On the Price Differential Payment Date, Seller shall pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers (to the extent not paid on such date through the payments required pursuant to Sections 7(d) or 7(e) hereof) the accrued but unpaid Price Differential for such Price Differential Payment Date (along with any other amounts to be paid pursuant to Section 7 and Section 34, by wire transfer in immediately available funds.

b. If Seller fails to pay all or part of the Price Differential by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the related Price Differential Payment Date, with respect to any Purchased Asset, Seller shall be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers (in addition to, and together with, the amount of such Price Differential) interest on the unpaid Repurchase Price at a rate per annum equal to the Post Default Rate calculated from and after such Price Differential Payment Date and until the Price Differential is received in full by Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers.

c. If prior to any Pricing Period, Administrative Agent determines that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Pricing Period, Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to Seller, whereupon the Pricing Rate for such Pricing Period, and for all subsequent Pricing Periods until such notice has been withdrawn by Administrative Agent, shall be an alternative per annum rate based on an index approximating the behavior of LIBOR, as determined by Administrative Agent, in its good faith discretion, and implementing the same index and manner of calculations as Administrative Agent implements for similar repurchase facilities financing assets similar to the Purchased Assets for other borrowers or sellers in such similar repurchase facilities.

6. Margin Maintenance

a. Administrative Agent shall determine the Market Value of any applicable Purchased Asset on any date.

b. If at any time the sum of (i) the aggregate Asset Value of all of the Purchased Assets subject to Transactions and (ii) the Hedge Value, if any, is less than the aggregate Purchase Price for then outstanding Transactions (an “Asset Value Margin Deficit”), then, if such Asset Value Margin Deficit (combined with any Concentration Limit Margin Deficit) is greater than the Permitted Amount, Administrative Agent may by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers cash in an amount at least equal to the Asset Value Margin Deficit (such requirement, an “Asset Value Margin Call”) and Administrative Agent shall apply such cash to the outstanding Purchase Price of such Purchased Asset giving rise to such Asset Value Margin Call.

c. If at any time after the then applicable Concentration Limit Trigger Date, a Concentration Limit Margin Deficit occurs, then, if such Concentration Limit Margin Deficit (combined with any Asset Value Margin Deficit) is greater than the Permitted Amount, Administrative Agent may by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers cash in an amount at least equal to the Concentration Limit Margin Deficit (a “Concentration Limit Margin Call”) and Administrative Agent shall apply such cash to the outstanding Purchase Price of all Purchased Assets on a weighted average, pro rata, basis in the category of the Purchased Assets that exceeded its respective Concentration Limit.

d. Notice delivered pursuant to Sections 6(b) or 6(c) may be given by any written means. Any notice given on a Business Day shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the following Business Day (the foregoing time requirements for satisfaction of a Margin Call are referred to as the “Margin Deadlines”). The failure of Administrative Agent, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Administrative Agent to do so at a later date, so long as the related Asset Value Margin Deficit or Concentration Limit Margin Deficit is then continuing. Seller and Administrative Agent each agree that a failure or delay by Administrative Agent to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive Administrative Agent’s or Buyers’ rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Seller, so long as the related Asset Value Margin Deficit or Concentration Limit Margin Deficit is then continuing.

e. In the event that a Margin Deficit exists with respect to any Purchased Asset, Administrative Agent may retain any funds received by it to which the Seller (or in the case of any Pledged Hedge, Pledgor) would otherwise be entitled hereunder (or under any other Program Agreements), which funds (i) shall be held by Administrative Agent against the related Margin Deficit (until such time as such Margin Deficit shall no longer exist) and (ii) may be applied by Administrative Agent against the Purchase Price of any Purchased Asset for which the related Margin Deficit remains otherwise unsatisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent retains the right, in its sole discretion, to make a Margin Call in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.

7. Income Payments

a. The Deposit Account shall be established by the Servicer or Seller, as applicable, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Control Account Agreement concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Seller and Administrative Agent. Upon an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control over Deposit Account. All Income (other than amounts payable to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4(c) or 7(d) hereof and amounts payable to the Servicer, or deposited in escrow accounts, pursuant to the Servicing Agreement) in respect of the Purchased Assets and any payments in respect of associated Interest Rate Protection Agreements, as well as any interest received from the reinvestment of such Income, shall be deposited into the Deposit Account on each Servicer Remittance Date by Servicer and shall be remitted from the Deposit Account in accordance with this Agreement and the Control Account Agreement. All such Income shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent, shall constitute the property of Administrative Agent and once deposited into the Deposit Account shall not be commingled with other property of Seller, any Affiliate of Seller or Servicer.

b. Except in relation to amounts payable to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4(c) or 7(d) hereof, Seller shall cause the Servicer to deposit all Income (other than amounts payable to Servicer or deposited in escrow accounts pursuant to the Servicing Agreement), derived from the Purchased Assets, whether constituting collections thereon or proceeds of sale thereof, into the Servicer Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt by Servicer and Seller shall cause the Servicer to remit all such Income to the Deposit Account on each Servicer Remittance Date.

c. In addition, with respect to each Purchased Asset, Seller and Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian of such Purchased Asset a Notice to Mortgagor. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may deliver such instruction letter to the borrower or obligor under such Purchased Asset.

d. All Balloon Payments and Principal Prepayments received on account of a Purchased Asset shall be deposited into the Deposit Account on the next Servicer Remittance Date and Seller or Servicer shall provide notice to Bank and Administrative Agent directing Bank how to distribute such deposits in accordance with a Distribution Worksheet on such Business Day. Subject to the terms of the Control Account Agreement, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder, Seller or the Servicer shall instruct Bank to withdraw or reserve such deposits as follows:

(1) first, to Administrative Agent to reduce the Purchase Price of the related Purchased Asset by an amount equal to such deposit multiplied by the Effective Advance Rate;

(2) second, to Administrative Agent in the amount of any unpaid Margin Deficit;

(3) third, to the payment of all other costs, fees and other amounts payable to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement; and

e. Funds deposited in the Deposit Account during any Pricing Period (except as provided in Section 4(c) and Section 7(d) and with respect to funds used to purchase Permitted Investments) shall be held therein until the next Price Differential Payment Date. On or before 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day prior to the Price Differential Payment Date, Seller or Servicer shall deliver to Administrative Agent and the Bank a Distribution Worksheet. Subject to the terms of the Control Account Agreement, Seller or the Servicer shall instruct the Bank to withdraw any funds on deposit in the Deposit Account and distribute such funds as follows:

(1) first, to Servicer in payment of any servicing fees in accordance with the Servicing Agreement pro rata;

(2) second, to Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers in payment of any accrued and unpaid Price Differential to the extent not paid by Seller to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5;

(3) third, without limiting the rights of Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers under Section 6 of this Agreement, to Administrative Agent, in the amount of any unpaid Margin Deficit;

(4) fourth, to Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers in reduction of the Purchase Price of each Purchased Asset, the full amount of any payments of principal received on or with respect to such Purchased Asset multiplied by the Effective Advance Rate, in each case only to the extent not previously paid pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement;

(5) fifth, to the payment of all other costs, fees or other amounts payable to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement; and

(6) sixth, any remainder shall be paid to Seller.

f. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder, all funds in the Deposit Account shall be withdrawn and applied:

(1) first, in the same order of priority as Sections 7(e)(1), (2), (3), (4) and (5) above;

(2) second, to reduction of the Repurchase Price of all Purchased Assets until reduced to zero; and

(3) third, any remainder shall be paid to Seller.

g. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Program Agreement to contrary, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder, all amounts paid to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Irrevocable Instruction Letter, if any, shall be applied by Administrative Agent as provided in Section 6(e) above to cure any unpaid Margin Deficit or to reduce the Purchase Price of any Purchased Asset giving rise to such Margin Deficit and, thereafter:

(1) first, in the same order of priority as Sections 7(e)(1), (2), (4) and (5) above; and

(2) second, in the same order of priority as set forth in Section 7(f)(2) and (3) above.

h. Administrative Agent shall offset against the accrued and outstanding Price Differential all Price Differential payments actually received by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5, excluding any amounts paid pursuant to any Price Differential payments made at the Post Default Rate.

i. For the avoidance of doubt, no provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to waive, impair or alter Seller’s rights or Administrative Agent’s or Buyer’s obligations under this Section 7.

8. Security Interest

On each Purchase Date thereof set forth in the related Confirmation, Seller hereby sells, assigns and conveys all rights and interests in the Purchased Assets on a servicing released basis identified on the related Purchased Asset Schedule and the related Repurchase Assets to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers. Although the parties intend that all Transactions hereunder be sales and purchases and not loans (other than for accounting and tax purposes), in the event any such Transactions are deemed to be loans, Seller hereby pledges to Administrative Agent as security for the performance by Seller of its Obligations and hereby grants, assigns and pledges to Administrative Agent a security interest in Seller’s rights, title and interests in the Purchased Assets, the Records, and all related Servicing Rights, the Program Agreements (to the extent such Program Agreements and Seller’s right thereunder relate to the Purchased Assets), any Property relating to the Purchased Assets, all insurance policies and insurance proceeds relating to any Purchased Asset or the related Mortgaged Property, including, but not limited to, any payments or proceeds under any related primary insurance and hazard insurance, Income, Interest Rate Protection Agreements (including, without limitation, any rights Seller may have, if any, under a CS Pledged Hedge, if any), accounts (including any interest of Seller in escrow accounts and reserve accounts) relating to the Purchased Assets and any other contract rights, instruments, accounts, payments, rights to payment (including payments of interest or finance charges) general intangibles and other assets relating to the Purchased Assets (including, without limitation, any other accounts) or any other interest in the Purchased Assets and any proceeds and distributions with respect to any of the foregoing and any other property, rights, title or interests as are specified on a Transaction Request and Confirmation and/or Trust Receipt with respect to the Purchased Assets, in all instances, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created (collectively, the “Repurchase Assets”). Seller further hereby pledges to Administrative Agent as security for the performance by Seller of its Obligations and hereby grants, assigns and pledges to Administrative Agent a security interest in Seller’s rights, title and interests in the Deposit Account. Seller agrees to execute, deliver and/or file such documents and perform such acts as may be reasonably necessary to fully perfect Administrative Agent’s security interest created hereby. Furthermore, Seller hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Repurchase Assets as Administrative Agent, at its option, may deem appropriate, describing the collateral as “all assets of the Debtor” or words to that effect, and any limitations on such collateral description, notwithstanding that such collateral description may be broader in scope than the Repurchase Assets described in this Agreement. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section.

Seller acknowledges that the rights to service the Purchased Assets have been conveyed to Administrative Agent, and, in connection with the Transactions, Administrative Agent has granted to Seller a revocable license to service the Purchased Assets as a party to the current Servicing Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in the event that Seller or Guarantor is deemed to retain any residual Servicing Rights, and for the avoidance of doubt, each of Seller and Guarantor grants, assigns and pledges to Administrative Agent security interest in the Servicing Rights, as indicated in the paragraph above. The foregoing provision is intended to constitute a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement related to the Agreement and transactions hereunder as defined under Sections 101(47)(A)(v) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(ii) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Seller or Guarantor under the Program Agreements shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Seller or Guarantor, as applicable, shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 11(e)) Administrative Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(iii) Payment of Other Taxes. Seller and Guarantor shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes.

