Each Collateral Schedule and Exception Report shall be superseded by a subsequently issued Collateral Schedule and Exception Report. The delivery of each Collateral Schedule and Exception Report to the Lender shall be the Custodian's representation that, other than the Exceptions listed as part of the Exception Report: (i) all documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.1(d) of this Agreement have been delivered and are in the possession of the Custodian as part of the Collateral File for such Eligible Loan, (ii) all such documents have been reviewed by the Custodian in accordance with the Review Procedures and appear on their face to be regular and to relate to such Eligible Loan, (iii) the amount of the Promissory Note (plus, in the case of an Eligible Loan that is an A-note in an "A/B" structure, the related "B-note" or "B-notes") is the same as the amount specified on the related Mortgage, and based upon a review of the Promissory Note, as set forth in the Collateral Schedule delivered by the Borrower to the Custodian is correct, provided the Custodian shall not be required to perform any calculations to verify any item listed on Exhibit 1 or the Collateral Schedule and (iv) each Eligible Loan identified on such Collateral Schedule and Exception Report is being held by the Custodian as the bailee for the benefit of the Lender and/or its designees pursuant to this Agreement.

Subject to the following sentence, the Borrower and the Lender hereby give the Custodian notice that from and after the Funding Date, the Lender shall have a security interest in each Eligible Loan identified on a Collateral Schedule and Exception Report (notwithstanding the fact that in the case of Table-Funded Eligible Loans the related Collateral Schedule and Exception Reports are not required to be delivered until subsequent to the Funding Date, as contemplated hereby) until such time that the Custodian receives written notice from the Lender that the Lender no longer has a security interest in such Eligible Loan. With respect to "Non-Table Funded" Eligible Loans, in the event that the Lender does not make a Loan to the Borrower prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on

such Funding Date, upon notice thereof from the Borrower, acknowledged by the Lender, the Custodian shall hold or release to the Borrower, pursuant to the Borrower's written instructions, the applicable Eligible Loan. In the event that the Lender shall agree, in its sole option, to make a Loan to the Borrower with respect to some, but not all, of the Eligible Loans listed on a Collateral Schedule, such notice from the Borrower (and acknowledged by the Lender pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence) shall indicate those Eligible Loans that will be subject to such Loans.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in the event that the Collateral Schedule and Exception Report attached to the Trust Receipt is different from the most recently delivered Collateral Schedule and Exception Report, then the most recently delivered Collateral Schedule and Exception Report shall control and be binding upon the parties hereto.

Section 2.3.    Obligations of the Custodian.

        (a)   The Custodian shall maintain continuous custody of all items constituting the Collateral Files in secure facilities, in accordance with customary standards for such custody and shall reflect in its records the interest of the Lender therein.

        (b)   In the event that (i) the Lender, the Borrower or the Custodian shall be served by a third party with any type of levy, attachment, writ or court order with respect to any Collateral File or a document included within a Collateral File or (ii) a third party shall institute any court proceeding by which any Collateral File or a document included within a Collateral File shall be required to be delivered otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the party receiving such service shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the other parties to this Agreement copies of all court papers, orders, documents and other materials concerning such proceedings. The Custodian shall, to the extent permitted by law and by any court order, continue to hold and maintain all the Collateral Files that are the subject of such proceedings pending a final, nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction permitting or directing disposition thereof. Upon final determination of such court, and if permitted by such determination, the Custodian shall dispose of such Collateral File or any document included within such Collateral File as directed in writing by the Lender which shall give a direction consistent with such court determination. Expenses of the Custodian incurred as a result of such proceedings shall be borne by the Borrower.

        (c)   The Lender hereby acknowledges that the Custodian shall not be responsible for the validity or perfection of the Lender's security interest in the Collateral hereunder, other than the Custodian's obligation to take possession of Collateral as set forth in Section 2.1(a) hereof.

Section 2.4.    Release of Collateral Files.

        (a)   From time to time until the Custodian is otherwise notified in writing by an Authorized Representative of the Lender, which notice shall be given by the Lender only following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Custodian is hereby authorized upon receipt of written request of the Borrower and written authorization of the Lender, to release documentation

relating to Eligible Loans in the possession of the Custodian to the Borrower or its designee for the purpose of servicing an Eligible Loan or correcting documentary deficiencies relating thereto against a Request for Release and Receipt executed by the Borrower in the form of Exhibit 5-A hereto. Such Request for Release must also be executed by the Lender in the event that more than 5 Collateral Files would be released following such request. The Custodian shall promptly notify the Lender that it has released documentation relating to any Collateral File to the Borrower or its designee. The Borrower or its designee shall return to the Custodian each document previously released from the Custodian's Collateral File within 14 calendar days of receipt thereof. The Borrower hereby further represents and warrants to the Lender that any such request by the Borrower for release of Collateral shall be solely for the purposes of correcting clerical or other documentation problems, as set forth in the Request for Release and Receipt.

