgage Loan cannot be defeased within two years after the Closing Date; (iii) the Mortgagor is permitted to pledge only United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations, the revenues from which will, in the case of a full Defeasance, be sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Loan when due, including the entire remaining principal balance on the maturity date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment penalty) or, if the Mortgage Loan is an ARD Mortgage Loan, the entire principal balance outstanding on the Anticipated Repayment Date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment penalty), and if the Mortgage Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial Defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (a) 110% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and (b) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; (iv) the Mortgagor is required to provide a certification from an independent certified public accountant that the collateral is sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note as set forth in clause (iii) above; (v) if the Mortgagor would continue to own assets in addition to the Defeasance collateral, the portion of the Mortgage Loan secured by defeasance collateral is required to be assumed (or the mortgagee may require such assumption) by a Single-Purpose Entity; (vi) the Mortgagor is required to provide an opinion of counsel that the mortgagee has a perfected security interest in such collateral prior to any other claim or interest; and (vii)

Exhibit B-14

the Mortgagor is required to pay all rating agency fees associated with Defeasance (if rating confirmation is a specific condition precedent thereto) and all other reasonable expenses associated with Defeasance, including, but not limited to, accountant’s fees and opinions of counsel.

(33) Fixed Interest Rates. Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except in the case of any ARD Mortgage Loans and situations where default interest is imposed.

(34) Ground Leases. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Ground Lease” shall mean a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land, or with respect to air rights leases, the air, and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner and does not include industrial development agency (IDA) or similar leases for purposes of conferring a tax abatement or other benefit.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a leasehold estate under a Ground Lease in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of the Seller, its successors and assigns, the Seller represents and warrants that:

(a) The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease or an estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor permits the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and does not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage;

(b) The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Mortgage File (or in such Ground Lease) that the Ground Lease may not be amended or modified, or canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee, without the prior written consent of the lender, and no such consent has been granted by the Seller since the origination of the Mortgage Loan except as reflected in any written instruments which are included in the related Mortgage File;

(c) The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either Mortgagor or the mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Mortgage Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Mortgage Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

Exhibit B-15

(d) The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances, or (ii)  is subject to a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement to which the mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest in the Mortgaged Property is subject;

(e) The Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder, and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor;

(f) The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Closing Date;

(g) The Ground Lease or ancillary agreement between the lessor and the lessee requires the lessor to give to the lender written notice of any default, and provides that no notice of default or termination is effective against the lender unless such notice is given to the lender;

(h) A lender is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the lender’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i) The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by the Seller in connection with loans originated for securitization;

(j) Under the terms of the Ground Lease, an estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest (other than (i) de minimis amounts for minor casualties or (ii) in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in clause (k) below) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Loan Documents) the lender or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest;

Exhibit B-16

(k) In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease, an estoppel or other agreement and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l) Provided that the lender cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with lender upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

(35) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been, in all respects, legal and have met customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for conduit loan programs.

(36) Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Mortgage Loan and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Exhibit B.

(37) No Material Default; Payment Record. No Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required payments since origination, and no Mortgage Loan is more than 30 days delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments as of the Closing Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Mortgage Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property, provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Exhibit B. No person other than the holder of such Mortgage Loan may declare any event of default under the Mortgage Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under the Loan Documents.

(38) Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, no Mortgagor, guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

Exhibit B-17

(39) Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except with respect to any Crossed Mortgage Loan, no Mortgage Loan has a Mortgagor that is an Affiliate of another Mortgagor under another Mortgage Loan. (An “Affiliate” for purposes of this paragraph (39) means, a Mortgagor that is under direct or indirect common ownership and control with another Mortgagor.)

(40) Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA either (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation with respect to any Environmental Condition that was identified, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable environmental laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related lender; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, and the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated in all material respects prior to the Cut-Off Date, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action or closure letter was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the Environmental Condition affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) a secured creditor environmental policy or a pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the Environmental Condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than A- (or the equivalent) by Moody’s, S&P and/or Fitch; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such Environmental Condition and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

Exhibit B-18

(41) Appraisal. The Servicing File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within 6 months of the Mortgage Loan origination date, and within 12 months of the Closing Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser who is either a Member of the Appraisal Institute (“MAI”) and/or has been licensed and certified to prepare appraisals in the state where the Mortgaged Property is located. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation and has certified that such appraiser had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and its compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan.

(42) Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Mortgage Loan which is set forth in the mortgage loan schedule attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement is true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date and contains all information required by this Agreement to be contained therein.

(43) Cross-Collateralization. No Mortgage Loan is cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any mortgage loan that is outside the Trust, except as set forth on Schedule B-3.

(44) Hospitality Provisions. The Loan Documents for each Mortgage Loan that is secured by a hospitality property operated pursuant to a franchise or license agreement includes an executed comfort letter or similar agreement signed by the related Mortgagor and franchisor or licensor of such property that, subject to the applicable terms of such franchise or license agreement and comfort letter or similar agreement, is enforceable by the Trust (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, by the related Other Securitization Trust) against such franchisor or licensor either (A) directly or as an assignee of the originator, or (B) upon the Seller’s or its designee’s providing notice of the transfer of the Mortgage Loan to the Trust (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, by the seller of the note which is contributed to the related Other Securitization Trust or its designee providing notice of the transfer of such note to the related Other Securitization Trust) in accordance with the terms of such executed comfort letter or similar agreement, which the Seller or its designee (except in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall provide, or if neither (A) nor (B) is applicable, except in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller or its designee shall apply for, on the Trust’s behalf, a new comfort letter or similar agreement as of the Closing Date. The mortgage or related security agreement for each Mortgage Loan secured by a hospitality property creates a security interest in the revenues of such property for which a UCC financing statement has been filed in the appropriate filing office. For the avoidance of doubt, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in revenues to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(45) Advance of Funds by the Seller. After origination, no advance of funds has been made by the Seller to the related Mortgagor other than in accordance with the Loan Documents, and, to the Seller’s knowledge, no funds have been received from any person other than the

Exhibit B-19

related Mortgagor or an affiliate for, or on account of, payments due on the Mortgage Loan (other than as contemplated by the Loan Documents, such as, by way of example and not in limitation of the foregoing, amounts paid by the tenant(s) into a lender-controlled lockbox if required or contemplated under the related lease or Loan Documents). Neither the Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contribution to any Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan, other than contributions made on or prior to the Closing Date.

(46) Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Seller has complied in all material respects with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Mortgage Loan, the failure to comply with which would have a material adverse effect on the Mortgage Loan.

For purposes of these representations and warranties, the phrases “the Seller’s knowledge” or “the Seller’s belief” and other words and phrases of like import mean, except where otherwise expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, the actual state of knowledge or belief of the Seller, its officers and employees directly responsible for the underwriting, origination, servicing or sale of the Mortgage Loans regarding the matters expressly set forth in these representations and warranties.

This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of May 1, 2024, is between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as purchaser (the “Purchaser”), and German American Capital Corporation, a Maryland corporation, as seller (the “Seller”).

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Purchaser, as depositor (in such capacity, the “Depositor”), Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and as asset representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”), Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”) and as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), pursuant to which the Purchaser will transfer the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein), together with certain other commercial, multifamily and/or manufactured housing community mortgage loans (collectively, the “Other Loans”), to a trust fund (the “Trust Fund”). In exchange for the Mortgage Loans and the Other Loans, the Trust Fund will issue, to or at the direction of the Depositor, certificates to be known as BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4 (collectively, the “Certificates”), and any Uncertificated Interests (if applicable).

For purposes of this Agreement, “Mortgage Loans” refers to the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (including as reflected in any footnotes to such exhibit) and “Mortgaged Properties” refers to the properties securing such Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller is selling one or more Co-sponsored Mortgage Loans, each such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is identified on Annex A to this Agreement. A “Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan” is (i) part of an entire Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or part of a Whole Loan, (ii) comprised of 2 or more separate Notes being sold to the Purchaser by two or more separate sellers (also referred to as Applicable Co-sponsors) as identified on Annex A to this Agreement, and (iii) if such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is part of a Whole Loan, comprised of the entire portion of such Whole Loan that is being contributed to the Trust (i.e. there may be other Notes evidencing Companion Loans that are not contributed to the Trust). “Applicable Co-sponsor” means, as to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, each seller of the subject Notes to the Purchaser, as identified on Annex A to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, although the term “Mortgage Loan” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Offering Documents means the entire such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, for the purposes of determining any rights or obligations of the Seller and the related Applicable Co-sponsor(s) with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Applicable Co-sponsor’s related mortgage loan purchase agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the term “Mortgage Loan” refers to the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) contributed to the Trust by such Applicable Co-sponsor and such promissory note(s) shall be treated like a separate Mortgage Loan.

The Purchaser and the Seller wish to prescribe the manner of sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser and in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, agree as follows:

SECTION 1        Sale and Conveyance of Mortgages; Possession of Mortgage File. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, representation or warranty (except as otherwise specifically set forth herein), subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan (other than any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”), including all interest and principal received or receivable on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding payments of principal and interest and other amounts due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-Off Date and excluding any Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loans).

In addition, on the Closing Date, solely in the event the initial Distribution Date occurs in February (except during a leap year) or March, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer (for deposit into the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account) (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Trust Fund the aggregate Initial Interest Deposit Amount with respect to those Mortgage Loans that accrue interest on an Actual/360 Basis, which Initial Interest Deposit Amount for each such Mortgage Loan shall represent an amount equal to (i) if the initial Distribution Date is in February, one day of interest (except during a leap year), and (ii) if the initial Distribution Date is in March, two days of interest (or one day of interest during a leap year), in each case, at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the related Cut-Off Date Balance of each such Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, no Initial Interest Deposit Amount will be due and owing if (i) the initial Distribution Date does not occur in February or March, or (ii) if the initial Distribution Date occurs in February during a leap year.

In addition, on the Closing Date, if one or more Mortgage Loans is identified opposite the Seller’s name on Annex B to this Agreement (which Mortgage Loans do not have a Due Date in the month of the first Distribution Date), the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer or the Certificate Administrator (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), for deposit into the account set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on behalf of the Seller and for the benefit of the Trust Fund, the Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount with respect to each such Mortgage Loan, which Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount shall represent an amount equal to one-month’s interest accrued with respect to each such Mortgage Loan at the related Net Mortgage Rate for the month preceding the month of the first Distribution Date.

Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Note, the Seller’s interest in the related Mortgage represented by the Note and the other contents of the related Mortgage File (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) will be vested in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee, and the ownership of records and documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than those to be held by the holder of any related Companion Loan

-2-

that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) prepared by or which come into the possession of the Seller shall (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) immediately vest in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee. In connection with the transfer pursuant to this Section 1 of any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, the Seller does hereby assign to the Purchaser all of its rights, title and interest (solely in its capacity as the holder of the subject Mortgage Loan) in, to and under the related Co-Lender Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the Seller does not assign any right, title or interest that it or any other party may have thereunder in its capacity as the holder of any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). The Seller’s assignment of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement.

The Purchaser will sell: (i) the Public Certificates to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Underwriters; (ii) the Private Certificates to the Initial Purchasers (the Initial Purchasers, collectively with the Underwriters, are referred to herein as the “Dealers”) specified in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Initial Purchasers; and (iii) if applicable, any classes of Loan-Specific Certificates pursuant to a related purchase agreement between the Purchaser and any applicable Loan-Specific Initial Purchasers identified therein.

The sale and conveyance of the Mortgage Loans is being conducted on an arms-length basis and upon commercially reasonable terms. As the consideration for the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser shall: (i) pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Seller or at the Seller’s direction that sum set forth in the funding schedule executed by the Seller and the Purchaser relating to the sale of the Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby (but subject to certain post-settlement adjustments for expenses incurred by the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Depositor and for which the Seller is specifically responsible); and (ii) if the Seller is listed on Annex C to this Agreement, cause any Uncertificated Interests or Class VRR Certificates identified on Annex C hereto opposite the Seller’s name to be registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in the name of the Seller.

The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2        Books and Records; Certain Funds Received After the Cut-Off Date. From and after the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, record title to each Mortgage (other than with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Note shall be transferred to the Trustee subject to and in accordance with this Agreement. Any funds due after the Cut-Off Date in connection with a Mortgage Loan received by the Seller shall be held in trust on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders) as the owner of such Mortgage Loan and shall be transferred promptly to the Certificate Administrator. All scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date but collected after the Cut-Off Date, and all recoveries and payments of principal and interest collected on or before the Cut-Off Date (only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-Off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall belong to, and shall be promptly remitted to, the Seller.

-3-

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Seller’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the sale of such Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser. The Seller intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser as a sale for tax purposes. Following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser, the Seller shall not take any actions inconsistent with the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser and its assignees.

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Purchaser’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the purchase of such Mortgage Loan by the Purchaser from the Seller. The Purchaser intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the Seller as a purchase for tax purposes. The Purchaser shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a set of records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the transfer of ownership of each Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Seller will receive the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 3        Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Additional Costs and Expenses. (a) The Purchaser hereby directs the Seller, and the Seller hereby agrees, such agreement effective upon the transfer of the Mortgage Loans as contemplated herein, to deliver to and deposit with (or to cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Custodian (on behalf of the Trustee), with copies (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to be delivered to the Master Servicer, on the dates set forth in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered by the Purchaser, or contemplated to be delivered by the Seller (whether at the direction of the Purchaser or otherwise), to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, with respect to the Mortgage Loans under Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and meeting all the requirements of such Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

With respect to letters of credit (exclusive of those relating to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer, and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall require the Master Servicer to hold, the original (or copy, if such original has been submitted by the Seller to the issuing bank to effect an assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer) for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, to the extent required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents)) and the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied any such delivery requirements by delivering with respect to any letter(s) of credit a copy thereof to the Custodian together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller certifying that such document has been delivered to the Master Servicer or an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that it holds the letter(s) of credit pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If a letter of credit

-4-

referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents, the Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Master Servicer within 90 days of the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(b)               Except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall deliver to and deposit with (or cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date: (i) a copy of the Mortgage File; (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan(s), (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any related asset summaries that were delivered to the Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Certificates, material notices related to tenant leases, and any related operating statements, financial statements, appraisals or similar reports) or any related Serviced Companion Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans or holders of interests therein, and (C) are in the possession or under the control of the Seller; and (iii) all unapplied Escrow Payments and reserve funds in the possession or under control of the Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans together with a statement indicating which Escrow Payments and reserve funds are allocable to each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3(b) shall not apply to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by any Mortgaged Property that is subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any such related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Seller or its designee shall, within 45 days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor for the transfer or assignment of such comfort letter or issuance of a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), with a copy of such notice or request to the Custodian (who shall include such document

-5-

in the related Mortgage File) and the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, deliver the original of such replacement comfort letter, new document or acknowledgement, as applicable, to the Custodian for inclusion in the Mortgage File.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver Mortgage Note(s) to the Custodian shall be limited to delivery to the Custodian of only the Mortgage Note(s) held by such Applicable Co-sponsor. With respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver the remaining portion of the related Mortgage File or any remaining document required to be delivered with respect thereto shall be joint and several, provided that any one of the Applicable Co-sponsors may deliver one Mortgage File (exclusive of the related Mortgage Notes) or one of any other remaining document required to be delivered with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan hereunder and under the mortgage loan purchase agreement(s) between the Purchaser and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s), and such delivery shall satisfy the corresponding delivery requirements for both the Seller and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s).

(e)               Upon written request from the Special Servicer, the Seller shall deliver a power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement to the Special Servicer, that permits the Special Servicer to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement actions by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 4        Treatment as a Security Agreement. Pursuant to Section 1 hereof, the Seller has conveyed to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the parties also intend and agree that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and in such event does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal or interest on such Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-Off Date, all other payments made in respect of such Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date) and all proceeds thereof, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser hypothecating and transferring such security interest in favor of the Trustee and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Trustee.

SECTION 5        Covenants of the Seller. The Seller covenants with the Purchaser as follows:

(a)               with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), it shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file, in

-6-

the appropriate public recording office for real property records or UCC financing statements, as appropriate, each related assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases, and each related UCC-3 financing statement referred to in the definition of Mortgage File, in each case in favor of the Trustee, as and to the extent contemplated under Section 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the recordation or filing of such assignments of Assignment of Leases, assignments of Mortgage and financing statements shall be paid by (or caused to be paid by) the Seller. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and the Seller shall record or file, or cause the recording or filing of, such substitute or corrected document or instrument, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to such third party (or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan);

(b)               as to each Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the Seller cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, it shall forward to the Custodian a copy of the original certified by the Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording. The Seller shall cause each assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above to reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the Seller or its designee, in which case the Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof;

(c)               except for actions that are the express responsibility of another party hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer, including effectuating the transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and any Serviced Companion Loan Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(c) shall not apply with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan;

(d)               the Seller shall provide the Master Servicer the initial data with respect to each Mortgage Loan for the CREFC^® Financial File and the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File that are required to be prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

-7-

(e)               if (during the period of time that the Underwriters are required, under applicable law, to deliver a prospectus related to the Public Certificates in connection with sales of the Public Certificates by an Underwriter or a dealer) the Seller has obtained actual knowledge of undisclosed or corrected information related to an event that occurred prior to the Closing Date, which event causes there to be an untrue statement of a material fact with respect to the Seller Information (as such term is defined in the Indemnification Agreement) in the Prospectus, the Offering Circular or any Loan-Specific Offering Circular (the Prospectus, the Offering Circular and any Loan-Specific Offering Circular are collectively referred to herein as the “Offering Documents”), or causes there to be an omission to state therein a material fact with respect to the Seller Information required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein with respect to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Seller shall promptly notify the Dealers and the Depositor. If as a result of any such event the Dealers’ legal counsel determines that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Documents in order to correct the untrue statement, or to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or to make the Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to the Seller Information) at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Dealers, such amendments or supplements to the Offering Documents as may be necessary so that the Seller Information in the Offering Documents, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law. (All capitalized terms used in this Section 5(e) and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date for the Certificates, between, among others, the Dealers, the Seller and the Depositor (the “Indemnification Agreement” and, together with this Agreement, the “Operative Documents”).) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall have no affirmative obligation to monitor the performance of the Mortgage Loans or any changes in condition or circumstance of any Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor, guarantor or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date in connection with its obligations under this Section 5(e);

(f)                for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Seller shall: (1) provide the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and any Form 8-K Disclosure Information for which the Seller is responsible as indicated on Exhibit U, Exhibit V and Exhibit Z to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that, in connection with providing Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and the Seller’s reporting obligations under Item 1119 of Regulation AB, upon reasonable request by the Seller, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a list of all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any other Servicing Function Participant; and (2) reasonably cooperate with each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, upon the reasonable request of such party, by providing all Mortgage Loan related documents, data and information in the possession of the Seller at or prior to the Closing Date and on the date of such request and necessary for the ongoing compliance by the Depositor and the Trust with the requirements of Form 10-D with respect to Items 1111 and 1125 of Regulation AB; provided, that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the

-8-

related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(g)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered an electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence File (including, if applicable, any additional documents that the Seller believes should be included to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform an Asset Review on such Mortgage Loan; provided that such documents are clearly labeled and identified) to the Designated Site, each such Diligence File being organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor;

(h)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Depositor (with a copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) with a certification by an authorized officer of the Seller, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, that the electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan uploaded to the Designated Site contains all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor, which such certification or copies thereof may be sent via email;

(i)                 upon written request of the Asset Representations Reviewer (in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for a Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan), the Seller shall provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written request (which time period may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the Seller and the Asset Representations Reviewer), such documents requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer and in the possession of the Seller relating to each such Delinquent Loan to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete any Test for each such Delinquent Loan, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(j)                 upon the completion of an Asset Review with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan and receipt by the Seller of a written invoice from the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Seller shall pay to the Asset Representations Reviewer, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such written invoice, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to such Delinquent Loan as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to adjustment with respect to any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan(s), as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(k)               if the Preliminary Asset Review Report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the Seller shall have 90 days

-9-

from receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report. If the Seller elects to refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report, the Seller shall provide to the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test;

(l)                 the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event an Enforcing Party elects a dispute resolution method pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Seller shall abide by the selected dispute resolution method and otherwise comply with the terms and provisions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) related to the resolution method;

(m)             the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages and other liabilities, including without limitation the costs of investigation, legal defense and any amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation arising out of or based upon (i) any failure of the Seller to pay the fees described under Section 5(j) above within 90 days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) any failure by the Seller to provide all documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to Sections 5(g) and 5(i) of this Agreement and under the definition of “Diligence File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within 60 days of the Closing Date (or such later date specified herein or in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); and

(n)               with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is (or may become pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement) part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan, (x) in the event that the Closing Date occurs on or prior to the closing date of the related Outside Securitization Trust (such event, the “Outside Securitization”), the Seller shall provide (or cause to be provided) to the Depositor (and counsel thereto) and the Certificate Administrator (i) written notice in a timely manner of (but no later than three (3) Business Days prior to) the closing date of such Outside Securitization, and (ii) no later than one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization, a copy of the Outside Servicing Agreement in an EDGAR-compatible format, and (y) in the event that the Closing Date occurs after the closing date of the Outside Securitization, the Seller shall provide, or cause the Outside Depositor to provide, the Depositor (and counsel thereto) with a copy of the related Outside Servicing Agreement (together with any amendments thereto) in an EDGAR-compatible format by the later of (i) two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and (ii) one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization.

jurisdictions to the extent such qualification is necessary to hold and sell the Mortgage Loans or otherwise comply with its obligations under this Agreement except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations hereunder, and the Seller has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution and delivery of, and performance under, the Operative Documents and has duly executed and delivered each Operative Document, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform under each Operative Document and all the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, but not limited to, the power and authority to sell, assign, transfer, set over and convey the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement;

(ii)                             Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser, this Agreement will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (B) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (C) public policy considerations underlying the securities laws, to the extent that such public policy considerations limit the enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement that purport to provide indemnification for securities laws liabilities;

(iii)                          The execution and delivery of each Operative Document by the Seller and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which the Seller is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Seller’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Seller, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Seller’s assets or property, in each case, which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents;

(iv)                         There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Seller’s knowledge, threatened against the Seller in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of the Mortgage Loans or the ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by each Operative Document;

(v)                            The Seller is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that, in the Seller’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Seller or its properties or might have consequences that, in the Seller’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

(i)                                The Purchaser is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with full corporate power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business, is duly qualified as a foreign corporation in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of its property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Purchaser to perform its obligations hereunder, and the Purchaser has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it, and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all the transactions contemplated hereby;

(ii)                             Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller, this Agreement will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);

(iii)                          The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser and the performance of its obligations hereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which the Purchaser is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Purchaser’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Purchaser, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Purchaser’s assets or property, in each case which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Purchaser to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

-12-

(iv)                         There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against the Purchaser in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of this Agreement or any action taken in connection with the obligations of the Purchaser contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the Purchaser to perform under the terms of this Agreement;

(v)                            The Purchaser is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Purchaser or its properties or might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

(vii)          The Purchaser has (i) prepared a report on Form ABS-15G under the Exchange Act (the “Form 15G”) that attaches the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report (as defined herein) (a final draft of which Form 15G was provided to the Seller at least 5 business days before the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates); and (ii) furnished the Form 15G to the Commission (as defined herein) on EDGAR at least 5 business days before the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates as required by Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act.

(c)               The Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to the Mortgage Loans (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) set forth on Exhibit B to this Agreement as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit B to this Agreement, which representations and warranties are subject to the exceptions thereto set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement. If the Seller’s Mortgage Loans contain a related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, then such Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to such related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan set forth on Exhibit I to this Agreement (if any) as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit I to this Agreement.

(d)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, if (i) any party thereto (other than the Asset Representations Reviewer) discovers or receives notice alleging that any document required to be included in a Mortgage File by (or on behalf of) the Seller has not been properly executed, is missing, contains information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or does not appear to be regular on its face (each, a “Document Defect”), or discovers or receives notice alleging a breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller made pursuant to Section 6(c) of this Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan (a “Breach”) or (ii) the Special Servicer or the

-13-

Purchaser receives a Repurchase Request, then such party is required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller.

(e)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Enforcing Servicer is required to determine whether any such Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan materially and adversely affects, or such Document Defect is deemed in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to materially and adversely affect, the value of the Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or the interests of the Trustee or any Certificateholder in the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or causes any Mortgage Loan to fail to be a Qualified Mortgage (any such Document Defect shall constitute a “Material Document Defect” and any such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach”; and a Material Breach and/or a Material Document Defect, as the case may be, shall constitute a “Material Defect”). If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect, then the Enforcing Servicer will be required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller, demanding that the Seller cure such Material Defect. Promptly upon becoming aware of any such Material Defect (including, without limitation, through a written notice given by any party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as provided above if the Document Defect or Breach identified therein is a Material Defect), the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the Seller’s (x) discovery of, and (y) receipt of notice of and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to such Material Defect (or, in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days from any party discovering such Material Defect), cure the same in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of any losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses associated therewith (including, if applicable, the amount of any fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer payable pursuant to Section 5(j) above attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan)) or, if such Material Defect cannot be cured within such 90-day period, the Seller shall (before the end of such 90-day period) either: (i) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property (or the Trust Fund’s interest therein) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account; or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date and in no event shall any such substitution be effected with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) and pay the Master Servicer, for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith; provided, that the Seller may not repurchase any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan without repurchasing its Mortgage Loan that is part of the same Whole Loan (so long as there is a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan); and provided, further, however, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such 90-day period, then the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure (or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as described above) it being understood and agreed that, in connection with the Seller’s receiving such additional 90-day period, the Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day period and what actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the Seller anticipates that such Material Defect

-14-

will be cured within such additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the initial 90-day period and any such additional 90-day period solely due to the failure of the Seller to have received the recorded document, then the Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect so long as the Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator every 30 days thereafter that the Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date. Any such repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. The Seller shall have no obligation to monitor the Mortgage Loans regarding the existence of a Breach or a Document Defect, but if the Seller discovers a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, it will notify the Purchaser. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-Off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and shall be required, under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller promptly following receipt. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. No mortgage loan may be substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Section 6(e) if the Mortgage Loan to be replaced was itself a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that had replaced a prior Mortgage Loan, in which case, absent a cure (including by the making of a Loss of Value Payment pursuant to the following paragraph) of the relevant Material Defect, the affected Mortgage Loan will be required to be repurchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), in lieu of the Seller performing its obligations with respect to any Material Defect as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to the extent that the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer (subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder or, in the case of any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative so long as it is the applicable Directing Holder) as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, are able to agree upon a cash payment payable by the Seller to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, that would be deemed sufficient to compensate the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, for a Material Defect (a “Loss of Value Payment”), the Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such Loss of Value Payment to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable; provided that a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage, may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment; and provided, further, that the Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Loss of Value Payment relates to a Co-sponsored

-15-

Mortgage Loan, the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement). Upon its making a Loss of Value Payment, the Seller shall be deemed to have cured the subject Material Defect in all respects. Provided that such Loss of Value Payment is made, this paragraph describes the sole remedy available to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, and its assignees regarding any such Material Defect, and the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase or replace the affected Mortgage Loan or otherwise cure such Material Defect. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, provided that, prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Seller or the Enforcing Servicer, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and within the time frames set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this Section 6(e) (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan).

If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as described above (a “Defective Mortgage Loan”), (y) such Defective Mortgage Loan is part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and (z) the applicable Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Material Defect as to the other Mortgage Loan(s) that are a part of such Cross-Collateralized Group (the “Other Crossed Loans”) (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Document Defect or Breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to each such Other Crossed Loan for purposes of the above provisions, and the Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such Other Crossed Loan in accordance with the provisions above unless, in the case of such Breach or Document Defect, as applicable:

(A) the Seller (at its expense) delivers or causes to be delivered to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Seller’s repurchase or replacement of only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Defect has actually occurred without regard to the provisions of this paragraph (the “Affected Loan(s)”) and the operation of the remaining provisions of this Section 6(e) (i) will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Certificate is outstanding and (ii) will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code); and

(B)  each of the following conditions would be satisfied if the Seller were to repurchase or replace only the Affected Loans and not the Other Crossed Loans:

(1)   the debt service coverage ratio for such Other Crossed Loan(s) (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not less than the lesser of (A) 0.10x below the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus and (B) the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-

-16-

Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) for the four preceding calendar quarters preceding the repurchase or replacement;

(2)   the loan-to-value ratio for the Other Crossed Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the greatest of (A) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus plus 10%, (B) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) at the time of repurchase or replacement and (C) 75%; and

(3)   either (x) the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group will not impair the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group or (y) the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans have been modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that removes any threat of impairment of the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group as a result of the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group.

The determination of the Enforcing Servicer as to whether the conditions set forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error on the Certificateholders, other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Seller. The Enforcing Servicer will be entitled to cause to be delivered, or direct the Seller to (in which case the Seller shall) cause to be delivered, to the Enforcing Servicer an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause (B)(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the Seller if the scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the Seller and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in each case).

With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan that forms a part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and as to which the conditions described in the second preceding paragraph are satisfied, such that the Trust Fund will continue to hold the Other Crossed Loans, the Seller and the Depositor agree to forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each is permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan(s) still held by the Trust Fund. If the exercise of remedies by one such party would impair the ability of the other such party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan or the Other Crossed Loans, as the case may be, held by the other such party, then both parties shall forbear from exercising such remedies unless and until the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans can be modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment as a result of the

-17-

exercise of remedies. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing any of the Mortgage Loans that form a Cross-Collateralized Group shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Loan Documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. All other terms of the Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect, without any modification thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall be binding on all future holders of each Mortgage Loan that forms part of a Cross-Collateralized Group.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that, to the extent necessary and appropriate, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will execute (pursuant to a limited power of attorney provided by the Trustee who will not be liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any of its agents or subcontractors) the modification of the Loan Documents that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment of the ability of the Seller or the Trust Fund to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loan(s) held by such party resulting from the exercise of remedies by the other such party. All costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer with respect to any Cross-Collateralized Group pursuant to this paragraph and the first, second and third preceding paragraphs shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as provided for in Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and such advances and interest thereon shall be included in the calculation of Purchase Price for the Affected Loan(s) to be repurchased or replaced.

Subject to the Seller’s right to cure set forth above in this Section 6(e), and further subject to Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, failure of the Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8) and (18) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except such deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

If there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties securing a Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase such Mortgage Loan if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property(ies) are, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the related Loan Documents and the Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such

release would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

With respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees that if a “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) exists under the related Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan included in the related Outside Securitization Trust, and such Outside Serviced Companion Loan is repurchased by or on behalf of such Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) from the related Outside Securitization Trust as a result of such “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in such Outside Servicing Agreement), then the Seller shall repurchase such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) related solely to the promissory note for such Outside Serviced Companion Loan.

(f)                In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or more Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the repurchasing entity evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File (including, without limitation, the Servicing File) and other documents and all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the repurchasing or substituting entity or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and reconveyance of the Mortgage Loan and the security therefor to the Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. In the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan by the Seller as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian the related Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of any deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) and deliver or cause the delivery of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Upon any substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall become part of the Trust Fund and be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

(g)               The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Notes or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files.

(h)               Each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other party upon discovery of any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement. The Seller’s obligation to cure any Material Defect or to repurchase, or substitute for, or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to, any affected Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a breach of any of the Seller’s representations or warranties contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement or a Document Defect with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(i)                 The Seller shall promptly notify the Depositor if (i) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request (other than from the Depositor), (ii) the Seller repurchases or replaces a Mortgage Loan, (iii) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal (other than from the Depositor) or (iv) the Seller rejects or disputes any Repurchase Request. Each such notice shall be given no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after (A) with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding sentence, receipt of a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, as applicable, and (B) with respect to clauses (ii) and (iv) of the preceding sentence, the occurrence of the event giving rise to the requirement for such notice, and shall include (1) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan and the person making the Repurchase Request, (2) the date (x) such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal was received, (y) the related Mortgage Loan was repurchased or replaced or (z) the Repurchase Request was rejected or disputed, as applicable, and (3) if known, the basis for (x) the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) or (y) any rejection or dispute of a Repurchase Request, as applicable.

The Seller shall provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator the Seller’s “Central Index Key” number assigned by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and a true, correct and complete copy of the relevant portions of any Form ABS-15G that the Seller is required to file with the Commission under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Mortgage Loans, on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days before the date such Form ABS-15G is required to be filed with the Commission.

In addition, the Seller shall provide the Depositor, upon request, such other information in its possession as would permit the Depositor to comply with its obligations under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act to disclose fulfilled and unfulfilled repurchase requests. Any such information requested shall be provided as promptly as practicable after such request is made.

The Seller agrees that no Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider will be required to provide information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice that is protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. In addition, the Seller hereby acknowledges that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is so provided only to assist the Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law

-20-

or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to this Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.

Each party hereto agrees that the receipt of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice or the delivery of any notice required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6(i) shall not, in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of, receipt of notice of, or knowledge of the Seller of, any Material Defect.

Each party hereto agrees and acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, the “Central Index Key” number of the Trust Fund is 0002016125.

“Repurchase Communication” means, for purposes of this Section 6(i) only, any communication, whether oral or written, which need not be in any specific form.

(j)                 The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that it and the Purchaser have engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ernst & Young LLP (the “Accounting Firms”) to perform “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans and to prepare one or more “third-party due diligence reports” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act) (collectively, the “Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report”) in connection therewith. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Depositor that, except with respect to the Accounting Firms and the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report, the Seller, as of the Closing Date, (A) has not obtained any “third-party due diligence report” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act), and (B) has not retained any third party to engage in, and will not retain any third party to engage in, any activity that constitutes “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans, unless, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (B) and following the Closing Date, the Seller (i) provides prior written notice to the Depositor, (ii) requires the third-party due diligence provider to comply with its obligations under Section 15E(s)(4)(B) of, and Rule 17g-10 under, the Exchange Act (including with respect to the timely delivery to any applicable NRSRO and to the Depositor of a Form ABS Due Diligence-15E), and (iii) facilitates the Depositor’s compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3)(iii)(E) under the Exchange Act, with respect thereto. The Seller further represents and warrants that no portion of the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report contains, with respect to the information contained therein with respect to the Mortgage Loans, any names, addresses, other personal identifiers or zip codes with respect to any individuals, or any other personally identifiable or other information that would be associated with an individual, including without limitation any “nonpublic personal information” within the meaning of Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. The Underwriters and Initial Purchasers are third-party beneficiaries of the provisions set forth in this Section 6(j).

(k)               The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is not the Purchaser), the related Outside Servicing Agreement contains, or at the time such Outside Servicing Agreement is executed and delivered will contain, terms and provisions (or, to the extent

-21-

specified on Exhibit E to this Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement contains terms and provisions (and, to the extent contained in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the applicable documents provide that such terms and provisions are deemed included by reference into the related Outside Servicing Agreement)) that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement. The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is the Purchaser), the related Co-Lender Agreement does not contain any terms or provisions that conflict with (or that will conflict with) any terms or provisions in the related Outside Servicing Agreement that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement.

SECTION 7        Review of Mortgage File. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Custodian will be required to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and if it finds any document or documents not to have been properly executed, or to be missing or to be defective on its face in any material respect, to notify the Purchaser, which shall promptly notify the Seller.

SECTION 8        Conditions to Closing. The obligation of the Seller to sell the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the Seller having received the consideration for the Mortgage Loans as contemplated by Section 1 of this Agreement. The obligations of the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the satisfaction, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the following conditions:

(b)               The Pooling and Servicing Agreement (to the extent it affects the obligations of the Seller hereunder), in such form as is agreed upon and acceptable to the Purchaser, the Seller, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and their respective counsel in their reasonable discretion, shall be duly executed and delivered by all signatories as required pursuant to the terms thereof.

-22-

(ii)                             a certificate as of a recent date of the applicable regulatory body or governmental agency to the effect that the Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in the jurisdiction of its formation;

(iii)                          an officer’s certificate of the Seller in form reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and each Rating Agency;

(v)                            a letter from counsel of the Seller substantially to the effect that (a) nothing has come to such counsel’s attention that would lead such counsel to believe that the agreed upon sections of the Preliminary Prospectus (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Offering Circular, any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular or any final Loan-Specific Offering Circular, in each case as of the date thereof or as of the Closing Date (or, in the case of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular or any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular, solely as of the time of sale) contained or contain, as applicable, with respect to the Seller Information, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein relating to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (b) the Seller Information in the Prospectus appears to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of Regulation AB.

(d)               The Public Certificates shall have been concurrently issued and sold pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.

SECTION 21    No Partnership. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto.

EXHIBIT B

MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

(1) Whole Loan; Ownership of Mortgage Loans. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a Mortgage Loan. Each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is a portion of a whole loan evidenced by a Mortgage Note. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to the Purchaser, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller or, with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the trustee for the related Other Securitization Trust), participation or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. The Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Mortgage Loan, and the assignment to the Purchaser constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Mortgage Loan.

(2) Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Loan Documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment/yield maintenance fees, charges and/or premiums) are, or may be, further limited or rendered unenforceable by or under applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Loan Documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentences, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by the Seller in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, that would deny the mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Loan Documents.

Exhibit B-1

(3) Mortgage Provisions. The Loan Documents for each Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

(4) Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except by written instruments set forth in the related Mortgage File or as otherwise provided in the related Loan Documents (a)(1) there has been no forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such forbearance, waiver or modification relates to the COVID-19 emergency, (2) as of the Cut-Off Date, to the knowledge of the Seller, there has been no written request from the related Mortgagor for a forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such request relates to the COVID-19 emergency and (3) other than as related to the COVID-19 emergency, the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Mortgage Loan guaranty and related Loan Documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the related Mortgagor nor the related guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the Mortgage Loan. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, except as contained in a written document included in the related Mortgage File, there have been no modifications, amendments or waivers that could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on such Mortgage Loan that have been consented to by the Seller on or after the Cut-Off Date.

(5) Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases to the Trust (or, with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Outside Trustee) constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment to the Trust (or, with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee or leasehold interest in the Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such Mortgage Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below) and the exceptions to paragraph (6) set forth on Exhibit C (each such exception, a “Title Exception”)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to and excepting Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions) as of origination was, and as of the Cut-Off Date, to the Seller’s knowledge, is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ liens, recorded materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances which are prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below), and, to the Seller’s knowledge and subject to

Exhibit B-2

the rights of tenants (as tenants only)(subject to and excepting Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions), no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) financing statements is required in order to effect such perfection.

(6) Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy with escrow instructions or a “marked up” commitment, in each case binding on the title insurer)(the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property and condominium declarations; and (f) if the related Mortgage Loan is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan (each a “Crossed Mortgage Loan”), the lien of the Mortgage for such other Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with such Crossed Mortgage Loan, provided that none of which items (a) through (f), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or current use of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). For purposes of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon. Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the second preceding sentence, none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of the Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy.

Exhibit B-3

(7) Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Mortgage Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Crossed Mortgage Loan, there are, as of origination, and to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, no subordinate mortgages or junior liens securing the payment of money encumbering the related Mortgaged Property (other than Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions, taxes and assessments, mechanics and materialmen’s liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (5) above), and equipment and other personal property financing). Except as set forth on Schedule B-1, the Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor.

(8) Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits. There exists as part of the related Mortgage File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions (and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, subject to the related Assignment of Leases constituting security for the entire Whole Loan), each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to applicable law, provides that, upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan, a receiver is permitted to be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the mortgagee.

