• Management of Property (i) Each Individual Property will be managed at all times by the applicable Manager pursuant to a Management Agreement unless terminated as herein provided. Subject to Section 5.1(I), each Borrower and Operating Lessee shall comply with the terms of and enforce its rights under the Management Agreement in all material respects. The Management Agreement shall be terminated by Borrowers or Operating Lessee, at Lender’s request, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Borrowers, Operating Lessee and the applicable Manager (i) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, (ii) if the applicable Manager commits any act which would permit termination by any Borrower or Operating Lessee under the Management Agreement and/or any applicable Franchise Agreement, (iii) the applicable Manager commits any act which constitutes an act of fraud, material misrepresentation, intentional misrepresentation, gross negligence, willful misconduct, misappropriation of funds, or intentional physical waste of any Individual Property, or (iv) Borrower changes the Manager or Franchisor of an Individual Property without prior written consent of Lender (except as otherwise permitted hereunder). If a manager is terminated pursuant hereto, or the Management Agreement is otherwise terminated by Manager pursuant to the terms contained therein, Borrowers and Operating Lessee shall promptly seek to appoint a replacement manager acceptable to Lender in Lender’s discretion, and Borrowers’ or Operating Lessee’s failure to appoint an acceptable manager within thirty (30) days after Lender’s request of Borrowers to terminate the Management Agreement or other termination of the Management Agreement shall constitute an immediate Event of Default. Borrowers or Operating Lessee may from time to time appoint a successor manager to manage an Individual Property, which successor manager shall be approved in writing by Lender in Lender’s discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any successor manager selected hereunder by Lender, any Borrower or Operating Lessee to serve as Manager (a) shall be either (1) the Remington Manager provided, that the Remington Manager shall manage the applicable Individual Property pursuant to the terms of the master management agreement by and among the Borrowers and the Remington Manager, or (2) a reputable management company having at least seven (7) years’ experience in the management of commercial properties with similar uses as the Individual Properties and in the jurisdiction in which the Individual Properties are located and (ii) shall not be paid management fees in excess of fees which are market fees for comparable managers of comparable properties in the same geographic area.

• Management of REO Property (a) Prior to the acquisition of title to any Mortgaged Property securing a defaulted Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall review the operation of such Mortgaged Property and determine the nature of the income that would be derived from such property if it were acquired by the Trust. If the Special Servicer determines from such review that:

• Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of the Trustee (or MERS, as applicable), or in the event the Trustee is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer (with a copy delivered to the Trustee) from any attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located. The Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the Trustee. The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Trustee solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale. The Servicer, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, shall manage, conserve, protect and operate the REO Property in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and operates other foreclosed property for its own account, and in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed. The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same for a period not greater than one year, except as otherwise provided below) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Trust Fund. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.12, in connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in the event the Servicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the Master Servicer or NIMS Insurer otherwise requests, an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged Property to be conducted by a qualified inspector shall be arranged by the Servicer. Upon completion of the inspection, the Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer and NIMS Insurer with a written report of such environmental inspection. In the event that the environmental inspection report indicates that the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. In the event that the environmental inspection report is inconclusive as to the whether or not the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not, without the prior approval of both the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. In such instance, the Master Servicer and/or the NIMS Insurer shall be deemed to have approved such foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure unless either notifies the Servicer in writing, within three (3) days after its receipt of written notice of the proposed foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure from the Servicer, that it disapproves of the related foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. The Servicer shall be reimbursed for all Servicing Advances made pursuant to this paragraph with respect to the related Mortgaged Property from the Custodial Account. In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service (and provided a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer) to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable state law, the applicable Trust REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the imposition of a federal or state tax upon such REMIC. If the Servicer has received such an extension (and provide a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer), then the Servicer shall continue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”). If the Servicer has not received such an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell REO Property within the period ending 3 months before the end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value, as acceptable to the NIMS Insurer or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may be. The Master Servicer shall sign any document or take any other action reasonably requested by the Servicer which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to request such grant of extension. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would: (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any Trust REMIC to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer with respect to the imposition of any such taxes. The Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan at the time it becomes an REO Property. Each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer reasonably determines to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders and provided the sales price and the related terms and conditions are results of arm’s-length negotiation. The proceeds of sale of the REO Property shall be promptly deposited in the Custodial Account. After the expenses of such disposition shall have been paid, the Servicer shall pursuant to Section 3.04 apply any remaining proceeds to payment of any unreimbursed Option One Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances or Monthly Advances or unpaid Seller Remittance Amount incurred with respect to such REO Property. The Servicer shall withdraw from the Custodial Account funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to the Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae Guides.

