3. Program; Initiation of Transactions
a. From time to time, Buyer shall purchase from Seller certain Eligible Assets that have been purchased and/or originated by Seller. All Purchased Assets shall be serviced by Servicer subject to the Buyer’s rights herein or in the Servicing Agreement. The aggregate Purchase Price of Purchased Assets subject to outstanding Transactions shall not exceed the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price.
b. With respect to each Transaction Seller shall give Buyer and Custodian (and, following the occurrence of a Backup Servicing Trigger Event, the Backup Servicer) at least five (5) Business Days’ prior notice of any proposed Purchase
-24-
Date (the date on which such notice is given, the “Notice Date”). On the Notice Date, Seller shall (i) request that Buyer enter into a Transaction by furnishing to Buyer (and, following the occurrence of a Backup Servicing Trigger Event, the Backup Servicer) a Transaction Request and Confirmation (with respect to each Eligible Asset) accompanied by a Complete Submission and (ii) deliver to Buyer and Custodian (and, following the occurrence of a Backup Servicing Trigger Event, the Backup Servicer) a proposed Purchased Asset Schedule. In the event the Purchased Asset Schedule provided by Seller contains erroneous computer data, is not formatted properly or the computer fields are otherwise improperly aligned, Buyer shall provide written or electronic notice to Seller describing such error and Seller shall correct the computer data, reformat the Eligible Assets or properly align the computer fields. The Seller shall hold Buyer harmless for such correction, reformatting or realigning, as applicable.
c. With respect to each Exception Asset, upon receipt of the Transaction Request, Buyer shall, consistent with this Agreement, specify the terms for such proposed Transaction, including the Purchase Price, the Pricing Rate, the Market Value and the Repurchase Date in respect of such Transaction. The terms thereof shall be set forth in the Transaction Request and Confirmation to be delivered to Seller on or prior to the Purchase Date.
d. With respect to each Exception Asset, the Transaction Request and Confirmation, together with this Agreement, shall constitute conclusive evidence of the terms agreed between Buyer and Seller with respect to the Transaction to which the Transaction Request and Confirmation relates, and Seller’s acceptance of the related proceeds shall constitute Seller’s agreement to the terms of such Transaction Request and Confirmation. It is the intention of the parties that, with respect to each Exception Asset, each Transaction Request and Confirmation shall not be separate from this Agreement but shall be made a part of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and, with respect to each Exception Asset, a Transaction Request and Confirmation, the terms of the Transaction Request and Confirmation shall control with respect to the related Transaction.
e. Following receipt of a Transaction Request and Confirmation and a Complete Submission, Buyer shall, as hereinafter provided, inform Seller of its election to purchase any Eligible Assets proposed to be sold to Buyer by Seller hereunder. Buyer shall have the right to review all Eligible Assets proposed to be sold to Buyer and conduct its own due diligence investigation of such Eligible Assets as Buyer determines. Buyer shall conduct its diligence review within the following time frame beginning on the Business Day following receipt of the Complete Submission: in the case of a proposed Transaction of (i) up to five (5) Eligible Assets, ten (10) Business Days; (ii) more than five (5) but no more than twenty-five (25) Eligible Assets, twenty (20) Business Days, and (iii) more than twenty-five (25) Eligible Assets, a time frame to be mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Seller. If, with respect to any Eligible Asset, Buyer does not respond to Seller within the time frames specified in the preceding sentence, Buyer shall be deemed
-25-
to have elected not to purchase such Eligible Asset. Upon completion of its review, Buyer shall in its sole discretion determine whether to purchase such Eligible Assets and consistent with this Agreement, confirm the terms for such proposed Transaction, including the Purchase Price or Purchase Price Increase, Purchase Price Percentage, the Asset Value, the Pricing Rate, and the Repurchase Date for such Transaction. The terms thereof shall be set forth in the Transaction Request and Confirmation signed by the Seller, and countersigned by Buyer, to be returned to Seller on or prior to the Purchase Date. To the extent any term in the Transaction Request and Confirmation is incomplete, inconsistent with, or otherwise adds terms to the agreement, or to the extent Buyer chooses not to enter into a Transaction pursuant to Section 3f below, the Buyer shall have no obligation to execute and/or deliver the Transaction Request and Confirmation to the Seller.
f. Upon the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 10 hereof, all of Seller’s interest in the Repurchase Assets shall pass to Buyer on the Purchase Date, against the transfer of the Purchase Price or Purchase Price Increase to Seller. Upon transfer of the Purchased Assets to Buyer as set forth in this Section and until termination of any related Transactions as set forth in Sections 4 or 16 of this Agreement, ownership of each Purchased Asset, including each document in the related Asset File and Records, is vested in Buyer; provided that, prior to the recordation by the Custodian as provided for in the Custodial Agreement record title in the name of Seller to each Purchased Asset (other than with respect to Securities) shall be retained by Seller in trust, for the benefit of Buyer, for the sole purpose of facilitating the servicing and the supervision of the servicing of the Purchased Assets.
g. Upon transfer of the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests to Buyer as set forth herein and until termination of any related Transactions as set forth herein, ownership of the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests is vested in the Buyer, and record title to each Mezzanine Loan shall be retained by the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary or a Servicer for liquidation purposes, for the benefit of Buyer.
h. This Agreement is not a commitment by Buyer to enter into Transactions with Seller but rather sets forth the procedures to be used in connection with periodic requests for Buyer to enter into Transactions with Seller. Seller hereby acknowledges that Buyer is under no obligation to agree to enter into, or to enter into, any Transaction pursuant to this Agreement.
i. The Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price may be increased by agreement of Buyer and Seller if the Accordion Requirements are satisfied at the time that the increase is proposed. Buyer shall have sole discretion in determining whether the Accordion Requirements are satisfied and shall provide written notice to Seller that the Accordion Requirements have been satisfied. Buyer shall also have sole discretion in determining whether the Accordion Requirements continue to be satisfied during the period that the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price is increased. To the extent that the Accordion Requirements are not satisfied during
-26-
the period that the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price is increased, Buyer may reduce the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price or the Market Value relating to any of the Transactions in its sole discretion by providing written notice to Seller. Upon receipt of such notice, Seller shall be responsible for remitting to Buyer any amounts due to Buyer as a result of the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price reduction within one (1) Business Day.
4. Repurchase
a. Seller shall repurchase the related Purchased Assets from Buyer on each related Repurchase Date. Such obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Purchased Asset (but liquidation or foreclosure proceeds received by Buyer shall be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Asset on each Price Differential Payment Date except as otherwise provided herein). Seller is obligated to repurchase and take physical possession of the Purchased Assets from Buyer or its designee (including the Custodian) at Seller’s expense on the related Repurchase Date. Buyer’s costs shall be limited to out-of-pocket costs.
b. Provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, and Buyer has received the related Repurchase Price upon repurchase of the Purchased Assets, Buyer agrees to release its ownership interest hereunder in the Purchased Assets (including, the Repurchase Assets related thereto) at the request of Seller.
c. With respect to prepayments in full or part by the related Mortgagor or obligor of a Purchased Asset or Mezzanine Loan, Seller agrees to (i) provide Buyer with a copy of a report from the related Servicer indicating that such Purchased Asset or Mezzanine Loan has been paid in full or part, (ii) pay to Buyer the portion of the Repurchase Price payable pursuant to Paragraph 4(a) above within one Business Day of receipt of such prepayment and (iii) provide Buyer a notice specifying each Purchased Asset or Mezzanine Loan that has been prepaid. With respect to Purchased Assets or Mezzanine Loan being serviced by Third Party Servicers, the Seller or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary, as applicable, and Servicer shall forward all payments to the Buyer to the extent received from the underlying obligor and Third Party Servicer. Buyer agrees to release its ownership interest in Purchased Assets or Mezzanine Loans which have been prepaid in full after receipt of evidence of compliance with clauses (i) through (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence.
d. The Seller may voluntarily repurchase Purchased Assets or request a Purchase Price Decrease without penalty or premium on any Business Day by delivering to Buyer a Request for Repurchase/Purchase Price Decrease and Confirmation no more than once per week unless consented to in writing by Buyer in its sole discretion. If the Seller intends to make such a repurchase or Purchase Price Decrease, the Seller shall give two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to the Buyer, designating the Purchased Assets to be repurchased or Mezzanine
-27-
Loans to be reconveyed, which notice is irrevocable if not revoked prior to the date one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Repurchase Date or date of the Purchase Price Decrease. If such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, and, on receipt, such amount shall be applied to the Repurchase Price for the designated Purchased Assets.