(9) UCC Filings. If the related Mortgaged Property is operated as a hospitality property, the Seller has filed and/or recorded or caused to be filed and/or recorded (or, if not filed and/or recorded, have been submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording), UCC financing statements in the appropriate public filing and/or recording offices necessary at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan to perfect a valid security interest in all items of physical personal property reasonably necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property owned by such Mortgagor and located on the related Mortgaged Property (other than any non-material personal property, any personal property subject to a purchase money security interest, a sale and leaseback financing arrangement as permitted under the terms of the related Loan Documents or any other personal property leases applicable to such personal property), to the extent perfection may be effected pursuant to applicable law by recording or filing, as the case may be. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each related Mortgage (or equivalent document) creates a valid and enforceable lien and security interest on the items of personalty described above. No representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of UCC financing statements are required in order to effect such perfection.

(10) Condition of Property. The Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six months of origination of the Mortgage Loan and within twelve months of the Cut-Off Date.

Exhibit B-4

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan no more than twelve months prior to the Cut-Off Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the Closing Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than (i) any damage or deficiency that is estimated to cost less than $50,000 to repair, (ii) any deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination and (iii) any damage fully covered by insurance) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan.

(11) Taxes and Assessments. All taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges), or installments thereof, that could be a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that would be of equal or superior priority to the lien of the Mortgage and that prior to the Cut-Off Date have become delinquent in respect of each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to cover such payments and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real estate taxes and governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges and installments thereof shall not be considered delinquent until the earlier of (a) the date on which interest and/or penalties would first be payable thereon and (b) the date on which enforcement action is entitled to be taken by the related taxing authority.

(12) Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding pending, and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the date of origination and as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding threatened, for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property.

(13) Actions Concerning Mortgage Loan. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Mortgage Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Loan Documents or (f) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property.

(14) Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and payments required to be escrowed with the lender pursuant to each Mortgage Loan are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no deficiencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required to be escrowed with lender under the related Loan Documents are being conveyed by the Seller to the Purchaser or its servicer (or, with respect to any Outside

Exhibit B-5

Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the Purchaser or servicer for the related Other Securitization Trust).

(15) No Holdbacks. The Stated Principal Balance as of the Cut-Off Date of the Mortgage Loan set forth on the mortgage loan schedule attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement has been fully disbursed as of the Closing Date and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by the Seller to merit such holdback).

(16) Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer or insurers meeting the requirements of the related Loan Documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (as defined below), in an amount (subject to a customary deductible) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor and included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

“Insurance Rating Requirements” means either (i) a claims paying or financial strength rating of any of the following; (a) at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company, (b) at least “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or (c) at least “A-” from S&P Global Ratings or (ii) the Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements. “Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements” means insurance provided by a syndicate of insurers, as to which (1) if such syndicate consists of 5 or more members, at least 60% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Rating Requirements (under clause (i) of the definition of such term) and up to 40% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings or at least “Baa3” by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., and (2) if such syndicate consists of 4 or fewer members, at least 75% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Rating Requirements (under clause (i) of the definition of such term) and up to 25% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings or at least “Baa3” by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Loan Documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with

Exhibit B-6

respect to each Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program, plus such additional excess flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by the Seller originating mortgage loans for securitization.

If the Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) 100% of the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements and personalty and fixtures owned by the Mortgagor and included in the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer or insurers meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements.

The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Loan Documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer or insurers meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for loans originated for securitization, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the structural and seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing either the scenario expected limit (“SEL”) or the probable maximum loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the SEL or PML, as applicable, was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the SEL or PML, as applicable, would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer or insurers meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (provided that for this purpose (only), the A.M. Best Company minimum rating referred to in the definition of Insurance Rating Requirements will be deemed to be at least “A:VIII”) in an amount not less than 100% of the SEL or PML, as applicable.

The Loan Documents require insurance proceeds in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then outstanding principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan (or Whole Loan, if applicable), the lender (or a trustee appointed

Exhibit B-7

by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan (or Whole Loan, if applicable) together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section required to be paid as of the Cut-Off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the lender under the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the Trustee (or, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Other Trustee). Each related Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain, or cause to be maintained, all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the lender to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the lender of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days prior notice to the lender of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by the Seller.

(17) Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Lots. Each Mortgaged Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has access via an irrevocable easement or irrevocable right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has uninhibited access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and all required utilities, all of which are appropriate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been, or will be, made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax lots, in which case the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which the Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax lots are created.

(18) No Encroachments. To the Seller’s knowledge based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the lender’s Title Policy (or, if such policy is not yet issued, a pro forma title policy, a preliminary title policy with escrow instructions or a “marked up” commitment) obtained in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan, all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy. No improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy. No improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments

Exhibit B-8

the removal of which would not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements obtained with respect to the Title Policy.

(19) No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Mortgage Loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date) or an equity participation by the Seller.

(20) REMIC. The Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Mortgage Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and (B) either: (a) such Mortgage Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including permanently affixed buildings and structural components, such as wiring, plumbing systems and central heating and air-conditioning systems, that are integrated into such buildings, serve such buildings in their passive functions and do not produce or contribute to the production of income other than consideration for the use or occupancy of space, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan) was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan) on such date or (ii) at the Closing Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan) on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Closing Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Mortgage Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Mortgage Loan will not be considered “significantly modified” solely by reason of the borrower having been granted a COVID-19 related forbearance provided that: (a) such Mortgage Loan forbearance is covered by Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12) by reason of satisfying the requirements for such coverage stated in Section 5.02(2) of Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12); and (b) the Seller identifies such Mortgage Loan and provides (x) the date on which such forbearance was granted, (y) the length in months of the forbearance, and (z) how the payments in forbearance will be paid (that is, by extension of maturity, change of amortization schedule, etc.). Any prepayment premium and yield maintenance charges

Exhibit B-9

applicable to the Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph shall have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

(21) Compliance with Usury Laws. The Mortgage Rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge, or prepayment premiums) of such Mortgage Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(22) Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Cut-Off Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Mortgage Loan by the Trust.

(23) Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related mortgagee.

(24) Local Law Compliance. To the Seller’s knowledge, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial, multifamily or, if applicable, manufactured housing community mortgage loans intended for securitization, with respect to the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan as of the date of origination of such Mortgage Loan and as of the Cut-Off Date, there are no material violations of applicable zoning ordinances, building codes and land laws (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) other than those which (i) constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure, as to which as the Mortgaged Property may be restored or repaired to the full extent necessary to maintain the use of the structure immediately prior to a casualty or the inability to restore or repair to the full extent necessary to maintain the use or structure immediately prior to the casualty would not materially and adversely affect the use or operation of the Mortgaged Property, (ii) are insured by the Title Policy or other insurance policy, (iii) are insured by law and ordinance insurance coverage in amounts customarily required by the Seller for loans originated for securitization that provides coverage for additional costs to rebuild and/or repair the property to current Zoning Regulations or (iv) would not have a material adverse effect on the Mortgage Loan. The terms of the Loan Documents require the Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable governmental regulations, zoning and building laws.

(25) Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Loan Documents that it shall keep all material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations necessary for its

Exhibit B-10

operation of the Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the Seller’s knowledge based upon a letter from any government authorities, zoning consultant’s report or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial, multifamily or, if applicable, manufactured housing community mortgage loans intended for securitization, all such material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations are in effect. The Mortgage Loan requires the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

(26) Recourse Obligations. The Loan Documents for each Mortgage Loan provide that (a) the related Mortgagor and at least one individual or entity shall be fully liable for actual losses, liabilities, costs and damages arising from certain acts of the related Mortgagor and/or its principals specified in the related Loan Documents, which acts generally include the following: (i) acts of fraud or intentional material misrepresentation, (ii) misapplication or misappropriation of rents (if after an event of default under the Mortgage Loan), insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, (iii) intentional material physical waste of the Mortgaged Property (but, in some cases, only to the extent there is sufficient cash flow generated by the related Mortgaged Property to prevent such waste), and (iv) any breach of the environmental covenants contained in the related Loan Documents, and (b) the Mortgage Loan shall become full recourse to the related Mortgagor and at least one individual or entity, if the related Mortgagor files a voluntary petition under federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law.

(27) Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Loan Documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial Defeasance (as defined in paragraph (32)), in each case, of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance (as defined in paragraph (32)), (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation or taking by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof. With respect to any partial release (including in connection with any partial Defeasance) under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations and (ii) would not cause the subject Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(3)(A); or (y) the mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Loan Documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged

Exhibit B-11

Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (or Whole Loan, as applicable) outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions.

In the case of any Mortgage Loan, in the event of a condemnation or taking of any portion of a Mortgaged Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, condemnation proceeds may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (or Whole Loan, as applicable).

No Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is a Crossed Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties or a portion thereof, including due to a partial condemnation, other than in compliance with the loan-to-value ratio and other requirements of the REMIC Provisions.

(28) Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage with quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, and quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls for properties that have leases contributing more than 5% of the in-place base rent and annual financial statements.

(29) Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Mortgage Loan over $20 million, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2019 (collectively referred to as “TRIA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each other Mortgage Loan, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) did not, as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, and, to the Seller’s knowledge, do not, as of the Cut-Off Date, specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related Loan Documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the

Exhibit B-12

mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, or damages related thereto except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by commercial availability on commercially reasonable terms, or as otherwise indicated on Exhibit C; provided, however, that if TRIA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then, provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Mortgage Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor shall not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Loan Documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance) at such time, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount.

(30) Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Mortgage Loan contains a “due on sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Loan Documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the lender which are customarily acceptable to the Seller lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Loan Documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold (in each case, a “Transfer”), other than as related to (i) family and estate planning Transfers or Transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) Transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Loan Documents, (iii) Transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in the related Mortgagor, (iv) Transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Loan Documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Loan Documents, such as a qualified equityholder, (v) Transfers of stock or similar equity units in publicly traded companies, (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraphs (27) and (32) herein or the exceptions thereto set forth on Exhibit C, or (vii) by reason of any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-1, or future permitted mezzanine debt as set forth on Schedule B-2 or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan or any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the related Loan Documents, (ii) purchase money security interests, (iii) any Crossed Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-3 or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Loan Documents provide that to the extent any Rating Agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

Exhibit B-13

(31) Single-Purpose Entity. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Mortgage Loan is outstanding. Both the Loan Documents and the organizational documents of the Mortgagor with respect to each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-Off Date Balance in excess of $5 million provide that the Mortgagor is a Single-Purpose Entity, and each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-Off Date Balance of $20 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-consolidation of the Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” shall mean an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents (or if the Mortgage Loan has a Cut-Off Date Balance equal to $5 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Loan Documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties securing the Mortgage Loans and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Loan Documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Loan Documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Crossed Mortgage Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

(32) Defeasance. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that, pursuant to the Loan Documents, can be defeased (a “Defeasance”), (i) the Loan Documents provide for Defeasance as a unilateral right of the Mortgagor, subject to satisfaction of conditions specified in the Loan Documents; (ii) the Mortgage Loan cannot be defeased within two years after the Closing Date; (iii) the Mortgagor is permitted to pledge only United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii) of the Treasury Regulations, the revenues from which will, in the case of a full Defeasance, be sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Loan when due, including the entire remaining principal balance on the maturity date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment penalty) or, if the Mortgage Loan is an ARD Mortgage Loan, the entire principal balance outstanding on the Anticipated Repayment Date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment penalty), and if the Mortgage Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial Defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (a) 110% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and (b) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; (iv) the Mortgagor is required to provide a certification from an independent certified public accountant that the collateral is sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note as set forth in clause (iii) above; (v) if the Mortgagor would continue to own assets in addition to the Defeasance collateral, the portion of the Mortgage Loan secured by defeasance collateral is required to be assumed (or the mortgagee may require such assumption) by a Single-Purpose Entity; (vi) the Mortgagor is required to provide an opinion of counsel that the mortgagee has a perfected security interest in such collateral prior to any other claim or interest; and (vii)

Exhibit B-14

the Mortgagor is required to pay all rating agency fees associated with Defeasance (if rating confirmation is a specific condition precedent thereto) and all other reasonable expenses associated with Defeasance, including, but not limited to, accountant’s fees and opinions of counsel.

(33) Fixed Interest Rates. Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except in the case of any ARD Mortgage Loans and situations where default interest is imposed.

(34) Ground Leases. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Ground Lease” shall mean a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land, or with respect to air rights leases, the air, and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner and does not include industrial development agency (IDA) or similar leases for purposes of conferring a tax abatement or other benefit.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a leasehold estate under a Ground Lease in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of the Seller, its successors and assigns, the Seller represents and warrants that:

(a) The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease or an estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor permits the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and does not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage;

(b) The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Mortgage File (or in such Ground Lease) that the Ground Lease may not be amended or modified, or canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee, without the prior written consent of the lender, and no such consent has been granted by the Seller since the origination of the Mortgage Loan except as reflected in any written instruments which are included in the related Mortgage File;

(c) The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either Mortgagor or the mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Mortgage Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Mortgage Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

Exhibit B-15

(d) The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances, or (ii)  is subject to a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement to which the mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest in the Mortgaged Property is subject;

(e) The Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder, and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor;

(f) The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Closing Date;

(g) The Ground Lease or ancillary agreement between the lessor and the lessee requires the lessor to give to the lender written notice of any default, and provides that no notice of default or termination is effective against the lender unless such notice is given to the lender;

(h) A lender is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the lender’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i) The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by the Seller in connection with loans originated for securitization;

(j) Under the terms of the Ground Lease, an estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest (other than (i) de minimis amounts for minor casualties or (ii) in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in clause (k) below) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Loan Documents) the lender or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest;

Exhibit B-16

(k) In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease, an estoppel or other agreement and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l) Provided that the lender cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with lender upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

(35) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been, in all respects, legal and have met customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for conduit loan programs.

(36) Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Mortgage Loan and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Exhibit B.

(37) No Material Default; Payment Record. No Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required payments since origination, and no Mortgage Loan is more than 30 days delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments as of the Closing Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Mortgage Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property, provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Exhibit B. No person other than the holder of such Mortgage Loan may declare any event of default under the Mortgage Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under the Loan Documents.

(38) Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, no Mortgagor, guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

Exhibit B-17

(39) Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except with respect to any Crossed Mortgage Loan, no Mortgage Loan has a Mortgagor that is an Affiliate of another Mortgagor under another Mortgage Loan. (An “Affiliate” for purposes of this paragraph (39) means, a Mortgagor that is under direct or indirect common ownership and control with another Mortgagor.)

(40) Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA either (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation with respect to any Environmental Condition that was identified, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable environmental laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related lender; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, and the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated in all material respects prior to the Cut-Off Date, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action or closure letter was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the Environmental Condition affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) a secured creditor environmental policy or a pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the Environmental Condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than A- (or the equivalent) by Moody’s, S&P and/or Fitch; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such Environmental Condition and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

Exhibit B-18

(41) Appraisal. The Servicing File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within 6 months of the Mortgage Loan origination date, and within 12 months of the Closing Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser who is either a Member of the Appraisal Institute (“MAI”) and/or has been licensed and certified to prepare appraisals in the state where the Mortgaged Property is located. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation and has certified that such appraiser had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and its compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan.

(42) Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Mortgage Loan which is set forth in the mortgage loan schedule attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement is true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date and contains all information required by this Agreement to be contained therein.

(43) Cross-Collateralization. No Mortgage Loan is cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any mortgage loan that is outside the Trust, except as set forth on Schedule B-3.

(44) Hospitality Provisions. The Loan Documents for each Mortgage Loan that is secured by a hospitality property operated pursuant to a franchise or license agreement includes an executed comfort letter or similar agreement signed by the related Mortgagor and franchisor or licensor of such property that, subject to the applicable terms of such franchise or license agreement and comfort letter or similar agreement, is enforceable by the Trust (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, by the related Other Securitization Trust) against such franchisor or licensor either (A) directly or as an assignee of the originator, or (B) upon the Seller’s or its designee’s providing notice of the transfer of the Mortgage Loan to the Trust (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, by the seller of the note which is contributed to the related Other Securitization Trust or its designee providing notice of the transfer of such note to the related Other Securitization Trust) in accordance with the terms of such executed comfort letter or similar agreement, which the Seller or its designee (except in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall provide, or if neither (A) nor (B) is applicable, except in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller or its designee shall apply for, on the Trust’s behalf, a new comfort letter or similar agreement as of the Closing Date. The mortgage or related security agreement for each Mortgage Loan secured by a hospitality property creates a security interest in the revenues of such property for which a UCC financing statement has been filed in the appropriate filing office. For the avoidance of doubt, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in revenues to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(45) Advance of Funds by the Seller. After origination, no advance of funds has been made by the Seller to the related Mortgagor other than in accordance with the Loan Documents, and, to the Seller’s knowledge, no funds have been received from any person other than the

Exhibit B-19

related Mortgagor or an affiliate for, or on account of, payments due on the Mortgage Loan (other than as contemplated by the Loan Documents, such as, by way of example and not in limitation of the foregoing, amounts paid by the tenant(s) into a lender-controlled lockbox if required or contemplated under the related lease or Loan Documents). Neither the Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contribution to any Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan, other than contributions made on or prior to the Closing Date.

(46) Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Seller has complied in all material respects with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Mortgage Loan, the failure to comply with which would have a material adverse effect on the Mortgage Loan.

For purposes of these representations and warranties, the phrases “the Seller’s knowledge” or “the Seller’s belief” and other words and phrases of like import mean, except where otherwise expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, the actual state of knowledge or belief of the Seller, its officers and employees directly responsible for the underwriting, origination, servicing or sale of the Mortgage Loans regarding the matters expressly set forth in these representations and warranties.

This right applies to a transfer to a Competitor in connection with a foreclosure, judicial or legal process, but is subordinate to the exercise of lender remedies so long as the deed of trust is validly recorded and in full force and effect, the loan is in compliance with the franchise agreement and the lender is not a Competitor or affiliated with a Competitor of the franchisor.

This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of May 1, 2024, is between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as purchaser (the “Purchaser”), and Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company, a New York limited partnership, as seller (the “Seller”).

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Purchaser, as depositor (in such capacity, the “Depositor”), Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and as asset representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”), Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”) and as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), pursuant to which the Purchaser will transfer the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein), together with certain other commercial, multifamily and/or manufactured housing community mortgage loans (collectively, the “Other Loans”), to a trust fund (the “Trust Fund”). In exchange for the Mortgage Loans and the Other Loans, the Trust Fund will issue, to or at the direction of the Depositor, certificates to be known as BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4 (collectively, the “Certificates”), and any Uncertificated Interests (if applicable).

For purposes of this Agreement, “Mortgage Loans” refers to the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (including as reflected in any footnotes to such exhibit) and “Mortgaged Properties” refers to the properties securing such Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller is selling one or more Co-sponsored Mortgage Loans, each such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is identified on Annex A to this Agreement. A “Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan” is (i) part of an entire Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or part of a Whole Loan, (ii) comprised of 2 or more separate Notes being sold to the Purchaser by two or more separate sellers (also referred to as Applicable Co-sponsors) as identified on Annex A to this Agreement, and (iii) if such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is part of a Whole Loan, comprised of the entire portion of such Whole Loan that is being contributed to the Trust (i.e. there may be other Notes evidencing Companion Loans that are not contributed to the Trust). “Applicable Co-sponsor” means, as to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, each seller of the subject Notes to the Purchaser, as identified on Annex A to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, although the term “Mortgage Loan” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Offering Documents means the entire such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, for the purposes of determining any rights or obligations of the Seller and the related Applicable Co-sponsor(s) with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Applicable Co-sponsor’s related mortgage loan purchase agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the term “Mortgage Loan” refers to the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) contributed to the Trust by such Applicable Co-sponsor and such promissory note(s) shall be treated like a separate Mortgage Loan.

 

The Purchaser and the Seller wish to prescribe the manner of sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser and in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, agree as follows:

SECTION 1        Sale and Conveyance of Mortgages; Possession of Mortgage File. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, representation or warranty (except as otherwise specifically set forth herein), subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan (other than any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”), including all interest and principal received or receivable on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding payments of principal and interest and other amounts due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-Off Date and excluding any Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loans).

In addition, on the Closing Date, solely in the event the initial Distribution Date occurs in February (except during a leap year) or March, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer (for deposit into the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account) (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Trust Fund the aggregate Initial Interest Deposit Amount with respect to those Mortgage Loans that accrue interest on an Actual/360 Basis, which Initial Interest Deposit Amount for each such Mortgage Loan shall represent an amount equal to (i) if the initial Distribution Date is in February, one day of interest (except during a leap year), and (ii) if the initial Distribution Date is in March, two days of interest (or one day of interest during a leap year), in each case, at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the related Cut-Off Date Balance of each such Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, no Initial Interest Deposit Amount will be due and owing if (i) the initial Distribution Date does not occur in February or March, or (ii) if the initial Distribution Date occurs in February during a leap year.

In addition, on the Closing Date, if one or more Mortgage Loans is identified opposite the Seller’s name on Annex B to this Agreement (which Mortgage Loans do not have a Due Date in the month of the first Distribution Date), the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer or the Certificate Administrator (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), for deposit into the account set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on behalf of the Seller and for the benefit of the Trust Fund, the Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount with respect to each such Mortgage Loan, which Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount shall represent an amount equal to one-month’s interest accrued with respect to each such Mortgage Loan at the related Net Mortgage Rate for the month preceding the month of the first Distribution Date.

Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Note, the Seller’s interest in the related Mortgage represented by the Note and the other contents of the related Mortgage File (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) will be vested in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee, and the ownership of records and documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than those to be held by the holder of any related Companion Loan

  -2-  

 

that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) prepared by or which come into the possession of the Seller shall (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) immediately vest in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee. In connection with the transfer pursuant to this Section 1 of any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, the Seller does hereby assign to the Purchaser all of its rights, title and interest (solely in its capacity as the holder of the subject Mortgage Loan) in, to and under the related Co-Lender Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the Seller does not assign any right, title or interest that it or any other party may have thereunder in its capacity as the holder of any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). The Seller’s assignment of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement.

The Purchaser will sell: (i) the Public Certificates to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Underwriters; (ii) the Private Certificates to the Initial Purchasers (the Initial Purchasers, collectively with the Underwriters, are referred to herein as the “Dealers”) specified in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Initial Purchasers; and (iii) if applicable, any classes of Loan-Specific Certificates pursuant to a related purchase agreement between the Purchaser and any applicable Loan-Specific Initial Purchasers identified therein.

The sale and conveyance of the Mortgage Loans is being conducted on an arms-length basis and upon commercially reasonable terms. As the consideration for the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser shall: (i) pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Seller or at the Seller’s direction that sum set forth in the funding schedule executed by the Seller and the Purchaser relating to the sale of the Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby (but subject to certain post-settlement adjustments for expenses incurred by the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Depositor and for which the Seller is specifically responsible); and (ii) if the Seller is listed on Annex C to this Agreement, cause any Uncertificated Interests or Class VRR Certificates identified on Annex C hereto opposite the Seller’s name to be registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in the name of the Seller.

The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2        Books and Records; Certain Funds Received After the Cut-Off Date. From and after the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, record title to each Mortgage (other than with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Note shall be transferred to the Trustee subject to and in accordance with this Agreement. Any funds due after the Cut-Off Date in connection with a Mortgage Loan received by the Seller shall be held in trust on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders) as the owner of such Mortgage Loan and shall be transferred promptly to the Certificate Administrator. All scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date but collected after the Cut-Off Date, and all recoveries and payments of principal and interest collected on or before the Cut-Off Date (only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-Off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall belong to, and shall be promptly remitted to, the Seller.

  -3-  

 

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Seller’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the sale of such Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser. The Seller intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser as a sale for tax purposes. Following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser, the Seller shall not take any actions inconsistent with the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser and its assignees.

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Purchaser’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the purchase of such Mortgage Loan by the Purchaser from the Seller. The Purchaser intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the Seller as a purchase for tax purposes. The Purchaser shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a set of records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the transfer of ownership of each Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Seller will receive the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 3        Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Additional Costs and Expenses. (a) The Purchaser hereby directs the Seller, and the Seller hereby agrees, such agreement effective upon the transfer of the Mortgage Loans as contemplated herein, to deliver to and deposit with (or to cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Custodian (on behalf of the Trustee), with copies (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to be delivered to the Master Servicer, on the dates set forth in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered by the Purchaser, or contemplated to be delivered by the Seller (whether at the direction of the Purchaser or otherwise), to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, with respect to the Mortgage Loans under Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and meeting all the requirements of such Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

With respect to letters of credit (exclusive of those relating to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer, and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall require the Master Servicer to hold, the original (or copy, if such original has been submitted by the Seller to the issuing bank to effect an assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer) for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, to the extent required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents)) and the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied any such delivery requirements by delivering with respect to any letter(s) of credit a copy thereof to the Custodian together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller certifying that such document has been delivered to the Master Servicer or an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that it holds the letter(s) of credit pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If a letter of credit

  -4-  

 

referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents, the Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Master Servicer within 90 days of the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(b)               Except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall deliver to and deposit with (or cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date: (i) a copy of the Mortgage File; (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan(s), (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any related asset summaries that were delivered to the Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Certificates, material notices related to tenant leases, and any related operating statements, financial statements, appraisals or similar reports) or any related Serviced Companion Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans or holders of interests therein, and (C) are in the possession or under the control of the Seller; and (iii) all unapplied Escrow Payments and reserve funds in the possession or under control of the Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans together with a statement indicating which Escrow Payments and reserve funds are allocable to each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3(b) shall not apply to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by any Mortgaged Property that is subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any such related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Seller or its designee shall, within 45 days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor for the transfer or assignment of such comfort letter or issuance of a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), with a copy of such notice or request to the Custodian (who shall include such document

  -5-  

 

in the related Mortgage File) and the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, deliver the original of such replacement comfort letter, new document or acknowledgement, as applicable, to the Custodian for inclusion in the Mortgage File.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver Mortgage Note(s) to the Custodian shall be limited to delivery to the Custodian of only the Mortgage Note(s) held by such Applicable Co-sponsor. With respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver the remaining portion of the related Mortgage File or any remaining document required to be delivered with respect thereto shall be joint and several, provided that any one of the Applicable Co-sponsors may deliver one Mortgage File (exclusive of the related Mortgage Notes) or one of any other remaining document required to be delivered with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan hereunder and under the mortgage loan purchase agreement(s) between the Purchaser and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s), and such delivery shall satisfy the corresponding delivery requirements for both the Seller and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s).

(e)               Upon written request from the Special Servicer, the Seller shall deliver a power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement to the Special Servicer, that permits the Special Servicer to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement actions by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 4        Treatment as a Security Agreement. Pursuant to Section 1 hereof, the Seller has conveyed to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the parties also intend and agree that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and in such event does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal or interest on such Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-Off Date, all other payments made in respect of such Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date) and all proceeds thereof, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser hypothecating and transferring such security interest in favor of the Trustee and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Trustee.

SECTION 5        Covenants of the Seller. The Seller covenants with the Purchaser as follows:

(a)               with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), it shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file, in

All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the recordation or filing of such assignments of Assignment of Leases, assignments of Mortgage and financing statements shall be paid by (or caused to be paid by) the Seller. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and the Seller shall record or file, or cause the recording or filing of, such substitute or corrected document or instrument, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to such third party (or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan);

(b)               as to each Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the Seller cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, it shall forward to the Custodian a copy of the original certified by the Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording. The Seller shall cause each assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above to reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the Seller or its designee, in which case the Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof;

(c)               except for actions that are the express responsibility of another party hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer, including effectuating the transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and any Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(e)               if (during the period of time that the Underwriters are required, under applicable law, to deliver a prospectus related to the Public Certificates in connection with sales of the Public Certificates by an Underwriter or a dealer) the Seller has obtained actual knowledge of undisclosed or corrected information related to an event that occurred prior to the Closing Date, which event causes there to be an untrue statement of a material fact with respect to the Seller Information (as such term is defined in the Indemnification Agreement) in the Prospectus, the Offering Circular or any Loan-Specific Offering Circular (the Prospectus, the Offering Circular and any Loan-Specific Offering Circular are collectively referred to herein as the “Offering Documents”), or causes there to be an omission to state therein a material fact with respect to the Seller Information required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein with respect to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Seller shall promptly notify the Dealers and the Depositor. If as a result of any such event the Dealers’ legal counsel determines that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Documents in order to correct the untrue statement, or to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or to make the Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to the Seller Information) at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Dealers, such amendments or supplements to the Offering Documents as may be necessary so that the Seller Information in the Offering Documents, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law. (All capitalized terms used in this Section 5(e) and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date for the Certificates, between, among others, the Dealers, the Seller and the Depositor (the “Indemnification Agreement” and, together with this Agreement, the “Operative Documents”).) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall have no affirmative obligation to monitor the performance of the Mortgage Loans or any changes in condition or circumstance of any Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor, guarantor or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date in connection with its obligations under this Section 5(e);

(f)                for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Seller shall: (1) provide the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and any Form 8-K Disclosure Information for which the Seller is responsible as indicated on Exhibit U, Exhibit V and Exhibit Z to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that, in connection with providing Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and the Seller’s reporting obligations under Item 1119 of Regulation AB, upon reasonable request by the Seller, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a list of all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any other Servicing Function Participant; and (2) reasonably cooperate with each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, upon the reasonable request of such party, by providing all Mortgage Loan related documents, data and information in the possession of the Seller at or prior to the Closing Date and on the date of such request and necessary for the ongoing compliance by the Depositor and the Trust with the requirements of Form 10-D with respect to Items 1111 and 1125 of Regulation AB; provided, that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the

(h)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Depositor (with a copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) with a certification by an authorized officer of the Seller, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, that the electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan uploaded to the Designated Site contains all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor, which such certification or copies thereof may be sent via email;

(i)                 upon written request of the Asset Representations Reviewer (in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for a Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan), the Seller shall provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written request (which time period may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the Seller and the Asset Representations Reviewer), such documents requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer and in the possession of the Seller relating to each such Delinquent Loan to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete any Test for each such Delinquent Loan, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(j)                 upon the completion of an Asset Review with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan and receipt by the Seller of a written invoice from the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Seller shall pay to the Asset Representations Reviewer, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such written invoice, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to such Delinquent Loan as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to adjustment with respect to any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan(s), as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(k)               if the Preliminary Asset Review Report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the Seller shall have 90 days

  -9-  

 

from receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report. If the Seller elects to refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report, the Seller shall provide to the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test;

(l)                 the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event an Enforcing Party elects a dispute resolution method pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Seller shall abide by the selected dispute resolution method and otherwise comply with the terms and provisions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) related to the resolution method;

(m)             the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages and other liabilities, including without limitation the costs of investigation, legal defense and any amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation arising out of or based upon (i) any failure of the Seller to pay the fees described under Section 5(j) above within 90 days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) any failure by the Seller to provide all documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to Sections 5(g) and 5(i) of this Agreement and under the definition of “Diligence File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within 60 days of the Closing Date (or such later date specified herein or in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); and

(n)               with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is (or may become pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement) part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan, (x) in the event that the Closing Date occurs on or prior to the closing date of the related Outside Securitization Trust (such event, the “Outside Securitization”), the Seller shall provide (or cause to be provided) to the Depositor (and counsel thereto) and the Certificate Administrator (i) written notice in a timely manner of (but no later than three (3) Business Days prior to) the closing date of such Outside Securitization, and (ii) no later than one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization, a copy of the Outside Servicing Agreement in an EDGAR-compatible format, and (y) in the event that the Closing Date occurs after the closing date of the Outside Securitization, the Seller shall provide, or cause the Outside Depositor to provide, the Depositor (and counsel thereto) with a copy of the related Outside Servicing Agreement (together with any amendments thereto) in an EDGAR-compatible format by the later of (i) two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and (ii) one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization.

  -13-  

 

Purchaser receives a Repurchase Request, then such party is required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller.

(e)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Enforcing Servicer is required to determine whether any such Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan materially and adversely affects, or such Document Defect is deemed in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to materially and adversely affect, the value of the Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or the interests of the Trustee or any Certificateholder in the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or causes any Mortgage Loan to fail to be a Qualified Mortgage (any such Document Defect shall constitute a “Material Document Defect” and any such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach”; and a Material Breach and/or a Material Document Defect, as the case may be, shall constitute a “Material Defect”). If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect, then the Enforcing Servicer will be required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller, demanding that the Seller cure such Material Defect. Promptly upon becoming aware of any such Material Defect (including, without limitation, through a written notice given by any party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as provided above if the Document Defect or Breach identified therein is a Material Defect), the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the Seller’s (x) discovery of, and (y) receipt of notice of and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to such Material Defect (or, in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days from any party discovering such Material Defect), cure the same in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of any losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses associated therewith (including, if applicable, the amount of any fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer payable pursuant to Section 5(j) above attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan)) or, if such Material Defect cannot be cured within such 90-day period, the Seller shall (before the end of such 90-day period) either: (i) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property (or the Trust Fund’s interest therein) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account; or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date and in no event shall any such substitution be effected with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) and pay the Master Servicer, for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith; provided, that the Seller may not repurchase any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan without repurchasing its Mortgage Loan that is part of the same Whole Loan (so long as there is a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan); and provided, further, however, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such 90-day period, then the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure (or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as described above) it being understood and agreed that, in connection with the Seller’s receiving such additional 90-day period, the Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day period and what actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the Seller anticipates that such Material Defect

  -14-  

 

will be cured within such additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the initial 90-day period and any such additional 90-day period solely due to the failure of the Seller to have received the recorded document, then the Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect so long as the Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator every 30 days thereafter that the Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date. Any such repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. The Seller shall have no obligation to monitor the Mortgage Loans regarding the existence of a Breach or a Document Defect, but if the Seller discovers a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, it will notify the Purchaser. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-Off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and shall be required, under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller promptly following receipt. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. No mortgage loan may be substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Section 6(e) if the Mortgage Loan to be replaced was itself a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that had replaced a prior Mortgage Loan, in which case, absent a cure (including by the making of a Loss of Value Payment pursuant to the following paragraph) of the relevant Material Defect, the affected Mortgage Loan will be required to be repurchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), in lieu of the Seller performing its obligations with respect to any Material Defect as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to the extent that the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer (subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder or, in the case of any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative so long as it is the applicable Directing Holder) as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, are able to agree upon a cash payment payable by the Seller to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, that would be deemed sufficient to compensate the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, for a Material Defect (a “Loss of Value Payment”), the Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such Loss of Value Payment to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable; provided that a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage, may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment; and provided, further, that the Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Loss of Value Payment relates to a Co-sponsored

  -15-  

 

Mortgage Loan, the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement). Upon its making a Loss of Value Payment, the Seller shall be deemed to have cured the subject Material Defect in all respects. Provided that such Loss of Value Payment is made, this paragraph describes the sole remedy available to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, and its assignees regarding any such Material Defect, and the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase or replace the affected Mortgage Loan or otherwise cure such Material Defect. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, provided that, prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Seller or the Enforcing Servicer, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and within the time frames set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this Section 6(e) (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan).

If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as described above (a “Defective Mortgage Loan”), (y) such Defective Mortgage Loan is part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and (z) the applicable Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Material Defect as to the other Mortgage Loan(s) that are a part of such Cross-Collateralized Group (the “Other Crossed Loans”) (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Document Defect or Breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to each such Other Crossed Loan for purposes of the above provisions, and the Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such Other Crossed Loan in accordance with the provisions above unless, in the case of such Breach or Document Defect, as applicable:

(A) the Seller (at its expense) delivers or causes to be delivered to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Seller’s repurchase or replacement of only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Defect has actually occurred without regard to the provisions of this paragraph (the “Affected Loan(s)”) and the operation of the remaining provisions of this Section 6(e) (i) will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Certificate is outstanding and (ii) will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code); and

(B)  each of the following conditions would be satisfied if the Seller were to repurchase or replace only the Affected Loans and not the Other Crossed Loans:

(1)   the debt service coverage ratio for such Other Crossed Loan(s) (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not less than the lesser of (A) 0.10x below the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus and (B) the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-

Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) for the four preceding calendar quarters preceding the repurchase or replacement;

(2)   the loan-to-value ratio for the Other Crossed Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the greatest of (A) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus plus 10%, (B) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) at the time of repurchase or replacement and (C) 75%; and

(3)   either (x) the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group will not impair the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group or (y) the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans have been modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that removes any threat of impairment of the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group as a result of the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group.

The determination of the Enforcing Servicer as to whether the conditions set forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error on the Certificateholders, other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Seller. The Enforcing Servicer will be entitled to cause to be delivered, or direct the Seller to (in which case the Seller shall) cause to be delivered, to the Enforcing Servicer an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause (B)(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the Seller if the scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the Seller and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in each case).

With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan that forms a part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and as to which the conditions described in the second preceding paragraph are satisfied, such that the Trust Fund will continue to hold the Other Crossed Loans, the Seller and the Depositor agree to forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each is permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan(s) still held by the Trust Fund. If the exercise of remedies by one such party would impair the ability of the other such party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan or the Other Crossed Loans, as the case may be, held by the other such party, then both parties shall forbear from exercising such remedies unless and until the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans can be modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment as a result of the

  -17-  

 

exercise of remedies. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing any of the Mortgage Loans that form a Cross-Collateralized Group shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Loan Documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. All other terms of the Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect, without any modification thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall be binding on all future holders of each Mortgage Loan that forms part of a Cross-Collateralized Group.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that, to the extent necessary and appropriate, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will execute (pursuant to a limited power of attorney provided by the Trustee who will not be liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any of its agents or subcontractors) the modification of the Loan Documents that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment of the ability of the Seller or the Trust Fund to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loan(s) held by such party resulting from the exercise of remedies by the other such party. All costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer with respect to any Cross-Collateralized Group pursuant to this paragraph and the first, second and third preceding paragraphs shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as provided for in Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and such advances and interest thereon shall be included in the calculation of Purchase Price for the Affected Loan(s) to be repurchased or replaced.

Subject to the Seller’s right to cure set forth above in this Section 6(e), and further subject to Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, failure of the Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8) and (18) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except such deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

If there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties securing a Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase such Mortgage Loan if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property(ies) are, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the related Loan Documents and the Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such

  -18-  

 

release would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

With respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees that if a “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) exists under the related Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan included in the related Outside Securitization Trust, and such Outside Serviced Companion Loan is repurchased by or on behalf of such Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) from the related Outside Securitization Trust as a result of such “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in such Outside Servicing Agreement), then the Seller shall repurchase such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) related solely to the promissory note for such Outside Serviced Companion Loan.

(f)                In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or more Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the repurchasing entity evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File (including, without limitation, the Servicing File) and other documents and all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the repurchasing or substituting entity or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and reconveyance of the Mortgage Loan and the security therefor to the Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. In the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan by the Seller as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian the related Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of any deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) and deliver or cause the delivery of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Upon any substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall become part of the Trust Fund and be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

(g)               The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Notes or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files.

(h)               Each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other party upon discovery of any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement. The Seller’s obligation to cure any Material Defect or to repurchase, or substitute for, or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to, any affected Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a breach of any of the Seller’s representations or warranties contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement or a Document Defect with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(i)                 The Seller shall promptly notify the Depositor if (i) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request (other than from the Depositor), (ii) the Seller repurchases or replaces a Mortgage Loan, (iii) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal (other than from the Depositor) or (iv) the Seller rejects or disputes any Repurchase Request. Each such notice shall be given no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after (A) with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding sentence, receipt of a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, as applicable, and (B) with respect to clauses (ii) and (iv) of the preceding sentence, the occurrence of the event giving rise to the requirement for such notice, and shall include (1) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan and the person making the Repurchase Request, (2) the date (x) such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal was received, (y) the related Mortgage Loan was repurchased or replaced or (z) the Repurchase Request was rejected or disputed, as applicable, and (3) if known, the basis for (x) the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) or (y) any rejection or dispute of a Repurchase Request, as applicable.