(iv) Indemnification. Seller and Guarantor (without duplication of any obligation of Guarantor under the Guaranty) shall jointly and severally indemnify Administrative Agent or a Buyer, 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 11(e)) payable or paid by Administrative Agent or such Buyer or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Administrative Agent or such Buyer and any 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 such payment or liability delivered to Seller or Guarantor by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(v) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Seller or Guarantor to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 11(e), Seller or Guarantor, as applicable, shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

In addition, Administrative Agent shall cause each Buyer and Buyer assignee, if reasonably requested by Seller, to deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Seller as will enable Seller to determine whether or not such Buyer or Buyer assignee is subject to backup 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 such documentation set forth in Section 11(e)(vii)(A), (B) and (D) below) shall not be required if in such Buyer’s or such Buyer’s assignee’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Buyer or such Buyer assignee to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Buyer or such Buyer assignee.

(vii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Seller is a U.S. Person,

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

(D) If a payment made to any Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant under any Program Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant 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), Administrative Agent on behalf of such Buyer or such Buyer assignee or participant shall deliver to Seller at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Seller 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 as may be necessary for Seller to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Buyer or such Buyer assignee or participant has complied with such Buyer’s or such Buyer’s assignee’s or participant’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

Each Buyer or each Buyer assignee or participant 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 or promptly notify Seller in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(vii) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party 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 pursuant to this Section 11(e) (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 11(e)), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 11(e) with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (viii) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (viii), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (viii) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

f. Each party’s obligations under this Section 11 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Buyer or a Buyer assignee or participant, the termination of the Transactions and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Program Agreement.

g. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Assets, and the Purchased Assets as owned by Seller in the absence of an Event of Default by Seller. Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers and Seller agree that they will treat and report for all tax purposes the Transactions entered into hereunder as one or more loans from any Buyer to Seller secured by the Purchased Assets, unless otherwise prohibited by law or upon a final determination by any taxing authority that the Transactions are not loans for tax purposes.

12. Servicing

a. Seller, on Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’ behalf, shall contract with Servicer to, or if Seller is the Servicer, Seller shall, service the Purchased Assets pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, consistent with the degree of skill and care that Servicer customarily requires with respect to similar Purchased Assets owned or managed by it and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. The Servicing Agreement shall require, inter alia, that Servicer (i) comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations, (ii) maintain all state and federal licenses necessary for it to perform its servicing responsibilities hereunder and (iii) not impair the rights of Administrative Agent or Buyers in any Purchased Assets or any payment thereunder. In addition, the Servicing Agreement shall require that the Servicer deposit all collections of Income (other than amounts deposited in escrow accounts pursuant to the Servicing Agreement) received by Servicer on account of the Purchased Assets in the Servicer Account no later than two (2) Business Days following receipt and into the Deposit Account on each Servicer Remittance Date.

b. Upon the occurrence of any of an Event of Default hereunder, Administrative Agent shall have the right to immediately terminate the Servicer’s right to service the Purchased Assets without payment of any penalty or termination fee. Seller and Servicer shall cooperate in transferring the servicing of the Purchased Assets to a successor servicer appointed by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, unless an Event of Default has occurred, upon the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event, Seller shall have the right to appoint a successor servicer acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

c. If Seller should discover that, for any reason whatsoever, Servicer or any entity responsible for managing or servicing any Purchased Assets has failed to perform in all material respects any of the obligations of such entities with respect to the Purchased Assets, or that an event of default under the Servicing Agreement has occurred, Seller shall promptly notify Administrative Agent.

d. In the event that the Servicer is a master servicer of a Purchased Asset which is serviced by a Third Party Servicer, the Seller shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a Servicer Notice and Redirection Letter addressed to and agreed to by the Third Party Servicer of the related Purchased Assets, advising such Third Party Servicer of such matters as Administrative Agent may reasonably request, including, without limitation, recognition by the master servicer of Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’ interest in such Purchased Assets and the Third Party Servicer’s agreement that upon receipt of notice of an Event of Default from Administrative Agent, it will follow the instructions of Administrative Agent with respect to the Purchased Assets and any related Income with respect thereto.

e. Seller shall not employ sub-servicers (other than the Servicer or Affiliates thereof or Third Party Servicers) to service the Purchased Assets without the prior written approval of Administrative Agent, which such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the Purchased Assets are serviced, in whole or in part, by a sub-servicer (i) Servicer shall nevertheless remain primarily liable to Administrative Agent for the servicing of the Purchased Assets under the Servicing Agreement; and (ii) any agreement with a subservicer shall entitle Administrative Agent to terminate such subservicer without fee or penalty in the event that Servicer is replaced subject to the terms of the applicable sub-servicing agreement.

f. Seller shall cause Servicer to provide to Administrative Agent, electronically, in a format mutually acceptable to Administrative Agent and Seller, by no later than the Reporting Date, the Servicing Report.

g. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller retains no rights to the servicing other than the revocable license granted by Administrative Agent to Seller to service under the Servicing Agreement. As such, Seller expressly acknowledges that the Purchased Assets are sold to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers on a “servicing released” basis.

13. Representations and Warranties

a. Each of Seller and Guarantor represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Buyers as of the date hereof and as of each Purchase Date for any Transaction and at all times while the Program Agreements are in full force and effect and/or any Transaction under the Agreement is outstanding that:

(1) Seller and Guarantor Existence. Seller has been duly organized and is validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Guarantor has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland.

(2) Licenses. Each of Seller and Guarantor is duly licensed or is otherwise qualified in each jurisdiction in which it transacts business for the business which it conducts and is not in default of any applicable federal, state or local laws, rules and regulations unless, in either instance, the failure to take such action is not reasonably likely (either individually or in the aggregate) to cause a Material Adverse Effect and is not in default of such state’s applicable laws, rules and regulations. Each of Seller and Guarantor has the requisite power and authority and legal right to originate and purchase, or cause to be originated or purchased, Eligible Assets (as applicable) and to own, sell and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇ on all of its right, title and interest in and to the Repurchase Assets, and to execute and deliver, engage in the transactions contemplated by, and perform and observe the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, each Program Agreement and any Transaction Request and Confirmation.

(3) Power. Each of Seller and Guarantor has all requisite corporate or other power, and has all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its assets and carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted, except where the lack of such licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(4) Due Authorization. Each of Seller and Guarantor has all necessary corporate or other power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Program Agreements to which it is a party, as applicable. This Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation and the Program Agreements to which it is a party have been (or, in the case of Program Agreements and any Transaction Request and Confirmation not yet executed, will be) duly authorized, executed and delivered by Seller and Guarantor, all requisite or other corporate action having been taken, and each is valid, binding and enforceable against Seller and Guarantor in accordance with its terms except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws, or by general principles of equity.

(5) Financial Statements. The Guarantor has heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent a copy of (a) its consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated balance sheets of its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year of the Guarantor ended December 31, 2016 and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous year, with the opinion thereon of Ernst & Young LLP and (b) its consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated balance sheets of its consolidated Subsidiaries for the quarterly fiscal periods of the Guarantor ended March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017 and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and of cash flows for the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries for such quarterly fiscal periods, setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous year. All such financial statements are complete and correct and fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries and the consolidated results of their operations as at such dates and for such fiscal periods, all in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis, except as noted therein (subject as to interim statements to normal year-end adjustments). Since June 30, 2017, there has been no material adverse change in the consolidated business, operations or financial condition of the Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries taken as a whole from that set forth in said financial statements nor is Seller aware of any state of facts which (with notice or the lapse of time) would or could result in any such material adverse change. The Guarantor has, on the date of the statements delivered pursuant to this Section (the “Statement Date”) no liabilities, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, or liabilities for taxes, long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments not disclosed by, or reserved against in, said balance sheet and related statements, to the extent required in accordance with GAAP, and at the present time there are no material unrealized or anticipated losses from any loans, advances or other commitments of Seller except as heretofore disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing.

(6) Event of Default. There exists no Event of Default under Section 15(b) hereof, which default gives rise to a right to accelerate indebtedness as referenced in Section 15(b) hereof, under any mortgage, borrowing agreement or other instrument or agreement pertaining to indebtedness for borrowed money or to the repurchase of mortgage loans or securities.

(7) Solvency. Each of Seller and Guarantor is solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by any Transaction and, after giving effect to such Transaction, will not be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business. Neither Seller nor Guarantor intends to incur, nor believes that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature and is not contemplating the commencement of insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or consolidation proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar official in respect of such entity or any of its assets. The amount of consideration being received by Seller upon the sale of the Purchased Assets to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for such Purchased Assets. Seller is not transferring any Purchased Assets with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors.

(8) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by each of Seller and Guarantor of this Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation hereunder and the Program Agreements do not conflict with any term or provision of the organizational documents of Seller or Guarantor or any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree applicable to Seller or Guarantor of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over Seller or Guarantor, which conflict would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect and will not result in any violation of any material instrument, agreement or obligation to which Seller or Guarantor is a party.

(9) True and Complete Disclosure. All information, reports, exhibits, schedules, financial statements or certificates of Seller or Guarantor furnished or to be furnished to Administrative Agent or Buyers in connection with the initial or any ongoing due diligence of Seller or Guarantor, or the negotiation, preparation, or delivery of the Program Agreements are true and complete and do not omit to disclose any material facts necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading. All financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.

(10) Approvals. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, registration or filing (other than the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements on Form UCC-1 or UCC-3 as contemplated by this Agreement or the Program Agreements) with, or notice to any governmental authority or court is required under applicable law in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Seller or Guarantor of this Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation and the Program Agreements.

(11) Litigation. There is no action, proceeding or investigation pending with respect to which either Seller or Guarantor has received service of process or, to the best of Seller’s or Guarantor’s knowledge threatened against it before any court, administrative agency or other tribunal (A) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, any Transaction, Transaction Request and Confirmation or any Program Agreement, (B) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation or any Program Agreement, (C) makes a claim individually or in an aggregate amount greater than (i) with respect to Seller, $500,000, and (ii) with respect to Guarantor, $15,000,000, (D) which requires filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with the 1934 Act or any rules thereunder or (E) which might materially and adversely affect the validity of the Mortgage Loans or the performance by it of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation or any Program Agreement.

(12) Material Adverse Effect. To Seller’s actual knowledge, no Material Adverse Effect has occurred.

(13) Ownership. Upon payment of the Purchase Price and the filing of the financing statement and delivery of the Asset Files to the Custodian and the Custodian’s receipt of the related Purchased Asset Schedule, Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Buyers, shall become the sole owner of the Purchased Assets and related Repurchase Assets, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances.

(14) Taxes. Seller and Guarantor have timely filed all federal and other material tax returns that are required to be filed by them and have timely paid all Taxes, except for any such Taxes as are being appropriately contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and with respect to which adequate reserves have been provided. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of Seller and Guarantor in respect of Taxes and other governmental charges are adequate.

(15) Investment Company. Neither Seller nor Guarantor is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(16) Chief Executive Office; Jurisdiction of Organization. On the Effective Date, Seller’s chief executive office, is, and has been, located at c/o Benefit Street Partners L.L.C., ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇. On the Effective Date, Seller’s jurisdiction of organization is the State of Delaware. Seller shall provide Administrative Agent with thirty days advance notice of any change in Seller’s principal office or place of business or jurisdiction.

