(c) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and subject to the

Section 3.22. Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing agreement, the Sub-Servicer
shall remain directly obligated and primarily liable to the Master Servicer for
the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the

(ii) any termination or replacement, or consent to the termination
or replacement, of a property manager with respect to any Mortgaged
Property, or any termination or change, or consent to the termination or
change, of the franchise affiliation with respect to any hotel property
that in whole or in part constitutes any Mortgaged Property;
(iii) granting any consent to any request by a Mortgagor for
approval to incur additional indebtedness or to amend or modify its
organizational documents (other than, in each case, where the action is
not conditioned on obtaining the consent of the lender);
(iv) any determination with respect to a Mortgage Loan as to whether
a default has occurred under the related Loan Documents by reason of any
failure on the part of the related Mortgagor to maintain (A) any insurance
required under the related Loan Documents, (B) an all-risk casualty
insurance policy or an extended coverage insurance policy (with special
form coverage) that does not contain any exclusion for (or a separate

resulting from a terrorist or similar act, or (C) insurance coverage for
property damage resulting from a terrorist or similar act upon terms no
less favorable than those in place as of the Closing Date; or
(v) any grant or withholding of consent to, or the performance of,

(b) Regardless of whether the consent or approval of the Master Servicer
is required pursuant to this Agreement, the Sub-Servicer shall take any
reasonable action that is directed by the Master Servicer and relates to the
Sub-Servicer's obligations under this Agreement and does not result in a
material increase in the Sub-Servicer's expenses; provided, however, that the
Sub-Servicer shall not be obligated to take any such action to the extent that
the Sub-Servicer determines in its reasonable discretion that such action may
cause a violation of (i) applicable laws, court orders or restrictive covenants
with respect to any Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged Property, (ii) any term or
provision of a Mortgage Loan or (iii) Accepted Sub-Servicing Practices.
(c) In addition, and without in anyway limiting Section 2.03(a), in
connection with any whole or partial Balloon Payments or Principal Prepayments
or any Prepayment Charges, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or
Condemnation Proceeds, as soon as reasonably possible, and in the case of any
Principal Prepayment in no event later than five (5) Business Days prior to the
date of the applicable Principal Prepayment, the Sub-Servicer shall deliver to
the Master Servicer for its review a statement showing all the amounts,
including the Sub-Servicer's calculation thereof, to be received or paid in
connection therewith.
(d) Further, in connection with any Principal Prepayment of a Mortgage
Loan that gives rise to a Prepayment Interest Shortfall, on the Sub-Servicer
Remittance Date related to the Collection Period for which such Principal
Prepayment is effective, the Sub-Servicer shall remit to the Master Servicer,
pursuant to wiring instructions from the Master Servicer, a compensating
interest payment in an amount equal to the Compensating Interest Payment
required to be paid by the Master Servicer under PSA Section 3.19(e) in
connection with such Principal Prepayment, except that the Sub-Servicer's
compensating interest payment shall be calculated in a manner that (i) does not
include amounts received on mortgage loans other than the Mortgage Loans and
(ii) does not include (unless the Prepayment Interest Shortfall occurs as a
result of the Sub-Servicer's allowing the related Mortgagor to deviate from the
terms of the related loan documents regarding principal prepayments) servicing
fees in excess of the portion of the Sub-Servicer's Sub-Servicing Fees for the
related Collection Period that is, in the case of each and every Mortgage Loan
and REO Loan for which such Master Servicing Fees are being paid in such
Collection Period, calculated at 0.01% per annum. If such Compensating Interest
Payment is not so remitted to the Master Servicer, then the Sub-Servicer shall
also remit to the Master Servicer interest on such Compensating Interest Payment
at the Reimbursement Rate from and including such Sub-Servicer Remittance Date.
Any payment by the Sub-Servicer, or acceptance by the Master Servicer, of such
Sub-Servicer Compensating Interest Payment and any interest thereon shall not be
construed to constitute a waiver of an Event of Default.