The Seller shall provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator the Seller’s “Central Index Key” number assigned by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and a true, correct and complete copy of the relevant portions of any Form ABS-15G that the Seller is required to file with the Commission under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Mortgage Loans, on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days before the date such Form ABS-15G is required to be filed with the Commission.

In addition, the Seller shall provide the Depositor, upon request, such other information in its possession as would permit the Depositor to comply with its obligations under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act to disclose fulfilled and unfulfilled repurchase requests. Any such information requested shall be provided as promptly as practicable after such request is made.

The Seller agrees that no Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider will be required to provide information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice that is protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. In addition, the Seller hereby acknowledges that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is so provided only to assist the Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law

  -20-  

 

or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to this Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.

Each party hereto agrees that the receipt of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice or the delivery of any notice required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6(i) shall not, in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of, receipt of notice of, or knowledge of the Seller of, any Material Defect.

Each party hereto agrees and acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, the “Central Index Key” number of the Trust Fund is 0002016125.

“Repurchase Communication” means, for purposes of this Section 6(i) only, any communication, whether oral or written, which need not be in any specific form.

(j)                 The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that it and the Purchaser have engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ernst & Young LLP (the “Accounting Firms”) to perform “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans and to prepare one or more “third-party due diligence reports” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act) (collectively, the “Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report”) in connection therewith. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Depositor that, except with respect to the Accounting Firms and the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report, the Seller, as of the Closing Date, (A) has not obtained any “third-party due diligence report” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act), and (B) has not retained any third party to engage in, and will not retain any third party to engage in, any activity that constitutes “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans, unless, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (B) and following the Closing Date, the Seller (i) provides prior written notice to the Depositor, (ii) requires the third-party due diligence provider to comply with its obligations under Section 15E(s)(4)(B) of, and Rule 17g-10 under, the Exchange Act (including with respect to the timely delivery to any applicable NRSRO and to the Depositor of a Form ABS Due Diligence-15E), and (iii) facilitates the Depositor’s compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3)(iii)(E) under the Exchange Act, with respect thereto. The Seller further represents and warrants that no portion of the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report contains, with respect to the information contained therein with respect to the Mortgage Loans, any names, addresses, other personal identifiers or zip codes with respect to any individuals, or any other personally identifiable or other information that would be associated with an individual, including without limitation any “nonpublic personal information” within the meaning of Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. The Underwriters and Initial Purchasers are third-party beneficiaries of the provisions set forth in this Section 6(j).

(k)               The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is not the Purchaser), the related Outside Servicing Agreement contains, or at the time such Outside Servicing Agreement is executed and delivered will contain, terms and provisions (or, to the extent

  -21-  

 

specified on Exhibit E to this Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement contains terms and provisions (and, to the extent contained in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the applicable documents provide that such terms and provisions are deemed included by reference into the related Outside Servicing Agreement)) that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement. The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is the Purchaser), the related Co-Lender Agreement does not contain any terms or provisions that conflict with (or that will conflict with) any terms or provisions in the related Outside Servicing Agreement that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement.

SECTION 7        Review of Mortgage File. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Custodian will be required to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and if it finds any document or documents not to have been properly executed, or to be missing or to be defective on its face in any material respect, to notify the Purchaser, which shall promptly notify the Seller.

SECTION 8        Conditions to Closing. The obligation of the Seller to sell the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the Seller having received the consideration for the Mortgage Loans as contemplated by Section 1 of this Agreement. The obligations of the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the satisfaction, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the following conditions:

EXHIBIT B

MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

(1) Whole Loan; Ownership of Mortgage Loans. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a Mortgage Loan. Each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is a senior or pari passu portion of a whole loan evidenced by a senior or pari passu Mortgage Note. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to the Purchaser, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller), participation or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment, or similar agreement, any Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to a an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan and rights of the holder of a related Companion Loan pursuant to a Co-Lender Agreement. The Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Mortgage Loan, and the assignment to the Purchaser constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of each such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering each such Mortgage Loan other than the rights of the holder of a related Companion Loan pursuant to a Co-Lender Agreement.

(2) Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, assignment of leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Mortgage Loan documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment/yield maintenance fees, charges and/or premiums) are, or may be, further limited or rendered unenforceable by or under applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Mortgage Loan documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the Mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Mortgage Loan documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by the Seller in connection with the origination of any Mortgage Loan,

Exhibit B-1

that would deny the Mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents.

(3) Mortgage Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the related Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

(4) Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except by written instruments set forth in the related Mortgage File or as otherwise provided in the related Mortgage Loan documents (a)(1) there has been no forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such forbearance, waiver or modification relates to the COVID-19 emergency, (2) as of the Cut-off Date, to the knowledge of the Seller, there has been no written request from the related Mortgagor for a forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such request relates to the COVID-19 emergency and (3) other than as related to the COVID-19 emergency, the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Mortgage Loan guaranty and related Mortgage Loan documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the related Mortgagor nor the related guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the related Mortgage Loan. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, except as contained in a written document included in the related Mortgage File, there have been no modifications, amendments or waivers that could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on such Mortgage Loan that have been consented to by the Seller on or after the Cut-off Date.

(5) Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each assignment of Mortgage and assignment of assignment of leases to the issuing entity (or, with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Outside Trustee) constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment to the Trust (or, with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the related Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage and assignment of leases is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee (or if identified on the Schedule, leasehold) interest in the related Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such Mortgage Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below) and the exceptions to paragraph (6) set forth on Exhibit C (each such exception, a “Title Exception”)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to and excepting Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions) as of origination was, and as of the Cut-off Date, to the Seller’s knowledge, is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ liens, recorded materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances which are prior to or equal with the

Exhibit B-2

lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below), and, to the Seller’s knowledge and subject to the rights of tenants (as tenants only) (subject to and excepting Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions), no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below). Notwithstanding anything in this representation to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) financing statements is required in order to effect such perfection.

(6) Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy with escrow instructions or a “marked up” commitment, in each case binding on the title insurer) (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage, which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments due and payable but not yet delinquent; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property and condominium declarations; (f) if the related Mortgage Loan constitutes a cross-collateralized Mortgage Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for another Mortgage Loan contained in the same Crossed Group; and (g) if the related Mortgage Loan is part of a Whole Loan, the rights of the holder(s) of any related Companion Loan(s) pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement; provided that none of items (a) through (g), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or current use of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). Except as contemplated by clauses (f) and (g) of the preceding sentence, none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of a Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy.

Exhibit B-3

(7) Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Mortgage Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Crossed Mortgage Loan, there are no subordinate mortgages or junior liens securing the payment of money encumbering the related Mortgaged Property (other than Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions, taxes and assessments, mechanics and materialmen’s liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (5) above), and equipment and other personal property financing). Except as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B, the Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor.

(8) Assignment of Leases and Rents. There exists as part of the related Mortgage File an assignment of leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions, each related assignment of leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related assignment of leases, subject to applicable law, provides that, upon an event of default under each Mortgage Loan, a receiver is permitted to be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related Mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the Mortgagee.

(9) UCC Filings. If the related Mortgaged Property is operated as a hospitality property, the Seller has filed and/or recorded or caused to be filed and/or recorded (or, if not filed and/or recorded, submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording), UCC financing statements in the appropriate public filing and/or recording offices necessary at the time of the origination of the related Mortgage Loan to perfect a valid security interest in all items of physical personal property reasonably necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property owned by such Mortgagor and located on the related Mortgaged Property (other than any non-material personal property, any personal property subject to a purchase money security interest, a sale and leaseback financing arrangement as permitted under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents or any other personal property leases applicable to such personal property), to the extent perfection may be effected pursuant to applicable law by recording or filing, as the case may be. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each related Mortgage (or equivalent document) creates a valid and enforceable lien and security interest on the items of personalty described above. No representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of UCC financing statements are required in order to effect such perfection.

(10) Condition of Property. The Seller or the originator of each Mortgage Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six months of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and within thirteen months of the Cut-off Date.

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan no more than thirteen months prior to the Cut-off

Exhibit B-4

Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the Closing Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan.

(11) Taxes and Assessments. All taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges), or installments thereof, which could be a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that would be of equal or superior priority to the lien of the Mortgage and that prior to the Cut-off Date have become delinquent in respect of each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to cover such payments and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real estate taxes and governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges and installments thereof will not be considered delinquent until the earlier of (a) the date on which interest and/or penalties would first be payable thereon and (b) the date on which enforcement action is entitled to be taken by the related taxing authority.

(12) Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-off Date, there is no proceeding pending, and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the date of origination and as of the Cut-off Date, there is no proceeding threatened, for the total or partial condemnation of any Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of such Mortgaged Property.

(13) Actions Concerning Mortgage Loan. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-off Date, there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the related Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to such Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Mortgage Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the related Mortgage Loan documents or (f) the current principal use of such Mortgaged Property.

(14) Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and payments required to be escrowed with the Mortgagee pursuant to each Mortgage Loan are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no deficiencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required to be escrowed with the related Mortgagee under the related Mortgage Loan documents are being conveyed by the Seller to the Purchaser or its servicer.

(15) No Holdbacks. The principal amount of each Mortgage Loan stated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule has been fully disbursed as of the Closing Date and there is no requirement for

Exhibit B-5

future advances thereunder (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by the Seller to merit such holdback).

(16) Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents and meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (as defined below), in an amount (subject to a customary deductible) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the related Mortgagor and included in such Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

“Insurance Rating Requirements” means either (i) a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” from S&P Global Ratings or (ii) the Syndicate Insurance Rating Requirements. “Syndicate Insurance Rating Requirements” means insurance provided by a syndicate of insurers, as to which (i) if such syndicate consists of 5 or more members, at least 60% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Rating Requirements (under clause (i) of the definition of such term) and up to 40% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC or at least “Baa3” by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., and (ii) if such syndicate consists of 4 or fewer members, at least 75% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Rating Requirements (under clause (i) of the definition of such term) and up to 25% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC or at least “Baa3” by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with respect to each Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a “Special Flood Hazard Area,” the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in the maximum amount available under the National Flood

Exhibit B-6

Insurance Program, (irrespective of whether such coverage is provided pursuant to a National Flood Insurance Program policy or through a private policy), plus such additional flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by the Seller for comparable mortgage loans intended for securitization.

If a Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (2) 100% of the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements and personalty and fixtures included in the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements.

Each Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each Mortgaged Property located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the structural and seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the scenario expected limit (“SEL”) for the related Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the SEL was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the SEL would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained from an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by S&P Global Ratings in an amount not less than 100% of the SEL.

The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan require insurance proceeds in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the original or then outstanding principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan), the Mortgagee (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section required to be paid as of the Cut-off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the Mortgagee under each Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a Mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or

Exhibit B-7

additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the Trustee (or, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain (or cause to be maintained) all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the Mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s reasonable cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by the Seller.

(17) Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Lots. Each Mortgaged Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has access via an irrevocable easement or irrevocable right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has uninhibited access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and all required utilities, all of which are appropriate for the current use of such Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been, or will be, made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax lots, in which case the related Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which such Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax lots are created.

(18) No Encroachments. To the Seller’s knowledge based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the Mortgagee’s Title Policy (or, if such policy is not yet issued, a pro forma title policy, a preliminary title policy with escrow instructions or a “marked up” commitment) obtained in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan, all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy. No improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy. No improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments the removal of which would not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy.

(19) No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Mortgage Loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest

Exhibit B-8

in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date) or an equity participation by the Seller.

(20) REMIC. Each Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Mortgage Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and (B) either: (a) such Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including permanently affixed buildings and structural components, such as wiring, plumbing systems and central heating and air conditioning systems, that are integrated into such buildings, serve such buildings in their passive functions and do not produce or contribute to the production of income other than consideration for the use or occupancy of space, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan) was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan) on such date or (ii) at the Closing Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan) on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Closing Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Mortgage Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Mortgage Loan will not be considered “significantly modified” solely by reason of the borrower having been granted a COVID-19 related forbearance, provided that: (a) such Mortgage Loan forbearance is covered by Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12) by reason of satisfying the requirements for such coverage stated in Section 5.02(2) of Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12); and (b) the Seller identifies such Mortgage Loan and provides (x) the date on which such forbearance was granted, (y) the length in months of the forbearance, and (z) how the payments in forbearance will be paid (that is, by extension of maturity, change of amortization schedule, etc.). Any prepayment premium and yield maintenance charges applicable to the Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph will have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

(21) Compliance with Usury Laws. The Mortgage Rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge, or prepayment premiums) of each Mortgage Loan

Exhibit B-9

complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(22) Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Cut-off Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to originate, acquire and/or hold (as applicable) the Mortgage Note in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Mortgage Loan by the Trust.

(23) Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related Mortgagee.

(24) Local Law Compliance. To the Seller’s knowledge, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, there are no material violations of applicable zoning ordinances, building codes and land laws (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) with respect to the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan as of the date of origination of such Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan, as applicable) and as of the Cut-off Date, other than those which (i) are insured by the Title Policy or a law and ordinance insurance policy or (ii) would not have a material adverse effect on the value, operation or net operating income of the related Mortgaged Property. The terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents require the Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable governmental regulations, zoning and building laws.

(25) Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the related Mortgage Loan documents that it will keep all material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations necessary for its operation of the related Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the Seller’s knowledge based upon any of a letter from any government authorities or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, all such material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations are in effect. Each Mortgage Loan requires the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

(26) Recourse Obligations. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan provide that such Mortgage Loan (a) becomes full recourse to the related Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be

Exhibit B-10

affiliated with the Mortgagor) that has assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis) in any of the following events: (i) if any voluntary petition for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, will be filed by the related Mortgagor; (ii) the related Mortgagor or guarantor will have colluded with (or, alternatively, solicited or caused to be solicited) other creditors to cause an involuntary bankruptcy filing with respect to such Mortgagor or (iii) voluntary transfers of either the Mortgaged Property or equity interests in the Mortgagor made in violation of the related Mortgage Loan documents; and (b) contains provisions providing for recourse against the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that has assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis), for losses and damages sustained by reason of such Mortgagor’s (i) misappropriation of rents after the occurrence of an event of default under the related Mortgage Loan; (ii) misappropriation of (A) insurance proceeds or condemnation awards or (B) security deposits or, alternatively, the failure of any security deposits to be delivered to the Mortgagee upon foreclosure or action in lieu thereof (except to the extent applied in accordance with leases prior to a Mortgage Loan event of default); (iii) fraud or intentional material misrepresentation; (iv) breaches of the environmental covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents; or (v) commission of intentional material physical waste at the related Mortgaged Property (but, in some cases, only to the extent there is sufficient cash flow generated by the related Mortgaged Property to prevent such waste).

(27) Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Mortgage Loan documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the related Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial Defeasance (as defined in paragraph (32)), in each case, of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance (as defined in (32) below), (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the related Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of such Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation or taking by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof. With respect to any partial release (including in connection with any partial Defeasance) under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations and (ii) would not cause the subject Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(3)(A); or (y) the Mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), for all Mortgage Loans originated after

Exhibit B-11

December 6, 2010, if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the lien of the Mortgage Loan) after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan) outstanding after the release, the related Mortgagor is required to make a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC provisions of the Code.

With respect to any partial release under the preceding clause (e), for all Mortgage Loans originated after December 6, 2010, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC provisions of the Code and, to such extent, such amount may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the lien of the Mortgage Loan) is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (or related Whole Loan).

No Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is a Crossed Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties or a portion thereof, including due to partial condemnation, other than in compliance with the REMIC provisions of the Code.

(28) Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan require the related Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage with quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, and quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls for properties that have leases contributing more than 5% of the in-place base rent and annual financial statements, which annual financial statements with respect to each Mortgage Loan with more than one Mortgagor are in the form of an annual combined balance sheet of the Mortgagor entities (and no other entities), together with the related combined statements of operations, members’ capital and cash flows, including a combining balance sheet and statement of income for the Mortgaged Properties on a combined basis.

(29) Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Mortgage Loan over $20 million, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2019 (collectively referred to as “TRIA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each other Mortgage Loan, the related special all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) did not, as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan,

Exhibit B-12

and, to the Seller’s knowledge, do not, as of the Cut-off Date, specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the Mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, or damages related thereto; provided, however, that if TRIA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then, provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Mortgage Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor will not be required to spend more than the Terrorism Cap Amount on terrorism insurance coverage, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds the Terrorism Cap Amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to the Terrorism Cap Amount. The “Terrorism Cap Amount” is the specified percentage (which is at least equal to 200%) of the amount of the insurance premium that is payable at such time in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Mortgage Loan documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance).

(30) Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Mortgage Loan contains a “due on sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the Mortgagee which are customarily acceptable to prudent commercial and multifamily mortgage lending institutions lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Mortgage Loan documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold, other than as related to (i) family and estate planning transfers or transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (iii) transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in the related Mortgagor, (iv) transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Mortgage Loan documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Mortgage Loan documents, such as a qualified equityholder, (v) transfers of stock or similar equity units in publicly traded companies, (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraphs (27) and (32) in this Exhibit B or the exceptions thereto set forth on Exhibit C, or (vii) any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-1 or future permitted mezzanine debt as set forth on Schedule B-2 or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan of any Mortgage Loan or any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (ii) purchase money security interests, (iii) any Crossed Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and

Exhibit B-13

cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan, as set forth on Schedule B-3 or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents provide that to the extent any Rating Agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the related Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

(31) Single-Purpose Entity. Each Mortgage Loan requires the related Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the related Mortgage Loan is outstanding. Both the Mortgage Loan documents and the organizational documents of the Mortgagor with respect to each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-off Date Balance in excess of $5 million provide that such Mortgagor is a Single-Purpose Entity, and each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-off Date Balance of $20 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-consolidation of the related Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” means an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents (or if the Mortgage Loan has a Cut-off Date Balance equal to $5 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Mortgage Loan documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties securing the Mortgage Loans and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Mortgage Loan documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Mortgage Loan documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Crossed Mortgage Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

(32) Defeasance. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that, pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, can be defeased (a “Defeasance”), (i) the Mortgage Loan documents provide for defeasance as a unilateral right of the Mortgagor, subject to satisfaction of conditions specified in the Mortgage Loan documents; (ii) such Mortgage Loan cannot be defeased within two years after the Closing Date; (iii) the Mortgagor is permitted to pledge only United States “government securities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), the revenues from which will, in the case of a full Defeasance, be sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Loan when due, including the entire remaining principal balance on the maturity date or, if the Mortgage Loan is an ARD Mortgage Loan, the entire principal balance outstanding on the related Anticipated Repayment Date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment penalty), and if the Mortgage Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (a) 110% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and (b) the outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan; (iv) the Mortgagor is required to provide a certification from an independent certified public accountant that the

Exhibit B-14

collateral is sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note as set forth in clause (iii) above; (v) if the Mortgagor would continue to own assets in addition to the defeasance collateral, the portion of the Mortgage Loan secured by defeasance collateral is required to be assumed (or the Mortgagee may require such assumption) by a Single-Purpose Entity; (vi) the Mortgagor is required to provide an opinion of counsel that the Mortgagee has a perfected security interest in such collateral prior to any other claim or interest; and (vii) the Mortgagor is required to pay all rating agency fees associated with defeasance (if rating confirmation is a specific condition precedent thereto) and all other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with defeasance, including, but not limited to, accountant’s fees and opinions of counsel.

(33) Fixed Interest Rates. Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except in the case of any ARD Mortgage Loan and situations where default interest is imposed.

(34) Ground Leases. For purposes of this Exhibit B, a “Ground Lease” means a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner and does not include industrial development agency (IDA) or similar leases for purposes of conferring a tax abatement or other benefit.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a leasehold estate under a Ground Lease in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of the Seller, its successors and assigns, the Seller represents and warrants that:

(a) The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease or an estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor permits the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and does not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage. No material change in the terms of the Ground Lease had occurred since the origination of the Mortgage Loan, except as reflected in any written instruments which are included in the related Mortgage File;

(b) The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Mortgage File (or in such Ground Lease) that the Ground Lease may not be amended or modified, or canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee, without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee;

Exhibit B-15

(c) The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either Mortgagor or the Mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Mortgage Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Mortgage Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

(d) The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances or (ii) is subject to a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement to which the Mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest in the Mortgaged Property is subject;

(e) The Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonably restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease), and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of (but with prior notice to) the lessor;

(f) The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Closing Date;

(g) The Ground Lease or ancillary agreement between the lessor and the lessee requires the lessor to give to the Mortgagee written notice of any default, and provides that no notice of default or termination is effective against the Mortgagee unless such notice is given to the Mortgagee;

(h) The Mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the Mortgagee’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i) The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by a prudent commercial mortgage lender;

(j) Under the terms of the Ground Lease, an estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s

Exhibit B-16

interest (other than (i) de minimis amounts for minor casualties or (ii) in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in clause (k) below) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents) the Mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest;

(k) In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease, an estoppel or other agreement and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l) Provided that the Mortgagee cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with the Mortgagee upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

(35) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loans have been, in all respects, legal and have met customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for conduit loan programs.

(36) Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Mortgage Loan (or the related Whole Loan, as applicable) and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Exhibit B.

(37) No Material Default; Payment Record. No Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required debt service payments since origination, and no Mortgage Loan is more than 30 days delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments as of the Closing Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under any Mortgage Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property,

Exhibit B-17

provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Exhibit B (including, but not limited to, the prior sentence). No person other than the holder of any Mortgage Loan may declare any event of default under the related Mortgage Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under such Mortgage Loan documents.

(38) Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-off Date, neither the Mortgaged Property (other than any tenants of such Mortgaged Property), nor any portion thereof, is the subject of, and no Mortgagor, guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

(39) Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the related Mortgagor delivered by such Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan (or the related Whole Loan, as applicable), the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except with respect to any Crossed Mortgage Loan, no Mortgage Loan has a Mortgagor that is an affiliate of another Mortgagor under another Mortgage Loan.

(40) Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements were conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor, an “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable environmental laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related Mortgagee; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that, based on the ESA, can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated in all material respects prior to the Cut-off Date, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action or closure letter was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability

Exhibit B-18

insurance policy meeting the requirements set forth below that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than A- (or the equivalent) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P Global Ratings and/or Fitch Ratings, Inc.; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

(41) Appraisal. The Mortgage File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within 6 months of the Mortgage Loan origination date, and within 12 months of the Closing Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser who is a Member of the Appraisal Institute (“MAI”) and, to the Seller’s knowledge, had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation. Each appraisal contains a statement, or is accompanied by a letter from the appraiser, to the effect that the appraisal was performed in accordance with the requirements of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as in effect on the date such Mortgage Loan was originated.

(42) Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Mortgage Loan which is set forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule is true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-off Date and contains all information required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be contained on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.

(43) Cross-Collateralization. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan no Mortgage Loan is cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other mortgage loan that is outside the Mortgage Pool, except as set forth on Schedule B-3.

(44) Advance of Funds by the Seller. After origination, no advance of funds has been made by the Seller to the related Mortgagor other than in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents, and, to the Seller’s knowledge, no funds have been received from any person other than the related Mortgagor or an affiliate for, or on account of, payments due on the Mortgage Loan (other than as contemplated by the Mortgage Loan documents, such as, by way of example and not in limitation of the foregoing, amounts paid by the tenant(s) into a Mortgagee-controlled lockbox if required or contemplated under the related lease or Mortgage Loan documents).

This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of May 1, 2024, is between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as purchaser (the “Purchaser”), and LMF Commercial, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as seller (the “Seller”).

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Purchaser, as depositor (in such capacity, the “Depositor”), Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and as asset representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”), Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”) and as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), pursuant to which the Purchaser will transfer the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein), together with certain other commercial, multifamily and/or manufactured housing community mortgage loans (collectively, the “Other Loans”), to a trust fund (the “Trust Fund”). In exchange for the Mortgage Loans and the Other Loans, the Trust Fund will issue, to or at the direction of the Depositor, certificates to be known as BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4 (collectively, the “Certificates”), and any Uncertificated Interests (if applicable).

For purposes of this Agreement, “Mortgage Loans” refers to the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (including as reflected in any footnotes to such exhibit) and “Mortgaged Properties” refers to the properties securing such Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller is selling one or more Co-sponsored Mortgage Loans, each such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is identified on Annex A to this Agreement. A “Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan” is (i) part of an entire Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or part of a Whole Loan, (ii) comprised of 2 or more separate Notes being sold to the Purchaser by two or more separate sellers (also referred to as Applicable Co-sponsors) as identified on Annex A to this Agreement, and (iii) if such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is part of a Whole Loan, comprised of the entire portion of such Whole Loan that is being contributed to the Trust (i.e. there may be other Notes evidencing Companion Loans that are not contributed to the Trust). “Applicable Co-sponsor” means, as to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, each seller of the subject Notes to the Purchaser, as identified on Annex A to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, although the term “Mortgage Loan” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Offering Documents means the entire such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, for the purposes of determining any rights or obligations of the Seller and the related Applicable Co-sponsor(s) with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Applicable Co-sponsor’s related mortgage loan purchase agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the term “Mortgage Loan” refers to the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) contributed to the Trust by such Applicable Co-sponsor and such promissory note(s) shall be treated like a separate Mortgage Loan.

The Purchaser and the Seller wish to prescribe the manner of sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser and in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, agree as follows:

SECTION 1        Sale and Conveyance of Mortgages; Possession of Mortgage File. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, representation or warranty (except as otherwise specifically set forth herein), subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan (other than any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”), including all interest and principal received or receivable on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding payments of principal and interest and other amounts due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-Off Date and excluding any Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loans).

In addition, on the Closing Date, solely in the event the initial Distribution Date occurs in February (except during a leap year) or March, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer (for deposit into the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account) (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Trust Fund the aggregate Initial Interest Deposit Amount with respect to those Mortgage Loans that accrue interest on an Actual/360 Basis, which Initial Interest Deposit Amount for each such Mortgage Loan shall represent an amount equal to (i) if the initial Distribution Date is in February, one day of interest (except during a leap year), and (ii) if the initial Distribution Date is in March, two days of interest (or one day of interest during a leap year), in each case, at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the related Cut-Off Date Balance of each such Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, no Initial Interest Deposit Amount will be due and owing if (i) the initial Distribution Date does not occur in February or March, or (ii) if the initial Distribution Date occurs in February during a leap year.

In addition, on the Closing Date, if one or more Mortgage Loans is identified opposite the Seller’s name on Annex B to this Agreement (which Mortgage Loans do not have a Due Date in the month of the first Distribution Date), the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer or the Certificate Administrator (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), for deposit into the account set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on behalf of the Seller and for the benefit of the Trust Fund, the Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount with respect to each such Mortgage Loan, which Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount shall represent an amount equal to one-month’s interest accrued with respect to each such Mortgage Loan at the related Net Mortgage Rate for the month preceding the month of the first Distribution Date.

Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Note, the Seller’s interest in the related Mortgage represented by the Note and the other contents of the related Mortgage File (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) will be vested in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee, and the ownership of records and documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than those to be held by the holder of any related Companion Loan

-2-

that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) prepared by or which come into the possession of the Seller shall (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) immediately vest in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee. In connection with the transfer pursuant to this Section 1 of any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, the Seller does hereby assign to the Purchaser all of its rights, title and interest (solely in its capacity as the holder of the subject Mortgage Loan) in, to and under the related Co-Lender Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the Seller does not assign any right, title or interest that it or any other party may have thereunder in its capacity as the holder of any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). The Seller’s assignment of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement.

The Purchaser will sell: (i) the Public Certificates to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Underwriters; (ii) the Private Certificates to the Initial Purchasers (the Initial Purchasers, collectively with the Underwriters, are referred to herein as the “Dealers”) specified in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Initial Purchasers; and (iii) if applicable, any classes of Loan-Specific Certificates pursuant to a related purchase agreement between the Purchaser and any applicable Loan-Specific Initial Purchasers identified therein.

The sale and conveyance of the Mortgage Loans is being conducted on an arms-length basis and upon commercially reasonable terms. As the consideration for the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser shall: (i) pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Seller or at the Seller’s direction that sum set forth in the funding schedule executed by the Seller and the Purchaser relating to the sale of the Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby (but subject to certain post-settlement adjustments for expenses incurred by the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Depositor and for which the Seller is specifically responsible); and (ii) if the Seller is listed on Annex C to this Agreement, cause any Uncertificated Interests or Class VRR Certificates identified on Annex C hereto opposite the Seller’s name to be registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in the name of the Seller.

The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2        Books and Records; Certain Funds Received After the Cut-Off Date. From and after the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, record title to each Mortgage (other than with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Note shall be transferred to the Trustee subject to and in accordance with this Agreement. Any funds due after the Cut-Off Date in connection with a Mortgage Loan received by the Seller shall be held in trust on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders) as the owner of such Mortgage Loan and shall be transferred promptly to the Certificate Administrator. All scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date but collected after the Cut-Off Date, and all recoveries and payments of principal and interest collected on or before the Cut-Off Date (only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-Off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall belong to, and shall be promptly remitted to, the Seller.

-3-

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Seller’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the sale of such Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser. The Seller intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser as a sale for tax purposes. Following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser, the Seller shall not take any actions inconsistent with the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser and its assignees.

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Purchaser’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the purchase of such Mortgage Loan by the Purchaser from the Seller. The Purchaser intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the Seller as a purchase for tax purposes. The Purchaser shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a set of records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the transfer of ownership of each Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Seller will receive the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 3        Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Additional Costs and Expenses. (a) The Purchaser hereby directs the Seller, and the Seller hereby agrees, such agreement effective upon the transfer of the Mortgage Loans as contemplated herein, to deliver to and deposit with (or to cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Custodian (on behalf of the Trustee), with copies (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to be delivered to the Master Servicer, on the dates set forth in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered by the Purchaser, or contemplated to be delivered by the Seller (whether at the direction of the Purchaser or otherwise), to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, with respect to the Mortgage Loans under Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and meeting all the requirements of such Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

With respect to letters of credit (exclusive of those relating to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer, and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall require the Master Servicer to hold, the original (or copy, if such original has been submitted by the Seller to the issuing bank to effect an assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer) for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, to the extent required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents)) and the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied any such delivery requirements by delivering with respect to any letter(s) of credit a copy thereof to the Custodian together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller certifying that such document has been delivered to the Master Servicer or an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that it holds the letter(s) of credit pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If a letter of credit

-4-

referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents, the Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Master Servicer within 90 days of the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(b)               Except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall deliver to and deposit with (or cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date: (i) a copy of the Mortgage File; (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan(s), (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any related asset summaries that were delivered to the Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Certificates, material notices related to tenant leases, and any related operating statements, financial statements, appraisals or similar reports) or any related Serviced Companion Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans or holders of interests therein, and (C) are in the possession or under the control of the Seller; and (iii) all unapplied Escrow Payments and reserve funds in the possession or under control of the Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans together with a statement indicating which Escrow Payments and reserve funds are allocable to each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

(c)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by any Mortgaged Property that is subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any such related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Seller or its designee shall, within 45 days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor for the transfer or assignment of such comfort letter or issuance of a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), with a copy of such notice or request to the Custodian (who shall include such document

-5-

in the related Mortgage File) and the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, deliver the original of such replacement comfort letter, new document or acknowledgement, as applicable, to the Custodian for inclusion in the Mortgage File.

With respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver the remaining portion of the related Mortgage File or any remaining document required to be delivered with respect thereto shall be joint and several, provided that any one of the Applicable Co-sponsors may deliver one Mortgage File (exclusive of the related Mortgage Notes) or one of any other remaining document required to be delivered with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan hereunder and under the mortgage loan purchase agreement(s) between the Purchaser and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s), and such delivery shall satisfy the corresponding delivery requirements for both the Seller and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s).

(e)               Upon written request from the Special Servicer, the Seller shall deliver a power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement to the Special Servicer, that permits the Special Servicer to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement actions by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 4        Treatment as a Security Agreement. Pursuant to Section 1 hereof, the Seller has conveyed to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the parties also intend and agree that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and in such event does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal or interest on such Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-Off Date, all other payments made in respect of such Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date) and all proceeds thereof, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser hypothecating and transferring such security interest in favor of the Trustee and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Trustee.

SECTION 5        Covenants of the Seller. The Seller covenants with the Purchaser as follows:

(a)               with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), it shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file, in

-6-

the appropriate public recording office for real property records or UCC financing statements, as appropriate, each related assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases, and each related UCC-3 financing statement referred to in the definition of Mortgage File, in each case in favor of the Trustee, as and to the extent contemplated under Section 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the recordation or filing of such assignments of Assignment of Leases, assignments of Mortgage and financing statements shall be paid by (or caused to be paid by) the Seller. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and the Seller shall record or file, or cause the recording or filing of, such substitute or corrected document or instrument, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to such third party (or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan);

(b)               as to each Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the Seller cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, it shall forward to the Custodian a copy of the original certified by the Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording. The Seller shall cause each assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above to reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the Seller or its designee, in which case the Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof;

(c)               except for actions that are the express responsibility of another party hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer, including effectuating the transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and any Serviced Companion Loan Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(c) shall not apply with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan;

(d)               the Seller shall provide the Master Servicer the initial data with respect to each Mortgage Loan for the CREFC^® Financial File and the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File that are required to be prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

-7-

(e)               if (during the period of time that the Underwriters are required, under applicable law, to deliver a prospectus related to the Public Certificates in connection with sales of the Public Certificates by an Underwriter or a dealer) the Seller has obtained actual knowledge of undisclosed or corrected information related to an event that occurred prior to the Closing Date, which event causes there to be an untrue statement of a material fact with respect to the Seller Information (as such term is defined in the Indemnification Agreement) in the Prospectus, the Offering Circular or any Loan-Specific Offering Circular (the Prospectus, the Offering Circular and any Loan-Specific Offering Circular are collectively referred to herein as the “Offering Documents”), or causes there to be an omission to state therein a material fact with respect to the Seller Information required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein with respect to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Seller shall promptly notify the Dealers and the Depositor. If as a result of any such event the Dealers’ legal counsel determines that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Documents in order to correct the untrue statement, or to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or to make the Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to the Seller Information) at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Dealers, such amendments or supplements to the Offering Documents as may be necessary so that the Seller Information in the Offering Documents, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law. (All capitalized terms used in this Section 5(e) and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date for the Certificates, between, among others, the Dealers, the Seller and the Depositor (the “Indemnification Agreement” and, together with this Agreement, the “Operative Documents”).) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall have no affirmative obligation to monitor the performance of the Mortgage Loans or any changes in condition or circumstance of any Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor, guarantor or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date in connection with its obligations under this Section 5(e);

(f)                for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Seller shall: (1) provide the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and any Form 8-K Disclosure Information for which the Seller is responsible as indicated on Exhibit U, Exhibit V and Exhibit Z to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that, in connection with providing Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and the Seller’s reporting obligations under Item 1119 of Regulation AB, upon reasonable request by the Seller, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a list of all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any other Servicing Function Participant; and (2) reasonably cooperate with each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, upon the reasonable request of such party, by providing all Mortgage Loan related documents, data and information in the possession of the Seller at or prior to the Closing Date and on the date of such request and necessary for the ongoing compliance by the Depositor and the Trust with the requirements of Form 10-D with respect to Items 1111 and 1125 of Regulation AB; provided, that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the

(g)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered an electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence File (including, if applicable, any additional documents that the Seller believes should be included to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform an Asset Review on such Mortgage Loan; provided that such documents are clearly labeled and identified) to the Designated Site, each such Diligence File being organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor;

(h)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Depositor (with a copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) with a certification by an authorized officer of the Seller, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, that the electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan uploaded to the Designated Site contains all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor, which such certification or copies thereof may be sent via email;

(i)                 upon written request of the Asset Representations Reviewer (in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for a Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan), the Seller shall provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written request (which time period may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the Seller and the Asset Representations Reviewer), such documents requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer and in the possession of the Seller relating to each such Delinquent Loan to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete any Test for each such Delinquent Loan, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(j)                 upon the completion of an Asset Review with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan and receipt by the Seller of a written invoice from the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Seller shall pay to the Asset Representations Reviewer, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such written invoice, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to such Delinquent Loan as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to adjustment with respect to any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan(s), as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(k)               if the Preliminary Asset Review Report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the Seller shall have 90 days

-9-

from receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report. If the Seller elects to refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report, the Seller shall provide to the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test;

(l)                 the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event an Enforcing Party elects a dispute resolution method pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Seller shall abide by the selected dispute resolution method and otherwise comply with the terms and provisions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) related to the resolution method;

(m)             the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages and other liabilities, including without limitation the costs of investigation, legal defense and any amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation arising out of or based upon (i) any failure of the Seller to pay the fees described under Section 5(j) above within 90 days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) any failure by the Seller to provide all documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to Sections 5(g) and 5(i) of this Agreement and under the definition of “Diligence File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within 60 days of the Closing Date (or such later date specified herein or in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); and

(e)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Enforcing Servicer is required to determine whether any such Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan materially and adversely affects, or such Document Defect is deemed in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to materially and adversely affect, the value of the Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or the interests of the Trustee or any Certificateholder in the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or causes any Mortgage Loan to fail to be a Qualified Mortgage (any such Document Defect shall constitute a “Material Document Defect” and any such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach”; and a Material Breach and/or a Material Document Defect, as the case may be, shall constitute a “Material Defect”). If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect, then the Enforcing Servicer will be required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller, demanding that the Seller cure such Material Defect. Promptly upon becoming aware of any such Material Defect (including, without limitation, through a written notice given by any party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as provided above if the Document Defect or Breach identified therein is a Material Defect), the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the Seller’s (x) discovery of, and (y) receipt of notice of and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to such Material Defect (or, in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days from any party discovering such Material Defect), cure the same in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of any losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses associated therewith (including, if applicable, the amount of any fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer payable pursuant to Section 5(j) above attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan)) or, if such Material Defect cannot be cured within such 90-day period, the Seller shall (before the end of such 90-day period) either: (i) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property (or the Trust Fund’s interest therein) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account; or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date and in no event shall any such substitution be effected with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) and pay the Master Servicer, for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith; provided, that the Seller may not repurchase any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan without repurchasing its Mortgage Loan that is part of the same Whole Loan (so long as there is a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan); and provided, further, however, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such 90-day period, then the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure (or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as described above) it being understood and agreed that, in connection with the Seller’s receiving such additional 90-day period, the Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day period and what actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the Seller anticipates that such Material Defect

-14-

will be cured within such additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the initial 90-day period and any such additional 90-day period solely due to the failure of the Seller to have received the recorded document, then the Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect so long as the Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator every 30 days thereafter that the Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date. Any such repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. The Seller shall have no obligation to monitor the Mortgage Loans regarding the existence of a Breach or a Document Defect, but if the Seller discovers a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, it will notify the Purchaser. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-Off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and shall be required, under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller promptly following receipt. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. No mortgage loan may be substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Section 6(e) if the Mortgage Loan to be replaced was itself a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that had replaced a prior Mortgage Loan, in which case, absent a cure (including by the making of a Loss of Value Payment pursuant to the following paragraph) of the relevant Material Defect, the affected Mortgage Loan will be required to be repurchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), in lieu of the Seller performing its obligations with respect to any Material Defect as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to the extent that the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer (subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder or, in the case of any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative so long as it is the applicable Directing Holder) as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, are able to agree upon a cash payment payable by the Seller to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, that would be deemed sufficient to compensate the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, for a Material Defect (a “Loss of Value Payment”), the Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such Loss of Value Payment to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable; provided that a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage, may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment; and provided, further, that the Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Loss of Value Payment relates to a Co-sponsored

-15-

Mortgage Loan, the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement). Upon its making a Loss of Value Payment, the Seller shall be deemed to have cured the subject Material Defect in all respects. Provided that such Loss of Value Payment is made, this paragraph describes the sole remedy available to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, and its assignees regarding any such Material Defect, and the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase or replace the affected Mortgage Loan or otherwise cure such Material Defect. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, provided that, prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Seller or the Enforcing Servicer, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and within the time frames set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this Section 6(e) (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan).