(17) Location of Books and Records. The location where Seller keeps its books and records, including all computer tapes and records relating to the Purchased Assets and the related Repurchase Assets is its chief executive office.

(18) ERISA. Each Plan, if any, to which Seller, Guarantor or its Subsidiaries make direct contributions, and, to the knowledge of Seller and Guarantor, each other Plan and each Multiemployer Plan, is in compliance in all material respects with, and has been administered in all material respects in compliance with, the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and any other federal or state law.

(19) Reserved.

(20) Agreements. Seller is not in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any material agreement, instrument, or indenture which default is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(21) Other Indebtedness. Seller has no Indebtedness other than Indebtedness evidenced or contemplated by this Agreement or the Program Agreements.

(22) No Reliance. Each of Seller and Guarantor has made its own independent decisions to enter into the Program Agreements and each Transaction and as to whether such Transaction is appropriate and proper for it based upon its own judgment and upon advice from such advisors (including without limitation, legal counsel and accountants) as it has deemed necessary. Neither Seller nor Guarantor is relying upon any advice from Administrative Agent or Buyers as to any aspect of the Transactions, including without limitation, the legal, accounting or tax treatment of such Transactions.

(23) Plan Assets. Neither Seller nor Guarantor is an employee benefit plan as defined in Section 3 of Title I of ERISA, or a plan described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, the Purchased Assets are not “plan assets” within the meaning of 29 CFR §2510.3-101 as amended by Section 3(42) of ERISA in the Seller’s hands, and transactions by or with Seller or Guarantor are not subject to any state or local statute regulating investments, or fiduciary obligations with respect to governmental plans within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA.

(24) No Prohibited Persons. Neither the Seller, the Guarantor nor, to their actual knowledge, any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, partners or members, is an entity or person (or to the Seller’s knowledge, fifty (50%) percent or greater owned by an entity or person): (i) whose name appears on the United States Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) most current list of “Specifically Designated National and Blocked Persons” (which list may be published from time to time in various mediums including, but not limited to, the OFAC website, http:▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇); or (ii) is otherwise the target of sanctions administered by OFAC (any and all parties or persons described in clauses (i) and (ii) above are herein referred to as a “Prohibited Person”).

(25) Asset File. Each Asset File delivered by Seller represents a true and correct copy of the documents contained therein and each Purchased Asset Schedule and Closing Data Tape, together with all other information contained therein prepared by Seller and delivered by Seller to Administrative Agent immediately prior to the Purchase Date, is true and correct in all material respects and conforms in all material respects to the Summary Diligence Materials and Preliminary Data Tape previously provided to Administrative Agent and pursuant to which Administrative Agent has elected to enter into the Transaction.

b. With respect to every Purchased Asset, each of Seller and Guarantor represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Buyers as of the applicable Purchase Date for any Transaction and each date thereafter that each representation and warranty set forth on Schedule 1 is true and correct; provided that, with respect to any Purchased Asset that is a Pari Passu Loan Interest, Seller, Guarantor and Administrative Agent shall agree such modifications to the representations and warranties set forth on Schedule 1 as shall be appropriate to reflect the fact that such Purchased Asset is a Pari Passu Loan Interest and not a whole Commercial Mortgage Loan, with such revised representations and warranties to be included as a revised version of Schedule 1 that will be attached to the Transaction Request and Confirmation relating to such Purchased Asset at the time of such Transaction.

c. The representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall survive transfer of the Purchased Assets to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers and to each Buyer and shall continue for so long as the Purchased Assets are subject to this Agreement. Upon discovery by Seller, Guarantor, Servicer or Administrative Agent of any breach of any of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement, the party discovering such breach shall promptly give notice of such discovery to the others.

q. Transactions with Affiliates. Seller will not enter into any transaction, including, without limitation, any purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or the rendering of any service, with any Affiliate unless such transaction is (a) otherwise permitted under the Program Agreements, (b) in the ordinary course of Seller’s business and (c) upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to Seller than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person which is not an Affiliate.

r. Guarantees. Except to the extent arising from the performance of any obligation, right or remedy under and expressly contemplated by any Purchased Asset Documents, Seller shall not create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Guarantees.

v. Hedging. The Guarantor, or a wholly owned subsidiary thereof, shall enter into and maintain Interest Rate Protection Agreement Transactions in an amount and in accordance with Guarantor’s internal hedging policy. Guarantor shall notify Administrative Agent of any material change in Guarantor’s internal hedging policy prior to implementing such change. Administrative Agent shall advise Guarantor in writing of any objection to such change in policy within five (5) Business Days after having been notified of the proposed change and, if Administrative Agent so raises a written objection, Guarantor shall have a period of ten (10) Business Days in which to adjust the change in hedging policy in a manner acceptable to Administrative Agent. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, Guarantor proceeds with a material change in its internal hedging policy to which Administrative Agent has raised (and not withdrawn) a written objection, then Administrative Agent shall have the right to reduce the Margin Threshold from five (5%) percent to zero for all future Transactions.

w. Financial Covenants. Guarantor shall at all times comply with all financial covenants and/or financial ratios set forth in Section 3 of the Pricing Side Letter.

For the avoidance of doubt and without limiting the generality of Section 6 hereof or the definitions of “Market Value” or “Asset Value” hereof, Administrative Agent’s approval of any amendment, modification or waiver shall not preclude Administrative Agent’s ability to re-determine Market Value of any Purchased Asset as a result of such amendment, modification or waiver; provided that any such approval and re-determination of Market Value shall in no way limit Administrative Agent’s right to determine Market Value in the manner and at the times otherwise permitted under the Program Agreements.

y. Seller Separateness Covenant. Seller shall (a) own no assets, and will not engage in any business, other than the assets and transactions consistent with those specifically contemplated by this Agreement and the Program Agreements, and incidental property, assets and transactions, as the case may be, necessary to perform its obligations thereunder in accordance therewith; (b) not incur any Indebtedness or obligation, secured or unsecured, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent (including guaranteeing any obligation), other than pursuant hereto, the Program Agreements and any management agreement; (c) not make any loans or advances to any third party other than in connection with the acquisition or holding of any Purchased Assets or the other Eligible Assets acquired after the date hereof, and shall not acquire obligations or securities of its Affiliates; (d) pay its debts and liabilities (including, as applicable, shared personnel and overhead expenses) only from its own assets (with no obligation to make capital contributions), it being understood, however, and agreed that the Seller and certain of its Affiliates are externally managed organizations; (e) comply with the provisions of its organizational documents; (f) do all things necessary to observe organizational formalities and to preserve its existence, and will not amend, modify or otherwise change its organizational documents, or suffer same to be amended, modified or otherwise changed, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers; (g) maintain all of its books, records, financial statements and bank accounts separate from those of its Affiliates (except that such financial statements may be consolidated to the extent consolidation is required under GAAP or as a matter of law); (h) be, and at all times will hold itself out to the public as, a legal entity separate and distinct from any other entity (including any Affiliate), shall correct any known misunderstanding regarding its status as a separate entity, shall conduct business in its own name, shall not identify itself or any of its Affiliates as a division or part of the other and, to the extent it owns or uses separate stationery, invoices and checks, to use the same bearing its own name and other identifying information (it being understood, however, and agreed that the Seller is an externally managed organization); (i) maintain adequate capital for the normal obligations reasonably foreseeable in a business of its size and character and in light of its contemplated business operations (with no obligation to make capital contributions); (j) not engage in or suffer any Change in Control, dissolution, winding up, liquidation, consolidation or merger in whole or in part unless permitted under this Agreement or a Program Agreement; (k) not commingle its funds or other assets with those of any Affiliate or any other Person, except as contemplated by this Agreement or the Program Agreements; (l) maintain its assets in such a manner that it will not be costly or difficult to segregate, ascertain or identify its individual assets from those of any Affiliate or any other Person; (m) not and will not hold itself out to be responsible for the debts or obligations of any other Person (other than as contemplated hereunder or the Program Agreements); (n) cause each of its direct owners to agree not to (i) file or consent to the filing of any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization case or proceeding with respect to Seller; institute any proceedings under any applicable insolvency law or otherwise seek any relief under any laws relating to the relief from debts or the protection of debtors generally with respect to Seller; (ii) seek or consent to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator, custodian or any similar official for Seller or a substantial portion of its properties; or (iii) make any assignment for the benefit of Seller’s creditors.

In the event that Guarantor or any Subsidiary thereof enters into a Comparable Warehouse Agreement with any Person other than Administrative Agent or an Affiliate of Administrative Agent which by its terms provides more favorable provisions to a counterparty than those granted to Administrative Agent under the Agreement with respect to (a) financial covenants or (b) such counterparty’s ability to (i) determine the market value of commercial mortgage products or (ii) make margin calls thereunder (such terms, “More Favorable Terms”); Guarantor shall (x) promptly notify Administrative Agent of such More Favorable Terms contained in such Comparable Warehouse Agreement, identifying such More Favorable Terms with reasonable specificity and (y) upon request of Administrative Agent, amend this Agreement, to conform this Agreement to such More Favorable Terms, effective as of the first Business Day of the next subsequent calendar quarter.

An Event of Default shall be deemed to be continuing unless expressly waived by Administrative Agent in writing.

16. Remedies Upon Default

In the event that an Event of Default shall have occurred:

a. Administrative Agent may, at its option (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency of Seller or Guarantor), declare an Event of Default to have occurred hereunder and, upon the exercise or deemed exercise of such option, the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not already occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled). Administrative Agent shall (except upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency of Seller or Guarantor) give notice to Seller of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable.

b. If Administrative Agent exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Section, (i) Seller’s obligations in such Transactions to repurchase all Purchased Assets, at the Repurchase Price therefor on the Repurchase Date determined in accordance with subparagraph (a) of this Section, shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, (ii) all Income paid after such exercise or deemed exercise shall be retained by Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with Section 7(f) hereof, and (iii) Seller shall immediately deliver to Administrative Agent the Asset Files relating to any Purchased Assets subject to such Transactions then in Seller’s possession or control.

c. Administrative Agent also shall have the right to obtain physical possession, and to commence an action to obtain physical possession, of all Records and files of Seller relating to the Purchased Assets and all documents relating to the Purchased Assets (including, without limitation, any legal, credit or servicing files with respect to the Purchased Assets) which are then or may thereafter come in to the possession of Seller or any third party acting for Seller. To obtain physical possession of any Purchased Assets held by Custodian, Administrative Agent shall present to Custodian a Trust Receipt. Without limiting the rights of Administrative Agent hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to Administrative Agent for Seller’s or Guarantor’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, Seller and Guarantor acknowledge and agree that the remedy at law for any failure to perform obligations hereunder would be inadequate and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies in the event of any such failure. The availability of these remedies shall not prohibit Administrative Agent from pursuing any other remedies for such breach, including the recovery of monetary damages.