e. If the Seller repurchases, in whole or in part, Purchased Assets or causes a Purchase Price Decrease on any day which is not the Repurchase Date or a Price Differential Payment Date (as determined at the time the Buyer locked in the rate of LIBOR) for such Purchased Assets, the Seller shall indemnify the Buyer and hold the Buyer harmless from any losses, costs and/or expenses which the Buyer sustains or incurs arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by the Buyer hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained, in each case for the remainder of the applicable 30-day period (“Breakage Costs”). The Buyer shall deliver to the Seller a statement setting forth the amount and basis of determination of any Breakage Costs in such detail as determined in good faith by the Buyer to be adequate based on existing market practice, it being agreed that such statement and the method of its calculation shall be adequate and shall be conclusive and binding upon the Seller, absent manifest error.
5. Price Differential
a. On the beginning of each LIBOR Period that a Transaction is outstanding, the Pricing Rate shall be reset and, unless otherwise agreed, the accrued and unpaid Price Differential shall be settled in cash on each related Price Differential Payment Date. Two (2) Business Days prior to the Price Differential Payment Date, Buyer shall give Seller written or electronic notice of the amount of the Price Differential due on such Price Differential Payment Date. On the Price Differential Payment Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer (to the extent not paid on such date through the distributions required pursuant to Sections 7(d) or 7(e) hereof) the accrued but unpaid Price Differential and the accrued but unpaid Administration Fee 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 4:00 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 Buyer (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 until the Price Differential is received in full by Buyer.
-28-
6. Margin Maintenance
a. If at any time the Asset Value of the Purchased Assets subject to Transactions is less than the sum of (i) the Purchase Price for then outstanding Transactions and (ii) the aggregate outstanding Future Funding Amounts minus (iii) the applicable Purchase Price Percentage times such outstanding Future Funding Amounts (an “Asset Value Margin Deficit”), then, if such Asset Value Margin Deficit (combined with any Concentration Limit Margin Deficit and any Rating Margin Deficit) is greater than the Permitted Amount, Buyer may by notice to Sellers require Sellers to transfer to Buyer cash in an amount at least equal to the Margin Deficit (such requirement, an “Asset Value Margin Call”).
b. If at any time after the applicable Concentration Limit Trigger Date a Concentration Limit is exceeded (the amount of such excess, a “Concentration Limit Margin Deficit”), then, if such Concentration Limit Margin Deficit (combined with any Asset Value Margin Deficit and any Rating Margin Deficit) is greater than the Permitted Amount, Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Buyer cash in an amount such that the Purchased Assets would be in compliance with such Concentration Limit (such requirement, a “Concentration Limit Margin Call”) and the Buyer 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.
c. If at any time after any Concentration Limit Trigger Date the Buyer determines in its good faith discretion that any portion of the Purchase Price outstanding (relative to the Purchased Assets) would not receive a rating of at least BBB+ (or the comparable designation) from any Rating Agency, as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion generally in accordance with the methodology used by any Rating Agency, (a “Rating Margin Deficit” and together with an Asset Value Margin Deficit and a Concentration Limit Margin Deficit, a “Margin Deficit”), then, if such Rating Margin Deficit (combined with any Concentration Limit Margin Deficit and any Asset Value Margin Deficit) is greater than the Permitted Amount, Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Buyer cash in an amount such that the entire Purchase Price outstanding (relative to the Purchased Assets after application of such cash) would receive a rating of at least BBB+ (or the comparable designation) from any Rating Agency, as determined by Buyer (such requirement, a “Rating Margin Call” and together with an Asset Value Margin Call and a Concentration Limit Margin Call a “Margin Call”) and the Buyer shall apply such cash to the outstanding Purchase Price of all Purchased Assets on a weighted average, pro rata, basis.
d. Notice delivered pursuant to Section 6(a) shall be given pursuant to the notice provision as set forth in Section 20 hereof. 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 requirement
-29-
for satisfaction of a Margin Call is referred to as the “Margin Deadline”). The failure of Buyer, 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 Buyer to do so at a later date. Seller and Buyer each agree that a failure or delay by Buyer to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive Buyer’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Seller.
e. In the event that a Margin Deficit exists with respect to any Purchased Asset, Buyer may retain any funds received by it to which the Seller would otherwise be entitled hereunder, which funds (i) shall be held by Buyer against the related Margin Deficit and (ii) may be applied by Buyer against any Purchased Asset for which the related Margin Deficit remains otherwise unsatisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer retains the right, in its sole discretion, to make a Margin Call in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.
f. On any day on which the aggregate Asset Value of the Purchased Assets subject to Transactions exceeds the sum of the then outstanding aggregate Purchase Price of all Transactions (a “Margin Excess”), if (x) such Margin Excess is greater than the Permitted Amount and (y) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or will result therefrom, including, without limitation, a Concentration Limit Margin Deficit or a Rating Margin Deficit, the Buyer shall, within three (3) Business Days of receipt of written request from Seller, remit to Seller cash or release Purchased Assets (which such release of Purchased Assets shall be subject to receipt by the Buyer of the Exit Fee, if any) as requested by the Seller, in either case, in amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount requested by the Seller and (ii) such Margin Excess. To the extent that the Buyer remits cash to the Seller, such cash shall be additional Purchase Price with respect to the Transactions. Any request received by the Buyer on any Business Day shall be remitted by the Buyer on the next Business Day.
g. Buyer shall not be obligated to remit an amount or release Purchased Assets requested pursuant to a request for Margin Excess which (i) Buyer determines is based on erroneous information or would result in a Transaction other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) does not reflect the current determination of Asset Value as provided in the definition thereof, (iii) shall thereby give rise to a Concentration Limit Margin Deficit or a Rating Margin Deficit or (iv) exceeds the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price.
7. Income Payments
a. The Securities Account shall be established by the Seller in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Control Account Agreement concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Seller and Buyer. Buyer shall have sole dominion and control over the Securities Account. All Income (other than amounts deposited in escrow accounts pursuant to the Servicing Agreement) in respect of the Purchased Assets and any payments in respect of associated Interest
-30-
Rate Protection Agreements, as well as any interest received by Seller from the reinvestment of such Income, shall be deposited into the Securities Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt by Seller and shall be remitted from the Securities Account in accordance with this Agreement and the Control Account Agreement. All such Income shall be held in trust for Buyer, shall constitute the property of Buyer and once deposited into the Securities Account shall not be commingled with other property of Seller, any Affiliate of Seller, or Servicer. Seller shall have the right at all times, subject to the provisions of the Control Account Agreement, to access and remove funds in the Securities Account. Such amounts may be invested in Permitted Investments that mature on the succeeding Price Differential Payment Date.
b. Servicer shall deposit all Income (other than amounts deposited in escrow accounts), derived from the Purchased Assets, whether constituting collections thereon or proceeds of sale thereof, into the Securities Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt by Servicer.
c. In addition, with respect to each Purchased Asset, Seller shall deliver to the Custodian an instruction letter from Buyer, signed by the Servicer with respect to such Purchased Asset, instructing the Servicer, as applicable, to remit all sums required to be remitted to the holder of such Purchased Asset under the loan documents to the Securities Account or as otherwise directed in a written notice signed by Buyer. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Buyer may deliver such instruction letter to the Servicer. With respect to Third Party Servicers, the parties shall comply with Section 12(d) hereof.
d. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, all Balloon Payments and Principal Prepayments deposited into the Securities Account shall, after notice to Buyer, be applied by Buyer on the date of such deposit or, if such deposit is made after 3:00 p.m. (New York time), on the following Business Day, to reduce the Purchase Price of the related Purchased Asset by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of such payment and (ii) the Purchase Price of the related Purchased Asset. The balance of such Balloon Payments and Principal Prepayments in excess of the Repurchase Price of the related Purchased Asset shall be paid to Seller on such date.
e. Funds deposited in the Securities Account during any LIBOR Period (except as provided in Section 7(d) above) shall be held therein until the next Price Differential Payment Date. On or before 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day prior to the Price Differential Payment Date, Servicer shall deliver to Buyer and the Securities Intermediary a Distribution Worksheet. Subject to the terms of the Control Account Agreement, Seller shall withdraw any funds on deposit in the Securities Account and distribute such funds as follows:
(1) first, to Buyer in payment of any accrued and unpaid Price Differential to the extent not paid by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 5;
-31-