If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as described above (a “Defective Mortgage Loan”), (y) such Defective Mortgage Loan is part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and (z) the applicable Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Material Defect as to the other Mortgage Loan(s) that are a part of such Cross-Collateralized Group (the “Other Crossed Loans”) (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Document Defect or Breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to each such Other Crossed Loan for purposes of the above provisions, and the Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such Other Crossed Loan in accordance with the provisions above unless, in the case of such Breach or Document Defect, as applicable:

(A) the Seller (at its expense) delivers or causes to be delivered to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Seller’s repurchase or replacement of only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Defect has actually occurred without regard to the provisions of this paragraph (the “Affected Loan(s)”) and the operation of the remaining provisions of this Section 6(e) (i) will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Certificate is outstanding and (ii) will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code); and

(B)  each of the following conditions would be satisfied if the Seller were to repurchase or replace only the Affected Loans and not the Other Crossed Loans:

(1)   the debt service coverage ratio for such Other Crossed Loan(s) (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not less than the lesser of (A) 0.10x below the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus and (B) the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-

-16-

Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) for the four preceding calendar quarters preceding the repurchase or replacement;

(2)   the loan-to-value ratio for the Other Crossed Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the greatest of (A) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus plus 10%, (B) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) at the time of repurchase or replacement and (C) 75%; and

(3)   either (x) the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group will not impair the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group or (y) the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans have been modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that removes any threat of impairment of the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group as a result of the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group.

The determination of the Enforcing Servicer as to whether the conditions set forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error on the Certificateholders, other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Seller. The Enforcing Servicer will be entitled to cause to be delivered, or direct the Seller to (in which case the Seller shall) cause to be delivered, to the Enforcing Servicer an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause (B)(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the Seller if the scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the Seller and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in each case).

With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan that forms a part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and as to which the conditions described in the second preceding paragraph are satisfied, such that the Trust Fund will continue to hold the Other Crossed Loans, the Seller and the Depositor agree to forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each is permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan(s) still held by the Trust Fund. If the exercise of remedies by one such party would impair the ability of the other such party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan or the Other Crossed Loans, as the case may be, held by the other such party, then both parties shall forbear from exercising such remedies unless and until the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans can be modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment as a result of the

-17-

exercise of remedies. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing any of the Mortgage Loans that form a Cross-Collateralized Group shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Loan Documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. All other terms of the Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect, without any modification thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall be binding on all future holders of each Mortgage Loan that forms part of a Cross-Collateralized Group.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that, to the extent necessary and appropriate, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will execute (pursuant to a limited power of attorney provided by the Trustee who will not be liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any of its agents or subcontractors) the modification of the Loan Documents that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment of the ability of the Seller or the Trust Fund to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loan(s) held by such party resulting from the exercise of remedies by the other such party. All costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer with respect to any Cross-Collateralized Group pursuant to this paragraph and the first, second and third preceding paragraphs shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as provided for in Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and such advances and interest thereon shall be included in the calculation of Purchase Price for the Affected Loan(s) to be repurchased or replaced.

Subject to the Seller’s right to cure set forth above in this Section 6(e), and further subject to Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, failure of the Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8) and (18) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except such deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

If there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties securing a Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase such Mortgage Loan if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property(ies) are, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the related Loan Documents and the Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such

-18-

release would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

With respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees that if a “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) exists under the related Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan included in the related Outside Securitization Trust, and such Outside Serviced Companion Loan is repurchased by or on behalf of such Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) from the related Outside Securitization Trust as a result of such “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in such Outside Servicing Agreement), then the Seller shall repurchase such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) related solely to the promissory note for such Outside Serviced Companion Loan.

(f)                In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or more Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the repurchasing entity evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File (including, without limitation, the Servicing File) and other documents and all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the repurchasing or substituting entity or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and reconveyance of the Mortgage Loan and the security therefor to the Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. In the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan by the Seller as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian the related Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of any deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) and deliver or cause the delivery of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Upon any substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall become part of the Trust Fund and be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

-19-

(g)               The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Notes or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files.

(h)               Each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other party upon discovery of any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement. The Seller’s obligation to cure any Material Defect or to repurchase, or substitute for, or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to, any affected Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a breach of any of the Seller’s representations or warranties contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement or a Document Defect with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(i)                 The Seller shall promptly notify the Depositor if (i) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request (other than from the Depositor), (ii) the Seller repurchases or replaces a Mortgage Loan, (iii) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal (other than from the Depositor) or (iv) the Seller rejects or disputes any Repurchase Request. Each such notice shall be given no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after (A) with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding sentence, receipt of a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, as applicable, and (B) with respect to clauses (ii) and (iv) of the preceding sentence, the occurrence of the event giving rise to the requirement for such notice, and shall include (1) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan and the person making the Repurchase Request, (2) the date (x) such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal was received, (y) the related Mortgage Loan was repurchased or replaced or (z) the Repurchase Request was rejected or disputed, as applicable, and (3) if known, the basis for (x) the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) or (y) any rejection or dispute of a Repurchase Request, as applicable.

The Seller shall provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator the Seller’s “Central Index Key” number assigned by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and a true, correct and complete copy of the relevant portions of any Form ABS-15G that the Seller is required to file with the Commission under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Mortgage Loans, on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days before the date such Form ABS-15G is required to be filed with the Commission.

In addition, the Seller shall provide the Depositor, upon request, such other information in its possession as would permit the Depositor to comply with its obligations under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act to disclose fulfilled and unfulfilled repurchase requests. Any such information requested shall be provided as promptly as practicable after such request is made.

The Seller agrees that no Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider will be required to provide information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice that is protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. In addition, the Seller hereby acknowledges that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is so provided only to assist the Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law

-20-

or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to this Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.

Each party hereto agrees that the receipt of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice or the delivery of any notice required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6(i) shall not, in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of, receipt of notice of, or knowledge of the Seller of, any Material Defect.

Each party hereto agrees and acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, the “Central Index Key” number of the Trust Fund is 0002016125.

“Repurchase Communication” means, for purposes of this Section 6(i) only, any communication, whether oral or written, which need not be in any specific form.

(j)                 The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that it and the Purchaser have engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ernst & Young LLP (the “Accounting Firms”) to perform “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans and to prepare one or more “third-party due diligence reports” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act) (collectively, the “Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report”) in connection therewith. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Depositor that, except with respect to the Accounting Firms and the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report, the Seller, as of the Closing Date, (A) has not obtained any “third-party due diligence report” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act), and (B) has not retained any third party to engage in, and will not retain any third party to engage in, any activity that constitutes “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans, unless, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (B) and following the Closing Date, the Seller (i) provides prior written notice to the Depositor, (ii) requires the third-party due diligence provider to comply with its obligations under Section 15E(s)(4)(B) of, and Rule 17g-10 under, the Exchange Act (including with respect to the timely delivery to any applicable NRSRO and to the Depositor of a Form ABS Due Diligence-15E), and (iii) facilitates the Depositor’s compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3)(iii)(E) under the Exchange Act, with respect thereto. The Seller further represents and warrants that no portion of the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report contains, with respect to the information contained therein with respect to the Mortgage Loans, any names, addresses, other personal identifiers or zip codes with respect to any individuals, or any other personally identifiable or other information that would be associated with an individual, including without limitation any “nonpublic personal information” within the meaning of Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. The Underwriters and Initial Purchasers are third-party beneficiaries of the provisions set forth in this Section 6(j).

(k)               The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is not the Purchaser), the related Outside Servicing Agreement contains, or at the time such Outside Servicing Agreement is executed and delivered will contain, terms and provisions (or, to the extent

-21-

specified on Exhibit E to this Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement contains terms and provisions (and, to the extent contained in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the applicable documents provide that such terms and provisions are deemed included by reference into the related Outside Servicing Agreement)) that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement. The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is the Purchaser), the related Co-Lender Agreement does not contain any terms or provisions that conflict with (or that will conflict with) any terms or provisions in the related Outside Servicing Agreement that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement.

SECTION 7        Review of Mortgage File. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Custodian will be required to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and if it finds any document or documents not to have been properly executed, or to be missing or to be defective on its face in any material respect, to notify the Purchaser, which shall promptly notify the Seller.

SECTION 8        Conditions to Closing. The obligation of the Seller to sell the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the Seller having received the consideration for the Mortgage Loans as contemplated by Section 1 of this Agreement. The obligations of the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the satisfaction, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the following conditions:

(a)               Each of the obligations of the Seller required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall have been duly performed and complied with and all of the representations and warranties of the Seller under this Agreement shall, subject to any applicable exceptions set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement, be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date or as of such other date as of which such representation is made under the terms of Exhibit B to this Agreement, and no event shall have occurred as of the Closing Date which would constitute a default on the part of the Seller under this Agreement, and the Purchaser shall have received a certificate to the foregoing effect signed by the Seller substantially in the form of Exhibit D to this Agreement.

(b)               The Pooling and Servicing Agreement (to the extent it affects the obligations of the Seller hereunder), in such form as is agreed upon and acceptable to the Purchaser, the Seller, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and their respective counsel in their reasonable discretion, shall be duly executed and delivered by all signatories as required pursuant to the terms thereof.

(c)               The Purchaser shall have received the following additional closing documents:

(i)                                copies of the Seller’s Articles of Association, charter, by-laws or other organizational documents and all amendments, revisions, restatements and supplements thereof, certified as of a recent date by the Secretary of the Seller;

-22-

(ii)                                a certificate as of a recent date of the applicable regulatory body or governmental agency to the effect that the Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in the jurisdiction of its formation;

(iii)                          an officer’s certificate of the Seller in form reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and each Rating Agency;

(iv)                            an opinion of counsel of the Seller, subject to customary exceptions and carve-outs, in form reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and each Rating Agency; and

(v)                               a letter from counsel of the Seller substantially to the effect that (a) nothing has come to such counsel’s attention that would lead such counsel to believe that the agreed upon sections of the Preliminary Prospectus (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Offering Circular, any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular or any final Loan-Specific Offering Circular, in each case as of the date thereof or as of the Closing Date (or, in the case of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular or any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular, solely as of the time of sale) contained or contain, as applicable, with respect to the Seller Information, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein relating to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (b) the Seller Information in the Prospectus appears to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of Regulation AB.

(d)               The Public Certificates shall have been concurrently issued and sold pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement. The Private Certificates shall have been concurrently issued and sold pursuant to the terms of the Certificate Purchase Agreement. If applicable, any Loan-Specific Certificates shall have been concurrently issued and sold pursuant to the terms of the related Loan-Specific Certificate Purchase Agreement.

the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement. Furthermore, the parties shall in good faith endeavor to replace any provision held to be invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision which most closely resembles, and which has the same economic effect as, the provision held to be invalid or unenforceable.

SECTION 20    Exercise of Rights. No failure or delay on the part of any party to exercise any right, power or privilege under this Agreement and no course of dealing between the Seller and the Purchaser shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Except as set forth in Section 6(h) of this Agreement, the rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any party would otherwise have pursuant to law or equity.

SECTION 21    No Partnership. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto.

-26-

SECTION 22    Miscellaneous. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

(b)               In the event that a Covered Party or any BHC Affiliate (as defined below) of such Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights (as defined below) with respect to this Agreement that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(c)               For the purposes of this Section 24, the following definitions apply:

“BHC Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k).

EXHIBIT B

MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

(1) Whole Loan; Ownership of Mortgage Loans. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a Mortgage Loan. Each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is a portion of a whole loan evidenced by a Mortgage Note. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to the Purchaser, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller or, with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the trustee for the related Other Securitization Trust), participation or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. The Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Mortgage Loan, and the assignment to the Purchaser constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Mortgage Loan.

(2) Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Mortgage Loan documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment premium/yield maintenance charges) may be further limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Mortgage Loan documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the Mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Mortgage Loan documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by Seller in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, that would deny the Mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents.

Exhibit B-1

(3) Mortgage Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

(4) Hospitality Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan that is secured by a hospitality property operated pursuant to a franchise agreement includes an executed comfort letter or similar agreement signed by the Mortgagor and franchisor of such property enforceable by the Issuing Entity against such franchisor, either directly or as an assignee of the originator. The Mortgage or related security agreement for each Mortgage Loan secured by a hospitality property creates a security interest in the revenues of such property for which a UCC financing statement has been filed in the appropriate filing office.

(5) Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except by written instruments set forth in the related Mortgage File or as otherwise provided in the related Mortgage Loan documents (a)(1) there has been no forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan which such forbearance, waiver or modification relates to the COVID-19 emergency, (2) as of the Cut-Off Date, to the knowledge of the Seller, after due inquiry, there has been no written request from the related Mortgagor for a forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such request relates to the COVID-19 emergency and (3) other than as related to the COVID-19 emergency, the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Mortgage Loan guaranty and related Mortgage Loan documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the Mortgagor nor the guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the Mortgage Loan. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, except as contained in a written document included in the Mortgage File, there have been no modifications, amendments or waivers, that could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on such Mortgage Loan consented to by the Seller on or after the Cut-Off Date.

(6) Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each endorsement or assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases from the Seller or its affiliate is in recordable form (but for the insertion of the name of the assignee and any related recording information which is not yet available to the Seller) and constitutes a legal, valid and binding endorsement or assignment from the Seller, or its affiliate, as applicable. Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee (or if identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, leasehold) interest in the Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such

Exhibit B-2

Mortgage Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below) and the exceptions to paragraph 7 below (each such exception, a “Title Exception”)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions) as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy (as described below), and as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(7) Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy or a “marked up” commitment, in each case with escrow instructions and binding on the title insurer) (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record specifically identified in the Title Policy; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property; (f) if the related Mortgage Loan constitutes a cross collateralized Mortgage Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for another Mortgage Loan contained in the same cross collateralized group of Mortgage Loans, and (g) condominium declarations of record and identified in such Title Policy, provided that none of clauses (a) through (g), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or principal use of the Mortgaged Property, the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, or the current ability of the related Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). For purposes of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the

Exhibit B-3

date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon. Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the second preceding sentence none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of the Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy. Each Title Policy contains no exclusion for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such affirmative insurance is not available in which case such exclusion may exist), that the Mortgaged Property shown on the survey is the same as the property legally described in the Mortgage.

(8) Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Mortgage Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan, as of the Cut-Off Date there are no subordinate mortgages or junior mortgage liens encumbering the related Mortgaged Property other than Permitted Encumbrances, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (6) above), and equipment and other personal property financing. The Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor other than as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B.

(9) Assignment of Leases and Rents. There exists as part of the related Mortgage File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions (and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, subject to the related Assignment of Leases constituting security for the entire Whole Loan), each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to applicable law and the Standard Qualifications, provides that, upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan, a receiver may be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related Mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the Mortgagee.

(10) Financing Statements. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each Mortgage Loan or related security agreement establishes a valid security interest in, and a UCC-1 financing statement has been filed and/or recorded (or, in the case of fixtures, the Mortgage constitutes a fixture filing) in all places necessary at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan (or, if not filed and/or recorded, has submitted or caused to be submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording) to perfect a valid security interest in, the personal property (creation and perfection of which is governed by the UCC) owned by the

Exhibit B-4

Mortgagor and necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property in its current use other than (1) non-material personal property, (2) personal property subject to purchase money security interests and (3) personal property that is leased equipment. Each UCC-1 financing statement, if any, filed with respect to personal property constituting a part of the related Mortgaged Property and each UCC-3 assignment, if any, filed with respect to such financing statement was in suitable form for filing in the filing office in which such financing statement was filed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(11) Condition of Property. The Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six months of origination of the Mortgage Loan and within twelve months of the Cut-Off Date.

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan no more than twelve months prior to the Cut-Off Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the Closing Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than (i) deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination and (ii) any damage fully covered by insurance) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan.

(12) Taxes and Assessments. As of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, all taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges) due with respect to the Mortgaged Property (excluding any related personal property) securing a Mortgage Loan that is or could become a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that became due and owing prior to the Cut-Off Date with respect to each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or, if the appropriate amount of such taxes or charges is being appealed or is otherwise in dispute, the unpaid taxes or charges are covered by an escrow of funds or other security sufficient to pay such tax or charge and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon.

(13) Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding pending and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the date of origination and as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding threatened for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property.

(14) Actions Concerning Mortgage Loan. To the Seller’s knowledge, based on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7), an engineering report or property condition

Exhibit B-5

assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), as of origination there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Mortgage Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage Loan documents; (f) the current ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service such Mortgage Loan; or (g) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property.

(15) Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and escrow payments currently required to be escrowed with the Mortgagee pursuant to each Mortgage Loan (including capital improvements and environmental remediation reserves) are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no delinquencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required under the related Mortgage Loan documents are being conveyed by the Seller to the depositor or its servicer (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the depositor under the related Outside Servicing Agreement or the related Outside Servicer for the related Other Securitization Trust).

(16) No Holdbacks. The principal amount of the Mortgage Loan stated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule has been fully disbursed as of the Closing Date and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs, occupancy, performance or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by the Seller to merit such holdback).

(17) Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (as defined below), in an amount (subject to customary deductibles) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

Exhibit B-6

“Insurance Ratings Requirements” means either (1) a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” from S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, or (2) the Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements. “Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements” means insurance provided by a syndicate of insurers, as to which (i) if such syndicate consists of 5 or more members, at least 60% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 40% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, and (ii) if such syndicate consists of 4 or fewer members, at least 75% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 25% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with respect to each Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in an amount equal to the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program, plus such additional excess flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders originating mortgage loans for securitization.

If the Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor and included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements.

The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property

Exhibit B-7

damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the probable maximum loss or scenario expected loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the PML would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC in an amount not less than 100% of the PML.

The Mortgage Loan documents require insurance proceeds (or an amount equal to such insurance proceeds) in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, the Mortgagee (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section that are required by the Mortgage Loan documents to be paid as of the Cut-Off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the Mortgagee under the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the trustee (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the Mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by the Seller.

(18) Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Parcels. Based solely on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7) and survey, if any, an engineering report or property condition assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), each Mortgaged

Exhibit B-8

Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has permanent access from a recorded easement or right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and other utilities necessary for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, all of which are adequate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been made or is required to be made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax parcels (or the Mortgage Loan documents so require such application in the future), in which case the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which the Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax parcels are created.

(19) No Encroachments. To the Seller’s knowledge based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the Title Policy obtained in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan, and except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the current marketability or principal use of the Mortgaged Property: (a) all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; (b) no material improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; and (c) no material improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy.

(20) No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Mortgage Loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date) or an equity participation by the Seller.

(21) REMIC. The Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Mortgage Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and (B) either: (a) such Mortgage Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including permanently affixed buildings and structural components, such as wiring, plumbing systems and central heating and air-conditioning systems, that are integrated into such buildings, serve such buildings in their passive functions and do not produce or contribute to the production of income other than consideration for the use or occupancy of space, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Mortgage Loan was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date or (ii) at the Closing

Exhibit B-9

Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Closing Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Mortgage Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Mortgage Loan will not be considered “significantly modified” solely by reason of the borrower having been granted a COVID-19 related forbearance provided that: (a) such Mortgage Loan forbearance is covered by Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12) by reason of satisfying the requirements for such coverage stated in Section 5.02(2) of Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12); and (b) the Seller identifies such Mortgage Loan and provides (x) the date on which such forbearance was granted, (y) the length in months of the forbearance, and (z) how the payments in forbearance will be paid (that is, by extension of maturity, change of amortization schedule, etc.). Any prepayment premiums and yield maintenance charges applicable to the Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph will have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

(22) Compliance with Usury Laws. The mortgage rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) of such Mortgage Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(23) Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Cut-Off Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Mortgage Loan by the Issuing Entity.

(24) Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related Mortgagee.

Exhibit B-10

(25) Local Law Compliance. To the Seller’s knowledge, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, a survey, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan are in material compliance with applicable laws, zoning ordinances, rules, covenants, and restrictions (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) governing the occupancy, use, and operation of such Mortgaged Property or constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure and any non-conformity with zoning laws constitutes a legal non-conforming use or structure which does not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of such Mortgaged Property. In the event of casualty or destruction, (a) the Mortgaged Property may be restored or repaired to the full extent necessary to maintain the use of the structure immediately prior to such casualty or destruction, (b) law and ordinance insurance coverage has been obtained for the Mortgaged Property in amounts customarily required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, (c) title insurance policy coverage has been obtained with respect to any non-conforming use or structure, or (d) the inability to restore the Mortgaged Property to the full extent of the use or structure immediately prior to the casualty would not materially and adversely affect the use or operation of such Mortgaged Property. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

(26) Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents that it will keep all material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals necessary for the operation of the Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the Seller’s knowledge based upon any of a letter from any government authorities, zoning consultant’s report or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization; all such material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals are in effect or the failure to obtain or maintain such material licenses, permits, franchises or certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals does not materially and adversely affect the use and/or operation of the Mortgaged Property as it was used and operated as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan or the rights of a holder of the related Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable regulations, zoning and building laws.

(27) Recourse Obligations. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan (a) provide that such Mortgage Loan becomes full recourse to the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis) in any of the following events (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) if any petition for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation

Exhibit B-11

pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, will be filed by, consented to, or acquiesced in by, the Mortgagor; (ii) the Mortgagor or guarantor will have solicited or caused to be solicited petitioning creditors to cause an involuntary bankruptcy filing with respect to the Mortgagor or (iii) transfers of either the Mortgaged Property or controlling equity interests in the Mortgagor made in violation of the Mortgage Loan documents; and (b) contains provisions for recourse against the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis), for losses and damages resulting from the following (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) the Mortgagor’s misappropriation of rents after an event of default, security deposits, insurance proceeds, or condemnation awards; (ii) the Mortgagor’s fraud or intentional material misrepresentation; (iii) breaches of the environmental covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents; or (iv) the Mortgagor’s commission of intentional material physical waste at the Mortgaged Property (but, in some cases, only to the extent there is sufficient cash flow generated by the related Mortgaged Property to prevent such waste).

(28) Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Mortgage Loan documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial defeasance (as described in paragraph 33), in each case of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance (defined in paragraph 33 below), (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation. With respect to any partial release (including in connection with any partial Defeasance) under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) and (ii) would not cause the subject Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the Mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make

Exhibit B-12

a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions.

In the case of any Mortgage Loan, in the event of a condemnation or taking of any portion of a Mortgaged Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, unless an opinion of counsel is delivered as specified in clause (y) of the preceding paragraph, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, the condemnation proceeds or the award from any such taking may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans).

No such Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross collateralized with another Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties or a portion thereof, including due to a partial condemnation, other than in compliance with the loan-to-value ratio and other requirements of the REMIC Provisions.

(29) Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage Loan with (a) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, (b) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls (or maintenance schedules in the case of Mortgage Loans secured by residential cooperative properties) for properties that have any individual lease which accounts for more than 5% of the in-place base rent, and (c) annual financial statements.

(30) Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Mortgage Loan over $20 million, as of origination the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 and the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015 (collectively referred to as “TRIPRA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the Mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIPRA, or damages related thereto, except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by commercial availability on commercially reasonable terms, or as otherwise indicated on Exhibit C; provided, that if TRIPRA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then,

Exhibit B-13

provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Mortgage Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor will not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Mortgage Loan documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance) at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount.

(31) Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Mortgage Loan contains a “due-on-sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the Mortgagee which are customarily acceptable to the Seller, including, but not limited to, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Mortgage Loan documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold, other than as related to (i) family and estate planning transfers or transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (iii) transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in a Mortgagor, (iv) transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Mortgage Loan documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (v) transfers of common stock in publicly traded companies or (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraphs 28 and 33 herein, or (vii) by reason of any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B, or future permitted mezzanine debt as set forth on Schedule B-2 to this Exhibit B or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan of any Mortgage Loan or any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (ii) purchase money security interests (iii) any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-3 to this Exhibit B or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents provide that to the extent any Rating Agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

(32) Single-Purpose Entity. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Mortgage Loan is outstanding. Each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-Off Date Balance of $30 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-

Exhibit B-14

consolidation of the Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” means an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents and the related Mortgage Loan documents (or if the Mortgage Loan has a Cut-Off Date Balance equal to $10 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Mortgage Loan documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Mortgage Loan documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Mortgage Loan documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with the related Mortgage Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

(33) Defeasance. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that, pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, can be defeased (a “Defeasance”), (i) the Mortgage Loan documents provide for defeasance as a unilateral right of the Mortgagor, subject to satisfaction of conditions specified in the Mortgage Loan documents; (ii) the Mortgage Loan cannot be defeased within two years after the Closing Date; (iii) the Mortgagor is permitted to pledge only United States “government securities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), the revenues from which will, in the case of a full Defeasance, be sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Loan when due, including the entire remaining principal balance on the maturity date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) or, if the Mortgage Loan is an ARD Mortgage Loan, the entire principal balance outstanding on the Anticipated Repayment Date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium), and if the Mortgage Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (A) 110% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and (B) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; (iv) the defeasance collateral is not permitted to be subject to prepayment, call, or early redemption; (v) the Mortgagor is required to provide a certification from an independent certified public accountant that the collateral is sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note as set forth in clause (iii) above; (vi) the defeased note and the defeasance collateral are required to be assumed by a Single-Purpose Entity; (vii) the Mortgagor is required to provide an opinion of counsel that the Trustee has a perfected security interest in such collateral prior to any other claim or interest; and (viii) the Mortgagor is required to pay all rating agency fees associated with defeasance (if rating confirmation is a specific condition precedent thereto) and all other reasonable expenses associated with defeasance, including, but not limited to, accountant’s fees and opinions of counsel.

Exhibit B-15

(34) Fixed Interest Rates. Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except in the case of ARD Mortgage Loans and situations where default interest is imposed.

(35) Ground Leases. For purposes of this Exhibit B, a “Ground Lease” means a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a Ground Leasehold estate in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of the Seller, its successors and assigns (collectively, the “Ground Lease and Related Documents”), the Seller represents and warrants that:

(a) The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease and Related Documents permit the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and do not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage. No material change in the terms of the Ground Lease had occurred since the origination of the Mortgage Loan, except by any written instruments which are included in the related Mortgage File;

(b) The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Mortgage File (or in such Ground Lease and Related Documents) that the Ground Lease may not be amended, modified, canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee;

(c) The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Mortgage Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Mortgage Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

(d) The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any interests, estates, liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions; or (ii) is the subject of a subordination, non-disturbance or attornment agreement or similar agreement to which the Mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest is subject;

Exhibit B-16

(e) Subject to the notice requirements of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, the Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid), and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid);

(f) The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Closing Date;

(g) The Ground Lease and Related Documents require the lessor to give to the Mortgagee written notice of any default, provided that no notice of default or termination is effective against the Mortgagee unless such notice is given to the Mortgagee;

(h) A Mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the Mortgagee’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i) The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by the Seller in connection with the origination of similar commercial or multifamily loans intended for securitization;

(j) Under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest (other than in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in subpart (k)) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents) the Mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest;

Exhibit B-17

(k) In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l) Provided that the Mortgagee cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with the Mortgagee upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

(36) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been, in all respects legal and have met with customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for conduit loan programs.

(37) Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Mortgage Loan and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Exhibit B.

(38) No Material Default; Payment Record. No Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required payments in the prior 12 months (or since origination if such Mortgage Loan has been originated within the past 12 months), and as of Cut-Off Date, no Mortgage Loan is delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Mortgage Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Exhibit B. No person other than the holder of such Mortgage Loan may declare any event of default under the Mortgage Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under the Mortgage Loan documents.

(39) Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, neither the Mortgaged Property (other than any tenants of such Mortgaged Property), nor any portion thereof, is the subject of, and no Mortgagor,

Exhibit B-18

guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

(40) Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan and other than as set forth on Schedule B-4 to this Exhibit B, no Mortgage Loan has a Mortgagor that is an Affiliate of a Mortgagor with respect to another Mortgage Loan. An “Affiliate” for purposes of this paragraph (40) means, a Mortgagor that is under direct or indirect common ownership and control with another Mortgagor.

(41) Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II environmental site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable environmental laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related Mortgagee; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated or contained in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action, completion or closure letter or its equivalent was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than “A-” (or the equivalent) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, Fitch Ratings, Inc. and/or A.M. Best Company; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the

Exhibit B-19

Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

(42) Appraisal. The Servicing File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within 6 months of the Mortgage Loan origination date, and within 12 months of the Cut-Off Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser that (i) is a Member of the Appraisal Institute, and (ii) to the Seller’s knowledge, had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation. Each appraisal contains a statement or is accomplished by a letter from the appraiser, to the effect that the appraisal was performed in accordance with the requirement of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as in effect on the date such Mortgage Loan was originated.

(43) Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Mortgage Loan which is set forth in the mortgage loan schedule attached as an exhibit to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement is true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date and contains all information required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be contained therein.

(44) Cross-Collateralization. No Mortgage Loan is cross collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other mortgage loan that is outside the Mortgage Pool, except in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan.

(45) Advance of Funds by the Seller. Except for loan proceeds advanced at the time of loan origination or other payments contemplated by the Mortgage Loan documents, no advance of funds has been made by the Seller to the related Mortgagor, and no funds have been received from any person other than the related Mortgagor or an affiliate, directly, or, to the knowledge of the Seller, indirectly for, or on account of, payments due on the Mortgage Loan. Neither the Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contribution to any Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan, other than contributions made on or prior to the Closing Date.

(46) Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Seller has complied in all material respects with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Mortgage Loan.

For purposes of this Exhibit B, “Mortgagee” means the mortgagee, grantee or beneficiary under any Mortgage, any holder of legal title to any portion of any Mortgage Loan or, if applicable, any agent or servicer on behalf of such party.

Exhibit B-20

For purposes of this Exhibit B, “Mortgagor” means the obligor or obligors on a Mortgage Note, including without limitation, any person that has acquired the related Mortgaged Property and assumed the obligations of the original obligor under the Mortgage Note and including in connection with any Mortgage Loan that utilizes an indemnity deed of trust structure, the borrower and the Mortgaged Property owner/payment guarantor/mortgagor individually and collectively, as the context may require.

For purposes of this Exhibit B, the phrases “the Seller’s knowledge” or “the Seller’s belief” and other words and phrases of like import mean, except where otherwise expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, the actual state of knowledge or belief of the Seller, its officers and employees directly responsible for the underwriting, origination, servicing or sale of the Mortgage Loans regarding the matters expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, in each case without having conducted any independent inquiry into such matters and without any obligation to have done so (except (i) having sent to the servicers servicing the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Seller, if any, specific inquiries regarding the matters referred to and (ii) as expressly set forth in these representations and warranties). All information contained in documents which are part of or required to be part of a Mortgage File (to the extent such documents exist) will be deemed within the Seller’s knowledge.

This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of May 1, 2024, is between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as purchaser (the “Purchaser”), and Starwood Mortgage Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as seller (the “Seller”).

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Purchaser, as depositor (in such capacity, the “Depositor”), Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and as asset representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”), Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”) and as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), pursuant to which the Purchaser will transfer the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein), together with certain other commercial, multifamily and/or manufactured housing community mortgage loans (collectively, the “Other Loans”), to a trust fund (the “Trust Fund”). In exchange for the Mortgage Loans and the Other Loans, the Trust Fund will issue, to or at the direction of the Depositor, certificates to be known as BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4 (collectively, the “Certificates”), and any Uncertificated Interests (if applicable).

For purposes of this Agreement, “Mortgage Loans” refers to the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (including as reflected in any footnotes to such exhibit) and “Mortgaged Properties” refers to the properties securing such Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller is selling one or more Co-sponsored Mortgage Loans, each such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is identified on Annex A to this Agreement. A “Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan” is (i) part of an entire Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or part of a Whole Loan, (ii) comprised of 2 or more separate Notes being sold to the Purchaser by two or more separate sellers (also referred to as Applicable Co-sponsors) as identified on Annex A to this Agreement, and (iii) if such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is part of a Whole Loan, comprised of the entire portion of such Whole Loan that is being contributed to the Trust (i.e. there may be other Notes evidencing Companion Loans that are not contributed to the Trust). “Applicable Co-sponsor” means, as to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, each seller of the subject Notes to the Purchaser, as identified on Annex A to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, although the term “Mortgage Loan” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Offering Documents means the entire such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, for the purposes of determining any rights or obligations of the Seller and the related Applicable Co-sponsor(s) with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Applicable Co-sponsor’s related mortgage loan purchase agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the term “Mortgage Loan” refers to the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) contributed to the Trust by such Applicable Co-sponsor and such promissory note(s) shall be treated like a separate Mortgage Loan.

The Purchaser and the Seller wish to prescribe the manner of sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser and in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, agree as follows:

SECTION 1        Sale and Conveyance of Mortgages; Possession of Mortgage File. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, representation or warranty (except as otherwise specifically set forth herein), subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan (other than any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”), including all interest and principal received or receivable on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding payments of principal and interest and other amounts due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-Off Date and excluding any Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loans).

In addition, on the Closing Date, solely in the event the initial Distribution Date occurs in February (except during a leap year) or March, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer (for deposit into the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account) (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Trust Fund the aggregate Initial Interest Deposit Amount with respect to those Mortgage Loans that accrue interest on an Actual/360 Basis, which Initial Interest Deposit Amount for each such Mortgage Loan shall represent an amount equal to (i) if the initial Distribution Date is in February, one day of interest (except during a leap year), and (ii) if the initial Distribution Date is in March, two days of interest (or one day of interest during a leap year), in each case, at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the related Cut-Off Date Balance of each such Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, no Initial Interest Deposit Amount will be due and owing if (i) the initial Distribution Date does not occur in February or March, or (ii) if the initial Distribution Date occurs in February during a leap year.

In addition, on the Closing Date, if one or more Mortgage Loans is identified opposite the Seller’s name on Annex B to this Agreement (which Mortgage Loans do not have a Due Date in the month of the first Distribution Date), the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer or the Certificate Administrator (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), for deposit into the account set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on behalf of the Seller and for the benefit of the Trust Fund, the Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount with respect to each such Mortgage Loan, which Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount shall represent an amount equal to one-month’s interest accrued with respect to each such Mortgage Loan at the related Net Mortgage Rate for the month preceding the month of the first Distribution Date.

Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Note, the Seller’s interest in the related Mortgage represented by the Note and the other contents of the related Mortgage File (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) will be vested in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee, and the ownership of records and documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than those to be held by the holder of any related Companion Loan

-2-

that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) prepared by or which come into the possession of the Seller shall (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) immediately vest in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee. In connection with the transfer pursuant to this Section 1 of any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, the Seller does hereby assign to the Purchaser all of its rights, title and interest (solely in its capacity as the holder of the subject Mortgage Loan) in, to and under the related Co-Lender Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the Seller does not assign any right, title or interest that it or any other party may have thereunder in its capacity as the holder of any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). The Seller’s assignment of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement.

The Purchaser will sell: (i) the Public Certificates to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Underwriters; (ii) the Private Certificates to the Initial Purchasers (the Initial Purchasers, collectively with the Underwriters, are referred to herein as the “Dealers”) specified in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Initial Purchasers; and (iii) if applicable, any classes of Loan-Specific Certificates pursuant to a related purchase agreement between the Purchaser and any applicable Loan-Specific Initial Purchasers identified therein.

The sale and conveyance of the Mortgage Loans is being conducted on an arms-length basis and upon commercially reasonable terms. As the consideration for the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser shall: (i) pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Seller or at the Seller’s direction that sum set forth in the funding schedule executed by the Seller and the Purchaser relating to the sale of the Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby (but subject to certain post-settlement adjustments for expenses incurred by the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Depositor and for which the Seller is specifically responsible); and (ii) if the Seller is listed on Annex C to this Agreement, cause any Uncertificated Interests or Class VRR Certificates identified on Annex C hereto opposite the Seller’s name to be registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in the name of the Seller.

The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2        Books and Records; Certain Funds Received After the Cut-Off Date. From and after the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, record title to each Mortgage (other than with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Note shall be transferred to the Trustee subject to and in accordance with this Agreement. Any funds due after the Cut-Off Date in connection with a Mortgage Loan received by the Seller shall be held in trust on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders) as the owner of such Mortgage Loan and shall be transferred promptly to the Certificate Administrator. All scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date but collected after the Cut-Off Date, and all recoveries and payments of principal and interest collected on or before the Cut-Off Date (only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-Off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall belong to, and shall be promptly remitted to, the Seller.

-3-

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Seller’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the sale of such Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser. The Seller intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser as a sale for tax purposes. Following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser, the Seller shall not take any actions inconsistent with the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser and its assignees.

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Purchaser’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the purchase of such Mortgage Loan by the Purchaser from the Seller. The Purchaser intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the Seller as a purchase for tax purposes. The Purchaser shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a set of records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the transfer of ownership of each Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Seller will receive the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 3        Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Additional Costs and Expenses. (a) The Purchaser hereby directs the Seller, and the Seller hereby agrees, such agreement effective upon the transfer of the Mortgage Loans as contemplated herein, to deliver to and deposit with (or to cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Custodian (on behalf of the Trustee), with copies (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to be delivered to the Master Servicer, on the dates set forth in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered by the Purchaser, or contemplated to be delivered by the Seller (whether at the direction of the Purchaser or otherwise), to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, with respect to the Mortgage Loans under Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and meeting all the requirements of such Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

With respect to letters of credit (exclusive of those relating to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer, and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall require the Master Servicer to hold, the original (or copy, if such original has been submitted by the Seller to the issuing bank to effect an assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer) for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, to the extent required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents)) and the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied any such delivery requirements by delivering with respect to any letter(s) of credit a copy thereof to the Custodian together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller certifying that such document has been delivered to the Master Servicer or an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that it holds the letter(s) of credit pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If a letter of credit

-4-

referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents, the Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Master Servicer within 90 days of the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(b)               Except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall deliver to and deposit with (or cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date: (i) a copy of the Mortgage File; (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan(s), (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any related asset summaries that were delivered to the Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Certificates, material notices related to tenant leases, and any related operating statements, financial statements, appraisals or similar reports) or any related Serviced Companion Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans or holders of interests therein, and (C) are in the possession or under the control of the Seller; and (iii) all unapplied Escrow Payments and reserve funds in the possession or under control of the Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans together with a statement indicating which Escrow Payments and reserve funds are allocable to each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3(b) shall not apply to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by any Mortgaged Property that is subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any such related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Seller or its designee shall, within 45 days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor for the transfer or assignment of such comfort letter or issuance of a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), with a copy of such notice or request to the Custodian (who shall include such document

-5-

in the related Mortgage File) and the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, deliver the original of such replacement comfort letter, new document or acknowledgement, as applicable, to the Custodian for inclusion in the Mortgage File.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver Mortgage Note(s) to the Custodian shall be limited to delivery to the Custodian of only the Mortgage Note(s) held by such Applicable Co-sponsor. With respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver the remaining portion of the related Mortgage File or any remaining document required to be delivered with respect thereto shall be joint and several, provided that any one of the Applicable Co-sponsors may deliver one Mortgage File (exclusive of the related Mortgage Notes) or one of any other remaining document required to be delivered with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan hereunder and under the mortgage loan purchase agreement(s) between the Purchaser and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s), and such delivery shall satisfy the corresponding delivery requirements for both the Seller and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s).

