are true and correct on and as of the then applicable Facility Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, if a Purchased Mortgage Loan has a maturity date that occurs later in time then the then current Facility Expiration Date, Buyer agrees to extend the Facility Expiration Date, First Extended Facility Expiration Date and Second Extended Facility Expiration Date for such specific Purchased Mortgage Loan only and the Facility Amount associated with it to accommodate such Purchased Mortgage Loan (as such dates and amount shall be set forth in the Confirmation with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan). In the event a Purchased Mortgage Loan fails to satisfy either or both of the covenants set forth in clauses (d) or (e) of this Section 3(i), Seller shall have the right to prepay a portion of the Repurchase Price with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan in order to cause the covenants set forth in clauses (d) or (e) to be in compliance.

(v) Seller has delivered an officer’s certificate signed by a duly appointed officer of Seller certifying (a) the Subsequent Advance is made in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan Documents, (b) that Seller has made or will, upon receipt of such Subsequent Purchase Price, contemporaneously make a Subsequent Advance to, at the direction or for the benefit of, the related Mortgagor, (c) the amount of such Subsequent Advance made, and (d) that all conditions precedent to the making of such Subsequent Advance as set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Documents have been satisfied (without giving effect to any Material Purchased Mortgage Loan Modification made by Seller without Buyer’s consent), together with evidence supporting compliance with such conditions precedent; and

(vi) Seller shall have paid to Buyer all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer, including reasonable attorney’s fees, in connection with the related Subsequent Advance.

For the avoidance of doubt, Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that Buyer shall have no liability or obligation whatsoever to make any future or subsequent advances to the Mortgagor under the Mortgage Loan Documents for any Purchased Mortgage Loan, and that the obligations of Buyer to make any Subsequent Purchase hereunder in connection with such future funding obligations are pursuant to and set forth in this Agreement only; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary, upon Buyer’s exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 14(iii) of this Agreement during the continuance of an Event of Default, Buyer will simultaneously assume all obligations of Seller with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans.

Upon such payment of cash, as outlined in the preceding sentence, the Margin Deficit shall be deemed cured. Seller’s failure to cure any Margin Deficit as required by the preceding sentence prior to expiration of the time period set forth in Section 4(b) below shall constitute an Event of Default under the Transaction Documents and shall entitle Buyer to exercise its remedies under Section 14 of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the liquidation remedy provided for in Section 14(iv) of this Agreement).

(b) If any Margin Call is given by Buyer under Section 4(a) of this Agreement at or prior to 2:00 p.m. CST (the “Margin Notice Deadline”) on any Business Day, the Seller shall transfer Dollars as provided in Section 4(a) by no later than 5:00 p.m. CST on the date that is the fifth (5^th) Business Day following the Business Day on which the Margin Call is given. If any Margin Call is given by Buyer under Section 4(a) of this Agreement after the Margin Notice Deadline on any Business Day, the Seller shall transfer Dollars as provided in Section 4(a) by no later than 12:00 p.m. CST on the date that is the sixth (6^th) Business Day following the Business Day on which the Margin Call is given. The failure of Buyer on any one or more occasions to exercise its rights under Section 4(a) of this Agreement shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer or Seller to do so at a later date. Buyer and Seller agree that any failure or delay by Buyer to exercise its rights under Section 4(a) of this Agreement shall not limit such party’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for such party.

(c) Any cash transferred to Buyer pursuant to Section 4(a) of this Agreement with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price of the Purchased Mortgage Loan giving rise to the Margin Deficit until it no longer exists. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any Margin Call under Section 4(a) or 4(b), if Margin Excess with respect to a separate Purchased Mortgage Loan is available, Seller shall have the right to make a Margin Excess Request up to an amount not to exceed the related Margin Excess Amount for the purpose of applying such Margin Excess proceeds in reduction of the Repurchase Price of the Purchased Mortgage Loan giving rise to the Margin Deficit. Upon receipt of such Margin Excess Request pursuant to this Section 4(c), Buyer shall increase the Repurchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loan from which a Margin Excess Request had been submitted and shall decrease the Repurchase Price of the Purchased Mortgage Loan giving rise to the Margin Deficit within one (1) Business Day of such Margin Excess Request provided that the conditions to Buyer’s funding of a Margin Excess Amount under Section 4(e) are otherwise satisfied.

(d) Seller shall repurchase a Purchased Mortgage Loan that has become an Impaired Asset within five (5) Business Days following the date on which Seller is notified by Buyer in writing that such Purchased Mortgage Loan is an Impaired Asset which must be repurchased (a “Required Repurchase Impaired Asset”).

(e) If, at any time during the term of the Facility, the Repurchase Price (excluding Price Differential) of any Purchased Mortgage Loan is less than an amount equal to the product of (i) the Maximum Purchase Price Percentage applicable to such Purchased Mortgage Loan and (ii) the Market Value for such Purchased Mortgage Loan (the “Margin Excess Amount”), then Seller may deliver a written request (a “Margin Excess Request”) to Buyer with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan and Transaction requesting that the Purchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loan be increased by an amount not to exceed the Margin Excess Amount. Seller may not deliver more than one (1) Margin Excess Request for a Purchased Mortgage Loan per calendar month. Buyer shall accept such Margin Excess Request; provided (i) the representations and warranties made by Seller in any of the Transaction Documents, excluding those set forth on Exhibit VI hereto (except with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loan forming the basis for such Margin Excess Request and subject to any exceptions thereto set forth in the related Confirmation), shall be true and correct in all material respects except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall have been true and correct as of such earlier date, (ii) Seller and Guarantor are in compliance with all material covenants under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including Section 5 of the Guaranty, and (iii) Seller shall have paid to Buyer all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer, including reasonable attorney’s fees, in connection with the Margin Excess Request. Subject to satisfaction of the foregoing conditions and such other conditions set forth in this Section 4(e) and upon receipt of such additional documentation in connection therewith as Buyer may reasonably request, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deposit such Margin Excess Amount within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the Margin Excess Request, in immediately available funds, into the Funding Account and, upon receipt of such deposit into the Funding Account, the Purchase Price of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to have increased by such Margin Excess Amount. The parties will enter into such additional documents as may be agreed to document the payment of any such Margin Excess Amount and the associated increase in the

Repurchase Price of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan. Under no circumstances will any Margin Excess Amount be paid (i) if the payment of such Margin Excess Amount would result in (A) the aggregate of the Maximum Repurchase Price for the related Purchased Mortgage Loan when added to the Maximum Repurchase Prices of all then outstanding Transactions (less any reductions in the Repurchase Price for any such Transactions resulting from amounts paid by Seller to Buyer, or Income received by Buyer from the Depository pursuant to Section 5 hereof, and plus any previous Margin Excess Amounts paid in connection therewith, in each case, on or prior to the date of such determination on account of the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Loan) exceeding the Facility Amount in effect on the date of payment of the Margin Excess Amount or (B) the Purchase Price Percentage applicable to such Purchased Mortgage Loan exceeding its Maximum Purchase Price Percentage and (ii) during the continuance of an Event of Default or a Margin Deficit (other than in accordance with Section 4(c)).

5. CASH MANAGEMENT ACCOUNT; SERVICING DIRECTION; MONTHLY DISTRIBUTIONS

(a) The Cash Management Account shall be established at the Depository concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Seller and Buyer. Buyer shall have sole dominion and control (including, without limitation, “control” within the meaning of Section 9-104(a) of the UCC) over the Cash Management Account pursuant to Section 5(i) hereof. All Income in respect of the Purchased Mortgage Loans as well as any interest received from the reinvestment of such Income, shall be deposited by Servicer subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement (including Servicer’s ability to transfer funds to the Cash Management Account net of Qualified Servicing Fees) into the Cash Management Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt and, at the direction of Servicer, shall be remitted by the Depository in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Section 5.

If a Mortgagor forwards any Income with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan to Seller rather than directly to the Servicer, Seller shall (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Mortgagor to forward any future payments directly to the Servicer and (ii) immediately forward such payment to the Servicer or deposit any such amounts into the Cash Management Account.

(c) On each Remittance Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Price Differential that has accrued during the related Pricing Rate Period for the related Transactions to the extent not previously paid to Buyer (including pursuant to the waterfall provisions of this Section 5).

(d) So long as no monetary or material non-monetary Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all Income received by the Depository in respect of the Purchased Mortgage Loan and the related Hedging Transactions during each Collection Period shall be applied by the Depository at the direction of Buyer on the related Remittance Date as follows; provided, however, that if the amount of Principal Payments on deposit equals or exceeds $5,000,000, upon no less than two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice, Seller shall have the right, exercisable no more than one (1) time per month, to cause such Principal Payments only to be applied on a date earlier than the next Remittance Date as specified in the related notice and, in such case, such Principal Payments shall be applied by the Depository starting from priority second of the following:

(i) first, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to the Price Differential which has accrued and is outstanding in respect of all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans as of such Remittance Date;

(ii) second, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to any and all fees, costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and enforcement costs, due and owing by Seller to Buyer (or any other Indemnified Party) under the Transaction Documents as of such Remittance Date;

(iii) third, to remit to Buyer (A) its proportionate share of any Principal Payments received by Seller with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan, in an amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of such Principal Payment received and (y) the Purchase Price Percentage or (B) if such Principal Payment reduces the Mortgagor’s obligation under the Mortgage Note to $0, the Repurchase Price of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan;

(iv) fourth, to remit to Buyer any Exit Fee, if applicable;

(v) fifth, if a Margin Deficit exists with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, to remit to Buyer an amount sufficient to eliminate such outstanding Margin Deficit (without limiting the Seller’s obligation to satisfy a Margin Deficit in a timely manner as required pursuant to Section 4)

(vi) sixth, to remit to Buyer to pay in full any other outstanding obligation of Seller then due and payable to Buyer or its Affiliates under this Agreement;

(vii) seventh, all remaining Income shall be remitted to Seller.