(5) fifth, to the payment of all other costs and fees payable to Buyer 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 hereunder, all funds in the Securities Account shall be withdrawn and applied:
(1) first, in the same order of priority as Sections (e)(1), (2), (3) and (4) above;
(2) second, to reduction of the Repurchase Price until reduced to zero;
(3) third, to payment of all costs and fees and any other Obligations payable to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; and
(4) fourth, any remainder shall be paid to Seller.
g. Buyer shall offset against the accrued and outstanding Price Differential all Price Differential payments actually received by Buyer pursuant to Section 5.
8. Security Interest
a. 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 Buyer as security for the performance by Seller of its Obligations and hereby grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a fully perfected first priority security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to 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, hazard insurance and Income, the Securities Account, the Interest Rate Protection Agreements, the Loan Security Agreements, accounts (including any interest of Seller in escrow accounts) and any other contract rights, instruments, accounts,

Seller agrees to execute, deliver and/or file such documents and perform such acts as may be reasonably necessary to fully perfect Buyer’s security interest created hereby. Furthermore, the Seller hereby authorizes the Buyer to file financing statements relating to the Repurchase Assets, as the Buyer may reasonably deem appropriate. The Seller shall pay the reasonable filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section.
b. The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) by reason of Section 8-103(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code, the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests constitute “securities” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(15) of the Uniform Commercial Code, and (ii) by reason of the applicable provisions of the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Corporate Agreement, each of such “securities” constitutes a “certificated security” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(4) of the Uniform Commercial Code. In order to perfect Buyer’s security interest in the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests pursuant to Section 8-106(b)(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code, Seller shall deliver to Buyer in the State of New York all security certificates evidencing and/or representing the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests, together with an undated transfer power covering each such security certificate duly indorsed in blank, to be held by Buyer subject to the terms hereof as security for the Obligations (in the event any Transaction is deemed to be a loan).
If Seller shall, as a result of its interest in the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests, become entitled to receive or shall receive any certificate evidencing any equity interest, any option rights, or any equity interest in Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary, whether in addition to, in substitution for, as a conversion of, or in exchange for the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests, or otherwise in respect thereof, Seller shall accept the same as the Buyer’s agent, hold the same in trust for the Buyer and deliver the same forthwith to the Buyer in the exact form received, duly endorsed by Seller to the Buyer, if required, together with an undated transfer power, if required, covering such certificate duly executed in blank, to be held by the Buyer subject to the terms hereof as additional security for the Obligations (in the event that any Transaction is deemed to be a loan). Any sums paid upon or in respect of the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests upon the liquidation or dissolution of Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary shall be paid over to the Buyer as additional security for any outstanding Obligations (in the event that any Transaction is deemed to be a loan). If following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default any sums of money or property so paid or distributed in respect of the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests shall be received by Seller, Seller shall, until such money or property is paid or delivered to the Buyer, hold such money or property in trust for the Buyer segregated from other funds of Seller, as additional security for the Obligations.
Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Seller shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends or other cash distributions paid in respect of the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests and Preferred Equity Investments and to exercise all voting and stockholder rights with respect to the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests and Preferred Equity Investments,
-33-
as applicable; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or stockholder right exercised or other action taken which would impair the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests or Preferred Equity Investments, as applicable or which would be inconsistent with or result in a violation of any provision of this Repurchase Agreement. Without the prior consent of the Buyer, Seller will not (i) vote to enable, or take any other action to permit, Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary to issue any capital stock of any nature or to issue any other interests convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any capital stock of Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary, or (ii) sell, assign, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests or Preferred Equity Investments or (iii) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien or option in favor of, or any claim of any Person with respect to, the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests, Preferred Equity Investments, or any interest therein, except for the Lien provided for by this Repurchase Agreement, or (iv) enter into any agreement (other than the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Corporate Agreement and this Repurchase Agreement) or undertaking restricting the right or ability of Seller to sell, assign or transfer any of the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary Interests or Preferred Equity Investments.
c. The Buyer, Seller and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary each hereby agrees that in order to further secure Seller’s Obligations hereunder, the Seller and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary each hereby pledges to Buyer as security for the performance by Seller of its Obligations and hereby grants, assigns and pledges to Buyer a security interest in the Mezzanine Loans, the Records related to such Mezzanine Loans, and all related servicing rights, the Program Agreements (to the extent such Program Agreements and Seller’s right thereunder relate to the Mezzanine Loans), any Property relating to the Mezzanine Loans, all insurance policies and insurance proceeds relating to any Mezzanine Loans or the related Mortgaged Property, including, but not limited to, any payments or proceeds under any related primary insurance, hazard insurance and, Income, accounts (including any interest of Mezzanine Loans in escrow accounts) 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 Mezzanine Loans (including, without limitation, any other accounts) or any interest in the Mezzanine Loans, and any proceeds (including the related securitization proceeds) and distributions with respect to any of the foregoing, in all instances, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created (collectively, the “Mezzanine Loan Assets”). All Mezzanine Loan Assets shall be deemed to be part of the Repurchase Assets. Seller agrees to execute, deliver and/or file such documents and perform such acts as may be reasonably necessary to fully perfect Buyer’s security interest created hereby. Furthermore, Seller hereby authorizes the Buyer to file financing statements relating to the Mezzanine Loan Assets, as the Buyer, at its option, may deem appropriate. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this paragraph. The foregoing paragraph is intended to constitute a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement related to the Agreement and transactions hereunder as defined under Section 101(47)(v) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(a) Any and all payments by the Seller under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Agreements to which the Seller is a party shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto, whether now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or other Governmental Authority (collectively, “Taxes”), unless required by law. If the Seller shall be required under any applicable Requirement of Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Program Agreements to the Buyer, (i) Seller shall make all such deductions and withholdings in respect of Taxes, (ii) Seller shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld in respect of Taxes to the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with any applicable Requirement of Law, and (iii) the sum payable by Seller shall be increased as may be necessary so that after Seller has made all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 11(E) such Buyer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes. For purposes of this Agreement the term “Non-Excluded Taxes” are Taxes other than, in the case of a Buyer, Taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Buyer is organized or of its applicable lending office, or any political subdivision thereof, unless such Taxes are imposed as a result of such Buyer having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received payments under, or enforced, this Agreement or any of the other Program Agreements (in which case such Taxes will be treated as Non-Excluded Taxes).
(b) In addition, Seller hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp, recording, documentary, excise, property or value-added taxes, or similar taxes, charges
-39-
or levies that arise from any payment made under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Agreement or from the execution, delivery or registration of, any performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Program Agreement (collectively, “Other Taxes”).
(c) Seller hereby agrees to indemnify Buyer for, and to hold it harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 11(E) imposed on or paid by such Buyer and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. The indemnity by Seller provided for in this Section 11(E)(c) shall apply and be made whether or not the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted. Amounts payable by Seller under the indemnity set forth in this Section 11(E)(c) shall be paid within ten (10) days from the date on which Buyer makes written demand therefor.
(d) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, Seller (or any Person making such payment on behalf of Seller) shall furnish to Buyer for its own account a certified copy of the original official receipt evidencing payment thereof. For purposes of subsection (e) of this Section 11(E), the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code.
(e) Each Buyer (including for avoidance of doubt any assignee, successor or participant) that either (i) is not incorporated under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia or (ii) whose name does not include “Incorporated,” “Inc.,” “Corporation,” “Corp.,” “P.C.,” “insurance company,” or “assurance company” (a “Non-Exempt Buyer”) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Seller the following properly completed and duly executed documents:
(i) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is not a United States person, a complete and executed (x) U.S. Internal Revenue Form W-8BEN with Part II completed in which Buyer claims the benefits of a tax treaty with the United States providing for a zero or reduced rate of withholding (or any successor forms thereto), including all appropriate attachments or (y) a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms thereto); or
(ii) in the case of an individual, (x) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms thereto) and a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit XII (a “Section 11(E) Certificate”) or (y) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms thereto); or
(iii) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms thereto), including all appropriate attachments; or
-40-
(iv) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that (x) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia and (y) is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming a zero rate of withholding (or any successor forms thereto) and a Section 11(E) Certificate; or
(v) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that (A) is treated as a partnership or other non-corporate entity, and (B) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia, (x)(i) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms thereto) (including all required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 11(E) Certificate, and (y) without duplication, with respect to each of its beneficial owners and the beneficial owners of such beneficial owners looking through chains of owners to individuals or entities that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes (all such owners, “beneficial owners”), the documents that would be required by clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii) and/or this clause (v) with respect to each such beneficial owner if such beneficial owner were Buyer, provided, however, that no such documents will be required with respect to a beneficial owner to the extent the actual Buyer is determined to be in compliance with the requirements for certification on behalf of its beneficial owner as may be provided in applicable U.S. Treasury regulations, or the requirements of this clause (v) are otherwise determined to be unnecessary, all such determinations under this clause (v) to be made in the sole discretion of Seller, provided, however, that Buyer shall be provided an opportunity to establish such compliance as reasonable; or
(vi) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the document that would be required by clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vii) and/or this clause (vi) of this Section 11(E)(e) with respect to its beneficial owner if such beneficial owner were the Buyer; or
(vii) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that (A) is not a United States person and (B) is acting in the capacity as an “intermediary” (as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations), (x)(i) a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor form thereto) (including all required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 11(E) Certificate, and (y) if the intermediary is a “non-qualified intermediary” (as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations), from each person upon whose behalf the “non-qualified intermediary” is acting the documents that would be required by clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), and/or this clause (vii) with respect to each such person if each such person were Buyer.
If the forms referred to above in this Section 11(E)(e) that are provided by a Buyer at the time such Buyer first becomes a party to this Agreement or, with respect to a grant of a participation, the effective date thereof, indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be treated as Taxes other than “Non-Excluded Taxes” (“Excluded Taxes”) and shall not qualify as Non-Excluded Taxes unless and until such Buyer provides the appropriate form certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon
-41-
withholding tax at such lesser rate shall be considered Excluded Taxes solely for the periods governed by such form. If, however, on the date a Person becomes an assignee, successor or participant to this Agreement, Buyer transferor was entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under this Section 11(E), then the Buyer assignee, successor or participant shall be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts to the extent (and only to the extent), that the Buyer transferor was entitled to such indemnification or additional amounts for Non-Excluded Taxes, and the Buyer assignee, successor or participant shall be entitled to additional indemnification or additional amounts for any other or additional Non-Excluded Taxes.
For any period with respect to which Buyer has failed to provide Seller with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in subsection (e) of this Section 11(E) (other than (i) if such failure is due to a change in any applicable Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided, (ii) if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) of this Section 11(E), or (iii) if it is legally inadvisable or otherwise commercially disadvantageous for such Buyer to deliver such form, certificate or other document), such Buyer shall not be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 11(E) with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Buyer become subject to Non-Excluded Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, Seller shall take such steps as such Buyer shall reasonably request, to assist such Buyer in recovering such Non-Excluded Taxes.
Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Seller hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Seller contained in this Section 11(E) shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 11(E) shall require the Buyer to make available any of its tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.
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 the Transaction as indebtedness of the Seller that is secured by the Purchased Assets and the Purchased Assets as owned by the Seller for federal income tax purposes in the absence of a Default by the Seller. All parties to this Agreement agree to such treatment and agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment, unless required by law.
a. Seller and Buyer shall contract with Servicer to 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 Buyer in any Purchased Assets or any payment thereunder. In addition, the Servicing Agreement shall require that the Servicer
-42-
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 Securities Account no later than two (2) Business Days following receipt. For purposes of complying with the requirements of this Agreement, Servicer may delegate its responsibility hereunder to subservicer; provided that Servicer shall remain liable for all obligations required hereunder.
b. Upon the occurrence of any of (i) a Default or Event of Default hereunder or (ii) an event of default under the Servicing Agreement, Buyer 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 Buyer 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 Buyer.
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 Buyer a Servicer Notice addressed to and agreed to by the Third Party Servicer of the related Purchased Assets, advising such Third Party Servicer of such matters as Buyer may reasonably request, including, without limitation, recognition by the master servicer of Buyer’s interest in such Purchased Assets and the Third Party Servicer’s agreement that upon receipt of notice of an Event of Default from Buyer, it will follow the instructions of Buyer with respect to the Purchased Assets and any related Income with respect thereto.
e. Seller shall not employ sub-servicers (other than the Servicer) to service the Purchased Assets without the prior written approval of Buyer, which such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Servicer may employ sub-servicers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Servicing Agreement. If the Purchased Assets are serviced, in whole or in part, by a sub-servicer (i) Servicer shall nevertheless remain primarily liable to Buyer for the servicing of the Purchased Assets under the Servicing Agreement; and (ii) any agreement with a subservicer shall entitle Buyer to terminate such subservicer without fee or penalty in the event that Servicer is replaced.
f. Upon the occurrence of a Backup Servicing Trigger Event, (a) the Buyer and the Seller shall enter into a Backup Servicing Agreement with a Backup Servicer acceptable to the Buyer within 30 days of the Backup Servicing Trigger Event and (b) the Sellers shall deliver to the Backup Servicer a completed and signed Notice to Borrower, substantially in the form of Exhibit N hereto, with respect to each Purchased Asset subject to a Transaction.