(e)               Upon written request from the Special Servicer, the Seller shall deliver a power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement to the Special Servicer, that permits the Special Servicer to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement actions by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 4        Treatment as a Security Agreement. Pursuant to Section 1 hereof, the Seller has conveyed to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the parties also intend and agree that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and in such event does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal or interest on such Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-Off Date, all other payments made in respect of such Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date) and all proceeds thereof, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser hypothecating and transferring such security interest in favor of the Trustee and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Trustee.

SECTION 5        Covenants of the Seller. The Seller covenants with the Purchaser as follows:

(a)               with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), it shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file, in

-6-

the appropriate public recording office for real property records or UCC financing statements, as appropriate, each related assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases, and each related UCC-3 financing statement referred to in the definition of Mortgage File, in each case in favor of the Trustee, as and to the extent contemplated under Section 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the recordation or filing of such assignments of Assignment of Leases, assignments of Mortgage and financing statements shall be paid by (or caused to be paid by) the Seller. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and the Seller shall record or file, or cause the recording or filing of, such substitute or corrected document or instrument, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to such third party (or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan);

(b)               as to each Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the Seller cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, it shall forward to the Custodian a copy of the original certified by the Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording. The Seller shall cause each assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above to reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the Seller or its designee, in which case the Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof;

(c)               except for actions that are the express responsibility of another party hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer, including effectuating the transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and any Serviced Companion Loan Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(c) shall not apply with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan;

(d)               the Seller shall provide the Master Servicer the initial data with respect to each Mortgage Loan for the CREFC^® Financial File and the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File that are required to be prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

-7-

(e)               if (during the period of time that the Underwriters are required, under applicable law, to deliver a prospectus related to the Public Certificates in connection with sales of the Public Certificates by an Underwriter or a dealer) the Seller has obtained actual knowledge of undisclosed or corrected information related to an event that occurred prior to the Closing Date, which event causes there to be an untrue statement of a material fact with respect to the Seller Information (as such term is defined in the Indemnification Agreement) in the Prospectus, the Offering Circular or any Loan-Specific Offering Circular (the Prospectus, the Offering Circular and any Loan-Specific Offering Circular are collectively referred to herein as the “Offering Documents”), or causes there to be an omission to state therein a material fact with respect to the Seller Information required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein with respect to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Seller shall promptly notify the Dealers and the Depositor. If as a result of any such event the Dealers’ legal counsel determines that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Documents in order to correct the untrue statement, or to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or to make the Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to the Seller Information) at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Dealers, such amendments or supplements to the Offering Documents as may be necessary so that the Seller Information in the Offering Documents, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law. (All capitalized terms used in this Section 5(e) and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date for the Certificates, between, among others, the Dealers, the Seller and the Depositor (the “Indemnification Agreement” and, together with this Agreement, the “Operative Documents”).) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall have no affirmative obligation to monitor the performance of the Mortgage Loans or any changes in condition or circumstance of any Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor, guarantor or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date in connection with its obligations under this Section 5(e);

(f)                for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Seller shall: (1) provide the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and any Form 8-K Disclosure Information for which the Seller is responsible as indicated on Exhibit U, Exhibit V and Exhibit Z to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that, in connection with providing Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and the Seller’s reporting obligations under Item 1119 of Regulation AB, upon reasonable request by the Seller, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a list of all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any other Servicing Function Participant; and (2) reasonably cooperate with each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, upon the reasonable request of such party, by providing all Mortgage Loan related documents, data and information in the possession of the Seller at or prior to the Closing Date and on the date of such request and necessary for the ongoing compliance by the Depositor and the Trust with the requirements of Form 10-D with respect to Items 1111 and 1125 of Regulation AB; provided, that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the

-8-

related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(g)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered an electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence File (including, if applicable, any additional documents that the Seller believes should be included to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform an Asset Review on such Mortgage Loan; provided that such documents are clearly labeled and identified) to the Designated Site, each such Diligence File being organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor;

(h)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Depositor (with a copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) with a certification by an authorized officer of the Seller, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, that the electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan uploaded to the Designated Site contains all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor, which such certification or copies thereof may be sent via email;

(i)                 upon written request of the Asset Representations Reviewer (in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for a Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan), the Seller shall provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written request (which time period may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the Seller and the Asset Representations Reviewer), such documents requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer and in the possession of the Seller relating to each such Delinquent Loan to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete any Test for each such Delinquent Loan, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(j)                 upon the completion of an Asset Review with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan and receipt by the Seller of a written invoice from the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Seller shall pay to the Asset Representations Reviewer, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such written invoice, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to such Delinquent Loan as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to adjustment with respect to any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan(s), as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(k)               if the Preliminary Asset Review Report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the Seller shall have 90 days

-9-

from receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report. If the Seller elects to refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report, the Seller shall provide to the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test;

(l)                 the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event an Enforcing Party elects a dispute resolution method pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Seller shall abide by the selected dispute resolution method and otherwise comply with the terms and provisions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) related to the resolution method;

(m)             the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages and other liabilities, including without limitation the costs of investigation, legal defense and any amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation arising out of or based upon (i) any failure of the Seller to pay the fees described under Section 5(j) above within 90 days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) any failure by the Seller to provide all documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to Sections 5(g) and 5(i) of this Agreement and under the definition of “Diligence File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within 60 days of the Closing Date (or such later date specified herein or in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); and

(n)               with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is (or may become pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement) part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan, (x) in the event that the Closing Date occurs on or prior to the closing date of the related Outside Securitization Trust (such event, the “Outside Securitization”), the Seller shall provide (or cause to be provided) to the Depositor (and counsel thereto) and the Certificate Administrator (i) written notice in a timely manner of (but no later than three (3) Business Days prior to) the closing date of such Outside Securitization, and (ii) no later than one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization, a copy of the Outside Servicing Agreement in an EDGAR-compatible format, and (y) in the event that the Closing Date occurs after the closing date of the Outside Securitization, the Seller shall provide, or cause the Outside Depositor to provide, the Depositor (and counsel thereto) with a copy of the related Outside Servicing Agreement (together with any amendments thereto) in an EDGAR-compatible format by the later of (i) two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and (ii) one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization.

SECTION 6        Representations and Warranties.

(a)               The Seller represents and warrants to the Purchaser as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date that:

(i)                                The Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation with full power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business, is duly qualified as a foreign organization in good standing in all

-10-

jurisdictions to the extent such qualification is necessary to hold and sell the Mortgage Loans or otherwise comply with its obligations under this Agreement except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations hereunder, and the Seller has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution and delivery of, and performance under, the Operative Documents and has duly executed and delivered each Operative Document, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform under each Operative Document and all the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, but not limited to, the power and authority to sell, assign, transfer, set over and convey the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement;

(ii)                             Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser, this Agreement will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (B) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (C) public policy considerations underlying the securities laws, to the extent that such public policy considerations limit the enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement that purport to provide indemnification for securities laws liabilities;

(iii)                          The execution and delivery of each Operative Document by the Seller and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which the Seller is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Seller’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Seller, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Seller’s assets or property, in each case, which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents;

(iv)                         There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Seller’s knowledge, threatened against the Seller in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of the Mortgage Loans or the ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by each Operative Document;

(v)                            The Seller is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that, in the Seller’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Seller or its properties or might have consequences that, in the Seller’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

-11-

(vi)                         No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of, or compliance by the Seller with, each Operative Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other than those which have been obtained by the Seller and those filings and recordings of Loan Documents and assignments thereof that are contemplated by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be completed after the Closing Date;

(vii)                      The transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser is not subject to bulk transfer laws or any similar statutory provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction; and

(viii)        The Seller is solvent, and the sale of the Mortgage Loans hereunder will not cause it to become insolvent; and the sale of the Mortgage Loans is not undertaken by the Seller with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of the Seller’s creditors.

(b)               The Purchaser represents and warrants to the Seller as of the Closing Date that:

(i)                                The Purchaser is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with full corporate power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business, is duly qualified as a foreign corporation in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of its property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Purchaser to perform its obligations hereunder, and the Purchaser has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it, and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all the transactions contemplated hereby;

(ii)                             Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller, this Agreement will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);

(iii)                          The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser and the performance of its obligations hereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which the Purchaser is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Purchaser’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Purchaser, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Purchaser’s assets or property, in each case which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Purchaser to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

-12-

(iv)                         There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against the Purchaser in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of this Agreement or any action taken in connection with the obligations of the Purchaser contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the Purchaser to perform under the terms of this Agreement;

(v)                            The Purchaser is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Purchaser or its properties or might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

(vi)                         No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of, or compliance by the Purchaser with, this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than those that have been obtained by the Purchaser; and

(vii)                      The Purchaser has (i) prepared a report on Form ABS-15G under the Exchange Act (the “Form 15G”) that attaches the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report (as defined herein) (a final draft of which Form 15G was provided to the Seller at least 5 business days before the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates); and (ii) furnished the Form 15G to the Commission (as defined herein) on EDGAR at least 5 business days before the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates as required by Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act.

(c)               The Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to the Mortgage Loans (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) set forth on Exhibit B to this Agreement as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit B to this Agreement, which representations and warranties are subject to the exceptions thereto set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement. If the Seller’s Mortgage Loans contain a related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, then such Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to such related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan set forth on Exhibit I to this Agreement (if any) as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit I to this Agreement.

(d)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, if (i) any party thereto (other than the Asset Representations Reviewer) discovers or receives notice alleging that any document required to be included in a Mortgage File by (or on behalf of) the Seller has not been properly executed, is missing, contains information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or does not appear to be regular on its face (each, a “Document Defect”), or discovers or receives notice alleging a breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller made pursuant to Section 6(c) of this Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan (a “Breach”) or (ii) the Special Servicer or the

-13-

Purchaser receives a Repurchase Request, then such party is required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller.

(e)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Enforcing Servicer is required to determine whether any such Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan materially and adversely affects, or such Document Defect is deemed in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to materially and adversely affect, the value of the Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or the interests of the Trustee or any Certificateholder in the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or causes any Mortgage Loan to fail to be a Qualified Mortgage (any such Document Defect shall constitute a “Material Document Defect” and any such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach”; and a Material Breach and/or a Material Document Defect, as the case may be, shall constitute a “Material Defect”). If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect, then the Enforcing Servicer will be required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller, demanding that the Seller cure such Material Defect. Promptly upon becoming aware of any such Material Defect (including, without limitation, through a written notice given by any party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as provided above if the Document Defect or Breach identified therein is a Material Defect), the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the Seller’s (x) discovery of, and (y) receipt of notice of and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to such Material Defect (or, in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days from any party discovering such Material Defect), cure the same in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of any losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses associated therewith (including, if applicable, the amount of any fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer payable pursuant to Section 5(j) above attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan)) or, if such Material Defect cannot be cured within such 90-day period, the Seller shall (before the end of such 90-day period) either: (i) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property (or the Trust Fund’s interest therein) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account; or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date and in no event shall any such substitution be effected with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) and pay the Master Servicer, for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith; provided, that the Seller may not repurchase any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan without repurchasing its Mortgage Loan that is part of the same Whole Loan (so long as there is a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan); and provided, further, however, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such 90-day period, then the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure (or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as described above) it being understood and agreed that, in connection with the Seller’s receiving such additional 90-day period, the Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day period and what actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the Seller anticipates that such Material Defect

-14-

will be cured within such additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the initial 90-day period and any such additional 90-day period solely due to the failure of the Seller to have received the recorded document, then the Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect so long as the Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator every 30 days thereafter that the Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date. Any such repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. The Seller shall have no obligation to monitor the Mortgage Loans regarding the existence of a Breach or a Document Defect, but if the Seller discovers a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, it will notify the Purchaser. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-Off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and shall be required, under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller promptly following receipt. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. No mortgage loan may be substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Section 6(e) if the Mortgage Loan to be replaced was itself a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that had replaced a prior Mortgage Loan, in which case, absent a cure (including by the making of a Loss of Value Payment pursuant to the following paragraph) of the relevant Material Defect, the affected Mortgage Loan will be required to be repurchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), in lieu of the Seller performing its obligations with respect to any Material Defect as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to the extent that the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer (subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder or, in the case of any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative so long as it is the applicable Directing Holder) as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, are able to agree upon a cash payment payable by the Seller to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, that would be deemed sufficient to compensate the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, for a Material Defect (a “Loss of Value Payment”), the Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such Loss of Value Payment to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable; provided that a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage, may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment; and provided, further, that the Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Loss of Value Payment relates to a Co-sponsored

-15-

Mortgage Loan, the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement). Upon its making a Loss of Value Payment, the Seller shall be deemed to have cured the subject Material Defect in all respects. Provided that such Loss of Value Payment is made, this paragraph describes the sole remedy available to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, and its assignees regarding any such Material Defect, and the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase or replace the affected Mortgage Loan or otherwise cure such Material Defect. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, provided that, prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Seller or the Enforcing Servicer, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and within the time frames set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this Section 6(e) (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan).

If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as described above (a “Defective Mortgage Loan”), (y) such Defective Mortgage Loan is part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and (z) the applicable Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Material Defect as to the other Mortgage Loan(s) that are a part of such Cross-Collateralized Group (the “Other Crossed Loans”) (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Document Defect or Breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to each such Other Crossed Loan for purposes of the above provisions, and the Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such Other Crossed Loan in accordance with the provisions above unless, in the case of such Breach or Document Defect, as applicable:

(A) the Seller (at its expense) delivers or causes to be delivered to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Seller’s repurchase or replacement of only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Defect has actually occurred without regard to the provisions of this paragraph (the “Affected Loan(s)”) and the operation of the remaining provisions of this Section 6(e) (i) will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Certificate is outstanding and (ii) will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code); and

(B)  each of the following conditions would be satisfied if the Seller were to repurchase or replace only the Affected Loans and not the Other Crossed Loans:

(1)   the debt service coverage ratio for such Other Crossed Loan(s) (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not less than the lesser of (A) 0.10x below the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus and (B) the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-

-16-

Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) for the four preceding calendar quarters preceding the repurchase or replacement;

(2)   the loan-to-value ratio for the Other Crossed Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the greatest of (A) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus plus 10%, (B) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) at the time of repurchase or replacement and (C) 75%; and

(3)   either (x) the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group will not impair the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group or (y) the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans have been modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that removes any threat of impairment of the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group as a result of the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group.

The determination of the Enforcing Servicer as to whether the conditions set forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error on the Certificateholders, other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Seller. The Enforcing Servicer will be entitled to cause to be delivered, or direct the Seller to (in which case the Seller shall) cause to be delivered, to the Enforcing Servicer an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause (B)(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the Seller if the scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the Seller and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in each case).

With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan that forms a part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and as to which the conditions described in the second preceding paragraph are satisfied, such that the Trust Fund will continue to hold the Other Crossed Loans, the Seller and the Depositor agree to forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each is permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan(s) still held by the Trust Fund. If the exercise of remedies by one such party would impair the ability of the other such party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan or the Other Crossed Loans, as the case may be, held by the other such party, then both parties shall forbear from exercising such remedies unless and until the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans can be modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment as a result of the

-17-

exercise of remedies. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing any of the Mortgage Loans that form a Cross-Collateralized Group shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Loan Documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. All other terms of the Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect, without any modification thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall be binding on all future holders of each Mortgage Loan that forms part of a Cross-Collateralized Group.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that, to the extent necessary and appropriate, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will execute (pursuant to a limited power of attorney provided by the Trustee who will not be liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any of its agents or subcontractors) the modification of the Loan Documents that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment of the ability of the Seller or the Trust Fund to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loan(s) held by such party resulting from the exercise of remedies by the other such party. All costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer with respect to any Cross-Collateralized Group pursuant to this paragraph and the first, second and third preceding paragraphs shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as provided for in Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and such advances and interest thereon shall be included in the calculation of Purchase Price for the Affected Loan(s) to be repurchased or replaced.

Subject to the Seller’s right to cure set forth above in this Section 6(e), and further subject to Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, failure of the Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8) and (18) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except such deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

If there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties securing a Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase such Mortgage Loan if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property(ies) are, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the related Loan Documents and the Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such

-18-

release would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

With respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees that if a “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) exists under the related Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan included in the related Outside Securitization Trust, and such Outside Serviced Companion Loan is repurchased by or on behalf of such Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) from the related Outside Securitization Trust as a result of such “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in such Outside Servicing Agreement), then the Seller shall repurchase such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) related solely to the promissory note for such Outside Serviced Companion Loan.

(f)                In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or more Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the repurchasing entity evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File (including, without limitation, the Servicing File) and other documents and all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the repurchasing or substituting entity or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and reconveyance of the Mortgage Loan and the security therefor to the Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. In the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan by the Seller as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian the related Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of any deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) and deliver or cause the delivery of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Upon any substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall become part of the Trust Fund and be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

-19-

(g)               The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Notes or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files.

(h)               Each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other party upon discovery of any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement. The Seller’s obligation to cure any Material Defect or to repurchase, or substitute for, or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to, any affected Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a breach of any of the Seller’s representations or warranties contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement or a Document Defect with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(i)                 The Seller shall promptly notify the Depositor if (i) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request (other than from the Depositor), (ii) the Seller repurchases or replaces a Mortgage Loan, (iii) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal (other than from the Depositor) or (iv) the Seller rejects or disputes any Repurchase Request. Each such notice shall be given no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after (A) with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding sentence, receipt of a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, as applicable, and (B) with respect to clauses (ii) and (iv) of the preceding sentence, the occurrence of the event giving rise to the requirement for such notice, and shall include (1) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan and the person making the Repurchase Request, (2) the date (x) such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal was received, (y) the related Mortgage Loan was repurchased or replaced or (z) the Repurchase Request was rejected or disputed, as applicable, and (3) if known, the basis for (x) the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) or (y) any rejection or dispute of a Repurchase Request, as applicable.

The Seller shall provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator the Seller’s “Central Index Key” number assigned by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and a true, correct and complete copy of the relevant portions of any Form ABS-15G that the Seller is required to file with the Commission under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Mortgage Loans, on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days before the date such Form ABS-15G is required to be filed with the Commission.

In addition, the Seller shall provide the Depositor, upon request, such other information in its possession as would permit the Depositor to comply with its obligations under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act to disclose fulfilled and unfulfilled repurchase requests. Any such information requested shall be provided as promptly as practicable after such request is made.

The Seller agrees that no Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider will be required to provide information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice that is protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. In addition, the Seller hereby acknowledges that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is so provided only to assist the Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law

-20-

or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to this Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.

Each party hereto agrees that the receipt of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice or the delivery of any notice required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6(i) shall not, in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of, receipt of notice of, or knowledge of the Seller of, any Material Defect.

Each party hereto agrees and acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, the “Central Index Key” number of the Trust Fund is 0002016125.

“Repurchase Communication” means, for purposes of this Section 6(i) only, any communication, whether oral or written, which need not be in any specific form.

(j)                 The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that it and the Purchaser have engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ernst & Young LLP (the “Accounting Firms”) to perform “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans and to prepare one or more “third-party due diligence reports” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act) (collectively, the “Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report”) in connection therewith. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Depositor that, except with respect to the Accounting Firms and the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report, the Seller, as of the Closing Date, (A) has not obtained any “third-party due diligence report” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act), and (B) has not retained any third party to engage in, and will not retain any third party to engage in, any activity that constitutes “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans, unless, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (B) and following the Closing Date, the Seller (i) provides prior written notice to the Depositor, (ii) requires the third-party due diligence provider to comply with its obligations under Section 15E(s)(4)(B) of, and Rule 17g-10 under, the Exchange Act (including with respect to the timely delivery to any applicable NRSRO and to the Depositor of a Form ABS Due Diligence-15E), and (iii) facilitates the Depositor’s compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3)(iii)(E) under the Exchange Act, with respect thereto. The Seller further represents and warrants that no portion of the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report contains, with respect to the information contained therein with respect to the Mortgage Loans, any names, addresses, other personal identifiers or zip codes with respect to any individuals, or any other personally identifiable or other information that would be associated with an individual, including without limitation any “nonpublic personal information” within the meaning of Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. The Underwriters and Initial Purchasers are third-party beneficiaries of the provisions set forth in this Section 6(j).

(k)               The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is not the Purchaser), the related Outside Servicing Agreement contains, or at the time such Outside Servicing Agreement is executed and delivered will contain, terms and provisions (or, to the extent

-21-

specified on Exhibit E to this Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement contains terms and provisions (and, to the extent contained in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the applicable documents provide that such terms and provisions are deemed included by reference into the related Outside Servicing Agreement)) that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement. The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is the Purchaser), the related Co-Lender Agreement does not contain any terms or provisions that conflict with (or that will conflict with) any terms or provisions in the related Outside Servicing Agreement that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement.

SECTION 7        Review of Mortgage File. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Custodian will be required to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and if it finds any document or documents not to have been properly executed, or to be missing or to be defective on its face in any material respect, to notify the Purchaser, which shall promptly notify the Seller.

SECTION 8        Conditions to Closing. The obligation of the Seller to sell the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the Seller having received the consideration for the Mortgage Loans as contemplated by Section 1 of this Agreement. The obligations of the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the satisfaction, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the following conditions:

(a)               Each of the obligations of the Seller required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall have been duly performed and complied with and all of the representations and warranties of the Seller under this Agreement shall, subject to any applicable exceptions set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement, be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date or as of such other date as of which such representation is made under the terms of Exhibit B to this Agreement, and no event shall have occurred as of the Closing Date which would constitute a default on the part of the Seller under this Agreement, and the Purchaser shall have received a certificate to the foregoing effect signed by the Seller substantially in the form of Exhibit D to this Agreement.

(b)               The Pooling and Servicing Agreement (to the extent it affects the obligations of the Seller hereunder), in such form as is agreed upon and acceptable to the Purchaser, the Seller, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and their respective counsel in their reasonable discretion, shall be duly executed and delivered by all signatories as required pursuant to the terms thereof.

(c)               The Purchaser shall have received the following additional closing documents:

-22-

(ii)                             a certificate as of a recent date of the applicable regulatory body or governmental agency to the effect that the Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in the jurisdiction of its formation;

(iii)                          an officer’s certificate of the Seller in form reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and each Rating Agency;

(iv)                         an opinion of counsel of the Seller, subject to customary exceptions and carve-outs, in form reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and each Rating Agency; and

(v)                            a letter from counsel of the Seller substantially to the effect that (a) nothing has come to such counsel’s attention that would lead such counsel to believe that the agreed upon sections of the Preliminary Prospectus (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Offering Circular, any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular or any final Loan-Specific Offering Circular, in each case as of the date thereof or as of the Closing Date (or, in the case of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular or any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular, solely as of the time of sale) contained or contain, as applicable, with respect to the Seller Information, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein relating to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (b) the Seller Information in the Prospectus appears to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of Regulation AB.

(d)               The Public Certificates shall have been concurrently issued and sold pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement. The Private Certificates shall have been concurrently issued and sold pursuant to the terms of the Certificate Purchase Agreement.

SECTION 21    No Partnership. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed as creating an agency relationship between the Purchaser and the Seller and neither party shall take any action which could reasonably lead a third party to assume that it has the authority to bind the other party or make commitments on such party’s behalf.

-26-

SECTION 22    Miscellaneous. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

The 620 W 153rd Street mortgage loan is evidenced by three promissory notes:  (i) note A-1-1, with an outstanding principal balance of $35,000,000 as of the cut-off date, as to which Bank of Montreal is acting as mortgage loan seller; (ii) note A-1-5, with an outstanding principal balance of $10,000,000 as of the cut-off date, as to which Starwood Mortgage Capital LLC is acting as mortgage loan seller; and (iii) note A-2-1, with an outstanding principal balance of $25,000,000 as of the cut-off date, as to which Argentic Real Estate Finance 2 LLC is acting as mortgage loan seller.

EXHIBIT B

MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

(1) Whole Loan; Ownership of Mortgage Loans. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a Mortgage Loan. Each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is a portion of a whole loan evidenced by a Mortgage Note. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to the Purchaser, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller or, with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the trustee for the related Other Securitization Trust), participation or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. The Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Mortgage Loan, and the assignment to the Purchaser constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Mortgage Loan.

(2) Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Mortgage Loan documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment premium/yield maintenance charges) may be further limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Mortgage Loan documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the Mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Mortgage Loan documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by Seller in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, that would deny the Mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents.

Exhibit B-1

(3) Mortgage Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

(4) Hospitality Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan that is secured by a hospitality property operated pursuant to a franchise agreement includes an executed comfort letter or similar agreement signed by the Mortgagor and franchisor of such property enforceable by the Issuing Entity against such franchisor, either directly or as an assignee of the originator. The Mortgage or related security agreement for each Mortgage Loan secured by a hospitality property creates a security interest in the revenues of such property for which a UCC financing statement has been filed in the appropriate filing office.

(5) Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except by written instruments set forth in the related Mortgage File or as otherwise provided in the related Mortgage Loan documents (a)(1) there has been no forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan which such forbearance, waiver or modification relates to the COVID-19 emergency, (2) as of the Cut-Off Date, to the knowledge of the Seller, after due inquiry, there has been no written request from the related Mortgagor for a forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such request relates to the COVID-19 emergency and (3) other than as related to the COVID-19 emergency, the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Mortgage Loan guaranty and related Mortgage Loan documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the Mortgagor nor the guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the Mortgage Loan. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, except as contained in a written document included in the Mortgage File, there have been no modifications, amendments or waivers, that could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on such Mortgage Loan consented to by the Seller on or after the Cut-Off Date.

(6) Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each endorsement or assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases from the Seller or its affiliate is in recordable form (but for the insertion of the name of the assignee and any related recording information which is not yet available to the Seller) and constitutes a legal, valid and binding endorsement or assignment from the Seller, or its affiliate, as applicable. Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee (or if identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, leasehold) interest in the Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such

Exhibit B-2

Mortgage Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below) and the exceptions to paragraph 7 below (each such exception, a “Title Exception”)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions) as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy (as described below), and as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(7) Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy or a “marked up” commitment, in each case with escrow instructions and binding on the title insurer) (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record specifically identified in the Title Policy; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property; (f) if the related Mortgage Loan constitutes a cross collateralized Mortgage Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for another Mortgage Loan contained in the same cross collateralized group of Mortgage Loans, and (g) condominium declarations of record and identified in such Title Policy, provided that none of clauses (a) through (g), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or principal use of the Mortgaged Property, the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, or the current ability of the related Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). For purposes of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the

Exhibit B-3

date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon. Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the second preceding sentence none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of the Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy. Each Title Policy contains no exclusion for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such affirmative insurance is not available in which case such exclusion may exist), that the Mortgaged Property shown on the survey is the same as the property legally described in the Mortgage.

(8) Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Mortgage Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan, as of the Cut-Off Date there are no subordinate mortgages or junior mortgage liens encumbering the related Mortgaged Property other than Permitted Encumbrances, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (6) above), and equipment and other personal property financing. The Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor other than as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B.

(9) Assignment of Leases and Rents. There exists as part of the related Mortgage File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions (and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, subject to the related Assignment of Leases constituting security for the entire Whole Loan), each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to applicable law and the Standard Qualifications, provides that, upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan, a receiver may be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related Mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the Mortgagee.

(10) Financing Statements. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each Mortgage Loan or related security agreement establishes a valid security interest in, and a UCC-1 financing statement has been filed and/or recorded (or, in the case of fixtures, the Mortgage constitutes a fixture filing) in all places necessary at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan (or, if not filed and/or recorded, has submitted or caused to be submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording) to perfect a valid security interest in, the personal property (creation and perfection of which is governed by the UCC) owned by the

Exhibit B-4

Mortgagor and necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property in its current use other than (1) non-material personal property, (2) personal property subject to purchase money security interests and (3) personal property that is leased equipment. Each UCC-1 financing statement, if any, filed with respect to personal property constituting a part of the related Mortgaged Property and each UCC-3 assignment, if any, filed with respect to such financing statement was in suitable form for filing in the filing office in which such financing statement was filed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(11) Condition of Property. The Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six months of origination of the Mortgage Loan and within twelve months of the Cut-Off Date.

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan no more than twelve months prior to the Cut-Off Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the Closing Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than (i) deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination and (ii) any damage fully covered by insurance) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan.

(12) Taxes and Assessments. As of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, all taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges) due with respect to the Mortgaged Property (excluding any related personal property) securing a Mortgage Loan that is or could become a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that became due and owing prior to the Cut-Off Date with respect to each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or, if the appropriate amount of such taxes or charges is being appealed or is otherwise in dispute, the unpaid taxes or charges are covered by an escrow of funds or other security sufficient to pay such tax or charge and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon.

(13) Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding pending and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the date of origination and as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding threatened for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property.

(14) Actions Concerning Mortgage Loan. To the Seller’s knowledge, based on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7), an engineering report or property condition

Exhibit B-5

assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), as of origination there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Mortgage Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage Loan documents; (f) the current ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service such Mortgage Loan; or (g) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property.

(15) Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and escrow payments currently required to be escrowed with the Mortgagee pursuant to each Mortgage Loan (including capital improvements and environmental remediation reserves) are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no delinquencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required under the related Mortgage Loan documents are being conveyed by the Seller to the depositor or its servicer (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the depositor under the related Outside Servicing Agreement or the related Outside Servicer for the related Other Securitization Trust).

(16) No Holdbacks. The principal amount of the Mortgage Loan stated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule has been fully disbursed as of the Closing Date and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs, occupancy, performance or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by the Seller to merit such holdback).

(17) Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (as defined below), in an amount (subject to customary deductibles) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

Exhibit B-6

“Insurance Ratings Requirements” means either (1) a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” from S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, or (2) the Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements. “Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements” means insurance provided by a syndicate of insurers, as to which (i) if such syndicate consists of 5 or more members, at least 60% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 40% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, and (ii) if such syndicate consists of 4 or fewer members, at least 75% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 25% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with respect to each Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in an amount equal to the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program, plus such additional excess flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders originating mortgage loans for securitization.

If the Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor and included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements.

The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property

Exhibit B-7

damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the probable maximum loss or scenario expected loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the PML would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC in an amount not less than 100% of the PML.

The Mortgage Loan documents require insurance proceeds (or an amount equal to such insurance proceeds) in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, the Mortgagee (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section that are required by the Mortgage Loan documents to be paid as of the Cut-Off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the Mortgagee under the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the trustee (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the Mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by the Seller.

(18) Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Parcels. Based solely on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7) and survey, if any, an engineering report or property condition assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), each Mortgaged

Exhibit B-8

Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has permanent access from a recorded easement or right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and other utilities necessary for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, all of which are adequate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been made or is required to be made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax parcels (or the Mortgage Loan documents so require such application in the future), in which case the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which the Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax parcels are created.

(19) No Encroachments. To the Seller’s knowledge based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the Title Policy obtained in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan, and except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the current marketability or principal use of the Mortgaged Property: (a) all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; (b) no material improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; and (c) no material improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy.

(20) No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Mortgage Loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date) or an equity participation by the Seller.

(21) REMIC. The Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Mortgage Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and (B) either: (a) such Mortgage Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including permanently affixed buildings and structural components, such as wiring, plumbing systems and central heating and air-conditioning systems, that are integrated into such buildings, serve such buildings in their passive functions and do not produce or contribute to the production of income other than consideration for the use or occupancy of space, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Mortgage Loan was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date or (ii) at the Closing

Exhibit B-9

Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Closing Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Mortgage Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Mortgage Loan will not be considered “significantly modified” solely by reason of the borrower having been granted a COVID-19 related forbearance provided that: (a) such Mortgage Loan forbearance is covered by Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12) by reason of satisfying the requirements for such coverage stated in Section 5.02(2) of Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12); and (b) the Seller identifies such Mortgage Loan and provides (x) the date on which such forbearance was granted, (y) the length in months of the forbearance, and (z) how the payments in forbearance will be paid (that is, by extension of maturity, change of amortization schedule, etc.). Any prepayment premiums and yield maintenance charges applicable to the Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph will have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

(22) Compliance with Usury Laws. The mortgage rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) of such Mortgage Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(23) Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Cut-Off Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Mortgage Loan by the Issuing Entity.

(24) Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related Mortgagee.

Exhibit B-10

(25) Local Law Compliance. To the Seller’s knowledge, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, a survey, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan are in material compliance with applicable laws, zoning ordinances, rules, covenants, and restrictions (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) governing the occupancy, use, and operation of such Mortgaged Property or constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure and any non-conformity with zoning laws constitutes a legal non-conforming use or structure which does not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of such Mortgaged Property. In the event of casualty or destruction, (a) the Mortgaged Property may be restored or repaired to the full extent necessary to maintain the use of the structure immediately prior to such casualty or destruction, (b) law and ordinance insurance coverage has been obtained for the Mortgaged Property in amounts customarily required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, (c) title insurance policy coverage has been obtained with respect to any non-conforming use or structure, or (d) the inability to restore the Mortgaged Property to the full extent of the use or structure immediately prior to the casualty would not materially and adversely affect the use or operation of such Mortgaged Property. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

(26) Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents that it will keep all material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals necessary for the operation of the Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the Seller’s knowledge based upon any of a letter from any government authorities, zoning consultant’s report or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization; all such material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals are in effect or the failure to obtain or maintain such material licenses, permits, franchises or certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals does not materially and adversely affect the use and/or operation of the Mortgaged Property as it was used and operated as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan or the rights of a holder of the related Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable regulations, zoning and building laws.

(27) Recourse Obligations. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan (a) provide that such Mortgage Loan becomes full recourse to the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis) in any of the following events (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) if any petition for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation

Exhibit B-11

pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, will be filed by, consented to, or acquiesced in by, the Mortgagor; (ii) the Mortgagor or guarantor will have solicited or caused to be solicited petitioning creditors to cause an involuntary bankruptcy filing with respect to the Mortgagor or (iii) transfers of either the Mortgaged Property or controlling equity interests in the Mortgagor made in violation of the Mortgage Loan documents; and (b) contains provisions for recourse against the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis), for losses and damages resulting from the following (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) the Mortgagor’s misappropriation of rents after an event of default, security deposits, insurance proceeds, or condemnation awards; (ii) the Mortgagor’s fraud or intentional material misrepresentation; (iii) breaches of the environmental covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents; or (iv) the Mortgagor’s commission of intentional material physical waste at the Mortgaged Property (but, in some cases, only to the extent there is sufficient cash flow generated by the related Mortgaged Property to prevent such waste).

(28) Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Mortgage Loan documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial defeasance (as described in paragraph 33), in each case of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance (defined in paragraph 33 below), (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation. With respect to any partial release (including in connection with any partial Defeasance) under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) and (ii) would not cause the subject Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the Mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make

Exhibit B-12

a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions.

In the case of any Mortgage Loan, in the event of a condemnation or taking of any portion of a Mortgaged Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, unless an opinion of counsel is delivered as specified in clause (y) of the preceding paragraph, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, the condemnation proceeds or the award from any such taking may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans).

No such Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross collateralized with another Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties or a portion thereof, including due to a partial condemnation, other than in compliance with the loan-to-value ratio and other requirements of the REMIC Provisions.

(29) Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage Loan with (a) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, (b) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls (or maintenance schedules in the case of Mortgage Loans secured by residential cooperative properties) for properties that have any individual lease which accounts for more than 5% of the in-place base rent, and (c) annual financial statements.

(30) Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Mortgage Loan over $20 million, as of origination the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 and the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015 (collectively referred to as “TRIPRA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the Mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIPRA, or damages related thereto, except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by commercial availability on commercially reasonable terms, or as otherwise indicated on Exhibit C; provided, that if TRIPRA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then,

Exhibit B-13

provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Mortgage Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor will not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Mortgage Loan documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance) at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount.

(31) Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Mortgage Loan contains a “due-on-sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the Mortgagee which are customarily acceptable to the Seller, including, but not limited to, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Mortgage Loan documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold, other than as related to (i) family and estate planning transfers or transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (iii) transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in a Mortgagor, (iv) transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Mortgage Loan documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (v) transfers of common stock in publicly traded companies or (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraphs 28 and 33 herein, or (vii) by reason of any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B, or future permitted mezzanine debt as set forth on Schedule B-2 to this Exhibit B or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan of any Mortgage Loan or any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (ii) purchase money security interests (iii) any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-3 to this Exhibit B or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents provide that to the extent any Rating Agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

(32) Single-Purpose Entity. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Mortgage Loan is outstanding. Each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-Off Date Balance of $30 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-

Exhibit B-14

consolidation of the Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” means an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents and the related Mortgage Loan documents (or if the Mortgage Loan has a Cut-Off Date Balance equal to $10 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Mortgage Loan documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Mortgage Loan documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Mortgage Loan documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with the related Mortgage Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

(33) Defeasance. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that, pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, can be defeased (a “Defeasance”), (i) the Mortgage Loan documents provide for defeasance as a unilateral right of the Mortgagor, subject to satisfaction of conditions specified in the Mortgage Loan documents; (ii) the Mortgage Loan cannot be defeased within two years after the Closing Date; (iii) the Mortgagor is permitted to pledge only United States “government securities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), the revenues from which will, in the case of a full Defeasance, be sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Loan when due, including the entire remaining principal balance on the maturity date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) or, if the Mortgage Loan is an ARD Mortgage Loan, the entire principal balance outstanding on the Anticipated Repayment Date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium), and if the Mortgage Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (A) 110% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and (B) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; (iv) the defeasance collateral is not permitted to be subject to prepayment, call, or early redemption; (v) the Mortgagor is required to provide a certification from an independent certified public accountant that the collateral is sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note as set forth in clause (iii) above; (vi) the defeased note and the defeasance collateral are required to be assumed by a Single-Purpose Entity; (vii) the Mortgagor is required to provide an opinion of counsel that the Trustee has a perfected security interest in such collateral prior to any other claim or interest; and (viii) the Mortgagor is required to pay all rating agency fees associated with defeasance (if rating confirmation is a specific condition precedent thereto) and all other reasonable expenses associated with defeasance, including, but not limited to, accountant’s fees and opinions of counsel.

Exhibit B-15

(34) Fixed Interest Rates. Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except in the case of ARD Mortgage Loans and situations where default interest is imposed.

(35) Ground Leases. For purposes of this Exhibit B, a “Ground Lease” means a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a Ground Leasehold estate in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of the Seller, its successors and assigns (collectively, the “Ground Lease and Related Documents”), the Seller represents and warrants that:

(a) The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease and Related Documents permit the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and do not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage. No material change in the terms of the Ground Lease had occurred since the origination of the Mortgage Loan, except by any written instruments which are included in the related Mortgage File;

(b) The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Mortgage File (or in such Ground Lease and Related Documents) that the Ground Lease may not be amended, modified, canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee;

(c) The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Mortgage Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Mortgage Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

(d) The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any interests, estates, liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions; or (ii) is the subject of a subordination, non-disturbance or attornment agreement or similar agreement to which the Mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest is subject;

Exhibit B-16

(e) Subject to the notice requirements of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, the Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid), and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid);

(f) The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Closing Date;

(g) The Ground Lease and Related Documents require the lessor to give to the Mortgagee written notice of any default, provided that no notice of default or termination is effective against the Mortgagee unless such notice is given to the Mortgagee;

(h) A Mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the Mortgagee’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i) The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by the Seller in connection with the origination of similar commercial or multifamily loans intended for securitization;

(j) Under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest (other than in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in subpart (k)) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents) the Mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest;

Exhibit B-17

(k) In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l) Provided that the Mortgagee cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with the Mortgagee upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

(36) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been, in all respects legal and have met with customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for conduit loan programs.