(e) If a monetary or material non-monetary Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all Income received by the Depository in respect of the Purchased Mortgage Loan and the associated Hedging Transactions shall be applied by the Depository on the Business Day next following the Business Day on which such funds are deposited in the Cash Management Account as follows (provided that Buyer may change the order and manner of any such application from time to time in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion):

(i) first, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to the Price Differential that has accrued and is outstanding in respect of all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans as of such Remittance Date;

(ii) second, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to any and all fees, costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and enforcement costs, due and owing by Seller to Buyer (or any other Indemnified Party) under the Transaction Documents as of such Remittance Date;

(iii) third, to remit to Depository and Custodian an amount equal to the depository and custodial fees due and payable as of such Remittance Date;

(iv) fourth, to remit to Buyer an amount equal to the aggregate Repurchase Price of all Purchased Mortgage Loans (to be applied in reduction of the aggregate Repurchase Price in such amounts, order and manner as determined by Buyer, until such Repurchase Price has been reduced to zero (0)); and

(v) fifth, to remit to Buyer any Exit Fee, if applicable;

(vi) sixth, to remit to Buyer or its Affiliates to pay in full any other outstanding obligation of Seller to Buyer or its Affiliates; and

(vii) seventh, to remit to Seller the remainder.

(f) If the Wind Down Period shall have commenced, so long as no monetary or material non-monetary Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all Principal Payments received with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans or other collateral, without regard to their source, shall be applied by the Depository at the direction of Servicer on the related Remittance Date as follows:

(i) first, to Buyer, on account of the Repurchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loan until the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Loan has been reduced to zero;

(ii) second, to Buyer, on account of the Repurchase Price of all other Purchased Mortgage Loans until the Repurchase Price for all such other Purchased Mortgage Loans has been reduced to zero;

(iii) third, to Buyer, an amount equal to any other amounts due and payable to Buyer or its Affiliates under any Transaction Document to the extent such amounts have not otherwise been paid under Sections 5(d) or 5(e); and

(iv) fourth, to the Seller, any remainder.

(g) Buyer is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all amounts held by Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer and any other obligations at any time owing by Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer to or for the credit or the account of Seller against any of or all the obligations of Seller now or hereafter existing under this Agreement irrespective of whether or not Buyer shall have made any demand under this Agreement (and without prior notice to Seller), whereupon such obligations owing by Buyer or its Affiliates to Seller shall, to the extent (and only to the extent) of such set off actually made by Buyer, be discharged. The rights of Buyer under this Section 5(f) are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Buyer may have.

(h) At the end of each Collection Period and prior to the Remittance Date for such Collection Period, Seller shall provide (or shall cause Servicer to provide) to Buyer a statement and analysis of all Income for such period, indicating the Purchased Mortgage Loans to which each element of Income relates and the amounts constituting interest on each Purchased Mortgage Loan, Principal Payments on each Purchased Mortgage Loan with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan and other Income.

(i) The following provisions shall apply with respect to the Cash Management Account:

(i) Control. In order to provide Buyer with control over the Cash Management Account, Seller agrees that Depository shall comply with any and all orders, notices, requests and other instructions originated by Buyer directing disposition of the funds in the Cash Management Account (“Distribution Instructions”) without any further consent from Seller; provided, however, that Buyer agrees that Distribution Instructions shall be in compliance with this Agreement including clauses (d) through (f) of this Section 5.

(ii) Access to Cash Management Account. The Cash Management Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Buyer. Neither Seller, nor any other person or entity, acting through or under Seller, shall have any control over the use of, or any rights to withdraw any amount from, the Cash Management Account. Depository is hereby authorized and instructed to transfer all funds in the Deposit Account into designated accounts as Buyer may direct in writing to Depository.

6. PRECAUTIONARY SECURITY INTEREST

(a) Buyer and Seller intend that all Transactions hereunder be one or more sales or other absolute Conveyances to Buyer of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and not a loan or loans from Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loan. However to protect and preserve Buyer’s rights with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loan, including any Conveyance thereof pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Documents, in the event any such Transaction is deemed to be other than a sale or other absolute Conveyance, Seller hereby pledges all of its right, title, and interest in, to and under and grants a first priority lien on, and security interest in and right of set-off against, all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all Purchased Mortgage Loans, including, without limitation, the following property below and any and all interests of Seller therein, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created and wherever located (collectively, together with the Cash Management, the “Collateral”) to Buyer to secure the payment and performance of all amounts or obligations owing to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, each of the Transactions and the Transaction Documents (including the obligation of Seller to pay the Repurchase Price, or if the Transactions are recharacterized as loans, to repay such loans for the Repurchase Price):

(i) the Purchased Mortgage Loans, the Mortgage Loan Documents, the Mortgage Loan File, including all files, documents, instruments, surveys, certificates, correspondence, appraisals, computer programs, computer storage media, accounting records and other books and records relating thereto, all Servicing Rights, all “securities accounts” (as defined in Section 8-501 (a) of the UCC) to which any or all of the Purchased Mortgage Loan or any proceeds that are credited and all “securities entitlements” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC) therein;

(v) all “general intangibles” (including without limitation “payment intangibles”), “accounts,” “chattel paper,” “investment property,” “documents” and “instruments” as defined in the UCC relating to or constituting any and all of the foregoing;

(vi) all “supporting obligations” and “letter of credit rights” as defined in the UCC relating to or constituting any and all of the foregoing; and

(vii) all replacements, substitutions or distributions on or proceeds, payments, Income and profits of, tort claims, insurance claims and other rights to payments, and records (but excluding any financial models or other proprietary information) and files relating to any and all of any of the foregoing.

(b) Seller hereby pledges all of its right, title, and interest in, to and under and grants a first priority lien on, and security interest in and right of set-off against, all of its right, title and interest, in, to and under the Cash Management Account, to Buyer to secure the payment and performance of all amounts or obligations owing to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, each of the Transactions and the Transaction Documents (including the obligation of Seller to pay the Repurchase Price, or if the Transactions are recharacterized as loans, to repay such loans for the Repurchase Price).

(c) Buyer’s security interest in a Purchased Mortgage Loan, or the Collateral as a whole, shall terminate only upon (i) in the case of an individual Purchased Mortgage Loan, the repurchase thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) in the case of the Collateral as a whole, the repayment in full of all amounts payable to Buyer and termination of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement and the documents delivered in connection herewith and therewith. For purposes of the grant of the security interest pursuant to this Article 6, this

Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the New York Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”) and the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any other applicable jurisdiction. In furtherance of the foregoing, (a) Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall cause to be filed in such locations as may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfection and priority of the security interest granted hereby, UCC financing statements and continuation statements (collectively, the “Filings”), and shall forward copies of such Filings to Buyer upon completion thereof, (b) Seller shall from time to time take such further actions as may be reasonably requested by Buyer to maintain and continue the perfection and priority of the security interest granted hereby (including marking its records and files to evidence the interests granted to Buyer hereunder), it being agreed that Seller shall pay any and all fees required in connection therewith, and (c) Seller hereby authorizes Buyer, at Seller’s cost and expense, to prepare and file any and all Filings, which such Filings may include a collateral description of “all assets of the debtor” or a similarly generic collateral description. In addition, Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to make Filings, at the sole cost and expense of Seller, in such locations as Buyer may determine to be necessary or advisable to perfect and maintain priority of the security interest granted hereby.

(d) If any circumstance described in this Article 6 occurs, (a) Buyer shall have all of the rights and remedies provided to a secured party by Requirements of Law (including the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and the right to set off any mutual debt and claim) and under any other agreement between Buyer and Seller, (b) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall be entitled to set off the proceeds of the liquidation of the Purchased Mortgage Loans against all of the Facility Obligations, without prejudice to Buyer’s right to recover any deficiency, (d) the possession by Buyer or any of its agents, including Custodian, of the Mortgage Loan Documents, the Purchased Mortgage Loans and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents, securities or chattel paper shall be deemed to be possession by the secured party for purposes of perfecting such security interest under the UCC and Requirements of Law, and (e) notifications to Persons (other than Buyer) holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from Persons (other than Buyer) holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents of the secured party for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under the UCC and Requirements of Law. The assignment, pledge and grant of security interest contained herein shall be, and Seller hereby represents and warrants to Buyer that it is, a first priority perfected security interest. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) each Purchased Mortgage Loan secures the Facility Obligations with respect to all other Transactions and all other Purchased Mortgage Loans, including any Purchased Mortgage Loans that are junior in priority to the Purchased Mortgage Loan in question, and (y) if an Event of Default exists, no Purchased Mortgage Loans relating to a Purchased Mortgage Loans will be released from Buyer’s lien or transferred to Seller until the Facility Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full (unless required by the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Facility Obligations shall be full recourse to Seller.