Since the date of its incorporation, there has been no material adverse change in the consolidated business, operations or financial condition of the Guarantor from that set forth in said financial statements nor is Guarantor aware of any state of facts which (with notice or the lapse of time) would or could result in any such material adverse change.

Buyer shall (except upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency) give notice to Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable.

If Buyer 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 Buyer and applied, in Buyer’s sole discretion, to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices for all outstanding Transactions and any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder, and (iii) Seller shall immediately deliver to Buyer the Asset Files relating to any Purchased Assets subject to such Transactions then in Seller’s possession or control.

-58-
give any warranties as to the Purchased Assets with respect to any such disposition thereof. Buyer 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.

i. Buyer may exercise one or more of the remedies available to Buyer immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and, except to the extent provided in subsections (a) and (d) 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 Buyer may have.
j. Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process.

l. The Seller recognizes the Buyer may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets.

The Buyer shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Securities for the period of time necessary to permit the Seller to register such securities for public sale under the 1933 Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the Seller would agree to do so.
m. Nothing contained in the Agreement shall obligate Buyer to segregate any Purchased Assets delivered to Buyer by Seller. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Agreement, in no event shall Purchased Assets remain in the custody of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller.

In the event Buyer engages in a repurchase transaction with any of the Purchased Assets or otherwise pledges or hypothecates any of the Purchased Assets, Buyer shall have the right to assign to 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.