d. Administrative Agent shall have the right to direct all servicers then servicing any Purchased Assets to remit all collections thereon to Administrative Agent, and if any such payments are received by Seller, Seller shall not commingle the amounts received with other funds of Seller and shall promptly pay them over to Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall also have the right to terminate any one or all of the servicers then servicing any Purchased Assets with or without cause. In addition, Administrative Agent shall have the right to immediately sell the Purchased Assets and liquidate all Repurchase Assets. Such disposition of Purchased Assets may be, at Administrative Agent’s option, on either a servicing-released or a servicing-retained basis. Administrative Agent shall not be required to give any warranties as to the Purchased Assets with respect to any such disposition thereof. Administrative Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like relating to the Purchased Assets. The foregoing procedure for disposition of the Purchased Assets and liquidation of the Repurchase Assets shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale thereof. Seller agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for Administrative Agent to dispose of the Purchased Assets or the Repurchase Assets or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets similar to the Purchased Assets or the Repurchase Assets, or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to place the Purchased Assets in a pool for issuance of mortgage-backed securities at the then-prevailing price for such securities and to sell such securities for such prevailing price in the open market. Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to sell any or all of such Purchased Assets individually for the prevailing price. Administrative Agent shall also be entitled, in its sole discretion to elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Assets, to give the Seller credit for such Purchased Assets and the Repurchase Assets in an amount equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Assets against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by the Seller hereunder.

e. Upon the happening of one or more Events of Default, Administrative Agent may apply any proceeds from the liquidation of the Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets to the Repurchase Prices hereunder and all other Obligations in accordance with Section 7(f) hereof.

f. Seller shall be liable to Administrative Agent and, without duplication in respect of any such liabilities to the extent incurred by Administrative Agent in exercising any rights or remedies or otherwise performing or enforcing this Agreement or any Program Agreement for the benefit of Buyers, each Buyer for (i) the amount of all reasonable legal or other expenses (including, without limitation, all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and each Buyer in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other agreement evidencing a Transaction, whether in action, suit or litigation or bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding affecting creditors’ rights generally, further including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (including the costs of external counsel of Administrative Agent and Buyers) incurred in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) damages in an amount equal to the cost (including all fees, expenses and commissions) of entering into replacement transactions and entering into or terminating hedge transactions in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, and (iii) any other loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of a Transaction.

g. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Seller shall be liable to Administrative Agent and each Buyer (without duplication) for interest on any amounts owing by Seller hereunder, from the date Seller becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by Seller or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of Administrative Agent’s rights hereunder on behalf of Buyers. Interest on any sum payable by Seller under this Section 16(g) shall be at a rate equal to the Post Default Rate.

h. Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to its rights hereunder, any rights otherwise available to it under any other agreement or applicable law.

i. Administrative Agent may exercise one or more of the remedies available to Administrative Agent immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and, except to the extent provided in subsection (a) of this Section, at any time thereafter without notice to Seller. All rights and remedies arising under this Agreement as amended from time to time hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Administrative Agent may have.

j. Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent to enforce its rights by judicial process. Seller also waives any defense (other than a defense of payment or performance) Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Repurchase Assets, 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.

k. Seller recognizes that Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets. Seller acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to Administrative Agent than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.

17. Reports

a. Notices. Seller or Guarantor shall furnish to Administrative Agent (x) promptly, copies of any material and adverse notices (including, without limitation, notices of defaults, breaches, potential defaults or potential breaches) and any material financial information that is not otherwise required to be provided by Seller hereunder which is given to Seller’s lenders, (y) immediately, notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder or default or breach by Seller or Servicer or Guarantor of any obligation under any Program Agreement or any material contract or agreement of Seller or Servicer or Guarantor or the occurrence of any event or circumstance that such party reasonably expects has resulted in, or will, with the passage of time, result in, a Material Adverse Effect or an Event of Default and (z) the following:

18. Repurchase Transactions

A Buyer may, in its sole election, engage in repurchase transactions (as “seller” thereunder) with any or all of the Purchased Assets and/or Repurchase Assets or pledge, hypothecate, assign, transfer or otherwise convey any or all of the Purchased Assets and/or Repurchase Assets with a counterparty of such Buyer’s choice (such transaction, a “Repledge Transaction”); provided that each counterparty under a Repledge Transaction (each a “Repledgee”) shall not be a Prohibited Assignee. Any Repledge Transaction shall be effected by notice to Administrative Agent, and shall be reflected on the books and records of Administrative Agent. No such Repledge Transaction shall relieve Administrative Agent or such Buyer of its obligations to transfer Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets to Seller (and not substitutions thereof) pursuant to the terms hereof. In the event such Buyer engages in a Repledge Transaction with any of the Purchased Assets or otherwise pledges or hypothecates any of the Purchased Assets, such Buyer shall have the right to assign to such Buyer’s counterparty any of the applicable representations or warranties herein and the remedies for breach thereof, as they relate to the Purchased Assets that are subject to such repurchase transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Repledge Transaction, Seller shall only be required to deal with Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent shall deal exclusively with Seller on behalf of any Repledgee, subject to the terms and conditions hereof. In furtherance, and not by limitation of, the foregoing, it is acknowledged that each Repledgee, is a repledgee as contemplated by Sections 9-207 and 9-623 of the UCC (and the relevant Official Comments thereunder). Administrative Agent and Buyers are each hereby authorized to share any information delivered hereunder with the Repledgee so long as the Repledgee agrees to hold all such information in strict confidence subject to the same exceptions and qualifications as are provided in Section 32 with respect to disclosures by Seller or Guarantor to Administrative Agent and Buyers.

19. Single Agreement

Administrative Agent, Buyers and Seller acknowledge that, and have entered hereunto, and will enter into each Transaction hereunder, in consideration of and in reliance upon the fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and contractual relationship and have been made in consideration of each other. Accordingly, each of Administrative Agent, Buyers and Seller agrees (i) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect of all Transactions hereunder, (ii) that each of them shall be entitled to set-off claims and apply property held by them in respect of any Transaction against obligations owing to them in respect of any other Transactions hereunder and (iii) that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by either of them in respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

20. Notices and Other Communications

Any and all notices (with the exception of Margin Calls which shall be given in accordance with Section 6 and Transaction Request and Confirmations, which shall be delivered via electronic mail or other electronic medium agreed to by Administrative Agent and the Seller), statements, demands or other communications hereunder may be given by a party to the other by mail, messenger or otherwise (including without limitation by electronic mail transmission) to the address specified below, or so sent to such party at any other place specified in a notice of change of address hereafter received by the other. All notices, demands and requests hereunder may be made orally, to be confirmed promptly in writing, or by other communication as specified in the preceding sentence. Notice provided by electronic mail shall be deemed to be given upon transmission so long as an electronic notice of non-transmission is not received. In all cases, to the extent that the related individual set forth in the respective “Attention” line is no longer employed by the respective Person, such notice may be given to the attention of a Responsible Officer of the respective Person or to the attention of such individual or individuals as subsequently notified in writing by a Responsible Officer of the respective Person. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and except for notices given under Section 3 (which shall be effective only on receipt), all such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted electronically or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid.

21. Entire Agreement; Severability

This Agreement shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions. Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.

22. Non assignability

a. The Program Agreements are not assignable by Seller or Guarantor. Subject to Section 36 (Acknowledgement of Assignment and Administration of Repurchase Agreement) hereof, Administrative Agent and Buyers may from time to time assign all or a portion of their rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Program Agreements; provided, however that (i) Administrative Agent shall maintain, solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Seller, for review by Seller upon written request, a register of assignees (the “Register”) and a copy of an executed assignment and acceptance by Administrative Agent and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned; (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Program Agreement, Administrative Agent and each Buyer hereby agrees that, prior to an Event of Default, neither Administrative Agent nor a Buyer shall assign it rights and obligations under the Program Agreements and/or any Transaction to a Prohibited Assignee and (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Program Agreement, in no event shall Administrative Agent assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any other Program Agreement to any Person other than an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent on the date hereof without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

b. The Register shall be available for inspection by Seller at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable notice. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Seller, Guarantor, Administrative Agent and Buyers shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the preceding sentence as a Buyer hereunder. Upon such assignment and recordation in the Register, (a) such assignee shall be a party hereto and to each Program Agreement to the extent of the percentage or portion set forth in the Assignment and Acceptance, and shall succeed to the applicable rights and assume the applicable obligations of Administrative Agent and Buyers hereunder, as applicable, and (b) Administrative Agent and Buyers shall, to the extent that such rights and obligations have been so assigned by them to either (i) an Affiliate of Administrative Agent or Buyers which assumes the obligations of Administrative Agent and Buyers, as applicable or (ii) another Person approved by Sellers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) which assumes the obligations of Administrative Agent and Buyers, as applicable, be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Program Agreements. Any assignment hereunder shall be deemed a joinder of such assignee as a Buyer hereto. Unless otherwise stated in the Assignment and Acceptance, Seller shall continue to take directions solely from Administrative Agent unless otherwise notified by Administrative Agent in writing. Administrative Agent and Buyers may distribute to any prospective or actual assignee any document or other information delivered to Administrative Agent and/or Buyers by Seller, so long as the prospective assignee agrees to hold all such information in strict confidence subject to the same exceptions and qualifications as are provided in Section 32 with respect to disclosures by Seller or Guarantor to Administrative Agent and Buyers.

c. Any Buyer may sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, (i) such Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Buyer shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) the Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Administrative Agent and Buyers in connection with such Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements except as provided in Section 11(e).

d. Seller and Guarantor agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4(e), Section 11(b), and Section 11(e) (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 11(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 11(e)(vii) shall be delivered to the participating Buyer)) to the same extent as if it were a Buyer and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Section 22; provided that such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 11(b) or Section 11(e), with respect to any participation, than its participating Buyer would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in any applicable law or in the interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental Authority that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by applicable law (without regard for the provisions of this sentence, each participant shall also be entitled to the benefits of Section 23 to the same extent as if it had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Section 22.

e. Administrative Agent and each Buyer may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 22, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, as the case may be, any information relating to Seller, Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries or to any aspect of the Transactions that has been furnished to Administrative Agent and Buyers by or on behalf of Seller; provided that such assignee or participant agrees to hold such information subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.

23. Set-off

In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Buyers hereunder and by law, Administrative Agent and Buyers shall have the right, without prior notice to Seller or Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller or Guarantor to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Seller or Guarantor hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount from Seller or Guarantor to Administrative Agent, Buyer or any of their Affiliates any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by a Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Seller or the Guarantor under any other agreement. Administrative Agent agrees promptly to notify Seller and the Guarantor after any such set-off and application made by Administrative Agent; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

24. Binding Effect; Governing Law; Jurisdiction

a. This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns (including any permitted Repledgee). Seller acknowledges that the obligations of Administrative Agent and Buyers hereunder or otherwise are not the subject of any guaranty by, or recourse to, any direct or indirect parent or other Affiliate of Administrative Agent and Buyers. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 and 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

b. EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY. EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PROGRAM AGREEMENTS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING. EACH OF SELLER AND GUARANTOR HEREBY SUBMITS TO, AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THEY MAY HAVE TO, EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PROGRAM AGREEMENTS.

25. No Waivers, Etc.

No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by either party shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any other remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by both of the parties hereto. Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to Section 6(a), 6(b), 16(a) or otherwise, will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date.