(e) The grant of a security interest under this Article 6 shall not constitute or result in the creation or assumption by Buyer of any obligation of Seller or any other Person in connection with any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, whether or not Buyer exercises any right with respect thereto. Seller shall remain liable under the Purchased Mortgage Loans and Mortgage

Loan Documents to perform all of Seller’s duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if the Transaction Documents had not been executed. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon Buyer’s exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 14(iii) of this Agreement following an Event of Default, Buyer will be deemed to have simultaneously assumed all of Seller’s obligations under the Purchased Mortgage Loans.

(f) Seller agrees, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where the Purchased Mortgage Loan or any Mortgaged Property may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and Seller, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Purchased Mortgage Loans marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that Buyer or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Purchased Mortgage Loans as an entirety or in such parcels as Buyer or such court may determine.

With respect to all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans delivered by Seller to Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian), Seller shall execute an omnibus power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit V attached hereto irrevocably appointing Buyer its attorney-in-fact, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest, with full power, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to (i) complete and record Assignments of Mortgage and other recordable Mortgage Loan Documents delivered “in blank”, (ii) complete endorsement of Mortgage Note delivered “in blank”, (iii) modify any other documents described in this Section 7(c) to the extent necessary to make them acceptable for recording or filing in the appropriate governmental recording office and (iv) take such other steps as may be necessary or desirable to enforce Buyer’s rights against such Purchased Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgage Loan Files and the Servicing Records and to create a first priority perfected security interest in favor of Buyer, as secured party, therein.

The Mortgage Loan Files shall be maintained in accordance with the Custodial Agreement.

(iv) The parties recognize that it may not be possible to purchase or sell all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans on a particular Business Day or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for such Purchased Mortgage Loans may not be liquid. In view of the nature of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, the parties agree that liquidation of a Transaction or the Purchased Mortgage Loans does not require a public purchase or sale and that a good faith private purchase or sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.

(vii) Buyer may exercise any or all of the remedies available to Buyer immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time during the continuance thereof.

(viii) Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process. Seller also waives any defense Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, disposition of any or all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, or from any other election of remedies. Seller recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.

(ix) Intentionally Omitted.

(x) Buyer shall not be required to make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of its rights or remedies against, Seller, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the obligations of Seller hereunder or to pursue or exhaust any of its rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof. Buyer shall not be required to marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the obligations of Seller hereunder or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular order, and all of its rights hereunder or under any other document or instrument executed in connection herewith shall be cumulative. To the extent it may lawfully do so, Seller absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against Buyer, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Agreement, or otherwise.

(xi) Seller hereby appoints Buyer as attorney-in-fact of Seller for the purpose, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing or endorsing any instruments that Buyer may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

(xii) Buyer, by entering into the Transactions, shall not have, does not assume and shall have no obligation to make any advances, “future advances” or other additional advances of loan proceeds under any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, all of which obligations shall be retained by Seller and fully and timely performed by Seller.

Seller acknowledges that Buyer has performed due diligence reviews, and has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, or otherwise. Seller agrees that upon reasonable prior notice to Seller, Buyer or Buyer’s authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the Mortgage Loan Files, Servicing Records and any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Mortgage Loans in the possession or under the control of Seller, any other servicer or subservicer and/or the Custodian.

Buyer may underwrite such Purchased Mortgage Loans itself or engage a third party underwriter to perform such underwriting. Seller agrees to reasonably cooperate with Buyer and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting,

24. SERVICING

(a) Notwithstanding the purchase and sale of the Purchased Mortgage Loans hereby, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, Seller and Buyer shall cause the Purchased Mortgage Loans to be serviced for the benefit of Buyer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement and, if Buyer shall exercise its rights to pledge or hypothecate the Purchased Mortgage Loans prior to the Repurchase Date pursuant to Article 8, Buyer’s assigns. Notwithstanding the use of expressions such as “Repurchase Date”, “Repurchase Price”, “margin” and “substitution”, which are used to reflect terminology used in the market for transactions of the kind provided for in this Agreement, it is hereby expressly acknowledged that the Servicing Rights relating to each Mortgage Loan purchased by Buyer hereunder are sold, assigned, and transferred by Seller to Buyer along with such Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything to the contrary herein, Buyer hereby grants to Seller a revocable option (a “Revocable Option”) to direct Buyer with respect to the exercise of all voting and corporate rights with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan and to vote, take corporate actions, service and exercise any rights in connection with each Purchased Mortgage Loan including the effectuation of Permitted Purchased Mortgage Loan Modifications, if applicable. Seller agrees and acknowledges that Buyer may, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, terminate the aforementioned grant to Seller and grant, transfer, assign or sell the right to service each Purchased Mortgage Loan to another Person at such time and on such date as Buyer may determine in its sole discretion. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Buyer shall be entitled to exercise all voting and corporate rights with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans without regard to Seller’s instructions (including, but not limited to, if an Act of Insolvency shall occur with respect to Seller, to the extent Seller controls or is entitled to control selection of the special servicer, Buyer may transfer such special servicing to an entity satisfactory to Buyer). Seller shall provide Buyer with prompt notice of Seller’s effectuation of any Permitted Purchased Mortgage Loan Modification. The grant to Seller of the right to service the Purchased Mortgage Loans as aforesaid is at will and Buyer may terminate the grant at any time, with or without cause. The Revocable Option is deemed terminated at the end of each calendar month; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default exists, it will be automatically extended for an additional calendar month unless Seller and Servicer receive written notice from Buyer to the contrary. In the event Servicer is Seller or an Affiliate of Seller, all servicing accounts relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be held at U.S. Bank National Association. Pursuant to the Revocable Option and provided no Default or Event of Default exists, Seller shall, through the Servicing Agreement participate in all dealings with (i) the holder of the senior portion related to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, (ii) loan administration and routine lender approval requests and (iii) the Underlying Obligors with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything contained in this

Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall not without the express written consent of Buyer: (i) take any action that would constitute a Material Purchased Mortgage Loan Modification other than Permitted Purchased Mortgage Loan Modifications or; (ii) take any action to foreclose on or take title (or cause Buyer to take title) to any Mortgaged Property securing a Purchased Mortgage Loan and/or enforce any remedies with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan provided that the foregoing shall not restrict Seller from issuing “reservation of rights” letters or “pre-negotiation letters” with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, provided such “pre-negotiation letters” do not contain any (i) forbearance provisions or (ii) any provision that would otherwise constitute a Material Purchased Mortgage Loan Modification.

(b) Seller agrees that Buyer is the owner of all servicing records, including but not limited to any and all Servicing Agreements, files, documents, records, data bases, computer tapes, copies of computer tapes, proof of insurance coverage, insurance policies, appraisals, other closing documentation, payment history records, and any other records relating to or evidencing the servicing of Purchased Mortgage Loans (the “Servicing Records”) so long as the Purchased Mortgage Loans are subject to this Agreement. Seller grants Buyer a security interest in all servicing fees and rights relating to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and all Servicing Records to secure the obligation of Seller or its designee to service in conformity with this Section 24 and any other obligation of Seller to Buyer subject to the Servicing Agreement. Seller covenants to safeguard such Servicing Records and to deliver them promptly to Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian) at Buyer’s request.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Buyer may, in its sole discretion, (i) sell its right to the Purchased Mortgage Loans on a servicing released basis or (ii) terminate each Servicer or any sub-servicer of the Purchased Mortgage Loans with or without cause, in each case without payment of any termination fee. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Buyer shall have sole control over all decisions, approvals or determinations made with respect to the servicing and administration of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and the exercise of all rights and remedies with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and the related loan and securitization documents evidencing and securing the Purchased Mortgage Loans.

(d) Seller shall not employ sub-servicers to service the Purchased Mortgage Loans other than as set forth in the Servicing Agreement without the prior written approval of Buyer.

(e) The payment of servicing fees to Seller or any Affiliate of Seller shall be subordinate to payment of the Facility Obligations.

(f) Upon the failure of any Mortgagor or other Underlying Obligor under any Purchased Mortgage Loan to make any required payment of principal, interest or other amounts due under such Purchased Mortgage Loan, or otherwise to perform fully any material covenants or other obligations under any of the related loan documents, in either case within any applicable grace period, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer. Except as otherwise provided in written instructions delivered to Seller by Buyer, Seller shall not obtain or cause Buyer to obtain title to any Mortgaged Property or other collateral securing such Purchased Mortgage Loan as a result or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and shall not otherwise acquire possession of, or take other action with respect to, any Mortgaged Property or other collateral directly or indirectly securing

such Purchased Mortgage Loan, if, as a result of any such action, Buyer would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee in possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of, such Mortgaged Property or other collateral directly or indirectly securing such Purchased Mortgage Loan within the meaning of any federal, state or local law, rule, regulation or statute (including, without limitation, any Environmental Laws) or a “discharger or responsible party” thereunder. In the event that title to any of the Mortgaged Properties or other collateral securing such Purchased Mortgage Loan is acquired by Buyer or Persons designated by Buyer or by a third party at a foreclosure or trustee’s sale, the servicing rights of Seller with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan granted by Buyer hereunder shall terminate, unless Buyer shall have agreed or directed in writing that Seller shall continue to perform servicing with respect to any such Mortgaged Property or other collateral.