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.
The Program Agreements are not assignable by Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary. Buyer may from time to time assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Program Agreements; provided, however that
-67-
assignments to Buyer’s non-Affiliates shall require the consent of the Seller not to be unreasonably withheld unless there is an Event of Default, in which case no consent shall be required; and provided further that Buyer shall maintain as agent of Seller, for review by Seller upon written request, a register of assignees and a copy of an executed assignment and acceptance by Buyer and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned. Upon such assignment, (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 obligations of Buyer hereunder, and (b) Buyer shall, to the extent that such rights and obligations have been so assigned by it to either (i) an Affiliate of Buyer which assumes the obligations of Buyer or (ii) to another Person approved by Seller (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) which assumes the obligations of Buyer, be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Program Agreements. Unless otherwise stated in the Assignment and Acceptance, Seller shall continue to take directions solely from Buyer unless otherwise notified by Buyer in writing. Buyer may distribute to any prospective assignee any document or other information delivered to Buyer by Seller.
The 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, that (i) the Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the 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 the Buyer in connection with the Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Agreements except as provided in Section 11(E).
The 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 the Seller, Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary or any of their respective Subsidiaries or to any aspect of the Transactions that has been furnished to the Buyer by or on behalf of the Seller, Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary or any of their respective Subsidiaries; provided that such assignee or participant agrees to hold such information subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.
In addition to any rights and remedies of Buyer provided by law, Buyer shall have the right, without prior notice to Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount 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 Buyer or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary. Buyer agrees promptly to notify Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary after any such
-68-
set-off and application made by Buyer; 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. Seller acknowledges that the obligations of Buyer hereunder or otherwise are not the subject of any guaranty by, or recourse to, any direct or indirect parent or other Affiliate of Buyer. 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.
b. EACH OF BUYER, SELLER, GUARANTOR AND MEZZANINE LOAN SUBSIDIARY HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND/OR ANY PROGRAM AGREEMENT. EACH OF BUYER, SELLER, GUARANTOR AND MEZZANINE LOAN SUBSIDIARY 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 BUYER, SELLER, GUARANTOR AND MEZZANINE LOAN SUBSIDIARY HEREBY SUBMITS TO, AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY HAVE TO, EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN XXX XXXXXX XX XXX XXXXX XX XXX XXXX 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.
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), 16(a) or otherwise, will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date.
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
-69-
amended (except insofar as the type of Purchased Assets subject to such Transaction or the term of such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable), and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).
b. It is understood that either party’s right to liquidate Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 16 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.
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 555 and Section 559 under the Bankruptcy Code.
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
-70-
a deposit and therefore are not insured by the FDIC or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.
Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Repurchase Assets without Seller’s signature thereon as Buyer, at its option, may deem appropriate. Seller hereby appoints Buyer as Seller’s agent and attorney-in-fact to (i) to perform all acts which Buyer 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 Buyer’s consent (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Buyer). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the power of attorney hereby granted may be exercised only after the occurrence and during the 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. Buyer May Act Through Affiliates
Buyer may, from time to time, designate one or more affiliates for the purpose of performing any action hereunder.
30. Indemnification; Obligations; Recourse
a. Each of Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary agrees to hold Buyer 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. Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary 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. Seller’s, Guarantor’s and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary’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, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary hereby acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are recourse obligations of Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary and are not limited to recoveries each
-71-
Indemnified Party may have with respect to the Purchased Assets. Each of Seller, Guarantor, Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary and Buyer hereby acknowledges that Buyer shall not have recourse against Seller’s or Guarantor’s shareholders for the obligations hereunder. Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary also agree not to assert any claim against 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. 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.
b. Without limitation to the provisions of Section 4, if any payment of the Repurchase Price of any Transaction is made by Seller other than on the then scheduled Repurchase Date thereto as a result of an acceleration of the Repurchase Date pursuant to Section 16 or for any other reason, Seller shall, upon demand by Buyer, pay to Buyer an amount sufficient to compensate Buyer for any losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as of a result of such payment.
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 Buyer, 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.
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.
This Agreement and its terms, provisions, supplements and amendments, and notices hereunder, are proprietary to Buyer and Agent and shall be held by Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary in strict confidence and shall not be disclosed to any third party without the written consent of Buyer except for (i) disclosure to Seller’s, Guarantor’s, or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary’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, or (ii) disclosure required by law, rule, regulation or order of a
-72-
court or other regulatory body, including but not limited to disclosure of this Agreement as a “material agreement” by the Guarantor in its “corporate finance” SEC filings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may, without Buyer’s written consent, communicate the terms of this Agreement with up to seven (7) qualified institutional buyers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary may disclose to all persons, without limitation, the federal tax treatment of the transactions, and all materials of any kind relating to such federal income tax treatment; provided that there is no disclosure of the names or identifying information with respect to any party herein or any pricing terms or other nonpublic business or financial information that is unrelated to the purported or claimed federal income tax treatment of the transaction and is not relevant to the understanding of the purported or claimed federal income tax treatment of the transaction, without the prior written consent of the Buyer.
33. Recording of Communications
Buyer, Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary 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. Buyer, Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary 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.
In the event that a Purchased Asset is repurchased before the Termination Date and is placed in a securitization which is not arranged by Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer in a lead underwriter role or another role acceptable to Buyer, Seller shall pay to Buyer the applicable Exit Fee.
The Seller shall pay the Administration Fee to the Buyer in consideration of its administration of the facility pursuant to the terms of the Fee Letter.
36. Periodic Due Diligence Review
Seller acknowledges that Buyer has the right to perform continuing 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 two (2) Business Day’s) prior notice unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, to Seller, Buyer or its 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, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession or under the control of Seller, Guarantor, Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary and/or the Custodian. Seller also shall make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting
-73-
the Asset Files and the Purchased Assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Buyer may purchase Purchased Assets from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Purchased Asset Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at its option, has 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. Buyer may underwrite such Purchased Assets itself or engage a mutually agreed upon third party underwriter to perform such underwriting. Seller agrees to cooperate with Buyer and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Buyer 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 Buyer in connection with Buyer’s activities pursuant to this Section 36 (“Due Diligence Costs”).
Any of the persons whose signatures and titles appear on Schedule 2 are authorized, acting singly, to act for Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, under this Agreement.
39. Documents Mutually Drafted
The Seller, Guarantor, Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary and the Buyer each 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.
40. General Interpretive Principles.

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;