26. Intent

a. The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, and a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(38A)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code, and that the pledge of the Repurchase Assets constitutes “a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement” that is “related to” the Agreement and Transactions hereunder within the meaning of Sections 101(38A)(A), 101(47)(A)(v) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code. Seller, Administrative Agent and Buyers further recognize and intend that this Agreement is an agreement to provide financial accommodations and is not subject to assumption pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 365(a).

b. Administrative Agent’s or a Buyer’s right to liquidate the Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with the Transactions hereunder or to accelerate or terminate this Agreement or otherwise exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 16 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate, accelerate or terminate such Transaction as described in Bankruptcy Code Sections 555, 559 and 561; any payments or transfers of property made with respect to this Agreement or any Transaction to satisfy a Margin Deficit shall be considered a “margin payment” as such term is defined in Bankruptcy Code Section 741(5).

c. The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto 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. It is understood 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 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder 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).

e. This Agreement is intended to be a “repurchase agreement” and a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 101(47), Section 555, Section 559 and Section 741 under the Bankruptcy Code.

f. Each party agrees that this Agreement is intended to create mutuality of obligations among the parties, and as such, the Agreement constitutes a contract which (i) is between all of the parties and (ii) places each party in the same right and capacity.

27. Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections

The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

a. in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15 of the 1934 Act, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the SIPA do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

b. in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

c. in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the FDIC or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.

28. Power of Attorney

Seller hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Repurchase Assets without Seller’s signature thereon as Administrative Agent, at its option, may deem appropriate. Seller hereby appoints Administrative Agent as Seller’s agent and attorney-in-fact to (i) execute any such financing statement or statements in Seller’s name and to perform all other acts which Administrative Agent deems appropriate to perfect and continue its ownership interest in and/or the security interest granted hereby, if applicable, and to protect, preserve and realize upon the Repurchase Assets, including, but not limited to, the right to endorse notes, complete blanks in documents, transfer servicing, and sign assignments on behalf of Seller as its agent and attorney-in-fact and (ii) to pay or discharge Taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Repurchase Assets. This agency and power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable without Administrative Agent’s consent. In addition to the foregoing, the Seller agrees to execute a Power of Attorney, in the form of Exhibit C hereto, to be delivered on the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing herein or therein, the power of attorney hereby granted or evidenced by the Power of Attorney may be exercised only during the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default hereunder. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 28.

29. Buyers May Act Through Administrative Agent

Each Buyer has designated the Administrative Agent for the purpose of performing any action hereunder.

30. Indemnification; Obligations; Recourse

a. Each of Seller and Guarantor (without duplication of any obligation of Guarantor under the Guaranty) agrees to hold Administrative Agent, Buyers and each of its respective Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and indemnify each Indemnified Party (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party as the same is incurred) against all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Party relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation, any Program Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby resulting from anything other than the Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 16(f), Seller and Guarantor also agree to reimburse each Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy provided for herein, any Transaction Request and Confirmation and any Program Agreement, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, subject to all other terms and conditions of the Program Agreements. Seller’s and Guarantor’s agreements in this Section 30 shall survive the payment in full of the Repurchase Price and the expiration or termination of this Agreement. Each of Seller and Guarantor hereby acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are recourse obligations of Seller and Guarantor and are not limited to recoveries each Indemnified Party may have with respect to the Purchased Assets. Seller and Guarantor also agree not to assert any claim against Administrative Agent, each Buyer or any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the facility established hereunder, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Transactions, this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereby. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Seller and the Guarantor agree to hold any Indemnified Party harmless from and indemnify such Indemnified Party against all costs with respect to all Purchased Assets relating to or arising out of any taxes incurred or assessed in connection with the ownership of the Purchased Assets, that, in each case, results from anything other than the Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY AND AGREEMENT NOT TO ASSERT CLAIMS EXPRESSLY APPLIES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO THE NEGLIGENCE (BUT NOT GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT) OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 30(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim and in no event shall this Section 30(a) cover any Excluded Taxes or other amounts for which Seller and Guarantor are required to reimburse or indemnify Buyer and Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11(e).

b. Without limitation to the provisions of Section 4 (but without duplication thereof) if any payment of the Repurchase Price of any Transaction (other than Price Differential paid on a Price Differential Payment Date or in respect of any scheduled Balloon Payment or Partial Prepayments at the time required under the related Mortgage Loan Note) is made by Seller other than on the then scheduled Repurchase Date therefor as a result of an acceleration of the Repurchase Date pursuant to Section 16 or for any other reason, Seller shall, upon demand by Administrative Agent, pay to Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers an amount sufficient to compensate Buyers for any actual out-of-pocket losses, costs or expenses that they may reasonably incur as a direct result of such payment on another date.

c. Without limiting the provisions of Section 30(a) hereof, if Seller fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under this Agreement, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of Seller by Administrative Agent (subject to reimbursement by Seller), in its sole discretion.

d. The obligations of the Seller from time to time to pay the Repurchase Price, the Price Differential, and all other amounts due and Obligations owing under this Repurchase Agreement shall be full recourse obligations of the Seller.

31. Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement in Portable Document Format (PDF) or by facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed original counterpart of this Agreement.

32. Confidentiality

a. This Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to Administrative Agent and Buyers and shall be held by Seller and Guarantor in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the written consent of Administrative Agent except for (i) disclosure to Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’, Seller’s or Guarantor’s direct and indirect Affiliates and Subsidiaries, attorneys or accountants, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary and such parties agree to hold all information in strict confidence, (ii) disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body, (iii) to the extent any of the aforementioned proprietary information is in the public domain or (iv) by Seller or Guarantor to investors in Seller or any entity of which Seller is a direct or indirect Subsidiary in accordance with applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Program Agreement, the parties hereto may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, any fact relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) relating to such federal, state and local tax treatment and that may be relevant to understanding such tax treatment; provided that Seller may not disclose the name of or identifying information with respect to Administrative Agent and Buyers or any pricing terms (including, without limitation, the Pricing Rate, Up-Front Fee, Exit Fee, Extension Fee, Purchase Price Percentage and Purchase Price) or other nonpublic business or financial information (including any sublimits and financial covenants) that is unrelated to the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions and is not relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.

b. The information provided by Seller and/or Guarantor pursuant to Sections 17(a)(6) and 17(a)(7) shall be held by Administrative Agent and Buyers in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the written consent of Seller and/or Guarantor, as applicable, except for (i) disclosure to Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’ direct and indirect Affiliates and Subsidiaries, attorneys or accountants, but only to the extent such disclosure is necessary and such parties agree to hold all information in strict confidence, (ii) disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a court or other regulatory body, (iii) to the extent any of the aforementioned information is in the public domain or (iv) by Administrative Agent and Buyers to their investors in accordance with applicable law.

33. Recording of Communications

Administrative Agent, Buyers, Seller and Guarantor shall have the right (but not the obligation) from time to time to make or cause to be made tape recordings of communications between its employees and those of the other party with respect to Transactions. Administrative Agent, Buyers, Seller and Guarantor consent to the admissibility of such tape recordings in any court, arbitration, or other proceedings. The parties agree that a duly authenticated transcript of such a tape recording shall be deemed to be a writing conclusively evidencing the parties’ agreement.

34. Periodic Due Diligence Review

Seller acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Buyers have the right to perform periodic subsequent due diligence reviews with respect to the Seller and the Purchased Assets, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications and updating Market Value determinations, made hereunder, or otherwise, and Seller agrees that upon reasonable (but no less than three (3) Business Days’, or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default one (1) Business Day’s) prior notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to Seller, Administrative Agent, Buyers or their authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the Asset Files and any and all documents, data, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession or under the control of Seller, Guarantor and/or the Custodian. Seller also shall make available to Administrative Agent and Buyers a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Asset Files and the Purchased Assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Administrative Agent and Buyers may purchase Purchased Assets from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Administrative Agent and Buyers in the Purchased Asset Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Administrative Agent or Buyers, at their option, have the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Purchased Assets purchased in a Transaction, including, without limitation, ordering broker’s price opinions, new credit reports and new appraisals on the related Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re-generating the information used to originate such Purchased Asset and reviewing intercreditor agreements, property management agreements, formation documents of the property owners and their direct and indirect owners, financial statements, environmental and engineering reports, underlying title policies including owner’s and UCC-9 title insurance policies, legal opinions and other documents as may be mutually agreed between Seller and Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent or Buyers may underwrite such Purchased Assets itself or engage a mutually agreed upon third party underwriter to perform such underwriting. Seller agrees to cooperate with Administrative Agent, Buyers and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Administrative Agent, Buyers and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession, or under the control, of Seller. Seller further agrees that Seller shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent and Buyers in connection with Administrative Agent’s and Buyers’ activities regarding subsequent due diligence with respect to Purchased Assets pursuant to this Section 34 (“Due Diligence Costs”), but nothing herein shall modify or alter any applicable Asset Due Diligence Cap as set forth in the Pricing Side Letter with respect to due diligence conducted in accordance with Section 3(c) regarding Eligible Assets; provided, however that Seller shall not be responsible for Due Diligence Costs incurred for more than two due diligence reviews per calendar year; provided, further, that such limitation shall not apply to the extent that there is a Margin Call or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

35. Authorizations

Any of the persons whose signatures and titles appear on Schedule 2 are authorized, acting singly, to act for Seller or Administrative Agent to the extent set forth therein, as the case may be, under this Agreement. The Seller may amend Schedule 2 from time to time by delivering a revised Schedule 2 to Administrative Agent and expressly stating that such revised Schedule 2 shall replace the existing Schedule 2.

36. Acknowledgment of Assignment and Administration of Repurchase Agreement.

Pursuant to Section 22 (Non assignability) of this Agreement, Administrative Agent may sell, transfer and convey or allocate certain Purchased Assets and the related Repurchase Assets and related Transactions to certain affiliates of Administrative Agent and/or one or more CP Conduits (the “Additional Buyers”). Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees to the joinder of such Additional Buyers. For the avoidance of doubt, all payments, notices, communications and agreements pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered to, and entered into by, Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Buyers and/or the Repledgees, as applicable. Furthermore, to the extent that Administrative Agent exercises remedies pursuant to this Agreement, any of Administrative Agent and/or any Buyer will have the right to bid on and/or purchase any of the Repurchase Assets pursuant to Section 16 (Remedies Upon Default). The benefit of all representations, rights, remedies and covenants set forth in the Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Administrative Agent and each Buyer and Repledgee, as applicable. All provisions of the Agreement shall survive the transfers contemplated herein (including any Repledge Transactions). Notwithstanding that multiple Buyers may purchase individual Mortgage Loans subject to Transactions entered into under this Agreement, all Transactions shall continue to be deemed a single Transaction and all of the Repurchase Assets shall be security for all of the Obligations hereunder.

37. Documents Mutually Drafted

Seller, Guarantor, Administrative Agent and the Buyers agree that this Agreement and each other Program Agreement prepared in connection with the Transactions set forth herein have been mutually drafted and negotiated by each party, and consequently such documents shall not be construed against either party as the drafter thereof.

38. General Interpretive Principles

For purposes of this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires:

a. the terms defined in this Agreement have the meanings assigned to them in this Agreement and include the plural as well as the singular, and the use of any gender herein shall be deemed to include the other gender;

b. accounting terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

c. references herein to “Articles”, “Sections”, “Subsections”, “Paragraphs”, and other subdivisions without reference to a document are to designated Articles, Sections, Subsections, Paragraphs and other subdivisions of this Agreement;

d. a reference to a Subsection without further reference to a Section is a reference to such Subsection as contained in the same Section in which the reference appears, and this rule shall also apply to Paragraphs and other subdivisions;

e. the words “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision;

f. the term “include” or “including” shall mean without limitation by reason of enumeration;

g. all times specified herein or in any other Program Agreement (unless expressly specified otherwise) are local times in New York, New York unless otherwise stated; and

h. all references herein or in any Program Agreement to "good faith" means good faith as defined in Section 5-102(7) of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York.