25. MISCELLANEOUS

(a) Time is of the essence under the Transaction Documents and all Transactions thereunder and all references to a time shall mean New York time in effect on the date of the action unless otherwise expressly stated in the Transaction Documents.

(b) All rights, remedies and powers of Buyer hereunder and in connection herewith are irrevocable and cumulative, and not alternative or exclusive, and shall be in addition to all other rights, remedies and powers of Buyer whether under law, equity or agreement. In addition to the rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement, Buyer shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.

Seller agrees to pay Buyer on demand all costs and expenses (including reasonable expenses for legal services of every kind) of any subsequent enforcement of any of the provisions hereof, or of the performance by Buyer of any obligations of Seller in respect of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, or any actual or attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection; compromise or settlement in respect of any of the Collateral and for the custody, care or preservation of the Collateral (including insurance costs) and defending or asserting rights and claims of Buyer in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise. In addition, Seller agrees to pay Buyer on demand all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable expenses for legal services) incurred in connection with the maintenance of the Cash Management Account and registering the Collateral in the name of Buyer or its nominee. Furthermore, Buyer shall have the right to require Seller to order or shall itself have the right to

order (in its discretion) an Appraisal of any Mortgaged Property securing a Purchased Mortgage Loan (i) no more than once in any twelve (12) month period at Seller’s expense, to determine whether such Purchased Mortgage Loan is an Impaired Asset, (ii) if Buyer determines that a Material Adverse Change has occurred, (iii) if Seller or Guarantor have ordered an appraisal of such Mortgaged Property that does not meet the defined term “Appraisal”, (iv) if an event of default has occurred under the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents for such Mortgaged Property, (v) an Event of Default hereunder has occurred, (vi) when the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents for such Purchased Mortgage Loan requires an appraisal to be ordered and (vii) for any Purchased Mortgage Loan remaining on the Facility during the First Extension Period and Second Extension Period, as applicable, but (1) only if the most recent Appraisal thereby is dated more than six (6) months prior to the commencement of the First Extension Period or Second Extension Period, as applicable or (2) the material assumptions contained in the most recent Appraisal have changed (each of the foregoing, an “Appraisal Trigger Event”) and, in all cases, Seller agrees to pay Buyer’s out-of-pocket costs and expenses for such Appraisal promptly upon demand; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Seller shall not be required to obtain or to pay Buyer’s costs or expenses for more than two (2) Appraisals in any twelve (12) month period with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, and any Appraisals in excess thereof shall be obtained at Buyer’s sole cost and expense. All such expenses of Seller shall be recourse obligations of Seller to Buyer under this Agreement.

(f) Each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or be invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

(g) Intentionally Omitted.

Each party represents to the other that it has received legal advice from counsel of its choice regarding the meaning and legal significance of this Agreement and that it is satisfied with its legal counsel and the advice received from it.

(j) Should any provision of this Agreement require judicial interpretation, it is agreed that a court interpreting or construing the same shall not apply a presumption that the terms hereof shall be more strictly construed against any Person by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the Person who itself or through its agent prepared the same, it being agreed that all parties have participated in the preparation of this Agreement.

(k) Any notice, acknowledgment, statement or certificate (including, without limitation, any Confirmation) given by Buyer to Seller shall be effective as, and shall be deemed to be, a notice, acknowledgment, statement or certificate given to Seller.

Any disbursements of funds to Seller provided for in Article 5 of this Agreement or otherwise in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents shall be deemed properly made to Seller if disbursed to Seller or its designee.

26. INTENT

(a) Buyer and Seller intend (a) for each Transaction to qualify for the safe harbor treatment provided by the Bankruptcy Code and for Buyer to be entitled to all of the rights, benefits and protections afforded to Persons under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to a “securities contract” as defined in Section 741(7) of the Bankruptcy Code and that payments under this Agreement are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments,” as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) for the grant of a security interest set forth in Section 6 to also be a “securities contract” as defined in Section 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (c) that Buyer (for so long as Buyer is a “financial institution,” “financial participant” or other entity listed in Section 555, 559 or 362(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code) shall be entitled to the “safe harbor” benefits and protections afforded under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to a “securities contract,” including (x) the rights, set forth in Article 14 and in Section 555, 559 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code, to liquidate, terminate and accelerate the Purchased Mortgage Loans and terminate this Agreement, and (y) the right to offset or net out as set forth in herein and in Section 362(b)(6) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(b) Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that Buyer’s right to liquidate, terminate and accelerate Purchased Mortgage Loans delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Article 14 and as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents is a contractual right to liquidate such Transactions as described in Section 555, 559 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(c) Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that if either Buyer or Seller is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

(d) Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract,” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, as amended (“FDICIA”), and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation,” respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution,” as that term is defined in FDICIA). Buyer and Seller expressly represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree that this Agreement constitutes a “master netting agreement,” as defined in Section 101(38A) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(e) The parties intend and acknowledge that this Agreement is (i) a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(47) of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741(7) of the Banktrupcty Code, and and (iii) indebtedness for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

27. CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

(a) Taxes.

(i) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

(A) Any and all payments by or on account of any Facility Obligation of Seller or Guarantor hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of Buyer) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by Buyer, Seller; or Guarantor, then Buyer, Seller, or Guarantor shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (v) below.

(B) If Seller, Guarantor or Buyer shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then: (1) Buyer shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined Buyer to be required based on any applicable Laws; (2) Buyer shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code; and (3) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by Seller or Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(C) If Seller, Guarantor or Buyer shall be required by any applicable Laws other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then: (1) Seller, Guarantor or Buyer, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon any applicable Laws; (2) Seller, Guarantor or Buyer, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws; and (3) to the extent that the withholding or

deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Seller or Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section (a)) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(ii) Payment of Other Taxes by Seller or Guarantor. Without limiting or duplicating the provisions of subsection (i) above, Seller or Guarantor shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Buyer, timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(iii) Tax Indemnifications.

Seller and Guarantor shall, and each does hereby, indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to Seller and Guarantor by Buyer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by Seller, Guarantor or Buyer, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by Seller, Guarantor or Buyer to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section, Seller or Guarantor shall deliver to Buyer or Buyer shall deliver to Seller or Guarantor, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Seller, Guarantor or Buyer, as the case may be.

(v) Status of Buyer; Tax Documentation.

(a) If Buyer, any Recipient or any Person that acquires the rights and obligations of Buyer under this Agreement is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Transaction Document, the Buyer or such Person shall deliver to Seller, Guarantor or Buyer, at the time or times reasonably requested by Seller, Guarantor or Buyer, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Seller, Guarantor or Buyer as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, Buyer or any Person that acquires the rights and obligations of Buyer under this Agreement, if reasonably requested by Seller, Guarantor or Buyer, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Seller, Guarantor or Buyer as will enable Seller, Guarantor or Buyer to

determine whether or not such Person is subject to backup withholding or other withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than any such documentation set forth in subsection (b) hereof) shall not be required if in the Buyer or such Person’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject Buyer or such Person to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Buyer or such Person.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Seller or Guarantor is a U.S. Person:

(A) any Person that acquires the rights and obligations of Buyer under this Agreement that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Seller, Guarantor and Buyer on or prior to the date on which such Person becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Seller, Guarantor or Buyer), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that Buyer is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Buyer shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Seller, Guarantor and Buyer (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Buyer becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Seller, Guarantor and Buyer), whichever of the following is applicable:

(a) in the case of a Foreign Buyer claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party: (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Transaction Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty; and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Transaction Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(b) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(c) in the case of a Foreign Buyer claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code; (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit XI to the effect that such Foreign Buyer is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Seller or Guarantor within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”); and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable); or

(d) to the extent a Foreign Buyer is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit XI-A or Exhibit XI-B, IRS Form W-9, or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Buyer is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Buyer are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Buyer may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit XI-C on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Buyer shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Seller, Guarantor and Buyer (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Buyer becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Seller, Guarantor and Buyer), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Seller, Guarantor and Buyer to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to any Person that acquires the rights and obligations of Buyer under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Person were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Person shall deliver to Seller, Guarantor and Buyer at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Seller, Guarantor or Buyer such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably

requested by Seller, Guarantor or Buyer as may be necessary for Seller, Guarantor and Buyer to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Person has complied with such Person’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Credit Agreement.