(37) Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Mortgage Loan and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Exhibit B.

(38) No Material Default; Payment Record. No Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required payments in the prior 12 months (or since origination if such Mortgage Loan has been originated within the past 12 months), and as of Cut-Off Date, no Mortgage Loan is delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Mortgage Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Exhibit B. No person other than the holder of such Mortgage Loan may declare any event of default under the Mortgage Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under the Mortgage Loan documents.

(39) Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, neither the Mortgaged Property (other than any tenants of such Mortgaged Property), nor any portion thereof, is the subject of, and no Mortgagor,

Exhibit B-18

guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

(40) Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan and other than as set forth on Schedule B-4 to this Exhibit B, no Mortgage Loan has a Mortgagor that is an Affiliate of a Mortgagor with respect to another Mortgage Loan. An “Affiliate” for purposes of this paragraph (40) means, a Mortgagor that is under direct or indirect common ownership and control with another Mortgagor.

(41) Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II environmental site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable environmental laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related Mortgagee; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated or contained in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action, completion or closure letter or its equivalent was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than “A-” (or the equivalent) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, Fitch Ratings, Inc. and/or A.M. Best Company; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the

Exhibit B-19

Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

(42) Appraisal. The Servicing File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within 6 months of the Mortgage Loan origination date, and within 12 months of the Cut-Off Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser that (i) is a Member of the Appraisal Institute, and (ii) to the Seller’s knowledge, had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation. Each appraisal contains a statement or is accomplished by a letter from the appraiser, to the effect that the appraisal was performed in accordance with the requirement of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as in effect on the date such Mortgage Loan was originated.

(43) Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Mortgage Loan which is set forth in the mortgage loan schedule attached as an exhibit to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement is true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date and contains all information required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be contained therein.

(44) Cross-Collateralization. No Mortgage Loan is cross collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other mortgage loan that is outside the Mortgage Pool, except in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan.

(45) Advance of Funds by the Seller.

This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of May 1, 2024, is between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as purchaser (the “Purchaser”), and UBS AG, an Office of the Comptroller of the Currency regulated branch of a foreign bank, as seller (the “Seller”).

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Purchaser, as depositor (in such capacity, the “Depositor”), Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and as asset representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”), Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”) and as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), pursuant to which the Purchaser will transfer the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein), together with certain other commercial, multifamily and/or manufactured housing community mortgage loans (collectively, the “Other Loans”), to a trust fund (the “Trust Fund”). In exchange for the Mortgage Loans and the Other Loans, the Trust Fund will issue, to or at the direction of the Depositor, certificates to be known as BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4 (collectively, the “Certificates”), and any Uncertificated Interests (if applicable).

For purposes of this Agreement, “Mortgage Loans” refers to the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (including as reflected in any footnotes to such exhibit) and “Mortgaged Properties” refers to the properties securing such Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller is selling one or more Co-sponsored Mortgage Loans, each such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is identified on Annex A to this Agreement. A “Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan” is (i) part of an entire Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or part of a Whole Loan, (ii) comprised of 2 or more separate Notes being sold to the Purchaser by two or more separate sellers (also referred to as Applicable Co-sponsors) as identified on Annex A to this Agreement, and (iii) if such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is part of a Whole Loan, comprised of the entire portion of such Whole Loan that is being contributed to the Trust (i.e. there may be other Notes evidencing Companion Loans that are not contributed to the Trust). “Applicable Co-sponsor” means, as to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, each seller of the subject Notes to the Purchaser, as identified on Annex A to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, although the term “Mortgage Loan” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Offering Documents means the entire such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, for the purposes of determining any rights or obligations of the Seller and the related Applicable Co-sponsor(s) with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Applicable Co-sponsor’s related mortgage loan purchase agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the term “Mortgage Loan” refers to the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) contributed to the Trust by such Applicable Co-sponsor and such promissory note(s) shall be treated like a separate Mortgage Loan.

The Purchaser and the Seller wish to prescribe the manner of sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser and in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, agree as follows:

SECTION 1        Sale and Conveyance of Mortgages; Possession of Mortgage File. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, representation or warranty (except as otherwise specifically set forth herein), subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan (other than any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”), including all interest and principal received or receivable on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding payments of principal and interest and other amounts due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-Off Date and excluding any Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loans).

In addition, on the Closing Date, solely in the event the initial Distribution Date occurs in February (except during a leap year) or March, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer (for deposit into the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account) (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Trust Fund the aggregate Initial Interest Deposit Amount with respect to those Mortgage Loans that accrue interest on an Actual/360 Basis, which Initial Interest Deposit Amount for each such Mortgage Loan shall represent an amount equal to (i) if the initial Distribution Date is in February, one day of interest (except during a leap year), and (ii) if the initial Distribution Date is in March, two days of interest (or one day of interest during a leap year), in each case, at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the related Cut-Off Date Balance of each such Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, no Initial Interest Deposit Amount will be due and owing if (i) the initial Distribution Date does not occur in February or March, or (ii) if the initial Distribution Date occurs in February during a leap year.

In addition, on the Closing Date, if one or more Mortgage Loans is identified opposite the Seller’s name on Annex B to this Agreement (which Mortgage Loans do not have a Due Date in the month of the first Distribution Date), the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer or the Certificate Administrator (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), for deposit into the account set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on behalf of the Seller and for the benefit of the Trust Fund, the Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount with respect to each such Mortgage Loan, which Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount shall represent an amount equal to one-month’s interest accrued with respect to each such Mortgage Loan at the related Net Mortgage Rate for the month preceding the month of the first Distribution Date.

Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Note, the Seller’s interest in the related Mortgage represented by the Note and the other contents of the related Mortgage File (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) will be vested in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee, and the ownership of records and documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than those to be held by the holder of any related Companion Loan

-2-

that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) prepared by or which come into the possession of the Seller shall (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) immediately vest in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee. In connection with the transfer pursuant to this Section 1 of any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, the Seller does hereby assign to the Purchaser all of its rights, title and interest (solely in its capacity as the holder of the subject Mortgage Loan) in, to and under the related Co-Lender Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the Seller does not assign any right, title or interest that it or any other party may have thereunder in its capacity as the holder of any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). The Seller’s assignment of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement.

The Purchaser will sell: (i) the Public Certificates to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Underwriters; (ii) the Private Certificates to the Initial Purchasers (the Initial Purchasers, collectively with the Underwriters, are referred to herein as the “Dealers”) specified in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Initial Purchasers; and (iii) if applicable, any classes of Loan-Specific Certificates pursuant to a related purchase agreement between the Purchaser and any applicable Loan-Specific Initial Purchasers identified therein.

The sale and conveyance of the Mortgage Loans is being conducted on an arms-length basis and upon commercially reasonable terms. As the consideration for the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser shall: (i) pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Seller or at the Seller’s direction that sum set forth in the funding schedule executed by the Seller and the Purchaser relating to the sale of the Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby (but subject to certain post-settlement adjustments for expenses incurred by the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Depositor and for which the Seller is specifically responsible); and (ii) if the Seller is listed on Annex C to this Agreement, cause any Uncertificated Interests or Class VRR Certificates identified on Annex C hereto opposite the Seller’s name to be registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in the name of the Seller.

The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2        Books and Records; Certain Funds Received After the Cut-Off Date. From and after the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, record title to each Mortgage (other than with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Note shall be transferred to the Trustee subject to and in accordance with this Agreement. Any funds due after the Cut-Off Date in connection with a Mortgage Loan received by the Seller shall be held in trust on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders) as the owner of such Mortgage Loan and shall be transferred promptly to the Certificate Administrator. All scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date but collected after the Cut-Off Date, and all recoveries and payments of principal and interest collected on or before the Cut-Off Date (only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-Off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall belong to, and shall be promptly remitted to, the Seller.

-3-

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Seller’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the sale of such Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser. The Seller intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser as a sale for tax purposes. Following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser, the Seller shall not take any actions inconsistent with the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser and its assignees.

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Purchaser’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the purchase of such Mortgage Loan by the Purchaser from the Seller. The Purchaser intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the Seller as a purchase for tax purposes. The Purchaser shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a set of records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the transfer of ownership of each Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Seller will receive the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 3        Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Additional Costs and Expenses.         (a) The Purchaser hereby directs the Seller, and the Seller hereby agrees, such agreement effective upon the transfer of the Mortgage Loans as contemplated herein, to deliver to and deposit with (or to cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Custodian (on behalf of the Trustee), with copies (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to be delivered to the Master Servicer, on the dates set forth in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered by the Purchaser, or contemplated to be delivered by the Seller (whether at the direction of the Purchaser or otherwise), to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, with respect to the Mortgage Loans under Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and meeting all the requirements of such Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

With respect to letters of credit (exclusive of those relating to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer, and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall require the Master Servicer to hold, the original (or copy, if such original has been submitted by the Seller to the issuing bank to effect an assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer) for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, to the extent required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents)) and the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied any such delivery requirements by delivering with respect to any letter(s) of credit a copy thereof to the Custodian together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller certifying that such document has been delivered to the Master Servicer or an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that it holds the letter(s) of credit pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If a letter of credit

-4-

referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents, the Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Master Servicer within 90 days of the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(b)               Except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall deliver to and deposit with (or cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date: (i) a copy of the Mortgage File; (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan(s), (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any related asset summaries that were delivered to the Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Certificates, material notices related to tenant leases, and any related operating statements, financial statements, appraisals or similar reports) or any related Serviced Companion Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans or holders of interests therein, and (C) are in the possession or under the control of the Seller; and (iii) all unapplied Escrow Payments and reserve funds in the possession or under control of the Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans together with a statement indicating which Escrow Payments and reserve funds are allocable to each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3(b) shall not apply to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)               With respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by any Mortgaged Property that is subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any such related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Seller or its designee shall, within 45 days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor for the transfer or assignment of such comfort letter or issuance of a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), with a copy of such notice or request to the Custodian (who shall include such document

-5-

in the related Mortgage File) and the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, deliver the original of such replacement comfort letter, new document or acknowledgement, as applicable, to the Custodian for inclusion in the Mortgage File.

(d)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver Mortgage Note(s) to the Custodian shall be limited to delivery to the Custodian of only the Mortgage Note(s) held by such Applicable Co-sponsor. With respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver the remaining portion of the related Mortgage File or any remaining document required to be delivered with respect thereto shall be joint and several, provided that any one of the Applicable Co-sponsors may deliver one Mortgage File (exclusive of the related Mortgage Notes) or one of any other remaining document required to be delivered with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan hereunder and under the mortgage loan purchase agreement(s) between the Purchaser and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s), and such delivery shall satisfy the corresponding delivery requirements for both the Seller and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s).

(e)               Upon written request from the Special Servicer, the Seller shall deliver a power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement to the Special Servicer, that permits the Special Servicer to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement actions by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 4        Treatment as a Security Agreement. Pursuant to Section 1 hereof, the Seller has conveyed to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the parties also intend and agree that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and in such event does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal or interest on such Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-Off Date, all other payments made in respect of such Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date) and all proceeds thereof, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser hypothecating and transferring such security interest in favor of the Trustee and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Trustee.

SECTION 5        Covenants of the Seller. The Seller covenants with the Purchaser as follows:

(a)               with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), it shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file, in

-6-

the appropriate public recording office for real property records or UCC financing statements, as appropriate, each related assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases, and each related UCC-3 financing statement referred to in the definition of Mortgage File, in each case in favor of the Trustee, as and to the extent contemplated under Section 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the recordation or filing of such assignments of Assignment of Leases, assignments of Mortgage and financing statements shall be paid by (or caused to be paid by) the Seller. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and the Seller shall record or file, or cause the recording or filing of, such substitute or corrected document or instrument, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to such third party (or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan);

(b)               as to each Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the Seller cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, it shall forward to the Custodian a copy of the original certified by the Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording. The Seller shall cause each assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above to reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the Seller or its designee, in which case the Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof;

(c)               except for actions that are the express responsibility of another party hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer, including effectuating the transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and any Serviced Companion Loan Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(c) shall not apply with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan;

(d)               the Seller shall provide the Master Servicer the initial data with respect to each Mortgage Loan for the CREFC^® Financial File and the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File that are required to be prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

-7-

(e)               if (during the period of time that the Underwriters are required, under applicable law, to deliver a prospectus related to the Public Certificates in connection with sales of the Public Certificates by an Underwriter or a dealer) the Seller has obtained actual knowledge of undisclosed or corrected information related to an event that occurred prior to the Closing Date, which event causes there to be an untrue statement of a material fact with respect to the Seller Information (as such term is defined in the Indemnification Agreement) in the Prospectus, the Offering Circular or any Loan-Specific Offering Circular (the Prospectus, the Offering Circular and any Loan-Specific Offering Circular are collectively referred to herein as the “Offering Documents”), or causes there to be an omission to state therein a material fact with respect to the Seller Information required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein with respect to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Seller shall promptly notify the Dealers and the Depositor. If as a result of any such event the Dealers’ legal counsel determines that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Documents in order to correct the untrue statement, or to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or to make the Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to the Seller Information) at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Dealers, such amendments or supplements to the Offering Documents as may be necessary so that the Seller Information in the Offering Documents, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law. (All capitalized terms used in this Section 5(e) and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date for the Certificates, between, among others, the Dealers, the Seller and the Depositor (the “Indemnification Agreement” and, together with this Agreement, the “Operative Documents”).) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall have no affirmative obligation to monitor the performance of the Mortgage Loans or any changes in condition or circumstance of any Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor, guarantor or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date in connection with its obligations under this Section 5(e);

(f)                for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Seller shall: (1) provide the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and any Form 8-K Disclosure Information for which the Seller is responsible as indicated on Exhibit U, Exhibit V and Exhibit Z to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that, in connection with providing Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and the Seller’s reporting obligations under Item 1119 of Regulation AB, upon reasonable request by the Seller, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a list of all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any other Servicing Function Participant; and (2) reasonably cooperate with each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, upon the reasonable request of such party, by providing all Mortgage Loan related documents, data and information in the possession of the Seller at or prior to the Closing Date and on the date of such request and necessary for the ongoing compliance by the Depositor and the Trust with the requirements of Form 10-D with respect to Items 1111 and 1125 of Regulation AB; provided, that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the

(g)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered an electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence File (including, if applicable, any additional documents that the Seller believes should be included to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform an Asset Review on such Mortgage Loan; provided that such documents are clearly labeled and identified) to the Designated Site, each such Diligence File being organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor;

(h)               within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Depositor (with a copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) with a certification by an authorized officer of the Seller, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, that the electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan uploaded to the Designated Site contains all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor, which such certification or copies thereof may be sent via email;

(i)                 upon written request of the Asset Representations Reviewer (in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for a Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan), the Seller shall provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written request (which time period may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the Seller and the Asset Representations Reviewer), such documents requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer and in the possession of the Seller relating to each such Delinquent Loan to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete any Test for each such Delinquent Loan, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(j)                 upon the completion of an Asset Review with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan and receipt by the Seller of a written invoice from the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Seller shall pay to the Asset Representations Reviewer, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such written invoice, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to such Delinquent Loan as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to adjustment with respect to any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan(s), as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

-9-

from receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report. If the Seller elects to refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report, the Seller shall provide to the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test;

(l)                 the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event an Enforcing Party elects a dispute resolution method pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Seller shall abide by the selected dispute resolution method and otherwise comply with the terms and provisions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) related to the resolution method;

(m)             the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages and other liabilities, including without limitation the costs of investigation, legal defense and any amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation arising out of or based upon (i) any failure of the Seller to pay the fees described under Section 5(j) above within 90 days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) any failure by the Seller to provide all documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to Sections 5(g) and 5(i) of this Agreement and under the definition of “Diligence File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within 60 days of the Closing Date (or such later date specified herein or in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); and

Purchaser receives a Repurchase Request, then such party is required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller.

(e)               Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Enforcing Servicer is required to determine whether any such Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan materially and adversely affects, or such Document Defect is deemed in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to materially and adversely affect, the value of the Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or the interests of the Trustee or any Certificateholder in the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or causes any Mortgage Loan to fail to be a Qualified Mortgage (any such Document Defect shall constitute a “Material Document Defect” and any such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach”; and a Material Breach and/or a Material Document Defect, as the case may be, shall constitute a “Material Defect”). If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect, then the Enforcing Servicer will be required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller, demanding that the Seller cure such Material Defect. Promptly upon becoming aware of any such Material Defect (including, without limitation, through a written notice given by any party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as provided above if the Document Defect or Breach identified therein is a Material Defect), the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the Seller’s (x) discovery of, and (y) receipt of notice of and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to such Material Defect (or, in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days from any party discovering such Material Defect), cure the same in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of any losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses associated therewith (including, if applicable, the amount of any fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer payable pursuant to Section 5(j) above attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan)) or, if such Material Defect cannot be cured within such 90-day period, the Seller shall (before the end of such 90-day period) either: (i) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property (or the Trust Fund’s interest therein) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account; or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date and in no event shall any such substitution be effected with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) and pay the Master Servicer, for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith; provided, that the Seller may not repurchase any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan without repurchasing its Mortgage Loan that is part of the same Whole Loan (so long as there is a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan); and provided, further, however, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such 90-day period, then the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure (or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as described above) it being understood and agreed that, in connection with the Seller’s receiving such additional 90-day period, the Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day period and what actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the Seller anticipates that such Material Defect

-14-

will be cured within such additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the initial 90-day period and any such additional 90-day period solely due to the failure of the Seller to have received the recorded document, then the Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect so long as the Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator every 30 days thereafter that the Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date. Any such repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. The Seller shall have no obligation to monitor the Mortgage Loans regarding the existence of a Breach or a Document Defect, but if the Seller discovers a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, it will notify the Purchaser. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-Off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and shall be required, under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller promptly following receipt. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. No mortgage loan may be substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Section 6(e) if the Mortgage Loan to be replaced was itself a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that had replaced a prior Mortgage Loan, in which case, absent a cure (including by the making of a Loss of Value Payment pursuant to the following paragraph) of the relevant Material Defect, the affected Mortgage Loan will be required to be repurchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), in lieu of the Seller performing its obligations with respect to any Material Defect as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to the extent that the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer (subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder or, in the case of any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative so long as it is the applicable Directing Holder) as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, are able to agree upon a cash payment payable by the Seller to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, that would be deemed sufficient to compensate the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, for a Material Defect (a “Loss of Value Payment”), the Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such Loss of Value Payment to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable; provided that a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage, may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment; and provided, further, that the Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Loss of Value Payment relates to a Co-sponsored

-15-

Mortgage Loan, the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement). Upon its making a Loss of Value Payment, the Seller shall be deemed to have cured the subject Material Defect in all respects. Provided that such Loss of Value Payment is made, this paragraph describes the sole remedy available to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, and its assignees regarding any such Material Defect, and the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase or replace the affected Mortgage Loan or otherwise cure such Material Defect. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, provided that, prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Seller or the Enforcing Servicer, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and within the time frames set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this Section 6(e) (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan).

If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as described above (a “Defective Mortgage Loan”), (y) such Defective Mortgage Loan is part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and (z) the applicable Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Material Defect as to the other Mortgage Loan(s) that are a part of such Cross-Collateralized Group (the “Other Crossed Loans”) (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Document Defect or Breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to each such Other Crossed Loan for purposes of the above provisions, and the Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such Other Crossed Loan in accordance with the provisions above unless, in the case of such Breach or Document Defect, as applicable:

(A) the Seller (at its expense) delivers or causes to be delivered to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Seller’s repurchase or replacement of only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Defect has actually occurred without regard to the provisions of this paragraph (the “Affected Loan(s)”) and the operation of the remaining provisions of this Section 6(e) (i) will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Certificate is outstanding and (ii) will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code); and

(B)  each of the following conditions would be satisfied if the Seller were to repurchase or replace only the Affected Loans and not the Other Crossed Loans:

(1)   the debt service coverage ratio for such Other Crossed Loan(s) (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not less than the lesser of (A) 0.10x below the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus and (B) the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-

-16-

Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) for the four preceding calendar quarters preceding the repurchase or replacement;

(2)   the loan-to-value ratio for the Other Crossed Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the greatest of (A) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus plus 10%, (B) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) at the time of repurchase or replacement and (C) 75%; and

(3)   either (x) the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group will not impair the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group or (y) the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans have been modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that removes any threat of impairment of the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group as a result of the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group.

The determination of the Enforcing Servicer as to whether the conditions set forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error on the Certificateholders, other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Seller. The Enforcing Servicer will be entitled to cause to be delivered, or direct the Seller to (in which case the Seller shall) cause to be delivered, to the Enforcing Servicer an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause (B)(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the Seller if the scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the Seller and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in each case).

With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan that forms a part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and as to which the conditions described in the second preceding paragraph are satisfied, such that the Trust Fund will continue to hold the Other Crossed Loans, the Seller and the Depositor agree to forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each is permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan(s) still held by the Trust Fund. If the exercise of remedies by one such party would impair the ability of the other such party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan or the Other Crossed Loans, as the case may be, held by the other such party, then both parties shall forbear from exercising such remedies unless and until the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans can be modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment as a result of the

-17-

exercise of remedies. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing any of the Mortgage Loans that form a Cross-Collateralized Group shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Loan Documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. All other terms of the Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect, without any modification thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall be binding on all future holders of each Mortgage Loan that forms part of a Cross-Collateralized Group.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that, to the extent necessary and appropriate, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will execute (pursuant to a limited power of attorney provided by the Trustee who will not be liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any of its agents or subcontractors) the modification of the Loan Documents that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment of the ability of the Seller or the Trust Fund to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loan(s) held by such party resulting from the exercise of remedies by the other such party. All costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer with respect to any Cross-Collateralized Group pursuant to this paragraph and the first, second and third preceding paragraphs shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as provided for in Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and such advances and interest thereon shall be included in the calculation of Purchase Price for the Affected Loan(s) to be repurchased or replaced.

Subject to the Seller’s right to cure set forth above in this Section 6(e), and further subject to Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, failure of the Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8) and (18) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except such deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

If there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties securing a Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase such Mortgage Loan if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property(ies) are, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the related Loan Documents and the Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such

-18-

release would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

With respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees that if a “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) exists under the related Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan included in the related Outside Securitization Trust, and such Outside Serviced Companion Loan is repurchased by or on behalf of such Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) from the related Outside Securitization Trust as a result of such “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in such Outside Servicing Agreement), then the Seller shall repurchase such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) related solely to the promissory note for such Outside Serviced Companion Loan.

(f)                In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or more Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the repurchasing entity evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File (including, without limitation, the Servicing File) and other documents and all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the repurchasing or substituting entity or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and reconveyance of the Mortgage Loan and the security therefor to the Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. In the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan by the Seller as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian the related Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of any deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) and deliver or cause the delivery of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Upon any substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall become part of the Trust Fund and be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

-19-

(g)               The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Notes or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files.

(h)               Each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other party upon discovery of any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement. The Seller’s obligation to cure any Material Defect or to repurchase, or substitute for, or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to, any affected Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a breach of any of the Seller’s representations or warranties contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement or a Document Defect with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(i)                 The Seller shall promptly notify the Depositor if (i) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request (other than from the Depositor), (ii) the Seller repurchases or replaces a Mortgage Loan, (iii) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal (other than from the Depositor) or (iv) the Seller rejects or disputes any Repurchase Request. Each such notice shall be given no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after (A) with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding sentence, receipt of a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, as applicable, and (B) with respect to clauses (ii) and (iv) of the preceding sentence, the occurrence of the event giving rise to the requirement for such notice, and shall include (1) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan and the person making the Repurchase Request, (2) the date (x) such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal was received, (y) the related Mortgage Loan was repurchased or replaced or (z) the Repurchase Request was rejected or disputed, as applicable, and (3) if known, the basis for (x) the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) or (y) any rejection or dispute of a Repurchase Request, as applicable.

The Seller shall provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator the Seller’s “Central Index Key” number assigned by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and a true, correct and complete copy of the relevant portions of any Form ABS-15G that the Seller is required to file with the Commission under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Mortgage Loans, on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days before the date such Form ABS-15G is required to be filed with the Commission.

In addition, the Seller shall provide the Depositor, upon request, such other information in its possession as would permit the Depositor to comply with its obligations under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act to disclose fulfilled and unfulfilled repurchase requests. Any such information requested shall be provided as promptly as practicable after such request is made.

The Seller agrees that no Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider will be required to provide information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice that is protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. In addition, the Seller hereby acknowledges that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is so provided only to assist the Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law

-20-

or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to this Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.

Each party hereto agrees that the receipt of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice or the delivery of any notice required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6(i) shall not, in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of, receipt of notice of, or knowledge of the Seller of, any Material Defect.

Each party hereto agrees and acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, the “Central Index Key” number of the Trust Fund is 0002016125.

“Repurchase Communication” means, for purposes of this Section 6(i) only, any communication, whether oral or written, which need not be in any specific form.

(j)                 The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that it and the Purchaser have engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ernst & Young LLP (the “Accounting Firms”) to perform “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans and to prepare one or more “third-party due diligence reports” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act) (collectively, the “Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report”) in connection therewith. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Depositor that, except with respect to the Accounting Firms and the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report, the Seller, as of the Closing Date, (A) has not obtained any “third-party due diligence report” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act), and (B) has not retained any third party to engage in, and will not retain any third party to engage in, any activity that constitutes “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans, unless, in the case of the immediately preceding clause (B) and following the Closing Date, the Seller (i) provides prior written notice to the Depositor, (ii) requires the third-party due diligence provider to comply with its obligations under Section 15E(s)(4)(B) of, and Rule 17g-10 under, the Exchange Act (including with respect to the timely delivery to any applicable NRSRO and to the Depositor of a Form ABS Due Diligence-15E), and (iii) facilitates the Depositor’s compliance with Rule 17g-5(a)(3)(iii)(E) under the Exchange Act, with respect thereto. The Seller further represents and warrants that no portion of the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report contains, with respect to the information contained therein with respect to the Mortgage Loans, any names, addresses, other personal identifiers or zip codes with respect to any individuals, or any other personally identifiable or other information that would be associated with an individual, including without limitation any “nonpublic personal information” within the meaning of Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. The Underwriters and Initial Purchasers are third-party beneficiaries of the provisions set forth in this Section 6(j).

(k)               The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is not the Purchaser), the related Outside Servicing Agreement contains, or at the time such Outside Servicing Agreement is executed and delivered will contain, terms and provisions (or, to the extent

-21-

specified on Exhibit E to this Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement contains terms and provisions (and, to the extent contained in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the applicable documents provide that such terms and provisions are deemed included by reference into the related Outside Servicing Agreement)) that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement. The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is the Purchaser), the related Co-Lender Agreement does not contain any terms or provisions that conflict with (or that will conflict with) any terms or provisions in the related Outside Servicing Agreement that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement.

SECTION 7        Review of Mortgage File. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Custodian will be required to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and if it finds any document or documents not to have been properly executed, or to be missing or to be defective on its face in any material respect, to notify the Purchaser, which shall promptly notify the Seller.

SECTION 8        Conditions to Closing. The obligation of the Seller to sell the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the Seller having received the consideration for the Mortgage Loans as contemplated by Section 1 of this Agreement. The obligations of the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the satisfaction, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the following conditions:

(a)               Each of the obligations of the Seller required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall have been duly performed and complied with and all of the representations and warranties of the Seller under this Agreement shall, subject to any applicable exceptions set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement, be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date or as of such other date as of which such representation is made under the terms of Exhibit B to this Agreement, and no event shall have occurred as of the Closing Date which would constitute a default on the part of the Seller under this Agreement, and the Purchaser shall have received a certificate to the foregoing effect signed by the Seller substantially in the form of Exhibit D to this Agreement.

(b)              The Pooling and Servicing Agreement (to the extent it affects the obligations of the Seller hereunder), in such form as is agreed upon and acceptable to the Purchaser, the Seller, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and their respective counsel in their reasonable discretion, shall be duly executed and delivered by all signatories as required pursuant to the terms thereof.

(c)               The Purchaser shall have received the following additional closing documents:

(i)                                    copies of the Seller’s Articles of Association, charter, by-laws or other organizational documents and all amendments, revisions, restatements and supplements thereof, certified as of a recent date by the Secretary of the Seller;

-22-

(ii)                                a certificate as of a recent date of the applicable regulatory body or governmental agency to the effect that the Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in the jurisdiction of its formation;

(iii)                             an officer’s certificate of the Seller in form reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and each Rating Agency;

(iv)                            an opinion of counsel of the Seller, subject to customary exceptions and carve-outs, in form reasonably acceptable to the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and each Rating Agency; and

(v)                                a letter from counsel of the Seller substantially to the effect that (a) nothing has come to such counsel’s attention that would lead such counsel to believe that the agreed upon sections of the Preliminary Prospectus (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Offering Circular, any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular or any final Loan-Specific Offering Circular, in each case as of the date thereof or as of the Closing Date (or, in the case of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular or any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular, solely as of the time of sale) contained or contain, as applicable, with respect to the Seller Information, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein relating to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (b) the Seller Information in the Prospectus appears to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of Regulation AB.

(d)               The Public Certificates shall have been concurrently issued and sold pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement. The Private Certificates shall have been concurrently issued and sold pursuant to the terms of the Certificate Purchase Agreement.

-26-

SECTION 22    Miscellaneous. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

EXHIBIT B

MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

(1) Whole Loan; Ownership of Mortgage Loans. Except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, each Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a Mortgage Loan. Each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is a portion of a whole loan evidenced by a Mortgage Note. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to the Purchaser, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller or, with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the trustee for the related Other Securitization Trust), participation or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. The Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Mortgage Loan, and the assignment to the Purchaser constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Mortgage Loan.

(2) Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Mortgage Loan documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment premium/yield maintenance charges) may be further limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Mortgage Loan documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the Mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Mortgage Loan documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by Seller in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, that would deny the Mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents.

Exhibit B-1

(3) Mortgage Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

(4) Hospitality Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan that is secured by a hospitality property operated pursuant to a franchise agreement includes an executed comfort letter or similar agreement signed by the Mortgagor and franchisor of such property enforceable by the Issuing Entity against such franchisor, either directly or as an assignee of the originator. The Mortgage or related security agreement for each Mortgage Loan secured by a hospitality property creates a security interest in the revenues of such property for which a UCC financing statement has been filed in the appropriate filing office.

(5) Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except by written instruments set forth in the related Mortgage File or as otherwise provided in the related Mortgage Loan documents (a)(1) there has been no forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan which such forbearance, waiver or modification relates to the COVID-19 emergency, (2) as of the Cut-Off Date, to the knowledge of the Seller, after due inquiry, there has been no written request from the related Mortgagor for a forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such request relates to the COVID-19 emergency and (3) other than as related to the COVID-19 emergency, the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Mortgage Loan guaranty and related Mortgage Loan documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the Mortgagor nor the guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the Mortgage Loan. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, except as contained in a written document included in the Mortgage File, there have been no modifications, amendments or waivers, that could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on such Mortgage Loan consented to by the Seller on or after the Cut-Off Date.

(6) Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each endorsement or assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases from the Seller or its affiliate is in recordable form (but for the insertion of the name of the assignee and any related recording information which is not yet available to the Seller) and constitutes a legal, valid and binding endorsement or assignment from the Seller, or its affiliate, as applicable. Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee (or if identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, leasehold) interest in the Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such

Exhibit B-2

Mortgage Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below) and the exceptions to paragraph 7 below (each such exception, a “Title Exception”)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions) as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy (as described below), and as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(7) Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy or a “marked up” commitment, in each case with escrow instructions and binding on the title insurer) (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record specifically identified in the Title Policy; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property; (f) if the related Mortgage Loan constitutes a cross collateralized Mortgage Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for another Mortgage Loan contained in the same cross collateralized group of Mortgage Loans, and (g) condominium declarations of record and identified in such Title Policy, provided that none of clauses (a) through (g), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or principal use of the Mortgaged Property, the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, or the current ability of the related Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). For purposes of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the

Exhibit B-3

date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon. Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the second preceding sentence none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of the Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy. Each Title Policy contains no exclusion for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such affirmative insurance is not available in which case such exclusion may exist), that the Mortgaged Property shown on the survey is the same as the property legally described in the Mortgage.

(8) Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Mortgage Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan, as of the Cut-Off Date there are no subordinate mortgages or junior mortgage liens encumbering the related Mortgaged Property other than Permitted Encumbrances, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (6) above), and equipment and other personal property financing. The Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor other than as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B.

(9) Assignment of Leases and Rents. There exists as part of the related Mortgage File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions (and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, subject to the related Assignment of Leases constituting security for the entire Whole Loan), each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to applicable law and the Standard Qualifications, provides that, upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan, a receiver may be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related Mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the Mortgagee.

(10) Financing Statements. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each Mortgage Loan or related security agreement establishes a valid security interest in, and a UCC-1 financing statement has been filed and/or recorded (or, in the case of fixtures, the Mortgage constitutes a fixture filing) in all places necessary at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan (or, if not filed and/or recorded, has submitted or caused to be submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording) to perfect a valid security interest in, the personal property (creation and perfection of which is governed by the UCC) owned by the

Exhibit B-4

Mortgagor and necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property in its current use other than (1) non-material personal property, (2) personal property subject to purchase money security interests and (3) personal property that is leased equipment. Each UCC-1 financing statement, if any, filed with respect to personal property constituting a part of the related Mortgaged Property and each UCC-3 assignment, if any, filed with respect to such financing statement was in suitable form for filing in the filing office in which such financing statement was filed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(11) Condition of Property. The Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six months of origination of the Mortgage Loan and within twelve months of the Cut-Off Date.

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan no more than twelve months prior to the Cut-Off Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the Closing Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than (i) deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination and (ii) any damage fully covered by insurance) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan.

(12) Taxes and Assessments. As of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, all taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges) due with respect to the Mortgaged Property (excluding any related personal property) securing a Mortgage Loan that is or could become a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that became due and owing prior to the Cut-Off Date with respect to each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or, if the appropriate amount of such taxes or charges is being appealed or is otherwise in dispute, the unpaid taxes or charges are covered by an escrow of funds or other security sufficient to pay such tax or charge and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon.

(13) Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding pending and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the date of origination and as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding threatened for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property.

(14) Actions Concerning Mortgage Loan. To the Seller’s knowledge, based on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7), an engineering report or property condition

Exhibit B-5

assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), as of origination there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Mortgage Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage Loan documents; (f) the current ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service such Mortgage Loan; or (g) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property.

(15) Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and escrow payments currently required to be escrowed with the Mortgagee pursuant to each Mortgage Loan (including capital improvements and environmental remediation reserves) are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no delinquencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required under the related Mortgage Loan documents are being conveyed by the Seller to the depositor or its servicer (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the depositor under the related Outside Servicing Agreement or the related Outside Servicer for the related Other Securitization Trust).

(16) No Holdbacks. The principal amount of the Mortgage Loan stated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule has been fully disbursed as of the Closing Date and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs, occupancy, performance or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by the Seller to merit such holdback).

(17) Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (as defined below), in an amount (subject to customary deductibles) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

Exhibit B-6

“Insurance Ratings Requirements” means either (1) a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” from S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, or (2) the Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements. “Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements” means insurance provided by a syndicate of insurers, as to which (i) if such syndicate consists of 5 or more members, at least 60% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 40% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, and (ii) if such syndicate consists of 4 or fewer members, at least 75% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 25% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with respect to each Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in an amount equal to the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program, plus such additional excess flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders originating mortgage loans for securitization.

If the Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor and included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements.

The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property

Exhibit B-7

damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the probable maximum loss or scenario expected loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the PML would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC in an amount not less than 100% of the PML.

The Mortgage Loan documents require insurance proceeds (or an amount equal to such insurance proceeds) in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, the Mortgagee (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section that are required by the Mortgage Loan documents to be paid as of the Cut-Off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the Mortgagee under the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the trustee (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the Mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by the Seller.

(18) Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Parcels. Based solely on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7) and survey, if any, an engineering report or property condition assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), each Mortgaged

Exhibit B-8

Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has permanent access from a recorded easement or right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and other utilities necessary for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, all of which are adequate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been made or is required to be made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax parcels (or the Mortgage Loan documents so require such application in the future), in which case the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which the Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax parcels are created.

(19) No Encroachments. To the Seller’s knowledge based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the Title Policy obtained in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan, and except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the current marketability or principal use of the Mortgaged Property: (a) all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; (b) no material improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; and (c) no material improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy.

(20) No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Mortgage Loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date) or an equity participation by the Seller.

(21) REMIC. The Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Mortgage Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and (B) either: (a) such Mortgage Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including permanently affixed buildings and structural components, such as wiring, plumbing systems and central heating and air-conditioning systems, that are integrated into such buildings, serve such buildings in their passive functions and do not produce or contribute to the production of income other than consideration for the use or occupancy of space, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Mortgage Loan was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date or (ii) at the Closing

Exhibit B-9

Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Closing Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Mortgage Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Mortgage Loan will not be considered “significantly modified” solely by reason of the borrower having been granted a COVID-19 related forbearance provided that: (a) such Mortgage Loan forbearance is covered by Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12) by reason of satisfying the requirements for such coverage stated in Section 5.02(2) of Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12); and (b) the Seller identifies such Mortgage Loan and provides (x) the date on which such forbearance was granted, (y) the length in months of the forbearance, and (z) how the payments in forbearance will be paid (that is, by extension of maturity, change of amortization schedule, etc.). Any prepayment premiums and yield maintenance charges applicable to the Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph will have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

(22) Compliance with Usury Laws. The mortgage rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) of such Mortgage Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(23) Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Cut-Off Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Mortgage Loan by the Issuing Entity.

(24) Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related Mortgagee.

Exhibit B-10

(25) Local Law Compliance. To the Seller’s knowledge, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, a survey, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan are in material compliance with applicable laws, zoning ordinances, rules, covenants, and restrictions (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) governing the occupancy, use, and operation of such Mortgaged Property or constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure and any non-conformity with zoning laws constitutes a legal non-conforming use or structure which does not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of such Mortgaged Property. In the event of casualty or destruction, (a) the Mortgaged Property may be restored or repaired to the full extent necessary to maintain the use of the structure immediately prior to such casualty or destruction, (b) law and ordinance insurance coverage has been obtained for the Mortgaged Property in amounts customarily required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, (c) title insurance policy coverage has been obtained with respect to any non-conforming use or structure, or (d) the inability to restore the Mortgaged Property to the full extent of the use or structure immediately prior to the casualty would not materially and adversely affect the use or operation of such Mortgaged Property. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

(26) Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents that it will keep all material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals necessary for the operation of the Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the Seller’s knowledge based upon any of a letter from any government authorities, zoning consultant’s report or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization; all such material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals are in effect or the failure to obtain or maintain such material licenses, permits, franchises or certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals does not materially and adversely affect the use and/or operation of the Mortgaged Property as it was used and operated as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan or the rights of a holder of the related Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable regulations, zoning and building laws.