In conducting any public or private sale under the UCC of its Priority Collateral, the Priority Secured Creditor shall give the Junior Secured Creditor such notice (a “UCC Notice”) of such sale as may be required by the applicable UCC; provided, however, that 10 days’ notice shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable notice. Except as specifically provided in this Section 3.2 or Section 3.4 below, notwithstanding any rights or remedies available to a Junior Secured Creditor under any of the applicable Obligation Documents, applicable law or otherwise, no Junior Secured Creditor shall, directly or indirectly, take any Enforcement Action with respect to Collateral that, as to such Junior Secured Creditor, is Non-Priority Collateral; provided that, subject at all times to the provisions of Section 2, upon the expiration of the applicable Standstill Period, a Junior Secured Creditor (other than any Existing Notes Creditor) may take any Enforcement Action as to such Collateral (provided that it gives the Priority Secured Creditor at least 10 Business Days written notice prior to taking such Enforcement Action); provided, further, that notwithstanding the expiration of the Standstill Period or anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall any Junior Secured Creditor take any Enforcement Action or exercise or continue to exercise any such rights or remedies, or commence or petition for any such action or proceeding (including any foreclosure action or proceeding or any Insolvency Proceeding) as to its Non-Priority Collateral if either (i) an Insolvency Proceeding occurs and is continuing or (ii) the Priority Secured Creditor shall have commenced the enforcement or exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to more than a de minimis portion of such Non-Priority Collateral, or with respect to any of such Non-Priority Collateral as to which the Junior Secured Creditor has commenced an Enforcement Action, as applicable, or commenced any such action or proceeding (including, without limitation, any of the following (if undertaken and pursued to consummate a Disposition of such Collateral within a commercially reasonable time): the solicitation of bids from third parties to conduct the liquidation of all or any material portion of such Collateral, the engagement or retention of sales brokers, marketing agents, investment bankers, accountants, auctioneers or other third parties for the purpose of valuing, marketing, promoting or selling all or any material portion of such Collateral, the notification of account debtors to make payments to the Priority Secured Creditor or its agents, the initiation of any action to take possession of all or any material portion of such Collateral or the commencement of any legal proceedings or actions against or with respect to the foreclosure and sale of all or any material portion of such Collateral), or the diligent attempt in good faith to vacate any stay prohibiting an Enforcement Action with respect to all or any material portion of such Collateral or diligently attempting in good faith to vacate any stay prohibiting an Enforcement Action.

The transaction of any such business by the General Partner, any of its Affiliates or any officer, director, employee, partner, agent or trustee of the General Partner, the Partnership or any of their Affiliates, in their capacity as such, shall not affect, impair or eliminate the limitations on the liability of the Limited Partners or Assignees under this Agreement.

• Title and Management of REO Properties (a) In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property (other than a Mortgaged Property with respect to an Outside Serviced Mortgage Loan) is acquired for the benefit of Certificateholders (or, with respect to a Serviced Loan Combination, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s)) (as a collective whole as if such Certificateholders and, if applicable, such Serviced Companion Loan Holder(s) constituted a single lender) (either by the Trust Fund or by a single member limited liability company established for that purpose) in foreclosure, by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or upon abandonment or reclamation from bankruptcy, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of a nominee of the Trustee (which shall not include the Master Servicer), or a separate trustee or co-trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holders. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall sell any REO Property prior to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which the Lower-Tier REMIC acquires ownership of such REO Property, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.856-6(b)(1), for purposes of Code Section 860G(a)(8), unless (i) the IRS grants (or does not deny) an extension of time (an “REO Extension”) to sell such REO Property or (ii) the Special Servicer obtains an Opinion of Counsel for the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, addressed to the Special Servicer, the Certificate Administrator and the Trustee, to the effect that the holding by the Lower-Tier REMIC of such REO Property subsequent to the close of the third calendar year following the year in which such acquisition occurred will not result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” (as defined in Code Section 860F) of either Trust REMIC, or cause either Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code at any time that any Lower-Tier Regular Interests or Regular Certificates are outstanding. If the Special Servicer is granted (or is not denied) the REO Extension contemplated by clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence or obtains the Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Special Servicer shall sell such REO Property within such longer period as is permitted by such REO Extension or such Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be.

The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund and any related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, shall dispose of any REO Property held by the Trust Fund (i) prior to the last day of such period (taking into account extensions) by which such REO Property is required to be disposed of pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence in a manner provided under Section 3.17 of this Agreement and (ii) on the same terms and conditions as if it were the owner of such REO Property. The Special Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Certificateholders and, if applicable, the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder, solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(8) or result in the receipt by the Trust Fund of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Code Section 860F(a)(2)(B) or (i) endanger the status of either Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon either Trust REMIC or the Trust Fund.