        (b)   From time to time until the Custodian is otherwise notified by the Lender, which notice shall be given by the Lender only following the occurrence of an Event of Default and as appropriate for the foreclosure or servicing or payoff of any of the Eligible Loans, the Custodian shall, upon receipt of an e-mail from the Lender to Custodian's E-mail Address attaching an approved Request for Release of Documents and Receipt in the form of Exhibit 5-B hereto from the Borrower (which form shall be sent by the Borrower to the Lender's E-mail Address), release to the Borrower or its designee the related Custodian's Collateral File or the documents set forth in such request and receipt. The Custodian shall promptly notify the Lender and the Borrower via the Lender's E-mail Address and the Borrower's E-mail Address, respectively, that it has released any Collateral File to the Borrower or its designee. The Borrower or its designee shall hold each Collateral File delivered to it pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) as bailee for the Lender. The Borrower or its designee shall, except with respect to an Eligible Loan being paid off, return to the Custodian each document previously released from the Custodian's Collateral File within 14 calendar days of receipt thereof. The Borrower hereby further represents and warrants to the Lender that any such request by the Borrower or its designee for release of Collateral shall be solely for the purposes of foreclosure or servicing of any of the Eligible Loans or as otherwise noted in the Request for Release of Documents and Receipt delivered pursuant to this Section 2.4(b).

        (c)   From time to time until the Custodian is otherwise notified by the Lender, which notice shall be given by the Lender only following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Custodian shall, upon receipt of an e-mail from the Lender to Custodian's E-mail Address attaching an approved Request for Release in the form of Exhibit 5-C hereto from the Borrower (which form shall be sent by the Borrower to the Lender via the Lender's E-mail Address), release the Collateral Files listed on such request to a third-party purchaser for the purpose of resale thereof. The third-party purchaser shall return to the Custodian each document previously released from the Custodian's Collateral File within 14 calendar days of receipt thereof to the extent such sale has not closed within such period and the Proceeds thereof, to the extent of the Loan made by the Lender in respect of such Collateral, have not been credited to the Lender. On such Request for Release, the Borrower shall indicate the Eligible Loans to be sold, the amount of sale Proceeds anticipated to be received, the date of such anticipated sale, the name and address of the third-party purchaser, and the preferred method of delivery.

        (d)   Any transmittal of documentation for Eligible Loans in the possession of the Custodian in connection with the sale thereof to a third-party purchaser will be under cover of a transmittal letter substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 9 duly completed by the Custodian and executed by the Custodian. Promptly upon the remittance by such third-party purchaser of the full purchase price of the Eligible Loans, the Lender shall notify the Custodian thereof.

10

        (e)   From time to time until the Custodian is otherwise notified by the Lender, which notice shall be given by the Lender only following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Custodian shall, upon receipt of an e-mail from the Lender to Custodian's E-mail Address attaching an approved Request for Release in the form of Exhibit 5-D hereto from the Borrower (which form shall be sent by the Borrower to the Lender via the Lender's E-mail Address), release to the Borrower the Collateral Files listed on such request as Eligible Loans that have ceased to be Eligible Loans.

        (f)    Following notification by the Lender (which may be by facsimile or by email to Custodian's E-mail Address) to the Custodian that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Custodian shall not release, or incur any liability to the Borrower or any other Person for refusing to release, any item of Collateral to the Borrower or any other Person without the express prior written consent and at the direction of the Lender.

        (g)   The Custodian shall at all times monitor any release of Collateral under this Section 2.4, and shall track the period of time that has elapsed for any such release of Collateral.

Section 2.5.    Examination of Collateral Files.

        Upon reasonable prior written notice to the Custodian the Borrower and/or, the Lender or any agent of the Lender may, during normal business hours on any Business Day, inspect or examine the Mortgage Files in the possession of or under the control of the Custodian. The Borrower shall pay all fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Custodian in connection with any such inspection or examination.

Section 2.6.    Copies of Collateral Documents.