(27) Recourse Obligations. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan (a) provide that such Mortgage Loan becomes full recourse to the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis) in any of the following events (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) if any petition for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation

Exhibit B-11

pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, will be filed by, consented to, or acquiesced in by, the Mortgagor; (ii) the Mortgagor or guarantor will have solicited or caused to be solicited petitioning creditors to cause an involuntary bankruptcy filing with respect to the Mortgagor or (iii) transfers of either the Mortgaged Property or controlling equity interests in the Mortgagor made in violation of the Mortgage Loan documents; and (b) contains provisions for recourse against the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis), for losses and damages resulting from the following (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) the Mortgagor’s misappropriation of rents after an event of default, security deposits, insurance proceeds, or condemnation awards; (ii) the Mortgagor’s fraud or intentional material misrepresentation; (iii) breaches of the environmental covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents; or (iv) the Mortgagor’s commission of intentional material physical waste at the Mortgaged Property (but, in some cases, only to the extent there is sufficient cash flow generated by the related Mortgaged Property to prevent such waste).

(28) Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Mortgage Loan documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial defeasance (as described in paragraph 33), in each case of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance (defined in paragraph 33 below), (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation. With respect to any partial release (including in connection with any partial Defeasance) under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) and (ii) would not cause the subject Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the Mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make

Exhibit B-12

a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions.

In the case of any Mortgage Loan, in the event of a condemnation or taking of any portion of a Mortgaged Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, unless an opinion of counsel is delivered as specified in clause (y) of the preceding paragraph, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, the condemnation proceeds or the award from any such taking may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans).

No such Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross collateralized with another Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties or a portion thereof, including due to a partial condemnation, other than in compliance with the loan-to-value ratio and other requirements of the REMIC Provisions.

(29) Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage Loan with (a) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, (b) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls (or maintenance schedules in the case of Mortgage Loans secured by residential cooperative properties) for properties that have any individual lease which accounts for more than 5% of the in-place base rent, and (c) annual financial statements.

(30) Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Mortgage Loan over $20 million, as of origination the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 and the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015 (collectively referred to as “TRIPRA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the Mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIPRA, or damages related thereto, except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by commercial availability on commercially reasonable terms, or as otherwise indicated on Exhibit C; provided, that if TRIPRA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then,

Exhibit B-13

provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Mortgage Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor will not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Mortgage Loan documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance) at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount.

(31) Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Mortgage Loan contains a “due-on-sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the Mortgagee which are customarily acceptable to the Seller, including, but not limited to, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Mortgage Loan documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold, other than as related to (i) family and estate planning transfers or transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (iii) transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in a Mortgagor, (iv) transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Mortgage Loan documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (v) transfers of common stock in publicly traded companies or (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraphs 28 and 33 herein, or (vii) by reason of any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B, or future permitted mezzanine debt as set forth on Schedule B-2 to this Exhibit B or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan of any Mortgage Loan or any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (ii) purchase money security interests (iii) any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-3 to this Exhibit B or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents provide that to the extent any Rating Agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

(32) Single-Purpose Entity. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Mortgage Loan is outstanding. Each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-Off Date Balance of $30 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-

Exhibit B-14

consolidation of the Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” means an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents and the related Mortgage Loan documents (or if the Mortgage Loan has a Cut-Off Date Balance equal to $10 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Mortgage Loan documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Mortgage Loan documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Mortgage Loan documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with the related Mortgage Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

(33) Defeasance. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that, pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, can be defeased (a “Defeasance”), (i) the Mortgage Loan documents provide for defeasance as a unilateral right of the Mortgagor, subject to satisfaction of conditions specified in the Mortgage Loan documents; (ii) the Mortgage Loan cannot be defeased within two years after the Closing Date; (iii) the Mortgagor is permitted to pledge only United States “government securities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), the revenues from which will, in the case of a full Defeasance, be sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Loan when due, including the entire remaining principal balance on the maturity date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) or, if the Mortgage Loan is an ARD Mortgage Loan, the entire principal balance outstanding on the Anticipated Repayment Date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium), and if the Mortgage Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (A) 110% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and (B) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; (iv) the defeasance collateral is not permitted to be subject to prepayment, call, or early redemption; (v) the Mortgagor is required to provide a certification from an independent certified public accountant that the collateral is sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note as set forth in clause (iii) above; (vi) the defeased note and the defeasance collateral are required to be assumed by a Single-Purpose Entity; (vii) the Mortgagor is required to provide an opinion of counsel that the Trustee has a perfected security interest in such collateral prior to any other claim or interest; and (viii) the Mortgagor is required to pay all rating agency fees associated with defeasance (if rating confirmation is a specific condition precedent thereto) and all other reasonable expenses associated with defeasance, including, but not limited to, accountant’s fees and opinions of counsel.

Exhibit B-15

(34) Fixed Interest Rates. Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except in the case of ARD Mortgage Loans and situations where default interest is imposed.

(35) Ground Leases. For purposes of this Exhibit B, a “Ground Lease” means a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a Ground Leasehold estate in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of the Seller, its successors and assigns (collectively, the “Ground Lease and Related Documents”), the Seller represents and warrants that:

(a) The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease and Related Documents permit the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and do not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage. No material change in the terms of the Ground Lease had occurred since the origination of the Mortgage Loan, except by any written instruments which are included in the related Mortgage File;

(b) The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Mortgage File (or in such Ground Lease and Related Documents) that the Ground Lease may not be amended, modified, canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee;

(c) The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Mortgage Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Mortgage Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

(d) The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any interests, estates, liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions; or (ii) is the subject of a subordination, non-disturbance or attornment agreement or similar agreement to which the Mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest is subject;

Exhibit B-16

(e) Subject to the notice requirements of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, the Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid), and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid);

(f) The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Closing Date;

(g) The Ground Lease and Related Documents require the lessor to give to the Mortgagee written notice of any default, provided that no notice of default or termination is effective against the Mortgagee unless such notice is given to the Mortgagee;

(h) A Mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the Mortgagee’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i) The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by the Seller in connection with the origination of similar commercial or multifamily loans intended for securitization;

(j) Under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest (other than in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in subpart (k)) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents) the Mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest;

Exhibit B-17

(k) In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l) Provided that the Mortgagee cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with the Mortgagee upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

(36) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been, in all respects legal and have met with customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for conduit loan programs.

(37) Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Mortgage Loan and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Exhibit B.

(38) No Material Default; Payment Record. No Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required payments in the prior 12 months (or since origination if such Mortgage Loan has been originated within the past 12 months), and as of Cut-Off Date, no Mortgage Loan is delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Mortgage Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Exhibit B. No person other than the holder of such Mortgage Loan may declare any event of default under the Mortgage Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under the Mortgage Loan documents.

(39) Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, neither the Mortgaged Property (other than any tenants of such Mortgaged Property), nor any portion thereof, is the subject of, and no Mortgagor,

Exhibit B-18

guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

(40) Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan and other than as set forth on Schedule B-4 to this Exhibit B, no Mortgage Loan has a Mortgagor that is an Affiliate of a Mortgagor with respect to another Mortgage Loan. An “Affiliate” for purposes of this paragraph (40) means, a Mortgagor that is under direct or indirect common ownership and control with another Mortgagor.

(41) Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II environmental site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable environmental laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related Mortgagee; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated or contained in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action, completion or closure letter or its equivalent was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than “A-” (or the equivalent) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, Fitch Ratings, Inc. and/or A.M. Best Company; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the

Exhibit B-19

Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

(42) Appraisal. The Servicing File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within 6 months of the Mortgage Loan origination date, and within 12 months of the Cut-Off Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser that (i) is a Member of the Appraisal Institute, and (ii) to the Seller’s knowledge, had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation. Each appraisal contains a statement or is accomplished by a letter from the appraiser, to the effect that the appraisal was performed in accordance with the requirement of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as in effect on the date such Mortgage Loan was originated.

(43) Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Mortgage Loan which is set forth in the mortgage loan schedule attached as an exhibit to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement is true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date and contains all information required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be contained therein.

(44) Cross-Collateralization. No Mortgage Loan is cross collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other mortgage loan that is outside the Mortgage Pool, except in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan.

(45) Advance of Funds by the Seller. Except for loan proceeds advanced at the time of loan origination or other payments contemplated by the Mortgage Loan documents, no advance of funds has been made by the Seller to the related Mortgagor, and no funds have been received from any person other than the related Mortgagor or an affiliate, directly, or, to the knowledge of the Seller, indirectly for, or on account of, payments due on the Mortgage Loan. Neither the Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contribution to any Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan, other than contributions made on or prior to the Closing Date.

(46) Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Seller has complied in all material respects with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Mortgage Loan.

For purposes of this Exhibit B, “Mortgagee” means the mortgagee, grantee or beneficiary under any Mortgage, any holder of legal title to any portion of any Mortgage Loan or, if applicable, any agent or servicer on behalf of such party.

Exhibit B-20

For purposes of this Exhibit B, “Mortgagor” means the obligor or obligors on a Mortgage Note, including without limitation, any person that has acquired the related Mortgaged Property and assumed the obligations of the original obligor under the Mortgage Note and including in connection with any Mortgage Loan that utilizes an indemnity deed of trust structure, the borrower and the Mortgaged Property owner/payment guarantor/mortgagor individually and collectively, as the context may require.

For purposes of this Exhibit B, the phrases “the Seller’s knowledge” or “the Seller’s belief” and other words and phrases of like import mean, except where otherwise expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, the actual state of knowledge or belief of the Seller, its officers and employees directly responsible for the underwriting, origination, servicing or sale of the Mortgage Loans regarding the matters expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, in each case without having conducted any independent inquiry into such matters and without any obligation to have done so (except (i) having sent to the servicers servicing the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Seller, if any, specific inquiries regarding the matters referred to and (ii) as expressly set forth in these representations and warranties). All information contained in documents which are part of or required to be part of a Mortgage File (to the extent such documents exist) will be deemed within the Seller’s knowledge.

EXCEPTIONS TO MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

Representation	Mortgage Loan	Description of Exception
(6) Lien; Valid Assignment (7) Permitted Liens; Title Insurance	Lexmark (Loan No. 17)	The lease for the sole tenant at the Mortgaged Property, Lexmark, provides such tenant with a right of first offer to purchase the Mortgaged Property or any portion that the Mortgagor offers or markets for sale. Pursuant to a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement, Lexmark has agreed that such right of first refusal will be expressly inapplicable to (i) any foreclosure of the related mortgage, deed-in-lieu thereof, or any other enforcement of the mortgage and (ii) in connection with the immediately succeeding sale of the Mortgaged Property by the holder of the mortgage following obtaining the Mortgaged Property as described in the immediately preceding clause (i).
(17) Insurance	La Provence Apartments (Loan No. 37)	With respect to all risk insurance, the Mortgage Loan documents permit a deductible for windstorm/named storm/hail coverage up to 10% of the total insurable value, which may not be considered customary. The business interruption insurance for the Mortgaged Property does not have an extended period of indemnity, provided that at renewal the Mortgagor is required to place such coverage with a minimum 180 days extended period of indemnity. There is an insurance shortfall in the event of a total casualty to the Mortgaged Property. Pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, the Mortgagor and guarantors unconditionally guarantee payment in full to the Mortgage Loan Seller of the debt following the occurrence of a casualty in which the Mortgage Loan Seller retains all net proceeds and applies such proceeds to the debt, as and when due, less and any insurance proceeds received by the Mortgage Loan Seller as a result of such casualty.
(25) Local Law Compliance	Chippewa Place (Loan No. 34)	A portion of the Mortgaged Property is legal nonconforming as to its use as a caretaker residence as single family residence use is not a permitted use in an

Exhibit C-1

 

Representation	Mortgage Loan	Description of Exception
		office business district under the current zoning code. If a nonconforming building is damaged or destroyed more than 50 percent of its reproduction value, no repairing or reconstruction may be made unless every portion of the building is made to conform to regulations of the district in which the building is located and it may be occupied only by a conforming use.
(25) Local Law Compliance	La Provence Apartments (Loan No. 37)	The Mortgaged Property is legal nonconforming as to its current use as a multifamily property (recently converted from hotel/motel use) as such use requires a Planned Development Project (“PDP”) approval from the local municipality and the Mortgaged Property has not yet received such PDP approval. The Mortgage Loan documents require the Mortgagor to (i) obtain PDP approval from the local municipality, which approval permits the Mortgaged Property to operate as a multifamily residential complex with not less than 56 residential units, and (ii) deliver to the Mortgage Loan Seller within 180 days of the origination date (unless extended by the Mortgage Loan Seller) a zoning report that shows the Mortgaged Property as legal conforming with respect to use as a multifamily residential complex.
(27) Recourse Obligations	Lexmark (Loan No. 17)	Only the Mortgagor, and not the non-recourse carveout guarantor, is liable for breaches of environmental covenants, and the Mortgagor is the only party liable under the environmental indemnity.

This Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of May 1, 2024, is between BMO Commercial Mortgage Securities LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as purchaser (the “Purchaser”), and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, a national banking association, as seller (the “Seller”).

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Purchaser, as depositor (in such capacity, the “Depositor”), Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), Argentic Services Company LP, as special servicer (the “Special Servicer”), Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as operating advisor (in such capacity, the “Operating Advisor”) and as asset representations reviewer (in such capacity, the “Asset Representations Reviewer”), Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as certificate administrator (in such capacity, the “Certificate Administrator”) and as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”), pursuant to which the Purchaser will transfer the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein), together with certain other commercial, multifamily and/or manufactured housing community mortgage loans (collectively, the “Other Loans”), to a trust fund (the “Trust Fund”). In exchange for the Mortgage Loans and the Other Loans, the Trust Fund will issue, to or at the direction of the Depositor, certificates to be known as BMO 2024-5C4 Mortgage Trust, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-5C4 (collectively, the “Certificates”), and any Uncertificated Interests (if applicable).

For purposes of this Agreement, “Mortgage Loans” refers to the mortgage loans listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (including as reflected in any footnotes to such exhibit) and “Mortgaged Properties” refers to the properties securing such Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Seller is selling one or more Co-sponsored Mortgage Loans, each such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is identified on Annex A to this Agreement. A “Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan” is (i) part of an entire Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or part of a Whole Loan, (ii) comprised of 2 or more separate Notes being sold to the Purchaser by two or more separate sellers (also referred to as Applicable Co-sponsors) as identified on Annex A to this Agreement, and (iii) if such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan is part of a Whole Loan, comprised of the entire portion of such Whole Loan that is being contributed to the Trust (i.e. there may be other Notes evidencing Companion Loans that are not contributed to the Trust). “Applicable Co-sponsor” means, as to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, each seller of the subject Notes to the Purchaser, as identified on Annex A to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, although the term “Mortgage Loan” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Offering Documents means the entire such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, for the purposes of determining any rights or obligations of the Seller and the related Applicable Co-sponsor(s) with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan under this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or any Applicable Co-sponsor’s related mortgage loan purchase agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the term “Mortgage Loan” refers to the portion of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan evidenced by the related Note(s) contributed to the Trust by such Applicable Co-sponsor and such promissory note(s) shall be treated like a separate Mortgage Loan.

The Purchaser and the Seller wish to prescribe the manner of sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser and in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, agree as follows:

SECTION 1Sale and Conveyance of Mortgages; Possession of Mortgage File. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, representation or warranty (except as otherwise specifically set forth herein), subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan (other than any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan), all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans secured by the Mortgaged Properties identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”), including all interest and principal received or receivable on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding payments of principal and interest and other amounts due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-Off Date and excluding any Retained Defeasance Rights and Obligations with respect to the Mortgage Loans).

In addition, on the Closing Date, solely in the event the initial Distribution Date occurs in February (except during a leap year) or March, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer (for deposit into the Collection Account) or the Certificate Administrator (for deposit into the Interest Reserve Account) (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) for the benefit of the Trust Fund the aggregate Initial Interest Deposit Amount with respect to those Mortgage Loans that accrue interest on an Actual/360 Basis, which Initial Interest Deposit Amount for each such Mortgage Loan shall represent an amount equal to (i) if the initial Distribution Date is in February, one day of interest (except during a leap year), and (ii) if the initial Distribution Date is in March, two days of interest (or one day of interest during a leap year), in each case, at the related Net Mortgage Rate on the related Cut-Off Date Balance of each such Mortgage Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, no Initial Interest Deposit Amount will be due and owing if (i) the initial Distribution Date does not occur in February or March, or (ii) if the initial Distribution Date occurs in February during a leap year.

In addition, on the Closing Date, if one or more Mortgage Loans is identified opposite the Seller’s name on Annex B to this Agreement (which Mortgage Loans do not have a Due Date in the month of the first Distribution Date), the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer or the Certificate Administrator (as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), for deposit into the account set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement on behalf of the Seller and for the benefit of the Trust Fund, the Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount with respect to each such Mortgage Loan, which Initial Month’s Interest Deposit Amount shall represent an amount equal to one-month’s interest accrued with respect to each such Mortgage Loan at the related Net Mortgage Rate for the month preceding the month of the first Distribution Date.

Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Note, the Seller’s interest in the related Mortgage represented by the Note and the other contents of the related Mortgage File (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) will be vested in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee, and the ownership of records and documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than those to be held by the holder of any related Companion Loan

-2-

that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) prepared by or which come into the possession of the Seller shall (subject to the rights of the holders of interests in any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) immediately vest in the Purchaser and immediately thereafter the Trustee. In connection with the transfer pursuant to this Section 1 of any Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, the Seller does hereby assign to the Purchaser all of its rights, title and interest (solely in its capacity as the holder of the subject Mortgage Loan) in, to and under the related Co-Lender Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the Seller does not assign any right, title or interest that it or any other party may have thereunder in its capacity as the holder of any related Companion Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan). The Seller’s assignment of any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Outside Servicing Agreement and the related Co-Lender Agreement.

The Purchaser will sell: (i) the Public Certificates to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Underwriters; (ii) the Private Certificates to the Initial Purchasers (the Initial Purchasers, collectively with the Underwriters, are referred to herein as the “Dealers”) specified in the Purchase Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”), between the Purchaser and the Initial Purchasers; and (iii) if applicable, any classes of Loan-Specific Certificates pursuant to a related purchase agreement between the Purchaser and any applicable Loan-Specific Initial Purchasers identified therein.

The sale and conveyance of the Mortgage Loans is being conducted on an arms-length basis and upon commercially reasonable terms. As the consideration for the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser shall: (i) pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the Seller or at the Seller’s direction that sum set forth in the funding schedule executed by the Seller and the Purchaser relating to the sale of the Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby (but subject to certain post-settlement adjustments for expenses incurred by the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers on behalf of the Depositor and for which the Seller is specifically responsible); and (ii) if the Seller is listed on Annex C to this Agreement, cause any Uncertificated Interests or Class VRR Certificates identified on Annex C hereto opposite the Seller’s name to be registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in the name of the Seller.

The purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2Books and Records; Certain Funds Received After the Cut-Off Date. From and after the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, record title to each Mortgage (other than with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) and each Note shall be transferred to the Trustee subject to and in accordance with this Agreement. Any funds due after the Cut-Off Date in connection with a Mortgage Loan received by the Seller shall be held in trust on behalf of the Trustee (for the benefit of the Certificateholders) as the owner of such Mortgage Loan and shall be transferred promptly to the Certificate Administrator. All scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date but collected after the Cut-Off Date, and all recoveries and payments of principal and interest collected on or before the Cut-Off Date (only in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-Off Date and principal prepayments thereon), shall belong to, and shall be promptly remitted to, the Seller.

-3-

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Seller’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the sale of such Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser. The Seller intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser as a sale for tax purposes. Following the transfer of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser, the Seller shall not take any actions inconsistent with the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser and its assignees.

The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Purchaser’s balance sheets and other financial statements as the purchase of such Mortgage Loan by the Purchaser from the Seller. The Purchaser intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the Seller as a purchase for tax purposes. The Purchaser shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a set of records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the transfer of ownership of each Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.

It is expressly agreed and understood that, notwithstanding the assignment of the Loan Documents, it is expressly intended that the Seller will receive the benefit of any securitization indemnification provisions in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 3Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Additional Costs and Expenses. (a) The Purchaser hereby directs the Seller, and the Seller hereby agrees, such agreement effective upon the transfer of the Mortgage Loans as contemplated herein, to deliver to and deposit with (or to cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Custodian (on behalf of the Trustee), with copies (other than with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to be delivered to the Master Servicer, on the dates set forth in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered by the Purchaser, or contemplated to be delivered by the Seller (whether at the direction of the Purchaser or otherwise), to the Custodian and the Master Servicer, with respect to the Mortgage Loans under Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and meeting all the requirements of such Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations.

With respect to letters of credit (exclusive of those relating to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), the Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer, and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall require the Master Servicer to hold, the original (or copy, if such original has been submitted by the Seller to the issuing bank to effect an assignment or amendment of such letter of credit (changing the beneficiary thereof to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer) for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, to the extent required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents)) and the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied any such delivery requirements by delivering with respect to any letter(s) of credit a copy thereof to the Custodian together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Seller certifying that such document has been delivered to the Master Servicer or an Officer’s Certificate from the Master Servicer certifying that it holds the letter(s) of credit pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. If a letter of credit

-4-

referred to in the previous sentence is not in a form that would allow the Master Servicer to draw on such letter of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder in accordance with the applicable terms thereof and/or of the related Loan Documents, the Seller shall deliver the appropriate assignment or amendment documents (or copies of such assignment or amendment documents if the Seller has submitted the originals to the related issuer of such letter of credit for processing) to the Master Servicer within 90 days of the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay any costs of assignment or amendment of such letter(s) of credit required in order for the Master Servicer to draw on such letter(s) of credit on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, and shall cooperate with the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under any such letter of credit prior to the date such letter of credit is assigned or amended in order that it may be drawn by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

(b)Except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall deliver to and deposit with (or cause to be delivered to and deposited with) the Master Servicer within five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date: (i) a copy of the Mortgage File; (ii) all documents and records not otherwise required to be contained in the Mortgage File that (A) relate to the origination and/or servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loan(s), (B) are reasonably necessary for the ongoing administration and/or servicing of the Mortgage Loans (including any related asset summaries that were delivered to the Rating Agencies in connection with the rating of the Certificates, material notices related to tenant leases, and any related operating statements, financial statements, appraisals or similar reports) or any related Serviced Companion Loans or for evidencing or enforcing any of the rights of the holder of the Mortgage Loans or any related Serviced Companion Loans or holders of interests therein, and (C) are in the possession or under the control of the Seller; and (iii) all unapplied Escrow Payments and reserve funds in the possession or under control of the Seller that relate to the Mortgage Loans and any related Serviced Companion Loans together with a statement indicating which Escrow Payments and reserve funds are allocable to each Mortgage Loan or any related Serviced Companion Loan; provided that the Seller shall not be required to deliver any draft documents, privileged or other related Seller communications, credit underwriting, due diligence analyses or data, or internal worksheets, memoranda, communications or evaluations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3(b) shall not apply to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan.

(c)With respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by any Mortgaged Property that is subject to a franchise agreement with a related comfort letter in favor of the Seller that requires notice to or request of the related franchisor to transfer or assign any such related comfort letter to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders or have a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter) issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the Seller or its designee shall, within 45 days of the Closing Date (or any shorter period if required by the applicable comfort letter), provide any such required notice or make any such required request to the related franchisor for the transfer or assignment of such comfort letter or issuance of a new comfort letter (or any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), with a copy of such notice or request to the Custodian (who shall include such document

-5-

in the related Mortgage File) and the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with the Servicing Standard to acquire such replacement comfort letter, if necessary (or to acquire any such new document or acknowledgement as may be contemplated under the existing comfort letter), and the Master Servicer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, deliver the original of such replacement comfort letter, new document or acknowledgement, as applicable, to the Custodian for inclusion in the Mortgage File.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver Mortgage Note(s) to the Custodian shall be limited to delivery to the Custodian of only the Mortgage Note(s) held by such Applicable Co-sponsor. With respect to each Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan, the obligations of each of the Applicable Co-sponsors to deliver the remaining portion of the related Mortgage File or any remaining document required to be delivered with respect thereto shall be joint and several, provided that any one of the Applicable Co-sponsors may deliver one Mortgage File (exclusive of the related Mortgage Notes) or one of any other remaining document required to be delivered with respect to such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan hereunder and under the mortgage loan purchase agreement(s) between the Purchaser and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s), and such delivery shall satisfy the corresponding delivery requirements for both the Seller and the other Applicable Co-sponsor(s).

(e)Upon written request from the Special Servicer, the Seller shall deliver a power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement to the Special Servicer, that permits the Special Servicer to take such other action as is necessary to effect the delivery, assignment and/or recordation of any documents and/or instruments relating to any Mortgage Loan which have not been delivered, assigned or recorded at the time required for enforcement actions by the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund.

SECTION 4Treatment as a Security Agreement. Pursuant to Section 1 hereof, the Seller has conveyed to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the parties also intend and agree that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and in such event does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal or interest on such Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-Off Date, all other payments made in respect of such Mortgage Loans after the Cut-Off Date (and, in any event, excluding scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date) and all proceeds thereof, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser hypothecating and transferring such security interest in favor of the Trustee and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Trustee.

SECTION 5Covenants of the Seller. The Seller covenants with the Purchaser as follows:

(a)with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), it shall record and file, or cause a third party on its behalf to record and file, in

-6-

the appropriate public recording office for real property records or UCC financing statements, as appropriate, each related assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases, and each related UCC-3 financing statement referred to in the definition of Mortgage File, in each case in favor of the Trustee, as and to the extent contemplated under Section 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. All out of pocket costs and expenses relating to the recordation or filing of such assignments of Assignment of Leases, assignments of Mortgage and financing statements shall be paid by (or caused to be paid by) the Seller. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, then the Seller shall promptly prepare or cause the preparation of a substitute therefor or cure such defect or cause such defect to be cured, as the case may be, and the Seller shall record or file, or cause the recording or filing of, such substitute or corrected document or instrument, or with respect to any assignments that a third party on the Seller’s behalf has agreed to record or file as described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall deliver such substitute or corrected document or instrument to such third party (or, if the Mortgage Loan is then no longer subject to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the then holder of such Mortgage Loan);

(b)as to each Mortgage Loan (except with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan), if the Seller cannot deliver or cause to be delivered the documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (2), (3), (6) (if recorded) and (15) of the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, as applicable, it shall forward to the Custodian a copy of the original certified by the Seller or the title agent to be a true and complete copy of the original thereof submitted for recording. The Seller shall cause each assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above that is recorded and the file copy of each UCC-3 assignment referred to in Section (5)(a) above to reflect that it should be returned by the public recording or filing office to the Custodian or its agent following recording (or, alternatively, to the Seller or its designee, in which case the Seller shall deliver or cause the delivery of the recorded/filed original to the Custodian promptly following receipt); provided that, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Seller or its designee shall obtain and provide to the Custodian a certified copy of the recorded original. On a monthly basis, at the expense of the Seller, the Custodian shall forward to the Master Servicer a copy of each of the aforementioned assignments following the Custodian’s receipt thereof;

(c)except for actions that are the express responsibility of another party hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it shall take any action reasonably required by the Purchaser, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in order to assist and facilitate the transfer of the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) to the Master Servicer, including effectuating the transfer of any letters of credit with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders and any Serviced Companion Loan Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(c) shall not apply with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan;

(d)the Seller shall provide the Master Servicer the initial data with respect to each Mortgage Loan for the CREFC^® Financial File and the CREFC^® Loan Periodic Update File that are required to be prepared by the Master Servicer pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

-7-

(e)if (during the period of time that the Underwriters are required, under applicable law, to deliver a prospectus related to the Public Certificates in connection with sales of the Public Certificates by an Underwriter or a dealer) the Seller has obtained actual knowledge of undisclosed or corrected information related to an event that occurred prior to the Closing Date, which event causes there to be an untrue statement of a material fact with respect to the Seller Information (as such term is defined in the Indemnification Agreement) in the Prospectus, the Offering Circular or any Loan-Specific Offering Circular (the Prospectus, the Offering Circular and any Loan-Specific Offering Circular are collectively referred to herein as the “Offering Documents”), or causes there to be an omission to state therein a material fact with respect to the Seller Information required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein with respect to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, then the Seller shall promptly notify the Dealers and the Depositor. If as a result of any such event the Dealers’ legal counsel determines that it is necessary to amend or supplement the Offering Documents in order to correct the untrue statement, or to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or to make the Offering Documents in compliance with applicable law, the Seller shall (to the extent that such amendment or supplement solely relates to the Seller Information) at the expense of the Seller, do all things reasonably necessary to assist the Depositor to prepare and furnish to the Dealers, such amendments or supplements to the Offering Documents as may be necessary so that the Seller Information in the Offering Documents, as so amended or supplemented, will not contain an untrue statement, will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Offering Documents are delivered to a purchaser, be misleading and will comply with applicable law. (All capitalized terms used in this Section 5(e) and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the first pricing date for the Certificates, between, among others, the Dealers, the Seller and the Depositor (the “Indemnification Agreement” and, together with this Agreement, the “Operative Documents”).) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall have no affirmative obligation to monitor the performance of the Mortgage Loans or any changes in condition or circumstance of any Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor, guarantor or any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date in connection with its obligations under this Section 5(e);

(f)for so long as the Trust Fund is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Seller shall: (1) provide the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and any Form 8-K Disclosure Information for which the Seller is responsible as indicated on Exhibit U, Exhibit V and Exhibit Z to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within the time periods set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided that, in connection with providing Additional Form 10-K Disclosure and the Seller’s reporting obligations under Item 1119 of Regulation AB, upon reasonable request by the Seller, the Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a list of all parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any other Servicing Function Participant; and (2) reasonably cooperate with each of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator, upon the reasonable request of such party, by providing all Mortgage Loan related documents, data and information in the possession of the Seller at or prior to the Closing Date and on the date of such request and necessary for the ongoing compliance by the Depositor and the Trust with the requirements of Form 10-D with respect to Items 1111 and 1125 of Regulation AB; provided, that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the

-8-

related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(g)within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered an electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) to the Depositor by uploading such Diligence File (including, if applicable, any additional documents that the Seller believes should be included to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to perform an Asset Review on such Mortgage Loan; provided that such documents are clearly labeled and identified) to the Designated Site, each such Diligence File being organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor;

(h)within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide the Depositor (with a copy to each of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Controlling Class Representative, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Operating Advisor) with a certification by an authorized officer of the Seller, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Agreement, that the electronic copy of the Diligence File for each Mortgage Loan uploaded to the Designated Site contains all documents required under the definition of “Diligence File” and such Diligence Files are organized and categorized in accordance with the electronic file structure reasonably requested by the Depositor, which such certification or copies thereof may be sent via email;

(i)upon written request of the Asset Representations Reviewer (in the event that the Asset Representations Reviewer reasonably determines that any Review Materials made available or delivered to the Asset Representations Reviewer are missing any documents required to complete any Test for a Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan), the Seller shall provide to the Asset Representations Reviewer within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written request (which time period may be extended upon the mutual agreement of the Seller and the Asset Representations Reviewer), such documents requested by the Asset Representations Reviewer and in the possession of the Seller relating to each such Delinquent Loan to enable the Asset Representations Reviewer to complete any Test for each such Delinquent Loan, but only to the extent such documents are in the possession of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not be required to provide any documents that are proprietary to the related originator or the Seller or any draft documents, privileged or internal communications, credit underwriting or due diligence analysis;

(j)upon the completion of an Asset Review with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) that is a Delinquent Loan and receipt by the Seller of a written invoice from the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Seller shall pay to the Asset Representations Reviewer, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of such written invoice, the Asset Representations Reviewer Asset Review Fee with respect to such Delinquent Loan as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, subject to adjustment with respect to any Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan(s), as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(k)if the Preliminary Asset Review Report indicates that any of the representations and warranties fails or is deemed to fail any Test, the Seller shall have 90 days

-9-

from receipt of the Preliminary Asset Review Report (the “Cure/Contest Period”) to remedy or otherwise refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report. If the Seller elects to refute the Test failure indicated in the Preliminary Asset Review Report, the Seller shall provide to the Special Servicer and the Asset Representations Reviewer any documents or any explanations to support (i) a conclusion that a subject representation and warranty has not failed a Test or (ii) a claim that any missing documents in the Review Materials are not required to complete a Test;

(l)the Seller acknowledges and agrees that in the event an Enforcing Party elects a dispute resolution method pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, the Seller shall abide by the selected dispute resolution method and otherwise comply with the terms and provisions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (including the exhibits thereto) related to the resolution method;

(m)       the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser against any and all expenses, losses, claims, damages and other liabilities, including without limitation the costs of investigation, legal defense and any amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation arising out of or based upon (i) any failure of the Seller to pay the fees described under Section 5(j) above within 90 days of written request by the Asset Representations Reviewer or (ii) any failure by the Seller to provide all documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to Sections 5(g) and 5(i) of this Agreement and under the definition of “Diligence File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement within 60 days of the Closing Date (or such later date specified herein or in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement); and

(n)         with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is (or may become pursuant to the related Co-Lender Agreement) part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan, (x) in the event that the Closing Date occurs on or prior to the closing date of the related Outside Securitization Trust (such event, the “Outside Securitization”), the Seller shall provide (or cause to be provided) to the Depositor (and counsel thereto) and the Certificate Administrator (i) written notice in a timely manner of (but no later than three (3) Business Days prior to) the closing date of such Outside Securitization, and (ii) no later than one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization, a copy of the Outside Servicing Agreement in an EDGAR-compatible format, and (y) in the event that the Closing Date occurs after the closing date of the Outside Securitization, the Seller shall provide, or cause the Outside Depositor to provide, the Depositor (and counsel thereto) with a copy of the related Outside Servicing Agreement (together with any amendments thereto) in an EDGAR-compatible format by the later of (i) two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and (ii) one (1) Business Day after the closing date of such Outside Securitization.

SECTION 6Representations and Warranties.

(a)                           The Seller represents and warrants to the Purchaser as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date that:

(i)                               The Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation with full power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business, is duly qualified as a foreign organization in good standing in all

(iii)                        The execution and delivery of each Operative Document by the Seller and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which the Seller is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Seller’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Seller, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Seller’s assets or property, in each case, which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by the Operative Documents;

(iv)                       There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Seller’s knowledge, threatened against the Seller in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of the Mortgage Loans or the ability of the Seller to carry out the transactions contemplated by each Operative Document;

(v)                          The Seller is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that, in the Seller’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Seller or its properties or might have consequences that, in the Seller’s good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

(b)  The Purchaser represents and warrants to the Seller as of the Closing Date that:

(i)                              The Purchaser is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with full corporate power and authority to own its assets and conduct its business, is duly qualified as a foreign corporation in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of its property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Purchaser to perform its obligations hereunder, and the Purchaser has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it, and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement, and has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all the transactions contemplated hereby;

(ii)                          Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller, this Agreement will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);

(iii)                       The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser and the performance of its obligations hereunder will not conflict with any provision of any law or regulation to which the Purchaser is subject, or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Purchaser’s organizational documents or any agreement or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it is bound, or any order or decree applicable to the Purchaser, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien on any of the Purchaser’s assets or property, in each case which would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Purchaser to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

-12-

(iv)                      There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against the Purchaser in any court or by or before any other governmental agency or instrumentality which would materially and adversely affect the validity of this Agreement or any action taken in connection with the obligations of the Purchaser contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the Purchaser to perform under the terms of this Agreement;

(v)                         The Purchaser is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations of the Purchaser or its properties or might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect its performance under any Operative Document;

(vi)                       No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of, or compliance by the Purchaser with, this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than those that have been obtained by the Purchaser; and

(vii)                   The Purchaser has (i) prepared a report on Form ABS-15G under the Exchange Act (the “Form 15G”) that attaches the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report (as defined herein) (a final draft of which Form 15G was provided to the Seller at least 5 business days before the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates); and (ii) furnished the Form 15G to the Commission (as defined herein) on EDGAR at least 5 business days before the first pricing date with respect to the Certificates as required by Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act.

(c)The Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to the Mortgage Loans (other than any related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) set forth on Exhibit B to this Agreement as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit B to this Agreement, which representations and warranties are subject to the exceptions thereto set forth on Exhibit C to this Agreement. If the Seller’s Mortgage Loans contain a related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, then such Seller further makes the representations and warranties as to such related Trust Subordinate Companion Loan set forth on Exhibit I to this Agreement (if any) as of the Cut-Off Date or such other date set forth in such representations and warranties on Exhibit I to this Agreement.

(d)Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, if (i) any party thereto (other than the Asset Representations Reviewer) discovers or receives notice alleging that any document required to be included in a Mortgage File by (or on behalf of) the Seller has not been properly executed, is missing, contains information that does not conform in any material respect with the corresponding information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or does not appear to be regular on its face (each, a “Document Defect”), or discovers or receives notice alleging a breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller made pursuant to Section 6(c) of this Agreement with respect to any Mortgage Loan (a “Breach”) or (ii) the Special Servicer or the

-13-

Purchaser receives a Repurchase Request, then such party is required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller.

