(i) The Depositor has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation and is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction or its formation or organization. The Depositor has the corporate power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as such properties are presently owned and such business is presently conducted. The Depositor has the corporate power and authority to own and acquire the Mortgage Loans;
(ii) Each of the Operative Agreements to which it is a party has been duly authorized and executed by a duly authorized officer, manager or other authorized representative and each constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with its terms;
(iii) The transfer and sale by the Depositor of the Mortgage Loans to the Issuing Entity pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the compliance by the Depositor with the provisions of the Operative Agreements to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Operative Agreements and the fulfillment of the terms thereof will not violate or breach any of the terms and provisions of the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Depositor;
(iv) The Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”), and complies with the requirements of the TIA and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder;
(v) The Indenture creates a valid security interest in favor of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, in the Issuing Entity’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral securing the obligations of the Issuing Entity under the Indenture in which a security interest may be created pursuant to the UCC;
(vi) The Registration Statement has been declared effective under the Act; the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement have each been filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b); and, to the best of our knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings therefor have been instituted by the Commission;
(vii) Any Free Writing Prospectus required to be filed by the Depositor with the Commission (other than those Free Writing Prospectuses containing Issuer Information prepared by the Underwriters that the Underwriters fail to deliver) has been filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433 of the Rules and Regulations in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 433;
(viii) The Registration Statement, the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in the Approved Offering Materials (in each case other than (A) the financial statements, schedules, tables and other financial and statistical data included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom and (B) any documents incorporated by reference, as to which such counsel need not express an opinion), as of their respective effective or issue dates, as the case may be, each appeared on its face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the applicable requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations;
(ix) The information in the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Offering Document under the captions “Description of the Notes,” “The Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the Transfer and Servicing Agreement” and “The Trust Agreement and the Indenture,” in each case, to the extent that it constitutes a summary of certain provisions of the Notes and of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the Indenture, has been reviewed by such counsel and is correct in all material respects; the statements contained under the caption “ERISA Considerations,” insofar as such statements describe certain provisions of federal statutes and regulations, have been reviewed by such counsel, and such statements describe such provisions and regulations; and the statements contained under the caption “Federal Income Tax Consequences,” insofar as such statements constitute conclusions of law, are true and correct in all material respects as set forth therein;
(x) The security interests of each of the Depositor and the Issuing Entity the Collateral transferred pursuant to the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, in each case, if a security interest in any such item of Collateral can be perfected by filing, will be perfected upon the filing of the Financing Statements in the appropriate filing office in the State of Maryland, which is the proper location to file against the Seller and the Depositor;
(xi) Under current United States federal income tax law, based upon certain financial calculations prepared by the Underwriters concerning the projected payments on the Notes and assuming the accuracy of and compliance with the factual representations, covenants and other provisions of the Operative Agreements without any waiver or modification thereof, although there are no regulations, rulings or judicial precedents addressing the characterization for United States federal income tax purposes of securities having terms substantially the same as those of the Notes, the Notes, other than any Notes, or portions of Classes of Notes which the owner of the Ownership Certificate, either directly or indirectly through one or more Qualified REIT Subsidiaries or entities that are disregarded for United States federal income tax purposes that are wholly owned by the related REIT or a related Qualified REIT Subsidiary acquires beneficial ownership thereof (the “Retained Notes”), will be treated as debt for United States federal income tax purposes. In addition, we are of the opinion that, if any Retained Note is subsequently sold or transferred to a taxable REIT subsidiary or a party unrelated to the beneficial owner of the Ownership Certificate, such Retained Note will be treated as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes as of the date of such sale, assuming that the Ownership Certificate continues to be held by (a) a REIT, (b) a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or (c) an entity that is disregarded for United States federal income tax purposes that is wholly owned by a REIT or a Qualified REIT Subsidiary, determined as of the date of such sale or transfer where appropriate, and provided that:
(A) no modifications have been made to the Operative Agreements as of the date of such sale or transfer;
(B) the respective ratings of such Retained Note as of the date of such sale or transfer are not lower than the rating for such Retained Note as of the Delivery Date; and
(C) no adverse changes have been made to (or that would adversely affect the application of) the legal authorities applicable to these opinions as of the date hereof.
(xii) Although the Issuing Entity will be classified as a taxable mortgage pool, the Issuing Entity will not be subject to United States federal income tax as long as the beneficial owner of the Ownership Certificate is (a) a REIT or (b) a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or (c) an entity that is disregarded for United States federal income tax purposes that is wholly owned by a REIT or a Qualified REIT Subsidiary.
(i) The Underwriters shall have received one or more opinions of counsel for each Seller, dated the Delivery Date, substantially to the effect that:
(i) The Seller has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation and is in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland. The Seller has the organizational power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as such properties are presently owned and such business is presently conducted. The Seller has the corporate power and authority to acquire and own the Mortgage Loans.
(ii) The Seller has the corporate power and authority to (A) execute and deliver the Operative Agreements to which it is a party, (B) perform its obligations under and consummate the transactions provided for in such Operative Agreements, and (C) transfer its rights, title and interests in, to and under the related Mortgage Loans to the Depositor on the terms and conditions provided in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.
(iii) Each of the Operative Agreements has been duly authorized and executed by a duly authorized officer of the Seller.
(iv) The transfer and sale by the Seller of the related Mortgage Loans to the Depositor pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the compliance by the Seller with the provisions of the related Operative Agreements and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the related Operative Agreements and the fulfillment of the terms thereof will not violate or breach any of the terms and provisions of the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Seller.

(j) The Underwriters shall have received one or more opinions of counsel to the Depositor substantially to the effect that the transfer of all of the right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans from the related Seller to the Depositor and from the Depositor to the Issuing Entity in each case, constitutes a “true sale” for bankruptcy purposes and with respect to the “non-consolidation” in a bankruptcy proceeding of the related Seller and the Depositor.
(k) The Underwriters shall have received a statement of counsel to the Depositor substantially to the effect that nothing has come to such counsel’s attention that would lead them to believe that the Registration Statement (at the time it became effective), the Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement (in both cases, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement and as of the Delivery Date), the Time of Sale Offering Document (as of the Time of Sale) or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (as of the date of the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus) (other than the financial and statistical information or information contained therein, as to which such counsel need not express an opinion) contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