SCHEDULE 1
Schedule 1(a)
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
RE: PURCHASED ASSETS CONSISTING OF HEALTHCARE MORTGAGE LOANS
Seller represents and warrants to Buyer, with respect to each Purchased Asset which is a Healthcare Mortgage Loan, that except as specifically disclosed to and approved by Buyer in accordance with the Agreement, as of the Purchase Date for each such Purchased Asset by Buyer from Seller and as of the date of each Transaction hereunder and at all times while the Program Agreements or any Transaction hereunder is in full force and effect the representations set forth on this Schedule 1(a) shall be true and correct in all material respects. For purposes of this Schedule 1(a) and the representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to a Purchased Asset which is a Healthcare Mortgage Loan if and when Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such that the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer affects such Purchased Asset.
1. The Healthcare Mortgage Loan is a performing mortgage loan secured by a first priority security interest in a Facility.
2. Such Healthcare Mortgage Loan complies in all material respects with, or is exempt from, all requirements of federal, state or local law relating to such Healthcare Mortgage Loan.
3. Immediately prior to the sale, transfer and assignment to Buyer thereof, Seller had good and marketable title to, and was the sole owner and holder of, such Healthcare Mortgage Loan, and Seller is transferring such Healthcare Mortgage Loan free and clear of any and all liens, pledges, encumbrances, charges, security interests or any other ownership interests of any nature encumbering such Healthcare Mortgage Loan. Upon consummation of the purchase contemplated to occur in respect of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan on the Purchase Date therefor, Seller will have validly and effectively conveyed to Buyer all legal and beneficial interest in and to such Healthcare Mortgage Loan free and clear of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or security interest.
4. No fraudulent acts were committed by Seller in connection with its acquisition or origination of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan nor were any fraudulent acts committed by any Person in connection with the origination of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan.
5. All information contained in the related Complete Submission (or as otherwise provided to Buyer) in respect of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan is accurate and complete in all material respects.
6. Except as included in the Complete Submission, Seller is not a party to any document, instrument or agreement, and there is no document, that by its terms modifies or affects the rights and obligations of any holder of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan and Seller has not consented to
Schedule 1(a)-1
any material change or waiver to any term or provision of any such document, instrument or agreement and no such change or waiver exists.
7. Such Healthcare Mortgage Loan is presently outstanding, the proceeds thereof have been fully and properly disbursed and, other than with respect to amounts held in escrow by Servicer, there is no requirement for any future advances thereunder.
8. Seller has full right, power and authority to sell and assign such Healthcare Mortgage Loan and such Healthcare Mortgage Loan or any related Mortgage Note has not been cancelled, satisfied or rescinded in whole or part nor has any instrument been executed that would effect a cancellation, satisfaction or rescission thereof.
9. Other than consents and approvals obtained as of the related Purchase Date or those already granted in the related Mortgage and/or Mortgage Note, no consent or approval by any Person is required in connection with Seller’s sale and/or Buyer’s acquisition of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan, for Buyer’s exercise of any rights or remedies in respect of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan or for Buyer’s sale, pledge or other disposition of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan. No third party holds any “right of first refusal”, “right of first negotiation”, “right of first offer”, purchase option, or other similar rights of any kind, and no other impediment exists to any such transfer or exercise of rights or remedies.
10. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or registration or filing with, or notice to, any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction or regulatory authority is required for any transfer or assignment by the holder of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan.
11. Seller has not received written notice of any outstanding liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind for which the holder of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan is or may become obligated.
12. Seller has not advanced funds, or knowingly received any advance of funds from a party other than the mortgagee relating to such Healthcare Mortgage Loan, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required by such Healthcare Mortgage Loan.
13. Each related Mortgage Note, Mortgage, Assignment of Leases (if a document separate from the Mortgage) and other agreement executed by the related Mortgagor in connection with such Healthcare Mortgage Loan is legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Mortgagor (subject to any non-recourse provisions therein and any state anti-deficiency or market value limit deficiency legislation), enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) that certain provisions contained in such Healthcare Mortgage Loan documents are or may be unenforceable in whole or in part under applicable state or federal laws, but neither the application of any such laws to any such provision nor the inclusion of any such provisions renders any of the Healthcare Mortgage Loan documents invalid as a whole and such Healthcare Mortgage Loan documents taken as a whole are enforceable to the extent necessary and customary for the practical realization of the rights and benefits afforded thereby and (ii) as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a
Schedule 1(a)-2
proceeding in equity or at law). The related Mortgage Note and Mortgage contain no provision limiting the right or ability of Seller to assign, transfer and convey the related Healthcare Mortgage Loan to any other Person, except, however, for customary intercreditor restrictions limiting assignees to “qualified transferees”. With respect to any Underlying Mortgaged Property that has tenants, there exists as either part of the Mortgage or as a separate document, an assignment of leases.
14. There is no offset, defense, counterclaim, abatement or right to rescission with respect to any related Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other agreements executed in connection therewith.
15. Seller has delivered to Buyer or its designee the original Mortgage Note(s) made in respect of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan, together with an original endorsement thereof executed by Seller in blank and the related Asset File.
16. Each related Assignment of Mortgage and assignment of Assignment of Leases from Seller in blank constitutes the legal, valid and binding first priority assignment from Seller (assuming the insertion of the Buyer’s name), except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Each Mortgage and Assignment of Leases is freely assignable.
17. The Healthcare Mortgage Loan is secured by one or more Mortgages and each such Mortgage is a valid and enforceable first lien on the related Underlying Mortgaged Property subject only to the exceptions set forth in paragraph (13) above and the following title exceptions (each such title exception, a “Title Exception”, and collectively, the “Title Exceptions”): (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable, (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the current use of the Underlying Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the Healthcare Mortgage Loan when they become due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Underlying Mortgaged Property, (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in the applicable policy described in paragraph (21) below or appearing of record, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the current use of the Underlying Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the Healthcare Mortgage Loan when they become due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Underlying Mortgaged Property, (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the current use of the Underlying Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the Healthcare Mortgage Loan when they become due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Underlying Mortgaged Property, (e) the right of tenants (whether under ground leases, space leases or operating leases) at the Underlying Mortgaged Property to remain following a foreclosure or similar proceeding (provided that such tenants are performing under such leases) and (f) if such Healthcare Mortgage Loan is cross-collateralized with any other Healthcare Mortgage Loan, the lien of the
Schedule 1(a)-3
Mortgage for such other Healthcare Mortgage Loan, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the current use of the Underlying Mortgaged Property or the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage or with the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations under the Healthcare Mortgage Loan when they become due or materially and adversely affects the value of the Underlying Mortgaged Property. Except with respect to cross-collateralized and cross-defaulted Healthcare Mortgage Loans and as provided below, there are no mortgage loans that are senior or pari passu with respect to the related Underlying Mortgaged Property or such Healthcare Mortgage Loan.
18. UCC 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 necessary to perfect a valid security interest in all items of personal property located on the Underlying Mortgaged Property that are owned by the Mortgagor and either (i) are reasonably necessary to operate the Underlying Mortgaged Property or (ii) are (as indicated in the appraisal obtained in connection with the origination of the related Healthcare Mortgage Loan) material to the value of the Underlying 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 Healthcare 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 Healthcare Mortgage Loan establish and create a valid and enforceable lien and priority security interest on such items of personalty except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
19. All real estate taxes and governmental assessments, or installments thereof, which would be a lien on the Underlying Mortgaged Property and that have become delinquent in respect of the Underlying Mortgaged Property have been paid, or an escrow of funds in an amount sufficient to cover such payments has been established. For purposes of this representation and warranty, real estate taxes and governmental assessments and installments thereof shall not be considered delinquent until the earlier of (a) the date on which interest and/or penalties would first be payable thereon and (b) the date on which enforcement action is entitled to be taken by the related taxing authority.
20. The related Underlying Mortgaged Property is free and clear of any material damage (other than deferred maintenance for which escrows were established at origination) that would affect materially and adversely the value of such Underlying Mortgaged Property as security for the Healthcare Mortgage Loan and there is no proceeding pending or threatened for the total or partial condemnation of such Underlying Mortgaged Property.
21. The lien of each related Mortgage as a first priority lien in the original principal amount of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan after all advances of principal is insured by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy (or a binding commitment therefor), or its equivalent as adopted in the applicable jurisdiction, insuring the original mortgagee, its successors and assigns, subject only to the Title Exceptions; the mortgagee or its successors or assigns is the sole named insured
Schedule 1(a)-4
of such policy; such policy is assignable without consent of the insurer and will inure to the benefit of the mortgagee of record; such title policy is in full force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; all premiums thereon have been paid; no claims have been made under such policy and no circumstance exists which would impair or diminish the coverage of such policy. The insurer issuing such policy is (x) a nationally recognized title insurance company and (y) qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which the related Underlying Mortgaged Property is located to the extent required; such policy contains no material exclusions for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Underlying Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such insurance is not available) (a) access to public road or (b) against any loss due to encroachments of any material portion of the improvements thereon.