(e)Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Enforcing Servicer is required to determine whether any such Document Defect or Breach with respect to any Mortgage Loan materially and adversely affects, or such Document Defect is deemed in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to materially and adversely affect, the value of the Mortgage Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or the interests of the Trustee or any Certificateholder in the related Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property (or any related REO Property) or causes any Mortgage Loan to fail to be a Qualified Mortgage (any such Document Defect shall constitute a “Material Document Defect” and any such Breach shall constitute a “Material Breach”; and a Material Breach and/or a Material Document Defect, as the case may be, shall constitute a “Material Defect”). If such Document Defect or Breach has been determined to be a Material Defect, then the Enforcing Servicer will be required to give prompt written notice thereof to the Seller, demanding that the Seller cure such Material Defect. Promptly upon becoming aware of any such Material Defect (including, without limitation, through a written notice given by any party to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as provided above if the Document Defect or Breach identified therein is a Material Defect), the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the Seller’s (x) discovery of, and (y) receipt of notice of and receipt of a demand to take action with respect to such Material Defect (or, in the case of a Material Defect relating to a Mortgage Loan not being a Qualified Mortgage, not later than 90 days from any party discovering such Material Defect), cure the same in all material respects (which cure shall include payment of any losses and Additional Trust Fund Expenses associated therewith (including, if applicable, the amount of any fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer payable pursuant to Section 5(j) above attributable to the Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan)) or, if such Material Defect cannot be cured within such 90-day period, the Seller shall (before the end of such 90-day period) either: (i) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or any related REO Property (or the Trust Fund’s interest therein) at the applicable Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Collection Account; or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date and in no event shall any such substitution be effected with respect to any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan) and pay the Master Servicer, for deposit into the Collection Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount in connection therewith; provided, that the Seller may not repurchase any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan without repurchasing its Mortgage Loan that is part of the same Whole Loan (so long as there is a Material Defect with respect to such Mortgage Loan); and provided, further, however, that if (i) such Material Defect is capable of being cured but not within such 90-day period, (ii) such Material Defect is not related to any Mortgage Loan’s not being a Qualified Mortgage and (iii) the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Material Defect within such 90-day period, then the Seller shall have an additional 90 days to complete such cure (or, in the event of a failure to so cure, to complete such repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as described above) it being understood and agreed that, in connection with the Seller’s receiving such additional 90-day period, the Seller shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator setting forth the reasons such Material Defect is not capable of being cured within the initial 90-day period and what actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the Seller anticipates that such Material Defect

-14-

will be cured within such additional 90-day period; and provided, further, that, if any such Material Defect is still not cured after the initial 90-day period and any such additional 90-day period solely due to the failure of the Seller to have received the recorded document, then the Seller shall be entitled to continue to defer its cure, repurchase and/or substitution obligations in respect of such Material Defect so long as the Seller certifies to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Administrator every 30 days thereafter that the Material Defect is still in effect solely because of its failure to have received the recorded document and that the Seller is diligently pursuing the cure of such defect (specifying the actions being taken), except that no such deferral of cure, repurchase or substitution may continue beyond the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date. Any such repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan shall be on a whole loan, servicing released basis. The Seller shall have no obligation to monitor the Mortgage Loans regarding the existence of a Breach or a Document Defect, but if the Seller discovers a Material Defect with respect to a Mortgage Loan, it will notify the Purchaser. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) after the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced after the related Cut-Off Date and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust on or prior to the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly Payments due with respect to each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (if any) on or prior to the related Due Date in the month of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to each Mortgage Loan being repurchased or replaced and received by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer on behalf of the Trust after the related date of repurchase or substitution, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and shall be required, under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to be remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller promptly following receipt. From and after the date of substitution, each Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if any, that has been substituted shall be deemed to constitute a “Mortgage Loan” hereunder for all purposes. No mortgage loan may be substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan as contemplated by this Section 6(e) if the Mortgage Loan to be replaced was itself a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that had replaced a prior Mortgage Loan, in which case, absent a cure (including by the making of a Loss of Value Payment pursuant to the following paragraph) of the relevant Material Defect, the affected Mortgage Loan will be required to be repurchased.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e), in lieu of the Seller performing its obligations with respect to any Material Defect as set forth in the preceding paragraph, to the extent that the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer (subject to the consent of the Controlling Class Representative so long as the Controlling Class Representative is the applicable Directing Holder or, in the case of any Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, subject to the consent of the related Loan-Specific Controlling Class Representative so long as it is the applicable Directing Holder) as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, are able to agree upon a cash payment payable by the Seller to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, that would be deemed sufficient to compensate the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, for a Material Defect (a “Loss of Value Payment”), the Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay such Loss of Value Payment to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable; provided that a Material Defect as a result of a Mortgage Loan not constituting a Qualified Mortgage, may not be cured by a Loss of Value Payment; and provided, further, that the Loss of Value Payment shall include the portion of any Liquidation Fees payable to the Special Servicer in respect of such Loss of Value Payment and the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Loss of Value Payment relates to a Co-sponsored

-15-

Mortgage Loan, the portion of fees of the Asset Representations Reviewer attributable to any Asset Review of such Co-sponsored Mortgage Loan shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 11.02(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement). Upon its making a Loss of Value Payment, the Seller shall be deemed to have cured the subject Material Defect in all respects. Provided that such Loss of Value Payment is made, this paragraph describes the sole remedy available to the Purchaser or the Trust, as applicable, and its assignees regarding any such Material Defect, and the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase or replace the affected Mortgage Loan or otherwise cure such Material Defect. This paragraph is intended to apply only to a mutual agreement or settlement between the Seller and the Enforcing Servicer, provided that, prior to any such agreement or settlement, nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the Seller or the Enforcing Servicer, from exercising any of its rights related to a Material Defect in the manner and within the time frames set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or this Section 6(e) (excluding this paragraph) (including any right to cure, repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan).

If (x) a Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as described above (a “Defective Mortgage Loan”), (y) such Defective Mortgage Loan is part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and (z) the applicable Document Defect or Breach does not constitute a Material Defect as to the other Mortgage Loan(s) that are a part of such Cross-Collateralized Group (the “Other Crossed Loans”) (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Document Defect or Breach (as the case may be) shall be deemed to constitute a Material Defect as to each such Other Crossed Loan for purposes of the above provisions, and the Seller shall be obligated to repurchase or replace each such Other Crossed Loan in accordance with the provisions above unless, in the case of such Breach or Document Defect, as applicable:

(A) the Seller (at its expense) delivers or causes to be delivered to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such Seller’s repurchase or replacement of only those Mortgage Loans as to which a Material Defect has actually occurred without regard to the provisions of this paragraph (the “Affected Loan(s)”) and the operation of the remaining provisions of this Section 6(e) (i) will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or cause the Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust under subpart E, part I of subchapter J of the Code for federal income tax purposes at any time that any Certificate is outstanding and (ii) will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code); and

(B) each of the following conditions would be satisfied if the Seller were to repurchase or replace only the Affected Loans and not the Other Crossed Loans:

(1)the debt service coverage ratio for such Other Crossed Loan(s) (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) for the four calendar quarters immediately preceding the repurchase or replacement is not less than the lesser of (A) 0.10x below the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus and (B) the debt service coverage ratio for the Cross-

-16-

Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) for the four preceding calendar quarters preceding the repurchase or replacement;

(2)the loan-to-value ratio for the Other Crossed Loans (excluding the Affected Loan(s)) is not greater than the greatest of (A) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) set forth in Annex A to the Prospectus plus 10%, (B) the loan-to-value ratio, expressed as a whole number percentage (taken to one decimal place), for the Cross-Collateralized Group (including the Affected Loan(s)) at the time of repurchase or replacement and (C) 75%; and

(3)either (x) the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group will not impair the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group or (y) the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans have been modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that removes any threat of impairment of the ability to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral of the other Mortgage Loans in the Cross-Collateralized Group as a result of the exercise of remedies against the Primary Collateral of any Mortgage Loan in the Cross-Collateralized Group.

The determination of the Enforcing Servicer as to whether the conditions set forth above have been satisfied shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error on the Certificateholders, other parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Seller. The Enforcing Servicer will be entitled to cause to be delivered, or direct the Seller to (in which case the Seller shall) cause to be delivered, to the Enforcing Servicer an Appraisal of any or all of the related Mortgaged Properties for purposes of determining whether the condition set forth in clause (B)(2) above has been satisfied, in each case at the expense of the Seller if the scope and cost of the Appraisal is approved by the Seller and, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Controlling Class Representative (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld in each case).

With respect to any Defective Mortgage Loan that forms a part of a Cross-Collateralized Group and as to which the conditions described in the second preceding paragraph are satisfied, such that the Trust Fund will continue to hold the Other Crossed Loans, the Seller and the Depositor agree to forbear from enforcing any remedies against the other’s Primary Collateral but each is permitted to exercise remedies against the Primary Collateral securing its respective Mortgage Loans, including with respect to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan(s) still held by the Trust Fund. If the exercise of remedies by one such party would impair the ability of the other such party to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Affected Loan or the Other Crossed Loans, as the case may be, held by the other such party, then both parties shall forbear from exercising such remedies unless and until the Loan Documents evidencing and securing the relevant Mortgage Loans can be modified in a manner that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment as a result of the

-17-

exercise of remedies. Any reserve or other cash collateral or letters of credit securing any of the Mortgage Loans that form a Cross-Collateralized Group shall be allocated between such Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Loan Documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their outstanding Stated Principal Balances. All other terms of the Mortgage Loans shall remain in full force and effect, without any modification thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall be binding on all future holders of each Mortgage Loan that forms part of a Cross-Collateralized Group.

The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that, to the extent necessary and appropriate, the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, will execute (pursuant to a limited power of attorney provided by the Trustee who will not be liable for any misuse of any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable, or any of its agents or subcontractors) the modification of the Loan Documents that complies with this Agreement to remove the threat of impairment of the ability of the Seller or the Trust Fund to exercise its remedies with respect to the Primary Collateral securing the Mortgage Loan(s) held by such party resulting from the exercise of remedies by the other such party. All costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Special Servicer and the Master Servicer with respect to any Cross-Collateralized Group pursuant to this paragraph and the first, second and third preceding paragraphs shall be advanced by the Master Servicer as provided for in Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and such advances and interest thereon shall be included in the calculation of Purchase Price for the Affected Loan(s) to be repurchased or replaced.

Subject to the Seller’s right to cure set forth above in this Section 6(e), and further subject to Sections 2.01(b) and 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, failure of the Seller to deliver the documents referred to in clauses (1), (2), (7), (8) and (18) in the definition of “Mortgage File” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for any Mortgage Loan shall be deemed a Material Document Defect; provided, however, that no Document Defect (except such deemed Material Document Defect described above) shall be considered to be a Material Document Defect unless the document with respect to which the Document Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the lender’s rights or remedies under the related Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any Mortgagor or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, if a Mortgage Loan is not secured by a Mortgaged Property that is, in whole or in part, a hotel, restaurant (operated by a Mortgagor), healthcare facility, nursing home, assisted living facility, self-storage facility, theater or fitness center (operated by a Mortgagor), then the failure to deliver copies of the UCC financing statements with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall not be a Material Defect.

If there is a Material Defect with respect to one or more Mortgaged Properties securing a Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall not be obligated to repurchase such Mortgage Loan if (i) the affected Mortgaged Property(ies) may be released pursuant to the terms of any partial release provisions in the related Loan Documents (and such Mortgaged Property(ies) are, in fact, released), (ii) the remaining Mortgaged Property(ies) satisfy the requirements, if any, set forth in the related Loan Documents and the Seller provides an opinion of counsel to the effect that such

-18-

release would not (A) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or the Trust and (iii) each Rating Agency has provided a Rating Agency Confirmation.

With respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees that if a “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) exists under the related Outside Servicing Agreement with respect to the related Outside Serviced Companion Loan included in the related Outside Securitization Trust, and such Outside Serviced Companion Loan is repurchased by or on behalf of such Seller (or other responsible repurchasing entity) from the related Outside Securitization Trust as a result of such “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in such Outside Servicing Agreement), then the Seller shall repurchase such Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such repurchase obligation does not apply to any “material document defect” (as such term or any analogous term is defined in the related Outside Servicing Agreement) related solely to the promissory note for such Outside Serviced Companion Loan.

(f)In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or more Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 6, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall provide that the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each tender to the repurchasing entity, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt executed by the repurchasing entity evidencing such repurchase or substitution, all portions of the Mortgage File (including, without limitation, the Servicing File) and other documents and all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or appropriate to the repurchasing or substituting entity or its designee in the same manner, but only if the respective documents have been previously assigned or endorsed to the Trustee, and pursuant to appropriate forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to which such documents were previously assigned to the Trustee or as otherwise reasonably requested to effect the retransfer and reconveyance of the Mortgage Loan and the security therefor to the Seller or its designee; provided that such tender by the Trustee, the Certificate Administrator and/or the Custodian shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release and an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the requirements for repurchase or substitution have been satisfied. In the event a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for a Defective Mortgage Loan by the Seller as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian the related Mortgage File and to the Master Servicer all Escrow Payments and reserve funds pertaining to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan possessed by it and a certification to the effect that such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies all of the requirements of the definition of “Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan” in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

If any Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased or replaced as contemplated by this Section 6, the Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of any deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable, the substitution of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) and deliver or cause the delivery of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the parties to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Upon any substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for a deleted Mortgage Loan, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall become part of the Trust Fund and be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

-19-

(g)The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Notes or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files.

(h)           Each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other party upon discovery of any breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement. The Seller’s obligation to cure any Material Defect or to repurchase, or substitute for, or make a Loss of Value Payment with respect to, any affected Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a breach of any of the Seller’s representations or warranties contained in Section 6(c) of this Agreement or a Document Defect with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

(i)The Seller shall promptly notify the Depositor if (i) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request (other than from the Depositor), (ii) the Seller repurchases or replaces a Mortgage Loan, (iii) the Seller receives a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request Withdrawal (other than from the Depositor) or (iv) the Seller rejects or disputes any Repurchase Request. Each such notice shall be given no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after (A) with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding sentence, receipt of a Repurchase Communication of a Repurchase Request or a Repurchase Request Withdrawal, as applicable, and (B) with respect to clauses (ii) and (iv) of the preceding sentence, the occurrence of the event giving rise to the requirement for such notice, and shall include (1) the identity of the related Mortgage Loan and the person making the Repurchase Request, (2) the date (x) such Repurchase Communication of such Repurchase Request or Repurchase Request Withdrawal was received, (y) the related Mortgage Loan was repurchased or replaced or (z) the Repurchase Request was rejected or disputed, as applicable, and (3) if known, the basis for (x) the Repurchase Request (as asserted in the Repurchase Request) or (y) any rejection or dispute of a Repurchase Request, as applicable.

The Seller shall provide to the Depositor and the Certificate Administrator the Seller’s “Central Index Key” number assigned by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and a true, correct and complete copy of the relevant portions of any Form ABS-15G that the Seller is required to file with the Commission under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act with respect to the Mortgage Loans, on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days before the date such Form ABS-15G is required to be filed with the Commission.

In addition, the Seller shall provide the Depositor, upon request, such other information in its possession as would permit the Depositor to comply with its obligations under Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act to disclose fulfilled and unfulfilled repurchase requests. Any such information requested shall be provided as promptly as practicable after such request is made.

The Seller agrees that no Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider will be required to provide information in a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice that is protected by the attorney-client privilege or attorney work product doctrines. In addition, the Seller hereby acknowledges that (i) any Rule 15Ga-1 Notice provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is so provided only to assist the Seller, the Depositor and their respective Affiliates to comply with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act, Items 1104 and 1121 of Regulation AB and any other requirement of law

-20-

or regulation and (ii)(A) no action taken by, or inaction of, a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider and (B) no information provided pursuant to Section 2.03(a) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement by a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider shall be deemed to constitute a waiver or defense to the exercise of any legal right the Rule 15Ga-1 Notice Provider may have with respect to this Agreement, including with respect to any Repurchase Request that is the subject of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice.

Each party hereto agrees that the receipt of a Rule 15Ga-1 Notice or the delivery of any notice required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6(i) shall not, in and of itself, constitute delivery of notice of, receipt of notice of, or knowledge of the Seller of, any Material Defect.

Each party hereto agrees and acknowledges that, as of the date of this Agreement, the “Central Index Key” number of the Trust Fund is 0002016125.

“Repurchase Communication” means, for purposes of this Section 6(i) only, any communication, whether oral or written, which need not be in any specific form.

(j)The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that it and the Purchaser have engaged Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ernst & Young LLP (the “Accounting Firms”) to perform “due diligence services” (as defined in Rule 17g-10 under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Mortgage Loans and to prepare one or more “third-party due diligence reports” (as defined in Rule 15Ga-2 under the Exchange Act) (collectively, the “Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report”) in connection therewith.

The Seller further represents and warrants that no portion of the Accountants’ Third-Party Due Diligence Report contains, with respect to the information contained therein with respect to the Mortgage Loans, any names, addresses, other personal identifiers or zip codes with respect to any individuals, or any other personally identifiable or other information that would be associated with an individual, including without limitation any “nonpublic personal information” within the meaning of Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999. The Underwriters and Initial Purchasers are third-party beneficiaries of the provisions set forth in this Section 6(j).

(k)The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is not the Purchaser), the related Outside Servicing Agreement contains, or at the time such Outside Servicing Agreement is executed and delivered will contain, terms and provisions (or, to the extent

-21-

specified on Exhibit E to this Agreement, the related Co-Lender Agreement contains terms and provisions (and, to the extent contained in the related Co-Lender Agreement, the applicable documents provide that such terms and provisions are deemed included by reference into the related Outside Servicing Agreement)) that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement. The Seller further represents and warrants that, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is, or that at any time that any Certificate is outstanding becomes, part of an Outside Serviced Whole Loan (and for which the depositor under the Outside Servicing Agreement is the Purchaser), the related Co-Lender Agreement does not contain any terms or provisions that conflict with (or that will conflict with) any terms or provisions in the related Outside Servicing Agreement that are designed to comply in all material respects with the provisions set forth on Exhibit E to this Agreement.

SECTION 7                       Review of Mortgage File. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Custodian will be required to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and if it finds any document or documents not to have been properly executed, or to be missing or to be defective on its face in any material respect, to notify the Purchaser, which shall promptly notify the Seller.

The obligation of the Seller to sell the Mortgage Loans shall be subject to the Seller having received the consideration for the Mortgage Loans as contemplated by Section 1 of this Agreement.

(b)             The Pooling and Servicing Agreement (to the extent it affects the obligations of the Seller hereunder), in such form as is agreed upon and acceptable to the Purchaser, the Seller, the Underwriters, the Initial Purchasers and their respective counsel in their reasonable discretion, shall be duly executed and delivered by all signatories as required pursuant to the terms thereof.

(v)                          a letter from counsel of the Seller substantially to the effect that (a) nothing has come to such counsel’s attention that would lead such counsel to believe that the agreed upon sections of the Preliminary Prospectus (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement), the Offering Circular, any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular or any final Loan-Specific Offering Circular, in each case as of the date thereof or as of the Closing Date (or, in the case of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Preliminary Offering Circular or any preliminary Loan-Specific Offering Circular, solely as of the time of sale) contained or contain, as applicable, with respect to the Seller Information, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein relating to the Seller Information, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (b) the Seller Information in the Prospectus appears to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of Regulation AB.

Each Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan is a portion of a whole loan evidenced by a Mortgage Note. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to the Purchaser, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller or, with respect to any Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the trustee for the related Other Securitization Trust), participation or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. The Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Mortgage Loan, and the assignment to the Purchaser constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Mortgage Loan.

(2) Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Mortgage Loan documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment premium/yield maintenance charges) may be further limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Mortgage Loan documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the Mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Mortgage Loan documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on intentional fraud by Seller in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, that would deny the Mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents.

Exhibit B-1

(3) Mortgage Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

(4) Hospitality Provisions. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan that is secured by a hospitality property operated pursuant to a franchise agreement includes an executed comfort letter or similar agreement signed by the Mortgagor and franchisor of such property enforceable by the Issuing Entity against such franchisor, either directly or as an assignee of the originator. The Mortgage or related security agreement for each Mortgage Loan secured by a hospitality property creates a security interest in the revenues of such property for which a UCC financing statement has been filed in the appropriate filing office.

(5) Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except by written instruments set forth in the related Mortgage File or as otherwise provided in the related Mortgage Loan documents (a)(1) there has been no forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan which such forbearance, waiver or modification relates to the COVID-19 emergency, (2) as of the Cut-Off Date, to the knowledge of the Seller, after due inquiry, there has been no written request from the related Mortgagor for a forbearance, waiver or modification of the material terms of the Mortgage Loan, which such request relates to the COVID-19 emergency and (3) other than as related to the COVID-19 emergency, the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Mortgage Loan guaranty and related Mortgage Loan documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the Mortgagor nor the guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the Mortgage Loan. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, except as contained in a written document included in the Mortgage File, there have been no modifications, amendments or waivers, that could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on such Mortgage Loan consented to by the Seller on or after the Cut-Off Date.

(6) Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each endorsement or assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases from the Seller or its affiliate is in recordable form (but for the insertion of the name of the assignee and any related recording information which is not yet available to the Seller) and constitutes a legal, valid and binding endorsement or assignment from the Seller, or its affiliate, as applicable. Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee (or if identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, leasehold) interest in the Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such

Exhibit B-2

Mortgage Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below) and the exceptions to paragraph 7 below (each such exception, a “Title Exception”)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions) as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy (as described below), and as of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by the applicable Title Policy. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(7) Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy or a “marked up” commitment, in each case with escrow instructions and binding on the title insurer) (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record specifically identified in the Title Policy; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property; (f) if the related Mortgage Loan constitutes a cross collateralized Mortgage Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for another Mortgage Loan contained in the same cross collateralized group of Mortgage Loans, and (g) condominium declarations of record and identified in such Title Policy, provided that none of clauses (a) through (g), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or principal use of the Mortgaged Property, the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, or the current ability of the related Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). For purposes of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the

Exhibit B-3

date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon. Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the second preceding sentence none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of the Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy. Each Title Policy contains no exclusion for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such affirmative insurance is not available in which case such exclusion may exist), that the Mortgaged Property shown on the survey is the same as the property legally described in the Mortgage.

(8) Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Mortgage Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan, as of the Cut-Off Date there are no subordinate mortgages or junior mortgage liens encumbering the related Mortgaged Property other than Permitted Encumbrances, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (6) above), and equipment and other personal property financing. The Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor other than as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B.

(9) Assignment of Leases and Rents. There exists as part of the related Mortgage File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions (and, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan, subject to the related Assignment of Leases constituting security for the entire Whole Loan), each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, subject to applicable law and the Standard Qualifications, provides that, upon an event of default under the Mortgage Loan, a receiver may be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related Mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the Mortgagee.

(10) Financing Statements. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each Mortgage Loan or related security agreement establishes a valid security interest in, and a UCC-1 financing statement has been filed and/or recorded (or, in the case of fixtures, the Mortgage constitutes a fixture filing) in all places necessary at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan (or, if not filed and/or recorded, has submitted or caused to be submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording) to perfect a valid security interest in, the personal property (creation and perfection of which is governed by the UCC) owned by the

Exhibit B-4

Mortgagor and necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property in its current use other than (1) non-material personal property, (2) personal property subject to purchase money security interests and (3) personal property that is leased equipment. Each UCC-1 financing statement, if any, filed with respect to personal property constituting a part of the related Mortgaged Property and each UCC-3 assignment, if any, filed with respect to such financing statement was in suitable form for filing in the filing office in which such financing statement was filed. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements is required to effect such perfection.

(11) Condition of Property. The Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six months of origination of the Mortgage Loan and within twelve months of the Cut-Off Date.

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan no more than twelve months prior to the Cut-Off Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the Closing Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than (i) deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination and (ii) any damage fully covered by insurance) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan.

(12) Taxes and Assessments. As of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Cut-Off Date, all taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges) due with respect to the Mortgaged Property (excluding any related personal property) securing a Mortgage Loan that is or could become a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that became due and owing prior to the Cut-Off Date with respect to each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or, if the appropriate amount of such taxes or charges is being appealed or is otherwise in dispute, the unpaid taxes or charges are covered by an escrow of funds or other security sufficient to pay such tax or charge and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, any such taxes, assessments and other charges will not be considered due and payable until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon.

(13) Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding pending and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the date of origination and as of the Cut-Off Date, there is no proceeding threatened for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property.

(14) Actions Concerning Mortgage Loan. To the Seller’s knowledge, based on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7), an engineering report or property condition

Exhibit B-5

assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), as of origination there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Mortgage Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage Loan documents; (f) the current ability of the Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service such Mortgage Loan; or (g) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property.

(15) Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and escrow payments currently required to be escrowed with the Mortgagee pursuant to each Mortgage Loan (including capital improvements and environmental remediation reserves) are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no delinquencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required under the related Mortgage Loan documents are being conveyed by the Seller to the depositor or its servicer (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, to the depositor under the related Outside Servicing Agreement or the related Outside Servicer for the related Other Securitization Trust).

(16) No Holdbacks. The principal amount of the Mortgage Loan stated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule has been fully disbursed as of the Closing Date and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder (except in those cases where the full amount of the Mortgage Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs, occupancy, performance or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by the Seller to merit such holdback).

(17) Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements (as defined below), in an amount (subject to customary deductibles) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

Exhibit B-6

“Insurance Ratings Requirements” means either (1) a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” from S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, or (2) the Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements. “Syndicate Insurance Ratings Requirements” means insurance provided by a syndicate of insurers, as to which (i) if such syndicate consists of 5 or more members, at least 60% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 40% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, and (ii) if such syndicate consists of 4 or fewer members, at least 75% of the coverage is provided by insurers that meet the Insurance Ratings Requirements (under clause (1) of the definition of such term) and up to 25% of the coverage is provided by insurers that have a claims paying or financial strength rating of at least “BBB-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with respect to each Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in an amount equal to the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program, plus such additional excess flood coverage in an amount as is generally required by prudent institutional commercial mortgage lenders originating mortgage loans for securitization.

If the Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms, in an amount not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor and included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements.

The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property

Exhibit B-7

damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the probable maximum loss or scenario expected loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the PML would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC in an amount not less than 100% of the PML.

The Mortgage Loan documents require insurance proceeds (or an amount equal to such insurance proceeds) in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the related Mortgage Loan or Whole Loan, as applicable, the Mortgagee (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section that are required by the Mortgage Loan documents to be paid as of the Cut-Off Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the Mortgagee under the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Such insurance policies will inure to the benefit of the trustee (or, in the case of an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan, the applicable Outside Trustee). Each related Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the Mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Mortgagee of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by the Seller.

(18) Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Parcels. Based solely on evaluation of the Title Policy (as defined in paragraph 7) and survey, if any, an engineering report or property condition assessment as described in paragraph 11, applicable local law compliance materials as described in paragraph 25, and the ESA (as defined in paragraph 41), each Mortgaged

Exhibit B-8

Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has permanent access from a recorded easement or right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and other utilities necessary for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, all of which are adequate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been made or is required to be made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax parcels (or the Mortgage Loan documents so require such application in the future), in which case the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which the Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax parcels are created.

(19) No Encroachments. To the Seller’s knowledge based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the Title Policy obtained in connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan, and except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the current marketability or principal use of the Mortgaged Property: (a) all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Mortgage Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; (b) no material improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy; and (c) no material improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments that are insured against by the applicable Title Policy.

(20) No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Mortgage Loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date) or an equity participation by the Seller.

(21) REMIC. The Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, (A) the issue price of the Mortgage Loan to the related Mortgagor at origination did not exceed the non-contingent principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and (B) either: (a) such Mortgage Loan is secured by an interest in real property (including permanently affixed buildings and structural components, such as wiring, plumbing systems and central heating and air-conditioning systems, that are integrated into such buildings, serve such buildings in their passive functions and do not produce or contribute to the production of income other than consideration for the use or occupancy of space, but excluding personal property) having a fair market value (i) at the date the Mortgage Loan was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date or (ii) at the Closing

Exhibit B-9

Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (A) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (B) a proportionate amount of any lien that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan; or (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Closing Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Mortgage Loan or (y) satisfies the provisions of either sub-clause (B)(a)(i) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (B)(a)(ii), including the proviso thereto. For purposes of the preceding sentence, a Mortgage Loan will not be considered “significantly modified” solely by reason of the borrower having been granted a COVID-19 related forbearance provided that: (a) such Mortgage Loan forbearance is covered by Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12) by reason of satisfying the requirements for such coverage stated in Section 5.02(2) of Revenue Procedure 2020-26 (as amplified by Revenue Procedure 2021-12); and (b) the Seller identifies such Mortgage Loan and provides (x) the date on which such forbearance was granted, (y) the length in months of the forbearance, and (z) how the payments in forbearance will be paid (that is, by extension of maturity, change of amortization schedule, etc.). Any prepayment premiums and yield maintenance charges applicable to the Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph will have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

(22) Compliance with Usury Laws. The mortgage rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) of such Mortgage Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(23) Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Cut-Off Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Mortgage Loan by the Issuing Entity.

(24) Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related Mortgagee.

Exhibit B-10

(25) Local Law Compliance. To the Seller’s knowledge, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, a survey, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan are in material compliance with applicable laws, zoning ordinances, rules, covenants, and restrictions (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) governing the occupancy, use, and operation of such Mortgaged Property or constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure and any non-conformity with zoning laws constitutes a legal non-conforming use or structure which does not materially and adversely affect the use, operation or value of such Mortgaged Property. In the event of casualty or destruction, (a) the Mortgaged Property may be restored or repaired to the full extent necessary to maintain the use of the structure immediately prior to such casualty or destruction, (b) law and ordinance insurance coverage has been obtained for the Mortgaged Property in amounts customarily required by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily loans intended for securitization, (c) title insurance policy coverage has been obtained with respect to any non-conforming use or structure, or (d) the inability to restore the Mortgaged Property to the full extent of the use or structure immediately prior to the casualty would not materially and adversely affect the use or operation of such Mortgaged Property. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

(26) Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents that it will keep all material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals necessary for the operation of the Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the Seller’s knowledge based upon any of a letter from any government authorities, zoning consultant’s report or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization; all such material licenses, permits, franchises, certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals are in effect or the failure to obtain or maintain such material licenses, permits, franchises or certificates of occupancy and applicable governmental approvals does not materially and adversely affect the use and/or operation of the Mortgaged Property as it was used and operated as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan or the rights of a holder of the related Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable regulations, zoning and building laws.

(27) Recourse Obligations. The Mortgage Loan documents for each Mortgage Loan (a) provide that such Mortgage Loan becomes full recourse to the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis) in any of the following events (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) if any petition for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation

Exhibit B-11

pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, will be filed by, consented to, or acquiesced in by, the Mortgagor; (ii) the Mortgagor or guarantor will have solicited or caused to be solicited petitioning creditors to cause an involuntary bankruptcy filing with respect to the Mortgagor or (iii) transfers of either the Mortgaged Property or controlling equity interests in the Mortgagor made in violation of the Mortgage Loan documents; and (b) contains provisions for recourse against the Mortgagor and guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that collectively, as of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, have assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis), for losses and damages resulting from the following (or negotiated provisions of substantially similar effect): (i) the Mortgagor’s misappropriation of rents after an event of default, security deposits, insurance proceeds, or condemnation awards; (ii) the Mortgagor’s fraud or intentional material misrepresentation; (iii) breaches of the environmental covenants in the Mortgage Loan documents; or (iv) the Mortgagor’s commission of intentional material physical waste at the Mortgaged Property (but, in some cases, only to the extent there is sufficient cash flow generated by the related Mortgaged Property to prevent such waste).

(28) Mortgage Releases. The terms of the related Mortgage or related Mortgage Loan documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial defeasance (as described in paragraph 33), in each case of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a Defeasance (defined in paragraph 33 below), (d) releases of out-parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation. With respect to any partial release (including in connection with any partial Defeasance) under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b)(2) and (ii) would not cause the subject Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the Mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Mortgage Loan documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make

Exhibit B-12

a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions.

In the case of any Mortgage Loan, in the event of a condemnation or taking of any portion of a Mortgaged Property by a State or any political subdivision or authority thereof, whether by legal proceeding or by agreement, unless an opinion of counsel is delivered as specified in clause (y) of the preceding paragraph, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans) in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, the condemnation proceeds or the award from any such taking may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property (reduced by (1) the amount of any lien on the real property that is senior to the Mortgage Loan and (2) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property that is in parity with the Mortgage Loan) is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loan (together with any related Pari Passu Companion Loans).

No such Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross collateralized with another Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross-collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties or a portion thereof, including due to a partial condemnation, other than in compliance with the loan-to-value ratio and other requirements of the REMIC Provisions.

(29) Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage Loan with (a) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, (b) quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls (or maintenance schedules in the case of Mortgage Loans secured by residential cooperative properties) for properties that have any individual lease which accounts for more than 5% of the in-place base rent, and (c) annual financial statements.

(30) Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Mortgage Loan over $20 million, as of origination the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 and the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015 (collectively referred to as “TRIPRA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the Mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIPRA, or damages related thereto, except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by commercial availability on commercially reasonable terms, or as otherwise indicated on Exhibit C; provided, that if TRIPRA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then,

Exhibit B-13

provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Mortgage Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor will not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Mortgage Loan documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance) at the time of the origination of the Mortgage Loan, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount.

(31) Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Mortgage Loan contains a “due-on-sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the Mortgagee which are customarily acceptable to the Seller, including, but not limited to, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Mortgage Loan documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold, other than as related to (i) family and estate planning transfers or transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (iii) transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in a Mortgagor, (iv) transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Mortgage Loan documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Mortgage Loan documents, (v) transfers of common stock in publicly traded companies or (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraphs 28 and 33 herein, or (vii) by reason of any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-1 to this Exhibit B, or future permitted mezzanine debt as set forth on Schedule B-2 to this Exhibit B or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan of any Mortgage Loan or any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is permitted under the related Mortgage Loan documents, (ii) purchase money security interests (iii) any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan as set forth on Schedule B-3 to this Exhibit B or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan documents provide that to the extent any Rating Agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

(32) Single-Purpose Entity. Each Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Single-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Mortgage Loan is outstanding. Each Mortgage Loan with a Cut-Off Date Balance of $30 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-

Exhibit B-14

consolidation of the Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Single-Purpose Entity” means an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents and the related Mortgage Loan documents (or if the Mortgage Loan has a Cut-Off Date Balance equal to $10 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Mortgage Loan documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Mortgage Loan documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Mortgage Loan documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Mortgage Loan that is cross collateralized and cross-defaulted with the related Mortgage Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

(33) Defeasance. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that, pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents, can be defeased (a “Defeasance”), (i) the Mortgage Loan documents provide for defeasance as a unilateral right of the Mortgagor, subject to satisfaction of conditions specified in the Mortgage Loan documents; (ii) the Mortgage Loan cannot be defeased within two years after the Closing Date; (iii) the Mortgagor is permitted to pledge only United States “government securities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(ii), the revenues from which will, in the case of a full Defeasance, be sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Loan when due, including the entire remaining principal balance on the maturity date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium) or, if the Mortgage Loan is an ARD Mortgage Loan, the entire principal balance outstanding on the Anticipated Repayment Date (or on or after the first date on which payment may be made without payment of a yield maintenance charge or prepayment premium), and if the Mortgage Loan permits partial releases of real property in connection with partial defeasance, the revenues from the collateral will be sufficient to pay all such scheduled payments calculated on a principal amount equal to a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (A) 110% of the allocated loan amount for the real property to be released and (B) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan; (iv) the defeasance collateral is not permitted to be subject to prepayment, call, or early redemption; (v) the Mortgagor is required to provide a certification from an independent certified public accountant that the collateral is sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note as set forth in clause (iii) above; (vi) the defeased note and the defeasance collateral are required to be assumed by a Single-Purpose Entity; (vii) the Mortgagor is required to provide an opinion of counsel that the Trustee has a perfected security interest in such collateral prior to any other claim or interest; and (viii) the Mortgagor is required to pay all rating agency fees associated with defeasance (if rating confirmation is a specific condition precedent thereto) and all other reasonable expenses associated with defeasance, including, but not limited to, accountant’s fees and opinions of counsel.

Exhibit B-15

(34) Fixed Interest Rates. Each Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate that remains fixed throughout the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, except in the case of ARD Mortgage Loans and situations where default interest is imposed.

(35) Ground Leases. For purposes of this Exhibit B, a “Ground Lease” means a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan where the Mortgage Loan is secured by a Ground Leasehold estate in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of the Seller, its successors and assigns (collectively, the “Ground Lease and Related Documents”), the Seller represents and warrants that:

(a) The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease and Related Documents permit the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and do not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage. No material change in the terms of the Ground Lease had occurred since the origination of the Mortgage Loan, except by any written instruments which are included in the related Mortgage File;

(b) The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Mortgage File (or in such Ground Lease and Related Documents) that the Ground Lease may not be amended, modified, canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee;

(c) The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Mortgage Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Mortgage Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

(d) The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any interests, estates, liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances and Title Exceptions; or (ii) is the subject of a subordination, non-disturbance or attornment agreement or similar agreement to which the Mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest is subject;

Exhibit B-16

(e) Subject to the notice requirements of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, the Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid), and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with the Ground Lease or, if such consent is required it either has been obtained or cannot be unreasonably withheld, provided that such Ground Lease has not been terminated and all amounts due thereunder have been paid);

(f) The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Closing Date;

(g) The Ground Lease and Related Documents require the lessor to give to the Mortgagee written notice of any default, provided that no notice of default or termination is effective against the Mortgagee unless such notice is given to the Mortgagee;

(h) A Mortgagee is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the Mortgagee’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i) The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by the Seller in connection with the origination of similar commercial or multifamily loans intended for securitization;

(j) Under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest (other than in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in subpart (k)) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Mortgage Loan documents) the Mortgagee or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest;

Exhibit B-17

(k) In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease and Related Documents, any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l) Provided that the Mortgagee cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with the Mortgagee upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

(36) Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been, in all respects legal and have met with customary industry standards for servicing of commercial loans for conduit loan programs.

(37) Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Mortgage Loan and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Mortgage Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Exhibit B.

(38) No Material Default; Payment Record. No Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required payments in the prior 12 months (or since origination if such Mortgage Loan has been originated within the past 12 months), and as of Cut-Off Date, no Mortgage Loan is delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Mortgage Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Exhibit B. No person other than the holder of such Mortgage Loan may declare any event of default under the Mortgage Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under the Mortgage Loan documents.

(39) Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Mortgage Loan and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Cut-Off Date, neither the Mortgaged Property (other than any tenants of such Mortgaged Property), nor any portion thereof, is the subject of, and no Mortgagor,

Exhibit B-18

guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

(40) Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Mortgage Loan and other than as set forth on Schedule B-4 to this Exhibit B, no Mortgage Loan has a Mortgagor that is an Affiliate of a Mortgagor with respect to another Mortgage Loan. An “Affiliate” for purposes of this paragraph (40) means, a Mortgagor that is under direct or indirect common ownership and control with another Mortgagor.

(41) Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II environmental site assessment) and, with respect to certain Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable environmental laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related Mortgagee; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated or contained in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action, completion or closure letter or its equivalent was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the environmental issue affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) an environmental policy or a lender’s pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the identified circumstance or condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than “A-” (or the equivalent) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, Fitch Ratings, Inc. and/or A.M. Best Company; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such condition or circumstance and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the

Exhibit B-19

Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To the Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-13 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

(42) Appraisal. The Servicing File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within 6 months of the Mortgage Loan origination date, and within 12 months of the Cut-Off Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser that (i) is a Member of the Appraisal Institute, and (ii) to the Seller’s knowledge, had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation. Each appraisal contains a statement or is accomplished by a letter from the appraiser, to the effect that the appraisal was performed in accordance with the requirement of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as in effect on the date such Mortgage Loan was originated.

(43) Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Mortgage Loan which is set forth in the mortgage loan schedule attached as an exhibit to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement is true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-Off Date and contains all information required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to be contained therein.

(44) Cross-Collateralization. No Mortgage Loan is cross collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other mortgage loan that is outside the Mortgage Pool, except in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan.

(45) Advance of Funds by the Seller. Except for loan proceeds advanced at the time of loan origination or other payments contemplated by the Mortgage Loan documents, no advance of funds has been made by the Seller to the related Mortgagor, and no funds have been received from any person other than the related Mortgagor or an affiliate, directly, or, to the knowledge of the Seller, indirectly for, or on account of, payments due on the Mortgage Loan. Neither the Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contribution to any Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan, other than contributions made on or prior to the Closing Date.

(46) Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Seller has complied in all material respects with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Mortgage Loan.

For purposes of this Exhibit B, “Mortgagee” means the mortgagee, grantee or beneficiary under any Mortgage, any holder of legal title to any portion of any Mortgage Loan or, if applicable, any agent or servicer on behalf of such party.

Exhibit B-20

For purposes of this Exhibit B, “Mortgagor” means the obligor or obligors on a Mortgage Note, including without limitation, any person that has acquired the related Mortgaged Property and assumed the obligations of the original obligor under the Mortgage Note and including in connection with any Mortgage Loan that utilizes an indemnity deed of trust structure, the borrower and the Mortgaged Property owner/payment guarantor/mortgagor individually and collectively, as the context may require.

For purposes of this Exhibit B, the phrases “the Seller’s knowledge” or “the Seller’s belief” and other words and phrases of like import mean, except where otherwise expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, the actual state of knowledge or belief of the Seller, its officers and employees directly responsible for the underwriting, origination, servicing or sale of the Mortgage Loans regarding the matters expressly set forth in these representations and warranties, in each case without having conducted any independent inquiry into such matters and without any obligation to have done so (except (i) having sent to the servicers servicing the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Seller, if any, specific inquiries regarding the matters referred to and (ii) as expressly set forth in these representations and warranties). All information contained in documents which are part of or required to be part of a Mortgage File (to the extent such documents exist) will be deemed within the Seller’s knowledge.