(c) Each Recipient agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification, provide such successor form, or promptly notify the Buyer and Seller in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(vi) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Seller or Guarantor, or with respect to which Seller or Guarantor has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify Seller of such refund and promptly pay to Seller or Guarantor, as applicable, an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Seller or Guarantor under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that Seller or Guarantor, upon the request of such Recipient, agree to repay the amount paid over to any such Seller or Guarantor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Recipient in the event such Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to Seller or Guarantor pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to Seller, Guarantor or any other Person.

(vii) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the assignment of rights by Buyer, the termination of the Facility and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Facility Obligations.

(b) Illegality. If Buyer determines that any Change in Law, or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for Buyer to effect Transactions as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, (a) the commitment of Buyer hereunder to enter into new Transactions and to continue Transactions as such, or to make any Subsequent Purchase or pay the Supplemental Purchase Price, shall forthwith be canceled, and (b) the outstanding Transactions shall, at Buyer’s discretion, be converted automatically to Alternative Rate Transactions, for which the Pricing Rate shall be the Alternative Rate, on the last day of the then current Pricing Rate Period or within such earlier period as may be required by law. If any such

conversion of a Transaction occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Pricing Rate Period with respect to such Transaction, Seller shall pay to Buyer such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to this Section 27(b) of this Agreement. Seller shall indemnify Buyer and hold Buyer harmless from any loss or expense (not to include any lost profit or opportunity) (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) which Buyer may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by Seller in terminating any Transaction after Seller has given a notice in accordance with Section 3(h) of a termination of a Transaction or (ii) default by Seller in selling Eligible Mortgage Loans after Seller has notified Buyer of a proposed Transaction and Buyer has agreed to purchase such Eligible Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. A certificate as to such costs, losses, damages and expenses, setting forth the calculations therefor shall be submitted promptly by Buyer to Seller and shall be conclusive and binding on Seller in the absence of manifest error, and Seller shall pay all such amounts to Buyer upon demand thereof; provided, however, that Buyer shall exercise its rights and remedies pursuant to this Section 27(b) in a manner similar to the manner in which Buyer exercises such remedies in similar agreements with similarly situated counterparties.

(c) Inability to Determine Rates. If, prior to the first day of any Pricing Rate Period with respect to any Transaction, Buyer determines that for any reason that: (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount for the Pricing Rate Period; (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the one-month LIBOR rate for such Pricing Rate Period; or (c) the one-month LIBOR rate for does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Buyer of making or maintaining Transactions or such Pricing Rate Period. Thereafter, the Pricing Rate with respect to such Transaction for such Pricing Rate Period, and for any subsequent Pricing Rate Period until notice from Buyer has been withdrawn, shall be determined based upon an alternate index selected by Buyer (the “Alternative Rate”), in its sole and absolute discretion, reasonably comparable to that of the one-month LIBOR rate, intended to generate a return substantially the same as that generated by one-month LIBOR rate.

(d) Increased Costs Generally. If there shall occur any adoption or implementation of, or change to, any Regulation, or interpretation or administration thereof, which shall have the effect of imposing on Buyer (or Buyer’s holding company) any increase or expansion of or any new: Tax (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes”, and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or reserve, capital adequacy, special deposits or similar requirements against credit extended by, assets of, or deposits with or for the account of Buyer or other conditions affecting the extensions of credit under this Agreement; then Seller or Guarantor shall pay to Buyer such additional amount as Buyer deems necessary to compensate Buyer for any increased cost to Buyer attributable to the extension(s) of credit under this Agreement and/or for any reduction in the rate of return on Buyer’s capital and/or Buyer’s revenue attributable to such extension(s) of credit. As used above, the term “Regulation” shall include any federal, state or international law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (including but not limited to the Xxxx Xxxxx Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and enactments, issuances or similar pronouncements by Buyer for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices or any

similar authority and any successor thereto) that applies to Buyer. Buyer determination of the additional amount(s) due under this paragraph shall be binding in the absence of manifest error, and such amount(s) shall be payable within 15 days of demand and, if recurring, as otherwise billed by Buyer; provided, however, that Buyer shall exercise its rights and remedies pursuant to this Section 27(d) in a manner similar to the manner in which Buyer exercises such remedies in similar agreements with similarly situated counterparties.

(e) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of Buyer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 27 shall not constitute a waiver of Buyer’s right to demand such compensation; except that Seller shall not be required to pay any amount for which a demand was not made within one year of the date such amount was known to Buyer to be payable hereunder (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the one(1) year period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof)..

EXHIBIT VI

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

REGARDING EACH INDIVIDUAL PURCHASED MORTGAGE LOAN

Whole Loan; Ownership of Purchased Mortgage Loans. Each Purchased Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and not a participation interest in a Purchased Mortgage Loan. At the time of the sale, transfer and assignment to Buyer, no Mortgage Note or Mortgage was subject to any assignment (other than assignments to the Seller), participation or pledge, and the Seller had good title to, and was the sole owner of, each Purchased Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, charges, pledges, encumbrances, participations, any other ownership interests on, in or to such Purchased Mortgage Loan other than any servicing rights appointment or similar agreement. Seller has full right and authority to sell, assign and transfer each Purchased Mortgage Loan, and subject to the Seller’s rights pursuant to this Agreement, the assignment to Buyer constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment of such Purchased Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, charges or security interests of any nature encumbering such Purchased Mortgage Loan.

Loan Document Status. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents(if a separate instrument), guaranty and other agreement executed by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor in connection with such Purchased Mortgage Loan is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor, guarantor or other obligor (subject to any non-recourse provisions contained in any of the foregoing agreements and any applicable state anti-deficiency, one-action or market value limit deficiency legislation), as applicable, and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforcement may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) that certain provisions in such Mortgage Loan Documents (including, without limitation, provisions requiring the payment of default interest, late fees or prepayment/yield maintenance fees, charges and/or premiums) are, or may be, further limited or rendered unenforceable by or under applicable law, but (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (i) above) such limitations or unenforceability will not render such Mortgage Loan Documents invalid as a whole or materially interfere with the mortgagee’s realization of the principal benefits and/or security provided thereby (clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “Standard Qualifications”).

Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentences, there is no valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right of rescission available to the related Mortgagor with respect to any of the related Mortgage Notes, Mortgages or other Mortgage Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any such valid offset, defense, counterclaim or right based on fraud by Seller in connection with the origination of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, that would deny the mortgagee the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan Documents.

Mortgage Provisions. The Mortgage Loan Documents for each Purchased Mortgage Loan contain provisions that render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, nonjudicial foreclosure subject to the limitations set forth in the Standard Qualifications.

Mortgage Status; Waivers and Modifications. Since origination and except prior to the Purchase Date by written instruments set forth in the related Mortgage Loan File or as otherwise permitted by this Agreement (a) the material terms of such Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Purchased Mortgage Loan guaranty, and related Mortgage Loan Documents have not been waived, impaired, modified, altered, satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any respect which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage; (b) no related Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the use or operation of the remaining portion of such Mortgaged Property; and (c) neither the related Mortgagor nor the related guarantor has been released from its material obligations under the Purchased Mortgage Loan.

Lien; Valid Assignment. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases and Rents from the Seller constitutes a legal, valid and binding assignment from the Seller. Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases and Rents is freely assignable without the consent of the related Mortgagor. Each related Mortgage is a legal, valid and enforceable first lien on the related Mortgagor’s fee or leasehold interest in the Mortgaged Property in the principal amount of such Purchased Mortgage Loan or allocated loan amount (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances (as defined below) and the exceptions set forth in paragraph (6) (each such exception, a “Title Exception”)), except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. Such Mortgaged Property (subject to and excepting Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions) as of origination was, and as of the Purchase Date, to the Seller’s knowledge, is free and clear of any recorded mechanics’ liens, recorded materialmen’s liens and other recorded encumbrances which are prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below), and, to the Seller’s knowledge and subject to the rights of tenants (as tenants only) (subject to and excepting Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions), no rights exist which under law could give rise to any such lien or encumbrance that would be prior to or equal with the lien of the related Mortgage, except those which are bonded over, escrowed for or insured against by a lender’s title insurance policy (as described below). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) financing statements is required in order to effect such perfection.

Permitted Liens; Title Insurance. Each Mortgaged Property securing a Purchased Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy with escrow instructions or a “marked up” commitment, in each case binding on the title insurer) (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Purchased Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage, which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property and condominium declarations; and (f) if the related Purchased Mortgage Loan is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with another Purchased Mortgage Loan (each a “Crossed Purchased Mortgage Loan”), the lien of the Mortgage for another Purchased Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted with such Crossed Purchased Mortgage Loan, provided that none of which items (a) through (f), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or current use of the Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the preceding sentence, none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Seller, nor to the Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy.

Junior Liens. It being understood that B notes secured by the same Mortgage as a Purchased Mortgage Loan are not subordinate mortgages or junior liens, except for any Crossed Purchased Mortgage Loan, there are, as of origination, and to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Purchase Date, no subordinate mortgages or junior liens securing the payment of money encumbering the related Mortgaged Property (other than Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions, taxes and assessments, mechanics and materialmens liens (which are the subject of the representation in paragraph (5) above), and equipment and other personal property financing). The Seller has no knowledge of any mezzanine debt secured directly by interests in the related Mortgagor.

Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits. There exists as part of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan File an Assignment of Leases and Rents(either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Permitted Encumbrances and the Title Exceptions, each related Assignment of Leases and Rents creates a valid first-priority collateral assignment of, or a valid first-priority lien or security interest in, rents and certain rights under the related lease or leases, subject only to a license granted to the

related Mortgagor to exercise certain rights and to perform certain obligations of the lessor under such lease or leases, including the right to operate the related leased property, except as the enforcement thereof may be limited by the Standard Qualifications. The related Mortgage or related Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits, subject to applicable law, provides that, upon an event of default under the Purchased Mortgage Loan, a receiver is permitted to be appointed for the collection of rents or for the related mortgagee to enter into possession to collect the rents or for rents to be paid directly to the mortgagee.

UCC Filings. If the related Mortgaged Property is operated as a hospitality property, the Seller has filed and/or recorded or caused to be filed and/or recorded (or, if not filed and/or recorded, have been submitted in proper form for filing and/or recording), UCC financing statements in the appropriate public filing and/or recording offices necessary at the time of the origination of the Purchased Mortgage Loan to perfect a valid security interest in all items of physical personal property reasonably necessary to operate such Mortgaged Property owned by such Mortgagor and located on the related Mortgaged Property (other than any non-material personal property, any personal property subject to a purchase money security interest, a sale and leaseback financing arrangement as permitted under the terms of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan documents or any other personal property leases applicable to such personal property), to the extent perfection may be effected pursuant to applicable law by recording or filing, as the case may be. Subject to the Standard Qualifications, each related Mortgage (or equivalent document) creates a valid and enforceable lien and security interest on the items of personalty described above. No representation is made as to the perfection of any security interest in rents or other personal property to the extent that possession or control of such items or actions other than the filing of UCC financing statements are required in order to effect such perfection.

10.	Condition of Property. Seller or the originator of the Purchased Mortgage Loan inspected or caused to be inspected each related Mortgaged Property within six months of origination of the Purchased Mortgage Loan and within twelve months of the Purchase Date.

An engineering report or property condition assessment was prepared in connection with the origination of each Purchased Mortgage Loan no more than twelve months prior to the Purchase Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, based solely upon due diligence customarily performed in connection with the origination of comparable mortgage loans, as of the Purchase Date, each related Mortgaged Property was free and clear of any material damage (other than (i) any damage or deficiency that is estimated to cost less than $50,000 to repair, (ii) any deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination and (iii) any damage fully covered by insurance) that would affect materially and adversely the use or value of such Mortgaged Property as security for the Purchased Mortgage Loan.

11.

Taxes and Assessments. All real estate taxes, governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges (including, without limitation, water and sewage charges), or installments thereof, that could be a lien on the related Mortgaged Property that would be of equal or superior priority to the lien of the Mortgage and that prior to the

Purchase Date have become delinquent in respect of each related Mortgaged Property have been paid, or an escrow of funds has been established in an amount sufficient to cover such payments and reasonably estimated interest and penalties, if any, thereon. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real estate taxes and governmental assessments and other outstanding governmental charges and installments thereof shall not be considered delinquent until the earlier of (a) the date on which interest and/or penalties would first be payable thereon and (b) the date on which enforcement action is entitled to be taken by the related taxing authority.

12.

Condemnation. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Purchase Date, there is no proceeding pending, and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the date of origination and as of the Purchase Date, there is no proceeding threatened, for the total or partial condemnation of such Mortgaged Property that would have a material adverse effect on the value, use or operation of the Mortgaged Property.

13.

Actions Concerning Purchased Mortgage Loan. As of the date of origination and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Purchase Date, there was no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation involving any Mortgagor, guarantor, or Mortgagor’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, an adverse outcome of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (a) such Mortgagor’s title to the Mortgaged Property, (b) the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage, (c) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Purchased Mortgage Loan, (d) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (e) the principal benefit of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage Loan Documents or (f) the current principal use of the Mortgaged Property.

14.

Escrow Deposits. All escrow deposits and payments required to be escrowed with lender pursuant to each Purchased Mortgage Loan are in the possession, or under the control, of the Seller or its servicer, and there are no deficiencies (subject to any applicable grace or cure periods) in connection therewith, and all such escrows and deposits (or the right thereto) that are required to be escrowed with lender under the related Purchased Mortgage Loan Documents are being conveyed by the Seller to Buyer or its servicer.

15.

No Holdbacks. The principal balance as of the Initial Purchase Date of the Purchased Mortgage Loan set forth on the Purchased Mortgage Loan Schedule has been fully disbursed as of the Initial Purchase Date and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder (except (i) in those cases where the full amount of the Purchased Mortgage Loan has been disbursed but a portion thereof is being held in escrow or reserve accounts pending the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to leasing, repairs or other matters with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or other considerations determined by Seller to merit such holdback and (ii) as is reflected on the Confirmation (as reflected in the difference between the Outstanding Principal Balance as of the Initial Purchase Date and the Maximum Advance Amount).

16.

Insurance. Each related Mortgaged Property is, and is required pursuant to the related Mortgage to be, insured by a property insurance policy providing coverage for loss in accordance with coverage found under a “special cause of loss form” or “all risk form” that includes replacement cost valuation issued by an insurer meeting the requirements of

the related Mortgage Loan Documents and having a claims-paying or financial strength rating of any one of the following: (i) at least “A-:VIII” from A.M. Best Company, (ii) at least “A3” (or the equivalent) from Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or (iii) at least “A-” from Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service (collectively the “Insurance Rating Requirements”), in an amount (subject to a customary deductible) not less than the lesser of (1) the original principal balance of the Purchased Mortgage Loan and (2) the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements, furniture, furnishings, fixtures and equipment owned by the Mortgagor and included in the Mortgaged Property (with no deduction for physical depreciation), but, in any event, not less than the amount necessary or containing such endorsements as are necessary to avoid the operation of any coinsurance provisions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property.

Each related Mortgaged Property is also covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Documents, by business interruption or rental loss insurance which (subject to a customary deductible) covers a period of not less than 12 months (or with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan on a single asset with a principal balance of $50 million or more, 18 months).

If any material part of the improvements, exclusive of a parking lot, located on a Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain insurance in the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program.

If the Mortgaged Property is located within 25 miles of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic coast of Florida, Georgia, South Carolina or North Carolina, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain coverage for windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms.

The Mortgaged Property is covered, and required to be covered pursuant to the related Mortgage Loan Documents, by a commercial general liability insurance policy issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements including coverage for property damage, contractual damage and personal injury (including bodily injury and death) in amounts as are generally required by the Seller for loans originated by the Seller lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property, and in any event not less than $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.

An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of each of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zones 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the structural and seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing either the scenario expected limit (“SEL”) or the probable maximum loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the SEL or PML, as applicable, was based on a 475-year return period, an exposure period of 50 years and a 10% probability of exceedance. If the resulting report concluded that the SEL or PML, as applicable, would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer rated at least “A:VIII” by A.M. Best Company or “A3” (or the equivalent) from Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or “A-” by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service in an amount not less than 100% of the SEL or PML, as applicable.

The Mortgage Loan Documents require insurance proceeds in respect of a property loss to be applied either (a) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses in excess of 5% of the then outstanding principal amount of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan, the lender (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (b) to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of such Purchased Mortgage Loan together with any accrued interest thereon.

All premiums on all insurance policies referred to in this section required to be paid as of the Purchase Date have been paid, and such insurance policies name the lender under the Purchased Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns as a loss payee under a mortgagee endorsement clause or, in the case of the general liability insurance policy, as named or additional insured. Each related Purchased Mortgage Loan obligates the related Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the lender to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to charge such Mortgagor for related premiums. All such insurance policies (other than commercial liability policies) require at least 10 days’ prior notice to the lender of termination or cancellation arising because of nonpayment of a premium and at least 30 days prior notice to the lender of termination or cancellation (or such lesser period, not less than 10 days, as may be required by applicable law) arising for any reason other than non-payment of a premium and no such notice has been received by Seller.

17.

Access; Utilities; Separate Tax Lots. Each Mortgaged Property (a) is located on or adjacent to a public road and has direct legal access to such road, or has access via an irrevocable easement or irrevocable right of way permitting ingress and egress to/from a public road, (b) is served by or has uninhibited access rights to public or private water and sewer (or well and septic) and all required utilities, all of which are appropriate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) constitutes one or more separate tax parcels which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property or is subject to an endorsement under the related Title Policy insuring the Mortgaged Property, or in certain cases, an application has been, or will be, made to the applicable governing authority for creation of separate tax lots, in which case the Purchased Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to escrow an amount sufficient to pay taxes for the existing tax parcel of which the Mortgaged Property is a part until the separate tax lots are created.

18.

