PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

(Terms used but not defined in this Preliminary
Statement shall have the meanings
specified in Article I hereof)

The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates to be issued hereunder in multiple classes which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund consisting primarily of the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Subordinate Companion Loan. As provided herein, the Certificate Administrator will elect that three segregated portions of the Trust Fund (other than the Class S Specific Grantor Trust Assets) be treated for federal income tax purposes as three separate REMICs (designated as the “000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx REMIC,” the “Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Lower-Tier REMIC”, respectively). In addition, the parties intend that the portion of the Trust Fund consisting of the Class S Specific Grantor Trust Assets will be treated as a grantor trust under subpart E of Part I of subchapter J of the Code. Solely for federal income tax purposes, the Class S Certificates shall represent undivided beneficial interests in any Class S Specific Grantor Trust Assets.

000 XXXXX XXXXXX REMIC

The 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx REMIC will hold the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Trust Subordinate Companion Loan and will issue (i) 5 classes of uncertificated 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Regular Interests (designated as the Class L805A, Class L805B, Class L805C, Class L805D and Class L805H 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Regular Interests, respectively), each of which will constitute a class of “regular interests” in the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx REMIC, and (ii) the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Residual Interest, which will be the sole class of “residual interests” in the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx REMIC and will be evidenced by the Class R Certificates.

The following table sets forth the per annum rate at which interest will accrue on, and the original 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Principal Balance of, each 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Regular Interest:

The 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Residual Interest will not have a principal balance, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Yield Maintenance Charges. Any 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Available Funds remaining in the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx REMIC Distribution Account after all distributions deemed made on the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Regular Interests on any Distribution Date will be payable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Residual Interest.

The Holders of the Loan-Specific Certificates shall only be entitled to receive distributions in respect of, and shall only incur losses with respect to, the 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Trust Subordinate Companion Loan, which is not part of the Mortgage Pool backing the Pooled Certificates.

(1) The Class X-A, Class X-B, Class X-D, Class X-F, Class X-G and Class X-H Certificates will not have Certificate Balances; rather, each such Class of Certificates will accrue interest as provided herein on the related Notional Amount.

The Upper-Tier Residual Interest will not have a Certificate Balance or Notional Amount, will not bear interest and will not be entitled to distributions of Yield Maintenance Charges. Any Available Funds remaining in the Upper-Tier REMIC Distribution Account, after all required distributions under this Agreement have been made with respect to the Regular Certificates, will be distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates in respect of the Upper-Tier Residual Interest.

Each Class of Pooled Principal Balance Certificates constitutes the “Corresponding Certificates” with respect to the Corresponding Lower-Tier Regular Interest and the Corresponding Component (if any) for that Class. Each Class of Loan-Specific Certificates constitutes the “Corresponding Certificates” with respect to the Corresponding 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Regular Interest for that Class.

- 22 -

months), the Special Servicer shall, within 30 days of each anniversary of such Appraisal Reduction Event, order an Appraisal (which may be an update of the prior Appraisal) (the cost of which will be covered by, and reimbursable as, a Property Advance by the Master Servicer or as an expense of the Trust Fund and paid by the Master Servicer out of the Collection Account if such Property Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance), provided, however, no new or updated Appraisal or internal valuation will be required if the Serviced Loan or REO Property is under contract to be sold within 90 days of such Appraisal Reduction Event or anniversary thereof and the Special Servicer reasonably believes such sale is likely to close. Based upon such Appraisal or letter updates thereto, or, if applicable, an internal valuation, the Special Servicer shall determine and report to the Master Servicer and the Certificate Administrator the Appraisal Reduction Amount, if any, with respect to such Serviced Mortgage Loan (or Serviced Loan Combination), and each of those parties shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such determination by the Special Servicer.

Each Appraisal Reduction Amount shall also be adjusted with respect to the next Distribution Date to take into account any subsequent Appraisal and annual letter updates or, if applicable, any subsequent internal valuation, as of the date of each such subsequent Appraisal or letter update or, if applicable, internal valuation.

Upon payment in full or liquidation of any Serviced Loan for which an Appraisal Reduction Amount has been determined, such Appraisal Reduction Amount will be eliminated. In addition, with respect to any Serviced Loan, as to which an Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred, such Serviced Loan shall no longer be subject to the Appraisal Reduction Amount if (a) such Serviced Loan has become a Corrected Loan (if a Servicing Transfer Event had occurred with respect to the related Serviced Loan) and such Serviced Loan becomes and remains current for three consecutive Monthly Payments and (b) no other Appraisal Reduction Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to such Serviced Loan.

(y) with respect to the circumstances described in clause (b) of this definition, such default is cured as determined by the Special Servicer in its reasonable, good faith judgment; and

(z) with respect to the circumstances described in clause (f) of this definition, such proceedings are terminated.

The Special Servicer may conclusively rely on the Master Servicer’s determination and the Master Servicer may conclusively rely on the Special Servicer’s determination as to whether a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred giving rise to a Serviced Loan’s becoming a Specially Serviced Loan. If any Serviced Mortgage Loan that is part of a Serviced Loan Combination becomes a Specially Serviced Loan, then the related Serviced Companion Loan shall also become a Specially Serviced Loan.