39. Specific Performance

Without limiting the rights of Administrative Agent hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to Administrative Agent for Seller’s or Guarantor’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, Seller and Guarantor acknowledge and agree that the remedy at law for any failure to perform obligations hereunder would be inadequate and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies in the event of any such failure. The availability of these remedies shall not prohibit Administrative Agent from pursuing any other remedies for such breach, including the recovery of monetary damages.

40. Conflicts

In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any other Program Agreement, the documents shall control in the following order of priority: first, the terms of the Pricing Side Letter shall prevail, then the terms of this Agreement shall prevail, and then the terms of the other Program Agreements shall prevail.

41. Bankruptcy Non-Petition.

The parties hereby agree that they shall not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, any Buyer that is a CP Conduit any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding, or other proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by the applicable CP Conduit is paid in full.

42. Limited Recourse.

The obligations of each Buyer under this Agreement or any other Program Agreement are solely the corporate obligations of such Buyer. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing by any Buyer under this Agreement, or for the payment by any Buyer of any fee in respect hereof or any other obligation or claim of or against such Buyer arising out of or based on this Agreement, against any stockholder, partner, member, employee, officer, director or incorporator or other authorized person of such Buyer. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the parties agree that all payment obligations of any Buyer that is a CP Conduit under this Agreement shall be limited recourse obligations of such Buyer, payable solely from the funds of such Buyer available for such purpose in accordance with its commercial paper program documents. Each party waives payment of any amount which such Buyer does not pay pursuant to the operation of the preceding sentence until the day which is at least one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note (and waives any “claim” against such Buyer within the meaning of Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief Law for any such insufficiency until such date).

(r) Uniform Commercial Code financing statements have been filed and/or recorded (or, if not filed and/or recorded, have been submitted in proper form for filing and recording), in all public places to the extent necessary, to perfect a valid first priority security interest in all items of personal property located on the Mortgaged Property that are owned by the Mortgagor and either (i) are reasonably necessary to operate the Mortgaged Property or (ii) are (as indicated in the appraisal obtained in connection with the origination of the related Commercial Mortgage Loan) material to the value of the Mortgaged Property (other than any personal property subject to a purchase money security interest or a sale and leaseback financing arrangement permitted under the terms of such Commercial Mortgage Loan 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, and the Mortgages, security agreements, chattel mortgages or equivalent documents related to and delivered in connection with the related Commercial Mortgage Loan establish and create a valid and enforceable lien and priority security interest on such items of personalty, subject to the Standard Qualifications and Title Exceptions.

Schedule 1-5

(v) 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 and meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements, is in an amount (subject to a customary deductible) at least equal to the lesser of (i) the replacement cost of improvements, furniture, fixtures, furnishings and equipment owned by Mortgagor and located on such Mortgaged Property, or (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Commercial Mortgage Loan, and in any event, the amount necessary to prevent operation of any co-insurance provisions; and is also covered by business interruption or rental loss insurance, in an amount (subject to the customary deductible and except where an applicable tenant lease does not permit the tenant to ▇▇▇▇▇ rent under any circumstances) at least equal to 12 months of operations of the related Mortgaged Property, all of which was in full force and effect with respect to the related Mortgaged Property; and all insurance coverage required under the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, which insurance covers such risks and is in such amounts as are customarily acceptable to prudent commercial and multifamily mortgage lending institutions lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property in the jurisdiction in which such Mortgaged Property is located, is in full force and effect with respect to the related Mortgaged Property; all premiums due and payable are current and have been paid (or have been financed or are being paid currently in installments); and no notice of termination or cancellation with respect to any such insurance policy has been received by Seller; and except for certain amounts not greater than amounts which would be considered prudent by an institutional commercial and/or multifamily mortgage lender with respect to a similar Commercial Mortgage Loan and which are set forth in the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, any insurance proceeds in respect of a casualty loss or condemnation awards, will be applied either (i) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with respect to all property losses (and, with respect to all insurance proceeds, all property losses in excess of 5% (or such other fixed percentage as shall be expressly indicated in the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents for the related Mortgaged Property) of the then outstanding principal amount of the related Commercial Mortgage Loan, the mortgagee (or a trustee appointed by it) having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as the repair or restoration progresses, or (ii) the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of the Commercial Mortgage Loan, subject in either case to requirements with respect to leases at the related Mortgaged Property and to other exceptions customarily provided for by prudent institutional lenders for similar loans. The Mortgaged Property is also covered by comprehensive general liability insurance against claims for personal and bodily injury, death or property damage occurring on, in or about the related Mortgaged Property, in an amount customarily required by prudent institutional lenders. An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of the Mortgaged Properties located in seismic zone 3 or 4 in order to evaluate the structural and seismic condition of such property, for the sole purpose of assessing the probable maximum loss (“PML”) for the Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a 475 year look back with a 10% probability of exceedance in a 50 year period. If the resulting report concluded that the PML would exceed 20% of the amount of the replacement costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements. If the Mortgaged Property is located in Florida or within 25 miles of the coast of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina or South Carolina such Mortgaged Property is insured by windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or “named storms” insurance issued by an insurer meeting the Insurance Rating Requirements or endorsement covering damage from windstorm and/or windstorm related perils and/or named storms in an amount at least equal to the lesser of (i) the outstanding principal balance of such Commercial Mortgage Loan, (ii) 100% of the full insurable value, or 100% of the replacement cost, of the improvements located on the related Mortgaged Property, or (iii) such other amounts (expressly indicated in the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents) as shall not be less than limits which would be considered prudent by an institutional commercial and/or multifamily mortgage lender with respect to a Commercial Mortgage Loan in the amount of the Commercial Mortgage Loan and secured by property similar to the Mortgaged Property.

Schedule 1-6

The insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the mortgagee of the Commercial Mortgage Loan, its successors and assigns as loss payee, in the case of a property insurance policy, and additional insured in the case of a liability insurance policy and provide that they are not terminable without 30 days prior written notice to such mortgagee (or, with respect to non-payment, 10 days prior written notice to such mortgagee) or such lesser period as prescribed by applicable law. Each Mortgage requires that the Mortgagor maintain insurance as described above or permits the mortgagee of the Commercial Mortgage Loan to require insurance as substantially described above, and permits such mortgagee to purchase such insurance at the Mortgagor’s expense if Mortgagor fails to do so.

(w) (i) Other than payments due but not yet 30 days or more delinquent, there is no material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note or the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, and no event has occurred (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, and (ii) Seller has not waived any material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under such Mortgage or Mortgage Note or the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, which in the case of either (i) or (ii), materially and adversely affects the value of the Commercial Mortgage Loan or the value, use or operation of the related Mortgaged Property. Pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and other documents in the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents no Person or party other than the holder or Servicer of such Mortgage Note may declare any event of default or accelerate the related indebtedness under such Mortgage, Mortgage Note or Commercial Mortgage Loan documents.

(x) The Commercial Mortgage Loan is not past due in respect of any scheduled payment or part thereof and such Commercial Mortgage Loan has not, since origination, been thirty (30) days or more past due in respect of any scheduled payment or part thereof. The Commercial Mortgage Loan documents do not provide for any grace period in excess of ten (10) calendar days with respect to delinquent scheduled payments.

Schedule 1-7

(y) No related Mortgage provides for or permits, without the prior written consent of the holder of the Mortgage Note, the related Mortgaged Property to secure any other promissory note or obligation except as expressly described in such Mortgage.

(z) To Seller’s knowledge, the Commercial Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code (but determined without regard to the rule in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that treats certain defective mortgage loans as qualified mortgages), and, accordingly, either: (A) such Commercial Mortgage Loan is secured by an interest in real property (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.856-3(c) and 1.856-3(d)) having a fair market value (1) at the date the Commercial Mortgage Loan was originated at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Commercial Mortgage Loan on such date or (2) at the Purchase Date at least equal to 80% of the adjusted issue price of the Commercial Mortgage Loan on such date, provided that for purposes hereof, the fair market value of the real property interest must first be reduced by (x) the amount of any lien on the real property interest that is senior to the Commercial Mortgage Loan and (y) a proportionate amount of any lien on the real property interest that is in parity with the Commercial Mortgage Loan; or (B) substantially all of the proceeds of such Commercial Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the real property which served as the only security for such Commercial Mortgage Loan (other than a recourse feature or other third-party credit enhancement within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1)(ii)). If the Commercial Mortgage Loan was “significantly modified” prior to the Purchase Date so as to result in a taxable exchange under Section 1001 of the Code, it either (x) was so modified as a result of the default or reasonably foreseeable default of such Commercial Mortgage Loan or (y) meets the requirements described in sub-clause (A)(1) above (substituting the date of the last such modification for the date the Commercial Mortgage Loan was originated) or sub-clause (A)(2) above. Any prepayment premium and yield maintenance charges applicable to the Commercial Mortgage Loan constitute “customary prepayment penalties” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2). All terms used in this paragraph shall have the same meanings as set forth in the related Treasury Regulations.

Schedule 1-8

Except as set forth in the Environmental Site Assessment, there is no Environmental Condition (as such term is defined in ASTM E1527-05 or its successor) at the related Mortgaged Property.

(bb) Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases, together with applicable state law, contains customary and enforceable provisions for comparable mortgage loan documents encumbering comparable mortgaged properties similarly situated such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure, subject to the Standard Qualifications.

(cc) To Seller’s knowledge, neither the Mortgaged Property nor any portion thereof, is the subject of, and no Mortgagor is a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

(dd) Such Commercial Mortgage Loan is a whole loan and contains no equity participation by the lender or shared appreciation feature and does not provide for any contingent or additional interest in the form of participation in the cash flow of the related Mortgaged Property or provide for negative amortization. Seller does not hold an equity interest in the direct or any indirect owner in such related Mortgagor.

Schedule 1-9

(ee) Subject to certain exceptions, which are customarily acceptable to prudent commercial and multifamily mortgage lending institutions lending on the security of property comparable to the related Mortgaged Property, the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents contain provisions for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Commercial Mortgage Loan if, without complying with the requirements of the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, (i) the related Mortgaged Property, or any controlling equity interest (as such term is defined in the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents) in the related Mortgagor, is directly or indirectly transferred or sold (other than by reason of family and estate planning transfers, transfers by devise, descent or operation of law upon the death of a member, general partner or shareholder of the related borrower and transfers of less than a controlling equity interest (as such term is defined in the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents) in a Mortgagor, issuance of non-controlling new equity interests, transfers to certain affiliates, a specific Person, or a Person satisfying specific criteria, as expressly permitted in the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, transfers in connection with the enforcement of any mezzanine debt that existed at origination of the related Commercial Mortgage Loan or is permitted under the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, transfers among existing members, partners or shareholders in the Mortgagor or affiliates thereof, transfers among affiliated Mortgagors with respect to Commercial Mortgage Loans which are cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with other mortgage loans or multi-property Commercial Mortgage Loans or transfers of a nature similar to the foregoing meeting the requirements of the Commercial Mortgage Loan (such as pledges of ownership interests that do not result in a change of control) or a substitution or release of collateral within the parameters of paragraph (hh) below), or (ii) the related Mortgaged Property or controlling equity interest (as such term is defined in the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents) in the Mortgagor is encumbered in connection with subordinate financing by a lien or security interest against the related Mortgaged Property. The Commercial Mortgage Loan documents require the Mortgagor to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Mortgagor with respect to any transfer, assumption or encumbrance requiring lender’s approval.