No Encroachments. To Seller’s knowledge based solely on surveys obtained in connection with origination and the lender’s Title Policy (or, if such policy is not yet issued, a pro forma title policy, a preliminary title policy with escrow instructions or a “marked up” commitment) obtained in connection with the origination of each Purchased Mortgage Loan, all material improvements that were included for the purpose of determining the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of such Purchased Mortgage Loan are within the boundaries of the related Mortgaged Property, except encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect

the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy. No improvements on adjoining parcels encroach onto the related Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that do not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements were obtained under the Title Policy. No improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments the removal of which would not materially and adversely affect the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property or for which insurance or endorsements obtained with respect to the Title Policy.

19.

No Contingent Interest or Equity Participation. No Purchased Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, any other contingent interest feature or a negative amortization feature (except that an ARD Loan may provide for the accrual of the portion of interest in excess of the rate in effect prior to the Anticipated Repayment Date) or an equity participation by Seller.

20.	Intentionally Omitted.

21.

Compliance with Usury Laws. The interest rate (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charge, or prepayment premiums) of such Purchased Mortgage Loan complied as of the date of origination with, or was exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

22.

Authorized to do Business. To the extent required under applicable law, as of the Purchase Date or as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to transact and do business in the jurisdiction in which each related Mortgaged Property is located, or the failure to be so authorized does not materially and adversely affect the enforceability of such Purchased Mortgage Loan by the Buyer.

23.

Trustee under Deed of Trust. With respect to each Mortgage which is a deed of trust, as of the date of origination and, to the Seller’s knowledge, as of the Purchase Date, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, currently so serves and is named in the deed of trust or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law by the related mortgagee.

24.

Local Law Compliance. To the Seller’s knowledge, based upon any of a letter from any governmental authorities, a legal opinion, an architect’s letter, a zoning consultant’s report, an endorsement to the related Title Policy, or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, with respect to the improvements located on or forming part of each Mortgaged Property securing a Purchased Mortgage Loan as of the date of origination of such Purchased Mortgage Loan and as of the Purchase Date, there are no material violations of applicable zoning ordinances, building codes and land laws (collectively “Zoning Regulations”) other than those which (i) constitute a legal non-conforming use or structure, (ii) are insured by the Title Policy or a law and ordinance or other insurance policy or (iii) would not have a material adverse effect on the Purchased Mortgage Loan. The terms of the Purchased Mortgage Loan Documents require the Mortgagor to comply in all material respects with all applicable governmental regulations, zoning and building laws.

25.

Licenses and Permits. Each Mortgagor covenants in the Mortgage Loan Documents that it shall keep all material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations necessary for its operation of the Mortgaged Property in full force and effect, and to the Seller’s knowledge based upon a letter from any government authorities or other affirmative investigation of local law compliance consistent with the investigation conducted by the Seller for similar commercial and multifamily mortgage loans intended for securitization, all such material licenses, permits and applicable governmental authorizations are in effect. The Purchased Mortgage Loan requires the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

26.

Recourse Obligations. The Mortgage Loan Documents for each Purchased Mortgage Loan provide that such Purchased Mortgage Loan is non-recourse to the related parties thereto except that (a) the related Mortgagor and at least one individual or entity shall be fully liable for actual losses, liabilities, costs and damages arising from certain acts of the related Mortgagor and/or its principals specified in the related Mortgage Loan Documents, which acts generally include the following: (i) acts of fraud or intentional material misrepresentation, (ii) misapplication or misappropriation of rents, insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, (iii) intentional material physical waste of the Mortgaged Property, and (iv) any breach of the environmental covenants contained in the related Mortgage Loan Documents, and (b) the Purchased Mortgage Loan shall become full recourse to the related Mortgagor and at least one individual or entity, if the related Mortgagor files a voluntary petition under federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law.

27.	Intentionally Omitted.

28.

Financial Reporting and Rent Rolls. The Mortgage Loan Documents require the Mortgagor to provide the owner or holder of the Mortgage with quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) and annual operating statements, and quarterly (other than for single-tenant properties) rent rolls for properties that have leases contributing more than 5% of the in-place base rent and annual financial statements, which annual financial statements with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan with more than one Mortgagor are in the form of an annual combined balance sheet of the Mortgagor entities (and no other entities), together with the related combined statements of operations, members’ capital and cash flows, including a combining balance sheet and statement of income for the Mortgaged Properties on a combined basis.

29.

Acts of Terrorism Exclusion. With respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan over $20 million, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) do not specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007 (collectively referred to as “TRIA”), from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each other Purchased

Mortgage Loan, the related special-form all-risk insurance policy and business interruption policy (issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements) did not, as of the date of origination of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, and, to Seller’s knowledge, do not, as of the Purchase Date, specifically exclude Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, from coverage, or if such coverage is excluded, it is covered by a separate terrorism insurance policy. With respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Loan Documents do not expressly waive or prohibit the mortgagee from requiring coverage for Acts of Terrorism, as defined in TRIA, or damages related thereto except to the extent that any right to require such coverage may be limited by commercial availability on commercially reasonable terms; provided, however, that if TRIA or a similar or subsequent statute is not in effect, then, provided that terrorism insurance is commercially available, the Mortgagor under each Purchased Mortgage Loan is required to carry terrorism insurance, but in such event the Mortgagor shall not be required to spend on terrorism insurance coverage more than two times the amount of the insurance premium that is payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Mortgage Loan Documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance) at the time of the origination of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, and if the cost of terrorism insurance exceeds such amount, the Mortgagor is required to purchase the maximum amount of terrorism insurance available with funds equal to such amount.

30.

Due on Sale or Encumbrance. Subject to specific exceptions set forth below, each Purchased Mortgage Loan contains a “due on sale” or other such provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Purchased Mortgage Loan if, without the consent of the holder of the Mortgage (which consent, in some cases, may not be unreasonably withheld) and/or complying with the requirements of the related Mortgage Loan Documents (which provide for transfers without the consent of the lender which are customarily acceptable to the Seller lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, transfers of worn-out or obsolete furnishings, fixtures, or equipment promptly replaced with property of equivalent value and functionality and transfers by leases entered into in accordance with the Mortgage Loan Documents), (a) the related Mortgaged Property, or any equity interest of greater than 50% in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly pledged, transferred or sold, other than as related to (i) family and estate planning transfers or transfers upon death or legal incapacity, (ii) transfers to certain affiliates as defined in the related Mortgage Loan Documents, (iii) transfers of less than, or other than, a controlling interest in the related Mortgagor, (iv) transfers to another holder of direct or indirect equity in the Mortgagor, a specific Person designated in the related Mortgage Loan Documents or a Person satisfying specific criteria identified in the related Mortgage Loan Documents, such as a qualified equityholder, (v) transfers of stock or similar equity units in publicly traded companies or (vi) a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters set forth in the Mortgage Loan Documents, or (vii) by reason of any mezzanine debt that existed at the origination of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan, or future permitted mezzanine debt or (b) the related Mortgaged Property is encumbered with a subordinate lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property, other than (i) any Companion Loan or any subordinate debt that existed at origination and is

permitted under the related Mortgage Loan Documents, (ii) purchase money security interests, (iii) any Crossed Purchased Mortgage Loan or (iv) Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgage or other Mortgage Loan Documents provide that to the extent any Rating Agency fees are incurred in connection with the review of and consent to any transfer or encumbrance, the Mortgagor is responsible for such payment along with all other reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee relative to such transfer or encumbrance.

31.

Special-Purpose Entity. Each Purchased Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to be a Special-Purpose Entity for at least as long as the Purchased Mortgage Loan is outstanding. Both the Mortgage Loan Documents and the organizational documents of the Mortgagor with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan with a Purchase Date Principal balance in excess of $5 million provide that the Mortgagor is a Special-Purpose Entity, and each Purchased Mortgage Loan with a Purchase Date Principal balance of $20 million or more has a counsel’s opinion regarding non-consolidation of the Mortgagor. For this purpose, a “Special-Purpose Entity” shall mean an entity, other than an individual, whose organizational documents (or if the Purchased Mortgage Loan has a Purchase Date Principal balance equal to $5 million or less, its organizational documents or the related Mortgage Loan Documents) provide substantially to the effect that it was formed or organized solely for the purpose of owning and operating one or more of the Mortgaged Properties securing the Purchased Mortgage Loans and prohibit it from engaging in any business unrelated to such Mortgaged Property or Properties, and whose organizational documents further provide, or which entity represented in the related Mortgage Loan Documents, substantially to the effect that it does not have any assets other than those related to its interest in and operation of such Mortgaged Property or Properties, or any indebtedness other than as permitted by the related Mortgage(s) or the other related Mortgage Loan Documents, that it has its own books and records and accounts separate and apart from those of any other person (other than a Mortgagor for a Crossed Purchased Mortgage Loan), and that it holds itself out as a legal entity, separate and apart from any other person or entity.

32.	Intentionally Omitted.

33.	Intentionally Omitted.

34.

Ground Leases. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Ground Lease” shall mean a lease creating a leasehold estate in real property where the fee owner as the ground lessor conveys for a term or terms of years its entire interest in the land and buildings and other improvements, if any, comprising the premises demised under such lease to the ground lessee (who may, in certain circumstances, own the building and improvements on the land), subject to the reversionary interest of the ground lessor as fee owner and does not include industrial development agency (XXX) or similar leases for purposes of conferring a tax abatement or other benefit.

With respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan where the Purchased Mortgage Loan is secured by a leasehold estate under a Ground Lease in whole or in part, and the related Mortgage does not also encumber the related lessor’s fee interest in such Mortgaged Property, based upon the terms of the Ground Lease and any estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor in favor of Seller, its successors and assigns, Seller represents and warrants that:

(a)

The Ground Lease or a memorandum regarding such Ground Lease has been duly recorded or submitted for recordation in a form that is acceptable for recording in the applicable jurisdiction. The Ground Lease or an estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor permits the interest of the lessee to be encumbered by the related Mortgage and does not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage;

(b)

The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Mortgage Loan File (or in such Ground Lease) that the Ground Lease may not be amended or modified, or canceled or terminated by agreement of lessor and lessee, without the prior written consent of the lender, and no such consent has been granted by the Seller since the origination of the Purchased Mortgage Loan except as reflected in any written instruments which are included in the related Mortgage Loan File;

(c)

The Ground Lease has an original term (or an original term plus one or more optional renewal terms, which, under all circumstances, may be exercised, and will be enforceable, by either Mortgagor or the mortgagee) that extends not less than 20 years beyond the stated maturity of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan, or 10 years past the stated maturity if such Purchased Mortgage Loan fully amortizes by the stated maturity (or with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan that accrues on an actual 360 basis, substantially amortizes);

(d)

The Ground Lease either (i) is not subject to any liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, except for the related fee interest of the ground lessor and the Permitted Encumbrances, or (ii) is subject to a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement to which the mortgagee on the lessor’s fee interest in the Mortgaged Property is subject;

(e)

The Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the Mortgagee and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Purchased Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder, and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Purchased Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor;

(f)

The Seller has not received any written notice of material default under or notice of termination of such Ground Lease. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is no material default under such Ground Lease and no condition that, but for the passage of time or giving of notice, would result in a material default under the terms of such Ground Lease and to the Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect as of the Purchase Date;

(g)

The Ground Lease or ancillary agreement between the lessor and the lessee requires the lessor to give to the lender written notice of any default, and provides that no notice of default or termination is effective against the lender unless such notice is given to the lender;

(h)

A lender is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease through legal proceedings) to cure any default under the Ground Lease which is curable after the lender’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor may terminate the Ground Lease;

(i)

The Ground Lease does not impose any restrictions on subletting that would be viewed as commercially unreasonable by the Seller in connection with loans originated by the Seller lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property;

(j)

Under the terms of the Ground Lease, an estoppel or other agreement received from the ground lessor and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds or the portion of the condemnation award allocable to the ground lessee’s interest (other than (i) de minimis amounts for minor casualties or (ii) in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking as addressed in clause (k) below) will be applied either to the repair or to restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property with (so long as such proceeds are in excess of the threshold amount specified in the related Mortgage Loan Documents) the lender or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest;

(k)

In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of the Ground Lease, an estoppel or other agreement and the related Mortgage (taken together), any related insurance proceeds, or portion of the condemnation award allocable to ground lessee’s interest in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking of the related Mortgaged Property to the extent not applied to restoration, will be applied first to the payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest; and

(l)

Provided that the lender cures any defaults which are susceptible to being cured, the ground lessor has agreed to enter into a new lease with lender upon termination of the Ground Lease for any reason, including rejection of the Ground Lease in a bankruptcy proceeding.

35.	Servicing. The servicing and collection practices used by or on behalf of the Seller with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loan have been, in all respects in compliance with Accepted Servicing Practices.

36.

Origination and Underwriting. The origination practices of the Seller (or the related originator if the Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination, such Purchased Mortgage Loan and the origination thereof complied in all material respects with, or was exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to the origination of such Purchased Mortgage Loan; provided that such representation and warranty does not address or otherwise cover any matters with respect to federal, state or local law otherwise covered in this Annex of Representations and Warranties.

37.

No Material Default; Payment Record. No Purchased Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days delinquent, without giving effect to any grace or cure period, in making required payments since origination, and as of the date hereof, no Purchased Mortgage Loan is more than 30 days delinquent (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) in making required payments as of the Purchase Date. To the Seller’s knowledge, there is (a) no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Purchased Mortgage Loan, or (b) no event (other than payments due but not yet delinquent) which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, which default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), materially and adversely affects the value of the Purchased Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property, provided, however, that this representation and warranty does not cover any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration that specifically pertains to or arises out of an exception scheduled to any other representation and warranty made by the Seller in this Annex of Representations and Warranties. No person other than the holder of such Purchased Mortgage Loan may declare any event of default under the Purchased Mortgage Loan or accelerate any indebtedness under the Mortgage Loan Documents.

38.	Bankruptcy. As of the date of origination of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan and to the Seller’s knowledge as of the Purchase Date, no Mortgagor, guarantor or tenant occupying a single-tenant property is a debtor in state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

39.

Organization of Mortgagor. With respect to each Purchased Mortgage Loan, in reliance on certified copies of the organizational documents of the Mortgagor delivered by the Mortgagor in connection with the origination of such Purchased Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor is an entity organized under the laws of a state of the United States of America, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

40.

Environmental Conditions. A Phase I environmental site assessment (or update of a previous Phase I and or Phase II site assessment) and, with respect to certain Purchased Mortgage Loans, a Phase II environmental site assessment (collectively, an “ESA”) meeting ASTM requirements conducted by a reputable environmental consultant in connection with such Purchased Mortgage Loan within 12 months prior to its origination date (or an update of a previous ESA was prepared), and such ESA either (i) did not identify the existence of recognized environmental conditions (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor, hereinafter “Environmental Condition”) at the related Mortgaged Property or the need for further investigation with respect to any Environmental Condition that was identified, or (ii) if the existence of an Environmental Condition or need for further investigation was indicated in any such ESA, then at least one of the following statements is true: (A) an amount reasonably estimated by a

reputable environmental consultant to be sufficient to cover the estimated cost to cure any material noncompliance with applicable environmental laws or the Environmental Condition has been escrowed by the related Mortgagor and is held or controlled by the related lender; (B) if the only Environmental Condition relates to the presence of asbestos-containing materials, radon in indoor air, lead based paint or lead in drinking water, and the only recommended action in the ESA is the institution of such a plan, an operations or maintenance plan has been required to be instituted by the related Mortgagor that can reasonably be expected to mitigate the identified risk; (C) the Environmental Condition identified in the related environmental report was remediated or abated in all material respects prior to the date hereof, and, if and as appropriate, a no further action or closure letter was obtained from the applicable governmental regulatory authority (or the Environmental Condition affecting the related Mortgaged Property was otherwise listed by such governmental authority as “closed” or a reputable environmental consultant has concluded that no further action is required); (D) a secured creditor environmental policy or a pollution legal liability insurance policy that covers liability for the Environmental Condition was obtained from an insurer rated no less than A- (or the equivalent) by Xxxxx’x, S&P and/or Fitch; (E) a party not related to the Mortgagor was identified as the responsible party for such Environmental Condition and such responsible party has financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation; or (F) a party related to the Mortgagor having financial resources reasonably estimated to be adequate to address the situation is required to take action. To Seller’s knowledge, except as set forth in the ESA, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

41.

Appraisal. The Mortgage Loan File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property with an appraisal date within 6 months of the Purchased Mortgage Loan origination date, and within 12 months of the Purchase Date. The appraisal is signed by an appraiser who is either a Member of the Appraisal Institute (“MAI”) and/or has been licensed and certified to prepare appraisals in the state where the Mortgaged Property is located. Each appraiser has represented in such appraisal or in a supplemental letter that the appraisal satisfies the requirements of the “Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice” as adopted by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation and has certified that such appraiser had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor or in any loan made on the security thereof, and its compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Purchased Mortgage Loan.

42.

Purchased Mortgage Loan Schedule. The information pertaining to each Purchased Mortgage Loan which is set forth in the Purchased Mortgage Loan Schedule to this Agreement is true and correct in all material respects as of the Purchase Date and contains all information required by this Agreement to be contained therein.

43.	Cross-Collateralization. No Purchased Mortgage Loan is cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with any other Purchased Mortgage Loan or other mortgage loan.

44.

Advance of Funds by the Seller. After origination, no advance of funds has been made by Seller to the related Mortgagor other than in accordance with the Mortgage Loan Documents, and, to Seller’s knowledge, no funds have been received from any person other than the related Mortgagor or an affiliate for, or on account of, payments due on the Purchased Mortgage Loan (other than as contemplated by the Mortgage Loan Documents, such as, by way of example and not in limitation of the foregoing, amounts paid by the tenant(s) into a lender-controlled lockbox if required or contemplated under the related lease or Mortgage Loan Documents). Neither Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contribution to any Mortgagor under a Purchased Mortgage Loan, other than contributions made on or prior to the date hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, advances of loan proceeds shall not constitute capital contributions for purposes of this paragraph.

45.

Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Seller has complied in all material respects with all applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001 with respect to the origination of the Purchased Mortgage Loan, the failure to comply with which would have a material adverse effect on the Purchased Mortgage Loan.