22. All insurance coverage required under each related Mortgage, which insurance covered such risks as were customarily acceptable to prudent commercial and multifamily mortgage lending institutions lending on the security of property comparable to the related Underlying Mortgaged Property in the jurisdiction in which such Underlying Mortgaged Property is located, and with respect to a fire and extended perils insurance policy, is in an amount (subject to a customary deductible) at least equal to the lesser of (i) the replacement cost of improvements located on such Underlying Mortgaged Property, or (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Healthcare 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 at least equal to 12 months of operations of the related Underlying Mortgaged Property, all of which was in full force and effect with respect to the related Underlying Mortgaged Property; and all insurance coverage required under each Mortgage, 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 Underlying Mortgaged Property in the jurisdiction in which such Underlying Mortgaged Property is located, is in full force and effect with respect to the related Underlying Mortgaged Property; all premiums due and payable have been paid; 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 Healthcare Mortgage Loan and which are set forth in the related Mortgage, any insurance proceeds in respect of a casualty loss, will be applied either (i) to the repair or restoration of all or part of the related Underlying Mortgaged Property or (ii) the reduction of the outstanding principal balance of the Healthcare Mortgage Loan, subject in either case to requirements with respect to leases at the related Underlying Mortgaged Property and to other exceptions customarily provided for by prudent institutional lenders for similar loans. The Underlying 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 Underlying Mortgaged Property, in an amount customarily required by prudent institutional lenders. An architectural or engineering consultant has performed an analysis of the Underlying 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 Underlying Mortgaged Property in the event of an earthquake. In such instance, the PML was based on a 475 year lookback 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
Schedule 1(a)-5
costs of the improvements, earthquake insurance on such Underlying Mortgaged Property was obtained by an insurer rated at least A-:V by A.M. Best Company or “BBB-” (or the equivalent) from S&P and Fitch or “Baa3” (or the equivalent) from Xxxxx’x. If the Underlying 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 Underlying Mortgaged Property is insured by windstorm insurance in an amount at least equal to the lesser of (i) the outstanding principal balance of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan and (ii) 100% of the full insurable value, or 100% of the replacement cost, of the improvements located on the related Underlying Mortgaged Property.
The insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Seller, 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 the mortgagee (or, with respect to non-payment, 10 days prior written notice to the 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 to require insurance as described above, and permits the mortgagee to purchase such insurance at the Mortgagor’s expense if Mortgagor fails to do so.
23. (a) 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, 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 (b) Seller has not waived any material default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under such Mortgage or Mortgage Note and pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and other documents in the related Mortgage Loan documents no Person or party other than the holder of such Mortgage Note may declare any event of default or accelerate the related indebtedness under either of such Mortgage or Mortgage Note.
24. Such Healthcare Mortgage Loan is not, since origination, and has not been, 30 days or more past due in respect of any scheduled payment or part thereof.
25. Each related Mortgage does not provide for or permit, without the prior written consent of the holder of the Mortgage Note, the related Underlying Mortgaged Property to secure any other promissory note or obligation except as expressly described in such Mortgage.
26. Such Healthcare Mortgage Loan constitutes a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)of the Code (without regard to Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860G-2(a)(3) or 1.860G-2(f)(2)), is directly secured by a Mortgage on a commercial property or a multifamily residential property, and either (1) substantially all of the proceeds of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan were used to acquire, improve or protect the portion of such commercial or multifamily residential property that consists of an interest in real property (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.856-3(c) and 1.856-3(d)) and such interest in real property was the only security for such Healthcare Mortgage Loan as of the Testing Date (as defined below), or (2) the fair market value of the interest in real property which secures such Healthcare Mortgage Loan was at least equal to 80% of the principal amount of the
Schedule 1(a)-6
Healthcare Mortgage Loan (a) as of the Testing Date, or (b) as of the Purchase Date. For purposes of the previous sentence, (1) the fair market value of the referenced interest in real property shall first be reduced by (a) the amount of any lien on such interest in real property that is senior to the Healthcare Mortgage Loan, and (b) a proportionate amount of any lien on such interest in real property that is on a parity with the Healthcare Mortgage Loan, and (2) the “Testing Date” shall be the date on which the referenced Healthcare Mortgage Loan was originated unless (a) such Healthcare Mortgage Loan was modified after the date of its origination in a manner that would cause a “significant modification” of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1001-3(b), and (b) such “significant modification” did not occur at a time when such Healthcare Mortgage Loan was in default or when default with respect to such Healthcare Mortgage Loan was reasonably foreseeable. However, if the referenced Healthcare Mortgage Loan has been subjected to a “significant modification” after the date of its origination and at a time when such Healthcare Mortgage Loan was not in default or when default with respect to such Healthcare Mortgage Loan was not reasonably foreseeable, the Testing Date shall be the date upon which the latest such “significant modification” occurred.
27. There is no material and adverse environmental condition or circumstance affecting the Underlying Mortgaged Property; there is no material violation of any applicable Environmental Law with respect to the Underlying Mortgaged Property; neither Seller nor the owner of the Underlying Mortgaged Property has taken any actions which would cause the Underlying Mortgaged Property not to be in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws; the Underlying Mortgage Loan documents require the Mortgagor to comply with all Environmental Laws; and each Mortgagor has agreed to indemnify the mortgagee for any losses resulting from any material, adverse environmental condition or failure of the Mortgagor to abide by such Environmental Laws or has provided environmental insurance.
28. Each related Mortgage and Assignment of Leases, together with applicable state law, contains customary and enforceable provisions for comparable mortgaged properties similarly situated such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the practical realization against the Underlying Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security, including realization by judicial or, if applicable, non-judicial foreclosure, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium, redemption, liquidation or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, or by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
29. No Mortgagor is a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.
30. Such Healthcare 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 Underlying Mortgaged Property or provide for negative amortization. Seller holds no preferred equity interest in such Healthcare Mortgage Loan.
31. Subject to certain exceptions, which are customarily acceptable to prudent commercial and multifamily mortgage lending institutions lending on the security of property comparable to
Schedule 1(a)-7
the related Underlying Mortgaged Property, each related Mortgage or loan agreement contains provisions for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of such Healthcare Mortgage Loan if, without complying with the requirements of the Mortgage or loan agreement, (a) the related Underlying Mortgaged Property, or any controlling interest in the related Mortgagor, is directly 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 interest (as such term is defined in the related Healthcare Mortgage Loan documents) in a mortgagor, issuance of non-controlling new equity interests, transfers among existing members, partners or shareholders in the Mortgagor or an affiliate thereof, transfers among affiliated Mortgagors with respect to Healthcare Mortgage Loans which are cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with other mortgage loans or multi-property Healthcare Mortgage Loans or transfers of a similar nature to the foregoing meeting the requirements of the Healthcare 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 (34) below), or (b) the related Underlying Mortgaged Property or controlling interest in the Mortgagor is encumbered in connection with subordinate financing by a lien or security interest against the related Underlying Mortgaged Property, other than any existing permitted additional debt. The Healthcare Mortgage Loan documents require the Mortgagor to pay all reasonable costs incurred by the Mortgagor with respect to any transfer, assumption or encumbrance requiring lender’s approval.
32. Except as set forth in the related Complete Submission, the terms of the related Mortgage Note(s) and Mortgage(s) 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 Mortgage and no such waiver, modification, alteration, satisfaction, impairment, cancellation, subordination or rescission has occurred since the date upon which the Complete Submission for such Healthcare Mortgage Loan was delivered to Buyer or its designee.
33. Each related Underlying Mortgaged Property was inspected by or on behalf of the related originator or an affiliate during the 12 month period prior to the related origination date.
34. No material portion of the related Underlying Mortgaged Property has been released from the lien of the related Mortgage in any manner which materially and adversely affects the value of the Healthcare Mortgage Loan or materially interferes with the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, and, except with respect to Healthcare Mortgage Loans (a) which permit defeasance by means of substituting for the Underlying Mortgaged Property (or, in the case of a Healthcare Mortgage Loan secured by multiple Underlying Mortgaged Properties, one or more of such Underlying Mortgaged Properties) “government securities” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, sufficient to pay the Healthcare Mortgage Loans (or portions thereof) in accordance with its terms, (b) where a release of the portion of the Underlying Mortgaged Property was contemplated at origination and such portion was not considered material for purposes of underwriting the Healthcare Mortgage Loan, (c) where release is conditional upon the satisfaction of certain underwriting and legal requirements and the payment of a release price that represents adequate consideration for such Underlying Mortgaged Property or the portion thereof that is being released, (d) which permit the related Mortgagor to
Schedule 1(a)-8
substitute a replacement property in compliance with REMIC Provisions or (e) which permit the release(s) of unimproved out-parcels or other portions of the Underlying Mortgaged Property that will not have a material adverse effect on the underwritten value of the security for the Healthcare Mortgage Loan or that were not allocated to any value in the underwriting during the origination of the Healthcare Mortgage Loan, the terms of the related Mortgage do not provide for release of any portion of the Underlying Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage except in consideration of payment in full therefor.
35. There are no material violations of any applicable zoning ordinances, building codes or land laws applicable to the Underlying Mortgaged Property or the use and occupancy thereof which (i) are not insured by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy, or its equivalent as adopted in the applicable jurisdiction, or a law and ordinance insurance policy or (ii) would have a material adverse effect on the value, operation or net operating income of the Underlying Mortgaged Property. The Healthcare Mortgage Loan documents require the Underlying Mortgaged Property to comply with all applicable laws and ordinances.
36. None of the material improvements which were included for the purposes of determining the appraised value of the related Underlying Mortgaged Property at the time of the origination of the Healthcare Mortgage Loan lies outside of the boundaries and building restriction lines of such property (except Underlying Mortgaged Properties which are legal non-conforming uses), to an extent which would have a material adverse affect on the value of the Underlying Mortgaged Property or related Mortgagor’s use and operation of such Underlying Mortgaged Property (unless affirmatively covered by title insurance) and no improvements on adjoining properties encroached upon such Underlying Mortgaged Property to any material and adverse extent (unless affirmatively covered by title insurance).
37. The related Mortgagor has covenanted in its organizational documents and/or the Healthcare Mortgage Loan documents to own no significant asset other than the related Underlying Mortgaged Properties, as applicable, and assets incidental to its ownership and operation of such Underlying Mortgaged Properties, and to hold itself out as being a legal entity, separate and apart from any other Person.
38. No advance of funds has been made other than pursuant to the loan documents, directly or indirectly, by the mortgagee, the Seller or the Servicer to the Mortgagor and no funds have been received from any Person other than the Mortgagor, for or on account of payments due on the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage.
39. There is no pending action, suit or proceeding, or governmental investigation of which mortgagee, Seller or Servicer has received notice, against the Mortgagor or the related Underlying Mortgaged Property the adverse outcome of which could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect such Mortgagor’s ability to pay principal, interest or any other amounts due under such Healthcare Mortgage Loan or the security intended to be provided by the Healthcare Mortgage Loan documents or the current use of the Underlying Mortgaged Property.
Schedule 1(a)-9