        Upon request of the Borrower with respect to all or a portion of the Eligible Loan, and at the Borrower's cost and expense, the Custodian shall provide such party with copies of requested documents that are part of the Collateral File relating to one or more of the Eligible Loans. Processing volumes and time frames of such requests shall be determined based on the number of documents or Collateral Files for which copies are requested by the Borrower. In no event shall the Custodian be obligated to furnish copies of any Collateral File to any Person unless instructed in writing to do so by, and at the expense of, the Borrower.

Section 2.7.    Insurance of Custodian.

        At its own expense, the Custodian shall maintain at all times during the existence of this Agreement and keep in full force and effect, fidelity insurance, theft of documents insurance, forgery insurance and errors and omissions insurance. All such insurance shall be in amounts, with standard coverage and subject to deductibles, as is customary for insurance typically maintained by banks which act as custodian of collateral substantially similar to the Eligible Loans. Upon written request, the Borrower or the Lender shall be entitled to receive from the Custodian a certification executed by an Authorized Representative of the Custodian stating the name of the insurer and a statement that such insurance is in full force and effect.

Section 2.8.    Statements.

        Upon written request by the Lender or the Borrower, the Custodian shall provide the requesting party with a list of all the Eligible Loans for which the Custodian holds a Collateral File pursuant to this Agreement. Such list may be in the form of a copy of a Collateral Schedule and Exception Report with manual deletions to specifically denote any Eligible Loan added, paid off, liquidated, released or redelivered since the Delivery Date.

CONCERNING THE CUSTODIAN

Section 3.1.    Fees and Expenses of Custodian.

        The Borrower hereby agrees to pay the Custodian the fees in the amount specified in Exhibit 12 attached hereto and otherwise to reimburse the Custodian in the full amount of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Custodian, including, without limitation, shipping and courier costs, in connection with the performance of its duties under this Agreement. The fee schedule attached as Exhibit 12 hereto shall apply to the Custodian's services until the date of expiration stated on the fee schedule, unless the parties hereto mutually agree upon a different schedule. After the date of expiration, the then existing fee schedule shall apply until the Custodian provides the Borrower with a new fee schedule containing a new date of expiration, which shall replace Exhibit 12 hereto.

        All of the Custodian's fees and expenses shall be due upon receipt of an invoice from the Custodian as stated in Exhibit 12 attached hereto. The Borrower shall notify the Custodian in writing of any disputed fees or expenses within 30 days of the invoice date, specifying the subject matter of the dispute. The obligations of the Borrower to pay the Custodian for such fees and expenses in connection with services provided by the Custodian hereunder shall survive the termination or transfer of this Agreement, and the resignation or removal of the Custodian.

Section 3.2.    Removal or Resignation of Custodian.

        (a)   The Custodian may at any time resign and terminate its obligations under this Agreement upon at least 60 days' prior written notice to the Borrower and the Lender, provided, however, that such resignation and termination shall not be effective until the appointment of a Successor Custodian and the assumption by such Successor Custodian of the obligations of the Custodian hereunder in accordance with the provisions herein. Promptly after receipt of notice of the Custodian's resignation, the Borrower shall appoint, by written instrument, a successor custodian, subject to written approval by the Lender which approval shall be in the sole, good faith discretion of the Lender (each successor custodian, a "Successor Custodian"). One original counterpart of such instrument of appointment shall be delivered to each of the Lender, the resigning Custodian and the Successor Custodian.

        (b)   The Borrower, with the consent of the Lender, upon at least 60 days' prior written notice to the Custodian and the Lender, may remove and discharge the Custodian (or any Successor Custodian thereafter appointed) from the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. Promptly after the giving of notice of removal of the Custodian, the Borrower shall appoint, by written instrument, a Successor Custodian, which appointment shall require the approval of the Lender, which approval shall be in the sole discretion of the Lender. One original counterpart of such instrument of appointment shall be delivered to each of the Lender, the Borrower, the Custodian and the Successor Custodian.