(ff) Except as set forth in the related Complete Submission, the terms of the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents have not been waived, modified, altered, satisfied, impaired, canceled, subordinated or rescinded in any manner which materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, and no such waiver, modification, alteration, satisfaction, impairment, cancellation, subordination or rescission has occurred since the date upon which the Complete Submission for such Commercial Mortgage Loan were delivered to Administrative Agent or its designee.

(gg) Each related Mortgaged Property was inspected (i) by or on behalf of the related originator during the 12 month period prior to the related origination date or (ii) if Seller or an Affiliate did not originate the Commercial Mortgage Loan, by or on behalf of Seller or an Affiliate on or after the date that is 6 months prior to the date that Seller acquired the Commercial Mortgage Loan.

Schedule 1-10

(hh) The terms of the related Mortgage or related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents do not provide for release of any material portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except (a) a partial release, accompanied by principal repayment, or partial defeasance, of not less than a specified percentage at least equal to the lesser of (i) 110% of the related allocated loan amount of such portion of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (b) upon payment in full of such Commercial Mortgage Loan, (c) upon a defeasance, (d) releases of out parcels that are unimproved or other portions of the Mortgaged Property which will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the Mortgaged Property and which were not afforded any material value in the appraisal obtained at the origination of the Commercial Mortgage Loan and are not necessary for physical access to the Mortgaged Property or compliance with zoning requirements, or (e) as required pursuant to an order of condemnation or taking by a state or any political subdivision or authority thereof. With respect to any partial release under the preceding clauses (a) or (d), either: (x) such release of collateral (i) would not constitute a “significant modification” of the subject Commercial Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G 2(b)(2) and (ii) would not cause the subject Commercial Mortgage Loan to fail to be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code; or (y) the mortgagee or servicer can, in accordance with the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, condition such release of collateral on the related Mortgagor’s delivery of an opinion of tax counsel to the effect specified in the immediately preceding clause (x). For purposes of the preceding clause (x), for all Commercial Mortgage Loans originated after December 6, 2010, if the fair market value of the real property constituting such Mortgaged Property after the release is not equal to at least 80% of the principal balance of the Commercial Mortgage Loan outstanding after the release, the Mortgagor is required to make a payment of principal in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions.

With respect to any partial release under the preceding clause (e), for all Commercial Mortgage Loans originated after December 6, 2010, the Mortgagor can be required to pay down the principal balance of the Commercial Mortgage Loan in an amount not less than the amount required by the REMIC Provisions and, to such extent, may not be required to be applied to the restoration of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor, if, immediately after the release of such portion of the Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage (but taking into account the planned restoration) the fair market value of the real property constituting the remaining Mortgaged Property is not equal to at least 80% of the remaining principal balance of the Commercial Mortgage Loan.

No Commercial Mortgage Loan that is secured by more than one Mortgaged Property or that is cross collateralized with another Commercial Mortgage Loan permits the release of cross collateralization of the related Mortgaged Properties, other than in compliance with the REMIC Provisions.

(ii) To seller’s knowledge based solely on the zoning report for the Mortgaged Property, there are no material violations of any applicable zoning ordinances, building codes or land laws applicable to the Mortgaged Property or the use and occupancy thereof which (i) are not insured by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy (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), or its equivalent as adopted in the applicable jurisdiction, or a law and ordinance insurance policy or (ii) as determined by Seller at the time of origination and based upon reasonable underwriting guidelines utilized by Seller in the ordinary course of business, would have a material adverse effect on the value, operation or net operating income of the Mortgaged Property. The Commercial Mortgage Loan documents require the Mortgaged Property to comply with all applicable laws and ordinances in all material respects.

Schedule 1-11

(jj) None of the material improvements which were included for the purposes of determining the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of the Commercial Mortgage Loan lies outside of the boundaries and building restriction lines of such property (except any encroachments to such boundaries and building restriction lines which constitute legal non-conformities), to an extent which would have a material adverse effect on the value of the Mortgaged Property or the related Mortgagor’s use and operation of such Mortgaged Property (unless affirmatively covered by title insurance) and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon such Mortgaged Property except for encroachments that do not have any material adverse effect on the Mortgagor, the Commercial Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, to the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property (unless affirmatively covered by title insurance) and no material improvements encroach upon any easements except for encroachments that do not have any material adverse effect on the Mortgagor, the Commercial Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, to the value or current use of such Mortgaged Property (unless affirmatively covered by title insurance).

(ll) No advance of funds has been made other than pursuant to the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents included in the Asset File, directly or indirectly, by the mortgagee, Seller, the Servicer or any prior servicer to the Mortgagor and no funds have been received from any Person other than the Mortgagor or its property manager, for or on account of payments due on the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage (other than amounts paid by the tenant into a lender-controlled lockbox as specifically required under a related lease).

(mm) To Seller’s knowledge, there is no pending or filed action, suit or proceeding, arbitration or governmental investigation of which mortgagee, Seller, the Servicer or any prior servicer, has received written notice or other written evidence, against the Mortgagor, any guarantor or other party liable for all or a part of the obligations under the Commercial Mortgage Loan, or the related Mortgaged Property the adverse outcome of which could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect (i) such Mortgagor’s title to the related Mortgaged Property, (ii) the validity or enforceability of the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, (iii) such Mortgagor’s ability to perform under the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, (iv) such guarantor’s ability to perform under the related guaranty, (v) the security intended to be provided by the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, (vi) the current use of the related Mortgaged Property, or (vii) the validity or enforceability of the related Mortgage.

Schedule 1-12

(nn) If the related Mortgage is a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has either been properly designated and is currently serving under and is named in such Mortgage or has been substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law or may be substituted in accordance with the Mortgage and applicable law.

(oo) The Commercial Mortgage Loan and the interest (exclusive of any default interest, late charges, yield maintenance charges, or prepayment premiums) contracted for complies with, or is exempt from, applicable state or federal laws, regulations and other requirements pertaining to usury.

(pp) Each Commercial Mortgage Loan that is cross-collateralized is cross-collateralized only with other Commercial Mortgage Loans that (i) have been disclosed in writing to Administrative Agent, and (ii) are subject to Transactions under this Agreement as of the Purchase Date and at all times when any one of such Commercial Mortgage Loans is a Purchased Asset.

(qq) The improvements located on the related Mortgaged Property are either not located in a federally designated special flood hazard area or, if so located, the related Mortgagor is required to maintain or the mortgagee maintains, flood insurance with respect to such improvements and such policy is in full force and effect in an amount no less than the least of (i) the original principal balance of the Commercial Mortgage Loan, (ii) the value of such improvements on the related Mortgaged Property located in such flood hazard area or (iii) the maximum allowed under the related federal flood insurance program.

(rr) All escrows required (if any) pursuant to the Commercial Mortgage Loan required to be currently deposited with the Servicer or any prior Servicer, or by any Mortgagor or by any prior Mortgagor, in accordance with the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents have been so deposited, are in the possession, or under the control of Seller or Servicer or its agent, and there are no deficiencies in connection therewith (subject to any applicable notice and cure period).

(ss) The Commercial Mortgage Loan documents require the Mortgagor to maintain or cause to be maintained all such licenses, permits, certificates of occupancy, and authorizations as are necessary for the conduct of its business in the ordinary course and as contemplated by such Commercial Mortgage Loan documents. To Seller’s knowledge, all such material licenses, permits, certificates of occupancy, and applicable governmental authorizations have been obtained and are in effect. The Commercial Mortgage Loan documents require the related Mortgagor to be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.

(tt) The origination, servicing and collection practices used by Seller (and the related originator if Seller was not the originator) with respect to each Commercial Mortgage Loan have been, in all material respects, legal and as of the date of its origination and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, such Commercial 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 Commercial Mortgage Loan.

Schedule 1-13

(uu) Except for Mortgagors under Commercial Mortgage Loans the Mortgaged Property with respect to which includes a Ground Lease, the related Mortgagor (or its affiliate) has title in the fee simple interest in each related Mortgaged Property.

(vv) The Commercial Mortgage Loan documents for each Commercial Mortgage Loan provide (or have substantially similar language providing) that such Commercial Mortgage Loan (i) becomes full recourse to the Mortgagor and a guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities, distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that has assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis) in any of the following events: (A) if any voluntary petition for bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation pursuant to federal bankruptcy law, or any similar federal or state law, shall be filed by the Mortgagor; (B) Mortgagor or guarantor shall have colluded with (or, alternatively, solicited or caused to be solicited) other creditors to cause an involuntary bankruptcy filing with respect to the Mortgagor or (C) any transfer in violation of transfer restrictions set forth in the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents; and (ii) contains provisions providing for recourse against the Mortgagor and a guarantor (which is a natural person or persons, or an entity or entities distinct from the Mortgagor (but may be affiliated with the Mortgagor) that has assets other than equity in the related Mortgaged Property that are not de minimis), for losses and damages sustained by reason of Mortgagor’s: (A) misappropriation of rents after the occurrence of an event of default under the Commercial Mortgage Loan; (B) misappropriation of (x) insurance proceeds or condemnation awards or (y) security deposits or, alternatively, the failure of any security deposits to be delivered to mortgagee upon foreclosure or action in lieu thereof (except to the extent applied in accordance with leases prior to a Commercial Mortgage Loan event of default); (C) fraud or intentional material misrepresentation; (D) breaches of the environmental covenants in the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents; (E) commission of intentional material physical waste at the Mortgaged Property; or (F) after an event of default under the underlying Mortgage Loan (after the expiration of any applicable notice or cure periods, if any) that results in lender accelerating the indebtedness, and after exercising remedies against the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor or any guarantor intentionally interferes for the sake of delay with lender’s exercise of remedies under the related Mortgage, except for such interference solely related to compulsory counterclaims or colorable defenses brought in good faith.

(ww) Subject to Standard Qualifications, Title Exceptions and applicable law, upon possession of the Mortgaged Property as required under applicable state law, any Assignment of Leases set forth in the Mortgage or separate from the related Mortgage and related to and delivered in connection with such Commercial Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable lien and security interest in the related Mortgagor’s interest in all leases, subleases, licenses or other agreements with Mortgagor pursuant to which any Person is entitled to occupy, use or possess all or any portion of the real property.