43. The improvements located on the Underlying Mortgaged Property are either not located in a federally designated special flood hazard area or, if so located, the 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 lesser of (i) the original principal balance of the Healthcare Mortgage Loan, (ii) the value of such improvements on the related Underlying Mortgaged Property located in such flood hazard area or (iii) the maximum allowed under the related federal flood insurance program.
44.

45. The related Mortgagor, the related lessee, franchisor or operator is in possession of all material licenses, permits and authorizations then required for use of the related Underlying Mortgaged Property by the related Mortgagor.

46. The origination (or acquisition, as the case may be), servicing and collection practices used by mortgagee and servicer with respect to the Healthcare Mortgage Loan have been in all respects legal and have met customary industry standards for servicing of commercial mortgage loans for conduit loan programs.

Furthermore, the Healthcare Mortgage Loan documents for each Healthcare Mortgage Loan provide that the related Mortgagor and an additional guarantor shall be liable to the lender for losses incurred due to the misapplication or misappropriation of rents collected in advance or received by the related Mortgagor after the occurrence of an event of default and not paid to the

49. Subject to the exceptions set forth in paragraph (13) and upon possession of the Underlying 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 Healthcare 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 pursuant to which any Person is entitled to occupy, use or possess all or any portion of the real property.
50. With respect to such Healthcare Mortgage Loan, any prepayment premium and yield maintenance charge constitutes a “customary prepayment penalty” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(2).
51. If such Healthcare Mortgage Loan contains a provision for any defeasance of mortgage collateral, such Healthcare Mortgage Loan permits defeasance (1) no earlier than two years after any securitization of such Healthcare 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. Such Healthcare 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 perfected security interest in the defeasance collateral. The related Healthcare Mortgage Loan documents permit the lender to charge all of its 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 Healthcare 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 Healthcare Mortgage Loan for the remainder of its term, (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 Healthcare Mortgage Loan.

38. As of the Purchase Date with respect to the related Purchase Price Increase, there was no pending action, suit or proceeding, or governmental investigation of which the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary, the Seller, the Mezzanine Borrower or the owner of the Underlying Mortgaged Property has received notice, against the Mortgagor or the related Underlying Mortgaged Property the adverse outcome of which could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the Mezzanine Loan or the Underlying Mortgage Loan.

FORM OF OPINION OF SELLER’S, GUARANTOR’S AND MEZZANINE LOAN SUBSIDIARY’S COUNSEL
_________, ____
Column Financial, Inc.
Eleven Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx
Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to CARE QRS 2007 RE Holdings Corp. (“Seller”), CARE Mezz QRS 2007 RE Holdings Corp. (the “Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary”) and Care Investment Trust Inc. (“Guarantor”)] in connection with the sale and repurchase by Seller of certain assets (the “Eligible Assets”) purchased from time to time (each such date, a “Purchase Date”) by Column Financial, Inc. (“Buyer”) pursuant to a Master Repurchase Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2007, among Seller, Guarantor, Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary and Buyer (the “Master Repurchase Agreement”) and Guarantor’s guarantee of Seller’s obligations under the Master Repurchase Agreement pursuant to the Guaranty dated as of October 1, 2007 (the “Guaranty”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Master Repurchase Agreement.
We have acted as counsel to Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of, and the initial purchase of Eligible Assets made under, the Master Repurchase Agreement and the Guaranty.

c. The certified Consents of the Officer of Seller, the Guarantor and the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary relating to the transactions provided for in the Program Agreements;

A copy of a UCC-1 financing statement describing the Repurchase Assets naming Seller as debtor and Buyer as secured party, which will be filed under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of ___________ with the office of the [Secretary of the State] of _________ (the “Filing Office”) on or about ________ __, 20__ (the “Financing Statement”);

f. Good standing certificates, as of a recent date, for Seller, the Guarantor and the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary from each of the States listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto; and
g. The certificates, letters and opinions required to be furnished by Seller, the Guarantor and the Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary and others in connection with the execution of the Program Agreements, and the additional certificates, letter and documents delivered by or on behalf of such parties concurrently herewith.
For purposes of the opinions expressed below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons and the conformity to the originals of all documents.
Based solely upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:
1. Seller is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and has the corporate power and authority to own its properties and transact the business in which it is engaged. Seller is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business in, and is in good standing under, the laws of each state in which a mortgaged property is located or is otherwise exempt under applicable law from such qualification. The principal place of business of Seller is located at c/o CIT Healthcare LLC, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000.
2. Guarantor is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland, and has the corporate power and authority to own its properties and transact the business in which it is engaged. Guarantor is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business in, and is in good standing under, the laws of each state in which a mortgaged property is located or is otherwise exempt under applicable law from such qualification. The principal place of business of Guarantor is located at _______.
3. Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and has the corporate power and authority to own its properties and transact the business in which it is engaged. Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business in, and is in good standing under, the laws of each state in which a mortgaged property is located or is otherwise exempt under applicable law from such qualification. The principal place of business of Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary is located at c/o CIT Healthcare LLC, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000.
4. Seller has the power to engage in the transactions contemplated by the Program Agreements, and has all requisite power, authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Program Agreements, to transfer and deliver the Repurchase Assets and to perform and observe the terms and conditions of the Program Agreements. Guarantor has the power, authority and legal right to issue and deliver the Guaranty and to perform and observe the terms and conditions thereof.
5. Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary has the power to engage in the transactions contemplated by the Program Agreements, and has all the requisite power, authority and legal right to execute and
E-2
deliver the Program Agreements, to pledge the Mezzanine Loans and to perform and observe the terms and conditions of the Program Agreements.
6. The Program Agreements have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by each of Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary, as applicable, and are valid, legal and binding agreements, enforceable against Seller, Guarantor and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary in accordance with their respective terms, subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, none of which will materially interfere with the realization of the benefits provided thereunder or with Buyer’s ownership of the Purchased Assets.
7. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or notice, filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by either Seller or Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary of, or compliance by such entity with, the Program Agreements, or the transfer of the Repurchase Assets, the pledge of the Mezzanine Loans or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Program Agreements.
8. Neither the transfer or delivery of the Purchased Assets, the pledge of the Mezzanine Loans nor the consummation of any other of the transactions contemplated in the Program Agreements, nor the fulfillment of the terms of the Program Agreements will result in a breach of or constitutes or will constitute a default under (a) the charter or by-laws of either of Seller or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary, or the terms of any material indenture or other agreement or instrument to which either Seller or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary is a party or by which it is bound or to which it is subject, (b) any contractual or legal restriction contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, agreement, instrument or other similar document to which Seller is a party or by which it is bound or to which it is subject, or (c) any statute or order, rule, regulation, writ, injunction or decree of any court, governmental authority or regulatory body to which either Seller or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary or any of its properties is subject or by which it is bound.
9. There are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or, to the best of our knowledge, threatened against Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary that, in our judgment, either in any one instance or in the aggregate, may result in any material adverse change in the business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary or in any material impairment of the right or ability of Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary to carry on its business substantially as now conducted or in any material liability on the part of Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary that would draw into question the validity of the Program Agreements, or of any action taken or to be taken in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, or that would be likely to impair materially the ability of Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary to perform under the terms of, the Program Agreements.
10. The conveyance of each Purchased Asset as and in the manner contemplated by the Program Agreements is sufficient fully to transfer to Buyer all right, title and interest of Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary thereto as owner, noteholder and mortgagee, or in the alternative, a security interest therein.
X-0
00. Xxx Xxxxxxxxxx Agreement is effective to create, in favor of the Buyer, a valid “security interest” as defined in Section 1-201(37) of the Uniform Commercial Code in all of the right, title and interest of the Seller in, to and under the Repurchase Assets, except that (a) such security interests will continue in Repurchase Assets after its sale, exchange or other disposition only to the extent provided in Section 9-315 of the Uniform Commercial Code, (b) the security interests in Repurchase Assets in which the Seller acquires rights after the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code in respect of the Seller may be limited by Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code.
12. When the Mortgage Notes are delivered to the Custodian, endorsed in blank by a duly authorized officer of Seller, the security interest referred to in Section 10 above in the Mortgage Notes will constitute a fully perfected first-priority security interest in all right, title and interest of Seller and Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary therein.
|
13. |
(a) Upon the filing of Financing Statements with the Filing Office, the security interests referred to in Section 9 above will constitute a fully perfected security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code in all right, title and interest of Seller in, to and under such Repurchase Assets, to the extent that a security interest therein can be perfected by filing under the Uniform Commercial Code. |
(b) Upon the filing of Financing Statements with the Filing Office, the security interests referred to in Section 10 above will constitute a fully perfected security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code in all right, title and interest of Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary in, to and under such Mezzanine Loans, to the extent that a security interest therein can be perfected by filing under the Uniform Commercial Code.
(c) The UCC Search Report sets forth the proper filing offices and the proper debtors necessary to identify those Persons who have on file in the jurisdictions listed on Schedule 1 financing statements covering the Repurchase Assets and the Mezzanine Loans as of the dates and times specified on Schedule 2. The UCC Search Report identifies no Person who has filed in any Filing Office a financing statement describing the Repurchase Assets prior to the effective dates of the UCC Search Report.
14. None of Seller, Guarantor or Mezzanine Loan Subsidiary is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
15. The provisions of the Control Account Agreement are effective to cause the security interest of the Buyer in the Securities Account to be a fully perfected first-priority security interest therein.
This opinion letter is made for the benefit of and can be relied on by the addressee hereof, its successors and/or assigns, and any future participant of Buyer’s interest under the Repurchase Agreement.