        (c)   In the event of any such resignation or removal, the Custodian shall promptly transfer to the Successor Custodian, as directed in writing, all the Collateral Files being administered under this Agreement and, if the endorsements on the Promissory Notes, and the Assignments of Mortgage and/or collateral assignments of the Eligible Loan, as applicable, have been completed in the name of the Custodian, assign the Mortgages and endorse without recourse the Promissory Notes, to the Successor Custodian or as otherwise directed by the Lender and, in the case of an Eligible Loan that is an "A-note" in an "A/B" structure, enter into such endorsements or assignments of Collateral Documents as the Lender shall reasonably request to effectuate the transfer of such Collateral to such Successor Custodian. The cost of the shipment of Collateral Files arising out of the resignation of the Custodian shall be at the expense of the Borrower; and any cost of shipment arising out of the removal of the Custodian by the Lender or the Borrower

12

shall be at the expense of the party requesting such removal. The Borrower shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of the Successor Custodian and the fees and expenses for endorsing the Promissory Notes and assigning the Mortgages, and entering into such other endorsements and assignments, to the Successor Custodian if required pursuant to this paragraph.

        (d)   In the event that no Successor Custodian shall have been appointed within the 60 day notice period described in Sections 3.2(a) and (b) hereof, the Custodian may either (i) with the consent of Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) deliver the Collateral Files to the Lender or its designee upon surrender of all outstanding Trust Receipts or (ii) in the event that the Lender or its designee fails to accept the Collateral Files, petition any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a Successor Custodian. The Custodian's costs and expense of such petition shall be paid by the Borrower.

Section 3.3.    Merger or Consolidation of the Custodian.

        Any entity (a) into which the Custodian may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or (b) that results from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Custodian shall be a party, or (c) that purchases all or substantially all of the custodial business of the Custodian, or (d) that succeeds to the custodial business of the Custodian, shall be the successor of the Custodian hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section 3.4.    Limitation of the Custodian's Duties.

        The Custodian shall have no duties or obligations (including any fiduciary duties) other than those specifically set forth herein or as may subsequently be agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. The Custodian:

        (a)   may consult with counsel and any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel; and shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, unless it shall be provided that the Custodian was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

        (d)   may rely on and shall be protected in acting upon any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, facsimile or other document delivered to it and in good faith believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper party or parties; and may rely on and shall be protected in acting upon the written instructions of the Lender and such employees and representatives of the Lender as the Lender may hereinafter designate in writing;

        (e)   shall not be responsible for the validity and perfection of the Lender's security interest in the Eligible Loans hereunder, other than the Custodian's obligation to take possession of the Collateral Files as set forth in Section 2.1(a) hereof, and makes no representation or warranty with respect to the validity, adequacy or perfection of any lien upon or security interest in any Collateral File;

13

        (f)    shall have no responsibility or duty with respect to any Collateral Files while not in its possession;

        (g)   shall be under no obligation to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, exhibit, request, representation, opinion, certificate, statement, acknowledgement, consent, order or document in the Collateral File;

        (h)   shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken in accordance with the written direction, instruction, acknowledgement, consent or any other communication from the Lender;

        (i)    shall not be responsible for preparing or filing any reports or returns relating to federal, state or local income taxes with respect to this Agreement, other than for the Custodian's compensation or for reimbursement of expenses;

        (j)    shall have no duty to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction, other than any jurisdiction where its ownership of property or conduct of business requires such qualification and where failure to qualify could have a material adverse effect on the Custodian or its property or business or on the ability of the Custodian to perform it duties hereunder;

        (k)   shall have no duty to ascertain whether or not any cash amount or payment has been received by the Borrower, the Lender, any purchaser, any seller, or any other third Person;

        (l)    to the extent that, at law or in equity, the Custodian has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Borrower or the Lender, as applicable, it is hereby understood and agreed by the Borrower and the Lender, and by any Person claiming by, through or under the applicable party, that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Custodian's duties and liabilities are replaced by the duties and liabilities expressly set forth in this Agreement; and

        (m)  except with respect to certain defined terms in the Loan Agreement used herein, shall not be charged with knowledge of or have any duties or obligations in connection with any other document or agreement, including without limitation, the Loan Agreement.

        The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Custodian and the termination or transfer of this Custodial Agreement.

Section 3.5.    Indemnification and Liability of the Custodian; Force Majeure.

        The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold the Custodian and its directors, officers, agents and employees harmless against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including reasonable attorney's fees, that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or not taken by it or them hereunder or under any related document or agreement, unless such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements were imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Custodian solely as a result of a breach by the Custodian of its obligations hereunder, or gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Custodian or any of its directors, officers, agents or employees. The foregoing indemnification shall survive any resignation or removal of the Custodian or the termination or assignment of this Agreement.