Schedule 1-14

(xx) If such Commercial Mortgage Loan contains a provision for any defeasance of mortgage collateral, such Commercial Mortgage Loan permits defeasance (1) no earlier than two years after the date of origination of such Commercial Mortgage Loan and (2) only with substitute collateral constituting “government securities” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(8)(i) in an amount sufficient to make all scheduled payments under the Mortgage Note through the related maturity date (or first day of the open period). Such Commercial Mortgage Loan was not originated with the intent to collateralize a REMIC offering with obligations that are not real estate mortgages. In addition, if such Mortgage contains such a defeasance provision, it provides (or otherwise contains provisions pursuant to which the holder can require) that an opinion be provided to the effect that such holder has a first priority security interest in the defeasance collateral. The related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents permit the lender to charge all of its expenses (subject in certain cases to a cap on such expenses) associated with a defeasance to the Mortgagor (including rating agencies’ fees, accounting fees and attorneys’ fees), and provide that the related Mortgagor must deliver (or otherwise, the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents contain certain provisions pursuant to which the lender can require) (a) an accountant’s certification as to the adequacy of the defeasance collateral to make payments under the related Commercial Mortgage Loan through the related maturity date (or first day of the open period), (b) an opinion of counsel that the defeasance complies with all applicable REMIC Provisions, and (c) assurances from each applicable rating agency that the defeasance will not result in the withdrawal, downgrade or qualification of the ratings assigned to any certificates backed by the related Commercial Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, some of the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents may not affirmatively contain all such requirements, but such requirements are effectively present in such documents due to the general obligation to comply with the REMIC Provisions and/or deliver a REMIC opinion of counsel.

(yy) The originator of such Commercial Mortgage Loan was authorized to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located at all times when it originated and held the Commercial Mortgage Loan, and as of the date that such entity held the Mortgage Note, each holder of the Mortgage Note was authorized to originate, acquire and/or hold (as applicable) the Mortgage Note 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 Commercial Mortgage Loan.

(zz) Neither Seller nor any affiliate thereof has any obligation to make any capital contributions to the Mortgagor under the Commercial Mortgage Loan.

(aaa) To Seller’s knowledge based solely on the title report for the Mortgaged Property, the related Mortgaged Property is not encumbered, and none of the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents permits the related Mortgaged Property to be encumbered, without the prior written consent of the holder of such Commercial Mortgage Loan, by any lien other than the lien of such Commercial Mortgage Loan and Title Exceptions.

(bbb) Each related Mortgaged Property constitutes one or more complete separate tax lots which do not include any property which is not part of the Mortgaged Property (or the related Mortgagor has covenanted to obtain separate tax lots and a Person has indemnified the mortgagee for any loss suffered in connection therewith or an escrow of funds in an amount sufficient to pay taxes resulting from a breach thereof has been established), or is subject to an endorsement under the related title insurance policy which insures against any loss resulting therefrom.

(ccc) The related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents require the Mortgagor to provide the mortgagee with certain financial information at regular intervals specified under the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, which in all cases shall include at least the following: (i) annual operating statements; (ii) annual financial statements; and (iii) annual rent rolls.

Schedule 1-15

(ddd) To Seller’s knowledge based solely on the title report and survey for the Mortgaged Property, each Mortgaged Property (i) 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, and (ii) is served by or has uninhibited access rights to public or private water (or well) and sewer (or septic) and all required utilities, all of which are appropriate for the current use of the Mortgaged Property.

(eee) Each Mortgaged Property is free and clear of any and all mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens that are prior or equal to the lien of the related Mortgage, and no rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to any such lien that would be prior or equal to the lien of the related Mortgage except, in each case, for noted Title Exceptions that are bonded over, or escrowed for as provided in the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents or the applicable Title Policy.

(fff) The Mortgaged Property is a real property type that is an office building, a retail property, a multi-family property, a self-storage property, a manufactured housing community, a hotel or an industrial property.

(ggg) With respect to any Commercial Mortgage Loan where the Commercial 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:

(i) 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 (or, if consent of the lessor thereunder is required, it has been obtained prior to the Purchase Date) and does not restrict the use of the related Mortgaged Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a manner that would materially and adversely affect the security provided by the related Mortgage. No material change in the terms of the Ground Lease has occurred since the origination of the Commercial Mortgage Loan, except as reflected in any written instruments which are included in the related Asset File.

(ii) The lessor under such Ground Lease has agreed in a writing included in the related Asset 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 holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan, and any such action without such consent is not binding on the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan, its successors or assigns, except termination or cancellation if (i) an event of default occurs under the Ground Lease, (ii) notice thereof is provided to the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan and (iii) such default is curable by the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan as provided in the Ground Lease but remains uncured beyond the applicable cure period.

Schedule 1-16

(iii) To Seller’s knowledge, such Ground Lease is in full force and effect, there is no material default under such Ground Lease, and there is no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material default under such Ground Lease.

(iv) The Ground Lease or ancillary agreement between the lessor and the lessee requires the lessor to give notice of any default by the lessee to the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan. The Ground Lease or ancillary agreement further provides that no notice given is effective against the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan unless a copy has been given to the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan in a manner described in the Ground Lease or ancillary agreement.

(v) To Seller’s knowledge based solely on the title report for the Mortgaged Property, the Ground Lease (i) is not subject to any liens or encumbrances superior to, or of equal priority with, the Mortgage, subject, however, to only the ground lessor’s fee interest and the Title Exceptions or (ii) is subject to a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement to which the mortgagee of the lessor’s fee interest in the Mortgaged Property is subject.

(vi) The holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan is permitted a reasonable opportunity (including, where necessary, sufficient time to gain possession of the interest of the lessee under the Ground Lease) to cure any curable default under such Ground Lease after the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan’s receipt of notice of any default before the lessor thereunder may terminate such Ground Lease.

(vii) Such Ground Lease has an original term (together with any extension options, whether or not currently exercised, set forth therein all of which can be exercised by the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan if the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan acquires the lessee’s rights under the Ground Lease) that extends not less than twenty (20) years beyond the stated maturity date of such Commercial Mortgage Loan (or ten (10) years in the case of a fully-amortizing Commercial Mortgage Loan).

(viii) Under the terms of such Ground Lease and/or in any writing included in the related Asset File, including any estoppel or consent letter received by the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan from the lessor, and the related Mortgage, taken together, any related insurance proceeds or condemnation award allocable to Ground Lessee’s interest (other than a de minimis amount for minor casualties in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking) will be applied either to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, or to the payment or defeasance of the outstanding principal balance of the Commercial Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest (except in cases where a different allocation would not be viewed as commercially unreasonable by any commercial mortgage lender, taking into account the relative duration of the Ground Lease and the related Mortgage and the ratio of the market value of the related Mortgaged Property to the outstanding principal balance of such Commercial Mortgage Loan).

Schedule 1-17

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

(x) The Ground Lease does not place commercially unreasonable restrictions on the identity of the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan, and the Ground Lease is assignable to the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of the lessor thereunder (provided that proper notice is delivered to the extent required in accordance with such Ground Lease), and in the event it is so assigned, it is further assignable by the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan and its successors and assigns without the consent of (but with prior notice to) the lessor.

(xi) There are no commercially unreasonable restrictions on the subletting of such Mortgaged Property in such Ground Lease.

(xii) In the case of a total or substantially total taking or loss, under the terms of such Ground Lease and/or in any writing included in the related Asset File, including any estoppel or consent letter received by the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan from the lessor, and the related Mortgage, taken together, any related insurance proceeds or condemnation award allocable to Ground Lessee’s interest (other than a de minimis amount for minor casualties in respect of a total or substantially total loss or taking) in respect of a total or substantially total taking or loss to the extent not applied to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Mortgaged Property, with the holder of the Commercial Mortgage Loan or a trustee appointed by it having the right to hold and disburse such proceeds as repair or restoration progresses, will be applied first to the payment or defeasance of the outstanding principal balance of the Commercial Mortgage Loan, together with any accrued interest (except in cases where a different allocation would not be viewed as commercially unreasonable by any commercial mortgage lender, taking into account the relative duration of the Ground Lease and the related Mortgage and the ratio of the market value of the related Mortgaged Property to the outstanding principal balance of such Commercial Mortgage Loan).

(hhh) The Mortgagor under such Commercial Mortgage Loan is not an Affiliate of Seller.

(iii) Except as disclosed in the Summary Diligence Materials delivered to Administrative Agent and previous intercompany transfers, no Commercial Mortgage Loan has been acquired by an Affiliate of Seller other than a direct parent of Seller.

Schedule 1-18

(jjj) 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. Except as disclosed in writing to Administrative Agent, no Commercial Mortgage Loan has a Mortgagor that is an affiliate of another Mortgagor under another Commercial Mortgage Loan that is also a Purchased Asset.

(kkk) 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 Commercial Mortgage Loans.

(lll) There exists as part of the related Asset File an Assignment of Leases (either as a separate instrument or incorporated into the related Mortgage). Subject to the Title Exceptions, each related Assignment of Leases creates a valid collateral assignment of, or a valid 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, subject to applicable law, provides that, upon an event of default under the Commercial 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.

(mmm) 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 Commercial Mortgage Loan, the related Commercial 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; 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 Commercial 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 200% of the amount of the insurance premium that is payable at such time in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related Asset File (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance), 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.

(nnn) Pursuant to the terms of the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, Seller satisfied any transfer conditions or requirements (or such conditions or requirements were validly waived by any requisite parties) in the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents with respect to the pledge of the Commercial Mortgage Loan to Administrative Agent and the transfer of the Commercial Mortgage Loan to Administrative Agent.

Schedule 1-19

(ooo) All post-closing obligations due under the Commercial Mortgage Loan have been satisfied except as disclosed by Seller and agreed upon by Buyer.

(ppp) [Reserved].

(qqq) [Reserved].

(rrr) To Seller’s knowledge, at all times that Seller has been a holder of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note, including after giving effect to any transfers permitted pursuant to the related Commercial Mortgage Loan documents, (a) none of the funds or other assets of any Mortgagor, guarantor or other indemnitor shall constitute property of, or shall be beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any Person subject to trade restrictions under United States law, including, but not limited to, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. §§ 1701 et seq., The Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq., and any Executive Orders or regulations promulgated under any such United States laws (each, an “Embargoed Person”), with the result that the Purchased Asset made by the related originator is or would be in violation of law, (b) no Embargoed Person shall have any interest of any nature whatsoever in any Mortgagor, guarantor or other indemnitor, with the result that the Purchased Asset is or would be in violation of law, and (c) none of the funds of any Mortgagor or guarantor or other indemnitor shall be derived from any unlawful activity with the result that the Purchased Asset is or would be in violation of law. No Mortgagor, guarantor or other indemnitor is a Person with whom Seller is restricted from doing business under regulations of the OFAC (including those persons named on OFAC’s Specially Designated and Blocked Persons list) or under any statute, executive order (including the September 24, 2001 #13224 Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism), or other governmental action and no such Mortgagor, guarantor or other indemnitor is or shall knowingly engage in any dealings or transactions with such Persons.

(sss) The Asset File delivered by Seller with respect to such Commercial Mortgage Loan on the Purchase Date thereof (or as otherwise required by the Custodial Agreement) (i) represents a true and correct copy of the documents contained therein and each Purchased Asset Schedule, together with all other information contained therein prepared by Seller or its respective Affiliates and delivered by Seller to Administrative Agent immediately prior to the Purchase Date, and the related Purchased Asset Schedule is true and correct, (ii) conforms in all material respects to the Summary Diligence Materials previously provided to Administrative Agent and pursuant to which Administrative Agent has elected to enter into the Transaction, and (iii) constitutes all material loan documents evidencing and/or securing the Commercial Mortgage Loan and the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents have not been materially amended or modified except as set forth in the Commercial Mortgage Loan documents contained in the Asset File delivered by Seller.