performance, immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the
Sub-Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the
proceeds thereof, subject to Section 6.02, without the Master Servicer incurring
any penalty or fee of any kind whatsoever in connection therewith. Except as
otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this
Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy
shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy and no delay or omission
to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall
be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default. On or after the receipt by the
Sub-Servicer of such written notice of termination from the Master Servicer, all
authority and power of the Sub-Servicer in this Agreement, whether with respect
to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Master
Servicer, and the Sub-Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Master Servicer in

prompt written notice thereof to the Master Servicer.
(d) The Master Servicer may waive in writing any default by the
Sub-Servicer in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and its
consequences. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease

been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend
to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except
to the extent expressly so waived.
(e) If the Sub-Servicer fails to remit to the Master Servicer when due any
amount required to be remitted under this Agreement (whether or not such failure
constitutes an Event of Default), then interest shall accrue on the amount that
was required to be remitted, and the Sub-Servicer shall promptly pay such
interest to the Master Servicer, at a per annum rate equal to the Reimbursement
Rate from and including the date when such remittance was required to be made to
but excluding the day when such remittance is actually made.

Servicer and the Sub-Servicer, if an Intercreditor Agreement contemplates
a successor servicing agreement, the Sub-Servicer shall be the party
entitled to negotiate for and be the servicer under such successor
servicing agreement).
(b) If the Master Servicer's responsibilities and duties as Master
Servicer under the PSA have been assumed by the Trustee, the Trustee may,
without act or deed on the part of the Trustee, succeed to all of the rights
and, except to the extent they arose prior to the date of such succession,
obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement as provided in PSA
Section 3.01, and the Sub-Servicer shall be bound to the Trustee under all of
the terms, covenants and conditions of this Agreement with the same force and
effect as if the Trustee was originally the Master Servicer under this
Agreement; and the Sub-Servicer does hereby attorn to the Trustee, as the Master
Servicer under this Agreement, said attornment to be effective and
self-operative without the execution of any further instruments on the part of
any of the parties hereto immediately upon the Trustee succeeding to the
interest of the Master Servicer under this Agreement. The Sub-Servicer agrees,
however, upon written demand by the Trustee to promptly execute and deliver to
the Trustee an instrument in confirmation of the foregoing provisions,
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, in which the Sub-Servicer shall
acknowledge such attornment and shall confirm to the Trustee its agreement to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement. References to the Trustee under this
Section 6.03 shall include any designee of the Trustee or any successor Master
Servicer under the PSA.
(c) Termination pursuant to this Section or as otherwise provided in this
Agreement shall be without prejudice to any rights of the Master Servicer or the
Sub-Servicer which may have accrued through the date of termination under this
Agreement. In connection with any such termination, the Sub-Servicer shall: (i)
within one (1) Business Day after the Sub-Servicer's receipt of the notice of
termination, remit all funds in the related Accounts to the Master Servicer or
such other Person designated by the Master Servicer, net of accrued
Sub-Servicing Fees and Additional Sub-Servicing Compensation through the
termination date that are due and payable to the Sub-Servicer; (ii) promptly
(and in no event later than five (5) Business Days after the Sub-Servicer's
receipt of the notice of termination) deliver all related Sub-Servicing Files to
the Master Servicer or its designee; and (iii) fully cooperate with the Master
Servicer to effectuate an orderly transition of the servicing of the related
Mortgage Loans. All rights of the Sub-Servicer relating to the payment of its
Sub-Servicing Fees and Additional Sub-Servicing Compensation and all liabilities
of the Sub-Servicer, which in any such case accrued under the terms of this
Agreement on or before the date of such termination, shall continue in full
force and effect until payment or other satisfaction in accordance with this
Agreement.
(d) If the Master Servicer is terminated under Article VII of the PSA and
an Event of Default on the part of the Sub-Servicer has not occurred under this
Agreement, the Trustee (or a successor master servicer appointed by it) under
the PSA shall assume and be bound by the terminated Servicer's obligations and
responsibilities under this Agreement.