        Neither the Custodian nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees, shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith in good faith and believed by it or them to be within the purview of this Agreement, except for its own breach of this Agreement, gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. In no event shall the Custodian or its directors, officers, agents and employees be liable for any special, indirect, incidental, punitive or consequential damages from any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in

14

connection herewith even if advised of the possibility of such damages. No provision of this Agreement shall require the Custodian to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability (other than expenses or liabilities otherwise required to be incurred by the express terms of this Agreement) in the performance of its duties under this Agreement if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity is not reasonably assured to it.

        The Custodian will not have any liability for failure to perform or delay in performing duties set forth herein if the failure or delay is due to an event of force majeure. An event of force majeure is an event or condition beyond the Custodian's control, such as, without limitation, a natural disaster, civil unrest, state of war, or act of terrorism.

Section 3.6.    Indemnification and Liability of Lender and Borrower.

        In the event that Custodian fails to produce a Note that was in its possession pursuant to Article II hereof within two (2) Business Days after required or requested by Lender or Borrower, and provided that (i) Custodian previously delivered to Lender a Collateral Schedule and Exception Report which did not list such Note as an Exception on the related Funding Date, (ii) such Note is not outstanding pursuant to a Request for Release and Receipt or a Request for Release of Documents and Receipt in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit 5-A or Exhibit 5-B, respectively and (iii) such Note was held by Custodian on behalf of Lender or Borrower, as applicable (a "Custodial Delivery Failure"), then Custodian shall (a) with respect to any missing Note, promptly deliver to Lender or Borrower upon request, a Lost Note Affidavit in the form of Exhibit 13 attached hereto (a "Lost Note Affidavit") and (b) indemnify Lender and Borrower, as applicable, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.6.

        Custodian agrees to indemnify and hold Lender and Borrower, and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives harmless against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, and costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including reasonable attorneys' fees, that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or them in any way relating to or arising out of (i) a Custodial Delivery Failure; or (ii) Custodian's gross negligence, lack of good faith, fraud or willful misconduct. The foregoing indemnification shall survive the termination or assignment of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of Custodian or any Successor Custodian.

Section 3.7.    Anti-Money Laundering Laws.

        In order to comply with laws, rules and regulations applicable to banking institutions, including those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering ("AML Laws"), the Custodian is required to obtain, verify and record certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship with the Custodian. Accordingly, the Borrower and the Lender agree to provide to the Custodian upon its reasonable request from time to time the Borrower's or the Lender's, as applicable, complete name, address, tax identification number and such other identifying information together with copies of the applicable parties constituting documentation, securities disclosure documentation and such other identifying documentation, each as and to the extent necessary for the Custodian to comply with the AML Laws.

Any suit, action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement may be instituted in any State or Federal court sitting in the City of ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ of America, and each party irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding and waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that such suit, action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by certified air mail return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to such party at its address on the signature page hereof or in any other manner permitted by law, such service to become effective upon the earlier of (i) the date received as evidenced by the appropriate signature on the return receipt requested card or (ii) any earlier date permitted by applicable law.

The foregoing shall not be applicable to any information that is publicly available when provided or thereafter becomes publicly available other than through a breach of this Agreement, or that is required or requested to be disclosed by any bank or other regulatory examiner of the Custodian, the Borrower, the Lender or any auditor of the parties hereto, by judicial or administrative process, by applicable law or regulation or by any law enforcement authority. The provisions of this Section 5.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 5.14.    Pledging of the Eligible Loans by the Lender.

        In connection with a pledge of the Eligible Loans as collateral for an obligation of the Lender, the Lender, to the extent consistent with the Loan Agreement, may pledge its interest in the Collateral Files held by the Custodian for the benefit of the Lender from time to time by delivering written notice to the Custodian and Borrower stating that the Lender has pledged its interest in the identified Eligible Loans and Collateral Files, and the identity of the party to whom the Eligible Loans have been pledged (such party, the "Pledgee"). Upon receipt of such notice from the Lender, the Custodian shall ▇▇▇▇ its records to reflect the pledge of the Eligible Loans by the Lender to the Pledgee. The Custodian's records shall reflect the pledge of the Eligible Loans by the Lender to the Pledgee until such time as the Custodian receives written instructions from the Lender that the Eligible Loans are no longer pledged by the Lender to the Pledgee, at which time the Custodian shall change its records to reflect the release of the pledge of the Eligible Loans and that the Custodian is holding the Eligible Loans as custodian for, and for the benefit of, the Lender.
